I Am the Madman of This Family - Chapter 109
Chapter 109. Consideration of the strong (3)
The eyes of Burgundy, who was disguised as Amantium Mercenary Garen, stood out.
A human with an aura has ‘energy’. This is a different concept from ‘force’, and emits different energy depending on the total amount and density of the bar aura you have.
If this is not controlled, the energy will naturally come out and the presence will be revealed, but no one deliberately exudes this energy.
Not only does it waste a lot of Aura, but it’s because there’s no need to reveal your presence in such an inefficient way.

However, most mercenaries do not control this energy and release it. It’s about showing off your strength. It means ‘I’m this kind of guy, so take care of yourself, and take note of the guy who is going to have a fight’.
Bronze, silver, and gold, usually Bsilgols, do not make a big difference in their presence alone. It is because there is no aura or no meaningful aura.
However, there is an overwhelming difference from platinum. Anyone can see it, ‘Oh, that guy is platinum, he’s a diamond. It’s amantium.’ There’s a difference in presence to the point where you can tell.
Known as the highest rank in the mercenary world, Orihalcon’s aura stands out. As a knight, it was only natural that he was a 5-star Master.
Burgundy is a mercenary, but he hides his energy. to the level of amantium. It was a ulterior motive to analyze Sephira and obtain information while hiding that he was the deputy general manager.
However, it got caught in an instant.
to Keter.
Before stepping into the mansion, all the mercenaries went through identification at the main entrance of Sephira. Even to the members of the Galactic Knights, who are 3-star knights.
However, the Galactic Knights did not notice that Burgundy was an Orihalcon class, and passed it as it was.
It wasn’t because the Galactic Knight was complacent. Burgundy’s aura control was so good that he didn’t even notice that he was hiding it.
But Keter figured it out.
Keter, who was born in the lawless city of Absinthe, is known to the world as an idiot who causes accidents as soon as he arrives.
But what did you show today?
He defeated the mercenaries with the courage to jump into countless mercenaries and the excellent fighting skills that supported them. His body is like steel, and his stamina is strong enough to exceed even after fighting three amantium mercenaries.
We didn’t use each other’s Auras, but even if we didn’t use them, everyone felt them.
Keter is at least a 4 star knight. If you hit it as a mercenary, it’s an amantium class.
Even though he’s this strong, even if he’s from a lawless city, his name isn’t known? Burgundy couldn’t understand.
This fact alone makes Kether a hot potato. But Kether doesn’t try to hide it at all. rather dignified To the extent that he called himself and asked for a private meeting.
When Burgundy was called into the infirmary’s warehouse, Keter pressed her hand against the wall with all her might.
“Could you explain where you are and who you are?”
“You are bold. You don’t know who I am, but didn’t you call me knowing that I’m not from the Amantium class?”
Burgundy grabbed Keter’s wrist against the wall.
Gugguguguguguk.
Keter’s hand on the wall gradually dropped. Very slowly, Burgundy was pushing with force. It showed that Burgundy was as good as Keter with pure strength.
However, Keter’s hand began to move forward again.
Burgundy’s eyes widened.
If it was body reinforcement using an aura, I would understand. However, Keter did not use an aura. I could tell because he was holding my hand.
‘Here’s more muscle strength?’
But Burgundy didn’t show off his full strength either. He didn’t even look at it and immediately showed 100% of his strength.
Keter’s hand stopped in the air and trembled slightly. It meant that the power of the two was equal.
But it didn’t last long. Again Keter’s hand began to move towards the wall.
“… … .”
Burgundy’s eyebrows furrowed.
Burgundy was already at full strength. Now I have to use auras, but Keter still doesn’t use them.
The secret is heavenly power.
The strength of the 3rd level of heavenly power exceeded the strength of Orihalcon Burgundy.
‘It hurts my pride, but it’s unacceptable to be overpowered like this.’
Burgundy raised her aura.
The aura spreads to every corner of the body. Aura supports strength. The movement of Keter’s outstretched hand slows down.
And then, when you’re about to get pushed back…
“… … ?!”
Again, Keter takes the lead.
4th level of heavenly power. Still haven’t written an auror.
Burgundy’s cheeks start to tremble. Even though I use an aura, I’m pushed out of my strength?
‘Even if I fight with an ogre, it’s the strength I won’t lose.’
Increased the output of Aura. It was too much for Burgundy, but seeing Keter use an aura made me feel better.
Keter strained her arm, still smiling.
5th level of heavenly power.
Wow!
The palm went through the wall. Not to mention the warehouse, the building itself was shaken.
Burgundy smiled and opened his mouth. The loser had no right to shut up.
“… This is Burgundy, the deputy head of the Mercenary Regional Headquarters in the Lillian Kingdom.”
“You have to show the difference in strength like this to speak.”
Keter removed her hand from the wall and wiped the dust off Burgundy’s clothes.
“Orichalcon class?”
“okay.”
“The service in this house is good. Send me the Orihalcon class that I didn’t even ask for.”
natural bottom.
No matter how noble the Senate, Orihalcon mercenaries are treated with respect. Not to mention, Keter is 18 years old and has not even had a coming-of-age ceremony.
However, Burgundy did not feel uncomfortable or uncomfortable at all.
“If you feel uncomfortable, leave. But hire the mercenaries outside as usual. They don’t know who I am. They are mercenaries who genuinely accepted your request.”
“What a madman. You said you were leaving because you were caught? Who sent you?”
“Are you going to kill me?”
“There’s nothing I can’t kill. There is also a reason. is not it?”
“… … .”
As Keter said, the justification is certain. It’s cheap even if you die because you hid your identity and went undercover.
“If there is anything you want, tell me. If you want to compensate me with money, I will.”
“You spoke well. The money is to hire you for free, and I will have to lead and control the mercenaries for a month.”
“hmm… … .”
Burgundy was unable to grasp Keter’s intentions. At first glance, it seems like a reasonable proposition… … .
“Are you saying it doesn’t matter if I look around Sephira as much as I want? will be known to the world. Your existence, the crouching Sephira, has stood up.”
“Are you tired of seeing it? And if I was going to hide it, I wouldn’t have called the mercenaries in the first place. look Hearty.”
“Ha, do you mean to say it was intended? why? Why are you trying to show Sephira’s potential?”
“Because I decided to do it.”
“… … !”
If anyone else had said this, they would have snorted. ‘What are you?’
But Burgundy didn’t feel that way at all. I’ve only seen him for the first time today, just over an hour – but Keter was a man who deserved to say that.
“… You underestimated Sephira. pay the price for ignoring As you said, I will lead the mercenaries for one month free of charge. Instead, let’s pretend I didn’t infiltrate this time.”
“Nope.”
“what?”
“The fact that you work for free is the reason I have to save you, and I will charge you separately for infiltration.”
“Don’t you know what a concession is? At my word, I could become enemies with all the mercenaries in Lilian Kingdom. Sephira will never be able to hire mercenaries again.”
“concession? It is the sympathy the strong give to the weak. Why are you giving me a concession or not? You are Sephira, do I look like a dick?”
Kether does not threaten verbally. Action must follow. His hand had already grabbed Burgundy’s neck.
No matter how close he was, Burgundy’s complexion turned pale as he was caught by the neck in the defenseless gap. If Keter gives strength like this, the neck vertebrae will break.
‘My, that I die in vain like this?’
I saw through the gaps in my thoughts.
I never thought that Keter would attack while he was talking, that he would seriously kill him. That complacency put Burgundy’s life in danger.
This is something that would not have been possible with a burgundy in its heyday. However, after becoming deputy general manager, he has been doing office work for five years without running for active duty. Even though he sparred with the Amantium mercenaries from time to time, it was not a real battle.
got loose A sense of being a mercenary.
But no matter how fast the regret was, it was too late. The kaleidoscope flashes. The life that ran nonstop until the Orihalcon class.
‘Why did I become the vice president?’
I got hit by work and forgot about it for a while.
Why did you become the vice president?
‘Ah, right. It was because I wanted to know a higher level.’
It is known that Orihalcon is the highest class of mercenaries, but it is not. There is one step above that.
clear class.
There is a limit to mercenaries who learn aura and master swordsmanship through instinct without a clear framework, and that limit is the Orihalcon class.
They may be able to reach the ranks of 5-star masters, but never reach grandmasters or primes any further. It is a natural limitation.
However, ‘clear class’ refers to mercenaries who break those rules.
There is a way. Even for a mercenary who started from nothing, there is a way to overcome human limitations. and exist clear class.
In all the mercenary association headquarters in the empire, there are at least five clear classes. they are living witnesses
One day, an offer came in. To Burgundy who wanted to achieve a higher level.
“If you work as deputy general manager for 10 years, I will teach you how to advance to the clear class.”
A direct offer from the Mercenary Association headquarters in the Empire.
Burgundy accepted. I dreamed of a higher level. So, I accepted the troublesome position of deputy general manager.
‘It was all to no avail. Marooned Bastard. I’m dying because of you.’
Burgundy’s thoughts were over.
I thought there was only death left…
match.
It wasn’t death that came, but a slight sting felt on his cheek.
Instead of breaking a vertebra in her neck, Keter just tapped her on the cheek.
“Don’t forget the feelings you felt right now. Behave well.”
Sigh.
Keter left the warehouse.
Burgundy, who had suddenly been able to hold her breath, touched her cheek and murmured in that posture.
“… This is a concession.”
Mercy given by the strong to the weak.
It was definitely burgundy.
* * *
Burgundy was seasoned.
After the agreement with Keter was over, he revealed his identity to the mercenaries.
The mercenaries were surprised to hear that the deputy head of the regional headquarters was hiding among them, but after hearing the reason, they were more or less convinced.
It was an unprecedented request. How many high-class mercenaries were hired at once? The phrase that Keter suggested five times the request fee and providing medical treatment and lodging was so alluring.
“In order to prevent any misfortune that might happen, I, the deputy general manager, have decided to take over the control of you guys. Well, even if it wasn’t under my control, I don’t think there would be anyone who would speak out.”
Keter has already shown it to the mercenaries with a fist fight. I am different from other nobles. talk fist If you mess with it, let’s separate the ranks and face each other.
Unlike the aristocrats who only put authority first, the mercenaries had no reason not to cooperate unless they were treated unfairly.
After a while, the mercenaries who finished their treatment gathered again at the 7th Parade. Keter informed the mercenaries of the details of the request and schedule.
“We sparred with the participants of the Southern Sword Tournament. We’re going to have a mock battle in a one-on-one, multi-person battle. Divide the staff as I said.”
Keter had 82 mercenaries in various pairs.
10 squads with three Platinums.
Ten 2 squads, two platinum and one diamond.
Two 3rd squads with Platinum Four.
Two 4 squads, two platinum and one amantyr.
divided into four categories.
The rest of the mercenaries were left in reserve.
The division of the mercenaries was led by Burgundy. While the mercenaries lined up in an orderly manner, Keter brought the two men.
It was anise and tarragon.
Their eyes widened when they saw the mercenaries gathered at the parade ground. He came without hearing anything from Keter.
“Two times, three times. The two of you fight against the mercenaries here in preparation for the multiplayer and team tournaments at the Southern Sword Tournament. Do it like a real fight, but don’t aim for the vital points where you die if you get hit. The same goes for your mercenaries. Do your best to deal with these two. Don’t aim for the same vital spot. As long as it’s not an instant fatal injury, I’ll save everyone.”
Would anyone believe me if I said that only words would save me? Keter waved the elixir she had brought before their eyes.
Of course, even so, mercenaries would not be able to actively swing their swords at nobles. The same goes for anise and tarragon.
But you have to correct it.
There is no mental preparation in the practice of Kether. start right away Number 3, knowing that fact, raised his hand before starting.
“What is it, number three?”
“Teacher. Aren’t you going to participate in number 1?”
Anis was also curious. Right now, there are only himself and Tarragon in the parade ground. No. 1, who always trained together, was nowhere to be seen.
Keter said indifferently.
“I graduated once.”
