Bornter's life helps. But other than that, I will not consider it. Galahat nods with disapproval at Ray for telling him so.
Of course, it was not exactly acceptable to Galahat himself. You can say you love him. Bornter's life is at stake. Even if it's a one-way street, neglected from the other side.
(But... if I refuse Ray's suggestion here, as I said myself, I will be alone in a raid on Bornter. And the strength of Ray and his partner, Griffon. I don't think if this one and one of them raids me, I can counteract the Azotto Chamber of Commerce side, which has only low-ranking adventurers in quantity over quality. Or if you mean fighting squarely from the front, you might be able to handle it through exhaustion and out of magic, but the Rays are only one and one. There is nothing we can do if we are thoroughly acted upon by surprise raids at night. Then you just have to let me put my hands together and just protect my worst brother's life)
Think inside, swallow depressed thoughts.
Why did this happen? I don't think so either. But everything that's happening now is happening to me by my beloved brother. Then even if only half of the blood is connected, I'll have to make Better's choice, although I'm not the best brother. Galahat, who decided so, reluctantly accepted Ray's suggestion.
"Come in. First, let me know what's going on."
Galahat, who moves from the front of the door and welcomes four people into the room.
The room was of some size compared to the cabin above. But still, if you ask me if I can slow down as many as four people, that's only a no.
Anyway, it was originally assumed that this safe house would only be used by two people, Galahat and Mult. Only one simple bed existed in a room about three tatami sizes, and one other chair. It's narrow and painful to get just five people into a room like that. So much so that the salvation at least is that Ray is a small physique and Fron is a woman and quite skinny? If it was meant to be, Brasso could have joined that side of the group because of its low back, but somehow it's just Dwarves and it's short, but the muscles are attached more than humans. So Brasso was classified as Galahat, Mult's side.
"Damn, I feel narrow because I have muscle mastery like you. Turn the muscle into gold meat for a change. I'll help you."
"Oh, my God, this abrasion! The Lord is the one who sold off his wasted age and became a 20-year-old! That way we can have a little bit of Hua in this room."
Everyone sat in a chair, in a bed, on the floor, and Galahat had no choice but to admire that statement, which had suddenly happened where he exhaled.
Ray opens his mouth with a sigh of sigh watching the two of them look like they were frightened.
"I know you guys are close, so just keep it around. Galahato's scared too."
It was two of them looking to Chirali and Galahat for Ray's words, but Galahat does open his eyes and see how the two are doing.
You just can't wait to see that gaze anymore, or Fron coughs up small and sits back in the chair.
There's only one chair in this safe house, but I first occupied it by claiming that I was a woman.
Note that Galahat is sitting in bed sometimes because his injuries have not completely healed yet, and Mult sits next to him as Galahat's assistant. As a result, only two people were sitting on the floor, Ray and Brasso.
"Cohon. So, as things stand... Mult?
"Uh, yes, yes. The status quo is unfavourable to us after all. Those who have been turned into absenteeism for once in opposition to Bornter's management policy are to cooperate with Mr Gallahato. However, since it doesn't make any difference that way is mainstream..."
"Right. Seems like you shouldn't think it's possible to drag your brother down from the seat of your head in peace."
There are also a number of adventurers on the Bornters, but they follow the other side because they are purely employers, except for the very few. Unless there's something to cover it up, there won't be many of us on our side. Galahat sighs judging so. At the same time, there were fears in that sigh that the same adventurers had to hurt each other.
"Right. We're losing out on the force, so if you really want to drag Bornter down from the seat of your meeting and Mr. Galahat will be at the top of the Azot Chamber of Commerce, there's only a strong way. I think it would be the easiest and most time-consuming way to say that those who cooperate with Mr. Galahato will stop and secure the movements of the executives who are currently moving the Azot Chamber of Commerce. If the power shift goes smoothly, there will naturally be less time to contend, so Mr. Galahato said it will take minimal collision between adventurers who are worried…"
"Did you say that?
Fron asks with a strange face to that word as if it were an indication that it was not his opinion.
Mult nods naturally to such a fron question.
"There's no way I can even set up such a fine operation, is there? As I said earlier, the members of the Chamber of Commerce who are working with Mr. Galahat have thought about this."
"... I see. Well, I'm sure the shorter the battle time, the less likely the adventurer will get hurt."
"Right, so do those who like to fight... well, I'm not saying they're not there, but I'm pretty sure they're a minority. Mult, is your brother currently in a mansion in the aristocratic district?
"Yes. Anyway, it's a mansion that I don't like. They must have plenty of defense equipment."
"Could there be a trap or something in the mansion?
Ray asked with a disgusting face, but Galahat shakes his head small.
"I wouldn't do anything to trap you inside the mansion. Or if you do that, you'll be in danger and unable to live in the mansion. They don't, they make the walls and fences that surround the mansion with rugged, unbreakable metal."
"Wouldn't it be a problem if those walls and fences jumped over the top? There were a small number of people here. There should be no problem if Seto goes back and forth. It's probably the heaviest of them all, Brasso, but a short distance would do it."
"I can't do that. Sure, there's no such thing as a trap in the mansion, but if it's a fence or a fence, it's not a story. Bandits and others could break in. My brother's ready for that."
Galahat did not say any more, but only the mansion inhabited by a meeting of the Azotto Chamber of Commerce, which is in strong business, had several times before been seen underfoot by bandits of fornication and people like them in business or who had entered into unfavourable deals, in return for their interest, tried to hire thugs and adventurers to sneak them in. But most of them have been caught around the aristocratic city, or they have been found paralyzed by the effect of electric shocks on walls and fences, which are also a kind of magic item, and have been tied to the ground.
Of course, when it comes to making the vast mansion itself covered with a fence or fence of magic items, it costs a huge amount of money. It was the financial power of the Azot Chamber of Commerce and the power of Bornter that made it possible. Anyway, the city of this guilm is a periphery, with many dangers. Whoever spares money for his equipment must pay the price for it with his own life. The profits to be gained from exporting weapons to other cities using scarce monster materials that are available to store that arms deal, or because of the periphery, are enormous. We use that enormous amount of money to root it out and to bribe people for a variety of conveniences. If those powers are used to root out, it is likely that the group of chimps who have pushed us into the inn tonight, for example, or the adventurers who have hit Seto in the stables, will not be immediately innocent and liberated...... but will do so with a light fine or so.
"After all, is there only a frontal breakthrough? Well, I'm not saying I can't. Whatever, Bornter... rather than being hired by the Azot Chamber of Commerce, the highest-ranked adventurer is you, the rank B, right? All the rest are below rank B. I mean, even if it's high, it's rank C. There are roughly 40 such adventurers. Then we can't do anything about it."
It was Ray who grumbled to say it was nothing, but there's someone to hang on to. It is Galahat, who is also the central figure in this disturbance.
"Wait. Sure enough, if Ray can take that much of a blow, he won't have to deal with the adventurers hired by the Azot Chamber of Commerce from the front. But as I said earlier, there are many people who are hired purely for money to follow on the other side. I don't want you to get hurt too much against someone like that if you can."
"No, so the way you minimized that is the guy who ends the fight in a short period of time with a frontal breakthrough, right? Are you conflicted with what you're saying?
Galahat nods as he gives Fron's words a look like he chewed up a bitter bug.
"Oh. Of course I know I can't. But think about it. Suppose here you defeated most of the adventurers over there and settled the commotion. But in that case, what about the escort of the merchants to the other cities that the Azotto Chamber of Commerce is sending out tomorrow?
"It's a guild... oh, you're right"
Fron exhales.
The current Alliance has a widespread reputation for the Azotto Chamber of Commerce, and few are escorted. It's probably because even the adventurers who are employed by the Azotto Chamber of Commerce are paid well, but they're only hired. In other words, if anyone other than the adventurers currently employed by the Azot Chamber of Commerce were asked if they would be escorted by the merchants again, Galahat, who knew the reality, would have to lean his neck.
Alternatively, if you lower the rank of the request more and recruit in rank F or rank G, the number of people will gather in large numbers. However, it is more likely that it cannot be calculated as a force in the first place at a rank to the extent that it has finally emerged from the beginner. There may be talented people in there, but that's a chance of about one in dozens or hundreds.
Did you find out what Galahat was trying to say, Fron punches his tongue.
"But then what are we going to do? If you can't defeat your opponent in the middle of nowhere, you'll end up with more time to fight and that's all you'll get injured, right?
"... oh. That's why I want to ask Ray. Surely we will rely on Ray. But if I can, I don't want you to seriously injure him over there. Killing is naturally rejected."
"Do I need to be so considerate? I've already told you a few times, but honestly, even one of me can already solve this case. And you want me to go out of my way to help you fight with your own hands and feet tied?
"Do something there... please!
Galahat coming head down deep.
Ray thinks for a few seconds looking at that galahat like it was trouble...... eventually opens his mouth.
"Well, if you want, you can take it."
"Is that true! Okay. Do that. How about two white gold coins for the reward?
"Huh!?
It was Mult who was listening next to Galahat who raised his surprise at the amount of the reward.
2 platinum coins. That's not what you see in the D-rank, which is Ray and Mult's current rank.
"Fine. But all I can do is make it easy. You can't imitate everyone with a minor injury, and even if you say a minor injury in the first place, you'll be allowed to have a fracture."
Because there is a method of healing in this world called magic, it is only a matter of minutes before a bruised injury can be healed. It won't be that hard to recover on the spot if you try to be a good wizard with arms, even for the fracture Ray said. But naturally, to magically heal a fracture injury, it drains magic power accordingly, so it cannot be used continuously many times. Or something like a potion or a magic potion... but a potion that can heal a fracture in a short period of time is worth the price, and a potion that restores magic is even more expensive.
"I don't mind. If my gut hurts like I do, it'll take a while to heal, but anything with a fractured bone will do."
"Okay, you've decided to talk. Shall we go out as soon as possible then? Anyway, there was too much going on today. Exactly, I'm getting tired too, so I want to clean up quickly and get some sleep in my soft bed."
Fron stretches as he recollects what happened to Fury Tao in one day today.
It's not even been a day since I crusaded Harpy. I guess I'm just getting tired of saying I took a few hours of sleep in the meantime. Thinking of the ultimate luxury in some ways, of devouring inebriation with a warm futon, Fron just rose to the point that this was his last job.
He turns his gaze to such a fron that Galahat also rises again.
"Mr. Galahat? What?"
Mult, who was next door, asks strangely, but Galahat opens his mouth as he ascertains his physical condition so that it is nothing.
"You're dragging your brother down. What's wrong? I need to go to the crime scene."
"Hey! Mr. Galahato is not ready to fight yet! Even though we have to give them a break and not kill them..."
"I guess so. But it would be awkward without me there when I dragged my brother down from the seat of my head."
To that word of Galahat, a small line of frowning.
It's true that when we do something about Bornter, it's different from not having Galahat on the spot. But...
"You want me to take you with me for that?
"... please"
Galahat and Ray staring at each other for about a few seconds. It was Ray who eventually missed his gaze.
"Do as you please. But protect yourself.... No, Mult. Even if you're the Guardian of Galahat. Even though the factions are different or something, they are among the adventurers employed by the Azot Chamber of Commerce. If you fight from the front, there's a chance you'll get caught later."
"... sorry"
Galahat said so briefly, and the policy was set, and he quickly and only headed to the aristocratic district.
