Chapter 1206: Chapter 407: Recruitment (Part 2)

However, before Rein could think of what to say, Lagaray continued: "At that time, I thought if I died during the trial, you wouldn’t be lonely, Anna would be with you."

Lagaray’s words left Rein stunned.

This was a completely unexpected answer for him.

’She died, and Anna would accompany him,’ what did this mean?

It indicated that Lagaray always saw herself as the third party. Even though she had feelings for him, in the barbarian’s simple values, she certainly thought she shouldn’t interfere between him and Anna.

That intimate encounter was more about gratitude, and after leaving, Lagaray probably never considered coming back.

This was the first time Rein realized that perhaps he had never deeply understood the inner world of the barbarian girl in front of him.

Yes, ever since he crossed over, relying on the system, his strength had been increasing almost daily, and now it had reached an unimaginable level.

With growing power, authority, and wealth, he had neglected the emotions of the people around him, even those beside him.

They were all living people, with their own joys and sorrows, thoughts, and beliefs.

"Today, this Miss Cleya seems to have a... special relationship with you."

"Also... Anna probably doesn’t know about her, right?"

Lagaray said two more sentences in a row, but Rein naturally understood what she meant.

"And what about you?" Rein did not answer Lagaray’s question but instead replied with a question.

"Me?" Lagaray was clearly a little surprised by Rein’s words.

"I don’t know. I originally thought you only had Anna, I..." Lagaray shook her head and said.

...

Meanwhile.

In the Imperial City Tamriel, Second Ring, inside a study of a noble’s mansion.

Two middle-aged nobles were discussing something.

If Rein were present, he would surely recognize at a glance that the middle-aged noble sitting in front of the large desk was none other than Viscount Hamadi from Meist.

At the same time, he would naturally wonder why the other party had come to the Imperial City.

"Hamadi, do you know the reason why you were transferred from Meist to the Fourth Ring Trade District of the Imperial City as the sheriff?" The noble with slicked-back hair behind the desk asked with a slight smile.

"Uh... I don’t know." Hamadi was somewhat nervous in the face of Marquis Roys.

Not because the other noble’s rank in the Dragan Empire was two levels higher, but because the other was a high-ranking official of the Federation in the Empire.

This Marquis Roys was responsible for the intelligence network work of multiple provinces in the Empire, including Mingster Province.

In other words, he was the superior of his superior.

He received a secret order the day before yesterday, had just been transferred to the Imperial City today, and after reporting to the Imperial City’s Public Security Hall, he came here in the evening, with no time to understand or familiarize himself.

"You’re familiar with Rein, right?" The other party mentioned a name.

"Rein? If you mean that Sword Bearer Rein from Meist, yes, I’m familiar." An image of a young man flashed through Hamadi’s mind.

In an instant, it was as if the fog in Hamadi’s mind had cleared, and he understood why he was transferred to the Imperial City.

About two months ago, he received news that Rein seemed to have been transferred to the Imperial Swordsmen Headquarters.

Could it be that the other party did something special?

"Here are some things the other party has recently done in the Imperial City, take a look, and we’ll talk after." Marquis Roys pointed to a stack of intelligence on the desk.

Hamadi nodded and immediately began to flip through it quickly.

But just after reading one page, waves of shock surged in Hamadi’s heart!

These achievements...!

If he remembered correctly, Rein came to the Imperial City just two months ago!

And Marquis Roys was not in a hurry, instead, he stood up and poured a cup of tea for himself and Hamadi.

Half an hour later.

Hamadi’s expression was apparently a bit dazed.

If he hadn’t turned back to the first page and confirmed it clearly stated Rein Carlan, from Meist Flashgold Town...

He really wouldn’t have associated the Rein described in this intelligence with the Rein he knew.

Because the achievements listed were simply... too exaggerated.

They weren’t things a twenty-year-old young man should be capable of, even for a top-tier Legendary Strongman of the Empire, the achievements were too dazzling.

"Lord Roys, is there anything you need me to do?" Hamadi calmed down his shock and asked.

"The potential evaluation of the other party has already jumped from seventeenth to third in the Federation’s talent recruitment sequence." Roys smiled slightly and said.

"What?!" Hamadi’s eyes widened in a low exclamation.

Although he didn’t know the specific talent recruitment list, especially the top one hundred which was confidential, as the person responsible for the specific work, he naturally understood the evaluation criteria for talent.

To make a horizontal comparison.

The Governor Elliott Earl of Rosby County next to Meist did not even make the top one hundred list.

In other words, he wasn’t even on that top hundred list.

Keep in mind, this was a governor of an important coastal county town.

And Rein... was ranked third!

The value was self-evident.

"Not only is the other party’s potential significant, but their current strength has already reached a level that requires extreme attention. Additionally, he holds another identity, as an official member of the Bixiu Mechanization School’s Metal Series."

Before Hamadi could ask, Roys took the initiative to explain.
