Legend

"Oh......"

Ajas' head, strangely enough, accepted the blade of a dagger held by Ilse.

Originally, a skull has a lot of solidity.

That is to the extent that even if someone unfamiliar with combat attacks with a long sword, it cannot be easily managed.

With more than a certain amount of power, of course... if that's what Ray is like, it would also be possible to crush the skull easily with the weapons he has.

However, there is no way that Ilse, who has done little of the very act of fighting, can imitate it.

Nonetheless, Ilse's blade penetrates the head of Ajas lightly, as does the brain behind it.

Accepting that blade, Ajas let go of his life lightly.

Early thirties, or mid thirties...... the end of a man who has deceived, killed, and done all he can for evil was unexpectedly light.

"Mm-hmm!

It was Rebejeff in a state where a man of intelligence forces who was around him was put in a cloth in his mouth and sealed his words, but when he saw his people lose their lives, he shouted.

Most of the voices were meaningless, but Rebejeff's crying voice still echoed around him.

"If I could understand the grief of my people dying, I wish I had acted normally as an adventurer without imitating them like this from the beginning"

A man from the intelligence unit who was near Rebejeff groans as he watches Rebejeff continue to scream even as his voice remains sealed.

"The other one is just unconscious. It might be easier."

It was Haston who was rammed into a rampage, but he has also been treated for his amputated right knee and is now unconscious.

Around Haston, who is falling to the ground a little further away, there are a number of intelligence unit men for times of need.

Hands tied, mouth sealed... I would have to tie my legs too, but I can't do that with my right knee amputated.

Though it would be impossible to escape this scene even if we tried to escape the present situation beyond the shortest of right legs.

Behind such exchanges taking place around him, Ilse, who had fought with his own hands a vendetta that he had been chasing for five years, had no such words in his ears at all.

On the contrary, he stares at the dagger in his hand, still unrealistic when he says he killed Ajas.

Most of the surrounding voices don't even get in my ear, and Ilse is just half-assed.

Others, including Ray, do not imitate anything while watching Ilse like that.

Whatever you say to Ilse now doesn't go into her ear... no, because she knew she wouldn't understand it.

"So long, Mr. Ray. We'll take the men we capture."

Dar tells Ray so after glancing at Ilse.

"Oh. Do that. I thought some organization was just trading slaves... and it's going to be bigger than I expected."

"... Yes. It was totally unexpected."

The organisation is also an organisation, not this country but other organisations… it is also not a powerful country like the Bestian Empire, but an organisation of the country of Labourina, a subordinate of the Kingdom of Mireana.

For the Kingdom of Mireana, there is no doubt that many feel insulted by the subordinate countries.

(The head of it, I'm sure, is Master Dusker.)

Dusker's face was crushed to no greater extent in the city he ruled because he had also openly allowed the leap.

Such a humiliation, as if they had painted horse shit all over you instead of mud on your face.

Even if it rots, it's one of the three major factions. He's a central figure in neutralism, so normally he wouldn't be very believable.

Of course, Gilm is currently in the middle of construction work, and a large number of people are coming for work.

If you think about it, it would be just the right place to imitate things like conspiracy and evil and plotting.

In fact, thanks to the large number of such people, intelligence units are currently busy in many ways and have not been able to send that many people even in this case.

"Besides, so far, it doesn't feel like the people ruling the country of Labourina have been getting their hands on this one, it's only at the hands of the criminal organizations in that country... right?

"Yes, but if you ask me if I can do a big deal of events like this with just one organization..."

"It's gonna be hard."

"Yeah. I was wondering if there are any people in the upper levels of the Labourina Nation who are sure to be connected to the organization. In the first place, I don't think it's that easy to get a collar of so many slaves."

"Or so it is."

Slave collars are expensive magic items.

Preparing dozens of them is not something that organizations around there can do that easily.

Not to mention the Ajas and the others are not the only ones sent by that organization.

Apart from this guild, it was almost certain that someone from the organization was being dispatched.

It was impossible to think of that as the work of one organization, if you think that they had a collar of slaves just like Ajas and the others.

"Well, for now, this one's excused me. I'm running people that this case has been solved, but you'll need to report a lot of details."

"Oh, okay. Thanks for everything this time. Let me thank you on behalf of Ilse."

"No, thank you for helping the Red Lotus Wings."

Dar gives a deep salute to Ray and toward Red Lotus Wings, Elaine and Ara.

Yellow, Elaine's submissive demon, is playing on Seto's back, and he doesn't look like he noticed such a dar.

"Oh, and what happens to the captured women?

"Right. I was wondering if I'd let you have a few days to live and let you go if I asked you where you got caught."

"... heh"

To Dar's words, Ray groans in a slightly impressive way.

It was what I expected to hear about the situation and let it go, but no way, even for a few days there, because I didn't think I would imitate letting them have a living.

Surprisingly, not just Ray, but other faces as well.

In fact, very few lords do such imitations.

It turns out that this case is so special.

"That, in this case, involves the fact that there were a large number of people gathered in the construction of the Gilm. So they have something to do with the situation around there. Well, this may not be accurate because it's a public discourse from a colleague."

"Hmm. I guess Dusker doesn't want to be ketched by the additions either. Given the reputational damage that happens, the cost of living for a few days is not that big of a deal."

To Dar's words, whine as Marina was convinced.

Most of all, I guess that's also because Dusker is a lord who falls into the good category.

(Of course, it's not just from good intentions. This one case could also be of great benefit to the Kingdom of Mireana...... no, to the neutrals. Well, the profit...... the risk to return was proportionately greater)

I was able to stop Ajas and the others this time, so there's nothing particularly wrong with that.

But if Ajas' deal had been successfully closed and he had managed to escape outside the Guild... Dusker's face would have crumbled now more than ever.

It would be certain that the Dusker would make various demands on the State of Labourina on the grounds of this case.

It would not mean that all of the profits gained from it would be Dusker's, but it was nevertheless certain that it would be a significant extraordinary income.

You will also need to put on things like this one scuffle and drop.

(Whatever...)

Ray turns his gaze to Ilse, saying it's not his job to think around it.

I defeated the vendetta I've pursued for years.

Ray doesn't know if you have that feeling or not.

But I'm pretty sure Ilse is looking at Ajas falling to the ground with a dagger stuck in his forehead in some gleeful manner.

Shouldn't you be a little more relaxed if you were supposed to?

I don't think so. It was Ray, but it's getting late at night.

The date has already changed before the Rays came to the slam and it's only night in time, but in a few more hours the morning sun will show its face.

Starting with Ray, the face of the Red Lotus wings is also treated as the main force in the construction work.

More than that, I'm off work because I'm sleepy... and there's no way I can say that.

Most importantly, Elaine and Arla don't have much to do during the day, so they can sleep normally.

It's just that the Rays are adventurers.

Beyond that, I sometimes stay up all night at my request.

Fortunately, Ray had rarely received such a request, but this can also be considered a good experience.

(I don't want to think about a good experience like that.)

Sleep is also one of the times of bliss for Ray.

Also, even if Ray's body has unparalleled performance with normal humans, it's not that he doesn't need sleep, it's a must substitute.

Given the circumstances around here, it is still not preferable to stay up all night.

"Ilse, it's going to be morning. You should get some sleep."

"... Yep"

Did you return to me in Ray's words, Ilse turns away from Ajas on the ground and looks at Ray.

It was Ilse who still seemed depressed, but still returned it to me to some extent, I guess. When I nodded small at Ray's words, I tried to move him from where he was now... and then stopped moving.

And turn your gaze to Ajas' body, which is falling to the ground again.

From the side, I don't know what Ilse is thinking.

Are you immersed in the joy of taking revenge or are you being attacked by the guilt of killing people... or something else?

Either way, from Ray's eyes, I'm pretty sure Ilse isn't in a normal state.

But it's also bad to hear that a man's self takes care of Ilse.

More than that, it was natural to assume that someone should leave the care of Ilse to the woman.

Fortunately, the wings of the Red Lotus are all women except Ray, and so are the two Elaine and Arla who are on this occasion.

If that's the case, there are plenty of people who can ask to take care of Ilse.

In the meantime... Ray's gaze stopped, Marina.

"Marina, can you ask?

Yeah, I'll take care of it.

Pfft. When Marina smiles at Elaine and Vihera, she approaches Ilse's side and whispers something in her ear.

Seeing such a marina, Elaine and Vihera move their hiccups and cheeks, respectively.

Because I laughed proudly that Ray was the one who relied on me.

Marina herself had no intention of doing that, but at least two of them felt that way: Elaine and Vihella.

But if you're going to say something in the current situation, it looks like you're jealous of the marina.

I also decided that I should stop saying something here, even if I think of Ilse who took revenge, and we both didn't have to just look at the marina with a slightly stronger look.

… but a slightly stronger gaze is only a story for Elaine and the others.

Others on the spot… Especially the faces of the intelligence forces, who don't usually have contact with Elaine and the others, their knees were trembling and their back teeth were ringing without my knowledge.

The face of the intelligence forces is a gathering of fierce warriors, but for those, too, the fighting and killings unleashed from Elaine and Vihera must have been like chilling the spine.

"Yeah? What's going on?

The moment Ray asks yes, the fighting and killing disappear beautifully.

"No, it's nothing. In the meantime, Ilse better get some rest. I think if we get some time, we can sort out our feelings a little bit."

"I think Vihera is right, too. For Ilse, this was her first experience with killing people, right? If so, it is only natural to get excited and depressed."

Everyone in this room is experienced in the act of taking a person's life in some way.

I guess that's why Elaine figured out how Ilse feels, too.

... Most of all, in Ray's case, he was confused by the common sense around here when he came to the world, so even if he killed a person, he didn't feel anything in particular if it was someone he was hostile to.

Together, this is how the disturbance that took place in the middle of the night ends.

However, this case itself has been successfully resolved, but many seeds of contention, seeds of disaster, will be created that will remain later...... No, it was to be on the table.
