He Didn’t Want to Be the Center of Attention, Hence, after Defeating the Demon Lord, He Became Guild Master

Episode 36 The Truth of the Elegant Explorer and the Chamber of Commerce

After receiving orders from Alliance Master Dick, Sakuya headed to the headquarters of the Gallam Door Chamber of Commerce on 10th Street.

Her profession is' Explorer '. Although it is not a profession specializing in undercover operations, there are cases where the ability to investigate confidential information does not extend to the profession of intelligence. I don't specialize in intelligence at the Silver Bottle Pavilion, but I work in the Intelligence Department, organize the information that comes into the Guild, and sometimes I investigate it myself on the ground.

The Moon Rabbit Man has a longer life span than humans, but she doesn't look that different from her age. The age is unknown, but it is because I stopped counting after a certain age.

She met Dick four years ago through an incident and decided to put herself in his guild. Until then, Sakuya wasn't interested in rank, but she registered with the Adventurer Alliance and learned about Adventurer Strength for the first time. The combat assessment is close to 10,000 even with the self-defense technique acquired to defend oneself. Taken together, the Lunar Rabbit's special abilities, Explorer's functions, etc., make the total strength 32384, which is assessed as an S-ranked adventurer.

Those with this number are less than one-tenth of the population of the King's City, and are further reduced when they reach the SS rank, which is equal to God. Sakuya recognizes that, but the face of the Demon King Crusaders, and Verlaine, do not convey their feelings to people because they do not abuse their power.

(Even so, I can't leave everything to him.)

While silencing footsteps, concealing signs, and wearing a grey coat to hide its exposed appearance, Sakuya passes past the noise of the pub, which is open until late at night, to her destination. No one can look up to you.

Eventually, you leave the bustling area and enter a neighborhood lined with shops and more. About a quarter of the neighborhood was occupied by the Galamdoor Chamber of Commerce.

Surrounded by walls and walls, there is a courtyard and a luxurious two-storey mansion. Sakuya looked at the materials at hand and noticed that rare animals have grown rapidly recently.

(The Master seems to have read it. It's faint from this mansion, but it smells like a beast....)

After confirming that no one was watching, Sakuya stepped on the ground and jumped up. As a result, she jumps over a wall twice her height with a rear flip.

After he stood inside the wall, Sakuya noticed that a dog was thrown at the garden.

A rabbit makes a dog a natural enemy, but not a Moon Rabbit. Sakuya shook her hand at the running dogs and smashed a little spell.

"Illusion"

The magic that is the beginning of illusion works - dogs don't have the magic to resist, dogs who are suddenly running stop their feet and lie down on the spot to show their stomachs.

Sakuya smiles when she sees the dogs looking comfortable.

"If your masters are going to disappear from here, I'll let them go naturally. The herd will survive."

Sakuya doesn't like the smell of another beast. As a result, they set aside dogs trapped in phantoms and headed to the Mansion without going any closer than necessary.

Even if the race is different, it is only acceptable if a "blood bond" is made. In that case, the Beast can no longer shy away from the smell of the person who made the contract.

But meeting beasts and humans is not an easy thing to do for either race.

Dark Elves and Elves are at odds and are never compatible with werewolves (Wolfrim) and dogs (Dogrims), even though they are a species of the same origin and only receive the blessings of different gods. If humans and beasts were different, there would no longer be conflict, but contempt.

Sakuya wonders if Dick cared about these things, predicting that he would think of them.

But Sakuya is not distracted from such things.

If a 'bad man' is using a Beast to gain a unilateral benefit, he can't pass it on.

Sakuya hates' bad people '. At the same time, it is a little joy to find the "good man".

(In that way, I also distinguish people. If the world had been equal and average, you would have seen more different scenery)

While thinking, Sakuya already turns to the back of the mansion, and looks at the tree near the building, and runs up the trunk without a sound, and up to the roof without difficulty.

I knew there was an attic from the outside. As he approached the small window in the attic, Sakuya noticed something unusual.

Already, after someone broke in from here. There were traces of windows that would have been chained and sealed from the outside, which were torn apart and forced open by someone.

Wesen - not even humans - can do this kind of power trick, but if you don't use Reinforcement Magic like Dick, it's hard to rip off steel chains with bare hands.

(... it's possible that the intruder is still inside. But I'm not human... and then...)

Sakuya felt the risk, but was somewhat prepared to fight. Challenge the magic "Oborogasmi" that Nullifies Physical Attacks to deal with enemy attacks. It is a magic unique to the Moon Rabbit, not a technique as an Explorer.

Open the window and stand inside. Sakuya's red eyes can see things regardless of the situation near true darkness, and with sharp hearing, they can accurately grasp the space from the echoes of subtle sounds.

Sometimes they think it's a species born to be a bandit. But Dick said he could rely on it when diving into dark labyrinths and ruins.

--And now her abilities are helping to spot the beast killing the signs, right next door.

"... are you being noticed? But it doesn't matter, because we're not attacking all of a sudden, apparently for the same reason."

It was the Werewolves who lurked in the darkness. Not so young, but not so old.

They also looked like bandits, but Sakya decided it wasn't his real job. Bandits basically fight with daggers and the like, but werewolf men do martial arts and appear unconscious in their appearance.

"I didn't think there were any customers. It doesn't look like you've been robbed."

"No, I'm done looking. Just knowing that you were here is enough... you're leaving now. I'm going to kill everyone in this mansion. You don't want to get involved."

What a man is looking for - Sakuya looks around the room and gets the material to guess it.

In the attic room were thrown away some blankets that someone had been using.

Taken together, I can easily imagine what was going on here. Several beasts were imprisoned here.

"Can you give me a minute to talk? I'm here for a purpose, so I can't just follow what you say."

"You seem to be out of your mind, so I guess I imagined it. The goods dealt with in this Chamber are" The Beast Man himself ". I'm looking for... my daughter was here, too. Has it been sold or relocated for fear of getting stuck? Either way, the Galamdoors must be rewarded."

"The Galamdoor Chamber of Commerce should be dealing with 'rare animals'. I'm not dealing with slaves... even though it looks that way."

"Outward-facing. But they are buying the Beast that the Adventurers and bandits have captured to sell as slaves. That's true."

Sakuya draws a conclusion from Dick's reasoning and the truth he saw here.

But in order to prove it, there is one piece of evidence that we must have.

"If we kill the people in this mansion, we cannot guarantee the safety of your searcher."

"... are you going to tell me to calm down? Choose a word. Things have already happened, and I have a reason to retaliate. My daughter was just interested in a human town and was deceived and grabbed by these chambers of commerce."

"Nobody said that. They will be rewarded for what they did. That's what I'm saying, don't make it any easier by killing them. A living hell exists in this world."

A werewolf man opens his eyes. Because words came out of the mouth of a woman who imagined it was non-warlike from her calm narrative and appearance.

Her words contain much deeper antagonisms towards human beings than herself. The man couldn't help feeling that way.

"... if I listen to you, is there any chance that my daughter will come back safely?

"Yes. At least let them swim a little, rather than committing murder here and strengthening their vigilance. The guilt of the Galamdoor Chamber of Commerce should be publicly prosecuted and brought to justice. To do that, we have to get proof."

"Evidence... if they're selling Wesen, there 'll be as many traces left in this mansion."

"No, they only deal in 'rare animals'. Doesn't your daughter have the ability to beast?

Some veterinarian tribes with a veterinization capability tend to hide it.

Those with veterinary abilities have undergone ancestral regression and are considered to be of the same lineage as the "pure blood species". They are subject to respect from the clan, but may also be subject to rivalry between the villages of the same lineage of beasts, hoping to incorporate their blood.

"... do you think humans find value in pureblooded beasts?

"No, it's not. Beast humans will become like 'rare animals' to them. Then the value of the product jumps....."

"After the beast, the daughter can always return to her original state. You can't treat animals like that. Even if it was sold as-is, they soon realized it was a beast....."

The man stopped talking as if he had noticed something.

"You're supposed to notice right away, but you're not. That's why false signs such as animal merchants are passing by. The way it was made possible should always be hidden here."

Sakuya assures me. The man answered nothing for a while and picked up one of the falling blankets.

That must be what his daughter used. When the man let go of the blanket, he put his fist on his forehead to pray for something.

"... what's your name? I'm Gustave. Gustave Wolfgang of the werewolf tribe."

"I'm called... Sakuya."

I see. It turns out that there is something strange about it, and there is something about it that has the same purpose. I'll let you follow me here. "

"Yes, we need to investigate unaware, but do you have any covert technology?

"You'll be inferior, but no one will notice. You might look like an unreliable old man."

A man named Gustave has the strength of an A rank. Sakuya, who decided that it would be all right for him to cooperate, decided to ask only one last question before commencing an investigation into the interior of the Mansion.

"What did you do with the dog outside?

"I just glanced and ran away. You can't beat a wolf with a dog you've been tamed to."

The man who was supposed to have been driven by anger and killed earlier laughs with a smile. Sakuya thinks he's a kind father.

(Hopefully, his daughter will be safe)

Sakuya puts her hand on her chest and touches the necklace from above the jacket.

Live a peaceful life without being persecuted by all beasts. It was a dear wish for her.

And thank Dick for giving me the job of saving the Beast all the time. Sakya left the attic and went down to the second floor hallway of the Mansion, feeling again that there was no doubt about his sight.
