The Extra's Return

Before Gil and I parted ways, I didn't forget to give Gil the Communication Crystal Ball.

"Em... Young Master, you may already know, but I can't use magic items like this."

"Go to the Black Box organization's headquarters. Get someone named Solemn to activate the Communication Crystal Ball."

"???"

A confused expression was planted on his face, but I continued to speak to him.

"Well, if he asks, then just answer that you are my servant."

He had sparkles in his eyes when I told him about the Black Box organization members in the slum who would listen if he went there on my behalf.

At first, he was worried and refused the Communication Crystal Ball because he couldn't use it, but after I convinced him, he accepted it.

"If there is useful information later, pass it on to me via the Communication Crystal Ball. Whether it's information from within the mansion or information from within Ryam city, I want you to provide as much information as possible."

I intend to threaten him if he refuses. Making threats against Gil wasn't that difficult when I found out that his brother was the boss of the Ryam city branch of the Black Box organization.

But somehow, after seeing the look in his eyes when he saw me, I couldn't bring myself to do that.

"Oh. Obviously. Even if there are no newsworthy incidents, I will dig up useful information and give you all the information I get in detail, Young Master. If needed, I can provide periodic reports, even if it is not useful information."

"Hmm. Ok. Up to you."

I can only hope I won't receive any strange information from him.

"Emm, if I may ask, what have you done to the Black Box organization headquarters in the slum area?"

"You will find out for yourself later."

I don't need to explain that I ransacked the Black Box organization headquarters in the slum area.

And that's how we parted ways.

ραпdα Йᴏνê|(сòm) But before we actually parted ways, he made a strange resolution.

"I promise to make him a true noble. And I'm ready to deliver him into a powerful figure. That way, I'll have the capital to fight the Black Box organization that took my brother!!!"

That's what Gil mutters I hear.

I don't understand how he could hate the Black Box organization when I told him that the cause of his brother's death was fighting Baron Warwick's soldiers.

'Could it be because of his past?'

At first, I was curious, but that curiosity disappeared as I walked.

***

When I arrived in front of the village chief's house, I was astonished when I saw an unusual sight. You can't find that sight in everyday life in a small village like this.

Many villagers were bustling around with carts carrying Magical Beast corpses.

The Magical Beasts that had gathered and piled up on the side of the road were shaped like Wild Boars, but strangely there was a thorn on their back that looked like a porcupine's quills.

I know that in this world, creatures like that were originally just like the common animals that exist on earth.

But a change started to happen to them from being exposed to the energy from within the Dungeon.

The energy from the Dungeon is what makes the ecosystem in this world different from the ecosystem on earth.

Finally, they were born, Magical Beast.

Because of Magical Beasts like that, many humans had a hard time living. Perhaps these villagers were also having a hard time due to that group of Magical Beasts.

Fortunately, Magical Beasts like the Wild Boar were low-level. Even untrained villagers would be able to kill them. Of course, there would almost certainly be heavy casualties.

So, it was quite strange to see villagers transporting the corpses of Wild Boars.

'Then who can defeat those Wild Boars?'

As I was wondering, the village chief's voice came to my ears.

"Finally you came here, sir."

The village chief welcomed me with a bright face. In contrast to the gloomy and sluggish face that entered his face before, now he seems to smile so much that I'm worried his mouth will be torn.

"What happened?"

"Hehe, all of this is thanks to your friend. At first, I was worried because he only asked for food and special treatment, but I didn't expect that he would solve the problems in our village so quickly."

The village chief was most probably referring to Anas. Before I met Gil, I left Anas at the village chief's house.

But I didn't expect that person to make such a big fuss.

It turned out that Anas was already near me. He seemed to be enjoying every word that came out of the village chief's mouth.

He rubbed his nose shyly.

"Hehehe."

A strange laugh emerged from Anas' mouth.

On his body still stuck a splash of Wild Boars blood. From there, I knew that he was the one who had just defeated that group of Wild Boars.

And my guess was confirmed by the village chief's passionate story. He began to tell Anas' prowess in an exaggerated tone.

"At first, he said goodbye to go outside. I thought that he just wanted to run away after finishing the food at my house. However, at that time, a group of Wild Boars was seen roaming the field that we will plant later on. And after that, he took down a group of Wild Boars with great agility. Fwoosh! Swoosh! Shwaas!... Like that... Hahaha."

I was worried that Anas' nose would become even longer as he received all the praise from the village chief.

"...Haha. You don't need to praise me like that, village chief. But I'm disappointed that you thought that I would run away after you fed me."

'No, I'm sure he would have left immediately if he hadn't found a pack of Wild Boars in the fields.' That's how I thought when I saw the interaction between the village chief and Anas who were nudging each other with their words.please visit panda-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

Apart from that, I do have to thank Anas for a little.

Originally I didn't even have any intention of listening to the village chief's request, let alone any thoughts of helping him.

"Haha regardless of that, thanks to you two. Because of you two, we were able to start plowing our fields safely. If we had to wait for the Lord's army, we would have been late in plowing our fields."

The village chief bowed his thanks to us.

So did the other villagers.

Therefore, the two of us, Anas and myself, started to continue our journey. We headed straight west.

"So, where are we going next?"

"We will go there."

I pointed at Fier Mountain which was coming into view with our naked eyes. Besides, I want to make that place a training ground, but I also have to gain something there.

***

At the same time, elsewhere.

More precisely at the Warwick family mansion.

"I deeply apologize, My Lord. I have failed to catch Young Master Mesties and even let Young Master Daniel die."

Vice Captain Trusty's voice echoed in Baron Warwick's office room. He put one knee on the ground and his left hand clenched into the ground. It was the usual position when a knight faced the people they served.

"Naturally you should be given punishment for negligence in carrying out your duties."

"I am ready to accept any punishment you give, My Lord. Even if you want to give this servant the death penalty!"

Vice Knight Captain Trusty didn't even dare to look up to stare in the direction where Baron Warwick was. He could only surrender because of his incompetence. While waiting for Baron Warwick's response, a little sweat dripped down his forehead.

"They say someone helped the Mesties escape, is that true?"

"That's right, my lord. I didn't recognize him at first. But then I learned that it was the Head of the Black Box organization named Gilbert."

"...."

"Do you want us to arrest the man, My Lord?"

"No need."

Vice Knight Captain Trusty's head began to spin. He was confused by the reaction shown by Baron Warwick.

He was aware that Baron Warwick still occasionally used a group called the Black Box organization. For this reason, he felt that he was still a less reliable knight.

"In that case, I will deploy troops to chase after and track down Young Master Mesties."

"That's also unnecessary."

"...Eh?"

Upon hearing Baron Warwick's baffled answer, Vice Knight Captain Trusty subconsciously looked up and saw Baron Warwick.

Baron Warwick's back was visible. It appeared that Baron Warwick was staring far out the window.

"Just prepare for Daniel's funeral."

Vice Knight Captain Trusty was speechless. He didn't dare disobey Baron Warwick's orders, so he prepared to resign. He could only indulge what the people he served wanted. A servant may not argue with his employer, that's the principle he has.

But just as he was about to head out, Baron Warwick suddenly changed the order he had previously issued.

"Wait. You can track down the Mesties secretly. Also, make an announcement on my behalf that Daniel's death was an accident after he entered a Dungeon! I must uphold the good name of my nobility."

"As you wish, My Lord."

***

"How did he respond?"

While walking down the hall, Vice Knight Captain Trusty encountered someone he didn't want to see at all.

The man leaned against the wall as if he had been waiting for him to pass.

He is a Knight Captain under the noble household of Warwick. The reason why Vice Knight Captain Trusty felt irritated and was reluctant to meet the Knight Captain, who should be his superior, was because of the Knight Captain's personality.

In contrast to his loyal nature, the Knight Captain is rebellious, lazy, and never takes Baron Warwick's orders seriously. Such was the look of Vice Knight Captain, Trusty.

'How can someone like him become my superior?'

He could only wonder in his heart.

"Hey, hey. Despite this, I am your superior. Wouldn't it be fine if you told me how the senile old man would respond?"

"What? How can you call the noble you serve a senile old man?!"

Vice Knight Captain Trusty was about to draw his sword from its scabbard when he heard the Knight Captain insult those he served. His captain's attitude is what makes him really dislike, or even hate the captain.

"Do you dare to draw your sword?"

The knight captain's hand patted Vice Knight Captain Trusty's shoulder. Just like that, Vice Knight Captain Trusty returned to sheathing his sword.

It was not just a question, but a threat. That's the reality that happened.

The difference in position as knight captain and vice-captain is not just rank, but the position of knight captain and vice-captain also symbolizes the difference in their strength.

Thus, all of that cannot be separated from the absolute law of this world, where the strong are always above the weak.

'I will definitely become strong enough to defeat you.'

Vice Knight Captain Trusty could only bury his determination in his heart.
