Mercenary guilds usually serve as a link between mercenaries and others.

If you entrust a mission to the mercenary union, it will connect mercenaries suitable for the mission among mercenaries who do not have a job.

It was a helpful combination from the standpoint of the mercenary as well as the person entrusted with the task.

However, the fees charged by the association were considerable.

It was said that the work is done by mercenaries and the money is earned by the mercenary union.

The reason the union works normally despite taking such a lot of commission is because of the masters of the mercenary union.

The master of the mercenary union in each region is a highly skilled mercenary who is famous in that region.

As a result, the mercenary guild master in that area is an opponent that cannot be touched.

The mercenary union looked after them, the local influence was strong, and the master himself had strong power, so even the nobles could not touch it.

That man was beaten by Robert, so people just ran away.

“sorry… … .”

The Mercenary Guild Master was apologizing to Robert with a swollen face.

It was so fitting that it was hard to see the original face shape.

Robert unwrapped his wrist and opened his mouth.

“You’ve grown a lot. That’s cheeky.”

“Ugh… … .”

The situation was like this.

Robert called the Master and was having a drink downstairs, and somehow things got tangled up and the words couldn’t be delivered to the Master.

Robert endured here once.

As it was, Robert headed towards the Master on his own feet.

The master’s room is on the second floor of the bar.

Robert proudly went up to the second floor and knocked on the door of the master’s room.

However, of course, the Master pretended to be an impersonator and spat out abusive language.

Robert exploded like that.

“I… … But, what are you doing?”

When I asked, Robert opened his mouth.

“f*ck.”

“Come on, I’ll follow you… … Aren’t you a colleague?”

“If it’s not the guy who used to follow me around with my luggage, what would it be?”

“… … .”

At Robert’s words, the man named Master could not open his mouth.

“When did Professor Robert meet with such a person… … .”

“Wait a moment… … Robert, are you a professor?”

Robert looked at the Master with cold eyes.

“Suck!”

The Master then covered his mouth with his hand.

Robert looked at him and looked away.

“There were times when I wandered. Something to do with these guys.”

“Well… … .”

I shut my mouth without asking any more.

Is this the story before joining the academy as a professor?

Then I heard that a lot had happened before Professor Cromwell brought him to the academy.

Robert turned his head and looked at the Master again.

“Jacques, you have work to do.”

“You have to… … work?”

“Find someone.”

Robert threw the scroll in his hand at the man who called him Jacques.

“Find out by tomorrow night.”

Jacques opened the scroll that Robert had thrown and looked through it.

“Hey, are you doing this until tomorrow night? Oh no. Rather than that, I go to jail after investigating this!”

“okay? Are you more afraid of prison than I am now?”

“Suck… … .”

Jacques covered his mouth with his hand again.

He was a big man, but he couldn’t move enough to make me feel sorry for him.

“Hey, let’s go inside and talk… … .”

Jacques said that and looked outside.

“Hmmm. Today’s business ends here!! A valuable customer will come and close the store!”

Jacques shouted outside with a dignified attitude different from Robert’s.

People were puzzled, but once the Master said so, it seemed like they were going back, wondering if that was the case.

“By the way… … Who are you?”

“Ah, we are Professor Robert’s students.”

“student? Did that person have a disciple?”

Jacques looked at Robert with a puzzled expression.

“It’s just the guys who taught me some magic under me.”

“… … Isn’t that a disciple?”

Then Robert looked at him sharply.

Jacques looked at us, avoiding Robert’s gaze.

“Okay, then you guys come in too.”

So we went into the Mercenary Guild Master’s room.

Jacques opened his mouth as he opened the scroll that Robert had given him to the desk.

What was written on the scroll was related to the investigation of Epomos.

“Don’t you know that it is against the law to investigate matters related to Epomos… … .”

“So I did it for you. Because the mercenaries know this well.”

Epomos.

An underground city called the other side of the capital.

The imperial capital is very stylish and beautifully decorated.

People are in good clothes, and they are neat enough that not a single piece of trash falls.

The reason it could be maintained like this is because there was an underground city.

Epomos is an underground city where the poor in the former capital lived.

The empire was in trouble because of this underground city.

This is because the security of the capital is not getting better due to the presence of epomos, and it is difficult to catch criminals as the poor protect each other.

In such trouble, the Empire finds out one thing.

The fact that the warlocks in Epomos are studying necromancy magic.

In the end, the Empire set it as a cause and destroyed all Epomos.

“How do we now investigate the lost city… … All related materials must be in the possession of the Empire.”

“The Empire has no data.”

“… … yes?”

“I went to the Empire myself, and I asked other people related to the Empire to investigate, but all the data were lost.”

When I heard that, I opened my eyes.

Destroying the Empire’s data?

“I can roughly guess who did it, but… … .”

Robert said so and glanced at me.

Astrian clan?

Why are those people?

I had my doubts, but once I kept hearing the story.

“The Empire has just realized that it has disappeared and is in a hurry to search for materials, so you should look for it as well.”

“How can I find something that the Empire can’t find… … .”

“You say mercenaries do anything for money?”

Robert pulled out his pocket and threw it at Jacques.

thump-

The pockets made a heavy sound and fell to the desk.

Jacques looked at Robert as if what was this.

Robert opened his mouth indifferently.

“It’s gold.”

“… … yes?”

No matter how small the pocket was, it was larger than the fist of an adult man.

At least 100 gold coins if it is full of gold coins.

It was a burdensome amount even for aristocrats, and for commoners, it was enough to survive for the rest of their lives.

“Can you do it with that money?”

“… … Leave it to me. this jack! We will do our best to find out!”

Jacques saw the amount and jumped up from his seat.

However, he quickly changed his eyes to sorrowful eyes and looked at them slowly.

“However… … One day is too hard… … How about a date… … .”

“Okay, then five days.”

That person was going to give me 5 days anyway.

If we go to Railer’s estate, it will be about that time.

Still, he was talking as if he were being honest.

“I will do my best!!!”

Jacques had no clue about that, and replied in a loud voice full of gratitude.

“therefore… … Who are you?”

Zach sat in front of me and Luna and asked.

Robert was sitting on the side of the store, eating.

We ate, but Robert hadn’t eaten yet, so he was eating separately.

“Academy students.”

“Ahaha… … .”

“I am a student… … So you use magic, and you also deal with spirits?”

“Yes, we are students of the Faculty of Magic, so we know how to use magic.”

I don’t even need to mention Priscilla… … .

I didn’t ask because I was curious to what extent I could use my abilities, but as if I was asking just to show my boredom.

“Hey, then I will become a nobleman later. But, shouldn’t I study? Can I just walk around like this?”

“It’s a vacation, so it’s a bit quiet. Master asks us to go, is there anything special about us?”

“Ohh… … Your situation is similar to mine.”

Jacques looked at us sympathetically.

“I thought I was going to become a disciple of someone like that at a young age… … . Still, my personality has become a lot more gentle than before, so I’ll just live with it.”

As Jacques recalled, he looked up at the ceiling and said.

I didn’t miss it and immediately opened my mouth.

“How was Professor Robert the olden days?”

What I was curious about was this.

Even when I asked professors like Robert and Cromwell, they never answered.

However, this person named Jacques seemed to be on fire with a little bit of excitement.

“Big… … Once upon a time, Robert was like a real devil… … . no. I’m summoning a demon, so it’s a devil, right?”

“Oh oh… … So, since when did you know Professor Robert?”

“Brother Robert? maybe… … When you were kicked out of the Empire?”

When I heard that, I opened my eyes.

You’ve known each other longer than you think, right?

I thought we’d only met once or twice, but it was a surprise.

“When I think about it… … I was very brave.”

Jacques trembled with a terrifying expression on his face.

“Still, Robert was young at the time… … . I was young too.”

“Well… … That’s right… … .”

“Did you just say strange things in front of the kids? drag… … .”

Jacques spoke with such sentimentality, then regained his senses and smiled.

Looking at him like that, he didn’t seem like a bad person.

“Still, seeing that I received a disciple has changed a lot… … . In the past… … .”

“You talk too much.”

Professor Robert looked back slightly as he ate.

It was an opportunity to know Robert’s secret, but it was a bit disappointing.

How the hell is that person hiding his work?

It was understandable when I thought about it, but as a person nearby, I also felt frustrated.

“Hmm. Then let’s talk about something else. Yeah, I haven’t heard your name. What is your name?”

At Zach’s words, Luna and I met our eyes slightly.

This question was a little tricky.

If you’re going to get information from Jacques, it’s best not to reveal your name… … .

“Yeah, what’s your pretty name?”

“ah… … My name is Luna Railer… … .”

“Well… … ?”

When Zac heard Luna’s name, he furrowed his eyebrows.

“what? Are you noble?”

“Ahaha… … He’s an aristocrat in almost no name.”

“Where are the nobles with only names? If you are a noble, you are a noble.”

Jacques said so and rubbed his chin.

“If it’s a railer… … Are you a self-writer in that area?”

“yes… … . That rural estate… … .”

“Ah, there… … . Hmmm… … .”

I tilted my head at that reaction.

What level is Railer Youngji’s level of reacting like that? … .

It’s a rural village, so it’s a rough estimate, but I thought it was at that level.

Jacques immediately turned his head and looked at me.

“Yeah, you?”

“Rudy… … My name is Rudy.”

I deliberately left out my last name.

If Astria’s name suddenly appears here, it’s sure to make each other uncomfortable.

“Rudy? Well… … It’s not a manly name, but it suits him well.”

“Ahaha… … thank you.”

“It looks like you did some exercise though! Your body is a little masculine!”

Jacques said, pounding my body with his fist.

“Did you exercise to protect your girlfriend?”

“It’s not like that… … .”

“No, what is it? I have a girlfriend like this.”

Zac said, pointing to Luna next to him.

Then, Luna’s expression brightened.

“Are you ashamed? In this case, you will get some points from your girlfriend~. I was exercising because of you~”

“no… … Something like that… … .”

“Are we okay?”

Luna suddenly lit up her eyes and said to Zac.

“Uh, huh? Does it suit you well?”

Luna smiled and looked at me.

“Rudy. It suits you well.”

“… … .”

I only responded with an awkward smile to Luna’s words.

“Come on, let’s go now.”

Then Robert got up and opened his mouth.

Then Jacques got up, bowed his head 90 degrees, and opened his mouth.

“Gosh. older brother. Then see you next time.”

Robert looked at Jacques and looked at me.

“Hmm… … .”

When Robert didn’t respond, Jacques raised his face a little and looked at him.

“what… … Do you have anything to say?”

Robert thought for a moment before moving on.

“done. Goes.”

“Yep! Goodbye!”

We went out of the store with a loud greeting from Jacques.

***

the next morning.

smart-

A knock sounded in the room.

“eww… … what?”

I got up and looked to the side.

Obviously Robert didn’t have to sleep in the bed next to him.

smart-

Then the knock rang again.

“Hmmm. who are you?”

I was not awake, so I cleared my throat and cried.

“Open the door.”

“… … yes?”

“Open the door. Rudy Astria.”

“… … .”

This dignified and dignified speech.

female voice.

I got up slowly and opened the door.

“How did you get here… … .”

Astina was standing outside the door.
