The World-Class Extra’s Walkthrough - Chapter 182
Episode 182:
Tryouts
“My name is ‘Shark’. “Please feel free to call me.”
“….”
Even without that, I felt comfortable enough with my new teammate.
Because it was a face I knew well.
‘Shark Lovren.’
The quarter orc that suddenly appeared before my eyes was the same one who moved with me, Kals Tyrvaen, at the coming-of-age ceremony in Auracus.
I scouted this guy with the little wizard ‘Varel Hegit’ and performed the ‘Red Wind Ritual’.
‘So, I helped cure the madness of a mixed-blood Orc by giving him the soul stone of an Orc warrior, right?’
As soon as he joined the party, Shark Lovren immediately threw deer meat to him and asked if we had enough inventory.
I was able to recall that memory as clearly as if it had happened yesterday.
“Please take care of me, Lord Seid.”
But when I met him again, he didn’t recognize me at all.
“….”
Right now, I am wearing a cape of foam, completely hiding the appearance of ‘Shan Aledro’.
If you could see through my true self, it meant that I was at least an 8-star wizard or higher.
Anyway, my mind became confused due to the unexpected encounter.
‘What should I do? Should I tell this guy my identity?’
A thought that occurred to me for a moment.
But it was soon concluded that there was no need for that.
‘There’s no reason I should do that. ‘At this point.’
There is one question that needs to be resolved first.
Shark Lovren was living in Aurax until he performed the Ritual of the Red Wind.
But why am I suddenly in the Beast 5 tribe?
‘Did you at least scout from the Beast Tribe?’
That can’t be possible.
No matter how well he hit, Shark was only a 6-star fighter.
At that level, it was easy to find him among the young warriors of the Snow Lake tribe.
There is no special reason to scout.
‘Still, the fact that that clever Genere decided to put me on the playing list means there’s a reason.’
…It becomes more and more mysterious.
Since I couldn’t understand the context, it was difficult for me to trust anyone, even if they were former colleagues.
‘I wonder if they tell me openly first.’
So I took a peek at him, just in case.
“You don’t speak the beast tribe dialect at all? “I guess you’re from somewhere close to the border?”
but.
“I’m sorry, but that’s difficult to tell.”
“….”
Shark firmly struck an iron wall against me.
‘It seems like there’s something going on.’
My attitude is that I can’t talk to someone I don’t trust or even know.
So we had no choice but to remain as if we were meeting for the first time.
…At least that was the case for now.
“okay.”
I nodded silently.
“Then feel free to call me Shark. “I wish you the best in the future.”
“Yes, thank you.”
Even my voice had been completely modulated by the bubble cloak.
Shaq Lovren would have no idea who I was.
But when the decisive moment comes…
‘I might be able to pull Shark to my side and make an unexpected move.’
Of course, the best thing is for such a situation not to arise.
However, like this sudden encounter with Shark, this world did not work as I wanted.
‘So it’s not a bad thing that I also have a hidden trick.’
Meanwhile, the beast tribe’s capital was getting closer and closer.
At that time, the majestic walls of the fortress city were so close that they could not be captured at a glance.
“Everyone get off your horses!”
The spirit of the hippopotamus came from Gener, the leader of the group.
He took the initiative and got off his horse and was urging everyone in the group, including me, to get down.
“What? Come on?”
The Blue Flame Knights, who were masquerading as the top of the empire, immediately rebelled.
“Is it because it’s a humid day or because my knees are sore?”
“Why are you asking me to walk on two legs instead of leaving my four healthy legs alone?”
But the reason was enough.
“Originally, riding horses was prohibited in Makadi.”
“Eh? “I haven’t even entered the city yet…”
“And in order to pass through the gate, you have to get off the horse from 100 steps away and approach slowly.”
“Ugh…”
“If you don’t follow these rules, you won’t be able to pass through the gatekeepers. “Anyone.”
Genere paused for a moment.
He suddenly cast a sharp look at me and the knights.
“It’s strange when I think about it. There is no way merchants who do business with our tribe would not know about this system…?”
“…!”
“Hmm, are you really merchants of the empire?”
As a seasoned elder, he hit the nail on the head.
Currently, the Blue Flame Knights were disguising themselves as a superior group, but in fact, they didn’t know much about the Five Beast Tribes… and they
even didn’t know about Makadi’s hippopotamus spirit.
Even though this is information that any merchant who deals with beast tribes should know.
I clicked my tongue inwardly.
‘You can’t come all the way here and create unnecessary suspicion.’
A moment of crisis that came suddenly.
-Chief Carmodo?
I cast a communication spell on Kermal, who plays the role of the merchant.
-Please step forward and say this to Gener.
I immediately ordered a very simple countermeasure.
“…Hahaha, there seems to be some misunderstanding. “Manager Gener.”
“A misunderstanding…?”
“It’s just that we have some friends who are beginners, so that’s why we said that.”
“Oh, so you’re saying that you know our customs well?”
“of course. Any merchant who frequently traveled with the beast tribe knows very well that not only hippo spirits but also some ‘haegeom spirits’ exist in Makadi.”
“Haegeomryeong…?”
“Yes, when the warchief comes, everyone within 100 steps, regardless of region, must untie their swords and place them on the ground.”
“…!”
“Isn’t that Makadi’s strict sea sword ordinance? “Am I right?”
Gener paused for a moment, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
Because it was true.
When a warchief came to Makadi, everyone within a hundred steps had to stop moving, untie their weapons, and place them on the ground.
‘The warchief of the beast tribe is on the same level as the emperor of the empire, so he deserves it.’
I quickly conveyed it to Kermal.
As a result, Genere bowed his head towards the entire Blue Flame Knights.
“I’m sorry. “I apologize for doubting you even for a moment.”
“Haha, not much to say.”
“You even know the warchief’s sword command. “It looks like you made a fairly large transaction.”
“Is there anything big or small in the business world? I just always try my best to leave a mark. That’s all.”
Director Carmodo did not stop there and even showed his sense of humor by adding a famous quote.
“A merchant does his best to leave a mark. “That’s a wonderful thing to say.”
With a satisfied smile, Genere walks away towards Makardi.
“…Did I do well?”
Then the old knight commander came up to me and laughed.
So I smiled too.
“Well done. We need to stop the knights from joining. “Please don’t make random jokes that I didn’t ask you to.”
“Dog drip? “What is that?”
“…Useless nonsense.”
“Oh, I understand. I will inform you not to talk nonsense. “Everyone seems a little excited, perhaps because we have now officially entered the center of the beast race.”
Well, that could be it.
“But how do you have such knowledge? Makardi’s sea sword spirit? “I’ve been through all kinds of prenatal problems, but I’ve never heard of anything like that before.”
“Hmm, what does it matter? “The destination is just around the corner.”
“yes? Oh…”
I changed the subject very skillfully, and Kermal, who turned his gaze accordingly, let out an exclamation.
“Everyone who visited for the House of Representatives selection contest, please come here! And representatives, prepare a list!”
“Everyone in one line! “Don’t cut in line!”
The shouts made by the gatekeepers guarding the castle gates as they control visitors.
“hey! “You damn snakes!”
“Shut up! “You bastards!”
“Hey Oasis cow heads. “It’s been a very long time?”
“Damn, these ugly kittens from Seosan. How are you?”
Even the heat generated by the rival tribes that we finally met.
The area in front of the castle gate was literally crowded.
Kermal and the knights clicked their tongues.
“This is completely different from the petty imperial people.”
“Because they are beast tribe.”
The House of Representatives selection contest was scheduled to begin tomorrow, but it looked as if a preliminary battle was being fought using the snout as a weapon.
“As far as I know, there are eight gates like this in Makadi in all directions? Is that correct?”
“Yes.”
“Wow, then how crowded it must be in there….”
“It’s very Dottegi Market.”
And I had to find Carly among them.
It was right then.
“A group of Snow Tiger tribe members from Eru Port City! “Everyone come in!”
We entered Makcardi.
* * *
In the deepest part of Makadi is the abode of the warchief.
The middle of the hall was so chaotic that there was no place to stand, filled with living beasts and all kinds of blades, as befits the Beast Tribe.
“…It’s been a while since I saw you, Mom.”
A young warrior was bowing.
The warrior was clearly showing his upper body, which was full of muscles and dense scars that seemed to be slightly out of human form.
“…Eikir.”
This man was ‘Eikir,’ the blue dragon spear considered the best among the young warriors of the mountain goat tribe.
“It’s great for me to see your face after such a long time.”
And a middle-aged female warrior smiling as she received Eikir’s greeting.
…Modrin.
The great chief of the five beast tribes and the ruler of the southern part of the continent.
But now she was here, not as the chieftain of the beast tribe, but as a mother.
Eikir, who had been busy hunting monsters since leaving Makadi for a long time, returned to the capital to participate in the House of Representatives selection contest.
This was because this was the place to welcome the son.
“So, how have you prepared for this tryout? Will that be enough?”
“Of course, mother.”
In response to Modrin’s question, Eikir nodded confidently.
“Haven’t I gained some experience on the Western Front over the past year? “The sweat may not be able to completely replace the blood, but I believe it will dilute it a little.”
“That’s great.”
The warrior’s mother smiled quietly at his humble yet confident words.
As he said, Eikir returned from the Western Front having achieved significant growth.
‘They say that the level of Ekra’s spearmanship is at an 8-star level.’
Considering that Eikir turns 28 this year, it was the fastest growth among young fighters.
At the same time, he could be seen as the warrior most likely to become the leader of the Five Beast Tribes in the future.
So, Modrin could not help but be satisfied as a member of the mountain goat tribe and as a mother.
“You’re doing well, Eikir.”
Because he was someone who loved his son more than anyone else and worried about the future of his tribe, the best situation was being created.
She had no doubt that if her son took the position of warchief one day, a new heyday would unfold for the Five Beast Tribes.
“But you must always stay focused.”
But she did not forget to criticize her son.
“More than anything else, a warrior must hold humility and prudence like a sword in both hands. The weak medicine of pride makes it easy to miss it, so you must stay away from it. Do you understand?”
“Yes, mother. “I will.”
Eikir, an exemplary son and warrior, nodded faithfully.
“Okay, just do that.”
The great female warrior responded with a bright smile.
“Then since you are busy with work, I will leave now, mother.”
After saying hello to his mother, Eikir was about to return to his lodgings.
“Oh, before that, there’s one more thing I’d like to ask.”
But Modrin had one more business left.
This could have been meddling, but…
‘I’m curious, so I’ll have to check.’
As the organizer of this House of Representatives selection contest, she knew all the schedules.
That’s why I felt puzzled by the contents of the participation form my son submitted.
“You didn’t apply before the competition in the metropolitan area, but you applied before the competition in the southern region? “Why did you do that?”
…East, West, South, North and the capital.
The House of Representatives selection competition is conducted by selecting the top 10 teams at the regional level, which is divided into five regions.
Modrin naturally thought that his son would enter the competition in the metropolitan area.
Their mother and son were a central clan based in Makadir among the mountain goat tribes.
“Yes, I plan to participate in the southern region.”
However, unexpectedly, Eikir was running for office in the southern region, not the metropolitan area.
So Modrin was curious.
‘why? Did you feel that it was easier to compete in the southern region than in the metropolitan area?’
No, Eikir isn’t the kind of guy who thinks in such shallow ways, right?
…I’m sure you have something on your mind.
Warchief and mother Mordrin was intrigued by the choice of the tribe’s most promising warrior.
“That’s…”
Eikir opened his mouth quietly.
“I heard that a great fighter is competing in the southern region. “It is said that he is a member of the Snow Lake tribe and has never been revealed before.”
“Oh, the snow tiger has a secret trick?”
“Yes, I want to compete with that guy. So I applied for the southern region.”
Eikir said so.
And he smiled a little coldly.
“If there is a strong opponent somewhere, go find it and face it…”
“Huh?”
“Isn’t that ‘warrior instinct’? Ha ha ha ha ha!”
“…what? “What a no-nonsense guy.”
Modrin just laughed at his son’s words.
Eikir followed the voice of his heart and participated in the competition in the southern region.
‘Is it because he takes after my father? When it comes to fighting, he doesn’t hesitate at all costs.’
Until then, Warchief Mordrin had no choice but to believe so strongly.
