Chapter 46: Ideals and Reality

The hustle and bustle of the streets and the endless crowds of people are always the theme of the city of Gnorra, and everyone is constantly moving forward, as if with every step they can pick up an ideal piece until the whole puzzle is completed.

This is a day in the city of Gnorra, and the cycle repeats itself, and it never changes. It's just that at this moment, in a corner of the city, there is a diametrically opposite scene.

A small dilapidated room smelled damp and unpleasant, a few planks made up a simple bed, a bleak candlelight flickering on the floor, and a few hungry cockroaches lying on the moldy walls, and two languishing figures from the rookie knights who had been so ambitious two weeks earlier, Bell and Garre.

Although they are depressed at this time, they are not alone, because stray cats and dogs are their selfish neighbors, sometimes passing through unlockable doors to say hello and take some leftovers by the way, but never lending them garbage can covers that they can use to keep out the rain on rainy days.

"Why is this the case?" Suddenly, Bell scratched at his fluffy hair and screamed hysterically, scaring off the rats who were trying to sneak away some of the crumbs. It turned out that he had found the cat on the first day, but when he was settling the commission with Uncle Tom, the old man drooled and asked stupidly, "Who are you?" and so he began a two-week journey to collect money.

"What did you say?" Gare tugged at his ear, "I can't hear you clearly, but I remember that you've been babbling about missing ...... Amnesia?"

"Amnesia?" Bell turned his head with two rounds of darker and deeper dark circles under his eyes, "This old guy remembers that his cat has to comb his back every night, remembers that there was always a kind vendor who gave him a piece of corn on the way home, and even remembered the name of the beautiful owner of the barbershop downstairs, and the only thing he forgot was me after I gave him the cat back!"

"Well, I don't hear you clearly, I blame Mrs. Betty," said Gary aloud, "how did I know that she was a lonely widow, and from the first second I saw her, she began to babble, and now my ears are still full of her voice, and I feel that neither of us combined can beat her tongue!"

"If we go on like this, we're going to move to the bridge hole!" said Bell, touching the money bag, which was flattener than a lentil, and secretly made up his mind.

Unfortunately, at this moment, a light rain fell in the sky again, and the fragile candlelight, which symbolized hope, was extinguished again......

"Dear ...... Oh, elegant Monsieur Dewar!" The next day, Bell and Gary came to the Knights' Guild in a low voice.

"Huh?" Dewar was squinting at a letter, and when he saw that the two of them looked sluggish, dressed sloppily, and had a foolish smile on their faces, he put down his affairs, stretched his waist, and said slowly, "What's the difficulty, tell me and listen!"

"Eun!" the two nodded desperately, "under the influence of chivalry, we really figured out one thing"

"Got something?" Dewar turned, as if interested.

"Yes, yes, when you enter the adult world, you have to understand the rules of adulthood!" Bell held back for a long time and spit out a sentence, "If you assign us some tasks, I'll give you a percent!"

"What Yicheng? you want to bribe the liaison?" Dewar immediately refused in a righteous manner.

"Twenty-eight!" Gary gritted his teeth, squeezing two words out between his teeth.

"Although I sympathize with you, as the manager of the association, I am also very embarrassed!" Dewar touched his chin, his tone softened slightly.

The two looked at each other at the same time, and then said ruthlessly: "Sanqi!"

"Hey, look at your appearance, after all, it's a knight registered with me, how did you get into such a field, I really have to think about it......" Dewar looked away thoughtfully.

"Thirty-seven is the limit, uncle!" begged Bell.

"This ...... This is a hooligan association!" Gary had already gritted his teeth.

"Well, for the sake of the healthy growth of the newcomers, I have to risk being expelled from the association. Dewar looked at the two of them for a long time, and finally sighed helplessly, "forced" to accept the offer, but the cunning look honestly betrayed him.

"Damn Dewar, he deceived two newcomers again!" Occasionally, passing knights heard the conversation between the three of them, and scolded in a low voice, but unfortunately Bell and Garay couldn't hear it, but it's no wonder that they, only experienced knights know that as long as they are promoted to Yellow Star Knights, that is, after the novice period of Green Star, the knights are completely free to choose all the tasks within the level, and there is no contact person to arrange at all.

"Come on, to celebrate...... Comfort your frustration, I'm here to treat you tonight for the wine money, and by the way, I have a commission to tell you!" The deal was negotiated, and Dewar was in such a good mood that he almost made a mistake, so he quickly changed his words and pulled the two of them towards the tavern as if they were his own brothers.

"The commission, so soon, doesn't seem to be written on the task board!" Bell wondered.

"It's not to take care of you, it's specially kept!" Dewar whispered, in fact, when the two of them rushed to the guild branch to make concessions, he had only reviewed the task the day before, and he had not had time to write it on the task board.

"By the way, we haven't established the Order yet, how can two knights accept the same commission at the same time?" asked Garay suddenly.

"It's mission cooperation!" Dewar explained, "one of you is commissioned, and the other assists, but there is only one commission, and you decide how to distribute it." There will be many such tasks in the future, and some of the more difficult tasks may require several knights to complete together!"

"I see!" the two of them suddenly realized.

Soon the three of them came to the famous tavern street in the city of Gnorra, and entered a tavern called "Cangyue". After ordering a dozen drinks, Dewar went to the second floor, and in a short time brought with him a little boy with a canvas tied around his head and thick eyebrows and big eyes.

"This is the client?!" Bell and Garay looked at the little boy, who was only about ten years old, "how much commission can the little guy give?"

"Don't look down on people! I'll pay Mr. Dewar five golden tickets!" said the boy, somewhat unconvinced.

"Five...... Five...... Five golden tickets?!

"It's a commissioned deposit...... Dewar added.

"Is it just a deposit?!" not only did the eyes widen, but they also lit up, even brighter than the lights in the tavern.

"Elegant Monsieur Dewar, are they going to do it?" the boy seemed to be a little relieved at the strange behavior of the two.

"Come and touch it, it's harder than anything you've ever seen!" said Garay, rolling up his sleeves and flexing off the muscles in his arms.

"Don't worry, as the liaison of the Knight Guild, how can I recommend unreliable people for you?" Dewar turned to the greedy duo and said solemnly, "This little gentleman said that you must see the knight who executes it in person before deciding whether to make a commission, you don't want to lose face in the guild!"

It's really funny, can a boy of this age still be able to discern the strength of a knight?" Bell was full of doubts, and he asked, "What's your name?"

"You should give your name before you ask anyone!" said the boy.

"Hey, my name is Blackbell, and he's Hapgarre. ”

"Dear Mr. Bell!" the boy saluted formally, and "in the next ......" he stopped abruptly, seeming to hesitate.

"Don't be nervous, Hatu, they can be trusted!" Dewar patted the boy on the shoulder, and then added to the two, "This little gentleman is the prince of the Bik tribe who rules the Beak savannah in the north of the kingdom - Bikhatu!"
