《Journey to Another World.... because of my Neighbour》Chapter 14: Men/Women of Letters
Advertisement
After sleeping and eating then again sleeping. I was refreshed. So I went to the Adventurer's Guild to notify my progress.
You see there were rewards for reaching a Level as well as killing monsters. And I wanted to sell the Soul Horseshoes that lesser Dulhan's dropped as well as the Dark Sword that Dulhan dropped.
As it was morning, the guild was quite busy. But when I went inside I found people cheering for someone. So I asked another Adventurer about it.
"Oh, you haven't heard? The party Eleric's Harem has reached enough merits to become a B-ranked Adventurer. They'll be the 3rd party in our Kingdom to reach this Rank. Thought for some reason they're saying it'll not be official right now and the party has to go to Tut to get it official. But still isn't it great. Lord Eleric is just so amazing. Just look at his Harem... Aham I mean party."
They were all pretty girls. It was quite a sight but since they were taken I didn't think of them much. Though I asked, "Why Lord?"
He looked at me once and said"Oh, of course. You aren't from the country. You see Lord Eleric is the son of Duke Mathew Warren. He'll be the Duke after his father. Warren Dukedom is the largest one in our Kingdom. Oh look, the Guild Master is coming. Let's see what she'll say now"
I also watched as Flora's carriage came to halt at Adventurer's Guild. "What you mean by that?" I asked.
"Oh, about a Year ago Lord Eleric came to Runburg and asked that cold-hearted girl to join his Harem... I mean his party but she refused. And said she'll not be Joining any C-Ranked party for no reason. So he promised her that he'll stay here until he reaches B-Rank to ask her again."
I felt a little anger in my heart but ignored it. However, I couldn't help myself from using Appraisal on Eleric.
{Name: Eleric Warren
Age: 29
Gender: Male
Level: 43
Class: [Great Swordsman]
Job: [Noble (Rank- Duke)] [Adventurer (Rank- C)] [Monster Hunter (Rank- C]
Skills: [Sword Mastery (Level 5)] [Sword Talent (Level 8)] [Hand of Sword] [Basic Sword Skill (Tier III)] [Intermediate Sword Skill (Tier II)] [Master Sword Skill] [Forgive (Tier VI)] [Mapping (Level 6)] [Territory Management (Level 2)] [Digestion (Level 3)]
}
So I was able to Apprise him completely. This was certainly amazing. His build was completely focused on the sword I suppose. And just 43. Flora had a 50+ level.
Well, Let's see how Flora handles him.
"Flora dear, you're finally here. Look I'm already at Rank-B. You said you'll become mine once I do didn't you. You accepted the challenge. Now then will the famous genius who became the youngest Guild Master in the Makkara Kingdom go back on her words?" Said Eleric as he saw Flora coming.

"Are you a noble Eleric?" Flora asked.
Eleric spat "Of course, I am. What kind of question is it?"
"As a noble, you should have a copy of any agreement that had happened, do you have it for this agreement you're talking about."
"It's an oral agreement"
"Then please present a witness that is not under your Influence and has Royal Badge to become a witness of all Noble Orel Agreement."
"You b*tch, you just want to go back on your words don't you."
His face turned red from anger.
"By the authorities of Guild master. I upon witnesses you insult a Guild master demote your Guild Rank from C to D."
"You can't do that," he said however after saying that he left with his party. The whole Guild became silent.
However, as soon as Flora entered her office. Everyone started talking. About what'll happen now. Some started shunning Flora while others started laughing at Eleric. However soon Flora's door opened. Silencing everyone again. She looked at me and said "Ishant I hear you're getting a Rank up again. Come to my office."
Flora didn't seem to be concerned about the incident that happened. In the room were Flora and the receptionist who I was talking to after the incident and she told me I had enough merit points to rank up.
Flora handed me a form to update any details. After the receptionist left Flora said
"What kind of monster goes to Level 27 from Level 19 in 4 days? What did you do? Get trapped in the Dungeon or something?"
I nodded
"You Idiot, didn't I tell you to take the dungeon slow. You should at least form a party." She looked quite worried. So I apologized and then asked.
"My Backfire isn't working?"
"Oh that one, we've too much Level difference. Where did you get it anyway? Wait first. " She got an object from her drawer and started Chanting a spell. Probably to activate the object. And I got a notification.
{The object (Hidden Space) is trying to transfer you to another Space. Mage (Space & Ice) Class has influenced the object.
Would you like to accept the transfer of the object (Hidden Space)?}
Did she want to talk about something secret? I could probably get out of this space if I tried anyway. So I accepted the transfer.
"Good now, we can talk freely," Flora said however I received another notification.
{You've entered a lesser domain of Space. All authorities over the space are being scanned. Due to the Influence of the Title [Blessed by Vinatee] all authority over this space has been transferred to you}

"You! What did you do now?" Flora looked at me astonishingly.
"Well as a Space Mage all authority of it was transferred to me," I said cutely.
"Bullshit! You think I haven't met other Space Mages?"
Well, that didn't work.
"Anyway, it doesn't matter if it's your space or mine. We're outside the common Space so no one can spy on us here. Now then" she started asking.
"Who are you?"
"Ishant" I was definitely not getting away with this one.
"You! Okay let me first tell you something. I'm a Women of Letters. My network far surpasses my father's and I have found out that you didn't even exist some time ago. It's as if you just suddenly appeared in Laugh town. That can be explained by you being a Space mage or maybe some other Space Mage transferred you. However even that's extremely hard. Every country has precautions against Space magic. No one can transfer suddenly inside a country. But let's say someone in our Kingdom used summoning space and transferred you by a Sub-space tunnel. Which is an ancient technique that has been lost for centuries. Even if that happened. You're still too extraordinary."
She took a deep breath and started again.
"I had already used an extremely powerful Appraisal Magic Item on you. Powerful enough to be compared to lost Skill God's Eye level 1. It turns out you've 4 Titles. All hidden even from God's Eye and a Hidden Class that disabled the Appraisal Device for 1 year when I tried to look into it. What kind of existence are you? "
I was quite surprised after hearing that. I didn't know when she did it but I suppose Demon King wasn't a class that anyone can look into. However, I thought the Titles wouldn't be shown at least the ones I got from the gods. Well at least they didn't show but she did find out I had 4. While I was a little panicked thus my answer was.
"Oh, aren't I mysterious and charming?"
Thus she hit me on the head with a karate chop.
"Okay, I don't care about your mysteries. But I have a proposal for you. Become a Man of Letters."
"Yes, what exactly is that?"
"It's a hidden Job, well hidden to people who are ordinary at least. The job of Men/Women of Letters is to preserve. We work behind the scenes and do everything to preserve. We stop species from going extinct and magic to be forgotten. We're the keepers of Knowledge."
Sounds mysterious. Wait I should use Appraisal on her again to see what I see now.
{Name: Flora de Vangulis
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Level: 57
Class : [Master Magician (Lightning & Moon)] [Ancient Warrior]
Job : [Noble(Rank - Marquis)(Affiliation: Makkara Kingdom)] [Women Of Letters (Rank C)] [Adventurer (Rank- B) (Position: Guild Master)]
Skills : [Appraisal(Level 8)] [Sword Talent (Level 4)] [Archery (Level 7)] [Hand to Hand Combat (Level 6)] [Increased Status Effects Resistance (intermediate)] [Insight (Tier III)] [8 Element Basic Magic] [Forgive (Tier V)] [Null Barrier] [Meditation (Level 10)] [Enhanced Senses] [Intuition] [Block Appraisal (Level 8)] [Territory Management (Level 6)] [Observation (Tier III )] [Awaken Chakra (Level 3)] [6 Elements Advanced Magic (Tier II)]... [Lunar Heal]}
She has too many Skills, I skimmed through a few.
"You're done Appraising me?" She asked with a smile. The smile did 80,000 damage and died. Wait It wasn't physical Damage so I'm still alive.
"Okay, I'll join your secret society. But aren't you trusting me too much? I mean I could be a spy from your rivel organization. "
"There's no rivel of Men/Women of Letters. Only people who don't oppose it and dead people."
"Is this a warning?" I asked narrowing my eyes.
"Yes," she flatly replied.
"And to answer your questions. I can trust you because of my Observation skill. It allows me to Observe truth and lies as well as the character of a person. If you were to ignore this skill I'll still be able to know that you can bypass it. But you're clearly under it"
{Due to the Influence of Hidden Class, [Observation] was blocked}
"Oh, instantly blocking it. You just keep getting interesting. But I already have enough information to trust your character. Thus I would like to officially invite you to become A Men Of Letters."
After thinking about it. Isn't it amazing to be in a secret organization? Who'd decline it and call themselves a teenager?
"I accept"
"Good, good" she smiled "Well Since there's only a single Job crystal in the World for you to become A Men of Letters. We'll be going to the Xelnos Kingdom after some time. I'll be sending a latter and asking when we should come first."
"Hey, so you're a Master Magician but aren't affiliated with the Magic Guild. Why?"
She looked sad at the question. So I immediately said, "it's okay if you don't want to answer."
She smiled "In that case. I don't want to answer, at least not now."
That did remind me that Tulip should be arriving today at Magic Guild. So After bidding goodbye to Flora I headed towards the Magic Guild.
