Chapter 75 - Testing enemy territory

-Nolan Pov-

..

..

I woke up one morning, it had been 2 days since Hitogami saw me in my dreams and told me everything that happened

To this day I still can't fully process it.

The Dragon God Orsted...is actually a part of Laplace?!!!

If someone else had told me this, I would never have believed it.

Obviously I told this to my traveling companions, they didn't believe me at first but the next day they changed their minds, I guess Hitogami showed them the truth too...It's a relief..

Still after all this Hitogami hasn't contacted me since that day and the truth is that every day that passes makes me more impatient, knowing that there is an impostor in the house of my idol Rudeus Greyrat....

The plans to separate the team here in Sharia are now no longer a possibility, we are now one team in this, we were chosen by a higher entity....we must not fail it!!

Still, the days in Sharia, removing Rudeus' impostor, have been very calm, to be honest.

We are currently in an inn in the center of Sharia, we haven't made many moves to be honest which only makes me more impatient.

After another day of doing nothing and a "training" session with Hilda I went to bed.

..

I opened my eyes and it was here again....

-Hello, nice to see you again!- Hitogami said

Yes...it's a pleasure...what will happen now?

-Jojojo, don't be impatient my friend, I've been busy you know? I'm helping you gather powerful allies- Hitogami said in a mocking tone

Powerful allies? Who are they?

-Haha, you are really impatient, I'll just tell you that among them is King Steevio- Hitogami said with a laugh

King Steevio?...the king of the Dragon King's Kingdom?!! that Steevio?!

-That's right, but I can still only do that with my limited influence, you and your companions must do the work on land- Hitogami said

I see...what do you need me to do and how?

-Well, to start my friend I want you to help me see what is happening in Rudeus Greyrat's house, Orsted placed a spell that makes it impossible for me to see what is happening in that house, the truth is something of the most annoying-Hitogami said slightly nervously

I see...I can do it...and how do I do it?...

-Hehe, this will be another tip friend Nolan!- Hitogami said enthusiastically

Any other advice? Please tell me sir!!

-Ahem! Nolan is asking for a job at the Orsted Corp, with your skills they will give you a minor mercenary rank, with your poor help we will see what happens in that place and how you can infiltrate- Hitogami explained

Apply for a job there...how can I do it?

-Hehe! It's actually very easy, you just have to apply, they will test your skills and because of how strong you are you will be hired immediately!!- Hitogami said clapping with excitement

I understand....Should I do it tomorrow? Can my classmates come in too?...

-The more help you give, the better, my friend! When we are in a safe place, I will contact you again! - Hitogami said with what seemed to be a toothy smile.

Okay, I guess I'll have to settle for permanent Sharia, right?

-No, this job will only be temporary to weaken the spell that Orsted put on the Greyrat house, when you finish there, you will help me more actively- Hitogami said seriously

I see, understood, thank you very much!!

-You're welcome, and remember that none of you three raised suspicions!~ Hitogami said in echo as he walked away from me and my vision darkened

..

I woke up in my bed next to Hilda, Hitogami had given me some new advice and I don't plan on letting him down!!!.

I told my companions about my actions and they agreed to go with me to Orsted Corp.

We left the inn heading towards Orsted Corp, the building is on the outskirts of the city about a half hour walk away.

We saw the building on the outskirts, it only had two floors but was the same size as an entire block.

As we knew, the hiring rate here is quite low, but Hitogami said that with my skills, they could secure me a position, right?..

We arrived in front of the building, the large wooden door with two dragons on each side stood in our way.

In addition, 2 doormen about 2 meters tall were guarding the door.

When we tried to enter we were immediately stopped.

-Back off boy, I haven't seen you or your group before, what are your intentions here- one of The doormen asked me, blocking my way.

-Hey...good morning sir...we've come to ask for a job...- I said nervously.

I looked at my companions and they said the same thing.

The doormen looked us over from head to toe Then he looked at his partner and nodded silently.

-Okay, you can come in, I'll accompany you in that case- the doorman said

We entered the building and we were greeted by the sight of about 40 men sitting at desks while reviewing papers, they looked like office workers, Hitogami said they could give me a minor mercenary position But in reality any work matters

Although I heard that Orsted Corp is strongly linked with the Rudo Mercenary company for obvious reasons in its founders

The doorman led us to a secluded room where a woman of the beast race was signing papers.

When he saw us he gave us a respectful smile but he also had a doubtful expression.

-Miss Liendra, these young people have come to look for work- the doorman said

-It's okay, Donald, I can handle it from here for now- the lady replied.

The doorman just bowed and left us with Miss Liendra.

-Why do you want to work at Orsted Corp?- Liendra asked us

-We want to support Mr. Rudeus Greyrat and Mr. Orsted in whatever way we can with our work here- I said.

Liendra looked us up and down and then smiled kindly.

-Very well, I will interview you one by one to see if you are fit to work here, please let two go and only one remain- Liendra said

We all looked at each other and I decided that I would be the first to go through.

-Well young man, what is your name and what skills do you have? - Liendra told me with an expectant look about what I would have to say

-Well My name is Nolan, I am 17 years old, I am advanced in the God Sword style, and an intermediate level magician without enchantments in the 4 elements - I said sitting upright in the chair

-Hmm, I see...exceptional combat characteristics, but do you have financial management skills, information organization skills, or combat experience?- Liendra asked me expectant

-Well, as for combat experience, I'm the leader of a C-rank group and I manage all of our finances- I said trying to find a correct answer..-hmmm and how long ago did you sign your team?- Liendra asked

-This year it will be 5 years but as an adventurer I have more- I answered honestly

Liendra thought for a few moments and I could feel the beads of sweat forming on my forehead.

Suddenly she began to search under her desk for some papers, she organized them, returning most of them back to their place.

-You have the skills to work here, on this page are the positions you could apply for- Liendra said

It was just one role but it had some professions

-Minor Mercenary

-branch porter

-mercenary in our affiliation the "Rudo Mercenaries"

-Office worker

Those were the positions I could apply for.

Very specific jobs in the aspect of a mercenary and also an office worker

-Excuse me, Miss Liendra, but...what do you do as an office worker?- I asked curiously.

Liendra was surprised at the mention of this job but easily recovered.

-Well, the work is there because we are short of staff in that department, but it consists of managing the information that other branches around the world send here to the company's headquarters- Liendra explained

-I see...I would like to apply for that job please!- I said bowing

-Oh?!....hah...I see...wait a second-Liendra said getting up from her desk chair

I couldn't help but marvel at the shape of the lady's little ass. She's wearing a fake one that sticks to her skin, and with every movement those buttocks bounce....

I snapped out of my trance when I felt drool coming out of my mouth.

-Please read this contract and sign here- Liendra said passing me a sheet of paper and a writing pen

After reading the contract, sign it and give it back to him.

-Very well Mr. Nolan, which shift would you like to apply for?- Liendra said

-I would like to go to the second shift, miss- I said with a smile

-Very well, the pay will be one gold coin per week, the work day is 8 hours with one day of rest every ten days- Liendra explained

-Okay, thank you very much- I said, getting up from my chair.

Liendra seemed to have written me down in a notebook and smiled kindly at me.

I couldn't miss the opportunity and I took her hand and gave her a kiss looking into her eyes.

-Thank you very much, miss, I didn't think I could do it with such beauty in front of me- I said

Liendra blushed slightly and smiled at me.

Afterwards Hilda and Romira were interviewed and they also chose the office position.

Now it's just a matter of time before Hitogami contacts us again...
