I was able to get out of the church safely. What concerns me is the situation in the lodging. Let's ask Luna.

"Luna, what's the situation over there?

"Suspects are gone, only one is captured."

Luna answered calmly. Thanks for capturing me, but I guess I'm a little awkward......

An example inquisitor might head to collect it. You should go home soon.

"Copy that. I'll talk to you later. Keep your guard up."

'... I get it'

Luna replies with a serious voice color. Leeds and Lily haven't arrived at the inn yet. Let's hurry up, too.

"Store owner, I'm going back to the inn first. You have to come home with Myra slowly."

"No, Myra won't try to leave you. I'm sorry, but can you take me home?

The owner is relaxed because he does not know the status of the inn. Myra doesn't even know the situation so she just doesn't grab me anxiously and try to let me go.

It's quicker for me to take him home. Myra is a little girl about ten years old. It doesn't weigh a lot where I held it.

"Well, fine. Myra, don't let go of me."

Myra nodded quietly and re-grabbed the arm she grabbed. But it's hard to run like this. She held Myra in front of her chest and gave instructions to stick to her neck.

steep away from the church. To the inn, run as hard as you can for about ten minutes. Kick someone's house roof and move on all at once. Myra's eyes are wide open to the visibly shifting scenery. Well, you'll get used to it soon.

I thought so, but I arrived at the inn before Myra's eyes got used to it. It looked noisy in there, and the other guests were gathered on the floor. Broken everywhere and broken glass.

"Welcome home!

Luna came running over worried. Claire is next door. Leeds and Mr. Lily have also already returned, talking to other adventurers a little further away.

"Oh, I'm home. Tell me what's going on."

Luna mumbled a little and Claire answered instead.

"They were already attacked when they got back from shopping. It was just when Myra was taken away.

It seems terrible in the inn. This inn is an adventurer, isn't it? That's why the other guests were defending us. "

Slowly lower the hugged Myra and listen.

Leeds rushed out and Lily followed him.

Luna and Claire got rid of the raiders, but they were being watched from nearby for a while. This one said he prioritized treatment over counterattack because there were a large number of injured people.

"I see. Good luck."

"How was Mr. Coe?

Luna asks worried.

"There was a bad one."

In short, that's all. Explain it in detail later. You know, officially hostile to the church, I don't care about that.

"Hey... you suck, it's not pretty"

"You captured one of the assailants, didn't you?

There's a good chance he's coming to recapture it. If you're going to stick it out to soldiers, you better do something. "

"Oh, that's awkward...... Someone told me they were good at interrogation, so I left it to them. They told me not to open the room overnight."

Are you an adventurer good at interrogation...... I guess we don't want to get along a bit.

In the unlikely event that you can escape, I can immediately confirm with signs perception and maps. I guess that's what Luna and the others decided and left the interrogation to them. I have no problem with that. But overnight. I'm a little nervous. No, I'm pretty anxious. They'll be here by the end of the night.

They probably use soundproof demon props, so knocking on the room doesn't make them notice. If we break down the door and break in, we can interrupt the interrogation...

Well, if you know you're coming, you'll be fine. I'll wait for the example inquisitor. Let's welcome you armed.

Myra returns safely, so the gathered guests are disbanded. Each went back to his room.

It's still going to take some time until the owner gets back. Until then, let's have a meeting in the room.

The story is about what happened in the church. I'll also tell you what Camron and the store owner told me. And then the church turned to its enemies.

"That's not the most important story..."

"It would be too much. You'll be raided again in time, so be careful."

Claire says worryingly, but it's not what started now that the church is the enemy. That just made it clear.

But it's definitely made it harder to live in this country. I guess I'll go to another country for a while.

By the way, the church has become an enemy, but it has nothing to do with the country. Under Alencian law, the Church has independent judicial power. Regardless of the country, people can be judged and punished at the discretion of the Church. The Impunity Enforcement Unit is the Inquisitor.

If there is a problem such as a crime, the person in charge of the interrogation is arrested by the State. In this case, it's probably Camron. I guess it was a mind count to get rid of the intruders at the same time. It's about wisdom turning.

"By the way, Myra, are you good as this?

In fact, Myra was also present. I was wondering if it was important, but you didn't try to get away from me. At first, I listened to him looking bored, but he fell asleep losing his sleep. Now he's sleeping with Suyasuya on my lap.

"I'll wake you up when the owner gets back."

After finishing the conversation, I took a breath and felt signs in front of the door. Looks like the owner's back. Claire opens the door and welcomes him in.

"Sorry about that. I took care of him."

"Well, never mind. So, who are you after all?

It was a mystery, wasn't it? There were so many things I couldn't ask.

"... you didn't say. It's hard to say, I'm a former adventurer."

The shopkeeper opened his heavy mouth. He was a former A-rank adventurer party member. The old buddy you're asking for is the leader at that time, and he's B-ranked himself. Says he started lodging on the occasion of his retirement.

He was an adventurer specializing in demon hunting and bandit hunting, and he was a pretty militant party. I've never heard of bandit hunting. But it's not much money, so he said it was almost like a hobby. That's a bad hobby.

"I've been buying more resentment than people since I was in active service.

It's often like being attacked in the city. Myra was caught in a hurry. "

The store owner did not suffer any injuries that would leave him with sequelae. I would still be fine at my age. Now, it's still working pretty hard.

Still, don't worry about why I have to quit.

"Why did you quit? I would still have worked enough."

"Ugh... Do you still hear that......

I didn't want to hear it, so I didn't want to say it. "

The shopkeeper narrowed one eye and ate his teeth bitterly. I guess there was an extra reason I retired.

"Have you removed your guild yet?

"No!

... asked the leader at the time to marry him and refused. At the same time, it became a rumor among adventurers, making it difficult to stay. "

The shopkeeper replied with a short haircut.

It was a more unfortunate and pathetic reason than I expected. I guess I shouldn't ask in depth......

If so, whose child is Myra? If you were married to someone else after you retired, Myra wouldn't be the right age.

"That was... tough.

So, what about Myra's mother?

"No, look at this collar, don't you notice?

The shopkeeper points to Myra's choker and says: It's a choker I wear every day. I think it's a demon prop, but I don't know the details.

"What are you talking about? What's wrong with this magic trick?

"He's a slave."

"Slave!?

The store owner says it's too late. I had no idea.

Myra's always fine, and she's smiling. Besides, I changed and wore beautiful clothes every day. I just seemed to have a good life. I heard that ordinary slaves are no different from the general public, but you really don't know what they look like.

"What, didn't you notice?

That old fellow is now a slave trader. Sometimes I'm forced to push. "

The shopkeeper says with a fun grin.

An unusually strong former adventurer woman, currently a slaver. Like I heard somewhere...... The face of an aunt like a crazy bostodo depends.

"No way, my old buddy could be named 'Bonanza'?

"Become! You know what?

The shopkeeper says dyed his cheeks red. Huh? Did you possibly propose to Mr. Bonanza?

"I've seen him several times."

"Well... well. Bonanza said," You're a good young man. "

The shopkeeper scratched his cheeks poly looking bad.

I can't imagine this shopkeeper proposing to Mr. Bonanza. I manage to think of that scenario, but it just seems like I'm asking for debt.

"I don't know if it's a good idea to live, but it's probably us.

Well, say hello. "

When I said that, the shopkeeper leaked with a strange face.

"You look like you stuck your foot in a wet leather shoe, what's up?

What kind of face is that? He probably looked subtle.

"No, right. You're that Mr. Bonanza, aren't you? What did you propose?

I can't do such horrible things. That guy, he's pushy and willing. He is also powerful in Omake. I'm sorry, but as a partner, my existence is too powerful to match in a concurrent man.

"Once upon a time, it was strong, beautiful, stylish, and admirable for everyone."

The store owner tells you to put your mind to something, but who the hell are you talking about?

Mr. Bonanza, I know, is violent, crazy, in a todo-like shape, and frightening.

"Are you serious...?

"Seriously. I guess I quit my adventurer and exercise less. It grew bigger as I saw it."

The course of time is brutal...... Hopefully I missed you when you were a beautiful sister.

"That's a little incredible."

"There is no mercy in the course of time."

The shopkeeper shrugged with a distant eye.

"No, just give me a minute. You said your old buddy's daughter was targeted earlier, didn't you? No way, Mr. Bonanza's..."

"That's not true. Bonanza is still single."

I don't know why, but I was horrified. It's too shocking that Mr. Bonanza has a daughter. That guy's daughter...... just thinking about it is horrible. I'm glad it's not.

"That's fine.

But why is the store owner so uptight?

"He was an animal man, but he's already dead. I'm investigating instead."

It's unfortunate, but it happens all the time. This world is prone to people dying. When you get sick, you can barely cure it. You can't be alarmed by a cold.

You've prolonged the chat. Talking about a possible raid this evening, the shopkeeper took Myra home asleep.

The wounded inquisitor will definitely come. I won't tell the other guests about this. I'm going to slap him close to the inn. We're not the enemy of the owner, so we'll deal with it alone.

Well, the Inquisitor of the Church was originally our enemy. We should take care of it.

He prepared dinner after that, so I'm off today when I eat that. Even so, I'll just take turns and get some sleep. A masquerade will be held late this evening (raided by a masquerade inquisitor). Restore your health before guests arrive.
