"Seriously?" Hearing Julian mention a name that he was familiar with, Valyr let out a slightly exasperated sigh. Pondering over the man's suggestion for a bit, it did not take long for him to eventually conclude that Julian recommending Braum made quite a lot of sense.
After all, Braum was the leader of the Imperial Production Guild's 3rd Reconnaissance Team. That alone was more than enough proof that he and the members of his group were great at information gathering, if the word 'Reconnaissance' wasn't already enough of a clue.
"So… do you know of him… or not?" Slightly surprised that the young man before him let out a sigh all of a sudden, Julian gave the young man a bit of time to think about it. Feeling like he had given him enough, it was only then did he ask once more.
"I know of him… I know of him very well." Valyr wryly smiled as he looked at Julian. "How could I not if his group was the sole reason I was able to arrive at Algerie Kingdom in the first place?"
"Really?" Listening to Valyr's words, Julian's eyes widened in slight surprise. After that, he let out a brief chuckle."I guess I don't have to explain a lot regarding him, then," said the man, to which Valyr nodded in agreement.
"Then again, how much do you know about him?" Just as Julian was about to end the topic then and there, the man decided to make sure, asking Valyr a question.
"He's the leader of the Imperial Production Guild's 3rd Reconnaissance Team," replied Valyr. "He's also at the peak of Rank 4, specifically an Epic due to him comprehending an Intent."
"Huh. There really isn't much for me to explain." Julian let out a bit of laughter as some of the information Valyr had given him was something even he had not gotten his hands on. "Though, did you know that he became the leader of the guild's 3rd Reconnaissance Team solely due to his information gathering abilities alone?"
"Not at all." Valyr shook his head, recalling the man's confrontation against the mayor of Clossbay City back then. To him, he wouldn't have been surprised if he had gotten that position thanks to his strength.
"How about those on the 1st and 2nd Reconnaissance Team?" Thinking about how Braum was the leader of the Imperial Production Guild's 3rd Reconnaissance Team, Valyr asked Julian a question that seemed to be in topic. "Aren't they great at information gathering as well?"
"They are." Julian nodded in agreement. "However, unlike Braum, the services of the 1st and 2nd Reconnaissance Teams aren't really available to us, even to people with high authority like me.""For the lack of a better term, those two reconnaissance teams have dedicated their entire lives to aiding the Imperial Production Guild," he continued. "Even if the Imperial Production Guild is destroyed tomorrow, they'll make sure that they're going to die along with it."
"Yikes," Valyr could not help but blurt out. In response, Julian flashed a wry smile at the young man.
"In any case, if you don't have Braum on your friend list, I could help you contact him." Deciding to shift the topic somewhere else, Julian made a suggestion all of a sudden. "After that, I'll tell you the specific locations of the three organizations I mentioned, as well as their ways on contacting them."
"I have him on my friend list," said Valyr as he responded to Julian's first statement. "I'll just ask him about it once I return home."
"Alright then." Nodding, Julian went ahead and shared with Valyr all the information the latter needed to know about the three organizations, may it be their services, their prices, or the limits they have on what information they could retrieve.
…
"I'll probably come back here tomorrow." Once Julian had made sure that the young man had committed everything he needed to know to memory, it was only then did he allow the young man to leave, bidding each other farewell.
"To forge some equipment in preparation for the inheritance, right?" Hearing Valyr's words, Julian nodded in understanding. "Don't worry. I'll make sure to keep the best private workshop available for you."
"If you could also buy the Wyvern Core for me, I'd highly appreciate it." Thanking Julian for his goodwill, a thought surfaced in his mind all of a sudden, prompting him to talk about it.
"Sure, I don't mind." Julian laughed as he nodded. "I'll have to take around 20 platinum cards from you to make sure you get it tomorrow, though."
"Speaking of which, do you want me to give you the remaining profit from the spear right now? Or do you want me to keep it safe for the meantime?" Mentioning money in his question, Julian decided to ask the young man another question while the latter had yet to leave.
"Hmm… I don't really have much need for the remaining profit for the meantime." Scratching the back of his head as he pondered, Valyr responded to the question. "After all, three platinum cards is plenty enough money for me to feed myself till death."
"That's only applicable if you forgo delicacies," said the man, laughing. "Alright, go leave. I'll see you tomorrow. I still have to prepare my final surprise for you since you won that leader title."
"You've got to be kidding me…" Muttering these words to himself, Valyr shook his head while chuckling, finally leaving the Blacksmith Guild to make his way back to the inn.
"I wonder if Wells decided to look for a couple possible subclasses to take while I was away." Roaming through the streets of Algerie Kingdom at a relaxed pace, Valyr thought to himself that it had been a while since he had taken his time while getting back to the inn.
Though, just as he thought that his day would be uneventful till sunset…
"Uh… excuse me, sir…"
"Do you perhaps have any food to spare?"
