"Kate, Aria. Can I have a minute?
Serie called out to Kate, who was practicing magic at a training ground built inside a building in Notreaus (Adventurer Clan).
"Ah, Mr. Serie!
"Yes, what is it?
"I have a job for you."
"A request!? I'll take care of it!!"
Kate and Aria felt a sense of crisis as they got closer and closer to them recently.
After a long time of contact from Serie, Kate and the others are happy to brighten their faces.
"What kind of request?
"Silver fox - that's silver fox. It's a crusade."
"Silver fox?"
"Is that strong?
"In terms of combat capability, it's about D rank."
"Then it's easy!
"But they have a nasty ability to hallucinate and brainwash. However, since they are unique to fox monsters, they are not limited to silver foxes."
"Ah, Mr. Serie. Then rest assured."
"I see. I think we deserve it."
"... what? Why?"
"Because we..."
"They're resistant to brainwashing and hallucinations."
"Nh, what!?"
"Really. There's a place called" The Forest of Confusion "next to our village, and we can't come back alive without hallucination tolerance."
"We've been there since we were little, collecting food with adults who were already resistant, so we were resistant."
"... really?"
While stunned by the two words, Serie conveyed the request to Kate and the others.
"So, you're asking me to humanize and find the silver fox that is mistaken by humans and crush it?
"That's right. It's hard to find a hidden silver fox ─ ─"
"Find the hidden fox tail in this Magic Vision Crystal."
Aria peeks into the crystal that Serie gave her. When she saw the series through the crystal, she could see the magic he was wearing.
"He can visualize magic with a concentration above a certain level. If it's the tail of the Silver Fox Class, it should be visible."
"It's Joey!
"It would be easy to win with this."
You can find them in hiding and win fights. In addition, the enemy's trump card, Hallucinations, did not work, but became a crusader.
It was only a matter of time before this silver fox, lost in a country called Glendale, was crushed.
If that monster is really a silver fox...
Okay, Mr. Serie, I'm coming.
"I'm coming! When you get back, you should train with me sometimes."
"Oh, Kate's the only one cheating! Serie-san, I beg you too!!"
"Okay, okay. When you get back, I'll train you both for the first time in a while. So do your best."
"Really!? Yikes!! Aria, let's get this over with!
Yeah!
With that exchange, Kate and Aria headed to the area where the Silver Fox appeared.
When Kate and the others disappeared, the solitary series muttered.
Bye. Silver foxes have the ability to hallucinate and hypnotize, but they can't be humanized. The only fox-based monsters that can be humanized are the higher-ranking foxes... and the Nine-tailed fox, which is considered a natural disaster. "
Serie wants Kate and Aria to measure the strength of the top fox monsters confirmed by Glendale. Deputy Captain Keel of the Knights Twentieth Troop confirmed the existence of the monster with his skills.
However, it was unclear to Keel whether the monster was a fox or a nine-tailed fox. That's why he asked for a fairly powerful discard for Serie. That's how Kate and the others were sent.
The fox is the most dangerous A ranked monster. If this happens, at least Kate and the others will die. However, with the upper ranks of Series and Notreaus, the crusade is possible.
The problem is if the monster that Keel found was a Kuo Fox. If so, we'll have to mobilise the top adventurers in the Knights of the Kingdom and the Adventurers Alliance to crush the Nine Tails before they grow.
Nevertheless, it is unlikely that it is a full-bodied nine-tailed fox.
This is because the fully fledged Kuo fox will continue to rage until the magic accumulated in its tail is exhausted. The Nine-Tailed Fox, which has not yet been unleashed, is not a complete body. Therefore, Serie decided that there was no particular problem.
You can dispose of Kate's embarrassing existence and get a huge reward from Keel. If it turns out to be a nine-tailed fox, Keel will send a request to the Alliance through the country.
That way, the Alliance will also receive Crusade Rewards.
No matter what happens in the future, the money is coming into Notre-Dame.
"So come and die with peace of mind. Kate, Aria. It's been a short time, but thank you so much."
As Kate and the others turned away, a series of snoring smiles shouted.
─ ─ ─ ─
About a while after Kate and the others left King's Landing.
A beautiful woman was soaking in the hot spring somewhere.
"... oh, is there finally a concubine crusader here? It took me a long time to feed you."
She knew everything about the far away King's Landing. His (...) woman (...) in the Guild, the Knights of the Kingdom, and Notorious sends information from his (...) brainwashed (...) self.
"The crusaders... These are, well, cute kids."
A beautiful woman who closed her eyes and confirmed Kate and Aria's appearance in her head smiled.
"The only two are not meant to be slaughtered, but to see the power of their concubines? In that case, he may come nearby this time."
This beautiful woman was moving to eliminate the existence of sniffing around her husband.
Its existence is Keel. Since he was hard to catch, the beauty was trying to scorch Keel for herself.
"Well, what's the matter? We have to brainwash them... really? With the exception of humans who can withstand the hallucinations of the bewildered forest and brave men from other worlds ─ ─"
I noticed a possibility of a beautiful woman.
"No way... but if that's the case, I'll be satisfied. To make sure, you two need to go out together. In some cases, it can be used quickly and effectively."
I decided to believe my hypothesis. And I am confident that if everything goes well, I will be able to further enhance my husband's strength.
When the beauty left the hot spring, she shouted at the bracelet she wore on her arms to call her husband.
"Master Hart, it's Kyoko. May I have a moment?
