Chapter 114 – Chase (Part 1)
”Corrupt examinees?”
Odin was completely surprised
”Isn't it a high level of difficulty for a 7th turn exam?”
At reed
”Of course it is! Telling a 7th turn examinee to take care of examinees that have at least passed the 15th turn exams? It really is unusual”
”Maybe it's not so we are able to measure The exams”
”That erous mission”
”Do you perhaps knohere any corrupt examinees like the Chinese examinees are?”
”There is no way to know Corrupt exae the location of their 'mine'”
”A mine?”
”It's slang It's e call the location of where they collect and store their ”
”So I should look for a location that has a lot of ?”
At my question, Odin replied,
”That could be but trash like the Chinese exa a different way”
”TheArena people?”
”Yes Whether the Arena is s on their interior Since humans are another life form that harnesses mana”
”Then wouldn't it work to look for a place that has suffered a large massacre?”
”Well, not really”
Odin shook his head
”There is no concept of hueeverywhere”
”In this place, there is a tradition of creuess why?”
”The ”
”Yes The corpse is cre that is left is sold or used It was the same in this past war All those killed in action were cre recovered the cost of the war”
According to Odin's explanation, war is created to getor lords who kill prisoners on purpose is a frequent occurrence
'This is a crazy world'
It was another world so I couldn't just look at it from the point of view of my world but for me, I still felt this all to be very inhumane
”This is the way the world is here so even if a whole village were to be killed, there is nothing strange about it It is a world where if you cannot pay the tax, the lords will take your life for it”
”Ugh They'll be really hard to find then”
”Corrupt exaets for other examinees So they move even more carefully within the Arena”
'Getting an exam like this out of the blue, this is really complicated'
Up to the 6th exam, all the exams were connected
1st was the red apes
2nd was the retaliation of the angered red rapes
3rd was running into lycanthropes clan when escaping the forest
4th and 5th was the elves that the lycanthropes were targeting
6th was the fight with the elves that got attacked by the undead army
There was a point of connection between each one
'Hold on, there's no way that I would be given a totally random mission'
Everything is a hint!
Even though it may seem random, there would definitely be a connection to the last 6th exam
Figuring out what that connection ould be the guide to how to solve the 7th exam
'What could it be? I have to find that connection'
While I was drowned in thought, Odin suddenly said,
”You look to have a lot on yourthe rounds?”
”Oh, sure We also have to find a place to set up the radio trans-receiver”
”There is a spot I have in mind Follow me”
We go to the top of the mansion and set up the radio trans-receiver atop its steeple
With the center at Count Wolfenbrooke's territory, communications will be possible up to 1850 meters
I was also able to look around Odin's office
In the expansive office was Odin's personal safe
”Open”
At Odin's words, it made a sound and one side of it opened A small space the size of a study room appeared
”Wow”
”Magic is just as useful as science”
Odin's personal safe was filled with gold and weapons
I took out the comm devices and synthetic
Odin put them all in the safe and put one of the synthetic muscle suits on himself
”Now if I fought Lee Chang-wee I think it'd be doable”
Even without it, Odin was strong so with his power multiplied by twenty times, his confidence wasn't misplaced
A while later, the tailor that Odin called arrived
The old tailor measured my body here and there and said,
”There is a clothing piece that would fit you perfectly, shall I bring it? Or should I make it new?”
”The existing one will be fine”
”Understood”
The tailor politely bowed to me and left
Odin said,
”You will soon become a noble treated with such respect”
”Haha, got it”
”Well, you've et you a bath ready”
”Yes, thank you”
I returned to my chambers and sat on the side of my bed
A bit later, two servants and two maids streamed into my room
The two servants struggled to drag in a large wood bathtub
The pretty looking two maids politely bowed to me as they said,
”We have come on the order to attend to your bath”
”…… excuse me?”
”Please take off your clothes and come into the bath”
They just told me to take off my clothes and it flustered me
I can just picture Odin laughing at this somewhere
The two servants were respectfully keeping their heads bowed They were each holding a basket of bath products
'Well, doesn't matter'
I'll be a noble soon, so I'll have to get used to this kind of thing
”Alright”
I said as I took off ot into the wooden tub of ater
Only then did the maids raise their heads and come towards me and attend to me
Maybe it's just my mood
I felt like themy body
'I'm sure I'm just mistaken'
