Chapter 125 – 29. Northern Territory. (One)
Pesiyal-The mercenary corps became a new top 10, but there was no significant change in the perception of the mercenary world. The 10th Dagon-mercenary corps, which were expelled anyway, did not have much influence in the mercenary world because they wandered around the outskirts doing all sorts of illegal things.
The Viola-Mercenary Corps and the Allen-Mercenary Corps, which produced such bland results, left the capital in about 15 days and headed back to Vermandois.
The members of the crew, who had toured the capital, had a sad look on their faces. In particular, the furry Geese and the youngest Cory, who wandered around the entertainment district all day, looked very sad. The price is similar to Vermandois and the capital, but the quality and quantity of the capital is much better.
Even the blind saintess seemed to have thoroughly enjoyed her outing in the capital, and her body was covered with more jewelry than before. If anyone who didn’t know her saw it, a hundred and one hundred would think she was a corrupt priest.
Traveling to the capital was a rewarding journey for Allen as well. She took her eyes moderately, had a bit of a connection with the sword emperor, and got to know the general situation of the capital….
The return road to Vermandois was smooth. In the first place, it is normal that there are no crazy people who want to attack the collar with the emblem of the Viola-Mercenary Corps, which is the top 10. Certainly, in that respect, the journey with the top 10 was very comfortable. Even if there was a surprise attack, the top 10 were not weak enough to suffer from it.
So they arrived in Vermandois in another month and ten days. Return after almost three and a half months.
Of course, the power of the 10 powers controlling Vermandois was strong, and there were no great ones who dared to challenge their authority despite their absence. … In fact, even if it is absent, it cannot be regarded as complete absence. It was because the forces of the 2nd and 3rd armies, including Budanju, were already there.
Anyway, by returning safely to Vermandois, the outing to the capital was successfully ended.
Allen immediately opened a street office to make up for her losses. He couldn’t work for more than three months and spent money, so as a money ghost, he couldn’t stand it…. Now he was ready to do anything, be it slavery or anything, anything that would give him money.
And on the very day the office was opened, a call came from Viola’s office. As expected of a worker, it seems that Danju, the viola, went straight to the office the day after his return, just like Allen.
When Allen entered the sober room, he was greeted by the viola sober, who was frantically handling the important affairs that had piled up during his absence. Dry lips that hadn’t even been covered with rouge looked more dehydrated today.
“Ah, you’re right here. You’re busy, but didn’t you call me?”
“No. It was just flying flies.”
“It is a bit urgent. Just in time, the right person gave Allen Dan….”
“… I mean?”
Allen wondered a little, whether he had anything to be called the right person. Danju the viola slid open a drawer, placed a piece of paper on top of his desk, and pushed it towards him.
“From the northern region, people came. They said it’s been about four days since they came to Vermandois.”
He politely accepted the paper she gave her. And as soon as she read it, she immediately understood why she called him the right person.
Content related to the ‘Devil’s Disease’–.
Even the person with the demonic disease was a person Allen knew well. He’s not even a top 10, but he’s quite famous in the mercenary world. He is a very brave mercenary lord called the Tiger of the North.
Ingmar Garbo.
A name character that Allen did not expect at all, like a demonic disease that does not discriminate time, place, and person.
Apparently, the northern part was barren of magic, so they didn’t know how to solve the demon disease at all, so they hurriedly dispatched people to various places.
That’s exactly what came to Allen’s ears, who had a precedent for curing demonic diseases.
“The cases are said to be sufficient.”
Of course, in the north, which is said to be the poorest of the four regions in the east, west, south, and north, it would be unreasonable to expect thousands of gold coins from Markas before, but if you are an Ingmar-Mercenary Corps, you will surely be able to receive a considerable reward. Allen has the confidence to pull that off as well. Northerners are proud fools.
“In Vermandois, there is no better person than you when it comes to demon disease. … How are you, do you have any thoughts? Oh, I’m not forcing you. Because the choice is up to you.”
Then Allen grinned.
“You know I won’t say no.”
Hearing that, the viola Danju smiled slightly. She looks a bit embarrassed.
“…… I want to burden you with a difficult request again.”
“No, thanks. I also need some money. Have you been playing a lot? The kids have to work hard now too.”
“Thank you if you think so. … Still, northerners are loyal. If you heal the demon disease, I will not forget that grace.”
Allen just smiled.
Unfortunately, the loyalty that the northerners shouted for did not work for Allen from the south. For him, mercenaries are money, not loyalty.
Anyway, Allen received the papers and withdrew. Viola Danju said that he would soon send a representative from the north to his hideout.
Almost immediately after he entered the inn building, a young man from the north arrived at the hideout, dressed in a fluffy fur coat.
“My name is Aidar Skarsgard.”
“Nice to meet you. Allen Danju.”
The two sat down at the negotiating table with a light handshake.
Allen did not want to repeat what he had already heard. Let’s skip that and get straight to the point.
“I have already heard the rough story. However, whether or not she can cure the devil’s disease, you will have to check for yourself to know.”
“Then let’s go together.”
When Allen didn’t answer quickly and took a moment, Aidar, a northern youth, also quickly noticed the other person’s thoughts.
“I will pay you well enough.”
“It is difficult to simply say that. I’m also the one who leads a mercenary group, wouldn’t it be a bit difficult to move only hoping for a vague reward?”
“How much do you want?”
“First, leave the treatment, and guarantee at least eight hundred gold coins during the time of coming and going.”
Eight hundred gold coins, of course, made Aida jump up.
“No matter how hard you hold the hilt, that’s too much! Eight hundred gold coins. It’s just a simple coming and going!”
However, Allen did not back down an inch.
“Even the time we come and go is well over two months. Our mercenaries can’t just eat the ground, can we? At the very least, you should be able to cover your current employment expenses. … Aren’t you also a mercenary? Then I think you know what’s going on.”
Of course, that’s true, but it’s the first time I’ve ever asked you to pay 800 gold coins for a simple companion.
“If you don’t like it, don’t. Not forcing This is a negotiation, not a request. After all, there must be many other talented people besides me.”
Allen looked relaxed. She actually did and she did. She honestly said she had a lot of work to do besides this one. She has no particular reason to go all the way to the North. It’s surprising that Ingmar Danju has a demonic disease, but that doesn’t have anything to do with Allen.
However, the northern youth had already heard from the viola master that Allen had a precedent of curing demonic diseases, so he did not want to miss this opportunity.
“Is your sobriety’s life compared to eight hundred gold coins?”
Those words were decisive. The northern youth did not want to lose the beloved Danju to the devil’s disease.
Compared to Danju’s life, 800 gold coins were a pittance.
“…… Good. Don’t do that However, since the Lord said thathehealed the devil, I will believe it. If you heal my sophomore, I’ll give you even twice as much.”
“Good idea. I am still an expert in this field.”
“However, time is running out. You don’t have much time left.”
“Okay. Hurry up if you can. It takes two days though. We also just arrived yesterday from the capital.”
Aidar, a young northern man, wanted to leave right away, but he considered the circumstances of the other party.
“All right. Then, in two days, let’s leave early in the morning. …… It will probably be a bit of an arduous forced march, but please bear that in mind.”
“I’ll take into consideration the line that doesn’t become too much.”
Thus, the two concluded their negotiations safely.
Eight hundred gold coins as an accompanying fee. After arriving there and examining the situation, the treatment fee is negotiated again.
To be honest, it was a performance that exceeded expectations for a poor northern country. That must mean that Ingmar Danju’s situation is urgent. Well, no matter how strong and valiant Ingmar is, he will be helpless against demon disease.
In a way, he was also a master of ignoring magic. Because the northerners revered radish too much and avoided magic.
…… North is the first again.
An area where you can see snow properly on the continent. And a place where ice flowers that do not wither exist.
Allen gently suppressed this strange excitement welling up in her chest.
