Chapter 155 – 35. Gathering of the Openers. (2)
“Are we old? Nice to meet you Granzo Danju.”
“It’s an honor to see you again, Danju.”
[Strength: 15] [Agility: 22] [Stamina: 48] [Intelligence: 74] [Magic power: 75]
[Genius] [Holy intellect] [Reliance] [Prudence] [Accuracy] [Desire] [Efficiency] [Sensitiveness]
Allen shook hands with Granzo and checked his status window. Stats and characteristics where the word “Truly” Comes out…. He especially paid a lot of attention to [Holy Intelligence] And [Dukdo] Characteristics.
Old Scone and Mrs. Shetlan, whom Elena had met in real life, turned their attention to Allen, who had just said goodbye to Grenzo.
“I heard a lot about you. Scones.”
It was an inspiration that felt like polishing in the mountains. The gray hair and long white beard indirectly showed that he was very old.
[Strength: 31] [Agility: 45] [Stamina: 42] [Intelligence: 66] [Magic power: 78]
[Beomjae] [Versatile] [Indomitable will] [Dukdo] [Direct] [Principle] [Through]
Great stats and traits like the fire-ghost Granzo this time too. But the most surprising thing is that he is [Beomjae].
Not [Genius], Not even [Youngjae], But [Beomjae] Who [Dukdo]? … Allen had been [Guild Master] For over ten years, but he had never seen anything like it before. He couldn’t even imagine how much effort the old man must have put in to get to this position.
“Nice to meet you.”
“Elena, she’s fine, I can see why she wants to die. Her face is very tall!”
Then, the red-haired priest’s neck was burning red. Allen Danju just laughed happilyhaha.
…… And then…….
The moment Allen moved on to the next opponent, there was a chilling feeling in his chest. It’s like she’s revealing her lungs to the other person, that kind of feeling.
There was the gaze of a middle-aged lady. Appears to be around the early 40’s. …… However, thanks to mana, aging would have slowed down a lot, so it was more likely than that.
Her beauty, which must have touched a man’s heart when she was young, still hasn’t faded. In the slightly sharpened wrinkles, a glimpse of her long, undulating years could be seen.
“It’s Shetlan.”
This time, the back of the hand, not a handshake…. Judging from his words and actions and his outfit, he seemed like a nobleman of high rank.
“This is Allen Danju.”
Allen gently held the lady’s hand like a gentleman and lightly kissed the back of her hand. At the same time she looked at her status window.
[Strength: 7] [Agility: 12] [Stamina: 38] [Intelligence: 82] [Magic power: 79]
[Genius] [Inspiration of all things] [Dukdo] [Longevity] [Awareness] [Stubbornness] [Self-love] [Tenderness] [Greed] [Super sensitive]
She heard that she used spirit magic on Elena and expected it, but as expected, she had the [Inspiration of all things] Stuck in her talent window. It is a characteristic that only a very small number of spiritists can express. There is a saying that if you have this trait, you must recruit her unconditionally, so she was the king of efficiency. Spirit magic has a very good balance of offense and offense, so it’s a great help for mercenary development. … Of course, it’s one of the rarer high-tier traits like [Deukdo].
… However, Allen was not the only one who was surprised by this encounter.
Among them, the one who received a particularly fresh shock was Lady Shetlan.
…… This man doesn’t feel anything…… !
As she reached the pinnacle of her spirit art, and at the same time realizing the truth of all things, she gained the ability to sense the intentions of her opponents, albeit simply. It wasn’t a magical effect, so it didn’t matter whether there was a lot of mana or less. And the opponent is obviously an ordinary human who doesn’t even know the letter ‘Ma’ in Mana. …… However, she was as dark as if blocked by a wall.
It was the first time this had happened to her, and Shetlan couldn’t help but panic inside.
… This woman seems to be able to read my thoughts even slightly.
Fortunately, he was not read, and the opponent was. At least the status window proved to be superior to her abilities.
To be honest, Allen couldn’t help but be a bit surprised. There’s nothing good about reading his thoughts….
After all, he has to look like a normal human being. …… However, in terms of not being able to read my thoughts, I don’t know if it’s a little far from normal.
Indeed, the gathering of those who opened the door—-.
There were none who were not extraordinary. Compared to those three, the parrot master is shabby. Of course, as time went on, she would grow just as much as they did, but she was still a new baby.
The reception itself was nothing special. It’s all about having a simple conversation, eating, and having a tea time. …… There were often heated discussions about the realm of magic that Allen couldn’t understand, but other than that, it felt like a small social gathering.
And Allen and Elena got up before it was too late. Grenzo even called for a carriage to send them safely back to their lodgings.
“Today was fun.”
“Thank you for the invitation. Then, let’s go in.”
“Okay. Go carefully.”
They parted after shaking hands goodbye to each other. The three, who sent the two men and women away first, did not part right away and kept their place for a while.
There was a strange silence in the drawing room where the two disappeared. The two men seem to want to hear the story of the noble lady Shetlan first.
“What do you think?”
Since opening the Mana Gate, Shetlan felt the word frustration for the first time.
“I didn’t feel it at all. This is the first time ever. …… Definitely not normal.”
“What? My mama who likes to peek, didn’t you feel anything?”
It is surprising that he blocked the lady’s gaze, which even the old Scone couldn’t avoid.
On the one hand, the fire-ghost Granzo looked surprised, and then said, “That’s right.”
“Did I tell you? Not a normal guy There’s something there, for sure.”
The three were convinced that Allen Danzu had some special ability that they did not know about. At the same time, a strange feeling of uneasiness rises.
“Is it okay if I leave you alone? If the successor is adversely affected…….”
Scone asked anxiously, and Shetlan shook his head resolutely.
“That’s fine. Because he is just in love.”
The foot of that loyalty is true love. Even Shetlan, who had a sneak peek at it, felt his heart thump.
“And, Elena is no fool either. He is also an opener like us. He’s a kid who knows how to make judgments. … Whatever decision you make, you must respect it. We are comrades.”
“…… Okay. Right.”
Granzo and Scone agreed with Shetlan.
“Anyway, he didn’t seem like a bad person. It feels right.”
“Didn’t you fall for your face too?”
Then her lady snorted at her as if she were dumbfounded.
“… Hey, inspiration. How old am I, what can I say to a kid….”
Old Scone only giggled contemptuously.
The fire-ghost, Granzo, fiddled with the teacup and fell into deep thought.
After realizing that he, too, was not an ordinary person, Allen Danju, she did a background investigation on him.
Defeat the Rift Warlock.
The activity of the mine dungeon.
War with the Necromancers of the West.
Natasha’s demon disease treatment.
Siren Crisis resolved.
Destroy the Gates of the Spirit World.
The performance of the Southern Expedition.
Cure for demon disease of northern tigers.
Defeat the worst thieves, Martolo-thieves.
And, this time, until the Seongguk situation was resolved.
Who would believe that all of this happened in just 3 years?
Even most of them are not simply solved, but literally the best level of performance.
…… Honestly, it makes no sense…….
However, all of this has already been accomplished by Allen-Mercenary Corps. That’s why it’s even more absurd for Granzo.
It is safe to say that his ability as a sophomore was the best across the continent. Even Viola and Elizabeth surpassed her talent-seeking eyes. … Can’t even feel Shetlan’s thoughts there?
… He was a difficult person to judge as a grenzo. What’s even more frightening is that even in the face of such tremendous activity, rumors about him are pretty quiet.
No, maybe even that was intentionally targeted by Allen Danju. Originally, the higher the fame, the more enemies there are. He knows that too and is quietly thinking about it until the right time comes. Under the protection of the viola… !
This was not the depth of a man in his early twenties. He was doing everything that was difficult for even a seasoned sobriety to do. Even a powerless human… !
Grenzo is a mage, but he was also a mercenary master who led a huge mercenary corps. If a change in the mercenary world’s crust is certain, he must prepare a response.
Should I hold back? … Or cooperate? … Embrace?
I thought I would be able to decide it right away with this meeting, but it felt like I was falling into a labyrinth.
Of course, as long as the Allen-mercenary corps did not invade the territory of Grenzo-mercenary corps, there was no need to keep him in check. Moreover, the opponent is a comrade’s mercenary group. It’s not possible to cooperate, but it’s not courteous to comrades to destroy it by holding it in check. …… However, isn’t it also a bit out of shape to cooperate with the mercenary group protected by the 10 rivers that are considered to be under one step?
Also, it would be nice to have an embrace.
If Elena doesn’t come over, shouldn’t it be possible to seduce Allen Danju!
So, after breaking up her banquet, Grenzo walked over to her daughter’s room and had a private conversation with her while she was engrossed in her magic training until late at night.
Unlike her unmarried Geomje, the fire ghost saw two children from her two wives, a son and a daughter each. Among them, her eldest daughter, Jeanne, had grown up and was active as a second-tier wizard of the Grenjo Mercenary Corps. In particular, she resembles her beautiful mother, and her beauty is also rumored in the capital.
Jeanne, who has a strong desire for achievement and success, accepted her father’s proposal right away.
She was full of self-confidence, both in her own talent and in her skills. … In fact, she accepted, but she had no intention of being held captive by her own men. Rather, she intended to get her hands on him and control him.
The next day, as soon as the sun came up, Roseanne headed to the inn where the Allen-Mercenary Corps was staying.
…… And, Roseanne was spurned by Allen Danju before she could even speak.
