Long time no see, Lord Luke.

When we visited the temporary branch of the Silver Wings Knights set up at the corner of Green Hollow Town, Felix, the person in charge, greeted us with courtesy.

As always, he is so mild and soft-hearted a young man that he does not think he is in such a high position as vice-president of the Knights.

"I apologize for calling you so suddenly today. And isn't Garnet bothering you?"

"Hey here. That question, how many times now?"

"In view of what you say and do on a daily basis, it's not enough to check how many times"

"Damn, he told me to trust him. Don't bother the White Wolf."

Looking at such an exchange, he is led to the branch manager's office of the temporary branch - that is, Felix's office.

Only two of us, me and Garnett, got a call this time from the Silver Wings Knights.

On the face of it, I'm the only one invited, in the form that Garnett accompanied him as an escort, as usual.

The fact that Garnett is a Knight of the Silver Wings has so far remained down, so this is the kind of roundabout he's been doing.

"Today's business is to tell you about the status report and future plans."

While cutting out so, Felix expanded three maps on the table.

The first is a map depicting the entire Greenhollow Town.

A town in the mountains surrounded by deep woods and horizontally shaped to the east and west.

On the east side there is the town entrance and if you climb the hill towards the west you will reach the nearest dungeon's 'Sun Clock Forest'.

The second was a map of its "Day Clock Forest".

Overall, it is shaped as a rind bowl or a circular theater, divided into five stair-like hierarchies, including the bottom.

I have heard that this whole area is covered in depressed and lush greenery, which is the origin of the place names of green hollows.

And the third was a view of the underground space - the "Demon King's Castle area" - that could come and go from the concealed passage on the fifth level of the "Sun Clock Forest".

The overall shape is semi-circular with gentle arcs, with rocky mountain areas and flat wilderness occupying half of each, and rivers with groundwater gathering traverse them.

In addition, the 'Hollow Bottom Fortress' was built so as to block both ends of the concealed passage, so that ground and underground traffic had to pass through here.

There is also a town in the wilderness where the Dwarves live and the Demon King's Castle where we fought to the death, surrounded by the Knights' front base...

"As you know, by the withdrawal of the Demon King's Army and the occupation of Demon King's Castle, the war against the Demon King's Army saw a de facto end. Then inevitably, the withdrawal of the forces gathered for the war will begin"

Felix placed several small blue plates on the second and third maps.

Perhaps this represents the current troop deployment.

"Of the troops of the Golden Tooth Knights, the ones to remain are the Occupy Demon King's Castle and the garrison of the 'Hollow Bottom Fortress'. Other positions and strongholds will be abandoned, and the Demon King's Castle Realm will be transferred to the control of the Adventurer Alliance as a dungeon."

And Felix left only two of those blue boards on the map, one in turn.

It is a satisfactory response.

For the battle against the Demon King Army, the Knights have put vast numbers of personnel into the 'Demon King Castle realm'.

It was natural to pull them up when the war was over, and it also felt appropriate to choose where to leave them.

Demon King Castle is important, among other things.

I haven't seen it directly yet, but there was a deep passage hidden behind Demon King's Castle.

The Demon King's Army disappeared through it too, so if you're thinking about a re-invasion or the emergence of a new enemy, you'll want to consolidate your protection as a matter of priority.

"Now that the threat of the Demon King's Army has disappeared from the 'Demon King's Castle realm', more adventurers are coming than ever to explore ancient ruins and minerals... No, you know Lord Luke better around here"

"I do think more adventurers. In other dungeons, it's common for more people to get rid of troublesome warcraft."

The adventurer is basically diving into the dungeon as an operation.

It is a natural idea to want to make money safely, and it is uncommon or irrelevant to flock more after others have ensured safety.

Of course, the guy who contributed to ensuring the safety of the dungeon is appreciated by the guild and awarded a bounty or added to his rank-up rating.

Some people want to take risks and improve their ratings, others want to avoid risks and earn money safely, and as a percentage, the latter is bigger - that's just it.

"We, the Knights of the Silver Wings, are expected to continue our presence on the current scale, as a rapid increase in adventurers and the need to strengthen our Green Hollow security measures was anticipated"

Two Knights are currently stationed in Green Hollow: the Golden Tooth Knights and the Silver Wing Knights.

The role of the Golden Fang is war against the Demon King's Army, while the role of the Silver Wing is ground defence and policing during the war.

This time, it is the Golden Tooth Knights who are planning to withdraw.

"But we must say that we are oblivious to the common sense of the adventurer industry. Therefore, I would like to ask Lord Luke for advice if necessary...... could you please"

"What, is that so? Of course you can."

I see, I was deliberately summoned because I wanted to attach consent around there?

"It's only a long career in vain. If the knowledge and experience we've been accumulating for fifteen years can help, we'll be more than willing to cooperate."

"Thank you. I was just..."

Felix's arrow tip trying to cut out the next story, the office door, was knocked lightly, and a light man's voice was thrown.

"Excuse me. Is Sir Felix here?

Garnett and Felix look at each other and round their eyes.

My voice sounded familiar to me too. That is certainly the voice of the captain of the Silver Wings Knights.

"Brother? Why are you here?"

"Come in, Captain Carmine. But I thought you weren't planning on visiting?

Carmine, the Knight Commander, smiled at me somehow, not Felix, his subordinate, or his sister Garnett, as she walked into the office in her personal clothes.

"I have business with you. [M] I wanted to tell you as soon as possible because there has been progress on the Knight's Medal that was on the shelf."

"Oh... is that it"

You sound complacent when you say it yourself, but I have cited various' achievements' in the short time since I closed my adventurer.

Because of this, both the Golden Tooth Knights and the Silver Wing Knights began to compete to give me the Knights degree and take it into their own organization because of their confrontation with each other and the difficult circumstances inside and outside the Knights.

The case of the Knight's Medal had been temporarily frozen due to the extremely good judgment of His Majesty King Alfred not to rub it in the inner circle even though he was at war with the Demon King's Army...

"The war is over, so your problem will reignite..."

"Oh. But, yeah. It's going to be a little rough."

Carmine sighed with a palpable troubled face.

"Do you know an organization called the Dragon King Knights?
