Returning to the city, Ataru and the others head to the Adventurers Guild first.
Upon entering the guild, Milan was just in the reception business, and as soon as he saw the Ataru, he rushed over.
"Welcome home! Looks like you're safe, more importantly!
The Atals had a good impression on her, who was pleased with the safety of the four first.
"Oh, I'm home. I'd like to talk to you soon..."
"Okay! You're going to let my mother know. Please wait a moment."
When Atal sees what he wants to say, Milan rushes to the Guildmaster Room.
"Mr. Millan talks fast, doesn't he? You want to hear a lot about it, but you know what to prioritize and you can act on it."
It is easy to imagine that if Milan had prioritized his curiosity, he would have made the Ataru's question-attack on this occasion. But she put reporting to her mother first without doing so.
After a while Miran runs down the stairs.
"Ha-ha-ha... Thank you for waiting! Please come here because you want to talk upstairs."
Ataru follows Milan silently as he leads him to his room, disturbed by his breath.
When he arrives in front of the room, Milan breathes and quietly knocks on the door.
"Please, come in"
Then as soon as he heard a reply from inside, Milan opened the door and urged the four of them to go in first. There Milan's mother sat back on the couch for the reception and waited.
"Thank you for taking the time to come and report. It's a high-profile request, so a lot of people are listening downstairs. I asked you to come this way so it wouldn't leak outside. My name is Brenda, and I'm Milan's mother."
I won't break your expression. Brenda graces me softly.
"No, this is the one that helps with the quick response. I'll name it again, but I'm Atal, this is Caro, and Balkias and Ifria."
When Atal introduced his companion, Caro lowered his head with a pepper, Balkias barked with Gau, and Ifria was on Balkias with his eyes meditating.
"Nice to meet you. So, with the debriefing... please sit down there first"
Atal and Caro as Brenda urged, and Milan sit on the couch.
"It will be soon, may I have a report?"
"Oh, of course. I'll tell you first, we'll explain as we see it. Predictions may get mixed up along the way, but I'm not gonna lie, so just trust me there."
Your words are incredible. It's difficult for Brenda to say that, so I'll keep her in mind in advance.
"I know. My daughter told me about you after that. I've been kept a lot of secrets, but I still know I'm a trustworthy person."
Satisfied with the answer, Atal nods and starts reporting.
"Firstly, as we know, we were to leave late for the other adventurers. That's why I don't know what happened when the other adventurers got there first"
I will explain it in turn from the beginning. Both Milan and Brenda listened quietly to the story.
"When I arrived, I didn't see any other adventurers. We stepped out of the carriage at the entrance and went back, but there we found ourselves getting carried away. The temper gradually took the form of a demon. It's like a horned monster."
When I hear that much, neither Milan nor Brenda are surprised by the demonic stories they've never heard of.
"The demon had no entity. It's only natural because it's a hunk of temper, but it was another demon who was tempted by it. By sealing that demon's movements, we managed to win."
An exasperating demon. This is also the first ear, and since it is dangerous to have such demons, both Milan and Brenda have a more and more rugged look.
"After the battle, we took a stroll around for a while to see if there were any traces of the adventurers heading ahead. But the body was found with no grate, no pieces of clothing, no carriage, nothing. We couldn't find anything, so we decided to go back."
I dared not say anything about the gaze I felt.
"So the immediate danger has left, is that it?
That's what Milan asked when he opened his mouth to confusion when he finished talking about Atal.
"That's probably all I can say about that. We've removed the cause of what appears to be the culprits of this one, but it doesn't necessarily mean that the same demon won't show up again. Besides, it seems to be only the cause... and it's not definitive"
Atar mouths an ambiguous answer because the adventurers disappeared and the presence of this demon did not necessarily seem to be tied in equals.
"I see, I get it. I guess we should acknowledge it as a request fulfillment because it means no other adventurer has returned as one and you have defeated the demons. But..."
Brenda is trying to be unspeakable, albeit not as outspoken as she was at first. But Atar could have expected the following words:
"It's hard to admit without any evidence, isn't it?
In response, Brenda nods quietly and Milan opens her eyes like that to her mother's attitude.
"I have proof for once. I caught a monster who was exasperating."
Ataru, who originally expected to be said so, doesn't look particularly concerned, and takes the sealed ball out of the magic back.
"This is the demon. It's sealed in the sphere, so you won't be exhaled... but you can take it out of here if you want."
I see it for the first time. Milan and Brenda looked at it with interest, but when they heard Atal's words, they panicked and shook their heads beside each other in the same way.
"Oh, you don't have to do such a dangerous thing! Chi, by the way, can I keep this here? I'm going to carry it to a big guild and ask for an investigation..."
The investigation wants to proceed, but we can't force the Ataru to give up what they've caught, Brenda asked, cursing her complexion.
"Uh, I don't mind anything. I can't help but have one of these. It's just, you know, you can unseal the ball or something, right?
"Of course!
Not that I wanted it. Atal hands Brenda a sealed ball lightly. The sealed sphere created by Ifria was powerful, but Brenda, happy to have it conceded, didn't even notice.
