Chapter 69
Despite his threat, the two brothers, who were already too excited about making money, barely registered the fear,
We dont do things like scams! Should we tell you where we live instead? Youll trust is if we do that right?
Trust us! Im confident we can do well!
Rather, they showed even more enthusiasm. Levan cleared his throat, asking with a more natural expression,
But by the way, why are you so excited?
We can make money!
Of course were excited! If we just do the job well, we can earn 1 shilling a day!
Was one shilling a huge amount of money?
Of course, for rural field workers, it wasnt too small an amount. However for him, who had been a mercenary for a long time, one shilling was not much money.
He had lost one leg and was in charge of his colleagues meals, but he was still getting paid similarly to his colleagues, and the salary was quite a hefty amount since the job of a mercenary was difficult and very dangerous.
Well, for you guys, 1 shilling must be big. Okay, Ill tell you the ingredients to buy to today.
As Levan said so, Joshua took out a small notebook and a portable feather pen from his pocket. They were relics that had once been used by his father.
What should we buy?
Levan was a little surprised to see that.
You guys know how to write?
Yes, of course we know,
It was quite surprising to see that there was a child in the rural periphery of the Empire who could read and write when eve grown adults didnt know how to.
It was even more surprising for him, who firmly believed in that strange myth that one would only be courageous when they didnt spend their time with reading or writing.
Since you dont have to memorise it all, its better. Then Ill tell you what we need.
As Levan told them which ingredients to buy for that day, Joshua diligently wrote it all down.
I dont mind if its more expensive, make sure you bring good, fresh ingredients. Weve had some high-ranking guests show up yesterday so I have to pay more attention to the food,
Whos here? Andrew asked,
The mage who joined the subjugation. Because of that bastard orc sorcerer.
Mage? Really?
For rural children like them, mercenaries who wielded swords and knives were of great interest, but a mage was something that was difficult to see even once in their lifetimes.
Then where is the mage?
When Andrew asked with shining eyes, Levan shook his head.
They were already precious guests for the mercenaries, how could he let these kids go over and bother them.
No. Theyre high-ranking people. You cant go and see them. Just know that theyre here.
Joshua, whos eyes were also sparkling brightly turned to Andrew,
Wow! Awesome! Andrew hyung did you know that there was a mage here?
No I didn know! How could I know that! There werent even any rumours!
Levan couldnt help but smile as the children chatted excitedly like theyd just discovered some kind of treasure.
Anyway, move quickly. You wont be able to bring everything back at once with those small bodies so you might have to go back and forth a few times a day.
Yes sir!
