CH 279

Volume 12 Episode 7

It is not surprising, but strangely, there are many geeks among wizards.

Of course, there were many geeks among the artifact creators included in the category of wizards.

this is big

Leonardo, who made a lie detector and played a little game, was one of those called geeks, and he was quite a high-circle mana user.

It’s a pull-up level, but it’s still a 7th circle.

If you are in the 7th circle, wherever you go, you will be treated like a hospitality.

Then, he gathered people in the market and played as a host, and it was a kind of hobby, nothing more, nothing less.

Leonardo, who was playing with a lie detector while attending society as usual, saw a child who was presumed to be a student.

Should I say that lightning strikes my head as soon as I see it?

Pretty good looking.

He appears to be around 17 years old at most, but there is a high probability that he was an academy student.

It must be a student from another kingdom participating in Ishmael Academy or the academy battle that has emerged as a hot topic right now.

But just then, he raised his hand to participate.

So I got it involved.

Originally, I was supposed to ask a number of humorous questions, but I couldn’t.

It wasn’t an instinctive sense of discomfort or anything like that, I just didn’t want to do it.

‘You’re a romantic, you’re young.’

They look like a younger couple, but this student’s eyes were focused only on that beautiful woman.

The blind feelings and nuances that other women do not even notice.

I could feel it even without a lie detector.

No matter how geeky you are, you can’t play pranks on a child like that.

Leonardo forgot the questionnaire he had in his arms.

He shrugged lightly and asked a question.

“This is the last question. I can take that special feeling for that woman forever.”

Moment woo woo woo woo-!!

Hearing boos from all sides, followed by what kind of question is that? Leonardo smirked.

Then I didn’t participate.

There was also a voice saying, “Do you discriminate against people based on their face?” It’s my heart anyway.

Leonardo asked, keeping a smile on his face.

“Aren’t you going to answer me? If you pass this, you will get 100 gold, right?”

The host didn’t care about the boos.

“Aren’t you going to answer me? If you pass this, you will get 100 gold, right?”

once answered.

“Of course yes.”

The lie detector turned out to be true.

After the five questions were over, I slowly got up from my seat.

Naturally, the moderator takes out a wrinkly pocket from his bosom and hands it to me.

with these words.

“Having a good time with a woman.”

When I opened it, I saw that there was really 100 gold in it.

Oops, I feel like something is missing.

“Is the reaction around you a little stingy?”

“Do you see that?”

Yes, it seems.

It looks like an egg is about to fly sideways right now.

As I stepped aside, an egg fluttered and fell into my place.

Terrible.

“Are you asking other people only pretty funny questions?”

Without a word, the host took a piece of paper from his bosom.

There were a lot of high-level questions written in it.

Most were like this.

You are dissatisfied with your current lover, if you scroll down from this section, do you have another lover, you feel that you do not have a good relationship with your current wife, etc.

I want to break up with my lover, but I can’t because of money, etc.

There were roughly fifty questions that could destroy a family with just one question, and I realized that.

You never asked me a single question like this.

What is similar is the question about sexual intercourse with other women.

Since then, this man hasn’t asked any strange questions.

When I was about to ask why.

“I guess it’s because they’re good men and women, it’s just nice to see them. I have to say I don’t want to break the mood. Besides, there are very few romantics like that these days. So you have to respect it.”

It was just this man’s whim.

It’s the first time I’ve ever felt like this.

“It’s a digression, but it’s not because it’s a lie detector, it’s really, it feels sincere.”

“Are you serious?”

“It’s that way too, but I felt something for that woman who was watching from over there. belonging? trust? what’s that I just want to support you. Good luck. It suits you.”

So the man started packing.

Master, who was far away, approached me and tilted my head.

It’s something I’ve been thinking about since before.

“The lie detector seems to have a very high level of reliability?”

“Oh, do you see that?”

“Changes in body functions can be easily controlled by high-circle mana users, but I could be that kind of person.”

The man laughs lightly.

Then, as if it were a trade secret, he whispered into my ear.

“If you increase your mana, even if you increase it even a little, the lie detector will always come out as ‘False’.”

Five.

“So that’s how you know it’s true. It’s an artifact that unconditionally reacts to any movement of circle 1’s mana, even that small mana. Is there an answer?”

So the man left.

Exactly, I was trying to get out.

“Are you an artifact creator?”

The man turns around.

“The circles look like 7 circles, did you make the lie detector yourself?”

“… … right. But how did you know that I was in the 7th circle?”

How do you know, you know when you see it.

“Do you have any plans to commercialize that lie detector?”

“… … Commercialization? That would be nice, but… …

you said

I’ve been diagnosed with the talent hunter disease.

“I will introduce you to the continental battlefield. That looks good for entertainment.

Let’s sell it.”

The man’s expression changed bizarrely.

By the way.

“Is that all? Any other artifacts?”

The name of the man who owned the lie detector and watched the society was Leonardo.

As a 7th circle mana user, he was a much more interesting person than I thought, with a fairly good knowledge of magic.

“Jack Valantier, you were the celebrity.”

The place I was in was Leonardo’s house, and that was the living room.

Leonardo, who was paying close attention to me in this rather complicated place, which was supposed to be a living room and a study room, continued to speak slowly.

“Um, it’s quite different from the rumors, isn’t it?”

I’ve been curious about it for a while, but how the hell did the rumors spread about me, so everyone reacts like that?

“He’s two meters tall, his entire body is covered with muscles, and if you look at his face, he’s almost like a monster rather than a human. .”

That’s the exact rumor.

I just shrugged my shoulders and moved on.

“By the way.”

“What else?”

“I was really curious about this personally, but you said you stole 400 billion won on the continental battlefield?”

“It was.”

Come to think of it, that happened three months ago.

Time goes by so fast.

“How did you do that? What kind of rotiple came out three times in a row? Be honest. Are you scammed? Did you cheat on the dealer, or did you take the bottom off?”

I laughed out loud.

Even if you tell me, you won’t be able to follow me.

But now looking at this man.

“You are surprisingly greedy for money.”

Leonardo shrugs.

“Is there anyone who hates money? That’s my motto. Spend it while you have it and earn it when you can.”

“Does such a person play truth games? You were throwing 100 gold.”

Leonardo laughs lightly.

“Why save money on hobbies? And this is a bit of a digression, but today is the first time I have actually suffered a loss while playing a true game.”

That’s why you have to be like that.

So I looked around Leonardo’s living room.

It seems like common artefact craftsmen made various weapons mainly.

One thing looks a little odd.

He asked, pointing to ‘that’ with his hand.

“What is this?”

Leonardo smiles awkwardly.

“Is it? I just made it because I was too lazy to do paperwork.”

About 30cm in width and height

The alphabet and numbers were engraved on a 10cm, square plate about that.

It’s my first time seeing it.

What is this?

“I wanted to show you a staff that emits rose flowers when swung and a greatsword that glows whenever the swords collide, but you are interested in strange things.”

“Ordinary people would think that a staff with a rose flower or a sword that glows with each swing is strange. So what is this?”

Leonardo shrugs.

“For now, I call it a ‘typewriter.'”

After leaving Leonardo’s house, Master and I walked around the city again as before.

The difference from before was that I had a communication device in my hand, and an old man with an attractive beard was talking with a smile on the communication device.

Roland Lynch.

The uncle, the master of the continental battlefield, asks.

{keyboard? If you input the alphabet on the keyboard and type it by hand, will the letters be written on the paper naturally? Well. I’m not pretty.}

It’s not a bad level, it’s a great level.

{There won’t be a lot of people who have to do paperwork, so it’s going to sell quite a bit.}

The difference between me and Roland Lynch was here.

I think it will sell quite a bit… … Well, I think this is going to be a hit.

When I asked why, he replied:

{People with higher positions tend to believe in their own ‘handwriting’. If you type with a typewriter, the standardized characters will come out, and the person’s unique handwriting will not come out. In other words, there is a high probability that the nobles will not like this very much.}

It may have been because he had been in business for a long time, but Roland was well aware of the tendencies of the nobles.

“I think that’s what you call a poop, right?”

｛Heh heh, that’s not wrong. Don’t worry though. A typewriter or something like that would be quite demanding, at least for adventurers guilds and administrators.｝

I thought it was insignificant.

The stubbornness of the nobles, how long will it go if it goes?

Everything will be sorted out soon.

｛There are few creditors who help debtors by the way, but he was an interesting friend in many ways.}

That’s why I kept smiling.

shrugged.

“Since you have discovered such a good item, please give me about a hundred typewriters for free.”

{A hundred? Can’t you just do that? Can you set the introduction fee as a commission and return a certain percentage of it to you?}

As I said before, I have a lot of money.

“There is a fee. If you want to give money like that, please put some money into the academy in the name of the academy development fund. That’s it.”

{Heh heh, you don’t even know if you know. It seems that there is a lot of greed, and it seems that there is no such thing.}

“Then, from now on, since it is the realm of commerce, am I out of business?”

{Heh heh, I see. Try making it and distributing it as quickly as possible. by the way.}

Stopped trying to cut communication.

Do you have more to say?
