Darenidemo Dekiru Kage Kara Tasukeru Maō Tōbatsu
Second report: institutional improvements
The sun had already set when he returned to the inn, touring mercenary mediators and intermediaries throughout the capital.
The job of a heretic exterminator was originally to use your legs. I'm used to walking around and not being productive, but it's still mentally painful when the hopes I see are crushed.
The time I've been able to do this is a unique opportunity to rebuild my attitude.
The Kingdom of Lukes is a great power. And it puts the prestige of the country on the presence of the Saint Brave. You can say that the safety of Fujido while in Wangdu is secured by the state.
Guards should always be on, and Fujido and the others aren't that weak. It is quite unlikely that enough powerful demons can defeat Fujido to break into the King's City and shake off their escorts to succeed in the assassination. Or if that's the way it can be done, Luke can say he's already defeated.
It's been a long time since I've been able to forget about Fujido and move. You can't waste a second.
But the first hand I was thinking of hitting - my buddy's replenishment was quickly riding up the reef.
I went around the prestigious intermediary that existed in the Wang capital, but I couldn't find a single person I was looking for.
I did impose tough conditions, but it doesn't make sense to include a fellow powerless man. I have money, and I thought I had one or so fatalities, but the outlook seemed a little sweet.
Keeping the materials collected everywhere by his side, he opened the front door and the air containing strong liquor and hot air enveloped his body.
There was a misery spreading in the living room. Countless empty liquor bottles roll over there, and the large table overlaps several dishes of dirty dishes. The inn also has a liquor store, but apparently they let him carry the food.
…………
On the table, Sanya lays still, and in the corner of the room, the rabbi is holding her knees, laying face down and whining bumps. I don't see Amelia, but this wouldn't happen if Amelia were here.
Sure, I'm the one who did the vacation, but isn't that a little too distracting?
I had something to say, but I put up with it only by frowning. If they were apprentices or stays, they'd give me one of the novels, but the job is decent. You should take a big look.
When I approached Sanya, who lay on the table, I pulled relentlessly the silver ears that were drooling.
"Huh!???????? Hey, what? What! What!?
"... too distracting. What if the assassin comes?
"Mm-hmm! Ears, don't pull!? You're not coming, are you? Boss, isn't it hard to live thinking about that all the time?
Sanya waves her face wide, waves her hands off and disputes me. I thought you weren't feeling well, but you don't seem to be.
My ears seemed to move out of my heart. I smell strong liquor, but its eyes capture this one properly.
"I was worried you weren't feeling well. Just don't grab my tail."
"Tail!? You tried to grab my tail!? Towards the Beast Man, what a horrible thing..."
"Have you guys been in your rooms all day? It's my vacation..."
Looks like the rabbi's awake, too, but there's no sign of him raising his face. Same response as Sanya's - you better get going. Different personality.
To my words, Sanya stands up and stretches her spine, telling her like she's outraged.
"Animals are rare in the King's Capital, aren't they? I'm trying not to go out there. My tail and ears don't have to be as prominent as pure silver werewolves, and when they stand out, it's hard to work..."
…………
I see, it's a reason to be convinced. Sanya is not just a mercenary, so I guess it's hard to do when she finds out what's wrong with her face.
But these guys... are you gonna pull it off for three days?
Sanya waves her smart tail and raises her voice as if to clear the depression she was pulling into the room.
"Rabbi is terrible. It would suck if I found out, because they would expose me. Of course I can handle it, but I can't add or subtract it..."
".................. that was bad. We should have found some way to spare time."
"Totally. I can't even move my body in this place!
The lodging that is now stopped is somewhat of a higher grade lodging. The main guests are merchants and there is no space for mercenaries to train unlike the accommodation they stay in.
I was going to have a good place to rest, but he mishandled it.
"So the rabbi's blocked, too?"
"No, the rabbi is always like that because he's an indoorsman..."
Check the rabbi. Ever since I walked into the room, there's been no sign of anything unusual about the rabbi.
Unlike Sanya, Rabbi's outfit is in a thick robe and I can't even see her expression because she's lying on her face. I guess I'm not even asleep because I hear a creepy little twinkle, but it was a little creepy.
The Indochists are not on the level. It's really strange in the world because it's such an amazing assassin.
Apparently, he was quite free, and Sanya's eyes were glistening. Keep talking about what you don't need to be peppered about.
"Later, maybe that's it. That. Emotional! The Rabbit is very heavy. I've never been here before, but the Raptors are young."
…………
The rabbi crush stopped. When I check softly, my arm holding my knee is shaking.
But Sanya's words don't stop.
"I usually slash people and diverge, but when I really don't have a way to distract them, yeah, I do it and try not to move my body and restrain myself. It may look like a goof, but don't get me wrong, boss! Rabbi is fighting himself right now. It's amazing how a rabbit endures his estrus!? Oh, I can't even touch the rabbi. Males, females, no sights."
That's... thanks for the sensible precautions.
But it's very troublesome if it stays this way. I only gave it to Rabbi for three days. Wouldn't you also be able to get into work until after your estrus and doing it?
I will have to continue to have the demon king army executives slaughtered with the protection of Master Fire Kiri...
"... so when does that estrus and all that end?
Sanya giggled at me as I dived into her voice.
"It won't end. Boss, the libido is probably much stronger than the boss thinks. Their estrus is all year long. Rabbi's still light because he's half, but he doesn't even know when it's gonna end, does he?
Seriously......
The rabbi was trembling to endure humiliation. If Sanya's words are true, she won't even have the energy to stop talking.
Doesn't look like you can fight very well from what's happening now. Even though there is no prospect of replenishing new personnel, another headache problem has been discovered.
"[Lane] So... you got lucky..."
"?? No, [Lane] but the rabbi has always had an outburst - hips!?
Sanya screams and jumps away, flipping to the floor. When it was thrown, a giant natta plundered its neck muscle, making a mild noise and poking it into the wall.
The rabbi gets up fluttered and stares at this one with crimson eyes. I grabbed my arms tightly, and the look of it was impatient.
".................. Suma, let it go. Sanya... say something weird... forget it"
"Oh, oh..."
"Work is... no problem. Yes, no problem, is. This has always been so... I'm used to it. Whatever."
"Oh, oh..."
".................. I don't think it would be a problem if you were the boss...... no need to say anything else please. In some cases, you have to kill them."
"... oh"
Are you sure you're all right? The next time you send the rabbi to Fujido's place, will you slaughter Fujido on some clap and kill him?
Anyway, I'm used to her accidents. No preliminary motion. How easy it would be to jump Fujido's neck all alarmed.
I swung away that imagination for a moment and decided to turn the idea of measures later.
It would be difficult to live with such a long estrus period, something should exist to suppress it. Next time, I'll get it somewhere.
"... Speaking of which, what happened to Amelia?
"... I'm sleeping in my bedroom because they left me on vacation."
As Sanya rubbed her thin, bloody seeping neck on the floor, she let her shoulders clasp small.
Apparently, I was right to be the first to start looking for company in Wangdu.
§
In a room where I had cleared out plates, liquor bottles, etc., I once again looked around at my dependable companions.
Sanya cares about the dangerously severed neck compartment to Amelia, who swells her cheeks in a sleeping roll. Rabbi wearing a hood and looking at my neck with red eyes like blood and the face you rarely see.
No one will look at us and imagine it's a party entrusted with the great task of supporting the Demon King's Crusade. It is a perfect cover.
The interior was wrapped in unspeakable air.
Maybe I should have given him a vacation and not stopped the engine he was running.
"Mr. Ares...... it's off today. I also took a break from my daily prayers."
Monk begins to say disqualified things Leave Amelia alone and open her mouth as she strives to remain calm. I'm on vacation, but only to talk about work at times like this.
"I finally got a vacation, so I came around the mercenary intermediary to increase the number of people. Well, I couldn't find a single mercenary to satisfy my demands."
"Boss, you promised to take the day off, right? If you don't think I'm here in the morning, what are you doing? I know, I know. My boss won't rest, so neither can my men!
You've been resting long enough, you guys.
As a result of going around the intermediary, I couldn't find the person you were looking for as a single person. Then afterwards - we have to rely on our individual connections.
Unfortunately, my connections were unlikely to work, but Sanya and Rabbi are the disciples of legendary mercenaries. You'll know a lot of people.
Can't you get super good people at that cone for super cheap?
After listening to me, the rabbi just turned his eyes to me and said:
"Boss, I'm not here. I can't."
"What? Boss, maybe we're just anxious!?
"No. I'm dissatisfied with the Sanya and the others... not that I have one. There is simply a shortage of people. I want to have a complete system."
I'm not zero dissatisfaction, but I shouldn't be saying it now.
Sanya rides herself out and the rabbi says pale.
"You think I'm gonna sell my people? A good mercenary is something that has minimal crisis management in place. The boss's demands are too high. Even unscrupulous mercenaries have some more good work to do."
I'm looking for a suicide candidate.
"Ugh, that's a terrible way to put it"
"Mostly, I got Rabbi and Sanya the same way. It shouldn't be impossible."
There is peace in the world here.
Rabbi lay down his eyes and said to me in a sad voice I had never heard before.
"It... worked because the subject wasn't the master himself, it was us. Maybe if the demands were on me, I would have said no. My master is excellent, but very... because he has a habitual personality"
It makes sense. Blanc was the one I really wanted to be one of, but that guy didn't shake his head vertically either.
I nodded loudly and changed my approach.
"I see............... then no one in a similar standing position?
Costs must be lost as much as possible. Later we can make fun of ourselves with the convenient word 'rewarding', but nothing can be done to keep us out of it.
To my words, the rabbi shook himself as if he had opened his eyes and frightened.
"!? Ho, seriously, I'm telling you, are you?
"............... if you weren't tied up in a contract, I'd just like to get out of here right now. I joined a hell of a group. Even so, I knew very well in [Water Capital]."
A heretic exterminator cannot be made if he is afraid of being feared.
Pinch up the empty liquor bottle and say it in a serious tone with a shivering view.
"The answer is NO. No one like that."
There were no joking colors in that tone or expression as usual. There was a professional mercenary figure there.
"The boss drew Rabbi and me in by successfully negotiating with his master - drawing attention from some of them. Some of this is about super-class mercenaries who don't take their normal jobs in the tavern."
…………
"They do not move with simple large sums of money, nor do they dispose of their disciples. The worst joke is our master. So my master became a legend, and I took half-beast men like me and rabbi as disciples - if a boss who is challenging an extremely dangerous mission wants to get help from those people - he needs to achieve enough results to cooperate"
Sanya's words were as good as Rabbi's.
But - I don't care about that. Worst case scenario, you can dispose of it, so I want to fill up quickly.
Have you finished what you're trying to say, Sanya turns an empty liquor bottle, narrows her eyes and looks at me. At its mouth I could see the sharp canine teeth characteristic of the Silver Wolves.
The mercenaries must know about Helyar's crusade. However, the fact that personnel were still unavailable meant that that was not what they were looking for.
It's too dangerous - the handle will publicly belong to the brave. That's what happens when no one wants to take such a request.
I understood the situation correctly, tongued, looked around Sanya and Rabbi, and ordered.
"All right, Sanya, Rabbi. Tell Bran or his mercenary buddies. How much experience I've had under me and how awesome I've grown. Say how amazing a leader I am and how amazing Amelia is a colleague, and from now on - there's a rare experience waiting for me that can't replace any big bucks or lives."
"!?... Me, boss's attitude towards that shortest, I don't hate it, but don't think I'm wrong... Are you lying to me?
"Look, Sanya. Our journey is harsh - but the more people we let in, the better our chances of survival. I have a duty to do my best, and I am responsible for bringing everyone back alive."
I don't dare to tell lies or anything, I switch stories.
The number of people is an important element. Sometimes, quality does not cover the number.
I assure you, Sanya shuddered her body when she hit me. My tail slaps me under the chair and says upwards.
"... I can't. I look like this... I like a strong boss, but I can't talk to him about it. I can't help you. I reported that you can have a rare experience... but I hope you'll be patient with me for a while."
I say a lot of nasty things. I mean, the rare experience this guy reported was about Ares Merman.
Nothing will come out of squeezing Sanya any further. I can't even get a rabbi. From that look I see a strong readiness.
That's Bran's apprentice, well educated. It's troublesome that I can no longer use the quickest method, but this is by no means inconvenient for me.
They are strong. Strong and reliable. It's up to me how I use it.
I look at Amelia, but Amelia shook her head beside her in a grumpy manner. The rabbi's checking in terribly.
"... are there no mercenaries or anything else the boss knows? I heard the boss was working with mercenaries for a time..."
"... Unfortunately, all the mercenaries I know are on the front line or under the grave. I sent the letter all the time, but it's unlikely."
Where did you get this information? Again, Bran?
Mercenaries I know are strong enough, but unlike Blanc, they are active, and they are all on the front with the Demon King's Army. The front line maintains its antagonism at its limit, and I don't think they'll come abandoning their fellow fighters, no matter how brave they are for them.
"From the church, any more people, etc?
"I don't need any more monks (Priest)"
The heretic exterminators are powerful, but they are all monks (Priest). Combat ability is inferior to normal warriors of the same level.
I want someone we're not good enough for right now. A durable warrior who can support the front line, or a wizard who's not Doji. I want one of those.
I don't have a choice, I really want to avoid it, but do you want to see another means? Originally, I thought we had to discuss this once while we were in Wang Capital.
Ask Amelia, dressed defenselessly, who doesn't seem like a Sister, not to look at her as much as possible.
"Amelia. Sorry while I'm on vacation, but please contact me"
"............... to whom?
"Gresha, it is. We need to talk, call it in."
