Advisor to Adventurer Alliance All Purpose ~ [Magic Swordsman] said to be [instrumentally poor] and banished from the Brave Party, but I can teach swordsmanship and witchcraft [All-purpose Instructor], so I decided to entrust my beloved apprentice with the King of Demons Crusade

Ledo's life has changed a lot since the Gaddis raid.

First of all, the training that Cece and the others were doing in the morning was reduced once a week. Although Cece and the others are being chased for a nomination request, it is also said that [all environmental training centers] can no longer be used to a large extent.

Harald was also blindfolded for Ledo's personal use because Cece and the others were anonymous, but when Cece and the others became famous so far, then it was visible that other adventurers would tell him to open up.

Linton will miss you, but I can't help it. Once a week, the [all-environment training center] was opened in the form of Ledo's lectures in action, and at that time, Cece and the others finally conducted training.

In the afternoon, he still gave lectures at the Guild Tavern. Heroes also received Kaoru pottery lectures, so adventurers, both domestic and international, had recently arrived and were now booked.

Diaz smelled insignificant about putting in a lecture in her spare morning hours, but Redo refused to do so.

Redo travels north on a vibrant boulevard.

The scars from the Gaddis raid were completely gone, and the rest of the place, signs appeared that "[White Dragon's Breath] fought” and were tightly linked to commerce.

"A boulder is just a city with a lot of merchants..."

Redo laughed bitterly when he spotted a souvenir that would become a white dragon bun.

Even myself, I'm getting fed up. I'm sure Cece and the others would be more. Redo looked into their hearts.

From the boulevard, enter the sidewalk east and climb the ramp. The East Side of Gaddis is a sleek hill with quiet residential areas. Shortly after climbing that ramp, there was a huge building. An ancient look made me think of it as a temple or something, but on the table was a stone tablet inscribed [Great Library].

This country, the Alliance of Kayla Free Cities, is a relatively new country compared to other countries, but the land itself was considered the birthplace of this continent's oldest civilization, dotted with ancient ruins and remains.

For those who discover, survey and excavate such sites - steal (...) excavate (...) as their business, this country was the best base on this continent. Artifacts, artifacts, and books found are investigated and preserved in the appropriate institutions.

Among other things, this [Great Library] was in charge of the books.

If there were no problems with the contents, replicas were created and made available to the general public. So this is a kind of sanctuary for historians, archaeologists, etc... Redo doesn't care about that, he climbs the entrance stairs with his big crotch and goes inside.

The shelves we aim for are historical and archaeological shelves.

In the library, shelves filled with books without gaps smell like walls, paper and slight mold.

Redo didn't hate this smell.

"... are you here again? You're free."

It was one woman sitting there and dropping her eyes on a single book who spoke so carelessly to Redo passing by the desk for the clerk.

Green habitual hair put together in the back of the head, silver edged eyeglasses. My brown eyes are about to sleep behind that glass. He looks young, but the atmosphere is that of the wise, and he feels old. She may be in her late teens for Ledo to see, but I'm not really sure about the eyes she sees women because of something that happened recently.

The woman was wearing a fabulous brown robe, and Ledo always thought that if she was wearing a hat, she would be like a witch in a fairy tale.

But even though I do go here a lot lately, treat me like a free man......

"That's a greeting. I'm still intellectually curious. Just fine, I need to find out. It's about the connection between the Great Lighthouse and the Demon Clan. History, heritage, fairytale, whatever. Yorne, do you have any good books?

The library witch, and Jorne, whom Ledo secretly calls, finally lifted his face out of the book and turned his sleepy eyes to Ledo.

"How do you know my name..."

Redo started collecting information in the library and occasionally had this conversation with Yorne, but he certainly didn't introduce himself.

Ledo is not going to be honest with me because I felt something from Journey that wasn't just him, so I snuck up on him in the back, and so on.

"If there's a name tag plate on your desk, I don't want to know."

That's what Redo said and turned his gaze toward the plate on the clerk's desk. There it says [second-degree secretary Jorne Lilya].

"Oh...... well. Yeah, all of a sudden they called me by name... surprised me"

"I'm sorry. Oh, I..."

"Redo McLaffin. An S-ranked adventurer who led [White Dragon Breath] to the hero of the border. Although it worked in the previous incident, it has not been tabulated. There was no story floated around to publicly proclaim that I liked alcohol, tobacco and women, and now the topic of which women are destiny is held up in the neighborhood. I bet that Sister on fate. The reason for this is the bias that I think I like the lucky thin system."

Ledo rounds his eyes to Jorne, who suddenly grows up fast.... you even grasp your movements that shouldn't have been published? No, more than that. That bet.

Or what neighborhood! and thoughts confusing ledo.

"That look... great. Oh... and... about the Great Lighthouse and the Demon Clan... I don't think there are any directly related books... the Great Lighthouse related books on shelf number twelve... might be of some help... and then... if you're going to look into the Great Lighthouse... than you are related to the Demon Clan... it's better to look into ancient (...) dragons (...)... Recommend..."

"Oh, oh... thanks..."

Redo found his face cramped.

"I'm betting on my salary...... nice to meet you"

To put it that way, Jorne dropped his eyes on the book as if he had lost interest.

Ledo, who had understood in several conversations here that it was useless to say anything when this happened, went to Shelf XII as he was told.

They said something about it, but let's forget it... Redo switched his mind. But... you said it was an ancient dragon? What does the Great Lighthouse have to do with the ancient dragons? And how does that connect with the Demons?

When Redo took the book as soon as allowances or whatever, he piled it up on a nearby desk and sat in a chair.

"Now, how much can you read?

Then Redo read them through the afternoon.

Meanwhile, Cece was worried about something back then.

No, I have a lot of worries, but I've been worried about Cece lately in particular.

"... ugh..."

For Cece and the others, who were able to speak up wherever they went, the only place to rest was in the inn, which was no longer turned into a private room.

I have a lot of sighs when the cohabitants in that room do it lately.

"Reede, what's wrong? I kind of have a lot of sighs though."

"Oh, is that right!?

I grinned like Reede fixed my eyes.

"Yeah. It's also empty somewhere up there during the request. If you have any problems, I'll ask, okay?

Cece told Redo to be more concerned about the party members. They told me that was the role of the leader. And if you get tired or worried about it, you tell me to talk to myself.

Redo has been busy lately, but stopped interfering with Riede and Irene and Ellios as much as he did before. He gives advice and opinions if asked, but he doesn't try to get involved with them himself.

Cece blurred and understood it must be for me.

Now I see myself, the leader of the brave [White Dragon's Breath], under an unbearable amount of responsibility and heavy pressure. Still, I am their leader. There's no top or bottom... but at least we have to be able to rely on everyone.

I'm sure the master is trying to make me do it without a hand. [M]

Cece thought so, and for that reason, he was concerned about how the sky leads up recently.

"No, I'm not particularly troubled...... Maybe it's floating because summer is approaching."

That's how Reede grinned. But Cece didn't lie about the words, but she realized the truth wasn't there again.

"If you need anything, say it. I'm always helped by Reede, so I want it back with something."

"I'm helping you, too, Mr. Cece. So don't worry."

"Yeah. So it's time to go down. Irene and the others are waiting."

"Yes."

Now, I wonder what's going on, and Cece gradually switched to the one requesting to do the thinking, even though she was troubled.

Ready, when I went to the inn entrance, Irene and Ellios were already waiting.

"It's late!! What the hell are you doing? [The neck of those who do not chant the hourglass] Oh!

"We came too soon, didn't we? Don't worry, Cece, there's plenty of room for a request rendezvous."

Irene caught an eyebrow, and Elios accepted it.

"I'm sorry. Then come on."

"Sorry, because I was confused"

Seeing both apologizing, Irene immediately loosened her expression.

"hehe...... gem auction...... hehe...... come on!!

Today's request was a merchant's escort to attend a jewelry auction at an auction house on the East Side.

Four people who choose the least crowded path possible to go on, but when they are really together, they stand out.

"That's [White Dragon's Breath], right?

Cece and the others are already used to the sight of passing people looking back and saying so.

Irene, who is usually reluctant to be rumored that way, remains the same today.

You look happy, Irene.

"You can see all kinds of gems on top of the request just standing on your side! I'm glad to hear that!

"I wouldn't be alarmed if we were escorts... but we're just accessories."

That's how Ellios returns it in a self-derision.

"Right. But it's a good thing that you can have money without exchange of lives."

"Yeah. I've saved up a lot of money, but I've never gotten past it."

These requests have increased recently. A request to call Cece and the others where there is clearly no need to escort just to appeal to their own financial and power.

After knowing that they were just decorations, Cece listened to each member of the party and agreed to them.

Diaz, the branch manager, was also pleased with this. In any case, these requests cost a lot of money for the Alliance. In particular, the system of nominating adventurers is paid, and the nomination fee for the Ceces [breath of the white dragon], which went up to C (...) la (...) n (...) c (...), is quite high...... Cece heard from Ledo.

It's all the wealthy and constantly powerful people in this city, the big merchants, politicians, celebrities, and so on, who make these requests in the first place. Cece felt it would be beneficial to get acquainted with those people.

So Cece didn't get much of an adventurous request to dive into the ruins, travel, or crusade the demons.

Naturally, Ledo, who knows about it, dared not say anything.

Pipes with such people are naturally necessary to raise (...) the Adventurer Rank in the future and (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (... (...) (...) (...)

As you can see for the first time by touching the fire and burning it... Ledo didn't intend to teach Cece and the others how to handle it from here on out and deal with overprotections. I'll give it to you if you can ask for my opinion or advice, but I'm not going to tell you from here.

I wish there were mistakes, failures and painful eyes. And once again, Redo thought he would always have the hand to reach out to the sheaths who fell into them.

Instead of pulling the sheaths trying to climb up, keep them netted so they don't get fatally injured if they fall... Redo thought that was his role.

Cece wasn't told that, but she was somehow guessing.

In the end, they were mentors no matter where they went.

Cece and the others used the back alley to reach behind the auction house.

"Yeah, we went a little far, but time fits in between - eh!

To the anomaly, Cece immediately noticed.

"I smell blood!

Everyone reaches out to their respective gains and quickly enters a state of battle.

If you look at it, there was a blood build-up in the place that was the entrance to the auction house, and one man had fallen in the center of it.

"Reede, healing magic!

"Yes!"

Reede rushes over with Cece and her voice.

"... for nothing. He's already dead."

But Irene had already noticed that the man was out.

Irene found that the man's neck had been amputated, and to see its amputated surface, it was a horribly sharp blade, or a beheading mark by the (...) standing (...) person (...) of the phase (...) when (...) the arm (...).

It's so bright, it looks as if it hasn't been slashed yet.

"Who... did this..."

Ellios looked down at the body with a rugged look on his face.

On closer inspection, the ankle as well as the neck had been severed, pointing in a direction where the toe was not exposed.

"Let the auction house people know and report it. There's nothing we can do. Guys, don't touch anything."

"Let's do that. If they treat you like a murderer, you won't be able to."

"But why in this place?

Cece, Irene and Ellios were discussing it that way, but only Reede stared at its body without emitting anything.

Sheath called out when she noticed how it was going.

"What's wrong, Reede?"

"... no way..."

"Huh?"

Seemed like Cece's voice hadn't reached Reede. Though Reede hadn't changed her expression so far, things were strange.

"Reede! What's wrong!?

When Cece raised her voice again, Reede turned back to me hah and smiled her usual smile at Cece.

"Sorry...... I don't know - similar (...) and (...) and (...). No, it's my fault"

"... are you okay?

"Yes. Anyway, let's call the Metropolitan Police."

"Yeah."

This body and incident discovered by Cece and the others were immediately reported to the Metropolitan Police, the auction was cancelled, and Cece and the others were only examined in form and opened.

And that night - Reede left a short letter... missing.
