111 – Eve – 2

***

“That… tongue, isn’t that the wise man?”

A few of the hesitant nobles approached me.

Among them, one of the nobles I encountered during the quest.

Baron Oswaldo greeted me first with a hollow smile.

“It’s been a while. I thought you’d come to our manor at least once more.”

“Because I’m busy like this. Is Asrien doing well?”

“hahaha. Our son? We get along very well. The wise man educated us properly, so we don’t have any accidents these days.”

The quest related to Baron Oswaldo is ‘A mad man drives a nail into his parents’ chest.’ It was a quest called

As the name of the quest suggests, Baron Oswald’s only son was a very standard dog.

So Baron Oswaldo and the Baroness were not the only ones who were worried, and just in time they asked me for help while staying in the manor.

His son hangs out with strange people, and he asks for a background investigation.

And, through that quest, he learned that Asrien, the son of Baron Oswaldo, had become friends with demon worshipers disguised as human traffickers, and after killing all the demon worshipers, he educated (dispelled) Asrien.

Um… It reminds me of old memories.

“At that time, the wise man said. Are you going to hang out with those guys again? You won’t hang out?”

“Ha ha ha… so? How’s the fort?”

“He’s such a hot-blooded guy… Although he tries to deviate from time to time. When I called the wise man, he immediately went to study.”

“That’s something to celebrate.”

“Ugh. That’s why my one and only son is like that. But thanks to the wise man, I’m glad I didn’t stray too much.”

“Actually, I felt a little sorry for the baron and the baroness for beating me so much.”

“Ugh. No. No. But… me.”

He glanced at Veronica next to me. and.

“That. The two of you are together so you look so good together. Euh ha ha ha ha ha!”

“Oh, thank you for thinking so.”

“You’re saying the obvious, but thank you.

“A couple… really look like that? Whoops. Thank you.”

“Nothing. I’m telling you the truth… But hey, Cardinal. If you don’t mind…”

He hesitated, then took out a small Divine Mark from his bosom. And bowed his head politely.

“Could you give me one blessing for my son?”

“Excuse me. This much is fine.”

With a smile, Veronica blessed the Divine Mark. Baron Oswaldo, a devout believer, was visibly delighted as it was the cardinal’s blessing and no one else’s.

Some nobles look at him with envy. And some devout aristocrats I knew somehow tried to get Veronica to bless them too.

“Sage. Please come here.”

When the queen called me, she regretted it and only licked her lips.

As Veronica and I approached, the Queen smiled bitterly.

“I didn’t know the cardinal was coming. Didn’t the church send Bishop Tyrant or Archbishop Hastin for this?”

“That’s true, but…well. It’s been like this and that.”

Veronica smiled and took my arm. The Queen, who looked at me and Veronica, smiled bitterly.

“I’ve heard many stories that the wise man and the cardinal are close. Anyway, I would like to thank you as a queen and as a mother of a child for visiting.”

“You’re welcome.”

I don’t know why you called me and talked to Veronica.

“Then I hope you enjoy the party. Oh. And the wise man.”

“Yes.”

“I believe you will keep your promise to Lucille.”

The Queen also knew that this party was an opportunity for Lucille to grow.

I heard that she is learning to dance hard for the party.

As such, it seems that Veronica is worried that she will take away Lucille’s partner position because of Veronica’s arrival.

Worrying about such useless things?

“At this party, I will do my best as the princess’s partner.”

“…”

“So please don’t worry and enjoy the party.”

I raised one hand to show my confidence. Would this be okay?

However, the queen’s expression looks confused.

“I’m strangely anxious…”

I think this pose rather instilled distrust.

After reassuring the Queen, I headed to the corner of the party. There were quite a few people who wanted to talk to me.

Starting with nobles, the daughters and wives they brought with them.

Maybe it’s because of the effect of the clothes I’m wearing, but I’m secretly popular.

But, perhaps because of Veronica, he was not able to approach him recklessly.

“Anyway, why are you wearing this?”

“I’m just wearing clothes suitable for the venue, right? You can’t come to the party wearing armor, can you?”

Of course, if something was going to happen, he would have worn the armor. But on the eve, that won’t happen.

“It is, but.”

“Then why did you come? Are all the devil worshipers’ heads broken?”

“Yeah. I’ve already cleaned it up.”

“You did it quickly. Isn’t it overkill?”

“Ummm. Not at all. But do you have anything to say to me?”

“Of course there is. Hey. I and the Marquis Lacey…”

“Hey! Sage! What are you doing there?! Let’s have a drink!!”

Read at noblemtl. com

Just then, a harsh cry was heard from behind. It was Marax.

It’s just fine.

“Hey! Marax! Long time no see! Hey~ How are you?”

“It’s me, it’s always like that. But why is the human cardinal there, laughing alone? He doesn’t even know him, so come here. Let’s have a drink.”

Veronica let out a small sigh and approached. It just went well.

“Marax. I’m trying to make a mace for Veronica…”

“Hmm? Then you want to use the forge?”

“Yeah. And I want you to help me with some materials. Can you lend me some?”

“Hmm… hold out your hand.”

Veronica tilted her head and held out her hand. It’s pure white, and it’s a pretty hand.

However, the traces of the hard times she had passed were intact in the palm of her hand.

“It’s a wonderful hand. It’s the hand of a talented, hard-working person. A person with such a hand gets what he wants somehow.”

He spoke calmly and nodded.

“Okay. If it’s a weapon for someone with hands like this, I have no choice but to use one arm.”

Marax, the most outstanding blacksmith among the dwarves, hates the use of half-middle people with the things he has made.

As such, few people get his approval, but Marax seemed to like Veronica quite a bit.

“Huh? No. I just…”

“That’s good. With Marax’s help, better things come out.”

Like me, Marax also has a disease.

If the two of us work together to make it, I wonder if an almost unique piece of equipment will come out.

If you’re going to make it anyway, shouldn’t you make it a little more usable?

“How many adult bones are there. Hey! Leo!”

“Hmm? Why?”

“Are there any saint bones left in your tribe?”

“Why did you stay?”

“That’s what you mean.”

When he heard that Marax and I were going to make mace for Veronica, Leo put down the sashimi plate and shook his head.

“If it’s not someone else’s, but the equipment of a friend of the wise man, it’s not that much trouble. In this case, how about this? The bone of Lolas, who was once called the Beast King, remains, so I’ll give it to you.”

“By the way, only beasts can process bone bones. And don’t you need the hornet queen’s wax to process them? Do you have them?”

“No.”

“Hey! Rastafa! Can I get some wax?”

The first warrior of the Hornet Queen and a master sorcerer with ultimate skills.

Rastapa, who had fought together as a companion during the quest to rescue the queen bee, put down the honey snack he was eating and came this way.

“What are you going to make?”

“A mace for my best friend Veronica.”

“Then… Sage. You are the benefactor who protected the queen and Hornet’s friend.. If you tell the queen, you will be able to obtain the finest blood-colored wax.”

“The finest blood-colored wax? If you’re going to use that, how about using the roots of the World Tree as Mace’s?”

Lorelia came over to help with a word. Give the roots of the world tree in the elven forest.

If this is done well, a weapon that is not at the unique level but will be handed down as a sacred object to the church will be made?

I looked at Veronica, and she sighed heavily, perhaps realizing that things were escalating.

“…I’ll be grateful. Really.”

what have this

“If you use the roots of the World Tree, minerals are more than just minerals…”

uh?

Are things getting bigger?

Something big is about to come out.

There is no dancing or anything at the party the night before. It’s just a matter of chatting with like-minded people for a while.

But now it was different.

“No, so. To increase the power of the finest magic…”

“Mage Raquel. Power is good, but balance is also important.”

“Count Paddeau is right. But can’t we use the Royal Blood Diamond, the treasure of the royal family, as a balance stone? As a queen, I can give you that much.”

“Why don’t you use Drake’s leather for the handle? I caught a Drake that appeared in the manor with the wise man in the past, and the Drake’s skin is still left. Give it to me…”

“You man. Wouldn’t it be much better to put the drake in inner skin and use dragon skin? And since only our Toscato estate can process it…”

Not only the sub-species, but also the bored nobles started talking about the direction of mace production with excitement.

Of course, not everyone in the party was like that, but since me, the queen, and even the nobles of the demi-humans gathered like this, the atmosphere was forced to focus on this side.

“Huh. This is perfect.”

In this way, the design blueprint was completed by gathering everyone’s strength as one.

The blueprints drawn on the large tablecloths were art in themselves.

Everyone who saw it couldn’t help but exclaim with admiration.

“This is awesome…”

“I don’t think it’ll be inferior to the warrior’s sword at all…”

The blueprint created as a result of the gathering of people with the disease ‘if only’.

“…but is this a mace?”

“Mace.

Calculated, there are 7 top-notch magics, 6 top-notch spells, and 7 top-notch spells, and just holding it will cure all kinds of illnesses, and if you’re nearby, magic and stamina will continue to recover and various buffs will be applied.

Sanctuary is automatically activated by giving a little holy power there.

In addition, through user recognition, you can cast a security spell that prevents severe people from using it, and there are various other functions, and the value as a work of art is better than any other work of art.

These were obviously Mace’s blueprints.

“…so how long do you think it will take?”

Veronica, the person who would be the owner of this mace, who had been watching silently, said a word and we all fell silent.

“Well…”

I thought about it for a while with the people who gathered to make this design, and came up with an answer.

“I’ll make it in roughly five years… evil!”

“Hyunwoo?”

With a broad smile, Veronica pinched my cheek, and everyone in the room looked embarrassed and averted their eyes.

“Ah, okay. I’ll make your own.”

“Hmm. Then, I guess we can make this a sacrifice to break the heads of those who threaten peace by the Tribal Alliance.”

This blueprint created by the collective intelligence was literally a masterpiece.

As such, it was impossible to destroy the blueprint, so the current head of the tribal federation, the queen, took the blueprint, and no one was very dissatisfied.

To complete this mace, all races must work together.

Who would be dissatisfied with being a victim of the tribal federation?

“…Why did the talk of making my own mace come all the way here?”

“Is that so?”

‘If only’ disease.

It’s scary too.

“…Thank you anyway.”

“uh?”

“Because I was thinking of making this for myself.”

Veronica, perhaps embarrassed, blushed slightly and turned her head.

What are you doing with this?

“This is not enough for you.”

How much help have I received from you so far?

“…ss. You really… ha. It’s okay. I tried to scold you, but you can’t even get angry.”

“If you endure it, you will get sick.

“…..”

– Damn!

Veronica glared at me once and then gave me a hard slap on the back.

…

My hands are very spicy.
