Finally, Scar had a different reaction.
Instead of bursting out in laughter again, he gave a sigh and said, "It turned out that he lacked self awareness and common sense. I was wondering why he was acting this way, but it turned out that he was just an idiot in common sense…"
I couldn't help feeling a bit insulted when I heard this, so I said, "Hey, you know I can hear you, right?"
Scar looked at me and just gave another sigh like he was done with me.
But I didn't feel like I had done anything wrong. After all, I was just doing my job as part of Shadow Garden, I wasn't doing anything that would be considered special.
So why did he say that I lacked common sense?
Seeing the expression on my face, Scar put his head in his hand and shook his head as he said, "Look at him, he doesn't even understand what's wrong with him. I really am speechless…"
The more that he said this, the more insulted that I felt, so I said, "Can you at least explain why you think that I lack common sense?"
Scar looked at me with serious eyes and asked, "Have you heard about how many times demons have been found in the history of our organization?"
I tilted my head to think before suddenly remembering something. I slowly said, "Wasn't it two? I remember Shaka telling me this…"
Scar gave a nod before saying, "That's right, two…and that's in the entire history of our organization."
Seeing that I was still confused, Scar then clapped his hands in front of me so that I was forced to focus before saying, "That's two in the entire history of our organization which has lasted for countless years and in just a few months, you've encountered demons four different times. That's double what we had encountered in all of our time as the largest information organization in this kingdom."
I was slowly starting to understand what he was saying and realizing that my values were indeed a bit twisted.
After all, I was still thinking of this world as a game world.
Events like this were normal in the game world and would come at random intervals, that was how the creators of the game kept the game interesting.
But if it was from the viewpoint of a citizen in this world where these events didn't happen daily and were rare occurrences, it would seem strange that I was encountering all of these demons.
Even in Bright Water City, the demon had been able to avoid detection for so long for a reason.
If it wasn't for me stirring up the hornet nest, what had happened in Bright Water City wouldn't have happened. Though it most likely would have resulted in the city being taken over by the demons with the undead army…
No, that wouldn't have happened since I didn't remember such an event from the game.
So where did the demon and the undead go in the game if they didn't bring down Bright Water City?
Did someone take care of them before they could develop further or was there something else that happened to them?
The more I thought about it, the more that I fell into this tangent.
In the end, it was Scar who brought me back by clapping in front of my face again to snap me out of my thoughts.
He looked at me with a worried look and asked, "Are you alright?"
I realized my mistake and quickly said, "I'm fine, I was just lost in my thoughts."
Scar gave a sigh as he said, "You, it's always one thing or another with you. I really don't even know what to say anymore."
I just gave a nod and said, "I admit that I'm a bit special compared to everyone else, but I'm sure that others could do the same if they had the same opportunities."
"Huh?" Both Shaka and Scar reacted the same way when they heard this before looking at me with looks of disbelief.
I didn't back down as I just looked back at them with a calm look on my face.
Then both of them gave sighs before putting their heads in their hands.
"Broken, his common sense is completely broken…I knew that I shouldn't have expected better from this kid…"
My lips twitched when I heard this, but I didn't argue with them since I knew that I wouldn't be able to convince them.
It was just too bad that Scar wasn't about to let it end here since he had some grievances with me…
Scar suddenly looked up and pointed at my face as he said, "That's right, what is up with the elves as well? You go on a trip and all of a sudden, you're friends with elves? Do you know how much of a stir that has caused?"
"Huh? Why does becoming friends with the elves cause a stir?" I asked in a confused voice.
Scar looked at me like I was ignorant as he said, "Do you know how long the elves have been ignoring us? Not just years, but centuries! Since the founding of this country, the elves have been here and they've ignored us all this time!"
"Oh." That was all that I had to say in response to this.
"Oh? Oh? Is that really all you have to say?" Scar pointed in my face once more, but I really didn't have anything else to say to that.
After all, as long as people were willing to put the work in, they would be able to befriend elves. I didn't think it was that strange to be able to befriend elves.
Scar just shook his head again as he said, "You've somehow managed to open up relations with the elves, that is something that is very important to our country. So you could even say that you've become a very important person to our country for those that know about this."
"What?" I said in a shocked voice
I clearly did not expect him to say this.
