How a Former Pro Takes Advantage by Doing an Easy Job

Gaiden episode 99

The people of Seina's hometown village went to the place with the feeling that it was worth losing money.

Now, by fully settling down in Ernesia Kingdom, they are making quite a name for themselves as a group of mercenaries who are commissioned for various tasks.

He immediately went to Seina's grandfather and the village chief who was leading the mercenaries and made a request directly.

“… … Since this is how it turned out, I want to hire as many people as possible.”

“Huh… … That's right.”

But somehow the atmosphere is strange.

Me too moment... … I feel so embarrassed that I want to sigh.

shit! This is crap!

“That’s what it means… …

“Not enough people?”

“… … It really made me feel ashamed.”

It seems that this side has been in a mess lately because of the lack of manpower. It's really slanted. slanted

“By the way, Mr. Arell? There doesn't seem to be much news from Seina or her lately... …

“ah! I can't help it! Then I will have no choice but to go and find out!”

fall right out I don't know what you're trying to say. No, I can't do that on my own.

Anyway, I thought this was pretty embarrassing.

‘If it's true, even if it takes some time, I'll teach someone else to take it... …

“… … I'm sorry to say that, Mr. Arell?”

“Oh, I thought about it for a while. I am sorry.”

“no. However, if it is simply to protect us without having to step directly at us, aren't there better people? chamberlain… …

“Like a dragon?”

I don't have to say it, but it's obvious. I smiled wryly at his question and shook my head.

“Those lizards can’t. In particular, it is prohibited to enter the gambling hall.??…

A face that doesn't understand.

what would it be

I had no intention of bringing dragons into a casino.

“Dragon and gold coins are not compatible.”

“???? yes?”

“Have you ever heard of this?

Dragons are creatures that naturally gather wealth.”

“Come to think of it, it's also a part that often appears in old fairy tales.”

It's probably something he's heard in his childhood when he says he misses you.

In fact, before exchanges with dragons began in earnest, their images were transcendental monsters that could not be easily defeated.

And if you defeat such a monster... … .

“I got the treasures in their rares, ate well and lived well. There is a story called.”

“???? If not.”

“It's not a story that's wrong. Actually, dragons are quite auspicious.”

In other words, their mana is quite auspicious.

“It's not to the extent that it affects the country, but it's a bit... … It works.”

For example, the reason why Delnef became a court dragon without luck is because his heart was damaged and his inherent mana quality was disturbed.

Recently, I took measures to block their characteristics throughout the territory, so even if dragons gather, their money luck will not be exerted.

“However, it has quite an effect on individuals.”

For example, if the dragon is the dealer, the customer can never win money in the gambling house.

Unless you're a bit of a nerd.

“Isn’t that a good thing?”

“A gambling place that is too bad won’t have customers coming.”

If you don't give them fun to pick, they will naturally decline.

There must be an exquisite balance.

“And they are strong. Guests may feel instinctively uncomfortable.”

“… … We also have a strong impression on young people.”

“It's a different matter if the face is scary and the mood is different.”

As an analogy, it's like putting a snake in a den of frogs.

Anyway, it's not suitable.

“I like being as normal as possible.”

“Aren't you referring to races other than dragons?”

“Well, other than those guys, I don’t have any reason to be reluctant… …

The reason why I don't put a different race in the nomination is because hiring them is opening my hand to Kelia.

I don't have a good heart enough to give more shares to other countries.

I just noticed that his meaning was different from that.

“Do you have any good ideas?”

“It's just a story that the old man heard.”

He honestly said something to me, as if he was not sure.

… … A story about some pretty good people.

After a while.

I tried to make contact with the very useful ones.

I sent someone to make contact with him, and after waiting for about a week, he finally came to me as requested.

“yes. I am Beltels, the head of the clan.”

“I’m sorry to have to come to you one by one.”

“no. It is an honor to say that the renowned Arelernesia called me.”

“It's a waste of time to talk dirty. Sit down first.”

I glanced at their features and treated them lightly with a light smile.

All of them are men.

It is also a rabbit beastman with a pure white appearance and long ears.

I thought it felt familiar somewhere, but I soon realized it.

“Right. Some of the children my daughter and I were playing with were also of the same kind as you.”

“yes. She is my daughter.”

“indeed… … Right.”

I got it. Except for the impression, the overall appearance was similar.

“This is a very strange relationship. hmm.

So, is the child here too?”

“no. This time only me and a few young guys came.”

“Then next time, regardless of this, you can come over to play privately. Arna said she missed it quite a bit.”

“It is an honour.”

Saddam should be able to do this soon.

Immediately I decided to bring out the reason for calling them.

“Actually, I heard that you guys are looking for work in Ernesia Kingdom.”

“… … It is.”

The person who told me was Seina's grandfather.

It seems that some of their clans and mercenaries have worked together in cooperation.

Do you think it's pretty good because you're steady and capable?

“Then, do you have any intention of accepting a request like this?”

Taking off my luck like that, I said only the circumstances that didn't matter if I talked about them.

The construction of a casino and the need for talented people to work as dealers there.

After hearing the story, Beltels pretended to be worried for a while. sneakily look into my eyes

“Tell me.”

“yes. It's a presumptuous remark, but I thought that if it were us, we might be able to fully meet Allel Ernesia's request.”

“Hmm… … That's good confidence.”

It's not just about being confident.

“Tell me. How can you meet my expectations?”

It's not at all unpredictable, but I waited patiently for his explanation to see his attitude.

“yes. Arell-sama wants people with high physical abilities and not bad memory, right?”

“Yes, it is.”

Well, the memory part doesn't really matter. Because there must be a way somehow.

“If I had to say… … Yes, it must be a gut feeling.”

“It’s a gut feeling… …

“There will be all kinds of gamblers there.”

I'll control the atmosphere to some extent, so heinous things won't happen easily, and if it's a person like that, I'll filter it out before they come in in the first place.

But ordinary gamblers can't help it.

In the first place, most gamblers are sincere in their conduct.

“They're going to do pretty much any trick, and you have to have eyes to tell them.”

“… … If so, we may even more meet that condition.”

It's a confident speech.

“Hoo? okay?”

I laughed leisurely and waited for an explanation to hear the rationale.

“In short, are you asking me to hire you?”

“I don't mean to say anything shameless like that. It means that if you hire us, we may be able to help.”

“Okay, let’s make sure. On what basis are you speaking?”

“… … Do you know the characteristics of our clan?”

“characteristic?”

I've never really heard of it It's not like there's nothing to do to figure out the characteristics of all the different races in the first place.

Before that, what is unique to rabbits?

never heard of it anywhere else

“It is said that we were originally a powerful clan within Kelia.”

“It’s past tense… …

“Yes, because it is ruined.”

In the past, the Zelnian Holy Kingdom... … They were attacked when they were in the midst of human supremacy, and only a few of their own people survived.

“It is unfortunate. As a fellow human being, it is truly unfortunate.”

“We know that not all humans are like them. If you resent humans more than anything else, you wouldn't have left Kelia.”

“So, what does that past have to do with your characteristics?”

According to him, in order to survive the persistent pursuit of the Zelnian Castle, the rabbits went into the deep forest and therefore had to survive in a harsher environment than other races.

“It was a rougher and more dangerous place than other places.”

That's why the rabbits up to that point had no clue if they were to survive.

“Perhaps it was because I was living in danger, my senses naturally began to sharpen.”

“iced coffee… … What could it be?”

Dull guys don't survive, only guys who are better suited to survive survive.

The guy who lives is strong.

It's cruel, but that might also be the law of the world.

“Accordingly, at some point among us, there was a clan that could read each other's thoughts.”

“oh. That's a really bizarre ability.”

Listening to the way they describe it is also a kind of skill.

There are quite a few ways to infer the pattern of thought by combining various things, such as the body's reaction and the shaking of the pupil.

They do it instinctively.

“indeed… … That would help.”

I raised the corners of my mouth as I understood the true meaning of Beltels' words.

If you can read the other person's thoughts, you can never lose the game.

The ideal qualities to make a dealer in a casino.

Not to mention, they also have high physical abilities, so they can protect themselves in times of emergency.

“By the way, I want to ask you what you think. Can you read mine too?”

“… … It's not that powerful. It doesn't work for those who have magical tools to protect themselves like Arel.”

That doesn't matter too much. After all, the casino's facilities are going to ban magic tools from being brought into it.

And if you can pierce even that, you won't be able to stop it.

“It’s okay. pretty good... …

At least in terms of qualifications, there is no reason for me to issue a rejection notice.

“Okay, hire me.”

“yes… … Then select a member of the clan that meets the criteria and dispatch... …

“No, it would be better if all of you come to my estate.”

“I will… … yes?”

As if he had heard it wrong, his ears trembled once. You have good hearing, but pretend you didn't hear anything.

“All come.”

Tantalizingly, what are we going to use by hiring only 10 or 20 people?

If you want to collect it all at once. The whole box to get rid of. That is the Arel-style recruitment method.

Above all, it has other meanings, but well, that's a bonus among bonuses.

No matter how unexpected this was, the chief of the rabbits broke into a cold sweat.

“But not all of our clan can help.”

“doesn't care. What do you think welfare is?”

Even if you don't have student loans or anything, it's like paying for employment is expensive.

“Above all, you… … I know you haven’t found a place to officially settle down yet, right?”

He has gained a close friendship with the Duke of Gast and has his family stay at his estate, but it is temporary.

No matter how good people are, if they continue forever, they will be in trouble.

“I will give you citizenship formally.”

“We are heterogeneous.”

“There are also dwarves in our estate.

… … There are also pitiful lizards.”

If you think about it, there are all kinds of guys. So no one will find it strange.

“Now, don’t you think good opportunities like this are common?”

I'm not sorry

Talent is needed, but if there is none, there are alternatives.

“… … of course. How can we refuse?”

You don't even need to weigh it. It must have been overwhelmingly heavy.

Above all, it would be better for them to accept it.

Beltels immediately knelt down and accepted my offer as if surrendering.

“Okay, let’s talk more about the details later…” …

“however… …

The chief spoke cautiously.

Just looking at him, he seems to want to ask me something.

“what?”

“Why are you giving this opportunity to my family? … … If this is rude, I will ask for forgiveness first.”

“Home is an obvious question.”

Rather, it would be better to tell

“… … What would that be?”

I said seriously and solemnly to him, who had a face that I couldn't guess.

“Coming to think of it, rabbit ears seemed to be the norm in casinos.”

That's what I mean when I say talented. How

a former pro
