Duke, Please Repent! chapter 297

53. Duke’s Recruitment Proposal (1)

Serpense’s gaze turned to Eugene again.

Thinking that he might be scolded again, Eugene’s neck shrugged.

“How did the investigation I requested go?”

“Ah! The investigation into the master of the leather workshop and the customer who entrusted the order?”

When asked to report the results of the investigation, Eugene answered with a sweeping heart. I could even feel the joy in her voice.

The infinite loop of ‘But why did you do that?’ must have been scary.

“First of all, speaking of the workshop owner… I was receiving a certain amount of money every month from the top of Rossio.

“Is this the price of not teaching children properly?”

There’s no need to even assume “what if”

seems to.

Before further explanation could be given, Serpence spoke to Eugenes. It took the form of a question, but there was certainty.

To that, Euges expressed affirmation by saying that he would, and Serpens nodded his head slightly with an expression that he knew it would be so.

“That’s…. It’s absurd! How can you do such a thing with an expensive introduction fee?!”

Edna suddenly jumped up and shouted.

If the main altar at the top of Rossio had not been blown up, they would have attacked right away.

“Those masters: No, even those crooks! They blamed the kids on me, and babbled like that in the original apprenticeship system!”

Now it’s a bra because the sleeves are rolled up.

Since the top has been blown up, it seems they are trying to attack the children’s workplaces with chickens instead of pheasants.

“It is true that artisans are not willing to teach their skills.

I, five artisans in different fields, did the same thing ‘as if they had reached an agreement’, didn’t they? That’s what I expected.”

r… ” -，-I， •

“Calm down and sit down.”

Serpens looked at Ed me with calm eyes and said.

Edna received the gaze and sat down with a grassy expression on her face.

“If I had known sooner…”

“Nothing has changed. I would have asked for more than the money given from the top or kicked them out because they caught a living person.

It’s obvious.”

“Isn’t that still something you could have tried?”

“Ummm… I’ll correct it. The demon worshipers wanted Mr. Edna to be frustrated with all his struggles. The more he tried, the worse things would have been.”

Serpens uttered a cruel word. In the meantime, his expression was full of compassion.

I feel sorry for having to say such a rude thing to you.

That I can’t make eye contact

As if, he bowed his head and wiggled his fingers.

This is the usual external fence.

‘I’m glad you’re feeling refreshed.’

A happy smile burst out of me with a sense of relief.

at that time. Serpens tapped my leg under the table with his foot. It means taking good care of your face.

I tried hard to put on a serious expression.

“I understand well that the teacher received orders from Rossio.

NS. Then what about the mother-in-law?”

“Monam…? I don’t know what the abbreviation is.

But, are you referring to the customer who used to be a hanger at the leather workshop?”

To get back to the point, Eugene naturally answered my question, which I posed lightly.

There was a time when, with a cold expression, he said mechanically, ‘I didn’t understand what you were saying.’

It must have been that they became accustomed to each other.

Unlike me, who has a proud heart,

Serpens shook her head, and Edna looked at Eugenes with her mouth wide open.

Winston just sat idly. It’s the attitude that you don’t want to get involved in this kind of conversation.

“He’s the owner of a famous clothing store in the Peroles. Because he only deals in high-end clothing1, he’s famous even among those with a certain amount of money.”

It is said that they came to this place from the neighboring estates to do their best. That’s a great truth.

“My name is Dorian Nathaniel…”

“Huh? It’s not Derek? Edna-san called it that way…”

“Oh, you came from this orphanage? Originally, the name ‘Dorian’ seemed to be the name of the deceased son of his adoptive parents.”

TMI I didn’t really want to know.

I’m confused, so I’ll just call him Monam.

“Anyway, it has nothing to do with Rossio.”

“No?!”

“Yes. It’s not a form of delivery to the top, but we sell tailor-made clothes to customers directly. We also have fixed customers for fabrics. Instead, there was a contract with these terms written on it in the store. .”

Eugene took out two sheets of paper from the subspace pocket and handed it to Serpens.

He held a copy of the contract in his right hand. It’s all about consideration so that I, who sits to my right, can read together.

Edna got up and I

We returned to Serpence’s back and looked over the contract over our shoulder.

“If you just take turns reading…, no, no.”

Winston was about to say something, but just kept his mouth shut. As if to say something, with an expressionless expression.

I also understand that he doesn’t understand us.

But I was very curious about the content, and Edna was too hasty.

I looked away from Winston, the contract in Serpens’ hands

focused again on

One sheet is a leather coat production order.

It’s a 23 million ass contract. Placebo Gold and Gold for 50 years. It’s just as Monamy said.

And another one… .

“Are you talking about banging?”

If Edna comes to the top of Rossio to borrow money, he will provide double the amount.

It was also written that they would not charge a penalty for the leather coat.

‘Somehow, I said that money is called a misnomer.

I clicked my tongue and carefully read what was written underneath.

There was a notice regarding the termination of the contract.

If you cannot fulfill the quest, you will be charged a penalty of 10 million ass.

In this case, you also have to pay a penalty for making a coat, so the penalty alone is 15 million ass in total.

“I only gave Monam a 4 million ass ruby ​​brooch…”

“Didn’t it turn out to be a concoction of a demon worshiper? If you come to ask for money, I’m telling you I’m a demon worshiper. There’s no way they’ll come. So don’t worry.”

Suddenly feeling sorry and muttering, Serpens comforted me.

I hear it’s very plausible.

“Then Monam earned 4 million ass in one sitting?!

“Isn’t the price of leather 7 million ah? Calm down.”

“In that sense, Monam lost 3 million ass…. He signed a contract to harass others to earn money. He was punished!

Serpense put down the contract copy on the table and burst into laughter.

“Derek, what the hell was that kid thinking…”

Unlike Serpence, who had completely regained his peace of mind, Edna murmured as if he was disturbed.

She tumbled helplessly back to her seat and floundered down.

“What do you think, what do you think? It’s a bad idea. The victim, Edna 从] doesn’t need to understand it.”

“Yeah… I guess.”

Edna replied with a bitter smile.

“That’s all the report is about.”

“Um… well done. And be careful in the future.”

“Yes, I’ll be careful.”

To Serpense’s warning to be careful, Eugene quickly responded.

Perhaps he liked the reaction, Serpence nodded with satisfaction.

“But, was there anything wrong with this place?”

“Yeah, that’s okay. Demon worshipers did come, but…”

He muttered his words and looked into the corner of the director’s office. There, the manager and the demon were tied side by side and rolled on the floor.

“What’s that scorch mark over there?”

“Huh? Where did the magic stone that was rolling over there go?”

“The demon worshiper brought the ‘Living Dead’ as an escort. It is the trace of burning it, and I kept the magic stone just in case.”

Serpence kindly answered my questions today as well.

“It’s not something related to black magic anyway, so it shouldn’t be evidence, right?”

“If you want something, I’ll give it to you.”

“I’m not even a wizard, what can I do with it?”

“You like to sparkle, don’t you?”

“After seeing the Holy Stone, I couldn’t be satisfied with just magic stones. It’s all because of Serpens.,,

At my words, should Serpens be gloomy or happy? He looked confused.

I wanted to make fun of him, but I decided to put up with Edna, who was looking at us with a puzzled face.

“What is the Living Dead?”

As usual, Eugene raised his hand and asked a question.

“You can think of it as a corpse that moves with the power of magic.”

“Is it different from the Undead?”

“The biggest difference is that… Undead is a product of black magic, but Living Dead is not.”

“You can raise the dead without black magic?!”

“Using a corpse is simply the easiest way to disguise a person’s appearance.

So it’s just that. To be precise, should I say that it makes ‘inanimate objects’ move? Because the magic of the origin is magic… .”

I glanced at Edna with a glance.

Edna smiled bitterly and explained the magic of playing with dolls to Eugenes, who was confused.

“Who the hell leaked it?”

“There is currently no way to find it.”

“…What happen?”

“What do you mean?”

“Serpence would give up right away like this.

there is no lee At the very least, I should make a suggestion to go to the Magic Tower and make magicians… ? Is there any reason why you can’t find it?”

It looks like it will be cut by Eugene’s sharpness.

Serpence, who received the suspicious gaze of Eugene, looked at me. There was no need to even talk about the magic of playing with dolls, was it?

‘It’s my fault, but it’s shameless.’

Anyway, it’s already been shot.

it’s spilled water

Before I say anything to him, I have to fix it first.

“The demon said last night, it’s magic made by the Demon King! It’s probably just a similar magic!”

“It is said that the criminal who leaked the magic has already turned into a black magician and left the Magic Tower long ago.”

The excuses of me and Serpens were mixed.

We looked at each other with the gaze of whether we would call that an excuse now.

“So… Edna-sama and Anima

The wizard who saw your magic got the idea from there and created a living dead magic similar to that, and he turned into a black wizard and became a demon lord?”

“No, why put them together?!”

“…Actually, it didn’t seem like I was talking about it.”

The Demon King has existed since a very distant past. Eugene’s story is completely impossible.

“I’m right. A demon worshiper confessed that early this morning. He said he would break the skein of magic.

You did it on your own.”

Serpens let out a small sigh.

To say that the devil confessed to him is a blatant lie. But what I said earlier is a little different.

It wasn’t enough to cut off the evil monkey’s skein and inflict pain, it was also immersed in water.

Whether water really knows the answer, we delved deeply into it.

I asked him with my eyes if the story was true. Serpens closes his eyes and says no.

has been sent

“What are you two talking about with your eyes?”

“Yeah? How do you communicate with your eyes? Euges is also really good, you say things that make sense.”

“Does it sound like it?”

“That’s Eugene’s misunderstanding.”

Eugene had a look of regret.
