Vol. 5 - Chapter 263 - Terrifying smooth talking ability of Dean



"It's been a long time. Would calling you Zephyr-kun be fine?"

"It's indeed been a while, Dean. Yes, of course."

"Hmm, and the young lady... Miss Ekaterina was it; you have come from so far to the Labyrinth Academy. Welcome." (T/N - author didn't use kun/San/Shi/Sama but jou which refers to lady/miss)

"Thank you very much, Dean-sensei."

A gorgeous room appeared before our eyes when we entered the dean's office.

In the center of his office, a table and sofa were placed, and all the walls were decorated with the flag and the academy's emblem.

From where I could see, at both ends, shelves filled the walls with several trophies and emblems.

They all must be the academy's students who left behind remarkable achievements in this academy. There were many students who dedicated their guild's emblem, etc., to the academy at graduation like this.

A resplendent desk, which I could only think of being used by someone like the company president, was placed on the other side of the table, and Dean was sitting there.

By the way, the «Dungeon Duke's Castle» may be the castle of the feudal lord, but the Feudal lord-sama is traditionally referred to as Dean.

That being said, only during a certain event and when you're led to a room on the 3rd floor and not here, in the 2nd room, ought you to call him Feudal lord-sama. At that time, Dean's eyes wouldn't have a kind expression in them like he was having now, but a dignified gaze befitting of his social rank.

Now, let's return to the main topic.

"Take a seat first."

"Yes, excuse me."

"Excuse me."

Dean sat on the seat opposite the table as we sat on the sofa at his urging.

The cool secretary-san who had guided us earlier appeared, carrying a tray with tea and snacks, and placed it on the table. When did she get the chance to prepare it?

When she was finished and we received tea, Dean began to speak.

"I often heard about Zephyr-kun from Phyllis, and you're indeed a fine student. I also heard your guild's activity is awfully lively, and you have already cleared the Intermediate-lower dungeon."

"Haha, because dungeons are fun. They just hooked me in no time."

Phyllis-sensei and Dean are related by a grandfather-grandchild relationship. I was dumbfounded the first time I heard it.

Well, since she's our homeroom teacher, she naturally must have talked to him. Though it's a bit embarrassing to hear that,

"Miss Ekaterina, too, I heard about your job transfer to «Master-Planner Princess». It's a job yearned for by the Duke family. It is indeed a flattering matter, congratulations."

"I-I didn't do much. Everything wa一一 Umm, I mean, thank you very much."

Rina almost blurted out the secret when Dena congratulated her for her job transfer to «Master-Planner Princess» but somehow managed to gulp them down. That was so close.

Dean, on the other hand, was a well-informed individual. It's another matter if he's just keeping tabs on my situation, but the terrifying part is that he even knows about new member Rina.

Ians that's when Rina's visit was sudden and she just tagged along with me. Such a reception from him would have been impossible if he hadn't investigated it beforehand.

"I see, I have one request for Miss Ekaterina."

"T-To me?"

"Yes. Actually, my direct descendant's granddaughter will be enrolling in this academy next year. Can I ask you to guide her? That granddaughter of mine also adored the «Master-Planner Princess» job, you see."

Hmm? A ‘Duke’ category entering the academy, huh? That's some useful information I've obtained.

Ah, no-no-no, this isn't what I should focus on. I had subconsciously rejoiced at the unexpected intelligence, but that isn't the point at this moment.

It's about the yrap Dean had laid, he wanted Rina to help his granddaughter achieve the «Master-Planner Princess» job.

I couldn't underestimate Dean after he spoke so naturally and without affecting the flow of the conversation requested Rina to help. I almost nodded to it. That was so close. I was about to be caught up in his trap.

Oh, Rina, you must not nod.

I gave Rina a sidelong glance.

"Please no, she's your granddaughter after all, so she must be quite amazing. I think I wouldn't even need to guide her. Research on high-ranking jobs is progressing favorably, and I'm confident your granddaughter will be able to achieve her dream job through her own efforts."

"Ho-Ho. So you say. Hmm, then let's do it; can you be of help to her when she encounters trouble?"

"Yes. If it's just a consultation, I can do it. I, too, have suffered much."

Nice one, Rina.

I didn't expect her to lower Dean's guidance request to Consultation.

With this, he shouldn't be offended in case his granddaughter fails to acquire the job. It was a splendid dodge. In the end, she's still a young lady from a prominent family.

However, Dean's mastery of talk was terrifying.

He must have asked this question based on the fact that ‹Eden› was full of high-ranking jobs, and he must have known that I was the one who leaked the information about high-ranking jobs to a research institute.

I am guessing his goal was to ascertain if I was really aware of the job's manifestation condition.

The sly man didn't ask me, but Rina, looking for an opening.

He's terrifying. Had he asked me, I may have even accidentally slipped it out.

I was glad he asked Rina.

He might try to extract more information while chatting leisurely.

I braced myself for any unexpected shots.

"Well then, let's move on to the main topic. You are here about the the quest you have received, right?"

It was finally the time for main topic.
