Rye said.
“The seance was ruined, and I haven’t gotten any money, but it doesn’t affect me. He’ll forget my face tomorrow.”
“Do you need more pay?”
“If you give it to me, I won’t decline it.”
“Her Grace must have given you enough.”
Even with a puzzled face, Freil took out a pocket of silver coins from his arms and gave it to Rye.
Rye took it, put it in his inner pocket, and looked satisfied.
“It’s important to get extra income.”

The second time Artizea visited Rye was about fifteen days before the wedding.
[What brings you to such a place when a precious marriage will be taking place soon?]
Rye asked, complaining.
[You have done very well the last time.]
[If you were dissatisfied with that, my throat would have fallen already.]
[Are you afraid to live?]
Rye shook his head.
But she wasn’t that offended.
Artizea has clearly indicated that she was his superior, but never cared about his disrespect. She was comfortable with that attitude.

And not so long ago, his sister contacted him again. It was said that an old doctor who had come from the capital to heal the youngest settled in the village.
The doctor said he hired her to be a nurse. His other siblings and village children were also taught letters and numbers for free.
As the youngest’s treatment expenses were reduced, there was room in his house. His mother also said that she started getting treatment for her wrist that’s always been sore.
He was honestly grateful. Instead of just throwing a large sum of money to take care of his own life, she was constantly taking care of his family so that they would not notice it.
Even if she gave 10,000 gold at a time, his family will not be able to keep it well.
He was worried about what kind of work she made him do.
Artizea said as if she had read that thought.
[If you die, you don’t have to worry because your family will be taken care of forever.]
[Oh my. Have you already pawned someone else’s life?]

[I have no intention of asking for your life yet.]
Artizea smiled faintly.
[I need a young man who has a good manner of speaking, can respond on his toes, has impeccable memory, shameless, and has an inconspicuous appearance. Of course, a heavy mouth is a necessary condition.]
[With exception to my appearance, I meet those conditions. I’m a little handsome… ]
Rye replied, searching the connections in his head for a moment.
Artizea snorted at the retort about his appearance.
[I chose you, including your appearance.]
And what she asked him to do was to become a necromancer.
[It’s about getting into the center of the social world. I’m sure you’ll get a pretty good extra income. But you shouldn’t be shaken or excited. Don’t forget that approaching your goal is the number one priority.]

Rye told Keyshore that he gathered rumors of social affairs and told them in a plausible package.
But, in fact, all of the information he spoke of came from Artizea’s hands.
Artizea collected useful information from the information she remembered in advance and compiled them into a small booklet. And she left it to Freil.
It wasn’t important information. It was just simple information that would be interesting and forgotten in the social world.
Most of them were things such as Viscount Moe having an affair, or where the jeweled fan that Viscountess Moe lost would be found.
Then he will be esteemed as a remarkable fortune teller at the time.
On the other hand, when it comes to important topics, there will be more attention from people as insignificant as Keyshore.
To raise interest and credibility, Artizea created a magic circle.
The magic circle with the word “Light” written on it was elegant to look at because of the ancient characters.

However, the structure was very simple. When activated by a spell, a dazzling light is emitted for about 15 seconds and turns off automatically.
Because it was such small magic, there was no need for human sacrifice. The life force from freshly shed blood was enough.
Of course, Rye complained while memorizing difficult ancient scripts.
[If I get caught in the temple by mistake, I’ll be the one in trouble.]
[So you have to pretend to be a scammer.]
Necromancy and ancient magic are all prohibited in temples. If caught, they will be burned.
However, there was always someone interested in divination, calling ghosts, or predicting through constellations. There have always been scammers.
The temple couldn’t be interested in these little things. Wouldn’t it be more demeaning to be tricked by a scammer that acted like a real wizard?
[If you are caught as a scammer, I will get you out with money, so don’t worry.]

[Really, I’m uneasy.]
[If you’re uneasy, can’t you just use it when it’s absolutely necessary?]
Artizea said that, but Rye couldn’t.
At first he didn’t do it because he hated bleeding.
However, it changed as the atmosphere rose and invitations from noble families began to come.
Without realizing, his mouth fluttered magic really well and he used it to heighten mystery.
Thanks to that, his fingers, arms, and other parts were full of wounds.
Rye finally understood why Artizea was looking for someone who could approach the goal without getting too excited.
He became so popular that he was invited to decent homes such as the Keyshore Mansion. As a result, even he got excited over the prospect of money despite his firm goal.

If he were a normal man, he were more likely to forget his original goal and focus on the interests of the social world, and run wild.
