Immortal Sage

The merchants will proceed this evening with plans to reach the border between the Coral Kingdom and the Las Gakan Empire.

"There's nothing you need to escort..."

And Kodama is blurry, but if there is such a dangerous situation, there is no way the merchant army will operate...

We're supposed to be having a different party, so I can't scratch it, so I'm gonna keep my mouth shut.

"Our existence is only insurance!

And I can't help but want to scratch!

'I know how you feel...'

Holly next door whispers.

You can't help but want to scratch Holly...

Or are bandit and demonic raids frequent and commonplace in the Danatos Empire?

Sizka and the others told me that there are lots of mountains and lots of flatlands in island countries, but there are lots of bandits and pirates?

Well, we won't be visiting the Danatos Empire, so it's no use worrying.

"I see it. That will be the border post with the Rasgakan Empire!

Carldon (tentatively), the leader of the merchant squad, raises his voice as he points to the location he sees first.

We'll be guild cards for the Adventurers Guild, but we need to show this to the gendarmerie, so get ready.

"Don't get the wrong name."

I know, Mr. Ark.

Remembering yesterday, Mark is bluefing.

Mark was [Ark], Julia was [Leena], Holly was [Madeleine], and Chris was [Raina]...

"Rand, shut up Madeleine!

My name is [Rand].

I don't remember Kagami's name because I barely talked to Shizka and the others so I don't give out the bollocks.

It's unnatural not to introduce ourselves when we talk to each other.

"You're just having trouble remembering."

Julia...... no, Leena shut up!

While Carldon is in the merchant squad process at the precinct, our escort adventurer shows his guild card to complete the immigration process.

There's no way the Adventurer Guild is counterfeiting the Guild ID, so our Guild ID was forged by the Intelligence that Grid belongs to.

Our heads know that our guild cards will not be found to be counterfeited, but we are still nervous because we have been counterfeiting our guild cards quite a few times for intelligence agents who arrive on these assignments.

"Welcome to the Las Gakans Empire"

I enter the country feeling a little guilty for the good gendarmerie of someone who just passed me by looking at my guild card.

Well, that's not what we can do about authentic appraisals of guild cards prepared by national intelligence...

From here on out, we will go to the Imperial Capital while burying demonic stones for transfer in the cities and villages where we stop.

If you don't distract Carldon and the others because you've served more than half of your purpose, you'll be in danger.

Until we get to Imperial City, we will be escorts of the merchant army led by Carldon.

I'm talking to the grid, but I won't be involved in their intelligence work since we got to the Imperial City.

We have no obligation to rescue Carldon and his men in the unlikely event of discovery of their intelligence operations.

That's the opposite position.

For that reason, Carldon and the others have not been informed about us [Black Wolf].

It seems ruthless, but we cannot prioritize our emotions in a situation that does not lead to a national crisis.

"Thank you for waiting, [Soul Blood Alliance] and [Red Lotus Tornado]!

Procedures as a merchant team can take a considerable amount of time, as there is also a toll tax.

Looks like we're about an hour behind the adventurer's end and Carldon and the others are done.

I know you're paying attention to this Yarrow because he kept you waiting, but don't call that party name out loud!

Your surrounding eyes are so warm!

What are we going to do with an undercover operative noticeably!?

Grid Yarrow, are you a really good intelligence agent!?

Is it a mistake to expect that subordinate Carldon!?

... I still have something to say, but let's get going.

"See how I feel a little bit?

'... let it go, you frenzied prince!

I get angry with the mark on the Doya face, so I hit eight, but the degree of Doya face increases if the reaction is satisfactory.

Since yesterday, there's no doubt that the grid is responsible for our [Black Wolf] air.

This is what's happening because the settings that Yarrow prepared are 'too shy'!

'Cause you guys were playing with Mark!

... Isn't that caused by the grid too?

'Cause of you and your child magician there!

Holly, who was treated like a child by Mark, seemed beautiful, but is desperately stopping while Chris suppresses Holly's mouth.

With the blood rising on my head, I'm sure I'm trying not to mouth anything extra...

Both Sizka and Carldon are watching us in silence with a frightened look...

In the end, we were the ones who stood out the most.

- But the real cause is definitely the grid!!
