Running Vihera was already past Seto and running at the beginning of the line.

A row down the narrow, winding road on the back street.

I almost ran into some of them, but Ray, Vihera, and Marina can all say they're top notch.

Lightly dodging the person he was about to bump into, Seto was going down the back street with actions like kicking the wall and dodging the target.

It's not a very, but incredible way to travel, if you normally think about it, but it still worked only this time.

"Grrrrrrrr!"

Seto running behind Vihera squeaks his throat sharply.

With such a settling, I knew my opponent was still fighting Bühne.

Stay put for a few seconds...... ten seconds is an unhanging amount of time and goes out where there is some breadth.

In that wide area, a woman I saw earlier in front of a branch of the Spiel Chamber of Commerce was facing Bühne.

Woman...... Kana has Rapier and Bhune has White Cloud in her hand.

We were watching each other's gaps, but naturally we'd notice if the Rays came in there like that.

"Shit, it's early!

Understanding that it was the Rays who came, Kana tries to get her left hand in the nostalgia... but that left hand is where it was pierced earlier by Bühne's long needle.

Long needles in the way of fighting have already been thrown down on the ground.

Büne also has a muscle slash wound on his cheek, but the wound on his cheek doesn't interfere with the fight.

But Kana, whose left arm was pierced with a long needle, the pain lasted for a moment... only a moment but slowed the movement down.

And it wasn't Beaune...... it wasn't a difficult story to narrow the distance at once if there was that moment of gap for Vihera, who was at the head of the Rays.

Before Kana's left hand, which was stretched out into his nostrils, was pulled out, his arm grabbed by Vihera's hand, which approached him just up close, forcing him to stop moving.

Originally, Kana specializes in assassinations using speed and covert actions.

If you dealt with Vihela fighting from the front, there was a difference in the original local power and there was no way you could have won.

"Grow up. You need to talk to me a lot.... and thank you for the scratch on Bühne's cheek."

"Pfft... Pfft... if that's enough to say scratches, my left arm is also scratched enough?

"Oh, yeah. But we are... hostile to the wings of the Red Lotus, but not much damage...?

Lift the left arm you were holding back with force.

Kana, too, is physically well trained as an assassin, even if she is a woman.

She also weighs heavier than a normal woman for what she has muscles on.

Nonetheless, Kana's body is lifted lightly with one hand… the next moment, she is slapped from her back on the ground.

(Bear one... That's a little too violent of a blow)

Ray, who was watching a series of moves, feels that way.

Despite his hostility with the assassins, he hasn't worried about Vihella at all, I guess, because he still understands his prowess.

Vihera said there was no way she could handle this level of opponent.

"Vihella, I need to talk to you, so you can talk to me."

The Marina speaks out without looking worried while watching such a vihella.

I naturally know Marina, who has seen many battle training sessions conducted during the winter months, how strong Vihera is.

That is why, given that we were unable to defeat Bühne in the time leading up to our arrival here, we cannot possibly be the opponents of Vihela.

"I know."

Vihera tells briefly as she looks at Kana with her back slapped to the ground.

I guess the blow now was also modest enough.

That's why Kana was still alive, even though she was in pain and shock, unable to breathe with the shock of being slapped in the back. Without that or a single bone fracture.

I got the corner, it's a source to connect to Precious.

I couldn't let him get away or kill me here.

Ray, give me the rope.

As requested by Vihera, Ray takes the rope out of the mistering.

Receiving it, Vihera ropes her hands and legs of Kana, still unable to move due to pain and shock.

It was Kana, who was still conscious, but in the present state of being slapped on the back to the ground, he can't even resist.

In the end, while nothing could be done, Kana could not move with her hands and feet tightly roped.

If the amateur has tied it properly, Kana, the human being in the back society called the assassin, can easily solve it.

However, Vihera was tied in such a way that she could not escape the rope, and Kana was completely without hands or feet.

No, with more skilled technology, I might have been able to pull the rope out, but unfortunately, with Kana's skill, that was impossible.

Approximately such a cana, the marina takes the rapier who fell out of the hands of the cana with the impact of being slammed to the ground.

"Heh... that's something inside. It's not a magic item, but it's still a first-rate weapon."

Marina whining as impressed.

In fact, that rapier was also a valued partner after Kana had previously acted as an assassin.

That's why Kana screams forcefully even though Rapier can't stand being touched by anyone but herself and still can't even speak out satisfactorily.

"Touch... bye... wow"

"Heh. I can already speak out with that shock. Could it have been a little too much?

Looking at such a cana, Vihera says a little surprised.

He probably doesn't look that angry because Ray used the potion to treat Buune's cheek wound.

The original scratches were more than scratches, and even the cheap potion was able to treat them adequately.

At first it was a human weapon in the back society, and Ray was also wary of poisons, but fortunately he didn't have to worry about the area.

Either way, Marina decides it wouldn't be a good idea to provoke Kana now, putting the rapier she had on the ground.

Still, I guess I put it away from the cana tied with rope because I'm still on guard.

"Well, apparently we can talk about it, and let me ask you something. First of all, who hired you?

It's Schwartz.

"... what?

"Oh, it's the name of the person who hired me, isn't it? So, Cheval."

Has she recovered from the impact of being slammed to the ground, and Kana doesn't even look particularly coughed up or bitter, she tells him so.

It was convenient for me to interrogate you, but the name that was actually put out in my mouth this way was a name that I didn't even know Ray at all.

I just thought the name Precious would come up...

"Cheval? Who's that?

"Come on? I'm sorry, but I'm not sure about my client's identity. Include the rewards and I'll take care of the request."

"This is how you seem to speak of the other side of the information?

"Bye. You're Ray, aren't you? There's no one else acting with Griffon. I'm not going to stand up to an anonymous adventurer."

"... then you really hired that guy named Cheval, huh?

"Yeah. So that's what you're saying, isn't it?

Kana, who even laughs and tells him that, in terms of bravery, could be said to exist in public.

But in this case, you should have said they were bad.

"Right. Then there's something completely irrelevant to us. Because I don't have time to hang out with you any more... can I run errands?"

Ray whined, glancing at the marina takes the death size out of the mistering.

A giant blade was stuck straight into Kana's neck.

Later, if Ray puts a little force into his hand with a death size...... the next moment, Kenna's neck will be lightly separated from her torso.

You know what that means, a glimmer of sweat falling off Kana's cheek.

Because that's how I understood the killing spirit released from Ray when he was trying to take his own life, not a joke or anything.

"Bye."

With that whine, a force is put into Ray's hand... Kana meditates her eyes reflexively.

And the Death Size blade touches Kana's neck, slashing and tearing her skin and bleeding...

"Wait."

The moment a death-sized blade tries to cut meat next to the skin, a voice hangs waiting from the marina's mouth.

"What's going on?

"I know it's none of our business, but it's obvious this guy's involved in this one. Then why don't we stick it out to the guards instead of disposing of it here?

"... are you serious? Like this guy says, it's not like he's really involved in this one, is it?

"Yeah. But it doesn't necessarily mean you're not involved, does it? Then it's best to leave this matter to the guards in charge of the Spiel Chamber of Commerce."

"What do you mean?

"Right. From the standpoint of the former Alliance Master, I think that would be better."

Listening to Marina like that, Kana loosens her expression just a little bit.

He said he would die like this. I just thought so, once I thought I might be able to survive, I couldn't do anything to cut it off.

... tied up, behind a cana you can't see behind, not realizing that Vihera was smiling watching Ray and Marina's exchange.

"Okay. We'll follow Marina's advice once we get here. Then I'd rather you bring the guards than take this guy... Do you want me to call you?

No one speaks out an objection to Ray's words asking.

Especially since Kana was in favor of Ray being gone, who tried to kill herself lightly, she sincerely wanted Ray gone, although she remained silent.

"Yeah, why don't you just lay it on? Just in case, will you leave Ceto over here?

"Oh.... Seto, can you protect the marinas here for a while because I'm going to get some guards? Well, I don't think there's a guy out there who's gonna get his hands on the detour."

At the time Seto is here, it's clear that the face here is Ray's associate.

You'll regret it if you have someone who doesn't know that and comes up with a hand, and if you're someone who knows that, you won't.

"Grrrrrrrrrr!"

Leave it to me, gently stroke the ringing ceto, and Ray leaves the spot.

When Ray disappeared that way, Kana exhaled in a breath of nature and relief.

I know that I am not a very, but I can live in a tabular society: an assassin.

But still... I've never felt anything like death directly so far.

So I guess the disappearance of Ray, which should be called a symbol of death for Kana, couldn't help but feel a sense of relief in nature and heart.

The two Marinas and Vihera, who were watching such a cana, softly exchange their gazes.

Büne had kept his weight in Seto's body as if healing or faint as the fatigue of the battle he had fought until earlier.

And the surroundings are filled with silence.

Just in the back street, there was no one to go by, but whoever saw the battle that had been waged until earlier had quickly followed the scene.

I'm done fighting now, but I still have a lot of tension around me, and I guess I don't really think I'm going to be able to get into this place from myself.

In the meantime, eventually the silence is broken and the marina opens her mouth.

"You did a lame imitation, too."

"... I wonder what you mean. There was nothing wrong with you until you came out."

"Didn't you know we were involved in this case, including Ray? If we get our hands on the Spiel Chamber of Commerce in the current situation, I think it's natural for us to come out."

"Plus I wish I'd just stayed away from the branch after work, why bothered to stay in front of the branch?

Tell Marina to agree.

Since Kana attacked the branch of the Spiel Chamber of Commerce, there was time for the Rays to come.

Nonetheless, Kana was still around the branch.

I was mixed up with the crowd that was around me, but still, all I can say is it's a detour.

"You can't help it. I didn't think you'd be here so soon."

"Really? I don't think it was that fast."

"It's early. From what I've been through, we could have afforded a little more."

To Marina's words, Kana returns those words.

Ray, who gave himself the pressure of death, disappeared, and Marina, who sheltered herself where she was relieved, spoke, so she responded to the conversation.

With things happening as expected, Marina continued her conversation with Kana with a grin.
