Chapter 85 - It\'s a blessing
Once Ren was done eating, since learning that Iselv was more interesting than what he initially thought, he and the others headed to the Northern District where Iselv was at. Ren decided that it was about time to show Hilda what he was doing on the side, so he brought her along as well.
When the group got to the Northern district and headed deeper in, Hilda\'s face changed greatly. The Northern District was a den or p.r.o.s.tit.u.t.es and has a lot of drug dealers. Yet now she noticed the p.r.o.s.tit.u.t.es, but the usual shady drug dealings that usually happens here and there were nowhere to be found.
Also, Hilda noticed the change of atmosphere in the Northern District. She couldn\'t pinpoint the change but she was sure that something was different in the air. This wasn\'t the same Northern District she remembered, but what could have possibly happened that would change it this much, so suddenly?
...
Ren finally reached the place where Kithra and Iselv were staying at. Kithra sensing Ren\'s presence immediately went out to greet him.
"Oh my, Sir Ren to what do I owe the pleasure of you visiting?" Kithra smiled coquettishly, her voice would tickle the strings of any man, well at the moment there were two men that weren\'t really affected.
"I need to see Iselv, I have something important that I need to talk to him about. " The moment Ren said this, a huge giant of a man popped out. Hilda who saw Kithra and Iselv, immediately knew who they were. Well anyone in this town knew who these two people are. The enchanting beauty talking sweetly to Ren was the witch of the Northern District Kithra, and the giant of a man was the bandit king Iselv.
Two of the three kings of the underworld of Grenton stood before her and acted subservient to Ren. This made Hilda\'s head spin. Didn\'t Ren just arrive in this town a few weeks ago? When the hell did he subdue two of the three kings?!
\'Wait don\'t tell me it\'s not just these two, but even the third one was done in by him?\' The third one she was talking about was none other than Gregory.
\'That can\'t be, he\'s the best assassin of this kingdom.\' Hilda then looked at Ren who was having a conversation with the two kings of Grenton\'s underworld. \'No, if it\'s him then it might be possible.\'
That was a guy who even laughed at the face of an A rank monster, and killed it like it was nothing more than an ant waiting to be stepped on.
...
"What do you want?" Iselv looked at Ren still with a dissatisfied look. He might not be able to do anything to Ren physically, but he still wanted to glare at the b*stard even though it was nothing more than a little act of defiance.
"Is that the way you should be talking to me? You are still working under me, or are you about to start a mutiny?" Ren smiled as he said that. Iselv who saw that smile made him shiver in fear. He then bit his lower lip until it bled.
"Sorry sir, I meant what is it you need of me, sir?"
"No need to be that polite, just don\'t talk to me like your growling and we\'ll be alright."
\'What the hell does this b*stard want from me!\' Islev screamed in his mind.
"Alright then, so what is it you want?"
"Well that\'s better, a bit stiff but overall alright. Okay then I have some exciting news to tell you and it\'s regarding your mana pool."
The moment the topic changed to his mana pool, Iselv half irritated half I don\'t give a f*ckm look turned into something of pure passion. It was finally happening, the moment he so waited to happen was happening. He could finally get away from being labeled as manaless thrash, by those high horsed b*stards. Well nowadays no one dares messes with him, but that was that, and this was this.
"What are you finally going to help me make my mana pool larger?" Iselv said excitedly.
"Hmm, actually it is impossible to make your mana pool larger."
"WHAT!? I thought you told me, that you could do it! The whole reason I\'m even following your command is because you told me that you\'re going to make my mana pool larger?! If you ain\'t going to do that, then I might as well fight you here and now! Sh*t I\'ll tear that little head of yours from your body." Iselv angrily started to curse at Ren. It would seem like he completely forgot that Ren easily subdued him last time.
"Before you do anything stupid like suicide how about you listen to me first." When Ren said this he sent killing intent Iselv\'s way, which made his whole body freeze. Everyone present didn\'t feel the killing intent Ren was sending Iselv, but they did hear what Ren said. He said that Iselv\'s idea of attacking Ren was equivalent to suicide. What an apt description of how to describe the situation. Seeing that Iselv finally shut upped Ren continued what he was saying.
"So I understand why you\'re so angry, but don\'t you think it\'s foolish to throw your life away because of a little anger? Well anyway, the reason I won\'t be able to increase your mana pool is cause you do not possess a curse, instead, you have a blessing."
"A blessing?" Iselv was now confused after hearing what Ren said.
\'Did this b*stard call my inability to expand my mana pool a blessing? This f*cking state of being unable to expand my mana pool, that gave me so much hardship was a blessing? Is this guy on drugs on something?\' Ren seeing Iselv\'s look could pretty much guess what he was thinking.
"Let me explain, your ability doesn\'t allow you to expand your mana pool, but instead your ability is something that burns your mana and turns it, into your strength. Still, that isn\'t the true blessing given to you by this ability. No the true blessing of this ability is that it is proof that you are part of the royal family."
When Ren said this, aside from Valdel everybody looked at him dumbly. Even the ever stoic Lara was actually showing a rare look of confusion, and then as if they rehearsed it they all shouted in sync with each other.
"WHAT?!"
