"There's a demon over there! Deal with it!
"Leave it to me, Naserie, the chant is already over! Enchanted Magic Boost! Earth Barrett!
"Sarasu is Argus! Kill him instantly!
A young man with a book of magic guides with a woman of the Dog Beast will collaborate, overhauling and completing the herd of Lesser Cerberus, a demon that a team of Class B adventurers are supposedly dealing with.
On that day, the little boy, who had continued his magic training in an unnamed village, grew up to be a youth, not all of the great nations, but a class A adventurer, not least of the adventurers, who knew.
Yes, he was well on his first steps toward dreaming.
Sometimes we head to the winged settlement and exorcise the flock of Wyburn that was tormenting them.
Also at one point he dealt with a dark organization that repeatedly leaps in town, scratching it up with Nasery, who is tag teaming up, and selling his name.
After leaving the village, his fast-forward march did not know where to stop, and he was given his calm and thought, his high strength to his title, to be whispered.
And among the many manipulations and obtaining all sorts of magic, "Lockhart" is the two names given to him who especially prefers to use the magic of earthlineage.
In addition to the honor officially given to him by the Adventurer Guild, he was named Argus Lockhart.
"Ugh, I wonder if this completes the crusade of the requested Lesser Cerberus. After all, even a B-class demon can get tough as soon as it becomes a herd. Collaboration was also helpful. No, but the next one would be more..."
"Me too! Because that's how you immerse yourself in analysis right away! You just have to win, like this! Too nervous, Argus."
I joke and laugh at that thinking power, which can be both his strengths and weaknesses.
She and I have been helped more than once by the information stored by analyzing it that way, and it was a light-hearted word to say because we see him fail again at the same time.
"That's not going to happen. I happen to have outgrown this one this time, but if this is someone stronger than us, we have to assume we run away this time. It should be well worth considering every situation. It's not just for this one."
The fact that he answers the joke with a most serious look is also the same as him when it comes to being like him from a long time ago.
But the look on Argus's face, who speaks that way, looked more serious than usual somewhere.
Naturally, you can't possibly not notice Nasery, who has been dating for a long time about it.
"I knew I cared about that rumor"
"Naturally. Lately there has been a campaign of subhuman oppression not only in this town, but throughout the country. Now that I still have my status as an A-level adventurer, it's okay, but... if that damage becomes to Nasery, that's the only way I need to look at escaping to other continents. This request also includes the implications I received for the investigation."
It's been more than five years since he left the village, but in less than the past year, the country has suddenly become suspicious.
Did it also affect that it was shortly after the King replaced him, when he began to set up human supremacy as a national government, and he hitched a ride to it and rode it to the church?
I don't know if this has happened gradually over the decades, but in just one year, it suddenly changed so far.
That's why Argus wondered if there was anything behind it.
Rumors were indulged under those assumptions, and the only conclusion reached after investigating the nomination requests given by the Adventurers Guild and the nature of the suspicious requests was that they were all commonly related to the Demons.
Of course there is no certainty.
Only after my personal investigation did I judge from the circumstances.
If this was obviously evidence that the Demons were involved, it would be that we could wave the major players and keep the masses and the Church on our side and denounce national politics.
"Demon tribe. Are you sure there's a demon clan? Isn't it just that the new king was tochi crazy?
"... even if there is no evidence, there are grounds. I knew I couldn't stay alert."
Even this request is true, he thinks.
First of all, Lesser Cerberus is not a demon who acts in herds, but a good, male and female.
In spite of this, this number was the target of this request, which we noticed as suspicious, and we have a few others on our mind.
It was an obvious anomaly.
Argus, who then warned, would return to the stronghold and use the demons he had hunted with Nasery as a basis for a direct trial against the Adventurer Guild Leader of each of its branches.
If this were a runaway low-ranking adventurer, he would have been kicked over or subjected to iron fist sanctions.
But he used the trust and track record he had built up to this day, and the position of his profession, "The Wise Man," which he discovered as he adventured.
"... and so to speak, gentlemen. There is a very good chance that the Demons are involved in this case, and maybe it's a crisis in this great country, no, on the continent. I was wondering if I should strike my hand as soon as possible."
"... Hmm"
The guild leaders of each branch look at each other and taste what Argus has to say.
Some believed because of the seriousness of the matter and the grounds upon which it was based, and others agreed that they were equally uncomfortable.
And he that is present, and he that is in doubt, was not alone.
"Guys! Argus Lockhart of (...) says this, if it works, now!
And despite my earlier suspicions, I don't doubt Naserie because she believes in Argus when she goes up to the stage.
She knows that Argus can never go wrong at a time like this.
Sometimes I make miscalculations, sometimes I don't think about it.
But I've never made a mistake when I was here.
"Okay. Let's make it an A-level adventurer and trust your opinion and deduction that you are a wise man."
"Right. If the Demon Clan is involved even with us, it doesn't always work the same way."
"Ruri. Besides, if the aim is to repress the whole subpeople, it doesn't show how much damage and tragedy can be done."
They snorted uniformly and decided to have the shoulders of up-and-coming hero Argus.
"Thank you all....... but be careful, the other demon tribe goes deep into the power bracket of this country and won't let it grab its own tail further. Instead of doing something about the demonic body first, we should put together a human species that we endorse and start an organization that can at least combat oppression."
I don't know how much demon tribe it is, but defeating it itself might be manageable if we align the mighty men of this continent.
But if they hide themselves and don't know who the enemy is, there's no way to hit them.
Therefore, priority will be given to strengthening the defense first, and we will continue to investigate and wait for the time to run out.
That was his operation.
Plus he goes on to say this.
"Fortunately, there are world-wide authoritative research institutes on both neighbouring continents that have friendly relations with this continent. The first step is to get in touch there and form an alliance in relation to the Demons. Gather heroes of each race in secret, the mighty, and beat them all at once where their power has gathered. … it may take some time, but this is the surest way to do it"
It was later the moment of the birth of a base known as the continent's highest research institute, the Hero's Nest, or the Anti-Magic Department on the anti-demonic tribe.
