Heavenly Inquisition Sword Chapter 1210

Episode 1210. I’m on an adventure

On the first floor of the empty town hall, a makeshift table was set up on which village women were displaying food.

Elio and his party went to one of the empty seats and sat down.

Even though twenty-four men, women, and children, including the guard and the transport manager, gathered in one place, the first floor was so wide that it did not feel cramped.

Elio began to eat dishes that looked appetizing to his plate.

Suddenly, I felt people staring at me and lifted my head.

‘what? why?’

As he stared, people looked unnaturally.

As Elio was dipping the meat with his fork again, Fabian asked with a strange face.

“Lord Lagoa, what happened?”

Before boarding the carriage, the three of them decided to unify each other’s title as ‘Kyung’. It was because the title Count was so prominent.

“You weren’t there?”

“Then why are there so many dishes piled up in front of Lord Lagoa?”

“Originally, someone else’s rice cake looks big.”

“It doesn’t look big, it’s really big. Can’t you see the others glancing?”

“It would be a sign of affection. The world is kind to handsome men and women. I did not know?”

“Lord Lagoa has been around for a long time, but this is the first case like this.”

“so? Are you dissatisfied with the food? Shall I ask you to clean up what is in front of you?”

“no. It’s just because I’m curious. What happened to get special treatment?”

“A while ago…”

It’s time for Elio to bring up what happened on his outing.

Guard Duvalier passed behind Elio and threw a word.

“Your lady looks really nice. Mash, who doesn’t make innocent girls on the periphery cry.”

“…”

The people around him glanced at Elio with a gaze that said otherwise.

Synclare Jeter, who was eating across the street, whispered to her mother.

“Mom, I guess that old man hit someone.”

“It’s not like that. I’m talking about adults, so don’t even think about it. Don’t even look.”

At those words, Synclair Jeter quickly lowered her eyes.

And he pondered whether or not he should tell him that he had blinked.

Fabian quietly put down the pig bone he had been biting off and said.

“Was it because of the lady who got the special treatment? Did you go out and meet a girl?”

Women are weak, but mothers are strong!

Andrea Jeter’s wife, Shine Cowleslaw, said, covering her daughter’s ears with both hands, as if to listen.

“Don’t listen, don’t listen. You don’t listen to grown-ups.”

This was a motherly appeal to ‘be careful what you say in front of children’.

He expressed discomfort because the people around him were also listening through clearing of their coughs.

In the end, the well-mannered Count Larva Omar stepped in.

“Sir Fabian, we are not the only ones here, so stop it. If you have any questions, ask later. Lord Lagoa, please eat.”

For some reason, Elio tried to give a proper explanation, but Fabian, who belatedly grasped the surrounding atmosphere, hurriedly began to suture him.

“Ah yes. It was just something I said. I’m honestly not even curious. I hear it, but I think something obvious will come out. Isn’t that right, Lord Lagoa?”

“Oh right.”

Elio did not speak at length.

Like he said, saving people wasn’t just once or twice, but more than anything else, it was annoying.

After the meal, the people returned to their lodgings on the second floor one by one.

However, Elio and his party enjoyed the tea at their leisure, befitting nobles.

Soon after, the workers came and cleaned everything except Elio and his party.

The first floor became desolate again, but Elio and his party did not get up easily.

It’s because it’s full of people’s smell and there’s nothing to do.

The village chief came to visit with Honeycat, thanked them, and went back.

Fabian said with a slightly disappointed face.

“Honestly, I was hoping for the best for Lord Lagoa this time. But it was like that.”

“Is it wrong to save people from wild beasts?”

“You can’t live only by saving people. Isn’t life supposed to be lived while pursuing pleasure sometimes?”

“Do the shit. Anyway, I didn’t know there was a village like this in the empire. A wild beast came into the village and took people…”

“I will. I was also surprised. It seems that not all empires have good security.”

Count Larva Omar put down the teacup he was holding and joined the conversation.

“The areas where the lord gave up management are the same everywhere. If it’s not a beast, it’s a lawless land infested with thieves.”

Then Fabian asked.

“Why did the lord give up here? It’s a stopover for stagecoaches, so things will get much better if we develop it well.”

“I’ll do it whether the manor doesn’t have enough energy or the lord isn’t interested in running the manor.”

“Tsk!”

Fabian clicked his tongue.

Unfortunately, the kingdoms—for that matter—were no different, so they said nothing more.

This is because swearing at the lord of this place is like spitting on the bed.

As the workers snooped around to clean up, Elio and the others stood up.

When I went up to the second floor, there was a loud noise of snoring from all directions.

Elio and the others quietly found their beds and entered.

***

Next day.

Passengers got into the carriage after breakfast served at the town hall, as they did last night.

As the carriage left the village, Elio smiled and looked back.

“Isn’t that Fabian?”

“What?”

“We didn’t pay for food to the village chief. You said you had to buy each one at the restaurant? You ate it for free.”

“Basic food expenses are included in the price of the carriage. Isn’t this a restaurant? Only formal restaurants were excluded because the food was expensive.”

“Oh yeah? Weren’t we the only ones who didn’t pay?”

Andria Jeter said something in passing.

“We didn’t pay either.”

“Foot!”

I heard the laughter of an adult woman from the front seat.

Andrea Jeter’s wife, Shine Cowleslaw, was listening with her daughter when she made the noise.

“Don’t laugh, Sinclair. I am not laughing.”

At the obvious lie, Andrea Jeter secretly examined the young knight’s complexion.

Fortunately, the young knight didn’t take that as a problem.

Andrea Jeter spoke hastily to divert the young knight’s attention.

“I am a merchant of the Coral Company. It’s late, but thank you.”

“Ah yes. I am adventurous.”

“ah! Are you adventurous? It’s an honor to meet you. This is the first time I see an adventurer.”

“You must have met many merchants, but this is your first time?”

“Because what I do is not for people. I am a mana stone appraiser. As a result, I don’t have much time to meet people.”

“Aha, I understand.”

Elio thought so and opened the ‘Abyss Overview’ on his knee.

Indirectly, he expressed his intention not to talk anymore.

However, Andrea Jeter, who didn’t have much time to meet people, lacked notice.

“This time, the branch of the Principality of Fatima is about to trade mana stones. I will be dispatched for two years as the person in charge of purchasing mana stones. It’s been two years, so I should be able to leave my wife and children behind. So the whole family went together.”

As Andrea Jeter kept talking, Elio closed the open book.

Considering that he was dispatched for two years, he was in a similar position to himself.

After spending almost a year looking for the Celestial Star, we are now on our way to the Abyss.

Looking at the scale of the Abyss, the level of difficulty was as high as the perforation.

I didn’t know if I was lucky enough to wander around the Abyss for a year or maybe several years.

When Elio responded positively, Andrea Jeter continued with an encouraging look.

“Have you ever seen a mana stone?”

“I saw something similar.”

“I see. It is very important to appraise this mana stone. Mana stones are divided into grades 1 to 9, and the price doubles as you go up. If 9th grade is 100 silver, 8th grade is 200 silver. Then how much is a 7th grade?”

Elio responded reflexively to the sudden question.

“Four hundred silver?”

“you’re right. Rank 7 costs 800 silver. So you need to be good at rating when trading. As always, the seller wants to raise the rating and the buyer wants to bring it down. If you take a step there, it will cause enormous damage to the merchant.”

“What grade is the mana stone used in the magic gun?”

“It depends on the price of the magic gun. The mana stones used in the magic guns carried by general gunmen are 9th grade. However, the magic gun used by the Musketeers of the Knights uses the 8th grade. I heard that more than this mana stone is used for specially crafted masterpieces.”

“Does the power increase as higher-grade mana stones are used?”

“Power and stability are dramatically increased. Sometimes the magic gun explodes due to a defective mana stone. In that case, the whole face may be blown off.”

Suddenly, Elio wondered what grade the mana stone of the magic gun that shot him in the back was.

Andrea Jeter continued talking while Elio was distracted.

“When trading mana stones, even the ghosts don’t know if sales and purchasing practitioners cheat on the grade.”

“Are you going there to monitor fraudulent transactions?”

“In conclusion, yes.”

“You can buy the appraiser, right?”

“If you are a commoner, don’t you know? Connoisseurs of noble origin are not bribed. If you do that to earn a few extra bucks, you will be kicked out of the family.”

“You must be a noble?”

“I am the second son of Baron Jeter. My wife is the daughter of the Baron Cowles.”

Although not titled, Andrea Jeter’s voice was powerful.

“I see.”

Elio, suddenly fading at Andrea Jeter’s family pride, opened the book again.

He lowered his head as if digging into the book, and Andrea Jeter didn’t speak anymore.

Kururrrrr—!

The sound of the wagon wheels rolling was heard loudly.

As the atmosphere grew awkward, Andrea Jeter looked out the window.

Come to think of it, it seems that I have been alone up until now.

I don’t usually do this, but when I talk about mana stones, I can’t come to my senses.

‘Oh, I’m embarrassed. I should have listened to what the other person was saying.’

While blaming himself for his foolishness, he quietly turned his head to the young knight.

“Are you going south by any chance?”

Elio gave a short answer without turning his head.

“yes.”

“The great grove? Abyss?”

“Abyss.”

“ah! You’re going to Abyss. Do you know of a famous mana mine at the beginning of the Abyss?”

“I do not know.”

“Even if the mana stones are of the same grade, a little premium is added to the Abyss mana stones. It’s oddly more stable. The mana release time is also a slight difference, but it is definitely long.”

“Ah yes.”

“Mana stones that are below grade 3 on the market are blue. The clearer the blue, the higher the quality. However, the mana stones of Abyss are not bright, but thick. Because this drives appraisers crazy. Abyss’ mana stones are so thick that it’s not difficult to determine their grade.”

“Mr. Jeter.”

“yes?”

“I must read this book. I would appreciate it if you could keep quiet.”

“Ah yes.”

Andrea Jeter kept her mouth shut in an exaggerated motion.

Even then, as if he was sorry, he even pretended to sew his mouth with a needle.

Shine Cowles, who was sitting in the front seat with her daughter, was ashamed of her husband’s behavior, but her expression was bright.

This is because the attitude of a young adventurer who is known to be extremely obsessed with women is surprisingly not bad.
