The next day after waking up Elena went straight to the margrave's mansion to inquire about what happened finally. She was relieved to know that the margrave's men didn't mess up anything and were able to catch all the masterminds successfully.
Two other men were standing behind the margrave when he was meeting with Elena. One of them was the large middle aged man who went to capture Renov. Another one was a skinny man with sunken eyes and a very creepy smile.
Theodor introduced them to Elena -
"This large man right here is my head of security, Adams. He is in charge of managing the security of the mansion.
And this man here is the head of the secret force, Lane. He had a very special skill that let him change his appearance almost perfectly."
The large man, Adam next spoke up -
"Nice to meet you, miss Elena. I'm very grateful for your kind assistance this time. The Count Batista had also asked me to thank you on his behalf for stopping his son from commuting such crimes. He also invited you for dinner, if you don't mind."
"I don't mind at all. I will surely visit the count if I have some time."
Next the shady looking man spoke up -
"Ehehe, I'm Lane, the head of the secret division. We were once told to collect any and all information about you, from your birth to your current self but we were able to find nothing. From that time I knew you were someone amazing. I'm in awe of you as I can't even imitate your beauty. This is my first time something like this happened. Ehehehe."
Seeing him smiling creepily like that, Elena thought - "This guy is super creepy. Even tho he is not a bad person, oh actually he is a very good person but he is still creepy. He thinks that I'm special as he can't imitate me and also somewhat looks up to me so let's just give him a serious answer. That is the way to deal with guys like him."
"The reason why you can't imitate my appearance is because I have a skill that will prevent you from doing that. But this skill is not really something rare or special. Most of the high level individuals have one or two such skills. If your level becomes higher than me or if your stats become higher than me then you will be able to take my appearance too. You can just take it as a challenge and improve yourself then probably someday you will be able to take my appearance if you become not much weaker than me. And it's not only me that you can't imitate, you also can't imitate the gods, can you?"
"But actually, this skill of his is quite exceptional. He got this skill due to the system that Noier created but this one has to be one of the rarest ones that one can get from birth.
Allowing him to not only imitate looks but also vive and voice. But that is not the best part of this skill as it also allows the user to read and surface though of the person he is trying to fool by using the imitation and that makes it possible for it to imitate someone nearly with perfection.
Its name {Proper Doppelganger} does suit it quite a bit. " - Elena thought.
Lane after listening to her somehow became even more fanatical believer of Elena, which again creeped her out a bit. Then she bid goodbye and went out of the margrave's mansion.
...
After coming out of the mansion Elena was going toward the adventurer guild and was thinking what to do next. Then suddenly she heard someone calling her name. Turning around she saw a boy of about 16 running toward her while calling her. She knew that boy. He was an apprentice working in the merchant's guild.
As Elena stopped the boy soon reached her. She asked him why he was calling out to her and as an answer he said that the guild master of the merchant's guild wanted to discuss something with Elena so if she had a free time she was requested to visit the merchant's guild.
Elena didn't have anything special to do for now. So she thought that going to the merchant guild this time should be fine. So she asked the boy if the current time was fine. He nodded his head happily and led the way. Elena smiled, seeing the boy acting all grown up and patted his head and then followed him.
Inside the guild master's room Elena was having a meeting with the Merchant Guild Master. She was an Old lady. She looked like she was in her 60s but her looks were still mentioned properly. Her name was Monika.
The Guild Master's room in the merchant's guild was way more sophisticated than the room of the adventurer's guild master's room. There was expensive looking furniture and painting in that room and the decorations also looked very expensive but the person who had decorated the room had a good taste as the room didn't look gaudy. Elena was kinda impressed.
The request Monika made to Elena was to guard a merchant caravan that will go to the capital. According to her information, this was not a normal caravan of merchant but a special one that was going to take some important goods to the capital's merchant guild from Rin's.
So the caravan was just responsible for delivery and the important goods didn't belong to them. She also said that not one but three chambers of commerce would take this delivery mission. Elena was also acquainted with them as they were the part of the group that tried to win over Elena.
They had their own team of guards for the security but the route they had to take to maintain secrecy went through the Wicked Forest of Ull. The A rank parties are busy right now and contacting them for this mission would also be a hindrance to the secrecy.
That was why they wanted Elena who was a single individual with insanely high combat strength. That would help them to maintain the secrecy while still having enough combat strength to face the Wicked Forest of Ull.
Elena started thinking. She had been to this city for quite some time even tho it was not long. She had fulfilled all her objectives that she had while entering this city like the registration to the adventurer guild and collecting information etc. She also made some friends in the city and had also bought houses here. She didn't have much more to do here than to just live her daily life now. So she thought it was high time for her to move out from this city and visit a new place.
When she entered this world she wanted to visit a lot of new and exciting places of this world so staying silently at Rin was not something Elena wanted to do.
So she thought as her next destination the capital of this kingdom looked like a good option. But if she was leaving she couldn't just leave without alerting someone so she asked -
"When will the caravan leave?"
"That will be in a week's time."
Elena thought this was enough time for her to say goodbye to her acquaintances and to settle other matters. So she replied -
"Okay then. I will accept your request. Please let this request go through the adventurer guild. When I will accept it from there then I will ask for further details. Is that fine?"
"Yes, it is very much fine. Thank you very much for accepting the request."
