"Phew... is this a relief for now?"

After that, we broke out of the casino through the back door with the manager's guidance and headed off to the outskirts of town to avoid the crowd.

As such, the four of us were finally able to catch a breath when we found a lonely inn that seemed just right to hide.

"Right. Nevertheless, I caught sight of you because you beat me badly..."

"Hold on, I didn't know you were 27 million on a roulette... aren't you talented?

"Stop it, Mr. Zwed... it just so happens, and even if you had talent... you don't want to do it again"

"I wish I'd seen you like that..."

"Ha... if it wasn't Mr. Din's fault"

That was bad luck...... no, was it too good?

Either way, the casino is already a dustpan...

"I'm sorry... so? I hadn't heard it yet, but why was Zuid in this town?

"Oh, then I just heard. He asked me to come over, and then he said he was going to meet his friends."

"Huh? What's your friend..."

"I'm sure you're familiar with it, but that's what I was in the casino for..."

"No way...... is that a skirk!?

"" What!?

Mr. Zwed got Mr. Skirk too!?

"Hey, what are you so surprised about... you know me and that guy are in sync, right?

Oh, well... Mr. Skirk was the same "golden generation" as Mr. Zwed.

Nevertheless......

"There's such a coincidence."

"Ah, Mr. Din...... doesn't that mean Mr. Skirk was waiting for you in his cold shoes, not us, Mr. Zuid?

"I see... you mean that"

"Am I right? What happened?

Actually, we were looking for Mr. Skirk, too.

"... what?

I got permission from Mr Din to tell Mr Zuid about it on Frost and from then on.

"... so now I'm on my way to Otris, looking for Mr. Skirk and our friends. Don't let Rae's soldiers find you."

"I'm in a lot of trouble..."

"Well. So, just help me out, too."

"Uh..."

Oh, that's good, Mr. Din.

"If Mr. Zwed was here, he'd have a hundred manpower... no, a thousand manpower..."

"Don't look at me like that... it's the mountains I want to give you a hand with... not now. I've been asked to."

"Oh well... too bad"

"Sorry."

"Because of this, what kind of request is it?

"For once, confidentiality... well, you guys would. I'm asking you to find the missing girl."

Request to find the missing girl......?

That's what I would say if I said something like this, but not for the request Mr. Zwed would take......

"Isn't that right?

"Huh?"

"Write it on your face. You're not like me."

"Oh, haha... well, that's not true, is it?

Hey, how do you know...

"Ha... well, I actually think so too. Originally, I was just saying no to looking for someone with more suitable magic for it. But this time... there's something I think."

"Where do you think?

"Whether or not I take the request is up to the client how much he wants to make it happen... with that thought. I don't care about money, and I don't care about rank anymore. Nevertheless, a hell of a lot of requests come to me every month. If I'd checked all of that, I wouldn't have a kiri. So I always stick my hand in a pile of letters of request and randomly pull some out of them. That's the fairest thing. So, it's time to meet the client in person, listen to him, and decide whether or not to take it eventually. At first, like I said, I tried to say no to hitting something else, but I changed my mind when one word came out."

"A word......?

"That's the missing girl... apparently" incompetent ""

"... Huh?

Mm, "incompetent"...!

"Ho, is that true!?

"Not from what I've heard. Things have been going wrong since the day I was given magic, and she said she was half-pulled. So, I convinced my client, my parents and their friends... oh, you said you didn't think I was" incompetent "at this point, but you did because you were just worried. Well, until I managed to get out of the room by that persuasion, but there I said I was" incompetent "... yes, she told me."

Pull back and make my family... something... similar to me.

"My client's parents, to be honest... said the moment I heard that, my head turned white. I guess she was desperate about how it went...... she popped her parents and jumped out of the house apparently. My parents have always regretted it. I don't know why I couldn't take it from you, or why I couldn't give you a stronger hug... Then I kept looking for her for three years, but I finally didn't know where she was going. So, while I was doing this, my client lived there... Armenia is gone"

"Armenia... it was destroyed by Titanomachia..."

"That's right. As a result, the client is now turning himself over to Greece. Always thinking about my daughter."

Usually, if someone finds out they are "incompetent," a tremendous aversion to that person arises.

In my case, your mother took it, but this kid must have been betrayed...

But the truth is, I kept thinking about it.

I knew... Parental love is great.

I have to thank you more, too.

"That thought and the word" incompetence "are the reasons why I received this request. Tia on the road...... then this guy is hearing from Byrne but Roy took the magic away from me and called me" incompetent "...... asna"

"Huh!... Yes"

Asuna......

"With all this around me, I'm not a human resource anymore. That's what happened."

"Oh my... heh!

"Hey, what the..."

"Oh, no... I thought Mr. Zwed was a good man."

"Ugh!

It's lit... these places are adorable.

"Um, what's your name because of that? The child."

"Oh, that kid's name is Cheryl-Rapid..."

"" "What!?

"Hey, what the fuck!?

No way......!

"Hey! That kid's hair is red and long!?

"Are your eyes orange!?

"Hey, how did you know... you guys met!?

"The friend we're looking for is that Cheryl!

"Huh!? Seriously...... duh, where did you see that!?

"The last time I saw him was in Focken, Nieberg, and I was looking for him following the smell of magic..."

I told Mr Zuid more details and what had happened so far.

That I helped Cheryl, who was attacked at Focken's bar, or that I decided to look for her because the letter I left said "Don't go north" and things were not right.

And from what I've seen, I don't think you belong to a very good organization.

"Well... I'll tell you what, Skirk and good Cheryl... what a coincidence..."

"It's true... Oh, so, why is Mr. Zuid north? Did you come here with any information?

"Oh, no, I rather came here to get information. Some scumbags in this town are buying people... so I thought I'd start by looking around."

"Ah... you mean..."

"Oh. Chest shit. Bad story, but" incompetence "is rarely worth it in a way. Besides, I don't have to worry about getting away with it... especially if it's a young woman. I don't think I can live without anyone's help, and get caught one way or the other... because it can happen."

"... that's a nasty story"

"It's not like I've decided yet. Anyway, we just have to gather the information."

"Yeah......"

After all, I don't know anything...

But...

"Anyway, now Mr. Zwed is one of us. Mr. Skirk and Cheryl are looking for us, too, and we'll act together."

"Mmm... well yeah..."

"Yay! First of all, he bought it..."

"No, you don't have to."

"What?"

Seeing, Mr. Din was staring at the floor with a rugged face, with his index finger on his forehead.

"... what do you mean, old man"

"Zuid, you just... it was Cheryl-Rapid you were looking for, right?

"Huh? Oh... is that it?

"Huh... this is a mess..."

"Mr. Din......?

"I only heard the name from Tia and the others... I didn't even catch on when I first heard the name. But I didn't think it was such a coincidence... I know Cheryl-Rapid"

"What!?

"Duh, what do you mean!?

"This is the story Lord reported to King Celtic and passed on to Lady Adeed from there. It seems that when Armenia perished, the Knights captain there was rolling in front of the Greek castle on the verge of death. I'm talking about Dragnis, who helped me, but, well, let's just put it away now. So, it was Lord who completely healed the wound, and the Armenian Knights Commander... gave him the information on Lord."

"A piece of information...?

"There was a girl in Armenia called" incompetent ". And the king of Armenia had a hobby for the girl of incompetence."

"Hey, what's that!?

"Oh, the king!? Oh no... terrible...!

"Chip... so we get Armenia. Titanomachia... hmm? Hey no way......!

"That's right. Titanomachia killed the king and took away the" incompetent "girl. The girl's name..."

"Cheryl......!
