Mystery: Becoming a Creator Through the Doorway
Chapter 11 Tomorrow, pay will be distributed at the drill ground; armor is not required.
No one knows how horrified Eisinger Stanton was when he heard this request from his butler, Asnia, with his graying temples.
As a reader pathway sequence 7 guardian (detective), Isengard is an intelligent man.
Intelligent people tend to overthink.
No, buddy?
What do you mean I was just preparing to hold a secret gathering yesterday, and today someone comes to invite me for tea?
I haven't heard of any major events happening recently.
I was drenched in sweat and couldn't catch my breath.
And what's with this "I have a request" thing? Do you even believe that yourself?
Isn't this just a gas meter, or a sign saying "Tomorrow's pay will be issued at the drill ground; no need to wear armor"?
In Rune, the status of unofficial, wild extraordinary individuals has always been somewhat awkward.
In the eyes of the three major churches or military forces, wild extraordinary individuals can almost be regarded as a ticking time bomb and a destabilizing factor in society.
Once a wild extraordinary individual gets out of control, it becomes a high-risk case that brings no positive benefits whatsoever and only adds unnecessary trouble.
Normally, it's better to guide than to block, so these official forces turn a blind eye.
But some things don't weigh like they do.
But once it's on the scale, it weighs over a thousand pounds.
Isengard Stanton's identity is more or less awkward than that of a wild extraordinary individual.
Because he studied in Reynoldsburg for four years when he was young.
Reimborg, the capital, is the headquarters of the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom.
During his studies abroad, he converted to Christianity and became a believer in the "God of Knowledge and Wisdom".
Unfortunately, the Lord of Storms in the official faith of Rune has a very bad relationship with the God of Knowledge and Wisdom.
The impatient scapegoats, if they really wanted to deal with a heretic like Isengard, didn't even need a reason.
Even though he maintained a relatively good relationship with the police department, it was not enough for the police department to risk straining their relationship with these irritable old pigeons to bail him out.
In addition, because of his long career as a detective, Eisinger has offended some people to varying degrees, and there have been quite a few people who have sought revenge against him over the years.
It can be said that An Ruowang's act of directly opening other people's boxes is no less than someone suddenly coming to your door, accurately reciting your family tree, as well as the ID cards and phone numbers of everyone on the tree, and then asking you to come with him.
Asnia, an ordinary person, couldn't understand why the detective in front of her suddenly became nervous after he finished explaining the details of his request.
Out of professional competence as an experienced butler, he began to soothe the situation:
"Don't be nervous, Mr. Stanton. My master, Mr. Aleister, is not a difficult person to get along with."
In fact, if you follow securities trading, you may have heard my owner's name from others in the past few days.
My master has a unique eye for this and is quite well-known in the field.
Eisinger also noticed his lapse in composure.
The main issue was that his "thinking he was well hidden and no one could find out" state was suddenly exposed by others, which caused him to be somewhat stressed, like a soldier with PTSD after coming off the battlefield.
However, he was, after all, an experienced Sequence 7 Beyonder.
Eisinger wiped the cold sweat from his face and neck with a handkerchief, and quickly calmed himself down using his extraordinary abilities.
Once the panic subsides, intelligence will regain its dominance.
Reading is a way to improve memory, comprehension, observation, and logical thinking skills.
"Aleister," if he remembered correctly, he had indeed heard this name from several noblewomen and aristocratic ladies, and even some male nobles.
When Eisinger was carrying out his commission, it was inevitable that he would hear all sorts of miscellaneous news.
He quickly recalled those fragmented pieces of information in his mind.
He quickly pieced together the fragmented descriptions of others to form his general impression of "Aleister".
Aleister Mathers, who describes himself as a linguist, historian, and archaeologist, had been working as a researcher around the world before recently arriving in Backlund and intending to settle there.
Indeed, he did demonstrate considerable knowledge in these areas, and it is said that he was even invited by some professors to work at Backlund University.
But aside from that, they mentioned Aleister's appearance more often than Asnia's butler's insightful views on securities trading.
Yes, the name "Aleister" is always associated with descriptions like "impressive exoticism," "black hair like night, deep eyes," and "an indescribable allure" in Backlund circles.
Humans have a natural curiosity.
As an Easterner, An Ruowang's handsome appearance was quite novel to the Backlund community compared to Westerners.
However, at the time, Isengard regarded it as just another fleeting aesthetic curiosity and fashion trend among the upper class and did not delve into it further.
After all, Backlund is never short of fresh topics, just like how all sorts of popular memes go viral online every year, only to quickly fall out of favor after a few months.
Now, upon closer reflection, considering Isengard's extensive knowledge accumulated through his studies in Reynoldsburg and his long-term reading, perhaps this Mr. Aleister had some elven blood.
He had read about elves in several books, and the descriptions of Aleister's appearance bore some resemblance to the characteristics of elves.
Thinking of this, Isengard breathed a sigh of relief and felt completely at ease.
At the very least, the possibility that "Aleister is a member of the Church of Storms" can be ruled out.
As for those seeking revenge, that's even more impossible.
Eisinger believes that he had never had any dealings with Aleister before today.
Furthermore, considering what the butler said—that his client had a keen eye for securities trading…
This Mr. Aleister is clearly more than just a handsome face.
To be able to quickly gain a reputation in the securities trading field, which requires a sharp mind and substantial capital, in an unfamiliar circle where one's appearance is vastly different from one's own...
Even becoming "somewhat famous" is by no means an easy task.
This means that he either possesses amazing talent and luck, or he has unknown resources or means behind him.
However, Isengard prefers to believe, or rather, to make a bold conjecture, that, given the above conditions, the other party must be an extraordinary person skilled in divination.
Moreover, he is an extraordinary person who knows when to stop and how to conceal his abilities.
This means that the other party is a smart person.
As a believer in the god of knowledge and wisdom, Isengard enjoyed communicating with intelligent people.
