Quintus the Birdman, or Quintus, the greatest warrior of the Eagle Clan, broke into the blacksmith's shop, and his attention was immediately drawn to the dagger in the goblin Harvey's hand.

As a regular patron of the goblin's second-hand shop, Quintus was used to being casual here, and he reached out to grab the hilt of his sword.

"Harvey, show me this sword. ”

But the goblin Harvey didn't have the good face he used to be, and he swung his sword and forced Quintus's hand back.

"Be careful, Harvey, you haven't learned to wield a sword, be careful of hurting yourself. ”

"But I've learned how to deal with cunning liars!" Harvey said angrily in his voice, waving his dagger a little awkwardly

"Liar? Are you mistaken? Quintus' expression seemed innocent.

"Shut up, don't think I don't know what Reslyn Magic Steel is! Goblin Harvey shouted.

Quintus's expression froze there, he hadn't expected that the trick of so long ago would be unraveled. He suddenly glanced at Jiwen behind Harvey, and then understood everything. It must have been this newcomer who taught goblins to recognize precious metals.

Quintus took a step back and quickly explained.

"That's just a joke, old man, I'll pay you the difference next time. ”

Although Quintus occasionally takes advantage of a small advantage, he is willing to accept defeat after being exposed, and will not be cheeky and repay.

The goblin narrowed his eyes, trying to tell if Quintus was lying, and after a moment, Old Harvey held out two fingers.

"Double the compensation!"

"Double is double, you write it down for me first. Quintus agreed, and then eagerly took the dagger from the goblin's hand and watched it carefully.

"Only the thunder in the clouds can match this beautiful weapon, Harvey, how can this sword be sold?"

Quintus was full of praise for the sword. Compared to this short sword with a thunderous temperament, his own magic longsword was just a featureless toy.

"Ten thousand stone coins. "The goblin opened up an astronomical amount, and then put on a look that could not be bargained.

Quintus obviously didn't have 10,000 stone coins, but as long as someone was willing to help him cover the cost.

He hesitated for a moment, then suddenly walked up to Jiwen and muttered in a low voice, "Jiwen, do you want to know the secret of your summoning?"

With that, Quintus took out a small cloth bag from his waist and shook it in front of Given.

But before Jiwen could answer, Harvey took over: "Don't try to fool the newcomer, if it's a summoning scroll, it's still a little valuable, and other spell casting materials don't mean much to summoning beasts." ”

Seeing that his intentions were recognized, Quintus glared at Harvey.

"This is what the Archon has tried to get his hands on, and I waited in Curzon's room for a day before I had the opportunity to sneak in and stealthily get this. ”

Harvey was unmoved, waved his hand, and rushed to answer for Jiwen again: "This sentence is only worth the compensation just now, the summoner cares about more boring things, and it has nothing to do with us." ”

"Not necessarily! In the last two days, my summoner has given up all government affairs and has been paying attention to this matter, and she is investigating Gilvin's summoners, Adelia and Elder Curzon. And I found out that Given's summoning could be a conspiracy. ”

"Conspiracy?" cried out to Givens and Harvey in unison.

Seeing that he had succeeded in arousing the interest of the two, Quintus shut up at the right time.

The secret is only worth saying if the price is raised.

Harvey, who sensed his old friend's trick, shut up, but Jivin couldn't hold it back.

He really wanted to know what was going on.

I remember that in that sudden summoning, there did seem to be something unusual.

Why did I suddenly break down the wall in a rage when I was trapped in the enchantment?

How did he suddenly possess strange powers and a strange spirit physique, and suddenly gained magic resistance?

What's going on with all of this?

Givens wanted to know the answer.

"How do you know?" asked Given, at last.

"My summoner thought I was mute and didn't understand their language, so I could sit quietly and listen to a lot of interesting things. Quintus replied triumphantly.

"And what is the conspiracy you are talking about?" asked Given.

Quintus didn't answer, just smiled and began to weigh the weight of the sword with both hands.

Givens frowned, and quickly calculated in his heart.

Quintus doesn't seem to be going to stop if he doesn't take the sword with him today.

But even if you have to pay this sword, then you have to take the opportunity to dig up more information from Quintus.

Givens still remembers that when he was drinking that day, Quintus was a very face-saving guy. So Jiwen sarcastically mocked him: "Quintus, don't be like a twisted businessman, show some heroic spirit. Tell me the matter like a warrior, and the sword will be yours, and the cost will be on my account. ”

Quintus's face flushed all at once, and as a proud warrior, ridiculed as a businessman's twisting was almost the greatest insult, he stopped bargaining, but put his sword back on the workbench and turned to summon Given.

"Come, I'll make it clear to you. ”

It turned out that the archon Midoria was desperate to get the summoning spell in order to find out the truth about the summoning, so he risked having Quintus, who had the ability to stealth, infiltrate Curzon's workshop.

Quintus failed to find the scroll Mitorya was looking for, but found some powder of magic crystals on Curzon's research bench. And he had inadvertently observed Curzon locking himself in his research room, staring at a piece of parchment, a fragment of a headdress, and the crystalline powder, meditating all night before shouting at the ceiling, "That summoning was a conspiracy." ”

"It's not worth a million. Let's take out everything else. Givens took a deep breath and interrupted Quintus's narration.

Quintus flapped his wings and sighed. Then he took out a piece of parchment and a silver headdress from his side again and handed them to Given.

"That's what gave Curzon a headache all night, and that's enough. ”

Jiwen took the thing and looked at the headdress first, although it felt a little familiar, but Jiwen really couldn't see anything famous. He turned his gaze to the parchment, which had three scribbled names, Adella, Tiny, and Quenya.

Adelia had already been crossed out by Elder Curzon, and the other two names had a strange word written next to them, and then a question symbol was drawn.

Givan remembers reading history books where the term usually refers to the demons who ruled the land 10,000 years ago.

Givens fell into deep thought.

That's right, his summoning revealed a strangeness from beginning to end, is there really something hidden that brought him to this world. And what exactly does the demonic name that Elder Curzon wrote mean by it? Could it be that this summoning has something to do with the demon?

Given's heart was full of question marks.

He examined the parchment again, but the rest of the parchment was strange symbols that were unknown, and Given, who had found nothing, had to ask again.

"What happened to Elder Curzon?"

"When he heard that your summoner had followed Professor Persson to the Silent Night Forest, he chased him out in a panic. That's why I had a chance to get these things. If Curzon is present, even if I have extra protection with magic items, the slightest movement will be discovered by Curzon. ”

"And you didn't give these things to your summoner?" Givens reconfirmed before putting away the parchment, headdress, and crystal powder.

Quintus laughed maliciously: "She only told me to find the summoning scroll and spellcasting materials, so I brought back some materials, and she didn't say she would give her anything else." Besides, she was stingy and thought it was only right for the summoned beast to serve her. She didn't pay me, she didn't give me a dagger. ”

Facing the birdman's reminder, Givens said generously.

"Quintus, the sword is yours. ”

Quintus's eyebrows fluttered at once, his face full of excitement, and the beak almost couldn't close. He walked to the workbench and just picked up the sword and swung it twice, when something suddenly occurred to him, so he turned around and warned Jiwen again.

"Given, you'd better remind your summoner next time that Professor Persson is the consul's man, and the consul's daughter and your summoner are competitors, so it's probably not a good thing for him to find your summoner this time. ”

"Well, I will, thanks. ”

Givens nodded.

After Quintus picked up the dagger as he wished, he couldn't wait to get out of the house and fly into the air to dance the sword.

"Boy, you're losing money on this deal. ”

After watching the conversation between the two quietly, the old goblin Harvey reminded.

Old Harvey didn't feel too sorry for this sword, first, this was Given's debut novel, and there should be better works in the future. Second, because someone confessed the account, the cost of this sword was the same for Harvey. Especially this time, it was Given's initiative to take on the debt, which made Harvey feel that the economic relationship between the two was a little stronger, after all, the day when Given's debts were paid off could be pushed back a little bit.

"It doesn't matter, anyway, there will be a chance to need Quintus intelligence in the future. ”

Givens isn't as calculating as goblins, and at the moment, Quintus is a reliable source of information, and maintaining a good relationship with Quintus is not a bad thing for himself or Adella.

"Quintus is lucky to have a generous patron like you. ”

Harvey's tone was sarcastic or envious, but Givan didn't pay any attention to it, his mind was full of the mysterious conspiracy and the need to hurry up and finish the unfinished simple armor with Reslyn Magic Steel.

Because now that Adella has set off, the day is not far from when she will be summoned again.

This will be a crucial battle for himself, as he will prove his mettle and gain a place for Adella to take the selection exam, and he will also have to remind his summoner to avoid the conspiracy that Curzon fears and the hidden arrow that Professor Persson might shoot.

He had to hurry up and be prepared.

So Givens walked back to the storage area and pulled out a slate with a sketch of his own design, then walked back to the workbench and humbly asked old Harvey for advice: "Boss, how to make this shape." ”

The old goblin's eyes widened in surprise when he saw the sketch, and the old goblin, who understood the idea of the sketch, muttered in a low voice.

"Given, you're a genius. ”
