Chapter 517 Adventurers and mercenaries

Cecilia was surprised to hear this, but she gave a nod before turning to gather the ones that I asked her to gather.

During this time, I turned back to look at the dungeon. I didn\'t even know what I was looking for, but I just couldn\'t help staring at it for a bit.

After a long silence, I turned around and walked back into the camp.

I went to the large tent in the middle which was the central command tent.

When I came in, I found that there were people that were already in this tent. The way that they were sitting, it was as if they had been here for a while.

Though I could see that many of them were injured and covered in bandages. They should have just received treatment.

They had been talking to each other, but they fell silent when they saw me come in.

These people that were gathered were the representatives of the mercenaries and adventurers. Though there were far more adventurer representatives than mercenary representatives.

That was just the difference between the two.

Mercenaries worked in large groups while adventurers worked in small groups.

Adventurers partied up in small groups while mercenaries formed large companies.

So the adventurers sent representatives for each party which was why they completely outnumbered the mercenary representatives.

The mercenaries only had three representatives, all of which were the leaders of their own company.

Though one of them really looked like they shouldn\'t be here.

This was a bald headed muscular man who was wrapped up in bandages, showing that he had been seriously wounded. Someone like him should be resting in bed, but here he was sitting in on the meeting.

There was even a cute red headed girl who was helping him, though it was clear by the look on her face that she wanted him to rest instead.

But bringing a girl to a meeting like this…he really was something else.

Though I can\'t say anything since Cecilia also moved to my side when she saw me come in.

I walked through all of these adventurers and mercenaries that were all looking at me, as if they were sizing me up.

I didn\'t pay any attention to the gazes from them as I went right to the front of the tent and stood there in front of everyone.

I turned around, but I didn\'t say a thing as I swept my eyes over them.

At first, the adventurers and mercenaries looked like they looked down on me based on my appearance. However, they couldn\'t help looking down when my eyes swept over them as they felt a pressure come over them.

This was the pressure that I had built up over my time here as a noble.

Without adapting, it would have been impossible to survive here and going through life and death situations had made me much stronger than before.

So at the very least, I had enough pressure to threaten these adventurers and mercenaries.

Seeing them all look down like this, I gave a nod and said, "We will continue exploring this dungeon, that is all that I have to say on this matter."

All of the adventurers and mercenaries revealed shocked looks when they heard this.

They had thought that the reason that they had been called like this was to discuss whether they would continue exploring this dungeon or not. They never thought that as soon as the count arrived, he would just say something like this.

He didn\'t even ask for their opinions, he just stated it like a fact.

The adventurers and mercenaries all had complicated looks on their faces after hearing this.

After a while, one of the adventurers finally couldn\'t take it and said, "Your lordship, this…"

Before he could say another world, I was already looking at him with narrowed eyes and had put pressure on him.

That adventurer immediately closed his mouth and lowered his head.

Adventurers were commoners in the end and even if they were strong, that didn\'t mean that they could go against an entire country. So the only thing that they could do was bow down in front of the prestige of a noble.

After staring him down, I looked at the rest of them and said, "How much?"

All of the adventurers and mercenaries looked up in shock after hearing this.

They looked at me with confused looks like they couldn\'t understand what I was trying to say.

I just calmly said, "How much do you want?"

All of them revealed shocked looks this time, but still not a single person spoke.

They were hesitating, they didn\'t know what the situation was, so they didn\'t dare rashly charge in and make a mistake.

I couldn\'t help shaking my head when I saw them like this.

Simply put, they were overthinking it.

I was actually about to throw money at them since I knew that money would make this matter go away.

I had the goddess of wealth Haley on my side, so it wasn\'t as if I lacked funds to do this.

It was more important to clear out this dungeon to eliminate any dangers in the future.

After a long period of silence, it was the adventurer who had spoken earlier who said, "Your lordship, can I ask if you\'re serious?"

I looked at him and gave a simple nod.

Seeing this, the adventurer then said, "Twenty gold coins?"

"Thirty it is for everyone." I said with a simple nod before saying, "Any objections?"

The adventurers all shook their heads when they heard this.

In the first place, they were only being paid ten gold coins a group to explore this dungeon and now that had jumped to thirty with just a few words?

How could they complain about anything?

It was just too bad that they didn\'t know that this was just the first offer that I was willing to make.

I had been planning to go up to five times the price if they weren\'t willing to accept this, but it seemed that I had overestimated these people.

It seemed that they didn\'t have as much ambition as I thought they did.

Since they were fine with just this, then there was nothing for me to say.

All of the adventurers and mercenaries revealed excited looks when they heard this, except for one.

The bald man with the red haired girl.

He had his brows knitted during all of this, as if there was something that he was displeased with.

But he was the one that I was the most concerned about since he was the one that was in charge of the largest mercenary group.

The other two were smaller mercenary groups that could be replaced, but it was hard to find a replacement for this mercenary group that had over a hundred members. They were basically a small army.

So I had to do something about this leader of theirs that seemed like he was displeased.
