91 Lesson 90
The receptionist was deeply suspicious about Gray, who did not take the mask off until the end, and reporting it to her boss but being told to stop prying about him further increased her distrust of Gray.
By the time Gray was registering, Deena was trying to gather information about players who could be opponents. Deena was first on her way to the Adventurer Guild. The Adventurer Guild here was bigger than Toula, and many adventurers were visiting because of its proximity to the Games.
Many of the adventurers who were coming to the guild were not accepting requests, but came to gather information and chat.
Listening to the story and speaking directly to the female adventurer who seemed to like the story allowed him to listen to the promising among the participants.
As far as the information I could hear in the guild was concerned, in the personal division, the leader of the S-rank adventurer's red blow would be the winning candidate. Even in the group division, it was expected that a 'red blow' that a highly-ranked adventurer could throw a party would be won in due course. Other than that, I was able to get information that there would be a few A-rank adventurers out there.
Once you've heard all about it, you'll gather information while shopping at the outdoor store, the store, etc. that opened the way to the arena after your guild. Merchants from outside the city were able to hear rumors they had heard on their journey to this point, and merchants who originally lived in the city were able to hear information about the Knights' leading stock.
This information was not collected by Aotearoa to win, but was what Deena was doing to enjoy the tournament. He thought knowing the strength of the participants, even approximate, would make the game more enjoyable.
"In this, I wonder if the son of that martial artist and the leader of the red blow are the winning candidates?
Eat the crepe in the other hand, looking at the note at hand. From that appearance, he was not seen as a former princess of the Elf country, blending into the city in an atmosphere such as an age-appropriate girl.
Also, it was no surprise that he was called out for numbing purposes because of his appearance, but he never caught the eye of anyone other than the well-behaved because he uses his prior signs blocking system skills.
And when you come near the arena to find Aotearoa, you will be heard from the well-behaved one.
"Oh, you're in the meantime."
The man and I were Gargis.
Deena tried to go straight to the arena without looking in the direction in which she was called.
"Hey, give me a minute. I don't know. We're not friends. You can say hello!
"Right, hello, goodbye"
Deena bows down and tries to head back to the arena.
"Ha, I apologize for that time, so give me a break"
Deena grinned at Gargis, bowing her head.
"It's a lie, I'm not angry anymore. I mean, I'm not angry."
"Oh, really? You looked really angry, but you're a good actor."
"You were in a difficult place to live if you couldn't do some acting...... well, that would be nice. What more can I do for you than that?
Deena remembered the old days and cast a little shadow on her expression, but immediately switched and asked Gargis a question.
"No, I'm not particularly interested in this kind of thing, but I thought I'd say hello to you once I saw your face."
"Really... yes, Mr. Gargis is going to participate in the tournament, right?
Deena asked Gargis a question that she remembered a good thing.
"Oh, for once. I'm only entering a personal battle"
"So do you know about the other participants or something?
Deena glanced and asked Gargis.
"Well, that's a little. It's important to gather information, so I'm listening to a few blind people."
"Can you tell me if you like?
"I don't mind that much, but maybe he'll join us?
Dina's eating was as good as she thought, so Gargis had Ethereal's participation on his mind.
"No, that's not what I mean. I'm thinking about going to the game, so would I enjoy knowing about the leading players? What?"
Gargis nodded at Deena's natural answer.
"I see. Then go over there and talk to him."
Gargis is set up halfway down the road, pointed to the bench.
"Okay."
Sitting on an empty bench, Deena takes notes out and listens. In contrast, Gargis provided the information he had in mind.
"First of all, there are two people who are said to be winning candidates. One is Carlos, the clan leader of" The Red Strike, "an S-class adventurer, who is a user of the Great Sword but deals with it at the speed of a one-handed sword. Besides, magic flies to places where you're good at flaming magic and you've avoided the Great Sword, but the only thing you're good at is flaming, and other magic is on top of the line."
Deena takes notes not to leak word for word.
"The other is the captain of the First Regiment of the Knights of the Kingdom and his name is Santana. Looks like you decided to join us today. Fighting style with armor as a weapon, but he is a leopard beast man and has a reputation for quick moves. Also, the captain class of the Knights here has a reputation for having lost some of their heads among the Beasts."
While surprised by the latest information that didn't even come up with a name in the Adventurers Guild, Deena didn't stop taking notes.
"You used to have such fresh information"
"Oh, I just saw him line up at the reception."
Gargis was putting his closeness into words as if to talk about someone he knew.
"Do you know him?
"Uh, no. I've seen it before, keep up."
Gargis returned an ambiguous answer to clear Deena's question.
"As it is, well, it goes on more than that. They have a few other A-rank adventurers, bad, but these guys didn't look into the details. Otherwise, they don't have a few captain classes coming out of the Knights, and I heard rumors about an elf wizard or something. They pay a lot of attention because it's rare for an elf to compete. And, well, this is the place. I'm sorry it's not that much, but this is what I looked into."
The numbers were not high, but Deanna was satisfied to know two things: the captain's participation and the elf's participation.
"Thank you. It helps."
Deena stood up and said thank you as she bowed.
"Oh, you don't have to worry about it. It would be helpful if you could do something that annoyed me."
"Pfft, that's fine. Now I forgive you."
Deena answered that with a slightly mischievous smile.
"Well, I'll be looking for Mr. Sota, so I'll be there."
"Oh, see you later."
Gargis waved flirtatiously and Deena made a small run to the arena.
"... I guess I'm glad they shook it before I knew it in depth"
No one could hear Gargis twinkle.
