Chapter 236 - Episode Thirty-Three - The Collector (4)
a is shaken up and looked at , but the collector glared at a with more force in his eyes.
a, with tears in her eyes, sohow managed to hold it together and silently backed away from the scene.
“Ha! You’re killing my fun! You ignorant re mortal, sticking your nose into our conversation!”
The collector snorted loudly and shouted.
“He-, hey, you don’t have to say that much, ……!”
The bandage on the collector’s face wrinkles as I stand up for a and showed displeasure.
“Haaaaa …… Abel, you said that she’s your attendant so I’m just trying to be rciful and get this over with, you know?”
The collector glared at a again when he said that.
“You should be grateful for your good fortune, you stoneless, for interrupting and saving your life!”
“Kyah!”
a, pressured by the collector’s pressure, flipped over on the spot.
I’m not sure if it’s a good thing or not, but it’s a good thing.
“H-, hey! Are you okay?”
“I-I’m sorry …… I dropped my bread …… a will eat what I dropped. …… It’s okay, don’t worry about a. I’ll be quiet for a while. …… I’m sorry. ……”
While saying that, a glanced at the collector.
It was as if she was trying to appeal to not to upset the collector.
It’s true that …… the collector is clearly different from the sorcerer and demons we’ve encountered in the past.
I don’t know about the aura, but I can still feel a disturbing and powerful pressure from the collector.
“Hey, what’s the matter, Abel! I’ll give you the tablet, so tell what you’re saying earlier. It was quite interesting. It’s not often that I take the ti to listen to soone else’s story. You should be honored. Now, get back here!”
A swarthy glint appeared in the collector’s eyes.
He seed to be threatening sohow.
Although the collector is now friendly, he does not seem to have accepted or Altamir as his equal in any way.
He was clearly looking down on us.
And he had the presence of mind that it might be natural for him to do so.
“…………”
It’s true that It’s not good to offend the collectors, but …… It doesn’t feel that good to just go along with it while a is being mocked.
“What’s the matter with you, Abel? If you have sothing to say, you can say it …… Hm?”
The collector suddenly shifted his gaze to a.
If you look closely, you’ll see that he’s not looking at a, but rather at the bow I made for her, or so sort of Ortem that spilled out of her luggage bag.
He narrowed his eyes boringly and sniffed.
“I can see it from a distance. I don’t feel any aura at all. Useless …… You’re using a lot of boring stuff, huh. If you use your knowledge well, you could aim for a higher position. You also have the Wand of Destruction, don’t you?”
As the rumors said, it seed certain that the collector had a difficult personality.
However, it was not that I was angry, but it was hard to say anything back when I had just been shown the Great God’s Treasure Book, although.
The gap between him and my opponent is too big.
However, I don’t think I can tolerate being told off like this for the rest of my life.
I hope there’s sothing that can lower a and my spirits a little bit and not ruin the collector’s mood too much.
“That’s right, Abel. There are a few of my treasures that I’ve been saving for a while …… I can give sothing to you instead of throwing it away, if you want? However, if you sell it, you can probably build a mansion or two …… Oh? Ohhhh?”
The collector breaks off mid-sentence and moves closer to Mair.
a is startled and trembling, looking at wanting to be saved.
The collector stops.
In his line of sight, there was the World Tree Ortem.
“T-This is wonderful …… I don’t feel any aura, and the condition of the material is not very good, but …… no, this is interesting. Is this the treasure of the Marren tribe? Fu, fufu …… Ho~, hoho~ ……”
The collector picked up the World Tree Ortem and looked at it as if licking it around.
“Good, this is good! I like it a lot!”
The collector shouted wildly at while carefully holding the World Tree Ortem.
The collector seed to have taken an interest in the World Tree Ortem.
It was the culmination of everything I had learned during my ti in the village, so to speak.
I’m glad it t the collector’s eyes, but I don’t think I can give it to him.
“Um, I don’t think I can give you that one ……”
“Don’t worry, I’ll get you what you deserve. Oh, I said earlier that I would give you sothing suitable from my treasure trove, right? Let’s trade, shall we? I like this one quite a bit. You can count on what I have to offer. You will not be disappointed. In the na of this collector, I will prepare an item that will make you want to give up this wooden puppet! Of course, if you are not convinced after seeing it, you can refuse! But that’s not going to happen!”
“Sothing that will make M- give up the World Tree Ortem ……!?.”
I’m not going to give up on my World Tree Ortem for sure.
I don’t want to, but I’m still curious to see what kind of treasures the collectors will show .
I guess it’s free to ask. And the collector also said that it was okay to refuse.
The collector seed to take my reply as an affirmation, and in a good mood, he wrinkled the bandage covering his face and waved his arms wide.
A jumble of what appeared to be magic tools of so kind appeared around the collector, including a shiny gold watch, a pendulum, a balance, and a few other things.
The collector waved his arm and a large chair with bright red-gold ornants appeared and he sat down on it.
“Well, let’s negotiate, shall we? Fuhahaha! I’ve been using force a lot lately, but this kind of thing isn’t so bad once in a while. The only difference is whether you use violence or financial power to hold down! Well, it wouldn’t be a bad idea for you and to continue to get along.”
He put his left elbow on the chair and leaned his weight on it, turning his face to the ceiling and laughing.
