237 235 Wheres Garth? (2/2)

”Not sure, but on the day Lord Garth's footsteps disappear, a carriage departing from a separate residence of the Marquis Ashtoner family is leaving Barbora”

”Were you in that carriage?

”It's as likely as it sounds.”

Speaking of the Marquis Ashtoner family, Serdio's parents died by the curse of God. The nobleman who ordered my son to look for the divine sword took Garth... Marquis Ashtoner doesn't have a very good image, does he?

”Is Garth safe?

”I think you're fine there, huh? That's why I'm expecting that arm. I'd rather be welcomed.”

Is that right? Whether you're in a bad mood or injured, the efficiency of your job will be diminished. It's not necessarily like brainwashing or losing your blacksmith knowledge or losing your blacksmith arm.

To give Garth a full job, it's a minimum condition to be satisfied with five bodies. Even if I blackmail you for some reason, I don't know if I'll listen to you.

”More importantly, Lord Garth has earned the title of Blacksmith Emeritus of the Kingdom of Kranzel. That is a title given only to persons recognized by the King. If you impersonally imitate that person, you could be questioned for treason against the country.”

”Is there any chance you can seal your mouth?

”No. Even if you seal your mouth, if the footsteps of someone like Lord Garth are interrupted for a long time, the country begins to look for them with its main hips. Even if we did a full cover-up, we don't know if we can hide it. If we could, we'd lose everything, right? No fool would risk that.”

Still, when you say aristocracy, that's the kind of image you're going to be fine with doing too stupid.

”More importantly, Lord Garth's arm, said to be closest to a divine blacksmith, is more precious than 10,000 gold. You won't be guilty of the fool you lose.”

Well, maybe Legs is right. Besides, I thought we were forced to take him by our own imagination, but for the minute I read the letter, he just forced me to ask for it, and it didn't feel like I was going to force him.

I'm purposefully telling you to come at auction time, and I guess if you go to King's Capital by then, you'll hear from me. Conversely, I can't move because I don't even know where I am that far.

”Later, I have a little information about the Marquis Ashtoner family”

”Like what?”

”Hi, I hear your subordinate has made some kind of case. I don't know the details, but I'm talking about a country visit to Marquis Ashtoner's apartment in this town soon.”

I guess he still got some suspicion from the country about Sergio. What does that have to do with anything?

Too little information, I'm not sure.

”And then... they sent their knights to the plains of the Demon Wolf. Well, before they got there, they destroyed it in the depleted woods, and only a few of them fled back.”

”The Devil Wolf Plains? The forest of depletion? Why?”

”I just couldn't find out that far. Besides, he hired an adventurer afterwards to re-search the Devil Wolf's Plains.”

You mean you're pretty obsessed. But it's a demonic realm with a confirmed Rank B Warcraft? I don't think I can find an adventurer to ask for it.

”After all, it was the lower adventurers who received the request, so they didn't achieve much.”

Apparently, he didn't want to take care of this request either, and he didn't give the Marquis his name too much, nor did he make it a nomination request or anything like that.

”That's all the information. I'm sorry I couldn't get a big story together.”

”It was valuable information”

I was sure Garth was safe. And I also found out that the Marquis Ashtoner family had something to do with it. This would be a very large piece of information.

We paid 30,000 gold as promised and broke up with Legs.

”After all, you didn't know where Grandpa Garth was.”

”Mmm...”

”Well, if you go to King's Capital to match the auction, you'll hear from me, and we'll wait that far.”

”Okay.”

Next, a request from Gumd.
