”What will you do?” asked Jeremy, Derek's subordinate
Derek had invested in Ilya betting on Elsanad's downfall, but the results had turned in an unexpected direction Crockta had accused both Ilya and Elsanad
“Wait a minute”
Derek riting at his desk in his office Jere down his pen
“I wish you luck… Let's pray that the Ashi+ra floill bloom soon… Which one is okay?”
Jeremy's eyes widened It was because there was a smile in Derek's voice
“I think both are good”
“If you think it is bad, then you can tell me”
Jeremy nodded and asked Derek a question “Is the person a man or a woman?”
“A man”
“Then the former would be better”
“But he is an elf”
“Then I will recommend the latter”
“You are very prejudiced about gender and species”
Derek laughed and picked up his pen againThe sentence about the flowers bloo was derived froarland ood luck, but in a less dry manner
“Do you kno long it has been since I had to write a letter to fix an unexpected problem?”
“I've never seen it happen”
”Yes It was so long ago that I don't even remember it”
Derek placed the letter in an envelope and sealed it with candle wax and handed it to Jere”
“Is this as you expected?”
“Jeremy, victory is only worth it if you e to jump over it”
Jeremy was told to deliver a letter The recipient was a name that he didn't know
”Who is it?”
“Who? My new puppet”
Derek laughed “Our orc warrior has upset Arnin, so now I need someone to fix it”
”Then…”
“The bad guys have been cleansed However, new villains always appear in the world”
Jeremy nodded This hy he followed Derek Jereaps in Derek He responded as if everything was as expected, and produced results according to his oill
It was also true for his incident Crockta did things in a way that they hadn't expected Ilya, whom they had invested in, was now a crieon Derek had said that this was unexpected, but Jeremy didn't think so Derek had plenty of precautions for just in case
In the larger picture, Derek still controlled everything according to his will
“Also, pass on the following information to Crockta”
“Even though he broke the contract?”
“In a way, I was in the wrong”
Crockta had placed a condition in the contract He wouldn't do anything that would go against a warrior's honor
“I didn't know that Ilya and Elsanad were such villains, so I suppose it was to be expected that Crockta would be so willful”
”I understand”
”Please This time, I hope that you will help Crockta a bit”
Jereain and nodded The recipient was the Arnin Plains administrator, Enyanis
Now that Ilya and Elsanad had fallen, Arnin would need a newas he accepted Derek's help, he would become the new mayor of Arnin The citizens would be enthusiastic about hi his deceit This was the world that Jeremy saw
The two politicians turned out to be criinning As there was a lot of excitement for a fresh start, new politicians appeared in Arnin and spoke about clearing up the ugly past
The name of the honorary citizen Crockta also filled the city However, the orc didn't want the attention and didn't appear in front of the people There was a huge response for Enyanis, the elf who appointed him as the honorary citizen
A statue of the honorary citizen was erected in Arnin Square It was of an orc, not an elf, nor a human
They didn't write his name in respect for his will, but all of the citizens of Arnin kneho the honorary citizen was It was an expression of the citizen's wish for an 'honorary citizen' to appear again whenever Arnin was corrupted
“I’m tired”
Crockta hid his body because of his popularity A hood covered his face, but it couldn't hide the orc's unique size, so he refrained fro out as much as possible
“It is because you are the only orc in Arnin,” Enyanis said
“Are you really leaving?”
“I have so to do”
”Too bad It would be nice if you could've stayed longer”
Derek had unexpectedly given Crockta information about the next destination Crockta beca Balhae base The name of the destination was Chesswood
This tier said that Crockta could do what he wanted It was hard for Crockta to guess Derek's intentions, but he chose not to think too deeply He would do what he needed to do
“This was the first place I saw you”
Crockta and Enyanis were standing on the Arnin Plains where they first met Enyanis nodded He looked at the rock that Crockta left behind 'A warrior doesn't attack unarmed people' The thrill Enyanis felt at that time was still vivid in his mind
The orc in front of him was the type of person that he had never met before Many people spoke about justice with their mouths, but it was the first ti forward to the orc's actions in the future
“Where are you going?”
”Chesswood”
“Chesswood…”
It is the land of humans
And the word that best suited it was 'pandeht turn out well
”Good luck I hope that every step you take is filled with Ashi+ra flowers”
”Thank you”
Crockta didn't knohat it iood Suddenly, a yell was heard fro the triters on the plains
”Wahh! Help me!”
Aaway from a triter, but Crockta wasn't the one who h the air and pierced the triter It was the skill of the user Yurin, who had joined the Arnin Plain's Rescue Unit after Crockta She winked as she noticed Crockta's gaze Crockta nodded
In addition to Yurin, other NPCs and users earing the red rescue vest that symbolized the Arnin Plains' Rescue Unit Those who didn't have the ability relied on the rescue unit to help them out with the triters The Arnin Plains were filled with a lot of warmth
”This is your heritage”
The nureatly decreased Crockta hadthe criticism towards other species
“Well, let's live and see each other again”
It was time to leave Crockta extended his fist in the orcwas strange, but he could feel so seemed to rise in him as his fist met the orc's hard skin
The two people firmly bumped fists
Crockta turned around The large orc reat orc left
”Phew”
So blankly It was Jeremy, who had been sent by Derek Jeremy whistled as he stood beside Enyanis
”Phew That orc is truly frightening”
Enyanis stared at him Jeremy turned around Both of them had already talked to each other Jeremy asked, “Anyway, have you made up your mind?”
“You will definitely keep the promise?”
”Of course We’ll help you”
“I didn't know a mere money lender would have so much money”
”Watch your mouth Derek is more than that”
Enyanis nodded ”Okay”
”It’s a deal”
