Chapter 113 – How to Tell Someone Who Isn’t Human?
Robert did not directly support himself using his wealth of experience, but simply supported a huge amount.
He chose the safest one among the options given the name of helping and supporting the research of Isaac, the eldest son and close friend of a prestigious magical family.
Since Isaac always had huge fixed expenses for research funds, he had no place to pull money right away for self-interest and unpleasant work.
The position of a cadet, even if he is the eldest son of the family, must attend the academy and show sincerity and pay attention to his grades.
Even now, I am bursting with astronomical money, but there was a problem in attracting more money than this, so I am glad that this money that Robert supported.
But at the same time it was disappointing.
‘No matter what, we’re already on the same boat… It’s not about money, it’s about pushing me comfortably from the side.’
If he had made the right decision, he would have been honest with whom he was targeting.
Speaking of Chloe Drit, she was a student in the same department, so even Robert would be surprised.
Her beautiful appearance and the way she keeps the virtue of grace and moderation with her silence. On top of that, if he knew the prestige of the Dritna family, Robert would be more than willing to admit his own ambition and sense of challenge.
Robert, who was considered a cadet aspiring to be a knight and a heroine who wore a lot of women, simply applied and pulled out of his feet?
Is the result of his research not as urgent as he thought? It was an unexpected and timid move.
Smart-knock-
“Just come in.”
Kkike-kkak-!
The man who quietly opened the door and entered confirmed that the door was locked, bowed his head in front of Isaac and whispered.
“…Bocchan. I’m sorry, but it seems difficult to find a suitable person in the capital.”
Isaac frowned, not taking his eyes off the flasks filled with colorful reagents.
It wasn’t because of the progress of the research, but because I didn’t like the reports coming out of Philip’s mouth.
I had high expectations for Philip, but after hearing this news for several days, only disappointment grew.
When her father asked her to send Philip away, he was questioned how much he was plotting something strange… He finally gave permission after a long list of excuses he had prepared in advance.
However, if the result is like this, isn’t it worth listening to the scolding for a long time?
“Tsk…”
Isaac, whom Philip called upon his arrival in the capital, did not speak for a long time.
It is enough to show money and promise a certain amount.
After casting her bait, Phillip pondered and decided to end his magical contract and help with his love business.
The content explained before the contract itself was clearly untrue and light. Hearing this, Philip laughed heartily and even said that he would step in if things didn’t go well.
However, when Philip heard the name of the person he was targeting after finishing the contract, he was surprised and had a seizure asking him to reconsider the contract, but it was too late to pull him out.
After a long time of persuading him that there would be no problem if he cleaned up the used paddle quickly, Philip finally raised the white flag.
He has a contract, so he can’t avoid it already.
Isaac had expected him to be unable to deny his words in the first place. Philip is addicted to gambling to the extent that no one in his family knows about it.
Severe enough to eat his fingers off and not quit.
If he didn’t have the ability, he would have already been abandoned by the family, but because he has reasonable ability, he coaxed the requirement that he was addicted to gambling and kept him in the family.
Isaac knew that he had been struggling lately with gambling debts, so he thought this was a natural outcome.
But it’s annoying because I didn’t expect the work to be blocked.
He signed a contract with more than enough money to pay off his gambling debts, but when he heard the bad news, a fire broke out inside him.
“…I bet that much money, but no one is willing to do it?
Of course, when the work is over, I’ll kill them all and carry out the killing and extinction cleanly.
If you look at the outside before you open the inside, life is exciting for tramps without registered status! Isn’t this a great opportunity to turn around?
Why don’t you take this chance? It didn’t make sense in Isaac’s head.
“Haaa-“
Isaac took off his glasses and wiped them with a puff of his breath, frowning his face.
I thought that if I presented enough money, reckless trash would line up imitating moths, but it was different from what I expected.
Aren’t we wasting time because we haven’t been able to find the right person until now?
“It wasn’t that there were no applicants at all, but they were all unqualified.”
“If the quality is too poor… Not even to the level of a backstreet thug?”
Philip affirmed Isaac’s words and attached an explanatory tag.
“It was just that much. If you use the idiots and get swept away without a chance to use your hands, the young lady’s awareness will only rise, so the first start will be the end. So I thought I should prepare properly with talented people.”
“…That’s right. You only get one chance, and you have no choice but to be suspicious twice.”
The same person appears twice at the perfect timing to save a woman in crisis? Is there anything more strange than that?
Since you are a person who has not come out well because you are locked in a room, if you dig deep, you may immediately become suspicious.
“That’s why we need to find someone who should have the skills to pressure the academy cadets, no matter how fresh they are.
“You mean you can’t make progress until you say who the target is?”
It was a structure of a vicious cycle that Isaac could understand if the other person was thorough in his own eyes.
The right person who has been told what to do will want to check the target before the contract – without a contract, the side can’t talk about who they’re targeting.
“Bocchan…Those who have lived in the shadows for a long time without dying are like a swarm of rats. They will sense and avoid disaster and ominous things faster than anyone else without hesitation, and every day must have been fiercer than anyone else in the shadow of the capital city. Is.”
“If it’s not easy to catch… How else?”
“Anyway…At times like this, it seems better to give up on the capital side and bring in people from other estates that don’t know the context. It’s the same for cleaning up and progressing the work. In small-scale estates, there are frogs in the well who think they are the strongest. It’s more common than you think.”
Isaac finally erased his displeasure at Philip’s words and raised one corner of his mouth.
“Can I ask you a favor? I’m a little busy with experiments these days.”
The day he blew off one of his fingers while gambling with a trashy hand if he had to pick the biggest mistake in Philip’s life? Absolutely not.
He just asked what he was doing right now. He prided himself on being a veteran.
Find people who will act to scare you into flirting with a woman…
Hearing the thought of a seven-year-old immature right in front of his nose made him laugh, but Philip persevered.
He said that he would give a ridiculous amount of money if he helped, so from Philip’s point of view, he was too complacent, thinking that he was a snuffer with only a study head and rotting money.
The moment I heard the ridiculous plan and saw the amount, I volunteered to help.
It was because it felt like a rope that came down to me when I was struggling.
But when she heard who it was she had to scare. Philip understood the human heart that was deceived by the devil.
I put a reasonable explanation and stopped it several times, but this boy doesn’t seem to have any intention of stopping his insane plan.
Even now… I was regretting it a thousand times in my heart.
However, Philip, who has already listened to the internal plan, has no other options.
It is to realize the embarrassing delusion of an immature person who only rots money without social experience. It’s the most absurd and embarrassing thing he’s ever done, but the stakes are the biggest.
It’s a trashy plan that I’m afraid someone will see… But what can I do because I’ve offered an amount that’s too big to refuse.
It was he who laughed at Isaac inside and accepted it without question, so there is only one way now.
“···We will do our best.”
At this opportunity, Philip, who had been trying to avoid his life by being seen well by the next head of household, completely changed his mind.
The hobudog itself.
If the eldest son, who will be responsible for the future of the family, is like this… Then the Count Malloy family should be considered the end.
He vowed that if he finished this job well, he would end his gambling debt and spend the rest of his life relaxing in a quiet estate.

From early in the morning, I watched Rike go to the academy, showing off his unique freshness, and then I returned to the yard and sat down.
I plan to go to the academy in a little while, but before that, I want to communicate as much as possible with Gleipnir and do some training.
“Gleipnir”
Charreu
Grab Gleipnir with one hand and pull it out gently, and with the other hand put it in your inventory and pull out a piece of metal the size of your palm.
Dalgrak.
This piece of metal in my hand- In my previous life, this was commonly called a ‘carabiner’.
It is a friend and cousin of the hook, commonly known as camping equipment. It was sold under the same name in this world.
I had stacked several high-strength carabiners in my inventory with the thickness and length reduced to my taste.
Before I got Gleipnir, I attached carabiners or shackles to both ends of the chains of the two chains that I used to connect weapons like Warhammers.
I’ve felt that way was efficient in using a weapon called chain, so it’s the same this time.
Yesterday, I sat down with Rike and tried various things, but I couldn’t attach a weapon, so I tried to follow the same procedure with Gleipnir today.
Click!
It was the moment to connect the carabiner to the starting point of Gleipnir.
Took-
As if by magic, the object fell to the floor as soon as the carabiner was hooked up.
“Yes··?”
Yet again.
Took-
Looking at the carabiners lying on the floor, I thought over and over again about what this was all about.
Isn’t it a question that no one can ask for an answer to?
Took!
I tried it one more time and felt a subtle but definite difference. If earlier it felt like ignoring it and dropping it, now it feels like pushing it away.
It’s like a child putting tasteless food in his mouth and then kicking it! The act of spitting out.
‘Is this a child or a mugoo…?’
A part that was never thought to be blocked is blocked, so even a person who has gone through all the hardships of childbirth is dumbfounded.
In the long run, appeasement takes precedence over force or anger.
I scratched my forehead to get rid of the piling up embarrassment, then asked in the softest tone possible.
“…Don’t you want to do this?”
