"Well, do you have a request that sounds interesting..."

The face of The Red Vow, looking at the request board with an angry dialog when a lower hunter who is being chased by his daily life hears it.

Last time it was intimately related, and I can afford a bit of money, so I wanted to do something interesting and unusual, rather than simply working, this time around.

But such an arrogant dialogue with my utmost cannot be made very heard by a party that cannot afford money. It is imperative to piss off what you intend. If Miles says it in an expression he has heard in his previous life, it is something like 'Even Gandhi helps and beats the level'.

Fortunately, however, the words went through without being heard, and the Lenas continued to look straight at the board.

"Oh, this..."

On that mile of words, three Lennas who feel ready to see.

Yes, indeed, this was also the case when I found the request for a rock lizard......

And on the requisition form Miles points to, it said:

"Wyburn Crusade Reward, Thirty Gold Coins"

"" "" I got it. Ah!

This was the first time I had seen Wyburn's crusade request. This area is a little far from Wyburn's habitat, and if you miss this opportunity, you don't know when you'll be able to make your way to Wyburn's crusade request next. I didn't miss this.

"... it's better if you stop..."

To the words of the receptionist, and also the four Lenas who feel ready to see.

Yes, indeed, even when I tried to get a request for a rock lizard, it was like this...

"No, you already know what we're capable of!

"No, even if I said so..."

Not to mention Lena's high-pressure attitude, the receptionist tried to persuade her.

"First, we need to pull Wyburn off the ground in order to crusade Wyburn. To do this, we need a means of ranged attack that is powerful enough to drop the Wyburn, fast, has a high accuracy of hitting, and reaches a distance toward the sky. The majority of the parties will not meet this condition and will be forbidden from ordering."

"Three of us are magicians, and that's not a problem because we can all use powerful attack magic!

Through Lena's objections, the receptionist continued the conversation.

"And even if you could do some damage, Wyburn would run away"

"" "" Eh... ""

"Nothing, I'm not fighting until I'm willing to die, is Wyburn? If you feel disadvantaged and in danger, then you'll run away. And you don't come out of the nest for the time being.

Even if you come out after quite a while, you won't be near where you were attacked for the time being. The hunting range of Wyburn is wide. Besides, the humans who did harm to themselves seem to remember, and elsewhere, they never come close to the hunters who once fought and were badly hit. And... "

"And?"

"In the first place, of the hunting grounds of Wyburn, which spans dozens of kilometres, where do you intend to meet?

"" "" Eh... ""

Four "Red Vows" with their mouths pounding.

"I don't come to attack the same village every day. If you think you've stuck around for a long time and finally met and fought hard, and your buddies were killed or seriously injured and did a lot of damage, you can just get away with it. And then we'll never come close to ourselves again. Waste a long number of days, heavy damage, unsuccessful request assignment, payment of liquidated damages on the contrary without remuneration, dealing with fellow treatment costs and survivors......

Let's wonder why you still have that request if you want a reward for it. Otherwise, you can't live long, can you?

…………

To the silent four, the receptionist's explanation went on further.

"A request for caution that has been turned to the Wangdu branch because no one receives it in the guild branch of the local or surrounding towns, nor does the lord or royal palace try to get their hands on it. There's a lot of blood in my people, and my income and expenses are significantly negative. This is what I'm calling this request for...." Red Request ".

Only a fool or a beginner or a brave man gets this. "

At the end of the receptionist's explanation, the four of the "Red Vows" looked at each other.

And everyone snorted, and Lena told the receptionist on her behalf.

"Because of this, we will take this red request!

"Nah......! Did you hear my explanation right now? What the hell are you thinking..."

"Oh, isn't it your job to make me take the request?

"Knock..."

The receptionist, who accidentally bared her voice into Lena's words, swallowed the words, recalling her position.

"Duh, why are you taking such a request!

"Oh, why do you wonder? You said it yourself earlier."

"Huh?"

Lena taught the receptionist something that didn't make sense.

"That's because we're stupid, novice,... and brave!

Miles screamed from the side, approaching the outgoing receptionist.

"Hey, Mr. Lena! Why do you look at me when you say 'idiot'!

In the end, The Red Vow received a request for a Wyburn crusade.

The receptionist had no authority to refuse, at his discretion, a formal order that met the conditions, even if he could give advice. Not if there are just good reasons to refuse, or if there are just grounds to convince your boss, but this time none of them did. For this reason, the receptionist, who favoured the "Red Oath," processed the order with the thought of a severance.

"Well, let's say we go to the guild first"

On the fifth day from Wang Du, arriving in Hermort, the town that made the request for the Wyburn crusade, the 'Red Pledge' line headed for the Guild Branch for now. And when he told me at the reception that he had ordered a Wyburn crusade, after a short wait, he was led to the Guildmaster's room upstairs.

"... are you the hunters of the King's Capital who have been asked to crusade against Wyburn..."

That's what the Alliance Master said, looking discouraged and a little angry, he welcomed four of the "Red Vows" who were led into the room by the receptionist.

"You knew and received this request for a Wyburn crusade... Did you get a proper explanation from the guild staff in Wang Du?

I was in the room, and before I even said hello, the old guild master said that to me and I was a little muddled, but I thought it was probably not a mean word, but a word worried about the young girls of the new America, and everyone flushed the word without worrying.

"... If a hunter from Wang Du dies in vain, my ratings will drop. That too, if you let four good-looking young women die, they'll slap you in the pussy all over the place, what can you do!

…………

... Apparently, it was my reputation I was worried about.

"We are the C-rank hunter's Red Vow, who was asked to crusade against Wyburn in Wang Du."

Lena answers instead as Mavis is silent under barometric pressure by the words of the Alliance Master.

It's a relatively low boiling point laner, but I'm about aware of how I look. So I recognize as much as the first person I meet sees me lightly on the outside. So I'm not mad about that much.

... not tolerant. I'm used to it. That's all. Besides, we have miles now. 'The only reason I'm seen lightly is because I have miles' was because of Lena's mental health, which was very good.

"What," The Red Vow "?

The Alliance Master looked a little surprised at Lena's words, which she introduced herself by listening to herself.

"You guys, um..."

Apparently, only rumors were heard. That's the mock fight on the graduation test, the bandit crusade, and the evil merchant......, no, the last one is not "The Red Pledge," but the mysterious party "Red Blood is fine! 'It doesn't matter because it's active..., of, I don't know how far.

Besides, the last one will be the flow of rumors from that town to the King's Capital, and even more from the King's Capital to the rest of the world, so it should still take some time for rumors to circulate among the public authorities and nobles.

"Well, I don't know what you're referring to, but we're the Red Vow."

Now Mavis answered. For once, party leaders are Mavis. Sometimes I almost forget...

"... for once, I've heard rumors about you. The magician's abilities, the swordsman's arms... You guys might be able to strike Wyburn or stab Wyburn in the face. But I don't know if I can do enough damage to get rid of it, and it could be a waste of my legs? After the damage, they just take the penalty..."

"Even so, because I've already ordered it!

The Alliance Master laughs bitterly at the words of miles, and so does that.

Afterwards, the face of The Red Pledge received a detailed description of the request from the Alliance Master, who admitted he was not a regular new American hunter. The outline was explained in the Guild Branch of Wangdu, but the request document was a simplified description of the outline only, and there was new information from the preparation of the request to later, asking various questions in detail. This kind of work is originally the role of the receptionist, but the matter is an important request, and a request has been made here from Hermort Branch to Wang Capital. In other words, the "Red Oath" was a direct response from the Alliance Master, as it stands as if it had been sent from other Alliance branches that received requests for assistance from the Hermort branch. Still, after the Alliance Master usually responded to some degree, the details are normal for the receptionist to take over, but apparently the Alliance Master was interested in the "Red Vow," an unusual "Alliance Master explains to the end" situation. And the content is a little stinky, and the Alliance Master is telling me honestly without hiding it, but the look on everyone's face in The Red Vow is getting more and more dangerous...

"... I'll tell you a story."

After pulling up from the guild, the face of The Red Vow takes a room for four at the inn and meets about what's to come in the room. Moderator, as usual, is Lena.

"First of all, this time the client is, lord. But you don't have to worry because the lord just gives you a reward and you throw a round at the guild when it comes to what you're asking for. He doesn't even need to see his client."

Around there, I hear it from the Alliance Master. The lord did not intend to meet the hunter style, the lower bitch, and so on. That's very normal. Count Amros, the lord of those bandits, is a little more heretical, such as when the nobles deliberately meet with the hunters.

For everyone in The Red Vow, that's easier. I'm not tired of meeting with nobles, as much as Mavis is used to doing that. Miles, too, had only about the time the other day as Earl Amros had the experience of talking to and meeting with non-family aristocrats, and conversations with aristocrats were forced to tension, as awareness in previous life was at the centre. It did not seem so from the others, but was nevertheless nervous by the mile. Classmates in school were usually dealt with, albeit aristocratic, but it is, and this is,.

"The damage is about 30% of this territory and part of the neighborhood. The neighbors are mostly on the edge of the damaged area, and the majority of the damages are on this side of the border, so leave it to me that this side of the border will handle it. If you're a lord, you're making the right decision. It's a bad idea to waste your territory's soldiers and budget."

Three snorts.

The three other people besides Lena, of course, had heard the Guildmaster's explanation, but it is important to put it into words and confirm it again in these meetings. It reduces mistakes, can tune everyone's flow of thought, and facilitates discussion.

"... so the problem is, this is it"

That's what Lena spread out on the table, she got it from the Alliance Master, a copy of the material.

A brief map of this territory and its neighbors shows the villages and sightings attacked by Wyburn, filled in with their dates and times.

It was generally concentrated within a circle. That's good. It is very normal. But......

"That's crazy..."

"Yeah, that's a little unnatural"

"It's a little different from the general theory of Wyburn's ecology that we heard in Wang Du..."

As Pauline, Mavis, and Miles put it, there was something a little strange about that Wyburn appearance material.

Firstly, the emergence range is rather narrow compared to that of the common Wyburn. If Wyburn rarely appears around here, the territorial feud is irrelevant. It is normal to hunt for prey more extensively.

And the range of appearances, they draw a beautiful circle.

No, drawing circles is normal in itself. In this dossier, however, the circle was too beautifully drawn. Normally, this was too beautiful a circle where it was just a little more fragmented and "roughly, a distribution close to a circle".

And the extreme was the date and time of its appearance.

Exactly.

Wyburn appears too precisely and regularly in the same village or street stronghold.

Even so, Wyburn appears in different places by day of the week, as if he knows the calendar used by humans.

Suspicious, of course. Obviously suspicious.

But the face of The Red Vow was not the only thing that made me suspicious about Wyburn.

"Naturally, other hunters have noticed this, and many groups of parties have been ordered to cite, annihilate, or devastate. That's, well, that's what happens. A lack of strength on the part of hunters, or Wyburn being a powerful individual...... But if it's relatively easy to encounter..."

"There will be a leader, normal..."

Pauline squealed like that in response to Lena's words.

Yes, the major reason why there are no leaderships on the Wyburn crusade was the difficulty of encountering them.

Moving large numbers of soldiers for decades requires a lot of money. And if you end up empty, you consume all your budget and have zero results. If the capture rate is extremely low, it was not the person for the lord to want to get his hands on.

But if you're saying you have a pretty good chance of encountering it, then the story is different.

Preventing damage to territory, training soldiers in action, appealing to the strong against other territories, as well as appealing to the royal palace and increasing loyalty of the people as "good lords, doing what they do for the people". Some soldier damage and budget consumption have as much merit as they can tolerate. If he leaked and fled, he would no longer show up in that village, and he got rid of it, which would be quite an appeal.

Yet why hasn't the leadership come out when there are so many regular appearance materials......

"I don't have a lead, for any reason..."

To Mavis' words, the mileage continues.

"... or, out, but already defeated and hiding it...?

Between the four of us, silence spread.
