Chapter 5.1
Freesia’s POV
“I did it myself. I’m grateful. It’s a dish my dad and my brother haven’t tried yet.”
“Yeah? I don’t know if they’ll come to cut my stomach off later.” [lol they will]
He must have been joking, but I flinched.
I hadn’t thought of that, but somehow it seemed so.
‘Phew, I’m glad my dad and brother aren’t here.’
If they came here now, it would be a disaster.
Goosebumps all over my body at the moment I had imagined.
As if my dad and brother were behind my back, I quickly shook my head and erased all my thoughts.
“Now that you’ve been fed, answer me.”
“What?”
“Why do I have to be deaf if I pull that rope?”
I’ve been curious about that ever since.
It may be a trivial excuse, but somehow there’s a woman’s intuition.
In this case, it could be said that the daughter’s intuition.
I thought I would feel uncomfortable if I didn’t ask.
The man tilted his pretty face to the side and shook his head.
“Do you know where it’s connected?”
“well…Umm”
Wasn’t it connected to the security forces?
That’s what I thought.
I was certain Mr. Jade says that.
But the man’s answer deviated from my expectations at the speed of light.
“It’s connected to the tower.”
“Ah, the tower. What? The tower?”
“Yeah. It’s also… A higher mage forced a summoning spell on it.”
What, who?
The mouth, which had been quietly closed in absurdity, opened wide like a fish’s mouth.
Even in a world with wizards, they were rare.
Even senior wizards are precious.
As for how precious it is, you need to give five gold coins to get a high-level wizard once.
Naturally, because they were rare, they had a snobbish personality and were very arrogant.
It is quite predictable that such a senior mage would not feel particularly good if they were dragged into a forced summon.
‘But is it really possible?’
Ah, Dad… How much money did you spend…?
I know that the Duke of Raelica is incredibly rich, but the reason my hands are shaking is probably that I was a small Korean citizen.
In addition, cords for the forced summoning of advanced wizards were everywhere in this ranch.
It is put at a location where anyone will believe a line is required, so you may unintentionally pull it out if you make a mistake.
It is put at a location where it is noticeable, and by mistake, anyone can unintentionally pull it out.
There were even two ropes in the bathroom.
I went to the bathroom last night and almost pulled it unconsciously.
With my spine chilling, I firmly vowed to be careful with my actions in the future.
“Well, if you don’t believe it, you can pull it yourself.”
Perhaps he thought that I did not trust him, the man raised his eyebrows.
I quickly shook my head.
If an advanced wizard comes and takes down the suspicious guy in front of me at once…
After that, it’s obvious.
To whom I’ve just said hello a few times, my sheep and ranch have to bid farewell forever.
‘I can’t let that happen!’
Then I will go back, and it is clear that Freesia’s life will flow like what happened in the original book.
Because of this, I decided to put the matter on hold for a while, so I asked the following question I was curious about.
“Now that I know, pass. What are you doing?”
Now is the time to start interrogating the man.
The man shrugged his shoulders as if he knew what I was about to ask.
“Zion.”
Somehow, it feels like a man who throws his name at a woman who has a crush on him and leaves.
I asked because I wanted to get rid of the vagueness that was rising in me.
“No, not the name. Occupation.”
We’ve had a meal together, but we’re close enough to ask each other full names.
When I looked at him with a vague expression, he licked his tongue.
“Special mercenary.”
“Special mercenary? What is that?”
To begin with, I didn’t know much about this world.
While possessing the body of ‘Freesia,’ I acquired a lot of knowledge for free, but that was limited to that of the duke’s daughter.
‘Freesia’ was not a girl who was particularly interested in the world, so there were more things I didn’t know.
Even after reading the book, I only remember a little about the unique worldview, but I forgot most of it.
I’ve only read a few books.
“To put it simply, the mercenaries are divided into three groups. You know that?”
“I don’t know.”
“I really don’t know anything.”
I don’t know anything. It’s better, to tell the truth in this situation.
Ignorance is not a sin.
I tap the empty gratin container to stop him from saying useless words to pay for the meal.
Then the man sighed and explained.
“The same standard was set all over the world for the classification of mercenaries: general mercenaries, war mercenaries, and special mercenaries. There are 3 types of mercenaries like this .A general mercenary is mainly in charge of personal escort commissions, and a war mercenary is a mercenary who has a permit to receive war commissions.”
“Then what about the last one?”
“I’m a little bit special.”
Zion raised an eyebrow and smiled.
It was a smile like a hungry predator.
“I’ve been commissioned by the heterogeneous races to fulfil their orders. These different races originally detest humans, but I have a special constitution that doesn’t cause them to feel repulsed.”
“Really?”
“These races don’t like human body odors but I have a sweet smell they like.”
Uh, I think I’ve read this somewhere.
I thought about it for a while, but nothing came to mind other than a sense of dizziness.
