Chapter 747: The Dungeon Boss

After giving it a thought… Edmund was certain that Merlin had some sort of huge background or belonged to some house with high standing in society. 

Otherwise, why would Legolas Ragnarsson, the ironborn elf leader of the strongest and most popular mercenary guild who had numbers of people lined up to hire them, would personally come and recommend this teenager to be his disciple? 

On the accords of appearance, Merlin was a human and didn't even have the insignia of the Misthios guild on his clothes. Also, his clothing was that of someone from a noble background. 

[Who is he?] asked Edmund to Legolas using a telepathic communication artifact. 

[Although I cannot tell you his true identity… just know that he's the son of an Exalted Noble. 

They made me a promise to become a long-term client of your company if you let their son learn from you. And trust me… the number of profits would be huge.] responded Legolas.
