Chapter 89: Does Flan like me?

Chapter 89 Does Flan like me?

Hmm I couldnt even have a conversation with him.

Reilly, the royal treasurer, gulped down his champagne and sighed. His face was full of regret.

Its too awkward to make an appointment with him.

His subordinate, who was next to him, opened his mouth.

Sir, you should give up and move on. Its pathetic to keep asking him why.

Whos asking? Im just curious, thats all.

Reilly answered calmly, but his subordinate was annoyed.

You should have some dignity. How can you just grab him and ask him why he gave away the gifts from the royal family to the knight department? Thats so inappropriate.

Im only asking for a reason.

Reilly pacified his subordinate and took another sip of his champagne. He felt a bit tipsy.

What was his reason?

Actually, the royal family had also sent some gifts to the magic department.

It was because they were interested in Flan.

But Flan had given them all away to the knight department.

Reilly was not angry, but he wanted to hear Flans thoughts.

Meanwhile, his subordinate picked up a cookie and ate it.

It was unexpectedly delicious. His shoulders shivered.

He spoke as he chewed the cookie. His expression was slightly brighter, thanks to the sweetness.

Everyone must be shocked. Well, who wouldnt be? Flan from the magic department is the sibling of Scarlet, the Knight of the Flickering Flame.

Nobody would be unaffected by this news. How long is the secret agreement with the press?

It ends when the hunting competition is over.

Who will benefit then? The sister? Or the brother?

As he muttered, Reillys eyes met Janets.

Janet, the leader of the Celestial Blessing Group, was guarding Scarlet like a shadow, but she didnt look very happy.

The leader of the Celestial Blessing Group doesnt look pleased.

Of course not. Who would like to be called a pet?

Well that might not be entirely wrong. Were not much different from the royal familys pets.

Were more like slaves. And besides, the truth hurts more than anything.

The Celestial Blessing group, the Clear Sky group, and so on There were always many knight groups that the royal family paid attention to.

But Reillys interest was only directed at Flan, and his subordinate was curious about that.

By the way, sir, what do you think?

Their eyes collided in the air.

About what?

The hunting competition. Its been very hot lately.

All the information was gathered in the royal family, and the stories circulated quickly within the royal family.

The sword and magic tournament, which had been experiencing many anomalies, was a hot topic in the royal family these days.

Thats why the subordinate asked him this question.

If he could hear Reillys insight, who knew the flow of money, he might make a fortune even in his sleep.

Just a moment.

Reillys eyes turned to the stairs.

Flan had just appeared from the second floor.

The subordinate was disappointed.

It was a rare opportunity to hear Reillys foresight.

They do look alike, now that I know theyre siblings. Look at those red eyes Theyre like burning.

The subordinate couldnt take his eyes off Flans face.

Flan is very handsome in a way that anyone would like.

At least, thats what the subordinate thought.

If he hadnt used magic, he would have been a pride of Udit, and they would have boasted about him.

Flan passed by the two of them, and Reilly stopped him this time.

Hey, Flan.

Flan stopped abruptly.

What?

He said in a small but clear voice.

Everyone around them perked up their ears to hear their conversation.

It was natural.

One was the royal treasurer, and the other was a famous magician.

And there was another element to look forward to.

Flan seemed to have no idea that Reilly was the royal treasurer.

It was naturally curious how he would react.

Did you not like the gifts from the magic department? I heard you received some good things.

Yeah. They were terrible.

The expressions of those who were watching became stupid.

!

No matter who the other person was, that was too much.

They were shocked by Flans attitude, and the strange conversation between the two.

They held their breath and watched.

Reilly, on the other hand, asked casually.

I see. Then, what should they have sent you? Im curious about that.

I dont need anything.

Flan also answered indifferently.

All a magician needs is time, and thats not something anyone can give.

With that, he walked towards the exit of the party hall. His footsteps echoed steadily.

Everyones hearts were filled with astonishment and curiosity.

Does he really not know who Reilly is?

Is he leaving society for good?

What is he going to do?

The finance staff next to him didnt know what to do.

Ro, ro, ro, royal treasurer-nim; He doesnt seem to have any idea who the royal treasurer is, does he? Oh, is it because of the tacky tie pin?

Both of them had glowing pins on their ties.

The third princess, who had made a fortune, returned to the palace with a happy heart, but there was no way to refuse.

Flans shocking behavior and sudden departure, the royal court started to burn brilliantly with that as fuel.

All I need is time

And Reilly smiled faintly.

Late at night.

Yushia was focused on writing.

She had a lot to do today.

In three days.

No, its past midnight, so two days.

She had to make a doll quickly before the main event.

Ugh

Making a glowing doll that looked exactly like Flan.

That was her goal until the hunting competition.

Of course, after making a fortune of 10,960 times, she gave glowing puzzles as gifts to all A-grade students. But Flan was an exception.

She would make a doll for him.

But, its not easy

It was easy to handle the materials, but it was hard to implement Flans cool appearance that Yushia imagined.

Just then, Trivia glowed.

It was an alarm light that Yushia had reprocessed herself.

It was a contact from Becky.

[*Becky]

[ Yushia~ Thanks for the glowing puzzle!]

[ Thanks for the perfume you gave me before too!]

[ Im sooo late to say hello]

Come to think of it, she had given Becky a perfume too.

She asked for a rose scent, so she gave her that.

Yushia was fiddling with her fingers to send a normal reply, when she suddenly thought of something.

[ Excuse me.]

[ Miss Becky!]

[ Yeah? If you have something to ask, ask quickly]

[ I have to sleep.]

[ If I get caught playing Trivia, Ill be arrested]

Arrested!

Yushia increased the speed of her fingers.

[ Do you know what Flan likes?]

[ If you do, please tell me!]

Even if she made a glowing doll that looked like Flan, she had plenty of materials left. She was going to make everything he liked into dolls.

Ten seconds.

One minute.

Three minutes.

There was no reply.

Did you get arrested?

When Yushia muttered that to Trivia, a reply finally came.

[ Um What Flan likes]

[ Me?]

Yushias actions stopped for a moment.

Soon, two more contacts came.

[ Just kidding. Kidding.]

[ Really kidding.]

Yushia took a deep breath three times.

And she sent a serious reply.

[ Yes. Thats not very nice.]

At dawn, when everyone was asleep.

I had just arrived at the neighboring city of Drun for the night auction.

Weve arrived, sir.

The coachman said.

Wait here.

Huh?

Dont worry. Ill give you a discount.

Oh, you dont have to! Thank you!

There were shops that could be called refined.

People called them luxury items, and they were common here.

I passed by all of them and headed quietly to the auction house.

Up to intermediate level.

The three events of the Black Demon Emperor, Hunting Competition, allowed the use of artifacts up to the intermediate level.

My goal was to acquire and modify anything related to ancient runes.

[ ! ]

And finally, I found an auction house with a single exclamation mark on the sign.

They said they named it that because they only deal with things that make you exclaim, but Ill see for myself what its really like.

I put on a mask first.

It was a plain white design without any decoration.

It was enough to hide my face.

It was a mask that Maiev, who was skilled at disguise, had given me.

There was virtually no risk of being exposed.

The guests who gathered at this auction were all carefully selected.

They would keep their secret oath until the end of the main event, but the number of participants in the night auction exceeded several hundred.

Since there were so many different people, I decided to use a mask.

It wouldnt hurt to be cautious.

It would be best to reveal myself after the event is over.

Besides, doing so would have a greater impact.

Did you make a reservation?

A large attendant greeted me.

I answered with the number I had received when I made the reservation.

1.

Oh, there is a special passage for the VIPs.

I followed him calmly into the interior.

The VIP waiting room was spacious and cozy.

Ill come and get you when its time. Please make yourself comfortable.

But shortly after, some unexpected people entered the VIP waiting room one after another.

They had short red hair like lively rose petals, and a well-balanced aura.

They were Janet, the leader of the Celestial Blessing, and her colleagues.

They sat down in front of me and started chatting.

Janet, he called you his pet dog? Wow, he has more guts than I thought. That bastard.

Watch your mouth, Bastian. Besides, I wasnt exactly polite to him either.

Really? Then you deserved a good punch. Congratulations.

Ting, Janet flicked a coin into the air. She repeated that action for a while and then opened her mouth again.

Bastian. What do you think of the Knight of the Blazing?

Suddenly?

Answer.

The man called Bastian shrugged his shoulders.

Well, I admire her. Shes like an idol.

Me too.

Janet continued in a serious tone.

And so do the other knights. Even at this moment, countless knights are swinging their swords to become like her. But.

She clenched the coin with her finger. Then the coin folded in half like paper.

If the magic department gets the credit, and the status of Udit falls, it would be a disaster. Thats why we have to win no matter what.

I could feel her determined will in her voice.

Janet had made up her mind.

Well, lets do our best. Were the Celestial Blessing, after all.

Bastian smiled slyly. Janet nodded slowly.

Yeah. This auction is no exception. Well get the item we aimed for.

Dont worry~ We brought enough gold coins. We just have to raise our hands.

Thats why, Bastian. You should be less complacent

Ah- enough with the nagging. Cant you call it relaxed?

Then.

The attendant appeared with a polite attitude.

Dear VIPs who visited the exclamation mark, the auction will start soon. Ill guide you.

The Celestial Blessing guys went ahead, and I walked silently behind them.

Soon, a wide auction hall came into view.

After we found our seats and parted ways, I muttered quietly.

What a pity.

I was planning to buy all the auction items today.
