Master of the brave.

Three people, Winn, Leticia and Cornelia, who broke up with Rock, were visiting the east branch of the Simurgh Adventurer Guild, where Winn used to go when he worked as an adventurer.

To ask if there is any information about the missing in the Glades.

The eastern branch of the Simurgh Adventurers Guild boasts one of the largest in the Empire.

Once inside the guild, it's quickly a big hall, with a counter behind it that mediates adventurers and clients

"Is that it? Is there some kind of tingle in the air?

Leticia pulled Winn's sleeve and said.

"Yeah. Somehow, quieter than usual or darker than usual..."

Adventurer operation is a lot of life saving work.

It's normal for them to be cheerfully noisy while appreciating that they always survived the day when they got the job done safely.

Of course not all adventurers are of that character, but it is nevertheless true that there are many humans of an optimistic character.

But I can see the look on the faces of every adventurer gathering today. Some of the parties were exciting, but still more reluctant than usual to be around, it was somewhat of a quiet atmosphere.

"I wonder if it was an accident at some party"

Leticia dropped her voice a little and spoke to Wynn.

When there's this kind of atmosphere, it's when it's decided that some party has lost or wiped out its people while they're at work.

Causal commerce, which can deprive each other of a heavily earned request or at times become enemies at work, but between those who belong to the same guild.

The sense of union is memorable, and the sense of fellowship between adventurers is very strong.

Besides, this operation, whether it be the events of a party elsewhere, is our own tomorrow.

Winn and Leticia had also experienced several times as children that there would be some accidents and a magical atmosphere in the guild.

Winn stroked Leticia's head just a little gently to comfort her, then she regained her mind and turned to the counter behind the guild.

At the counter, three officials deal with the adventurers, but Winn walks in early to shine his face for realizing something as soon as he sees you.

I'm sitting in the middle of an official with three people on my way, a young man still in his twenties or so.

No one is lined up in front of the youth because the other two receptionists are for flattering young women or because the majority of adventurers were lined up for their seats.

The young man looked at some paperwork in his spare time as he made a great stretch, but looked up when he noticed the approaching win.

"Oops, welcome to the Adventurer Guild - WIN!? Oh, come on, it's a win! And could you possibly be Letty!?

At first he was a young man who tried to say hello as the model, but when he saw the faces of Wynn and Leticia, he surfaced himself with the colour of joy.

The momentum and the shout of the youth turned to the female staff of both neighbors and the adventurers they were responding to surprised.

"Haha, I'm out of time. Mr. Poulat."

"Hello, Mr. Poulat"

Leticia, who noticed about the youth following Wynn, also greeted him with her face down.

Poulat Weaver.

Once, as an adventurer, I partied with Wynn and Leticia to be friends and age apart friends who worked many times.

"Hey, it's been a long time since Letty's been here, too. No, that's right, Letty. Are you calling me a mess?

Poulat was just an official of the guild, and he knew that the identity of the little girl he once worked with was Leticia Van Mavis, a brave man who was now becoming a legend, who accomplished the feat of defeating the Demon King.

Leticia let Poulat shake her head small enough to dive in a little and say so, as she cared about her surroundings.

"Letty's fine, Mr. Poulat. By the way, why is Mr. Poulat sitting at the reception?

"Oh well. Letty doesn't know, does she? Actually, Mr. Poulat, after Letty was traveling..."

Remembering the circumstances of Poulat's retirement from his adventurer, he was a winner with a slightly darker look on his face by dropping his voice, but Poulat made him laugh brightly the other way around.

"Don't look so serious, Winn.

Letty, I broke my leg at work a long time ago, and the adventurer went out of business. "

A poison arrow fired by a bandit hit near Poulat's right leg thigh when asked to do a bandit crusade. Though I retained my life, the aftermath of that injury led me to draw my right leg back.

With the legs that have become crippled, adventurer operations with lots of havoc cannot continue.

Luckily, the Adventurer Guild receptionist was vacant and Poulat was recruited as an employee of the Guild at the mercy of the Guild Master.

"Heh, that happened after I traveled..."

Leticia gives me an unexpectedly painful look.

I remember Poulat dreaming of becoming an adventurer.

But behind such Leticia's attitude, Wynn and Poulat laughed face-to-face.

"Hey, Letty. How do you know there was a vacancy in the Adventurer Guild staff frame when Mr. Poulat had to retire as an adventurer?

Winn said with a rare, mean smile on his face.

"Huh? How come... isn't it usually because someone quit?

Patchy her eyes. Leticia compares Winn and Poulat.

Poulat had a nymphomaniacal look on his face.

"Do you remember, Mr. Luria?

"Oh, yeah! You're the one who liked Mr. Poulat!

Mr. Luria is the name of a woman who, when Wynn and Leticia were young, was a receptionist at the Adventurer's Guild counter.

A woman who took good care of Wynn and Leticia, who was still a runaway adventurer.

"Mr. Luria. I'm named Luria Weaver now."

"Luria Weaver? Luria Weaver...... Weaver! Poulat Weaver!"

When Leticia looked at Poulat's face with a painful glow on her face, Poulat scratched around the back of her head like it lit up.

"I said I could have a baby, so I was just talking about the guy from Luria quitting. I'm three years old now.

That's why my job is so much better than that of a dangerous adventurer. "

"Liar! Really!? Congratulations! Wow, I want to see Mr. Luria too! I want to see your child!

Leticia opens her eyes and says the words of celebration in a bounced voice.

"Ooh, thanks. Come visit me at home next time. Luria will be glad."

"Yeah, brother. Let's go together next time."

"Yeah, you are."

"And Letty, on the contrary, would like to thank you."

Poulat, who accidentally looked serious, bowed his head toward Leticia.

"Thank you. Thanks to Lady Leticia, our child has become a world where there is hope for the future. I really appreciate it."

"... yeah, that's okay. Let me see your two kids next time."

Suddenly, surprised by Poulat, who had changed and thanked him, Leticia nodded with a much prettier smile, as did Poulat.

"And yet... I'm totally grown up... and I've been cute jumping through it since then, but it's really beautiful.

I've known it since I was a little girl. Hmm... I know what you mean. "

Unh unh and some emotional face and nodding Poulat.

"Hey, Mr. Poulat... you look like your uncle, don't you?

"Hahaha, Letty always had some kind of mogmog, and I didn't get the impression that she was sneaking around after Winn"

"So, Mr. Leticia was a foodie?

"That's not true! I don't think..."

Leticia is shaking her head at the teasing Cornelia and denying it.

So besides Leticia, Poulat, who noticed that Winn was taking the other girl, held Winn's head in his arms, trying to get himself off the counter, hey.

"Not just you, Letty, but another one of those cute kids! Cheating!?

"Chi, no, no!

"What is it, Winn? You, didn't you become a knight?

Or is that it? I knew what a classy job a knight didn't fit, and you quit and even came to be an adventurer? You'd welcome us, wouldn't you?

He said, "No! I just dropped by today to ask you some information."

"What. Aren't you going back to being an adventurer? Well, you and Letty stay registered to our guild, so of course I'll give you any information you know."

Winn bashed Poulat's arm as he tightened with Gyghui.

"Poulat......, I'm seriously kidding..."

When he manages to shake Poulat's arm off, Winn rubs around his neck with Zeizay out of breath.

"She's, uh... a friend in knight school, I guess?

"Friends, no? What the hell. Can't you say your name, dude?"

"There's a little bit of a situation, with all that..."

Poulat looked at Wynn's face with a surprise face, but he looked like he'd accidentally noticed something.

Then I can slowly look around and then tell my colleagues who were doing other jobs behind me to change their jobs.

"Hey, Winn, come here"

Taking the cane he had placed beside his seat, he led the three Wins to the second floor of the guild, trying to pull their unfettered right leg together.

Private rooms are available on the second floor of the Simlug Adventurer Guild East Branch, a three-story building where clients and adventurers can use it when they want to have a secret conversation or something.

Poulat opened his mouth as he passed the Winns into one of the rooms.

"So Wynn. Well, I guess I'm expecting you. Who's this guy?

"Yeah. I'll introduce you again, Mr. Poulat. This is Mr. Cornelia. And Mr. Cornelia. This is Mr. Poulat, an adventurer who used to take care of me and Letty when we were little. Now they're staffing the guild."

"Nice to meet you. My name is Cornelia."

Carefully bowing his head, Poulat shrugged small when he heard Cornelia name it.

"I don't know how to be polite or anything, so please forgive me for being a little disrespectful. It's an honor to meet you. Her Royal Highness Princess Cornelia."

Bend your crippled right knee, manage to attach one knee, then lower your head.

"Keep your head up, please. Because I'm just a student of the Knights School right now. It would be helpful if you treated me that way, if you could."

to Cornelia's words. Poulat bowed his head again and stood up.

Then I recommend the chairs in the room to the three of us, and then I sit face to face myself.

"Mr. Poulat, you know very well that Mr. Cornelia is Her Royal Highness."

"Well, then, adventurers know information is life. As much as the civilians have become the crown princess's squire, I know most of the adventurers I hear.

That's all the more so with this East Branch.

Winn is the rumored civilian, the aristocratic lady that Winn is taking with him. Besides, when it comes to friends at the Knights School who are hard to name, you'll already have a pretty good idea. "

Winn nodded.

"But I've spoken to Her Royal Highness... and I'm going to tell you this from generation to generation."

"Um, Mr. Poulat? For once, I, too, am the daughter of the Duke's house..."

"Hahaha, when they say that, Letty, what is it too?

I mean, it's incredible that I was an adventurer with that brave guy... but in a way, I'm part of the brave guy's party too?

"Yeah. Well, yeah."

"Seriously! Next time I'll ask the bard to make some poetry back then. Still, you know, I don't know what to say... since I got to know the Winns, it's been all incredible."

"I didn't do anything."

"Are you unconscious? Fine. So, what are you doing here today? I guess I didn't just drop by to show you my face."

"Actually..."

Winn tells Poulat about the recent high number of missing persons in the Glades, Celi told him.

"Oh, yeah."

Poulat, who heard the story, gave a sinister look.

"Actually, there are missing people out there on adventurers who belong to our guild, too. That's more than one..."

"Huh?"

The three Wins were surprised and looked at each other.

"You saw the atmosphere in the guild was dark, didn't you? If everyone at the party went missing, I'd think about the cause of the trouble at work, but I don't think so."

Talk about the adventurers Poulat has gone missing.

According to that story, what is common to all missing persons were three points: 'Missing in or near Shimrug, the Imperial Capital', 'Much in the run, I don't know where I am after breaking up with my people and being alone', and 'Magic can be used'.

"I can use magic..."

"That's right. Few adventurers can use magic properly, but most of them can use some magic when they're missing."

"Um..."

Cornelia reluctantly raised her hand.

"Doesn't the kidnapping of the noble lady that Mr. Locke and the others are chasing seem relevant, too? Because nobles are often wizards."

"Sure..."

It might have something to do with this.

Poulat calls out to the conceived win.

"It's about the missing people in the Glades that Wynn's been hearing about, but we at Adventurers Guild also had a couple of requests in the form of a search request. And what that missing person had in common was someone who could use magic."

"Can you use magic, but does anyone live in a slum?

Poulat grinned bitterly at Cornelia, who raised a simple surprise voice.

Those who can use magic are invaluable. It is also a proof that there is learning because it is necessary to understand the theory and so on in order to use magic.

Cornelia couldn't believe that so much stuff wasn't in the job and she was living in poverty.

But Poulat, who heard Cornelia's words, I don't mean to accuse him, but I still think he's an unpopular princess.

"Everywhere, there are people who fall apart unfamiliar with society."

"Are you afraid of payback that you're attacking all the runaway adventurers?

"Some skilled adventurers are comparable to knights.

If you're targeting someone who can use magic, it's most natural to go for a rush. "

Winn answered Leticia's question.

The strength of those who can use magic cannot be measured by appearance.

The nearest one is Leticia, who sits right next to Wynn.

"You might want to ask if the missing mercenary you asked about could have used magic"

Winn and Leticia nod at Cornelia's words.

"Let's get the name of that mercenary from Mr. Seri and contact the mercenary guild"

"Hey, Winn"

Poulat stopped Winn, who was likely to get up and jump out soon enough.

"In this matter, our Gilmouth is considering asking an armed adventurer for a nomination as a request from the Alliance, but what would you like to take on this matter?

"Me, sir?

"You have no doubt about that strength."

"Hmm, but now I..."

Winn's position is Cornelia's squire.

As for Winn, while he was interested in the incident itself, he wanted to leave it to the Rocks, if possible, after investigating Celi's alleged mercenary whereabouts in a mercenary guild.

"Oh, I'm fine."

"Mr. Cornelia?

"For once, I wanted to try the adventurer's work."

Cornelia nodded lightly with a pleasant look on her face somewhere.

"But it's dangerous. There are so many missing persons out there."

As for Winn, I just want to prioritize Cornelia's safety first.

"Alas, Mr. Wynn will protect me, won't he?

"Of course I'm going to..."

Leticia's shoulder reacted picklessly as Cornelia looked at Wynn naughtily in the ascendancy.

Poulat opened his mouth as he watched the three of them smile somewhere.

"Winn, you're in some kind of a tough spot too..."

The voice had a smudging sound somewhere.

"Well, I know how Winn feels about leading Master Cornelia through himself. So, how about in the form of a reward for success? If it sounds dangerous, you can throw it."

"Am I allowed to make that request?

"Oh."

Poulat nodded at Wynn, who inquired in surprise.

"Apparently, listening, the Knights are moving, too, aren't they? If there's a connection between what we're chasing and what the Knights are chasing, we don't even have to make a move on purpose."

"Okay. If that's the case."

"Well, in short, that's it. If the Knights are going to solve the case, we just need to hear from them."

Wynn nodded and shook back the hand Poulat had been offering.
