Regressor Instruction Manual (PART 1)

Chapter 128: Trap Card Invoked (1)

I was not particularly interested. I had a plan to put into action, and making my debut into the social world wasn't part of it. However, it would be quite beneficial.

Just do what you have to do.'

Being a new figure always earned attention, especially one known as the lover of the Mercenary Queen, and the hot topic of this meeting. Simply put, this gave me an advantageous position.

With that simple announcement, all eyes had gone to me.

There wasn't such a daring person who would go so far as to mess with me, someone who was currently being protected by Victor Hart.

I could see a luxurious interior as the door opened for us. Tables were arranged on one side, with uniform-clad servants walking around carrying trays filled with light desserts or wine. Asians with dark hair talking over in one corner stood out.

Of course, the most eye-catching among them were the imperial ladies with colorful hair.

Just by looking at the clothes, I could tell the fabric was luxurious, and the accessories they were wearing were difficult to measure in terms of value.

'Imperial nobility:

Those wearing the clothes of the priests of the Holy Empire were also noticeable. Perhaps they belonged to the Pope's side. What was confusing about them were the clothes and ornaments they wore, all looking highly expensive.

It seemed that their religion did not have integrity included in their motto.

Before I could take another step, I saw Cha Hee-ra reaching out to me, an expression of guilt on her face.

"Hold it, honey."

Even in the Holy Empire, it was common for men to escort women, yet Cha Hee-ra took my hand and started to lead me in a provoking manner.

Although my arm hurt from the magic flowing to me, I kept my mouth shut tight and moved on.

'It fucking hurts. Fuck...

The Mercenary Queen's gaze showed that she didn't care about what people thought of us as we walked. I didn't know how this would look to the people, a man being escorted by a strong woman, but...

'It works.

This was helpful for my image.

"She is..."

"The rumor that the Mercenary Queen fell in love is true. Is this her first time?"

"He looks a little different from what I thought. I thought he would look a bit rougher..."

"It looks like he is a capable alchemist. He must be the academic type."

"It's a face that I can't think of hurting anyone. And he's cute..."

"Ah, I felt it too. Doesn't it make you want to protect him?"

"Right. It makes you think exactly that."

"The Mercenary Queen's taste is great. At first glance, he looks ordinary, but you can see some peculiar aura around him..."

"Yes. Yes, I felt that too."

The women talking to each other had their mouths covered with the fans they held, but I could still hear everything.

'What are those ladies talking about?'

I wasn't sure, exactly, but it felt like I had become a hit with the noble ladies.

Of course, this meant that the other men were looking at me in disgust. It hurt my pride slightly, but it wasn't too bad being known as the idiot following the Mercenary Queen.
