Chapter 114.

Arcanta sighed when he saw the personal details of the trainees that Glont brought out.

One person was near the top but not at the very top of the list, and would have likely been assigned to a normal local town office or a district office in the capital.

However, the problem was the other one. The person had the top grades but narrowly missed being within the top 5%. Even so, of all the people, this trainee was the one that Arcanta had been eyeing.

The prime minister sighed as he placed the personal information document of Den von Mark on the desk.

"Adventurers Guild Director. Unfortunately, it overlaps with a talent that I want. Is there a particular reason that it has to be this person?"

Glont shrugged. "Well, since Prime Minister-nim is eyeing him, it means he is capable enough that I dont necessarily need a reason, right?" He flashed a lopsided grin.

Arcanta was flustered by the smile. He knew the others habits well as he had known the director for a long time.

Glont's current smile was the smile he showed when he was going to stubbornly push ahead with his agenda.

As far as Arcanta knew, there wasnt a time when things did not go the way Glont intended when he had that smile.

"Is there any reason why Prime Minister-nim has to pick him?"

Arcanta nodded.

"There was a recommendation from Pelgrant von Bologneo, a former treasury civil servant and my direct subordinate. He asked me to put him in the treasury office because he is a talent I want.

In a way, it sounded like a request.

Most of the cabinet members in the conference room had been acquainted with Pelgrant since he was still a member of the treasury office before he was appointed as the director of a district office. The ministers gathered here did not know why the man had gone to the district office as if he was half-retiring.

But they knew that Pelgrant was not the type of person to ask for anything.

The cabinet conference room was full of tension courtesy the battle of nerves between Arcanta and Glont.

-o-

If there was a word that could explain my current situation, it would definitely be a servant.

After being dragged around for shopping by Alice and Yuria, both of my hands were already full of shopping stuff.

Is there any other word to express such a sight other than a servant?

Oh, theres slave!

"I'm sorry. Unfortunately, my pocket space is full."

I shook my head at Yuria's apology. "No, it's okay."

The size of a pocket space was determined by the amount of mana possessed by the person creating that pocket space. Since Yuria could create a pocket space, she was likely a great magician just in front of the wall of the Magic Way. But perhaps because she was still young, compared to the level she was at, her mana capacity was small.

Of course, as a Butterfly, her small amount of mana was still 10 times larger when compared to Alice of similar age.

Alice was said to possess a large amount of mana compared to her classmates at the magic school, but from my point of view, small was small, so I couldnt tell the difference.

In any case, considering the amount of mana that Yuria had, the size of the pocket space was likely as small as 10 pyeong and as large as 13 pyeong.[1] At that size, there was enough space for experimental tools and magic catalysts, so it would not be a problem. But it was a little small to put in additional things.

"I think Im actually holding less things.

Because I was servant No.3, I had less luggage than servant No.1.

I asked servant No.1, Pushover, "Do you want me to hold some more?"

Lisbon shook his head at my consideration. "No, itll be hard with those thin arms. Saying so, he flashed a refreshing smile.

In terms of pure strength, I would be the strongest, but I didn't refuse Pushover being considerate of me.

Lisbons pushoverness had already exceeded 530,000, causing the meter to almost explode. It made the kindness inside me feel sorry for him.

"Wow! Den! Look at that!" Alphonso, the servant No.2, waved Yurias loot and pointed to a private stand.

"Kyaak! Alphonso! Don't shake it!"

Startled, Yuria put down her belongings and hit Alphonso on the back. Among the things Yuria bought, there were magical catalysts that would break when struck like glass.

Mmm, if I were her, I would hit him too. To dare to treat a precious magic catalyst recklessly, it was not allowed.

"Now that I think about it, didn't Alphonso say that he created a pocket space too? Lisbon asked.

Alphonso nodded. "Yeah!"

What?! Alphonso's answer surprised me.

I was in no place to talk since I was only six years old when I made my first pocket space, but creating a pocket space was a very difficult magic. At the least, Alphonso's magic skills would not allow him to create a pocket space. Of course, it wasn't completely impossible since I could also teach someone who didnt know anything about magic how to create a pocket space. However, even if it was taught, the size of the pocket space was determined by the caster's mana. Therefore, if one didnt have the ability to make a pocket space, then it would be completely useless. To be honest, considering Alphonso's mana, even if he made a pocket space, it would be less than a foot long.

Alice looked at Alphonso full of astonishment as if she had long known of his skills. "Then cant we put the luggage in the pocket space?

Alphonso shook his head with a sullen face.
