"Well... mostly as I explained to Diaz earlier"
Return to the tavern, have a beer in front of the four of you, and Ledo sprinkles the tobacco.
"No, I have no idea. I heard about Cece and Reed's master."
"S-Rank Adventurer... That's what they said"
Cece and Reede nodded silently at Elios' words.
Redo scratched his head feeling for a while and lowered his head.
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hide anything."
"Oh, no! Something happened, didn't it, Master?
"Yes. I was rather convinced. Because it was too accurate to say it to an exadventurer."
I try to get Ledo's head up the way Cece panicked.
"I was an S-rank adventurer...... I didn't tell him because I thought it was strange to name him because he missed the party as soon as he did. Registration is still there, so if you do come from the guild, I'll stay an S-rank adventurer."
"Where was the party!
Don't listen to that.
"Yes......"
Irene narrows her eyes to Redo, who gently slaps the depressed sheath's head with a pound.
"As good as you are S-ranked, what was that request for an abandoned cemetery after all? Who are these people you were fighting for? Is that the Demon Clan?
"Right. Firstly, there had recently been an increase in the mortality, disappearance, of new adventurers in this city. And the stature of a new adventurer was traded at a high price in the back society. Why is that?"
"Because the Demons were involved."
Redo nodded at Reede's words.
"Exactly. For the Demons, adventurers are troublesome. Although, unlike the military, there is no large-scale organized action, individual combat capabilities and experience cannot be ignored. Especially when it's a party of skilled adventurers. If we fight properly, there will be damage. So I'll crush it among the newcomers so those skilled adventurers don't come out in the future"
"Terrible......"
"It makes sense. Well, from me, I think it's a long story, but maybe life expectancy and thought concepts are different in the first place."
Ellios, convinced by the word, opens his mouth.
"Was that detained ex-branch chief in tune with the Demons?
"Oh. That man Henri got money from several followers of the Demon King for gold, and instead loosened the commissioning investigation. That's how he lurked what he called a disguised request into a normal request and indirectly handed over the adventurer who took it to the Demon Clan. They also didn't do much investigating the requested deaths, or missing persons, that should have been done on the Alliance side. I'm sure Diaz will be investigating the area, but it must be the Branch Manager's fault as well. This is how the number of new adventurers quietly decreases with no yew. This city has so many adventurers, it's hard to notice how low it is at first sight."
"One of those requests was that abandoned cemetery undead hunt,"
"It's my mistake. A suspicious request to hunt undead in such a place, I wouldn't have let you take it if I knew... sorry. I'm in danger."
Redo bowed his head again. It's a crisis I invited on my own assumptions.
"No, come on, Mr. Redo. This is a request we originally received. I never thought of that as a fake request. It's unnatural if you do think about it. Why would you ask me to purify such an abandoned cemetery now?"
Ledo, with his head up, continued to explain.
"I noticed that. I followed you guys immediately. I chased him in front of the abandoned cemetery... but Reede, you noticed."
Redo turned his gaze toward Reede. Reede snorted at it.
"Yes, I know someone's been following you, but I didn't know it was Mr. Redo. If Mr. Redo hadn't reacted to Irene's screams, I'm sure he wouldn't have noticed."
In that word, Redo smiles masochistically.
"What I did inadvertently showed signs then. But...... you guys are sweet explorers. Find the key as soon as you can."
"Oh, so you put that key on the table."
"It's me. I deliberately made a noise and put it down because there was a key where you guys missed it."
"I see... if Mr. Redo was our enemy..."
"You could have died. … [The proud warrior's neck is long],"
Sigh brothers and sisters.
"Never mind. If I say this, no one will notice my tail."
"I'm Master Boulder!
"Hmm, I was watching you guys fight Skeleton... well done. That was a good move for each of us. Reede's magic is also the right choice. Easily grant blessings that protect your companions, not from attack magic, and then create a place that you purified as an escape. Good decision. Elios passes as avant-garde, Cece has half the good and half the bad. So, Irene, was it?
Reede and Elios looking praiseworthy and happy, but Cece was a little depressed, and the last remaining Irene replied nervously.
"What?"
"You're jumping through one head. I've never seen a way to shoot witchcraft with a bow... but the amount, power, and range of magic included are great. Furthermore, I saw a chilling move as an avant-garde, but it's definitely a mid-level adventurer class. One-on-one, I might be able to do the trick."
"Well, well! You have eyes! [Only those who know the value of the stone will be rich] That's him!
Irene with a less than full look. Look at that. Reede and Cece smile. Ellios praised Ledo in his heart for having only met him a few times and yet he knew his sister well.
"and well that was good...... that magic earthquake made me guess there was a demon clan"
"That was demonic magic, after all."
"Oh. That's summoning magic. What came out was a demon called [Flaming Ancient Iron Soldier (Fram Eisen)], in terms of danger...... you're in a class C to B"
"Rank b... it was strong indeed"
"Rather, I could have defeated it well. The melee over the lack of fire on the undead habits wraps up the enthusiasm that makes this one disadvantageous. He also has the ability to generate flaming walls and eliminate escapes. If you were a new adventurer, you'd be dead."
Cece remembers, shivering. Sword on that burning body. I could take it down really well.
"I was forced to make two choices. Shall I go help you... beat the demon clan that summoned you first? To be clear, challenging multiple demonic opponents to battle alone is suicidal. But... in the end, I had no choice."
Redo remembers that time.
Two demons before. Clearly demons of character to Cece and the others. There was also a hand to join the sheaths and defeat them quickly. But that hand disappeared when it was inhibited by the wall of flames. I couldn't disarm it, but I didn't think the Demons would overlook it.
"That's why I bet. He said you guys could do it. The Demons decided that if only the warriors were slaughtered first because one was a warrior and one was a magician, the magicians could be defeated by pushing in numbers with you guys. So I took a special attack on my own and quickly defeated only the warriors first..."
I did a lot of tricks, but it turned out the way I wanted. But that just happened to work really well. While Ledo is stunned by his recklessness, he doesn't think he's good enough to defeat the Demon Clan just by safety measures.
"Wouldn't it be nice if we could take it down? I didn't think you'd get caught up in the guild's goth afterwards."
"That's what bothered my head. [Black Blade (Krone)] was found to be moving, so I stepped on the suspicious side of the branch manager and managed to solve the rest with the old connections. Thanks to him, I found him troublesome."
Redo sighed remembering Diaz's face as the captain of the [Black Blade] and became the new branch chief.
To the best of my knowledge, I'm going to set something up that I definitely don't want. I came to this city to get away from that kind of alley. Ledo is foolish in his heart, even though he knows it doesn't make sense.
"But you said you wouldn't get your hands on us or your master, right?
"Don't take it to par, Sheath. I just don't get my hands on it directly..."
"So how do I..."
Ledo smiled at them as Cece and Leede looked dark.
"Don't look so dark! Diaz is not a good person, but unlike Henri, he's basically on the side of the adventurer. If you were an adventurer, you wouldn't have a problem. Come on, we're done talking! You guys! I'll drink! It's a joint request achievement celebration! Eat and drink as much as you like because it's my luxury!
"Phew, it's not a good time for us to be extravagant. I'll show you how to drink Bail!
"Mr. Redo, I need to talk to you before you drink"
"What the hell, Ellios?"
Perfect Ellios stretched his spine and lowered his head.
"Please, I want you to work out Irene and do it. I'm not as talented as Irene, to be clear. I've taught you what you can teach... but I'm not the one Irene needs from here on out - a good teacher. Mr. Redo, I still don't know who you are, but at least as far as Cece and the others are concerned, I think you can be trusted. So why don't you teach him the same thing as Cece and the others?"
"Hey brother! Don't put it that way! Thanks to your brother, you have me now!
Redo smoked as he watched the two panicking Irene and Ellios keep their heads down.
"Hmmm. Disconnect (...) ru (...)"
"Huh! Why, Master!
"Yes!
Cece and Reede catch their eyes and eat to Redo. Redo observes it calmly.
Hmm. The bond is apparently born somewhat.
A sheath with good eyes and excellent attack power, a reed for both sickle and distant use in light magic. To a magician who can do the avant-garde there, a calm shielded avant-garde, huh?
Not bad. Rather good.
"I said no. It's like," I don't mind, just work out Irene. "I don't care. Elios, what do you want to do before?"
That's what Redo said. With that in mind, Elios looked up.
"I... I was born to protect Irene. From a very young age, I was only beaten in to protect Irene. So I..."
"So - what?
In response to Ledo's words, Elios pointed those black eyes straight at Ledo. The eyes were clear and I saw determination.
"I - I want to be strong. I want to be strong enough to keep Irene safe."
"You could have told me. Don't tell me how stubborn Irene alone is. You and Irene will work out together. All right, Cece, Reede. And Irene."
Cece and Reede nodded at Ledo's words. Irene also replied small, yes.
Why are these guys about to cry? I thought Ledo, but I flushed it out okay.
"Once again, you four parties formed here, as the name is to be decided later"
Cece laughed happily and Reede smiled quietly.
Irene looked invincible and Elios nodded with a serious look.
"Well, let's raise a toast - cheers!
In the tavern, the voice of five cheers sounded.
Thus, again, the four men who would later raise their names as Ledo's disciples, were brought together here.
"Captain. What's my assignment in the future?
"Continue gathering information. Additional surveillance, guidance."
"... Yes, sir."
Diaz, sitting at the desk in the branch manager's office, ordered Emilia to do so, one red-haired woman standing in front of her.
Emilia is wearing the perfect black clothes, which are the uniforms of [Black Blade (Krone)], but that white mask was removed, and I could see the floating face of the scabbard. Even if I don't like big breasts, they are stylish enough to get into view, and I don't see any gaps from their standings.
"Well, what shall we do... He does swordsmanship, witchcraft, number of tricks, and when he's going to raise a rookie... don't call him an all-purpose instructor."
"I thought it would be great for rookie education."
"Not while we're in our hands. If a disciple like that gets mass-produced, I can't stop."
Emilia smiles at Diaz's words. It was strange that this boss, who usually didn't tell a lot of jokes, collapsed a little when it came to Redo.
"As I said. But you probably realize who I am. Because of that, I think I was convinced that the [black blade] was moving."
"Chi (...) with (...) or let (...) (...) with (...) with (...)? Good because I could have stopped the Devil's plot as a result... I wouldn't have exposed you to that place if I knew, but let's also use it to help guide surveillance"
"Sorry"
"I don't hate that about you. Now get back to work. It's time for work, isn't it?
"Yes. Now if you'll excuse me,"
Diaz, alone, slows his thoughts.
Emilia Arsenberg. [Black Blade (Krone)] Excellent flying and that Mirazel favorite.
Now, how to flex her while she's in my hands...... and how to make the most of Redo McLaffin.
Diaz thought about all that.
