Chapter 208 – 46. Lecture 10. (2)
Having achieved all of his goals his, Allen slowly prepared to return to Vermandois. Even if I stayed in the capital, there was nothing more I could do. … Of course, talking about business is always welcome to him, but since everyone in the top 10 has already settled down, his interest in his in the business side has waned.
That’s why I didn’t even snoop around to see if there was anything dripping in the business along the way with the imperial palace. Rather, I would be more wary of losing face.
Allen, who tends to worry a lot, couldn’t hang out here because of the piled up work in Vermandois. In the end, he made the round of ten and was on his way back to Vermandois just three days later.
Of course, there were many small things before his return.
Like Agnes, who was offered a recruit, he turned it down as if she was in the top 10 and had nothing to see.
When the Prophet Allois said that a gift would soon go to Vermand-Dois, he said to himself, ‘The gift is actually me, honey ㅡ ♥’ and is planning a strange trick.
The beauty of the north, Axillary Marie, came to visit Allen, drunk with her alcohol, and she ran into her drunkenness her, arguing about where she didn’t like herself.
Arlen returned to Vermandois after a month or so after leaving the capital.
In addition, he suffered for several days from all kinds of welcome greetings and gifts from the mercenary masters who said that he was welcome to the top 10. Of course, it was impossible to send them away coldly, who had come to congratulate them on a good event, so Allen accepted all the congratulations one by one. Then he eventually got sick and lay down sick for a day. ……… In fact, wouldn’t it have been decisive that he had a violent night with Danju the viola on the day he returned?
Anyway.
Allen was finally able to proudly engrave the sign of the 10th on the signboard of the building that became his hideout.
Round 10, Allen-Mercenaries—-!
In terms of her life her, she did n’t change much whether she was in the 10th or not, but her status her was the difference between heaven and earth. He is now in the position of a ruler, not a subject.
The 10th round put a lot of mulberry on the shoulders of not only Danju, but also the members. When we really reached the top 10 that we had been dreaming of, no one wanted to transfer. For mercenaries, level 10 is the last settlement.
Allen doesn’t intend to organize his roster right now, but he’d better classify non-mercenaries beforehand. Now that he has reached the top 10, the initiative is unconditionally in him.
…… Then one day.
A letter came by express delivery to Allen Danju. To be precise, to Charlotte Danju…. In his hometown his, Berher in the South.
– Earl Abrehim, passed away.
It was news that Earl Abrehim, who was 84 years old this year, had passed away from old age.
Just like that, Charlotte-Mercenaries are on a transport mission. Allen kept the letter, and he delivered it to Charlotte Danjou, who returned a week later.
Oh
Before she could finish her heartfelt congratulations to Allen, who was finally in the top 10, she received the shocking news and ended up in tears. … For she was her grandfather her, who was especially dear to her.
“I think we should go.”
“Of course it should.”
Allen was also a little worried. It’s not that the person I never interacted with died, and the benevolent lord of the castle, whom I often saw, passed away.
So he decided to accompany her. Her comments made her very grateful for the decision.
It wasn’t anyone else, it was a companion of 10 lectures. There was no way that she, who was terribly rolling on this rough mercenary floor, did not know the weight of her shoulder straps on her.
“Thank you very much.”
“I am also someone who has lived under him for twenty years. Because it is polite to express condolences. You don’t have to worry too much.”
“… Yes… !”
After returning to Vermandois, after 15 days, they started their journey to the south again.
The treatment of Allen, who is newly ranked in the top 10, has really changed noticeably. Especially in the case of small towns, there were not a few cases where the lord of the castle invited him directly. There’s nothing wrong with having a relationship with the top 10 of the mercenary world.
Since he was nicknamed the money ghost, it was a bonus that he brought one leather bag full of gold coins.
– Please add it as travel expenses on the way.
Of course, unless Allen was going to eat and get sick, he didn’t hesitate to take the money the other person gave him.
Since he has the nickname of a money ghost anyway, wouldn’t it be reasonable for him to thoroughly act like a money ghost?
It took a month and a week to get to Berher in the south like that. Because it was a bit rushed.
If there was a road that directly connects the southern and central parts, it wouldn’t have taken this long, but the canyon road in the middle of the mountain range was not properly drilled yet, so I couldn’t use it. … If that road is cleared, it will undoubtedly be a great innovation.
In fact, Allen had envisioned it in his head a long time ago. Of course, breaking through the gorge is far beyond the level of simply doing a mission, so it was a plan that I put off thinking about again after reaching the 10th river. …… And now he’s in the top 10. Now is the time to bring out those old plans that have been tucked away in drawers.
Arriving at Berher, Allen’s group headed straight for the count’s castle. Of course, it had already been three months since the Count passed away.
The position of the lord of the castle has already been taken over by Charlotte’s father, the later Earl of Abrehim. Compared to the previous generation, the virtue and reputation were not as high, but the new count was still managing Bercher well.
The two men and women sent their final condolences in front of the tomb of the former count who had passed away in the inner sanctum.
“Thank you for coming this far.”
“No. Of course you should come. It is my hometown.”
“Congratulations on becoming the top 10. I honestly never imagined that a top 10 would be born in Berher. Because the South doesn’t have a deep connection with the 10 rivers.”
“Berher raised them well.”
Seongju gave Allen-Mercenary Corps a mansion, saying that it was a mansion for a distinguished guest. And even extreme hospitality.
The Count had lunch with Allen and Charlotte, and even brought up the idea that the two had almost become engaged. …… With the gaze of longing for something.
“Oh, Father, that… !”
When the story came up, her southern country boy became restless at Allen’s notice. It is the past she wants to forget the most and she hides.
“Haha. And then it grows.”
Allen also heard an old story that could be called a memory with a laugh. … Now I can talk about it with a real smile.
“If you have any ideas, feel free to tell me. I am unconditionally in favor.”
“Father…… !”
Charlotte, whose face was red as if about to explode, only rolled her feet in tears. …… In the past, I wouldn’t have cared about whether he said such things or not, but now I have no choice but to go crazy when he mentions such an embarrassing history to him, who has completely taken over my heart and has come to worship him. It seems that all the good feelings that I have built up so far have collapsed here….
After lunch like that, Allen finally left the Countess.
Round 10, Allen, the money ghost, has arrived… !
Rumors that Allen Dwise Pomwell, from Berher, has already made it to the top 10 have spread throughout the South.
A monumental great man has finally appeared in the South, which has not been able to produce a top 10 for decades, so of course there can be no uproar. Not even in the big city, but in the middle city of Berher—!
As Allen walked down the street, people poured out. That person is the 10th river. He is the youngest son of the Pomwell Merchant.
There were no shouts or cheers. People just watched as if they were watching a strange animal. The furry Geese escorting him also shrugged.
He walked down the familiar streets still etched in his memory, and finally arrived in front of the building at the top of Pomwell.
The inside of the top is already in an uproar.
The son who went out to become a great mercenary really showed up as a top 10—-.
Of course, this is not the first visit, but the feeling between then and now was truly vast.
The money ghost, Allen Danju, confidently entered the building and headed straight for his father’s office.
The old secretary of the upper house of Pomwell was quite surprised to see Allen appearing waving a red cloak that was characterized by a golden color.
“Master, Master Allen has arrived.”
Beyond the door, the answer came after a while.
– Please come in.
The old secretary politely opened the door. Allen walked through the open door and entered her office with a commanding stride.
Baron Pomwell, who had been examining the papers, showing a grayer crown than before, slowly raised his head as the door closed.
……… The nerdy youngest who barely knew how to be a girl came back as one of the top 10 greats on the continent.
The day came when Baron Gireko heard his name of her.
To be honest, I didn’t expect this much at all. Because the father her knew her son her better than anyone else. … In the first place, the youngest was a smaller vessel than her eldest son.
However, the son shattered his expectations his proudly. And he came back proudly winning the 10th.
As if you became a different person. Completely changed.
“I am back. Father.”
A faint smile appeared on the lips of the baron, who had been watching her youngest child expressionlessly.
… It wasn’t like that just because it became the top 10.
Because he saw the desperate extreme of human victory.
The Baron is wrong.
For the first time in his life, he admitted he was wrong.
He opened the drawer and put something down on the desk.
Three gold coins.
…… I have never been able to find the owner.
“Now, take it.”
And the three gold coins, at this moment, were finally the time to return to their owners.
Allen’s expression was astonished.
… The Baron didn’t know at the time that he would still remember it.
“It’s yours now.”
Allen, her throat her felt hot.
He moved forward slowly, very slowly, and grabbed the three gold coins his father had handed him.
Son, after 7 years,
I received a bribe charge.
