Became an Academy Penetrating Spearman

“I said no.”

“Why?”

“Because it’s suspicious.”

“Ah, I’m suspicious~ Where am I being suspicious, oppa?”

“It’s the same as the first time. If you’re a trader, you must have a lot of money. You can get most of what you want. That’s you.”

I watched Sasha’s expression as I fidgeted with the amulet around my neck.

“If it’s worth noting, then this amulet must be of considerable value. I don’t have to sell it to you.”

“Yeah~ I think there’s some misunderstanding. I personally like that amulet. If I take it to another merchant, I won’t get much of it. In that case, I’ll get a good price…”

Ignoring Sasha’s words, I glanced at the amulet.

“Are the gems embedded in this amulet worthwhile? If so, it would be worth taking out and selling just these gems…”

Bang!

Sasha, who had been smiling until just now, gets up while hitting her table and glares at me.

A face more suited to the cold eyes covered in her smile.

“I can’t stand it when you damage that amulet, oppa.”

Okay now.

“Huh, finally we can talk.”

“What?”

“I’m not going to deal with liars. So far you’ve been saying you just like it, it looks good… But there’s a lot to be suspicious about that. So if you really want to make a deal, tell me.”

“What do you mean?”

“What this amulet is. What it means to you. Let’s make a deal after that.”

Sasha sits back in her chair and her wavy tail moves and she closes her eyes for about three seconds before opening her mouth.

“In other words… you mean you didn’t like my lying, so you stumbled upon it?”

“The most effective way to get people to tell their true feelings is to make them angry.”

Of course, there are cases where all nonsensical voices come out.

I’ve seen it a lot when we were having discussions about guessing settings.

“hahahahaha, oppa… You have a really nice personality, don’t you?”

“You’re the one who made the mistake of spouting lies in a transaction where you risked something precious. To me, of course.”

I tapped the amulet with my index finger.

“Isn’t this rude?”

“Haa, you talk more like a merchant than a merchant, brother. I lost. I’m sorry. I was lying as you said.”

“Okay. Then tell me. What is this thing? Is it worth that much?”

I already know what kind of thing it is, but I urge you to directly bring out the story from Sasha.

So that the relationship with Sasha can deepen by letting her tell the story of her past.

Just in time, tea and apple pie arrived.

Sasha had a cup of her tea and started talking about herself.

“That amulet…is a very precious thing to me. It’s a keepsake from my deceased parents.”

“A keepsake?”

“Yes. My parents were also traders. But while I was on the way with the goods I was carrying, I was attacked. I was young. Most of my goods were stolen and my parents died during the raid.”

“Hmm. Then how did you know that this is a keepsake?”

“My mother showed it to me when I was little. She said she would give me the amulet as a gift when I came back after finishing the deal. I hoped my parents would finish the deal and come back sooner…

When I was young, that amulet never returned to me. Oh, by the way, there can’t be such things as order made. It’s the only thing in the world.”

“I see.”

“Even after my parents passed away, I wanted to find them. I always told the merchants to explain the characteristics of the amulet and to let me know if they found it.

And the news came two days ago. Recently, my brother, who has been rumored to be a bandit hunter, is wandering the streets with mementos.”

“I see. That’s why you came to see me.”

“Yes, that’s right. That’s all I’m talking about. So now… Are you really ready to trade?”

Sasha looked at me with an eye smile again.

It was clear that if we bounced one more time here, the relationship would go very wrong, rather than deepening.

“Yes.”

In reply, she ate a piece of apple pie that had just arrived.

“Make a deal.”

The corner of Sasha’s mouth went up.

“Okay! Then let’s set the price right away? Oppa~ You got rid of that bandit executive who might be my parents’ enemy, so I’ll take care of the amount so you won’t be disappointed!”

“No, I refrain from selling for money.”

“Yes? What do you mean by that? No way! I was moved by my story, so it’s free…!”

“That’s not it.”

“It’s such a pity. Then what do you want, oppa?”

“Before that, I’ll ask you one question, Sasha. How do you see my worth?”

“You mean brother’s value? Hmm~.”

Sasha thought for a moment as she repeatedly opened and closed her fingertips together before opening her mouth.

“You can see him as a talented person with a lot of potential. To be honest, I did my own research before coming to find him.”

“Tell me.”

“When he came to Valendia, he came to Valendia with only a spear and 3 goblin magic stones. He’s an ordinary young man from the countryside.

However, he was a true bandit hunter who went on the same day to catch the bandit and continued to hunt the bandit for two weeks. He caught not only the foot soldiers, but also the elite, and the other day, he caught even the executives… An extraordinary talent.

First of all, except for the information about the amulet, I think my older brother is about this.”

“Is that so? Sasha…”

This is the main point.

“Would you like to invest in me?”

“Investment? Are you really going to open a business? Hmm~ In that case, it is possible to give you some simple advice while giving you the investment money.”

“No, that’s not an investment.”

“What if?”

“I want you to become a volunteer.”

“Applicants?”

Sasha blinks her round eyes.

“I’m going to the academy.”

“Oh, the academy! I’m sure you can get into the academy with your skills. But the academy doesn’t need tuition, right?”

“All I want is equipment support.”

“Equipment Support….”

“As you can see, I can’t say my equipment is good. Compared to the level of that academy, I mean.”

“Well… I see. You can enter the academy regardless of your status as long as you have skills, but most of the time, the children of noble families, renowned samurai, or nobles enter the academy.”

“When I go to the academy, I will make a party and hunt a lot of monsters. To do that, I need good quality equipment. Of course, I’m not the only one who has a good story.

The materials and magic stones of the monsters I hunted are all traded through Cats. However, even when trading, I want you to buy it at a slightly higher price than the usual unit price.”

Just like Lupan’s Meow Fei.

“Aha, what you want isn’t just a deal… It’s a contract, right?”

The corner of Sasha’s mouth went up even more, and her face became that of a merchant.

“But I have a question, brother.”

“What? Did you not like the content?”

“No, no, that’s understandable. If that’s enough, considering that you’ve returned your belongings and avenged your parents’ enmity, that’s enough! Yes! It’s quite possible.

But… The question is, will my brother really keep the terms of the contract? I also met several people while doing business.

Among them, I have seen people who, despite having signed a contract emphasizing the words “Definitely, never, never, definitely”, Goofing around, evading, or shamelessly going out without knowing me~.”

After all, this is my first meeting with Sasha, not through the event story.

It is impossible to completely gain Sasha’s trust.

“Of course, it’s not that I don’t trust you completely. Yes, it’s like going to the academy and using other stores. That could be the case, right?

If my brother gets a rare material and a merchant passing by by chance asks him to sell it because he will give you more money, he will sell it? Something so disappointing could happen, right?

I know that’s not going to happen… How will you prove it?”

Perhaps because she talked a lot, she took a sip of the tea and continued her words with the sound of the cup being clicked.

“Ah, of course I will sign the contract even if I have some doubts. This is just a question, so please answer lightly.”

Sasha’s question was a question that could not give an exact answer or proof.

To prove her trust by citing a family affair that never happened in the first place.

If you haven’t been together for a long time, you’ll have to prove the trust you’ve built up over the years.

Since I met Sasha for the first time today, there is no such thing as trust.

All she has is grace for returning her belongings and killing a man who might be her parents’ enemy.

Grace cannot prove trust instead.

Isn’t the contract concluded anyway?

‘It’s okay to try this once.’

“Proof… That’s all I can offer.”

“Oh, what is it?”

Sasha looks at me with curious eyes.

When she provoked the bandit cadre Ruby De.

I said it with willpower that it would be nice if there was a proper provocation so that Rubid wouldn’t run away.

And the result.

[The provocation resistance has been penetrated.]

An unexpected phenomenon occurred with a notification sound.

A skill that has changed since coming to this world.

Spearmanship Mastery, as if reaching the pinnacle of spearmanship, the moment the spear is used, the trajectory of the spear becomes visible and can move according to the trajectory.

It was written that the penetration skill penetrates everything.

If that’s the case, then a person’s emotions or mind can also be the target of penetration.

I have already experienced the result in the fight against the bandit leader Rubid.

Looking straight at Sasha, firmly conscious and determined.

Sasha can trust me.

So that Sasha doesn’t suspect me.

I said it with a feeling of putting my will on her tongue and shooting it towards Sasha’s mind, who had doubts about me.

In other words, the piercing muzzle technique.

“Trust me.”

[Penetrated the doubt]

How does this work?
