When we arrived at the Frontier Master's Mansion, the maid who was waiting for us at the entrance led us to the reception hall where Lloyds were waiting.
When I entered the reception room about the maid who was leading me, I saw Captain Myth, Alliance Master Arnold, Receptionist Rebecca, and somehow Roland, the barber, discussing something with Lloyd.
"Oh, you're finally here. I can't wait, now sit down. It's going to be a long story."
Lloyd, who noticed us, was prompted to sit on the chair that was installed in the docking room and sat down on the chair that had been provided for the time being.
"So, what is the reward from Uncle Border? It's also a big deal."
"Well... we may have gotten some information about the person you're looking for."
Finn's info!?
I knew you were in this yug hanots!?
I was in a hurry to get on with the words brought to me by Border Bluyd.
"Looking for information!
"Oh, you were looking for a swordsman named Finn with black hair?
"Ah, yes. That's right!"
Lloyd looked at me and looked happy.
"Well, then, the information I got is definitely correct." Saint Alphine the Sword "
I was stiff to the words Lloyd uttered.
I found out who I am...
Why... have you changed your name, gender and appearance?
"Hmm, what are you talking about? This is my brother Al. It has nothing to do with Kensei Alphine."
Mayla pulled my clothes and forced me to sit on the chair.
And he was answering Border Bluyd's question instead of me, who was too stiff to answer.
"Don't worry. Me and Alphine share a common enemy. Besides, I have a general idea why I'm hiding. Maise, please report to Al and the others."
Lloyd sat me down to talk to Maira, who was trying to protect me, and he called the miss who was standing by.
When the called miss stood up from the chair, she began to read out the bundle of paper she was holding.
"Lloyd ordered me to search for Finn and investigate Al's identity, so I used various handlers from the Border Clan to gather information. The Swordsman Finn whom Al is looking for is known to be a platinum-grade adventurer who was his companion when Kensei Alphine was active as an adventurer. Are you sure about this?
I was exposed to a gaze like a confirmation of Myth.
"Yes, yes. There is no doubt that Finn and Alphine were combining as adventurers. But I'm not Kensei Alphine."
"Hey, hey, Al!?
Maira tried to stop me from answering Myth's question.
If you keep quiet here, you may not get Fine's information, and there should be no problem if I admit that I'm Alfine.
Because it's our chance to get the information on Finn we're looking for.
I apologized to Mayla with my eyes open.
"I will report on Al's traits later, so I will now report on Finn. The Finn you are looking for was last commissioned as an adventurer in King's Landing a few months ago. At that time, the adventurers we worked with were other platinum-grade adventurers, not Alphine. As an adventurer, he was also one of the best talented players in the King's City Guild, but there are reports that he was undervalued in the shadow of Lord Alphine's activities. And I gathered rumors that Lord Finn had disappeared from King's Landing and was missing."
Indeed, as Myth reported, I think Finn's strength was one of the best adventurers in King's Landing.
However, there were times when I didn't properly evaluate Finn, and many people looked down on him as my accessory.
"I've been consulted by Master Myth, and I've queried the Masters of the Adventurer Alliance in each city for information about the Platinum-Grade Finn, but I can't find any footprints on the request under that name."
Arnold, the Alliance Master, was prompted by Myth to report the information he had examined to us.
"In other words, Arnold's report suggests that Finn has abandoned his status as a platinum-grade adventurer and is hiding. Or you can't just sign up as an adventurer and live as someone else."
The possibility offered by Myth was that Finn, who had lived all his life as an adventurer, might choose.
As someone else....
I see... just like me, I have abandoned my identity, status, and appearance...
It may be possible.
Perhaps you passed each other in these yug hanots.
At that time, the face of a bright red hair and eyes of a young adventurer who passed by at the entrance of the Yughhanots Adventurers Guild came to my mind.
Why does an adventurer named Flick come to mind?
Even though it looks nothing like Fine...
I shook the face of the red-haired adventurer out of my head, and I turned to Myth, who kept reporting.
"I'm Finn, who has lost track of his footprints, but when I gathered information about this young black-haired swordsman adventurer in Yughhanots, interesting information caught my eye. Lorraine, I need a report."
Roland, the barber who had been summoned here, sent a message of apology in front of me.
Maybe the story of me being Kensei Alphine leaked from him.
My mouth seems strong, but I can't help but keep quiet when the other party becomes lord...
But I don't think you're going to fool Lorraine because he's not telling us exactly who we are.
"Al, I'm sorry. I'm actually a frontier detective. I'm gathering and reporting information about some weird guys who are sneaking into Yughhanots while doing barbershop. I didn't think Al would do any harm to the Border Guards in particular. If possible, I want you to keep your mouth shut about my identity. Instead of giving Al the information he needs."
Lorraine, who told me that he was a detective in the Borderland family, offered me two sketches.
The first sketch I was presented was a sketch of a young adventurer named Frick the Magic Swordsman in Crimson, which I had just come up with.
"What is this?
"Two weeks after Lord Finn disappeared in King's Landing, this is a sketch of a young black-haired swordsman adventurer who used our shop in Yughhanots."
"Two weeks after Finn disappeared....."
"It takes about two weeks for this yughanats to take a carriage from King's Landing. And black-eyed hair is unusual. His age is close to that of Lord Finn. Check out another sketch."
Lorraine prompted me to turn Flick's sketch, and the moment I saw another sketch hidden beneath, I couldn't make a sound.
The sketch was very similar to Finn, whose forehair was long and his eyes were hidden, and his confident face was very similar to that of other women.
This is fin!? Finn, right?
"It was the face of a man before he became the Crimson Magic Swordsman Flick. Is Lord Al who you're looking for?
I couldn't speak, and all I could do was nod in silence.
"Well, I'll double-check, but is there a tattoo of a little wheat hoe at the base of the neck on the Finn I'm looking for?
Even the tattoos that the director and his wife put in the orphanage to fight the plague!?
I'm sure it's Finn.
Definitely, maybe the red Magus Swordsman Flick is Finn.
I was nodding loudly for confirmation from Roland.
Then Rebecca, who was listening quietly, suddenly stood up and presented a piece of paper with an address.
"Mr. Al, do you recognize the address of this village and the name of the orphanage?
The address written on Rebecca's paper bears the name of the orphanage I grew up in and the name of the village.
"Yes, but what is this?
"This is the address where Frick sent the money anonymously. It seems to be an orphanage, but you said you didn't want to give me a name, so I was hooked."
Rebecca also presented new information about the overlap between Flick and Finn.
Finn and Flick are overlapping inside me.
But Fine has magical talents...
No, I didn't.
Unlike me, Finn had an incredible magical talent...
Finn and Flick completely overlapped in me.
I intercepted Fine at that time...
I wonder why I didn't notice...
I've lived with you all my life and I'm familiar with it.
I was in fact quite shocked by the fact that I missed the person who was closest to me, even though I changed my appearance and changed my name.
