Connected Sierra and Rick leave the Adventurer Guild and walk down the boulevard in front of the building.

Jilly follows them.

"I mean, how old are you?"

Sierra said she was bored, but Rick was tired of it.

I started talking about work when I came to see you. So Sierra invited me to a delicious meal.

"Hello."

"Welcome."

When you enter one of the stalls on the main street, I'll ask you for a juice made by squeezing the fruit.

"Delicious"

Rick smiled satisfied after drinking the juice.

Just looking at that expression made Sierra smile.

"You're both Isla's children."

That's right.

"Rumor has it that Isla is back now, and she looks just like her when she was little, so I knew right away."

Ehehe

It was said to be similar and illuminated.

Babby

"Come back."

Return the glass containing the juice and go to the Adventurer Alliance.

"Are you going back?

"Yeah, it's about time I finished."

Alright, alright.

Walking down the street, Sierra and Rick are crowded. There were many people watching it from afar, so the surroundings seemed to be punctured.

--Hyun!

"... dangerous!?

Jilly jumped in screaming.

However, it was a pleasant situation, so even if I jumped in and stood up, I couldn't catch the flying arrows.

Oh, I knew it.

Very cold spinned words.

The voice in Jilly's ear that jumped in came from the immediate vicinity.

Are you sure you want to do this?

"This is my job, too."

A rooftop of a building with a view of the main street.

There were two men standing there.

Both are lightweight, with one pointing his eyes to the boulevard through the monocle and the other pointing his bow and arrow.

They're after Sierra and Rick.

I'm accompanying an unscheduled person, but I'm about to assassinate a child.

"They're innocent children."

"So you're saying the people you've killed are innocent people?

"That's...."

They're the assassination squad of the Palent family.

The aim is to secretly assassinate those who are inconvenient to the House of Parents.

"We just do what we're told."

"... I understand."

Turn the arrow toward Rick with a tenderness.

"The moment came when I was away from my parents. This is the perfect time."

Though the Lord's assassination squad is not within the Adventurer Alliance.

That's why children alone came out of the Adventurers Guild. This is an undeniable lack of information, but it's also home to us. The target was to dive into the shooting spot immediately.

"- Do it."

Arrows are fired as they travel to the sniper point.

--Karan, Karan, Karan!

"... what?

The sound of an arrow falling to the ground rang three times (...).

Three sounds played at different times. Arrows were also fired from different places.

"What the hell...."

Watch where a man casts his magic on a monocle.

This monokuru is a magical tool that can be used to magnify and reflect distant sights and capture even the slightest behavior of the opponent.

……

However, the enlarged scene showed the girl staring at herself.

"Impossible....."

I am aware of the shooter.

"Nh...?

Sierra's mouth slowly moved.

"'Bang'...?

Murmuring without a word.

However, confused is when the scream pulls away consciousness in an instant.

"Gyaaaaaaaaa!

I heard a scream coming from next door.

The sniper, who bled out in a hurry, crouched.

"What... what is this!?

A bow shattered to pieces by the center part that rolls onto the floor.

The squatting sniper keeps bleeding out of his elbows.

Screams can be heard from other places. I can't say for sure, but it's where the other two snipers were lurking.

"No way...."

There were three snipers.

Maybe they're all in the same condition.

I was unexpectedly confronted with a strange sight.

Found it.

A childish voice from behind.

But turn slowly to the frozen voice of your spine.

"Ha...!?

There was a girl who was the subject of an assassination.

"Ah, that's impossible...!

This is the roof of a three-story building. It's not a place where children can come easily.

No, it would have been too early to arrive if it had moved in the first place. The man stared at Sierra until he heard a scream from next door. And it's only been about five seconds since I was able to turn my eyes away from Sierra and speak. It's obviously not normal.

"I'm sorry, what?

"What...?

"If I do something bad, I have to say," I'm sorry. "

That's something anyone can teach a child with a parent.

But as he grew up, he forgot, so he couldn't immediately understand what he was saying.

Haha

There is no laughter when a child looks like a child.

"Unfortunately, this is our job. So it's not a bad thing."

"That's not true. Dad taught me that it's bad to attract people! You used an arrow on Rikkun."

……

I understand what they tried to do.

"Mmm! We have to do it for people who don't like it!

Sierra turns to the man who crouches.

"Ahhhhh!

The next moment, the sniper's left foot flew from the tip of his knee.

"That was....."

The man's eyes finally showed what Sierra had done.

A compressed wind bullet was fired from Sierra's hand and the sniper's foot was thrown.

"Who the hell are you..."

It's magic for attacks.

It's impossible for a young child to use a level of magic to attack. Not to mention the human beings next door, who can't be involved and used for defense.

"Did you defend that arrow with the wind?"

Magically generates and defends the wind wall just before the arrow hits.

The arrow pushed by the wind fell to the ground.

"I'm sorry, what?

Repeated requests.

I don't care about childish demands.

Surrender.

"I'm sorry, what?

"Oh, I'm sorry."

When can I pretend to apologize like this?

I always abandoned my pure childish feelings, and since I started working on assassinations, I had no interest in taking the lives of others.

I was taught that I was doing something wrong again.

"Yeah."

Are you satisfied? Sierra jumps off the roof.

"Ah, hey...."

If you jump from the top of the third floor, a child won't get stuck.

I hurried out and checked the condition.

"... who are you really?

There was a sierra walking towards her brother as if nothing had happened on the ground.

Jilly noticed the sniper and tried to defend herself, but the whole city was alarmed and the interception was delayed. Thanks to you, only one sniper can make it. That's why I'm glad Sierra defended me.

In addition, I was upset by the sudden disappearance of Sierra and was only able to protect Rick.

"On the contrary, it's a shame to be attacked as an assassin."

"... did you know everything?"

I understand by the cold of the blade that hits my neck.

"Is this where your parents come in?"

"I forgave her because she's a child, but I'm not going to forgive her easily."
