Chapter 35: Mine Development 4

“Young lord! Young Lord?! Ah, Young Lord?!”

Luke, who was reading the 3 circle magic spell he borrowed from Mute, frowned when Philip suddenly started bothering him.

“What is it, Sir Philip? Why are you whining like a kid?”

“How can I not whine? When will you keep your promise about getting me a Gigant?”

Luke made a promise to Philip at the Gigant arena.

He told Philip that if he won over the Count Monarch’s Gigant, then he would buy Philip a new Gigant.

Encouraged with those words, Philip had won the match, but Luke became so busy with other stuff that he wasn’t able to keep his promise.

After all, Philip, who was tired of waiting, was trying to get his wishes completed in that way.

“You can’t be doing things like this. What would people say if they find out that the mighty warrior, a descendant of Rakan, didn’t keep his promise? I swear, they will point fingers at you.”

‘Should I just turn this brat into a death knight?’

But rather than a stupid Death Knight, a living expert who spouts nonsense was much more useful.

On the other hand, Luke had made up his mind to spy on Veritas Magic Tower and the changes that happened there for the last 500 years.

“Okay. Since I made a promise, let’s buy a Gigant.”

“Ahh?!”

Philip hurried and was ready to go out with Luke.

But when Sir Roger came after hearing the news.

“Young Lord, are you going to buy a Gigant?”

“Philip wanted to.”

At those words, Philip began to become scared of Roger.

It was as if he had light in his eyes; he turned over to Luke and said,

“Then, I will go with you.”

“The knight general will come?”

“Yes, since the monsters are very active these days, it isn’t easy to go out without an escort knight. So, I’d rather go myself.”

Roger said that and shot an ugly look at Philip.

“Also, I know quite a lot about Gigants. If you take Philip with you, you will surely buy a defective Gigant that would just become bothersome in the future and have poor performance.”

“No, no matter how you see me as a human…”

A small whine escaped from Philip’s mouth, but he soon stopped when he saw Roger clenching his fist.

After seeing that, Luke decided to take Roger with him too.

Knowing that not buying a Gigant was an option too.

It would be best to just buy it to shut Philip’s mouth.

Luke together with Roger and Philip traveled north.
