Chapter 44 (1/2)

Chapter 4 And so their story begins (4)

…What’s this?

The Sword Saint see a boy that deserves to be smacked in the face She then looked like she was about to hit him… but then she didn’t

-Ur alive?

[…No idea]

-How lucky

I tried to slowlythe conflicted Sword Saint

“Take this”

A throeapon?! hat I thought, but it was just an envelope Hmm, the paper used on it looks pretty expensive

“What’s this?”

The Sword Saint takes a look atthe chills fro atfor some reason!

The first thing that came into my eyes when I opened the envelope was a needlessly fancy font that seemed somewhat familiar to me

Now, let’s read

Congrats!

Congratulations for you losing your job!

Why did you choose such an unstable job in the first place?

But don’t worry, the job Karuan is extre for you to take it!

So just come here quietly, yeah? Before I chain you and put you to work!

It’s from my last boss

…Hohoho, wtf?

I thought I was being secretive enough, but looks like I got found out She even knows that I lost my job Oh, who is this boss, you ask? Well, if I were to describe her, she is a very powerful, and wise princess of the empire, who the emperor loves to no end

That was actually a lie!

This da personality Her guts of steel allows her to get into an argument with the Sword Saint over there, her extreme talent allows her to process the countless tasks that the empire handles every day, and her dirty personality allows her to hand over those tasks to her subordinates to show them true hell

Well, the job Karuan is indeed very stable I mean, it is a job in the empire, after all If a job in the palace wasn’t stable, where else would you work?! But that’s it It may be stable, but it’s extremely tiresome

Countless geniuses are produced in the lands of the eeniuses all do whatever they can to work in the imperial palace Those who landed a job in the imperial palace work frantically to advance to the top Those that are already at the top? They work frantically do not go down

Working frantically does indeed bring profits occasionally, but… the way these geniuses work is truly dirty

Poison, assassination, bullying… the list just goes on and on

To give an exaanization infiltrated the iendary ot found out, and died 25 died in a political battle 50 sided with the wrong political party, and died for treason

And after counting deaths by assassination and poison and the likes, only 17 came back…

As for that legendary metal Mistein, it was said that the infamous thief known as Acleá stole it… that’s what everyone thinks, but in reality, I split it with the princess and the dwarves by 3:2:5 I was supposed to take 3, and the princess was supposed to take 4, but the dwarves took a part fro the metal

And lo, the weapon that was forged out of my 2 and the dwarves’ 5 was the metal bat

Well, let’s talk more about that some other time… in any case, the imperial palace is unfit for a huht like the place, but for an old man like me, I cannot live in that hellish environment!

The iet all sorts of privileges if you beco, but it is also a place where you beco! I don’t want to be a slave, dae!
