“Sign here on the dotted line”

“Is h?”

“Yeah that’s fine, the contract mostly just reacts to your mana and not your actual name”

Roland wrote his naed to get the Gnoree to keep his true identity a secret He also didn’t mention that he was froh was the one stating that the gnome couldn't undersell his work

There was ainto account what the scrolls were selling in the auction Any other iteotiated further but he didn't feel like the gno to rip him off, at least not too much he still wanted to make a profit

He wouldn’t be surprised if they knew that, how far the gnomes identification skill was able to peek was unknown He himself could only use it on certain iteeneral name He couldn’t analyze people well either, if he looked at Zilyana the only info he got was that she was a ‘Sun Elf’

This was the default elven race around here, besides Sun Elves there were also Moon Elves that were si too dark elves from most stories For one reason or another, these two races didn’t get along with each other

The woman rolled up the contract after it was finalized He had finally accepted the offer and his life as a contract worker had begun Luckily he didn’t really have to make that many scrolls and should be able to do his research as well He was even going to receive a personal assistant if he did well

“We weren’t really using this one, that’s why it’s a bit dirty…”

Zilyana said while opening the door and showing Roland in There wasn’twith a wooden table and so lady would come soon and some furniture would be carried over as well

“Here is the key, don’t lose it”

He was handed the key, he would be able to coh the nights The Gnoer knew that some craftsmen liked to work hard, a bed would be supplied for hi from the inn here He didn’t need to pay for rent but the air was kind of stale

“You can start working toic E sis fro her hands to her hips while looking at Roland He just looked back with narrowed eyes while replying

“Alright…”
