"Welcome, welcome."

A man in a familiar suit lowers his head.

The location is the reception room in the aristocratic residence.Despite an unexpected visit, guests came through, even if they were adventurers.

Obviously not an attitude toward adventurers.

For a moment, I was wondering, but I was convinced by my position in the Glenvarga Empire.

"It's Mars the Adventurer. Thank you for your time despite your sudden visit."

"No, don't worry.I hear you're a common sense adventurer.That's why he came so suddenly, so I wonder if he had something urgent to do? "

Relax and deal with the nobles.

But inside, I know that it's rough, and I understand the situation.

Acyl Sankund.

Lord of the Baron family ruling a small territory in the northern part of the Grenvarga Empire, with one son and three daughters.His son is studying to succeed him at the Imperial School, his eldest daughter is married to a nearby aristocrat, and his youngest daughter lives in the Mansion because she is young.

Since I know the Emperor, I can ask him for simple information about the aristocrats.

"I brought you here today because I wanted you to meet me."

"... no way!?"

"Unfortunately, I'm not that person."

and the door of the reception room is knocked when the cone is closed.

It was Sylvia and the flair she brought in with her permission.

"...! Is she our maid!?"

If you use Appraisal on the other person, you can also peek at the other person's occupation.However, you can only peek into your current occupation and not even see what kind of work you have done in the past.

When the flare was [appraised], it was only labeled "slave".

It was a [Labyrinth Magic: Appraisal] that allowed you to peek into information that you would not normally see, so you could know what Flair was doing before he became a slave.

"I'm sure it's Sankund's maid."

"Hey, what happened!?"

Instead of answering the question, he rushed over and grabbed his shoulder and asked about Flair.

However, Flair did not react to Acyl even though he was the former lord, and he looked at me, the current lord, and waited for an order.

"What the hell...."

I am finally suspicious of Acyl's condition.

She was a slave until yesterday.

I told him how I found Flair after lying down the facts about the labyrinth.

Although there are parts that do not fall into my heart because the key part is missing, I can't afford to worry about it because it is related to the worries of the past few days.

"Is my daughter... safe!?"

The second daughter of the Sankund family - Rita.

A week ago, I took my escort and maid out in a carriage to attend a party hosted by a nobleman ruling a nearby territory.

However, it was confirmed until I returned from the party, but I was unable to grasp the subsequent steps and was missing.

"Does Baron Sankund know about recent slaves famous in the North?"

"No...."

If you buy a slave, you'll need the money you need.

Rich merchants and nobles. Adventurers sometimes ask for slaves to fight alongside them.Even if they could afford to buy it, they would not buy it for no purpose.

There was nothing in the Baron's house that required slavery.

"A long time ago, slaves loyal to the Lord began to appear as slavers.We have been asked by the Emperor to investigate the slave. "

The court magician's investigation led him to find the city where the slaves were already and told him that he had found Flair in the slavers there.

No way, it's Daresden.

The city of Daresden, where the slaves lived.

The Count of Daresden, who ruled the city, was a patron of the Sankund family and relied on emergencies like this one.When it was discovered that he was missing, he explained the circumstances.

I don't know if the Count of Daresden knew the circumstances and made a false report or if he didn't know anything.

"She's being made to look like this by some magical tool."

"Yes"

"I need you to help me get out of this situation and find my daughter."

"If there's anything I can do, I'll do."

The Baron of Sankund takes his daughter's life seriously.

Spread the map over the table.

"First, please tell me the city where the party was held."

It has been proved that he was attacked on the way home.

"This way."

It was a city that flourished in the transportation industry - Refolus - sometimes close to the river.

The flare-maids didn't even know the name of the city, rather than where they were headed.All I knew was the butler who was in charge of them.The butler is still missing because he has not been found as a slave.

"What route would you take if you came back from Refolus to Sankund?"

"Normally..."

It looked the same as usual.

Suddenly there was a bandit raid and everyone was caught.

I didn't know where it was attacked because I was a maid who didn't know about the route, but if it wasn't an emergency, it's likely that I was attacked somewhere along the route originally envisaged.

"--This is what happens."

It is easy to understand if shown on a map.

I see.

There is a cave in the vicinity of the place that was attacked.

The flare brought into Asia was brainwashed with magic tools.

Knowing the route makes it difficult to narrow down the raid site.

However, if you narrow it down to a cave nearby, it will be limited.

You understand the scope.

Yes.

Let's split up from here and look for him.

There must have been a raid somewhere between Refolus and Sankund.

I'll take Sylvia and England and look for them from the Sankund side.

"I'm looking for a bandit. I'll look for your daughter if I can."

"Oh, please! I've been looking all week, but I can't find it no matter how hard I try!"

Baron Sankund is desperately following me.

I know how your father feels about his missing daughter.But at the same time, I realized that there was someone in my heart who was looking at reality cold.

One week since he went missing.

At the same time, the taken flare was handed over to the slavers.

Then it is unlikely that Rita will be safe.

I don't know if he's still with the bandits or if he's being handed over to some slaver.

"If we can catch the bandits, we should have enough clues."

"Please!"
