"The demons that Mr. Gyro was crusaded with are 5 A-ranked, 12 B-ranked, and 8 C-ranked and 13 D-ranked."
"" "" "Ooh!
"Are you serious!? It's Nanimon. That kid!?"
Gyro, the other adventurers who were on the crusade shout out their surprise at the amount of demons you crusaded.
After the end of the massive crusade was declared, we were assessing the demons we defeated at the Adventurer Alliance business desk set up in the wilderness.
Especially since Mr. Liliera and Mr. Gyro were fighting a crusade, I guess I'm just wondering how it turns out.
"I'm next."
Mr. Liliera takes the body of the demon she crusades from the magic bag and lines it up.
Oh, yeah, I left Mr. Liliera and Mr. Gyro with the magic bags I made.
Anyway, this is a massive crusade, so it would have been a lot of hassle if I hauled it to the desk.
"Er... Liliera's crusaded demons have 8 A's, 15 B's, and 15 C's."
"" "" "Ooh!
"That sister's not a tadamon, either!
"Who the hell are they!?"
And that's 38 to 38, and the battle is a draw.
"Damn! It's a draw!
I hear it's a draw, Gyro. I roar that you're not convinced.
"No, you lost Gyro."
But Mr. Mina declared your defeat, Gyro.
"What? Why am I losing when it's a draw?"
Gyro, your words make me look like Mr. Mina doesn't understand.
"The answer is quality."
"Quality?"
In Mina's words, we see the demon we both hunted.
"Oh, that's the rank of the demons you've crusaded."
And, Mr. Norb understands Mr. Mina's sincerity.
"Hey, what's going on, Norb?
You still don't understand, Gyro. You demand an explanation from Mr. Norb.
"I mean, the numbers are the same, but Mr. Liliera is hunting more high-ranking demons."
"That's not all. Gyro wasn't in good material condition because he fought the way he should have. The buying price will drop considerably, won't it? But the demons that Mr. Liliera crusaded have been taken care of to minimize damage."
"Are you serious..."
For the first time since I was told, I realize that fact, Mr. Gyro.
Well, I guess it's a difference in experience around here.
Liliera, who has a longer history of adventurers than you, was unconsciously able to add and subtract from the area.
"That's why Mr. Liliera won this fight."
"Damn! We lost. Huh!
Gyro regrets as you step on the estate.
"Well, that being said, it's the same number, so I can't tell you what looks great either."
And when Mr. Liliera humbles herself, Gyro, you stop wasting the estate and see Mr. Liliera.
"No, losing is losing! I'll admit I lost this time honestly. You're still better up there now! But the next time you fight, you won't lose!
"Yeah, I'm looking forward to it."
That said, the two shake hands.
Yeah, yeah, it looks like you two got your battles together beautifully.
It's Mr. Rex's turn next.
And, Mr. Liliera and you, Gyro, stare at me.
"I'm not hunting much prey, though."
I leave crusaded demons on the ground. [M]
"Hey, if you did that prey thing, wouldn't you be big? Where did you drag me from?!?"
"He's allergic. He's a rookie who beat S-rank."
"Is he the one who fought Roddy the Cyclone and won!?"
Wait, why am I fighting Mr. Roddy directly?
What I did was a demon crusade. [M]
"And then there's the green dragon."
And after arranging all the demons, I finally take out the green dragon and ask the receptionist to assess it.
"" "" D, even the dragon yep!? ""
The people around me give a shout of surprise, but the Green Dragon has been defeated during this time, and I don't think it's such a rare creature.
"Please wait a moment"
When the receptionist calls for other staff members who were walking nearby, the assessment begins by splitting them among several staff members.
And as everyone watched, all assessments were completed.
"Uh, what are the results of Mr. Rex's assessment? 1 dragon, 9 S-ranks…"
"Nine S-Ranks!?"
"How the hell did you take him down!?"
The adventurers around them once again raise their voices of surprise.
Sasu is my brother.
"Well, that's as expected."
On the contrary, Gyro, you are not particularly surprised. [M]
Well, it's the S-rank of the green dragon and the weak.
"And there are 25 A-ranks, 34 B-ranks, 57 C-ranks."
"" "" "" Many!
Yeah? I don't think there's that many of them, huh?
Because I just happened to get a grip on the demons coming to the King's Capital.
"I knew it, but when you put the results into words, it was a tiny stretch of intent for us to compete."
"My brother's after the big guy this time, so I thought he might win if he only had a few. What is a triple digit..."
"Oh, you were thinking about that, so you were knocking it down depending on the allowance."
Gyro, I'm so convinced that Mr. Mina will be the one to whine about you.
"'Cause, you know, I joined my brother in a crusade. Then you want to compete. Even so, I lost a lot in numbers."
Thus, the end of the massive demonic crusade came to an end with a soothing air.
But we still didn't know there was a big incident behind it.
... like you're forgetting something by the way?
◆
A few days later, after a massive crusade, we were neat in our guild.
The other adventurers were all relaxed because they could afford the nostalgia right after the massive crusade, but for some reason the air in the guild is weird today.
It looks like not only the adventurers, but the staff are standing up.
"Hey, how's the economy? I heard you crusaded the dragon.
And so came Lodi, the S-rank adventurers.
"Ah."
Yes, if I thought I'd forgotten something, I'd forgotten about Mr. Roddy.
"Hmm? What's up?
"Oh no, it's nothing. Speaking of which, how was Mr. Roddy and his men on the massive crusade? I thought you hunted a lot of S-rank demons?
Mr. Roddy and his team are an S-ranked team of adventurers.
Must have crusaded a lot of S-rank demons.
"No, we're not crusading S-rank demons this time."
"Huh?"
That's unexpected. I thought you were crusading a lot of S-rank demons.
"We were also asked by the Alliance to take the lead in crusading S-rank demons once they were around the area in charge, looking for S-rank demons. But for some reason, I didn't find anything, and I ended up fighting all the other demons I ran into while I was searching."
Yeah, speaking of which, I crusaded the S-rank demon because it was outside the designated area.
But isn't there anyone on Mr. Roddy's team who can use exploratory magic?
The array should allow us to explore the location of the demons a few kilometers around.
"Nevertheless, if they crusade the dragon, we'll lose for sure."
Ha ha, and Mr. Roddy laughs dry.
But I crusaded because it was the Green Dragon.
You didn't really wave the big hand and knock down the dragon - you can't say that.
"Well, that's over now. You hear more than that? Some nobleman is planning a coup and for some reason has turned himself in without executing it."
"Coup!?"
There's another noisy word out there.
He said that the aristocracy he was moving with had been captured in the potato crawl.
"Heh... that? But what the hell is turning yourself in without executing it?
"Everything seems to have been caused by the massive crusade between the demons who were preparing as the power of the coup"
"What do you mean, the power of the coup? It was the demons we fought, wasn't it?
Mr. Mina questions Mr. Roddy's words.
"That's it, but the coup killer used ancient secret techniques to knit out how to manipulate demons," he said.
"" "" How to manipulate demons!? ""
Hmm? Everyone sounds surprised, but the rule of demons has been studied for a long time, and there are quite a few success stories.
Of course, it's not like you can manipulate any kind of demon.
"And I'm surprised that the identity of the people who had such a concealed power was the Knights of this country"
"" "" "" The Knights are the coup!? "" ""
Unexpectedly, the sound of a loud voice turns the eyes of the people around us.
"Yeah, it looks like the informants are already getting this information and moving a lot."
So strangely enough, adventurers and staff were standing up this morning.
"The Knights who defend their country have worked scandals and even turned themselves in. The upper layers are delicate. So, they're all tingling that the clinging might come to the adventurer."
Sure, the Knights' job is to protect the country, but the bandits and the crusades of the big demons are also inherently the Knights' work.
If the Knights can no longer do such work, a massive request may come around to the Adventurers Guild.
I'm sure it's a money-making story, but it's also going to be a lot more dangerous.
"But why are you turning yourself in? If you hadn't had a coup yet, you should have kept your mouth shut."
"Oh, not only did he fail to manipulate the dragon he prepared as a trump card, but he broke his heart because he was lightly defeated."
Heh, I had a dragon for the coup.
Must have been a strong dragon, a gold dragon? Or an enchanted dragon?
"There's a hell of an adventurer out there defeating a dragon like that."
"" "" "" "" It's about you. Yikes!! "" ""
Yeah!? Why is everyone in the guild coming in!?
Isn't that the kind of dragon you use for a coup is a green dragon!?
"Damn, you saved the country, but you're too unconscious."
"Totally. Well, that sounds more like my brother."
And for some reason, everyone was scared.
