Chapter 74 Hide and seek (4)

It wasn’t a lie to say you followed the trail.

Mana’s movement was a trace.

Of course, Henry had no intention of telling the Count Levi’s guards the truth.

“Traces are all the changes you can make as you move around. It may sound complicated, but it’s actually simple.”

Sneak.

Henry swept his fingers on the shelf beside him.

The index finger was raised to illuminate the black dust.

“There’s a lot of dust. My hands turned black. Then what would have happened on this shelf?”

“Of course he is.….”

“The dust must have been wiped. There’s a trace left. Of course, I’m not saying that you left such a blatant clue.”

That’s right away.

Henry slowly began to walk from side to side.

Look down a little.

Henry began to explain, as if to recall the distant past.

“We looked at the most recent photographs, among a lot of footprints. I tried to find your footprints among the dogs. The executives here use a slightly different size of shoes, right?”

Sneakly.

Henry looked at the executives with only one eyebrow raised.

They were looking down on their shoes unknowingly.

It was actually a matter of course.

Even though it’s a country count, the difference between an executive and a common soldier comes from the doubles.

“This training ground doesn’t leave a good footprint.”

“It’s definitely blurry. It’s blurry, but I have eyes to see the traces. And it’s not just that.”

In Mutai’s rebuttal, Henry was calmly spoken.

“Should I call it a curse or a blessing? I can see things that others can’t see. I’m facing a smaller world.”

“What do you mean……..”

“Like this.”

Whoosh. Henry shook his hand in the air.

“When I move, what are you looking at?”

“Your arms moved.”

“Yes, you’ll see his arm. But I’m different.”

“……?”

“There’s still airflow that I’ve created. It’s a trail of rapid blurring, but it’s clear that you can see it. That’s what I’m talking about right now.”

The faces of the executives have become complicated.

I think he’s crazy, but he couldn’t just attack because he already showed me something.

“The words that flow out of my mouth create a flow of air and make my vision falter. I’m fine because I’m used to it, but I’m sure anyone who’s faced this for the first time will feel dizzy.”

“I don’t know exactly what you’re talking about.”

“I can see things that you can’t see. I don’t know if it has anything to do with direct force, but I promise. There’s nothing more useful than chasing bandits hiding everywhere.”

“I mean.”

Mutai blinked his eyes several times.

“You can see the airflow? If I move like this…….”

“It’s like the current. Can’t anyone see the movement of the water when you throw your arms out in the water? Even if you can’t see it, you can feel it.”

“…Yes.”

“It’s similar to that. Of course, it’s possible for you to “feel” the movement of the air to some extent, but it means I can feel much clearer than that. Do you understand?”

“It’s hard to believe, but I understand.”

“That’s enough. There’s a lot of time left to prove it. How do you want me to do it this time?”

“No, not proof.….”

Mutai sighed, “Huh.”

Looking around, the executives’ expressions were not much different from Mutai himself.

“Isn’t that what you’re saying after all? To follow the instructions for five days.”

“That’s right, but I sincerely want you to help me. For him, we need to give him confidence no matter how long it takes.”

“…Would you give me a moment?”

“As much as you want. I’ll wait outside.”

Be proud, but not arrogant.

Henry Camilton left the conference room.

After that.

“Paha!”

Starting with the moment someone breathed out, the tension of the executives was relieved altogether.

“Oh, my God, Captain. What the hell is he?”

“Be careful what you say, friend.”

“Oh, I was a nobleman. Didn’t you say you were an Academy student?”

“Not yet a knight.”

“But what…Did you see that earlier? When we hid in the same place, climbing the ladder again…….”

The conversation that I had endured burst out.

Executives constantly put out their experiences a while ago.

When Henry’s eyes met at the place he hid, he looked surprised as if he had known from the beginning.

However, most of them said that they were relaxed.

I mean, everyone was ‘trusting’ Henry’s words.

“You’ve seen him around, haven’t you? Did you do something different?”

Then someone asked Mutai a question.

In unison, the silent executives looked at Mutai, and their captain spoke calmly.

“Not at all.”

“Oh, my God. So you’re telling me it’s true? It’s the flow of air. What do you say?”

“I don’t know. It’s not yet an article, but isn’t the world different from ours anyway? Something I can’t read with my own eyes…….”

“If you haven’t seen it, you haven’t. Where is Youngjoo from? There’s no reason why you gave up your position as a captain.”

“I’m embarrassed.”

“It’s true. What do you say?”

Captain Reilly helped.

Their lord was definitely worthy of being called knights, and it was Mutai who put him in the position of captain.

“……so what do you guys think?”

“There’s no reason to lie, is there? The way he was confident earlier…….”

“Honestly, that part is the same mind.”

“Then that guy…… no, can’t you just do what he wants?”

One of the executives quickly fixed the horse.

There was a warning from Mutai, who said watch your mouth, and it was also due to Henry’s appearance a while ago.

“Follow me?”

“It’s only five days.”

“Do the rest of you feel the same way?”

Mutai swept around.

Ten executives, including unit commander Reilly, all expressed affirmation.

Henry’s demands were not excessive.

Because of the lord’s order, I had to follow it anyway, and even the time I asked you to follow it was only five days.

“Isn’t there nothing we can lose by bluntly speaking?”

“You didn’t take the job of security to benefit, did you?”

“We’re not a security guard, we’re a landowner. It’s obvious that if he doesn’t intervene, he won’t solve the problem, and in fact…….”

“Failure doesn’t make any difference. All right, that’s true. It’s good if you succeed, or you’re back to square one.”

The executives were firm in their intentional.

Three or four of them were already interested in Henry.

Mutai came to a conclusion.

“I will report to the lord.”

In the end, the final decision was up to the lord.

In fact, he was already instructed to follow, but it came out of a sense of duty to inform him of the situation that was going on.

But

When Mutai came out of the conference room.

“…Lord?”

“Oh, Captain Mutai, I’ve been waiting for you. The meeting ended sooner than I thought?”

There was Count Levi, sitting with a full face.

***

“He’s a very energetic person. It’s hard to see among aristocrats. I take care of the good rather than the false pretense.…it’s an honor and a sham for this count, and it’s important that he gets the benefit right now.

So

Henry added.

“I’m talking about the benefits of the entire estate, not the individual interests of the count.”

Like Henry just said.

Count Levi was a rare aristocrat.

His ideas focused more on the stability of the land than on his spirit.

“Torture? You don’t have to do it if they’re off. What are you going to do with him? Putting people in prison needs money, and you don’t have to give your soldiers useless work, do you?”

“I understood.”

“But I cut my throat……they stole some grain pockets to make ends meet. I hate it, but it’s not bad enough to take your life. The British may be happy for now, but I don’t intend to get used to it. A situation in which one might lose one’s life for a small crime.”

“I see what you mean.”

Henry nodded calmly.

Unlike when he first faced Henry, Count Levi was now passionately bringing up his management theory.

Because you’ve already shown your ability.

He saw Henry’s performance in his office, and came all the way here to confirm that he must have seen it.

He ignored Henry because he thought he was just a little boy to hit.

But now.

Henry Camilton was the only man who could solve the trouble of Count Levi.

“That’s why I’ve been in trouble.…I thought you could do it. If you don’t have enough power, you can attach the knights, or if you don’t have enough manpower, you can drag all your soldiers out.”

“Thank you very much.”

“Not at all. It’s something I should thank you for. I’ve never heard of anyone watching the air flow in their life. I don’t know if you’re a wizard walking on a different path from us, but in fact, they’re precious bodies.….”

Henry was taken aback.

He used the expression “writer” to the wizards, but fortunately, there was no response from the chat window.

“Wizards are really great people.”

“I think so, too. I would be happy to have respect if I didn’t have a heavy butt.”

“That…….”

“I apologize for the rudeness I first saw, Henry Camilton.”

Suddenly the count bowed his head.

Henry and everyone’s eyes grew bigger at the unprecedented treatment.

“Help me. If we can solve the troubles of our lands, we will spare no support. And your report to the Academy, without a lie, is credited to you…….”

“You don’t have to go that far.”

“You want to hide your abilities? I understand. I’ll just leave that fact out and deliver it.”

“……Yes.”

Count Levi was a quick-witted man.

In fact, it was a fact that it would be revealed someday, and I wondered if it was necessary to hide it.

It was already getting enough attention anyway.

‘But the fact that you didn’t reveal it can be a useful card.’

It can’t be helped if the rumor spreads, but there was no need to take the lead in spreading the rumor.

“So, Henry.”

“Yes.”

“Are you going to help me?”

The count asked with eager eyes. He was too low-key to be a countess.

I think I can help you with this.]

You’re supposed to be on a mission anyway! Let’s help!][LOL] But what if I can’t catch him?]

The chat window was also favorable to Count Levi.

As they say, a situation where the mission has to be carried out anyway.

“I wish I could start today.”

“As expected! I knew you’d say that. Yeah, it’s the right world for a guy like you to be a knight. You’re a different guy from the rotting ones in the early days.”

And then count Levi rose from his seat.



“Excuse me for a moment. Captain Mutai!

“Yes, my lord.”

The count talked to Mutai, the captain of the guard.

It was a voice of the size that Henry could hear.

A conversation to conclude that Mutai saw Henry’s ability and thought he was a man enough to follow.

In fact, it was clear that other executives were told to listen than Henry.

“It’s in earnest. I’m a fast runner.”

Soon the count finished talking and returned to Henry.

He couldn’t hide his laughter and sat opposite Henry.

“Fortunately, Captain Mutai must have admired you. We’ve got enough manpower, and we’re gonna need some knights, right?”

“Thank you, but I’d like to ask you something before that.”

“Ask me. Anything.”

“That…….”

Henry started out awkwardly, and this time, the count showed his unique self-consciousness.

“Oh, let’s go to my office. That’s better. Let’s take it easy over a cup of warm tea.”
