Will he finally use his authority to pressure Simon or would he use force to cower the old man? However, what the boy did next was totally beyond his expectation and surprised him greatly.

After fidgeting and looking conflicted for a while, he took out something from his space ring and passed it to Simon. When Simon observed the item in his hands which was a short sword, he couldn't help but frown.

That was because the [Analysis] was showing him that the short sword was a [B] tier weapon and was imbued with only one skill, [Indestructibility]. No matter how Simon saw it, the cost of the food was nowhere near what a [B] tier weapon would cost.

He carefully observed the boy who had a determined expression at this moment on his face. to be willing to take out something like, what was he thinking?

"This a very special weapon passed on by my master to me. Other than the weapon I use myself, this is the only thing of value on me currently. I'm giving it to you in exchange for the money I owe you. Hold on to it and do not sell it, also there is no point in running with it since my master can track it back. I will come to buy it back from you"

The boy spoke with some difficulty. It was clear to any onlookers that he was extremely unwilling to part with it and only did so because he had no other choice.

Simon sighed, he didn't expect the boy to go so far as to sell a keepsake from his master just so he could pay back his dues when he had so many other forceful methods available to him. Especially, given the presence the boy had at such a young age, Simon could tell that he was strong.

It wouldn't be surprising if the boy thought that martial prowess could solve everything. But the approach he took, left a good impression of him on Simon.

Simon glanced at the fancy looking short sword a few more before passing it back, he then waved his hands and rejected the offer from the boy. If he had to state a reason, then it would be because he had the [Armory] and [Ga??????] option with him thus weapons had the least appeal to him.

Other than that, Simon was currently masquerading as a human and didn't want to take something as troublesome as the short sword that could be constantly tracked by someone.

Handing over the three silver coins from his space ring, Simon got out of the establishment and started walking when the boy hurriedly followed. Before he could get annoyed at him, the boy ran in front of him and bowed his head in thanks.

His straight poise and well mannerism, made it seem like that too were drilled onto him.

"I sincerely thank you for paying my share of the food too. Although you have rejected the short sword, I don't have any other valuable thing on me. So at least let me state that I, Denzel Caius Sanguine owe you one".

Simon nonchalantly nodded his head at those words and started walking once again. He wanted to get away from the boy as soon as possible since he could tell that the boy's background was anything was simple and also because he didn't want to get encompassed in all of it.

"Ah wait mister since you have been so nice to me, I'll let you know about something interesting," the boy said while looking at his back.

"You can earn a massive sum of money if you report it back to the authorities of this kingdom" the boy pressed on but Simon did not stop, he simply waved his hands back in an attempt to get away from this kid when the next words the boy said made him stop in his tracks.

"Demon"… Simon's eyes widened and his body had frozen on the spot.

"Those people upstairs were saying something about seeing a Demon Noble" the boy iterated grinning ear to ear.

Simon turned around and carefully observed the boy, his genuine expression told him that the latter was telling the truth.

The trinket of Grimlock was still working and he didn't come across a truly strong person that could break the effect. If that was the case then how? While Simon was wondering that, Denzel approached closer and spoke lowering his voice.

"What do you say mister, do you want to track those two and see what they are up to? Looking at their dress up, I'm pretty sure that they are goons of some organisation. Who knows we might even be able to find that Demon they were talking about".

His mischievous character was on full display.

Simon fell silent for a while, it would be a lie if he said he was not curious about the Demon they were talking about and thinking back to the gaze the grey-robed guy threw at him, he knew that something was up.

Was he too confident and overly reliant on the trinket of Grimlock that his identity was busted without even him realising? But then again, this was an item said to be an ancient artefact and given to him by Adalinda. How can it be so easy to see through it?

Sorting all of his thoughts using the evolved Superior tier normal skill [High-Speed Thought Processing], Simon decided to follow the boy and investigate more about those two people who were regarded as troublemakers by the mysterious old man.

In any case, now that he was aware of it, he couldn't just ignore it.

Inside the royal palace of Ellesmere, in one of the halls specifically made to receive guests.

The room was spacious with windows spread open to provide plenty of sunlight and air to come in. Placed in the centre of the room, was a set of sofas. Seated in those sofas were the royal family of this kingdom and the delegates that had arrived from the Sanguine Empire.

King Henry, smiled and exchanged a few words of pleasantry with the royal court magician of the Sanguine Empire. Vouves laughed at the flattering words of the king of Ellesmere, given his position as a Ranker approved by the adventurer's association, he was used to people trying to get on his good side.

"Haha, I'm truly sorry to trouble you all with this matter" he said humbling himself.

"What is Sir Vouves saying, helping to find prince Denzel who has gone missing in our capital city is only natural and what we should be doing. There is no need for you to be worried, we will find him soon before he gets into any danger" Alstin said.

Alice seated beside her master, kept her eyes closed and sat elegantly without trying to comment. However, the guards that came with them tried to stop their laughter from leaking out at those words.

"What is elder brother saying, how can the sole disciple of the [Sword King] and one of the two greatest talents of Sanguine Empire, get into danger?" at this moment a clear sound of heels clacking on the floor rang out and the beguiling figure of Cynthia came into view.

She first addressed her father, brother and the people from the foreign nation before finding a seat.

"Hoho, so she is that exceptional daughter of yours who at the tender age of just thirteen managed to create a merchant organisation of her own and established herself as a successful businesswoman" Vouves caressed his bear and commented.

"Sir Vouves praises me too much, I just did what I excel at the most. Setting aside all that, the Serene Palace Merchant guild has still not reached the stage where I can be proud of it yet".

Vouves laughed, whereas King Herny nodded his head. Her words meant that establishing an organisation that was able to set its foothold all over the kingdom, was still not big enough of an achievement for her to take pride in.

Her temperament and attitude, pleased them greatly.

Alstin's brows twitched ever so slightly; however, he never allowed the amiable smile to falter from his face. He said:

"Dear sister is right, prince Denzel's martial achievement is something to be awed at. However, it is still not good for a royalty to roam around the streets without any escorts. Who knows if people with evil intentions would try to trick him or not? That is why I have sent my soldiers all around the city to find the prince".

King Henry watched all of this with a peaceful face, it was clear to him that his eldest son wanted to have the support of Vouves which would help him in the future to claim the throne.

'His mind is sharp and his determination does not lag behind anyone else. However, his martial prowess and temperament leave much to be desired' King henry thought internally.

,m 'Now then should I probe around their intention behind bringing their two greatest talent here?' although the answer was clear to him, he still wanted to hear it with his own ears.

Was the reward item this time which even he knew very little about, tempting enough for even the mid-tier nation such as the Sanguine empire to send two of their best talents?

"As Sir Vouves can see we are quite busy at this moment with the preparation of the upcoming 'Battle of the Finest' tournament that our kingdom holds every ten years and is something the citizen of the whole kingdom keeps an eye on. Can I ask to what do we owe the pleasure to for a person of your standing giving us a visit?".
