Chapter 35
“Young lord! Young Lord?! Ah, Young Lord?!”
Luke, who was reading the 3 circle magic spell he borrowed from Mute, frowned when Philip suddenly started bothering him .
“What is it, Sir Philip? Why are you whining like a kid?”
“How can I not whine? When will you keep your promise about getting me a Gigant?”
Luke made a promise to Philip at the Gigant arena .
He told Philip that if he won over the Count Monarch’s Gigant, then he would buy Philip a new Gigant .
Encouraged with those words, Philip had won the match, but Luke became so busy with other stuff that he wasn’t able to keep his promise .
After all, Philip, who was tired of waiting, was trying to get his wishes completed in that way .
“You can’t be doing things like this . What would people say if they find out that the mighty warrior, a descendant of Rakan, didn’t keep his promise? I swear, they will point fingers at you . ”
‘Should I just turn this brat into a death knight?’
But rather than a stupid Death Knight, a living expert who spouts nonsense was much more useful .
On the other hand, Luke had made up his mind to spy on Veritas Magic Tower and the changes that happened there for the last 500 years .
“Okay . Since I made a promise, let’s buy a Gigant . ”
“Ahh?!”
Philip hurried and was ready to go out with Luke .
But when Sir Roger came after hearing the news .
“Young Lord, are you going to buy a Gigant?”
“Philip wanted to . ”
At those words, Philip began to become scared of Roger .
It was as if he had light in his eyes; he turned over to Luke and said,
“Then, I will go with you . ”
“The knight general will come?”
“Yes, since the monsters are very active these days, it isn’t easy to go out without an escort knight . So, I’d rather go myself . ”
Roger said that and shot an ugly look at Philip .
“Also, I know quite a lot about Gigants . If you take Philip with you, you will surely buy a defective Gigant that would just become bothersome in the future and have poor performance . ”
“No, no matter how you see me as a human…”
A small whine escaped from Philip’s mouth, but he soon stopped when he saw Roger clenching his fist .
After seeing that, Luke decided to take Roger with him too .
Knowing that not buying a Gigant was an option too .
It would be best to just buy it to shut Philip’s mouth .
Luke together with Roger and Philip traveled north .
At first, they thought about boarding a boat . However, due to the recent drought, the boat line in the large river was suspended so traveling by land was inevitable .
“As the river level had dropped, we can’t use the boat . ”
Tired of riding a horse, Philip grumbled . Roger shot back at him right away .
“The ships could have been stranded . But a knight that hates to ride horses? What would people say about that?”
“I am a rider . And the young Lord is going to buy a Gigant this time . How about buying a mobile? Mobiles are popular with nobles since it’s very fashionable . ”
“I don’t need it . I don’t want to spend money on worthless things . ”
A mobile, which runs on a steam engine, was a vehicle that wasn’t much different from a wagon in the means of transportation .
In addition, its speed was just as fast as a carriage, which was why it was considered as a luxury rather than a vehicle .
‘If I’m going to buy something, I’ll buy a trailer . Really heavy things such as Gigants can be loaded there, and it can transport many loads at once . ’
The trailer beside them was steam-based, and it was moving in the opposite direction .
There were five of them, carrying large pieces of cloth wrapped in a luggage compartment along with men and women dressed as merchants sitting around the luggage .
“What is it?”
“Well, it is a flag that I’ve never seen . ”
The three of them drove off the side of the road to let the trailers pass .
The trailer halted momentarily, and a dumb-looking man in the first trailer greeted them .
“Hello, men . Where are you traveling to?”
“… Well, how about you?”
Roger, their representative, asked .
“We are peddlers of the Shade Corp . We travel around the rural lands to buy or sell special goods . ”
“Shade Corp? I haven’t heard that name before . ”
“Hahaha, we just opened recently . ”
The man spoke while looking at Luke .
“Which land are you from?”
“We aren’t from a very famous place . We can’t say that any place is so famous these days . ”
“Hmm, is that so?”
“Yes, since we are busy, we’ll head first . ”
Philip looked disappointed . Luke and Philip moved quickly .
The man, who saw the three of them leaving, spoke to the wizard who was inside the trailer .
“Captain Tigel, he is definitely…”
“We are definitely going to meet the ‘target’ from the Rakan estate . But he is different from what we heard . ”
Tigel took out a piece of paper from his hand .
The paper had a description of Luke de Rakan, the young Lord of Rakan estate .
