* Alfine Perspective

We were called to the mansion of Borderline Belloyd, and we were put through to the reception room.

"I'm sorry I called you in. There's a lot of trouble going on here."

Fatigue appeared in the face of Lloyd sitting in the chair or Mice standing beside him, and it could be perceived that the trouble they said was quite daunting.

"No, thanks for everything."

"I'd appreciate it if you could say that. I called the Al's today to ask for a favor."

"Is that a request? To us?

"Oh, I don't think there's much we can do about it if we send someone who knows what's going on. Few people know the details of Abyss Fall because they lay a warrant in all the places concerned. I'm not going to explain."

With that said, there were only two people in front of me who knew more about the facility than we did.

The adventurers and knighthood members who were participating had strict information control, and only a limited number of people knew the details.

"So you're asking us to... But we're just adventurers, aren't we?

"That's better. A single adventurer will loosen their guard."

"What do you expect to loosen your guard?

"Actually, there are a bunch of Kingsguard Knights hiding their identities in this Yuguhanotes. My ministers are reporting that someone like that is wandering around and sniffing around."

The Kingsguard Knights...

I wonder if that's about the guys I've been looking for...

They were probably gathering information about us escaping from the Wang capital.

Borderline Belloyd seemed to mistake the Kingsguard knights infiltrating Yuguhanotes looking for me for information on whether Gile was known to exist at the facility.

I was wondering if I should reveal my identity to Borderline Belloyd.

But if he finds out that Sword Saint Alfine is here right now in Yughanotes, Fern, who could still be in this city, could hide himself again.

I had myself reluctant to reveal my identity when I thought so.

"Uh. That was what was happening, wasn't it? I had no idea."

The words of the right gavel made me shine.

I am driven by self-loathing that I am a truly cowardly woman by the words that came out of my gut.

You should know that these self-centered thoughts and actions are what caused Finn to leave his former self, because I couldn't help but seem to be a cowardly woman to really spit on, still unrepentant about it.

"I hear they're hiding the search. They're looking for a young brunette from Wangdu for everything. Anyway, it would be an excuse to collect information."

"I'm sure you are. So what is Al's request to me? If you don't do your job, Maribel can take care of you, so I'm willing to take any kind of request."

Meira, who sensed the story was going to flow in a bad direction, drove me back to the requester.

"Oh, I did. That was a favor. Actually, I'd like you to meet my daughter Noelia, who's on the road, and tell me more about the underground facility in Avisfall."

"Are you a lady of Uncle Borderline?

Rumor has it that Noelia, the only daughter of Uncle Borderline, is a young lady but an adventurer and even a severe magical geek.

I wonder what it means to tell such a child about the underground facility.

"Oh, now you're in the village of Devon in Imbahanes with my secret destiny, along with Flick, a crimson demon swordsman, an amazing adventurer. But Maribel was born in the village of Devon, right?

"Ah, yes. Yes, sir."

"You know there's a crystal mine nearby?

"It's a Rahaman mine. Because my fathers worked there. Maribel helped you with the mine."

"Then the story was connected. The guys at the Rahaman mine are supposedly the same ones who were repairing Abyssfall's underground facility."

The story seemed to be connected among the Borderline Belloids, but I just couldn't understand what it was about.

"In fact, Master Noelia has contacted me that the people sitting in the Rahaman mine are connected to Lord Gyre, and that they are using Abyss Walker... and that the beasts who worked in the mine are missing..."

As I looked strange, Mice, who noticed the look, gave me a supplementary explanation.

"I see, if the Maribels who worked at the Rahaman mine were to have come to the Abyssfall underground facility -"

Finally, the conversation got through to me.

"I wonder if that means Gile, the Kingsguard Knights leader, is moving behind all sorts of things. Something happened in Al's king's capital."

"That's what I stare at. But the opponent is one of the greatest nobles in the kingdom. If you don't consolidate the evidence firmly, they'll say you're missing out. I'm moving like that, too. So, I'm sorry about the Al guys looking for people, but will you do me a favor? If Gil is suspicious of me, it would be too dangerous for him to communicate with me. I want to send someone I can trust."

Borderline Burroids, who briefly publicly declare that they trust a single adventurer, still seemed quite a variant as a nobleman.

If you're a nobleman in the Wang capital, I'll never do anything to give you a word here, in the way I've said it around.

Most aristocrats move adventurers away from their responsibilities.

"Don't you think Mr. Borderline will bring that information to the Kingsguard Knights Commander?

"I am proud that I only have eyes to see people. Wouldn't your lord be able to do such clever art?

"Ahhh."

Words jammed in Uncle Borderline's response.

Maybe, when I saw Gile's face in the current situation, I was confident I'd pull out my sword and jump my neck fast.

Originally he hated it, but now he knew he was even more involved in the dark, changing his perception from the one he hated to the evil to defeat.

"If it's that reaction, Al won't sell me. Therefore, I want you to take this request. Things need to be quick."

Borderline Belloyd had a voice similar to the plea and bowed his head to us to take the request.

"... ok. We will accept your request."

"Oh well! Now, do me a favor immediately."

As soon as I decided to take the request, I decided to get ready to leave and take Meira and Maribel to the village of Devon, south of Imbahanes.
