“It’s not that they come often, but they come constantly. And how could it be that all of them are young ladies from precious houses who do not know the world? Even though I’ve explained everything in advance, they say I don’t know and insist on asking for the investment money? I don’t know if it’s a good investment. It’s a new business that you must hear something strange from somewhere, it will explode in the near future, and it is a business that the imperial family looks after… Whew.”

The fact that his hands continued to shake while he continued to speak seemed to make his teeth tremble just thinking about it.

She checked all the papers, crumpled them up, put them in a thick leather envelope, and handed them to me.

“Investors don’t seem to be of that kind at least, but you’d better listen to what I said earlier. If you don’t check it properly, you’ll really blow it all up, right? It is your own money, so use it carefully.”

“hahahaha, thanks for the words. I will engrave it deeply in my heart. ah. It’s written on the documents, but I’m currently a student at the academy, so please make sure to put the communication line that way. Our home is Maidheaden in the south, so it is very difficult to confirm if it is delivered there.”

“You don’t have to worry too much. Because that part is always basically checked. Then go in and take a look, handsome Confucius.”

I left the building with Irene seeing me off.

Will the method used in the game work this time?

I’ve already checked several times and confirmed that the knowledge I know – for example, where items are hidden or their efficacy – is still common sense in this world, but this time it can be said that the case is a little different.

In the game, there was a way to be called by investing the goods you have through the guild system, and among the guilds that exist in the system, the place with the highest investment success rate was Horace and Esmond, which I had just invested in.

Although these two places had a very low return rate of 10% of the investment amount, the success rate was close to 90%, so it was always a favorite investment destination for users who wanted to increase their goods stably.

And Valentine’s case could be seen as a little different. In the game, Valentine’s had a crazy rate of return of dividends of 1.5 times the amount invested, but on the contrary, the success rate was only 20%.

However, as in many other parts of the game, there was something that could be called a bug in this system, so a way to make a profit with a 100% probability if you invested an amount in a specific time period was known.

For example, the time at which the investment contract was being written was 3:48 PM, so if you invest 30 gold, 300 gold, and 3000 gold according to the hour unit 3 excluding the minute unit at the end, you will receive 1.5 times each amount as dividends unconditionally. It can.

And like the other errors, this one wasn’t fixed until the beta test was over, and that’s what I’m experimenting with now.

Unlike buried items, this is actually a guild operated by people, so it was necessary to check how it is actually applied.

If the law I know works as it is in this case, then I can get a solid funding line without worrying about running dry.

I earnestly prayed that the law would be applied this time as well.

“Oh, where else is this… driving me crazy… ”

I’ve been wandering the dark back alleys of Drachton for two hours now.

By the time I left the building, the sun was already setting, so I decided to leave for the academy tomorrow.

I must have come this way because a local told me that I had to go around the back alley to find the inn.

Now that I think about it, it seems that I came from the other side of the fork in the road…

Contrary to my wish to quickly get out of here, the surrounding landscape was gradually changing into a ghastly slum.

Unlike the main roads, which were clean and straight, the back alleys were meandering and intertwined in all directions, and instead of finding an exit, I was gradually sinking into the darkness of the alleys.

I feel like a butterfly caught in a spider’s web.

“Oh really… Aren’t you going to meet a robber like this? Quickly before something annoying happens… ”

-Click!!

As if my words were a signal, suddenly the sound of something breaking was heard from a block or two away, and the sound of people shouting began to echo throughout the alley.

Most of the noise was made up of male voices, but when I listened closely, I felt like there were female voices mixed in occasionally.

“… That… Stop it… !”

“… Magic… Year… ”

“… hand… dare… !”

It’s hard to hear, but it feels like several men and one woman are confronting each other… What should I do?

After all, if a woman loses, it’s likely that she will end up in a rough situation.

After a brief thought, I soon made up my mind.

I don’t want to get involved in troublesome things, but I don’t want to leave someone who is in crisis right in front of me.

And I have already thought that I would do small good deeds instead of not getting involved in the big story of history.

Since it is a road that you have to pass anyway, you can go and check the situation once, and if someone is really in danger, you can help them then.

If it was an uproar caused by power struggles by back alley gangsters, it would be okay to just pass by.

After I finished organizing my thoughts, I killed the signs and moved carefully along the alley.

And when I reached the street where only one wall was left from the epicenter of the commotion, I bumped into something that suddenly jumped out of the corner.

“Heh… let go…! Let go!! Heo-euk…”

The one who confronted me was a woman wearing a certain robe.

Unexpectedly, I took the form of hugging a woman, and she struggled to get out of her seat, as if she had mistaken me for a rude person.

However, the woman was exhaling a rough breath as if she had already exhausted her stamina, and there was little force in her movement.

I carefully put her down and put my index finger to my mouth to signal her to be quiet.

Then, as if she had now grasped the situation, she stopped struggling and quieted her tumultuous presence in accordance with my request.

And he started begging me in a low voice.

“Heh…Heo-euk…Please help me…I got on the wrong road and got into a fight with the gangsters…Heo-euk…I can’t…I can’t…”

As I initially thought, it seems that it is correct that there was a fight with the majority. But can I trust this woman? Maybe you stole something, or you were on the verge of being caught for a major crime.

Hearing the woman’s plea, I was lost in thought for a while, when I heard several men’s raucous voices from the other side of the alley.

“omg… Heo-eok… This b*tch counts really dirty.”

“It’s natural that you’re a wizard. Had I known, I wouldn’t have touched it. Oh brother! I did! Something’s wrong, so let’s just leave it alone!”

“Shut up your mouth! No matter how much you are a magician, how can a girl be like that! Anyway, these assholes… ”

“it’s okay. You got it though If you’re new to this alley, you can’t get out of it at all. Seriously, it’s been a while since I’ve had such a hard time tasting this… “

“Looking at what you’re wearing, you don’t look like a lady from a noble family, you look like a commoner. Don’t think about getting a ransom, just use it moderately. Max. The limbs must be left behind. know? last time you… ”

Listening to the vulgar conversations of the men talking loudly, it seems that the worries I just had were completely useless.

I made up my mind to help her, then turned around and spoke to her.

Now, there was only a very short time left before we ran into the gang.

“I’m sorry in the middle of this, but how much mana do you have left?”

“Uhhhhh”

I closed my eyes tightly.

Judging from the voices I hear, it seems that there are about five or six opponents. Can I defeat them all alone and get out of this crisis without help?

I thought about running away, but this back is a maze-like alleyway, and like the bully said earlier, if you step in the wrong way, you may end up going deeper.

Realizing that I had no choice but to deal with them in the end, I approached the blind spot of the approaching thugs and hid, carefully removing the sword from the scabbard hanging from my waist and holding it in my hand.

Using a sword in the environment of a narrow alley is not a very good choice, but using magic also requires preparation before casting, so it is not an appropriate method in the current situation when they are approaching.

And in the meantime, they might find out about my existence and lose the advantage of a surprise attack.

Now, their presence was right in front of me, and I drew my sword, ran out, and swung it straight at the closest one.

This is poor Irene who is always stressed out.
