But I just said, "How is becoming friends with the elves that important? The elves keep to themselves anyway, so it isn't as if it would change anything if I become friends with them."

Scar revealed a serious look and said, "The elves have many secrets that we humans don't know about. They are also powerful magic users and they have created many special items that we just have no knowledge of."

I just gave a simple nod in response to this, but for some reason that just served to provoke Scar.

He pointed at me and said, "You're still nodding like this? Like it doesn't concern you?"

I didn't know what to say since I really didn't understand what was so important about this.

Scar could see that from the expression on my face, so he shook his head again and said, "Just the fact that you've been able to create a way to contact the elves is big enough. We've never even managed that since they've always avoided contact with us other than the occasional traveling elf."

The more that he spoke, the more I began to understand.

It seemed that this trip to the capital wouldn't be as simple as meeting the king, but rather there would be other nobles and royals that would try to pull me to their side.

After all, if they were able to get the special magic and items of the elven race through me…their power would increase and they would have more influence.

Seeing the changing look on my face, Scar finally gave a sigh and said, "At least you're starting to understand."

I just gave a simple nod in response to this.

Seeing this, he revealed a smile and said, "Good, good, it seems that we can teach you common sense yet."

Shaka also let out a sigh of relief.

After all, as long as Zwein lacked common sense, it was him and his men that were put in the most danger.

He was happy to fight a demon since it meant keeping the kingdom safe, but fighting one every week at this point…it really was a bit too much even for him.

He wouldn't last at this rate…

Seeing that he finally had an effect on him, Scar then said, "Let me give you some good information then. You should at least learn the situation of the capital before we arrive so you can plan for yourself what you want to do."

This time, I didn't just casually nod along, but rather gave a serious nod.

That was because I knew that this would be actual important information for me.

The more I knew about the ones that I would be dealing with, the better I would be able to handle them.

So I carefully listened to what Scar had to say.

In my heart, I felt a bit of gratitude since I could feel the care that a boss had for his subordinate in his words. After all, he had specifically come all this way just to tell me all of this, so I would listen carefully.

Scar's first words weren't that surprising, "There's currently a power struggle in the capital. It's between the first prince and the second prince on who will take the throne."

I wasn't surprised at all since this was also in the game.

There was a main quest that involved competing for imperial power and that ended with the main character marrying the princess and taking the throne. It was a very intriguing plot that had involved both the first and second prince, but there was also a part of the plot that no one had expected.

Scar had paused for dramatic effect, but seeing that I wasn't as surprised, he continued, "There are many nobles that are flocking to the sides of the first and second prince, but there are also many nobles that are remaining neutral. The ones that are neutral might contact you so that they can use you to keep their neutrality, but you should expect more proactive contact from the nobles under the first and second prince. There's even a chance that either the first or second prince might contact you directly."

I gave a simple nod in response to this since this was all within my expectations.

Scar couldn't help feeling a bit annoyed with the way that I lacked a reaction, so he said, "You should know that the prime minister is supporting the first prince and the captain of the imperial guards is supporting the second prince. This is a fight between literary talents and military talents."

Once again, I just gave a simple nod since this was all knowledge that I already knew.

In fact, I knew that there was someone else who I should be more wary of because that person was amassing power in secret. So far, that person should already have power that surpassed both the first and second prince.

But that person wasn't making a move because unless they were confident they would win, they wouldn't act.

Right now, they were even plotting against their own father who controlled the power of the kingdom.

I didn't mind this kind of plot, but it would without a doubt destroy the peaceful life that I had wanted to build for myself…so I couldn't help hesitating on getting involved.

But then I made up my mind as I thought it through.

At this point, it didn't matter if I was willing to get involved or not since they were planning on dragging me into this in the first place. Even if I wanted to keep my distance, it was already too late since I had gotten involved in Shadow Garden.

They were the hands of the king after all.

So I couldn't help feeling both annoyed with and grateful towards Scar.

He had dragged me into this, but at least he was trying to take responsibility.

He really was a boss that cared about his subordinates, that was his one redeeming feature.

So I said, "Thank you for this information. I'll be careful."

Seeing the look in my eyes, Scar no longer looked as worried as before. He could see that I had already come up with my own plans, so there was no need for him to worry anymore.

So he just patted me on the shoulder and said with a sigh, "I know you will."

Then he suddenly revealed a smile as he said, "That's right, I heard about what happened in Bright Water City."

I couldn't help revealing a confused look as I didn't understand what he was trying to say, but his next words made it clear.

"It seems like Big Purple really was the right name for you." As he said this, he looked at me with a knowing smile.

But three black lines appeared on my face right away.

I turned to glare at Shaka, but he turned away and gave a cough.

It was clear that he had been the one that had reported this, but this was too much!

He could have left that part out!

I turned back and said in an exasperated voice, "It isn't what you think…"
