Chapter 149: Chapter 149. Back To The Capital City...
While Myne was thinking about giving The Little Fenrir his new name, The knight leader started talking to him with a tired voice.
"Lord Myne, thank you for waiting. The total results are out…The conclusion, you've worked too hard. Firstly, the dismantling of the materials is flawless. Though the amount is less than the adventurers' who cheated, the points are high, since all of them are strong monsters and the quality is also many times better.
Honestly speaking, even if we overlook their cheating, it will still be your victory without any doubt. You really overdid it."
Well, this should be enough to satisfy my curious Father-In-Law and Brother-In-Law. Also, it seem like I underestimate those monster's value because they are easily get defeated by Fenrir's children, if I know they are so valuable then I wouldn't have taken out so many of them, Myne thought with a smile on his face.
"Thank you for your compliment, by the way, what are you going to do with those materials?" Myne asked curiously seeing knights putting materials he brought into their own storage bag.
"According to the instructions we received, after checking the materials and announcing the result we would take them back to the capital city, but don't worry we won't take them for free, we will buy them according to market price," The knight leader replied.
Then the knight leader purchase all the materials, which cost him 3 platinum and 230 gold coins, but because money was paid by the royal family and he is just a tool man, the knight leader didn't care about it and generously paid Myne with a big smile on his face.
After which Myne bid farewell to his new fans, and returned to the capital city through the royal carriage which was already waiting for him.
...
"By the way, Fenrir, would it be really okay to tell our king about you? What if information about you gets leaked and some idiot made trouble for you later?" Myne who has nothing to do in the carriage asked Fenrir who has start talking with him some minutes ago, as she also getting bored in her cavern.
"Aah, that's not a problem. This misconduct of the Hume race, considering Myne you my best friend, I will specially forgive it this time, but there definitely won't be a second time.
If it not because of you, I would have long ago visited your king," Fenrir said dominatingly, giving Myne a lot of material to imagine what kind of sense it would be if Fenrir in her angry mood visits the capital city, maybe she returns from there, at least half of capital city would have disappeared from Augusta Kingdom's map.
"You must correctly convey my message to your king that I am not someone they can mess with.
If your king takes my words lightly, then he will experience the real terror firsthand, also don't be polite while conveying my message, do it dominating, you are my reparative you should be bold and brave enough to not give a f*ck about anyone," Fenrir said again after getting no reply from Myne while thinking that Myne might get scared from his King.
Bold and brave huh? If I really did that Sylphy would definitely eat me alive, after all, no child like that someone insults their parents, even if it is their lover, this kind of thing is still not tolerable.
And here I thought Fenrir is very intelligent but when it comes to her children she immediately throws her intelligence out of the door, Myne thought helplessly, now after experimenting with how telepathy skill works he can control his thoughts so Fenrir can't hear them, otherwise, she might have already started scolding him after hearing them.
By the way, currently, Fenrir does not know that The King whom she is insulting with her all her heart is actually Myne's soon-to-be Father-In-law.
"Ahhm, Fenrir, are not you giving me too much of a big responsibility? Why don't you personally meet our king and settle this entire matter? You can also ask for compensation, our king probably does not mind giving you some interesting thing in exchange for saving thousands of lives of his people," Myne said trying to get out of trouble water.
But he still underestimates Fenrir's laziness, and she immediately rejects his proposal, "Sorry Myne, I can't leave the forest, there are some annoying incests here, who will crush me quite a lot of problems if I left that forest for too long. But you don't have to think so deeply about it.
There probably aren't that many fools who would take my words lightly, knowing that it was said by a Divine Beast, at least your king doesn't come in this category. Also if your king doesn't believe in your words you can show him your power, and I'll become your backer.
If someone has ulterior motives about your skills, after knowing that I am your backer, they would definitely drop their useless thoughts," Fenrir said confidently, but in Myne's mind, those words are no different than a death warrant or maybe scarier than that if he gets caught alive.
Maybe I shouldn't always believe in whatever Appraisal skill shows me, it clearly didn't show an idiot tag in her status, this kind of huge default can cost me my life one day. I should be more careful while talking about my skills in future. Is she really live hundreds of years? If yes then how can she be so ignorant about Hume's nature?
Don't people say that in the old time, Divine Beast and Hume fight with demons together? How can she never see Hume's greed? If someone asks me then I would that the greediest creature among all races would be Hume, and she is telling me that I announce to everyone that I can steal other skills and can also transfer them to whomever I want?
Did she really think that I live so long that now I can die peacefully or painfully? People really shouldn't stay in a place for too long, this can make them think that they are strongest being alive and no one can hold a candle in front of them, Myne thought he now having headaches and does not understand what to say about this super old mother who thinks herself almighty.
"Fenrir, dear, please drop the idea of telling anyone about my skills, although I didn't have any doubt that you are very powerful but this doesn't mean that you can protect me all the time, what if someone out of jealousy assassinates me in my sleep after knowing that I can take away their skills? Then how are you going to save me?
You might not be able to take my revenge unless you destroy the entire Hume race. So for my safety please, if you really consider me your best friend, then bury my skills information deepest part of your heart, this would be best for both of us," Myne said calmly.
Fenrir after hearing Myne worry, also calm down and thought about it carefully and after realising that what Myne said made sense and she literally plan her best friend's funeral with her own hands, she couldn't help but take a deep breath.
"Maybe you are right, then how about it, you can use your skills openly and when someone asks how can use those skills you can say that I bestow some of my skills to you temporarily as the gift of saving my child, anyway those curious people have no way to know that whose skills are they, and if they still don't believe then just open a portal and I will come there personally and let them know with whom they are messing," Fenrir said after thinking for awhile.
"Well, this is a nice plan, we can indeed do that, thank you Fenrir, I really didn't expect that you can also think of such a good plan," Myne said with surprise.
"Hey, what do you mean, are you saying that I am a fool who can't use her brain? Boy, do you have a death wish?" Fenrir in her house raise her eyebrow with an angry expression after hearing Myne's compliment which was more of an insult to her.
"Lord Myne, Lord Myne..."
Just when the conversation between Myne and Fenrir is about to go in the wrong direction, the carriage driver's voice brought Myne a rare opportunity to save his ass.
"Okay, Fenrir let's talk some other time I think someone is calling me, see you later then, bye," Saying such Myne hurriedly disconnect the telepathy link with Frnrir and took a breath of relief.
Hoo, I almost arranged my own beating, It seems like after staying with Aisha for so long, I am also affected by her bad habit of shamelessly mocking others on their face, Myne thought worrying as this is not a nice thing.
"Yes, what happened?" Myne after getting rid of unnecessary thought asked the carriage driver.
"Nothing, I just wanted to inform you that we will soon reach the capital city," The carriage driver reply calmly.
"Okay, I understood," Myne said, and side away the curtain from the window of the carriage door and looked outside. The sky already starts changing its colour, and various types of birds flying in the sky enjoying the cool evening air happily.
"One more day passed away just like that, sigh..."
"Wafuu?"
