I Became the Handyman That the Heroines Are Obsessed With

Episode 26 – Is this situation getting too big? (1)

Hippotus, the mayor of Arcanium, a city created to help run the Glesius Academy, was in a cold sweat.

This was because he knew very well who the old man sitting across from him was.

This old man, with his white hair and long beard, could be said to have the appearance of a common old man walking around on the streets.

But even though his appearance was shabby, Hippotus, facing this old man, was personally feeling the terrifying intangible pressure in front of him.

“Mayor Hippotos. “I heard an interesting rumor these days.”

When the man in front of Mayor Hippotos, Bergen Steiler, said an interesting rumor, another drop of cold sweat rolled down Mayor Hippotos’ face.

He knew very well what kind of man Bergen Steiler was.

An interesting rumor came out of the mouth of the imperial chancellor?

This means that he or one of the civil servants under him offended Bergen while handling work.

Who is Bergen Steiler?

Gelebrio: A universal being trusted by the emperor, the absolute power of the Empire.

A person who has risen to the position of prime minister who can oversee all civil servants in the empire and has never once broken the law.

That is why he is someone who will never be fired from his position as Prime Minister even if someone files a complaint.

He could be said to be the second in command of the empire, ruling this empire along with the emperor.

But there is someone who goes against his will?

Hippotus did not know who the poor man was, but he would rather have committed murder and gone to prison than be punished by Bergen.

The image that Bergen Staylor had in the civil service community was that of a ‘reaper’ itself.

“I don’t know who dared to offend the elder, but if you give me time, I will thoroughly…….”

“Ah, ah. That’s it. “I’m not telling you to find out who the interesting rumor is.”

When Hippotus learned that he had not visited the city hall to find the party, he became even more nervous.

If he had been told to find him and bring him back, he would have run straight to his feet and brought him back, but telling him not to find him like that was actually adding to Hypotos’ anxiety.

“Recently, a store opened near the downtown area that was so interesting that it caught my interest. “Is the name probably Pathos Repair Shop?”

“Yes, that’s right. Prime Minister. “He says he can fix anything, but regardless of whether it’s true or not, he’s a person who causes confusion in the surrounding commercial area.”

Hippotus thought that the person who had offended the Prime Minister was a man named Pathos, who ran a repair shop.

If he had not done anything wrong, it was because the Prime Minister could not have said that his store was an interesting store.

“By any chance, is he the one who offended the Prime Minister?”

“hehehehe. “I guess you still don’t understand what I meant when I said that.”

Bergen said while slightly furrowing his eyebrows at Mayor Hippotos’ words.

Then Hippotos got down from the chair and fell flat in front of Bergen.

“Sorry! Prime Minister. “I was not confident enough, so I dared to misunderstand the old man’s words.”

“That’s it. “Get up.”

Bergen looked at Hippotos as if he had seen something he could not see.

“Did you know what was happening at that repair shop?”

“I don’t know the details, but I understand that the store was accused of violating the law and a correction order was issued.”

“It’s against the law… ….”

Bergen frowned and expressed his dissatisfaction when the word illegal came out of Hippotos’ mouth.

When Bergen complained about the violations, Hippotos felt his experience working in the city as mayor for the past 10 years sound an alarm.

He immediately realized what Bergen had come here to say.

Bergen’s dissatisfaction with the illegality meant that the act that formed the basis of the correction order made two days ago was not illegal.

“I understand very well what the Prime Minister wants to say. “I will immediately send someone to investigate in detail.”

But Hippotus also had some doubts about Bergen’s words. What is it that makes what happened at the repair shop not illegal?

Does this man named Pathos have any secrets? To that Eastern Continent person?

Hephotos tried his best to rack his brain, but this was it! There was no answer.

“Giggles. “If I could give you one piece of advice, it would be that the owner of the repair shop is an ‘ability user.'”

When Bergen couldn’t find the answer even after Hypotos racked his brain, he gave him some hinted advice.

“Are you talking about ability users?”

“Okay. He is also a very ‘rare’ ability user. “Is this enough?”

“No! Thank you so much, Prime Minister! “We will take action right away.”

Only then did Hippotos realize why Bergen was dissatisfied with the statement that it was illegal.

Regardless of their origins, ability users are basically treated as if they were ‘nobles’.

In other words, although the man named Pathos is not from the Gelevrio Empire, he is a person who should be treated as a nobleman.

However, the illegal acts applied to him only apply when viewed from the standard of a ‘commoner’.

So, pathos means that one has never committed an illegal act.

In addition, Hippotus first heard the word ‘rare’ from Bergen’s mouth.

The man named Bergen is someone who rarely uses unnecessary modifiers.

So, anyone who knew anything about Bergen could easily have noticed that Bergen was paying attention to a man named Pathos, the owner of Pathos Repair Shop.

Because Bergen has ruled the empire as prime minister for a long time, he is a person who has access to and knows more information than anyone else.

If the word “Rare” Came out of his mouth, it was not impossible that a man named Pathos had a ‘one and only’ ability in this world.

That’s why Hippotos had to move faster than ever.

What if he procrastinates and his man, Pathos, leaves the Gelevrio Empire and goes somewhere else?

At that time, he had to be prepared to have his head blown off.

‘Please, please I hope it’s not too late!’

Hippotus could only hope that Pathos was not hurt in any way.

◈◇◈◇◈◇◈◇◈◇◈

Bergens Taylor was lost in his thoughts as he left his city hall and returned to his mansion.

‘By the way, it’s an interesting ability. It’s the ability to fix everything…….’

Bergen was in the position of Prime Minister, so he knew in detail what kind of person Pathos was.

He is believed to be from the Eastern Continent and has the ability to fix everything.

Really shockingly, she is not punished even if she calls the name of the ‘Great Goddess’ in vain.

This alone has already made the man named Pathos of enormous value to Bergen.

The ability to fix everything is an ability that has never been discovered from the moment history was first recorded until now.

A power that has never been discovered, from the most chaotic times to the most peaceful.

‘How great an ordeal and confusion will come to this land?’

Bergen was the Prime Minister of the Gelevrio Empire, so he was one of the people who knew the history of the past in detail.

In the history that deals with stories of the past, in times when many users of abilities appeared, there were always great calamities and catastrophes.

‘It was written that 300 years ago, at a time when 150 ability users appeared in one year, a crazy ancient dragon appeared and one-tenth of the world’s population died.’

But even when the mad ancient dragon appeared, abilities like pathos never appeared.

‘Even 500 years ago, when the Demon King who conquered the Demon World appeared and ushered in the Dark Age, this ability had never been shown.’

His ability was one that did not appear even in the Dark Ages, the worst era in human history.

‘In addition, this time, in addition to the original 100 ability users, as many as 200 new ability users appeared.’

It has never occurred in previous history that at least 300 users of abilities are active at the same time.

‘300 Ability users, and an ability user that has never been discovered or recorded before.’

In addition to that.

‘A being who does not receive any punishment even if he calls the name of the Great Goddess in vain.’

The more I went to Bergen, the more curious I became about the man named Pathos.

“Yes? I beg your pardon? “Can we hand out bread again?”

And the person concerned was greatly embarrassed by the corrective order that had changed in just a few days.
