Chapter Index

    “….”

    My eyes became dizzy when I saw the measurement results that the civil servant told me.

    ‘I think the voice I heard at that time was clearly about character creation or something.’

    If that’s true, then the age of this body… isn’t one year old, it’s just like a newborn!

    In addition, there is the second type of blood alcoholic beverage.

    From what I remember, this is a case where the blood strain is immature and needs help from someone else.

    In the game, there was also a branch where vampire players who reached the level of true ancestors helped that type of blood lord and became regents of a blood clan.

    In short, there was a newborn scarecrow that was easy to control… so it was tempting the true ancestors with all its might.

    “Sil, Sylvia!”

    “…Are you the woman over there?”

    Rather than thinking on my own, I decided to get Sylvia’s help.

    The official immediately moved Sylvia to my side when I shouted her name.

    “What’s going on?”

    Before I could answer, the official informed Silvia of the measurement results.

    “….”

    Sylvia also seemed to have more thoughts after seeing my measurement results.

    Her expression of contemplation gave me a very different feeling.

    “Is there a possibility that the measurement was wrong?”

    “Oh, please wait a moment. Let’s measure again.”

    No one here welcomed that result.

    From a public servant’s perspective, it must be a bit burdensome to know that the recipient of the blood donation is a newborn baby.

    The Jinjo guys targeting me could have threatened her.

    “Chris, sometimes things like this happen. You don’t have to worry too much.”

    “…Really?”

    I wanted to believe what Sylvia said.

    But her arms were trembling slightly for some reason.

    Youngmin and Deoksu, who were watching us from afar, looked curious about what was going on.

    Despite Sylvia’s comfort, I was so distraught that I felt like I was going to die.

    How many seconds and how many minutes passed?

    After a tedious wait, the figure of the civil servant finally approached us.

    But, disturbingly, she showed us the measurement results again without saying a word.

    Age is 1 year, blood lineage is type 2.

    ‘what? What’s changed? ‘It’s the same as before!’

    “Are you sure you measured it correctly?”

    “…Yes, the result was the same as before.”

    The government official’s desperation-sounding voice made me more anxious.

    “Silvia… What should we do?”

    “Is your supervisor or responsible person aware of these results?”

    In response to Sylvia’s question, the civil servant made a suggestion.

    Regarding age, that is, writing down the age-related part as apparently 12 years old.

    “Then what about blood alcohol?”

    “The part about age is a difference in expression, but the part about blood lineage is inevitable.”

    “Can I contact the outside world for a moment?”

    The civil servant hesitated for a moment at Sylvia’s request, but approved contact with the outside world, perhaps because it was his first time experiencing the situation.

    As soon as contact with the outside world was possible, he continued to try to contact his acquaintances.

    “Yes, it’s been a while. It’s no different…”

    But the contact did not end with just one time. It seemed like she got in touch with someone she wanted through a friend of an acquaintance.

    Then suddenly the shape of the civil servant in front of us changed.

    -Pajijijik.

    The newly displayed figure with an unstable force field accompanied by an unsettling sound effect… took on the shape of a man.

    “Silvia, what on earth is going on?”

    “…I didn’t even know it would be like this.”

    The figure continued to admire and sigh while checking the results of my measurements.

    “Hey, so there’s really no way?”

    “….”

    The figure came closer to me and Sylvia.

    “I think I can lower the blood system with my authority.”

    “To what extent?”

    “Jinjo, Upir level.”

    In the blood world, blood masters are classified by type, but blood ghosts and true ancestors are classified by their unique names.

    The Upir mentioned by the official in front of me was a representative example of the so-called noble vampires.

    “Then, his age is apparently 12 years old and his blood lineage is listed as Jinjo and Upir.”

    “To summarize, yes.”

    “…Can’t you lower it a little bit?”

    My thoughts were the same as Sylvia’s. If you’re going to lower it, I think it would be better.

    “No. It’s too dangerous. Even just this much has reduced it a lot. And if the difference between the actual and the written information is too big, it will be easier to notice.”

    “But just the sudden appearance of a true-level vampire has a ripple effect…”

    “It’s not like a bloodsucker-level vampire appears.”

    “…Okay. Thank you for your help.”

    Ah… unfortunately, Jinjo seemed to be the limit.

    Afterwards, the official moved my other guarantors, Young-min and Deok-su, to our side.

    The main guarantor was Youngmin, and Deoksu was also one of the secondary guarantors, so he confirmed my measurement results.

    “….”

    “….”

    The reaction of the two people was as expected.

    “Are you really saying that Chris is the true ancestor?”

    The figure did not answer Youngmin’s question, but only turned its face towards me and Sylvia.

    “Chris, what should we do?”

    “…What?”

    Oh, are you asking whether I should tell you that my real blood lineage is blood lord?

    It’s because of Ildong’s office that Sylvia and I got caught up in this fight.

    Not only is it a guarantee for me to become an apprentice troubleshooter, but Youngmin helped me along with Sylvia…

    “I’ll tell you the truth.”

    “First of all, I will do my best and it will be written like this in the official documents. Chris’ bloodline is not his ancestor, but his bloodline.”

    “….”

    “….”

    No, I was going to say it myself!

    The two people who heard Sylvia’s words, especially Deoksu, opened their mouths and didn’t know how to close them.

    I don’t know much about Youngmin, who is younger than him.

    He seemed to know that my blood pressure level was abnormally high.

    “No, is that possible based on common sense?”

    “Mr. Deoksu. It’s strange to look for common sense in Magusfall in the first place.”

    “That’s true. Why is a person like this in the first place…”

    Deoksu seemed to need time to organize his thoughts.

    But unlike Deoksu, Youngmin was just looking at me.

    “Chris, do you really mind if I am the main guarantor?”

    The main guarantor must take the apprentice solver with him and work with him.

    Only then can an apprentice solver become a true problem solver after gaining field experience.

    But an apprentice troubleshooter whose blood lineage is the blood master.

    Even when I thought about it, it was funny.

    Who is learning from whom? But I nodded and said to Youngmin.

    “I’m fine.”

    No matter how strong my body was, my combat experience was poor.

    I had enough knowledge after playing Dream City for thousands of hours, but the characters on the computer fought. Because I didn’t fight.

    I couldn’t possibly explain this part to Youngmin.

    When we become a little closer or can rely on each other… then maybe we can reveal it.

    After hearing my answer, Youngmin turned to the civil servant and asked where he could sign.

    “Youngmin. wait for a sec. This is not an easy problem to think about…”

    “Brother, you’ve already come this far.”

    “Ha….”

    In the midst of Deoksu’s deep lament, I received confirmation of the three solvers’ guarantees.

    Afterwards, the four of us were transferred from the space we had just been in to the front of the window.

    “Here is your apprenticeship settlement visa.”

    The female civil servant who first greeted us handed us an apprenticeship certificate containing my personal information.

    “There’s a lot to say, but let’s get right back to it.”

    Following Sylvia’s words, we moved forward.

    Fortunately, we weren’t attacked or anything until we got to the bar.

    However, when we arrived at the bar, Martin was waiting for us in the captain’s chair, with various equipment strapped to his body.

    “Boss.”

    “Martin, what does that look like?”

    “I also switched back to being an active troubleshooter.”

    Is it for Helga’s revenge? Or maybe it was for his own survival.

    It was clear that the power had increased further.

    In response to this, Deoksu said that their office had already applied for a duel trial to the Conakry office.

    “Helga’s job didn’t work out, but it can’t cause any more harm to you.”

    “Then, I will be included in the duel trial. Because I have no intention of just suffering.”

    Deoksu reacted to Martin’s request as if he was troubled.

    “Silvia, shouldn’t you stop her?”

    “Hmm. Then let’s do it like this.”

    “Honestly, at the point where Helga was attacked, I don’t think that office will try to end this matter with a duel trial alone.”

    “The boss is right.”

    Martin responded to Sylvia’s words.

    “So, I hope you will at least provide support to us.”

    “Is there anything you want?”

    “To be honest, except for Martin, Chris and I are not skilled in long-distance combat. Can I ask for a portable force field sprayer?”

    “There are spares in the office. Anything else besides that?”

    In response to Deoksu’s answer, Sylvia turned her gaze to me.

    “Uh, as long as it’s a suitable gun, I’m fine with anything.”

    Deoksu responded to my request as if there was no problem.

    “Mr. Deoksu, don’t worry too much. There is no need for us to attack them separately while the duel trial is taking place. It’s just a matter of responding if they attack us.”

    “Okay. Honestly, I’m not sure how the situation will unfold, considering that information about Chris here will spread.”

    uh? What do you mean?

    “Why my information?”

    “Chris, the personal information about the apprentice troubleshooter is leaked somehow. Offices, guilds, and associations are always keeping a close eye on them.”

    Ah… was that what you were talking about? These are the ones who are hell-bent on scraping off the mature seedlings from the very beginning.

    Here in Maguspol, there is not only a fixer’s office.

    There are guilds made up of several offices, and associations made up of guilds and other interest groups.

    Skills are important, but in order to become a mid-level or advanced solver, connections are also important.

    “So, you’re saying there will be people targeting me, Jinjo?”

    “That’s right. They may be able to help us in this matter… but there is a high possibility that they will not.”

    Ah, it seems like the problem is getting more and more complicated.

    “For now, let’s go back to the office.”

    Meanwhile, Deoksu said he would go back to the office with Youngmin and bring things for Sylvia and me.

    After the two men disappeared, Martin continued to focus on strengthening the bar’s defense posture.

    Sylvia couldn’t just watch and continued to contact someone.

    “…Shall I help you too?”

    “Then it’s me who is thankful.”

    The atmosphere was too much to just sit still. I ended up following Martin and starting moving various items.

    In the meantime, customers came to us thinking the bar was operating as usual, but due to the situation, we had no choice but to send them away.

    “Oh my, my sister is having a hard time because of those guys.”

    In the meantime, the people who called me ‘sister’ thought about me.

    Thank you, though. It feels really weird, right?

    Afterwards, before the sun was out, another troubleshooter from Youngmin and Ildong’s office came out and brought the items that Sylvia had requested.

    First up is the portable force field sprayer.

    It was something Sylvia had asked for, but mine was also included.

    With this, you can temporarily stop incoming bullets by spreading a force field over a certain area.

    It was a must-have item for users who preferred close combat in the game.

    Of course, it is not omnipotent. When using magic bullets, the effect was greatly halved, and it was not possible to cover multiple directions at the same time.

    “…But how do you use this?”

    “Wait a minute. I’ll tell you.”

    Silvia might not know, but I had no idea how it worked.

    Fortunately, Youngmin himself began to teach me how to wear it and its functions.

    “What, you know so well, why don’t you use it?”

    “Oh, I don’t really need it.”

    what? Does that mean you are that confident in your skills?

    Among the solvers I know, there is rarely a problem solver who refuses a portable force field sprayer.

    Anyway, I decided to learn completely how to use spray guns and firearms from Sylvia and Youngmin.

    An automatic pistol that could shoot magical bullets seemed to be perfect for me.

    Meanwhile, despite the efforts we and our office are making, the Conakry office was quieter than expected.

    In the past, we pushed so hard, and even after several days, not a single ant was seen.

    In addition, I received a call from Deoksu of the Ildong office.

    According to Deoksu, the Conakry office rejected the duel trial requested by the Ildong office.

    It made me wonder why the guys who worked so hard to take over the Silver Side were like this.
