Another World Warrior Who Uses a Shop

The paladin does not back down

The boat Hyun-jun was on boarded without any restrictions. When I ask Doug, he says that if the boat has a mark, it is a certified boat and you can just pass by. Of course, they monitor the personnel and supplies coming and going from the port.

The interior of the city is better than expected. The river bank is also straight with stone, and the buildings are neat. You can see many people taking a walk along the river, and they are all well-dressed and well-groomed.

“Definitely much better than Bimarn.”

“You can’t even compare to Bimarun. But, as always on the outskirts of the city, there are also slums.”

If there are people who live well, there are necessarily people who live badly. Because it is a social and economic structure. People who do menial jobs are also essential to society. Even if they are not treated as human beings.

The ship arrived at the port in no time. After the ship docked, everything was done like crazy. On the ship, members of the upper class loaded up and unloaded, and soldiers checked IDs and items. The upper house member in charge of carrying the luggage shouts and gives instructions.

“You have no mind at all.”

“I get criticized a lot for being late.”

Doug pointed his hand behind him. Boats continue to moor behind the boat they came from. Everyone has finished preparing to disembark, but no one has been able to disembark.

“We get off first.”

Then Doug took Hyeon-jun and swooped down the boat. I walked leisurely as if I had nothing to do with what was happening behind me, showed my ID to the soldier, and left the port leisurely.

“Hey, good, good. Even work sometimes tastes like this should be there.”

I hear Doug’s name being called out in the distance, but Doug just ignores it and walks away. When I cursed and shouted evil from behind, Doug turned around, waved his hand loudly, and started walking again.

“Are you okay?”

“President Sang, customers come first!”

After that, he even hums as if he is very excited. Hyunjoon just silently followed.

“It’s an adventurer’s guild building.”

Surprisingly, the adventurer’s guild building is a little smaller than the non-marne. But once inside, the impression is that it is clean and well-organized.

Doug took Hyeon-jun to the window and quickly confirmed that the request had been completed.

“wait a minute.”

“yes.”

Hyeon-jun checked how far his record remained at the window. Between big cities, adventurer guilds periodically send people to share records. It remained until the 7th day when he killed the goblin. The rest were all gone before the data was sent from Bimarn.

“How long does it take to be promoted to E-class?”

“With this level of record for killing goblins and escorting above Harkman, you can be promoted soon.”

There are a lot of goblin kills, but it is entirely the result of the power of Harkman and above. There is no reason to hire an F-class adventurer to take the safe route that is always followed in that large trade association. It is so blatant that even the guild can immediately recognize that it is to support Hyeon-jun.

“Actually, there is a merchant escort between the villages. Can I get a promotion with that much?”

“Once the records are confirmed, it will probably be possible. Still, if possible, it would be better to complete at least one of the quests within Scanden.”

“All right. thank you.”

At Hyeonjun’s polite greeting, the guild staff also smiled and greeted each other.

“Let’s go now.”

At Hyeonjun’s words, Doug glanced at Hyeonjun with an expression of surprise and left the guild. Most of the adventurers were commoners, and showed signs of not being educated. That’s why even guild staff squeak short words and act like dogs. The best opponents for employees are those who only see their own business and leave quickly. No one was kind or polite to guild staff.

“There is an armor store that deals with Hackman Company. Let’s go there.”

Hyeonjun followed Doug down the street. Definitely better than skinny. The road is also well made with stones, and there is a sewer on the side of the road. But what draws the most attention are the soldiers on patrol. He is wearing a small shield and a one-handed sword, probably thinking of fighting in a narrow space. In addition, the breastplate is plate armor. The level of the soldiers also seems to be high. It’s hard to say that it’s elite, but it’s certainly possible for one person to be a soldier.

“This is Greg’s innocence store. If you need to purchase weapons or armor in the future, please do so here.”

Doug grinned and went inside. When I walked in, I felt like I had entered the store. Armor and weapons are displayed in an orderly manner, and there is even a clerk. It was distinctly different from other places where weapons were roughly hung on one side of the smithy building.

“George!”

“Oh, is it Doug? Are you done with work already?”

The clerk, who was wiping the armor with a cloth, saw Doug’s face and walked away leisurely.

“No, I am doing it now. June, this is George. He is the son of Mr. Greg, the owner of this armor store. George, this is…”

“I am Kang Hyun-joon. Please call me Jun.”

Doug couldn’t pronounce Hyun-jun’s name, so Hyun-joon greeted him as he stuttered.

“…And the President of the Chamber is a guest.”

“Nice to meet you. This is George.”

When he heard that he was Hackman’s guest, George quickly threw off his gloves and shook Hyun-joon’s hand. Even though Hyun-joon’s appearance is shabby, there is no doubt about it.

“Jun, choose the armor you like. Everything will be paid by Hackman Corporation.”

“Ugh, Mr. Chamberlain, you are a guest, so would you dare to take money? Take the one you like.”

said George generously. I said this because I know very well that there is really no way to just take it from Hackman Company, which is a business relationship. If you really don’t pay, you can’t help but feel bad for each other.

“Ignore his words and take your time looking around.”

At Doug’s words, Hyeonjun looked around the store. Originally, I was going to choose a moderately cheap one, but when I saw the armor, I became greedy. Looking at the shining full plate armor displayed in the most conspicuous place makes my eyes roll. Of course you can’t ask for it. Even low-quality full plate armor boasts a price of over 100 silver coins.

Hyeonjun tried to look away from the full plate armor and inspected the breastplate. I received help from the combat skills (basic) and long sword 1 I learned at the shop. Blocking and shedding enemy attacks with armor is also a part of swordsmanship. Hyeon-jun chose a cheap and decent breastplate among those that were not too poor in quality.

“I will do this.”

At that, Doug and George’s faces showed embarrassment.

“Jun, choose something better.”

“Yes, guest. Doug will pay for the most expensive one.”

said Doug, ignoring George’s silent screams after kicking George in the shin.

“Thank you for your consideration, but Hackman Corporation owes a great debt to Jun. If you end it with such a small thing, Hackman Corporation will find it difficult.”

‘Close your eyes and choose full plate armor?’

Desire swelled inside Hyeon-jun, as if fuel had been poured into the fire. But it soon calmed down. Doug will really pay for full plate armor. But that might damage his relationship with Hackman. And the management of the armor is also a problem. Furthermore, an F-class adventurer wearing full plate armor would stand out too much, and would have to act with the back of his head anytime, anywhere.

Hyeonjun sighed, put down the breastplate he had chosen, and chose a fairly good quality breastplate. Then I turned to Doug, and Doug was still shaking his head as if to choose more.

‘I don’t know.’

In the end, Hyun-joon was able to receive Doug’s uneasy OK sign only after choosing a gauntlet, pauldron, and knee armor in addition to the breastplate. With George’s help, I put on all the armor, and the confidence naturally put strength on my shoulders.

‘Now I’ll be embarrassed to say I’m an F-class adventurer.’

Hyunjoon laughed bitterly and muttered to himself. Armed like a regular soldier, he even uses a longsword. It will be hard to find even among C-class adventurers. Hyeon-Jun has passed that much, but Hyeon-Jun’s appearance now seems to be a free article. Thanks to the power of modern technology and body strengthening, he is tall and has a straight posture, but he is wearing heavy armor, so it is difficult to treat him carelessly.

“It will be 21 silver coins and 60 copper coins. customer.”

“It’s old, take it.”

“thank you.”

Meanwhile, Doug finished his calculations. George greeted Doug politely and took the money.

“I wonder if I have been given too much.”

“No, from my point of view, that is not enough.”

Hyeonjun and Doug looked at each other and smiled. There’s no way things will go well when the big trading company and the F-class adventurer, Nabura, share their opinions. Under normal circumstances, Hackman & Co. would decide on a gift at a reasonable price and give it to you. It was because there was no way an F-class adventurer could dare to express his opinion. However, out of respect for Hyeon-jun, Hakman gave him a choice, and it became a difficult situation for both of them.

In fact, Doug heard from Hackman that Hyeon-joon was most likely from an aristocratic background. Hackman first saw Hyun-jun as a person worth investing in, and that’s where the story of the horse came out. Hyeon-Jun thought of it as a burden, but what Hakman thought about was every battle. In other words, he thought of spending 100 silver coins even if he couldn’t do it.

A talented person can succeed anywhere. It is said that he showed a sharp talent to the extent of investing in teaching swordsmanship and etiquette to a fallen family or an illegitimate child. there can be no ability Hakman thought that the reason Hyeon-jun went to Scanden was to have contact with the nobility. Scanden, the royal domain, is full of nobles of all kinds, and there is a nobleman with excellent abilities and even armaments who walks alone, but there must be nobles who are mouth-watering and aiming. If the lineage is certain, it may be accepted as a member of the branch family. Are all humans the same? That is true in modern society. The noble blue bloods are different from the lesser ones. It is not simply that as an aristocrat, he cannot mix with commoners. In addition to excellent genes, some families have unique traits that have been developed and preserved for a long time. That in itself is a firm force that strengthens family solidarity and shows legitimacy.

So, even if Hyeon-jun had chosen a high-quality full plate armor, Doug would have been willing to pay for it. The amount of money that a successful company earns is beyond imagination. A hundred silver coins, two hundred pieces, etc. It’s not small money, but it’s never big money either. Therefore, Doug, who knew Hackman’s intentions, couldn’t help but be embarrassed. This is because Hyeon-jun is hiding himself with the sails folded even though a fair wind is blowing behind him.

‘It seems to be true that he is from a noble family, but he is strangely humble. Is it a family that has fallen too old?’

Doug’s head twisted tight behind a smile. Even an illegitimate child can act as a member of the family if he has the ability. Then you will never miss this opportunity. It may have been so long ago that he had never learned a sense of politics.

‘It’s like being polite to trivial things that aren’t noble.’

Not only to the guild staff, but also to himself, George, and the sailors he saw on the ship. It may have fallen so long ago that the line between it and the common people has blurred. If so, this choice makes sense. It may not be worth as much as Hackman thinks. But on the other hand, it also means that the nobles have kept the family history and legitimacy for a long time enough to become commoners. If it’s a decent noble family, there’s no way. It means that he maintained his family even when he fell into a pit. It is impossible without maintaining legitimacy while squeezing bloody tears from each and every insignificant member of the family. It may be a great family that has made a bold stroke in the past history.

Of course, Hyeon-jun grew up in modern times, and his father was the only bloodline because his relatives had thrown him out of debt.

‘A family from another country? I’ve never heard of a family called Kang.’

“I’m leaving. We will guide you to your accommodation.”

“Are you going to take me to the lodging?”

“If you feel burdened, I will only guide you. It’s a place I know, and it’s a pretty good place.”

“Then it is good.”

Doug thought as he took Hyeon-jun with him.

‘I don’t know. The president of the business will take care of it.’

Doug’s job is to guide Hyeon-jun and report back to Hakman. You have to report everything without missing a single detail.

Hackman Corporation is exerting influence all over Scanden. Of course, there is a check on the huge trading house in Scanden, but its influence cannot be ignored. If you use your strength in a merchant, you can create a network with most merchants. Hyeonjun’s every move will be recorded and all will go up to Hakman.

If it is worth it, you will continue to make contact and get into debt, and if it is not worth it, you will never meet again after this. It all depends on Hyeon-jun’s ability and Hakman’s choice. Doug can’t be very involved in this. It could be entangled with the nobility. It must be approached cautiously and cautiously.

‘I’m going to go get a drink!’

Doug decided not to complicate things any further. Because there is nothing you can do anyway. Sometimes pulling out and ignoring is the wise decision.
