Early the next morning, I left the inn earlier than usual morning workouts and headed for the Adventurer's Guild.

The meeting time was early today, so I haven't been able to train in the morning and it seems a little short.

By the way, I didn't mean to, but after I left the inn for a while, I already wore a mask in an unpopular alley.

For this reason, as I approach the Adventurer Alliance, I see those who appear to be adventurers in this city who have found me talking about me in secret.

However, with all my abilities improving, I also hear the whole story of talking to that whisper...

"Hey... that's a rumor..."

"Oh, you're absolutely right. That's what I'm wearing."

"If I hadn't known about the rumors of" The Masked Adventurer, "I might have put an extra bite on it. Absolutely. Absolutely."

(Me, can I go home now...)

I spill stupidity unintentionally in my heart, but of course I can't really go home, so I pretended not to notice and kept knocking at the Alliance door.

When I entered the Adventurer's Guild, a moment of stirring occurred, and Lomena, who noticed me, jumped out of the reception counter.

"Oh, I've been waiting for you! Masked adventurer, there is going to be an operational meeting in this room, so let me show you around!

With the effect of the cover-up granted to the mask, everything that characterises me now is vaguely recognized, and the only thing that seems to impress me is the mask (...).

This seems to be because I've never experienced it before, so I don't know.

When I have the Demon Sword, the effect of the Demon Sword's curse is high and other curses are deactivated, but I have found that even if I do not have the Demon Sword, I am hardly affected by the curse.

I still don't know the detailed reason, but Yuina said it was because of her ability to boost, or because she had been under a high-ranking curse for years.

"Oh, please. For once, this is the guild card."

That's what I said and gave to Lomena is, of course, my guild card as an A-rank first-degree adventurer as a 'masked adventurer'.

"Oh, excuse me. Let me confirm!

I would have to ask Lomena to present my guild card, but I would have trouble showing up fake or something if I didn't make sure I was properly identified.

In order to appeal around it, I dared to present my guild card in everyone's attention...

"Let me confirm! Masked Adventurer # 1 (...) Sir!

"Buh!?

"What?"

Inside, he said, "Don't say number one!!," he holds down his desire to yell, shaking his head if it's nothing.

Whatever you think, No. 1 is supposed to be Uina, but no, I just want to urge you not to put 'No. 1' or something on your guild card before then, but when you received it, you said, "I needed to distinguish you two..." and it was a failure to say it back.

I compromised because I wouldn't show my guild card to anyone else anyway, but this could spread the rumor that I'm number one...

At the very least, the salvation is due to the masked effect, and I can hardly recognize myself.

"Excuse me! Master Masked Adventurer # 1 (...) has been brought to you!

"Ugh!?

It tasted bad, I accidentally got a weird voice......

Nor did I realize I was suffering psychological damage, and Lomena showed me inside with her permission.

The room was the largest conference room, with about ten people already seated inside.

"Hmm? This is... awesome..."

"Mr. Donnack? What's the matter, sir?

"Oh, no, it's nothing. Master Masked Adventurer, come here."

Perhaps Donnack, who knows who I am, was surprised to see me in my current state, which I can't recognize well due to the effect of cover-up.

"Excuse me. I won't reveal my identity for a reason, so it would be helpful if you just called me a 'masked adventurer'. I'm going to follow your instructions because I'm going to be a part of this crusade quickly. Regards."

Yuina tells me that when I'm wearing a mask, I try not to hang around a little bit.

When I finish saying hello even though I don't think I'm used to it yet, I take the recommended seat.

"Heh - Demonic props or something? You're doing great."

When I got to my seat, the man who was silently watching over me called out.

The man looked familiar.

(Only yesterday...)

"Lux, you're rude! Excuse me! We're from an advanced adventurer party called 'Red Fang'. I'm Laura, the one with the bad mouth was Lux, the one with the silent mouth over here is Denmark, and the girl next to it is Sheila."

While I am surprised by these two and their coincidences, I return the words immediately.

"Never mind. Nice to meet you."

Then, now a man dressed in guard gear, who was next to 'Red Fang', spoke.

"Is it the flow of introducing yourself? I say I'm a platoon leader in this city's guard, Thakkai. It's an honor to hear that you can fight with a rumored hero this time."

Returning the same greeting to Thakkai, the man next to him follows.

"Excuse me. If it's true, I was in the first position to say hello, but it's getting late. I am the word of an Alliance official who will be in charge of this crusade operation. The other participants in this meeting are getting ready, so the operation meeting will be held with this member."

Then, after Donnack greeted me like I had just said it was the first time, the conversation began.

"Now, this operation..."

The operation was always orthodox.

An Adventurer Party on Support examines a thin number of locations and destroys the demons we receive reports of.

Thereafter, once you leave the scene, and look at a small number of places, repeat the annihilation.

In this way, the number of demons was reduced to the point where it was reduced, and then the total force was set up at the end.

I don't mind the operation itself, but I was concerned.

That's what I heard yesterday about no second-degree adventurers.

However, because it is unnatural for me to know that the adventurers of the city of Oisler will participate as masked adventurers, I was not asked.

Then, it wouldn't have absorbed my feelings, but Lux from "Red Fang" asked me.

"By the way, what happened to the high ranking Ouisler adventurer I was hearing rumors about?

Then, while Mr. Word wiped his sweat with a handkerchief,

"... Actually, I would have gotten to this city yesterday, but I was out of touch..."

That's when I started talking.

Suddenly I wondered if the door had opened up well and Lomena jumped in.

"Ha, my God! There's Ouissler's, me, the adventurer who was out of touch! I, the adventurer, the man..."

I don't know what happened, but I talk to Lomena about disturbing her breathing and not speaking well, so Donnack can calm down.

"What's going on? Lomena, don't panic. Just take a deep breath and talk calmly."

I finally open my mouth again when I take a big, deep breath as I'm told.

"That, by the street near Solal... its remains have been discovered!
