Old Eugene turned his head to the side and shook his head, saying:
"I don't know. If you want to go on an adventure, you can check out the Adventurers' Guild. Don't come here."
Looking at old Eugene's hunched back, Ryan remained silent for a moment, then said:
"It seems you know something about the wonder of the burst of life force I just mentioned? I hope you can tell me."
Old Eugene, carrying Rein on his back, sighed inwardly, "So I've been discovered after all?"
well……
Old Eugene slowly sat back in his chair, looked at Ryan, and said:
“I haven’t personally witnessed the spectacle of the burst of life force that you just mentioned, but… I’ve heard others talk about it.”
"But as soon as I heard about it, the family disappeared without a trace."
"Even everyone who was associated with that so-called burst of life force... has disappeared."
"If my relationship with that person hadn't been kept secret, I might not be here either."
Renn narrowed his eyes, a glint of light flashing in them, and even the Goddess of Life focused her attention.
"Can you tell me about it?" Renn asked.
Old Eugene didn't answer, but looked at Ryan and said:
"You're not an adventurer, are you?"
Ryan raised an eyebrow: "Why do you say that?"
Old Eugene said, "I've lived for almost two hundred years and seen too many people. You don't have that 'aura' of an adventurer! And your hands don't have calluses from holding a sword or a magic wand!"
"Although you've concealed it well, I can already tell from your behavior that you're not a commoner!"
Renn smiled, realizing that it was indeed difficult for him to completely conceal his aura in a short time.
Then, Renn tore off the tattered cloak around his neck and transformed into a richly dressed nobleman.
“You have a good eye for people. I am indeed not an ordinary person, but you are wrong about one thing. I am indeed an adventurer, but I just registered.”
As he spoke, Renn revealed his adventurer identity card.
Old Eugene smiled faintly: "There's no difference."
"I know what information you want, and perhaps only I know it, so I'd like to exchange this information for something from you. I wonder if you would agree?"
Ryan nodded: "Okay, what do you want?"
Old Eugene said, "Although I have lived a long time, living a long time has not given me what I wanted."
"I tried to improve my skills to advance in rank, but I didn't have the talent."
“I tried to flatter and fawn over the nobles, but they only treated me like a dog.”
"I even wanted to make money through business to buy a noble status, but unfortunately I don't have a business mind."
"I'm dying soon, and I don't want my descendants to follow in my footsteps. Although some of them may be exceptionally talented, crossing social classes is not so easy."
"So I want to use this information to exchange for the status of an imperial nobleman for my descendants, even if it is the lowest baron."
Ryan stood there silently listening to old Eugene's story. After understanding old Eugene's needs, Ryan smiled and nodded.
"Sure, as long as you can guarantee the accuracy of the information, I can even make you a viscount directly."
Old Eugene was taken aback by Renn's casual words, and as if he had thought of something, he said with an ugly expression.
"If you don't intend to keep your promise, then even if my entire family is wiped out, you won't get the information I'm talking about!"
Ryan was taken aback by old Eugene's words, but then realized that old Eugene did not believe him.
With a smile, Raine took a golden badge from his magical artifact and put it on his chest.
That imperial knighthood badge that Gareth gave to himself.
“Old Eugene, you should recognize this badge, right? Do you still think I was lying to you?”
