267 Chloe's interpretation

Bellatram turns his very tough gaze to Chloe as she spreads her surprise on the field with Chloe's remarks.

"What do you mean by the will of the delegate? If that word is false, it doesn't have to end up dripping outside the walls, does it?

For those of Lyons Tail, the sin of deceiving the intentions of its chief power is imminent and heavy. Those who could not believe Chloe's words even seeped in hostility. They were showering Chloe's gaze.

But Chloe had no difficulty at all, and instead laughed back.

"Whatever it means, it means exactly what it says. Until I am as talented as Representative Alice intends. Therefore, I do not think that it is necessary to explain or other shards. That's all."

Other executives reinforce Chloe's grandeur that she has no shards. Bellatram also returned his expression from hostility to skepticism.

"Well. Let's ask for an explanation, not an explanation. What made you think it was the will of the delegate? You didn't get a direct instruction from the delegate?

"That is (of course). Because we have not held such a position so far. Until I received the same instructions as you did. Ning, you're going to have a hard time understanding why you're not in action. Well, maybe it's because of my shallow talent that I don't understand your insincerity."

"What does that mean?"

"If the inquiry is not like some kind of induced interrogation, I suggest you give up that seat for the development of Lyons Tail. Branch Manager"

The venue freezes on Chloe's attitude of openly hostile to the clear superiors and selling fights. The other executives were beginning to wonder if Chloe's sanity was in doubt, or if she was really moving with Alice's intentions if she was going that far.

Silence ensues. Chloe and Bellatram both bump into each other's gaze without retreating, increasing the urgency of the place. The others are even sweating cold in the air. So Bellatram suddenly loosened the atmosphere.

"It would be good. Well, let me put my head down for you here, Professor. The intentions of the delegates are so important. If there is even a slight chance of being our shallow, non-talented act, we need to get rid of it. Tell the unschooled in detail and carefully.... I won't let you say you can't."

Bellatram told him that at the end with a straight face. So Chloe was the only one who smiled lovingly as the others fought.

"I'm scared."

And Chloe will state her own thoughts. As the story progresses, surprise, confusion and skepticism arise in the expressions of the other executives, and the half-heartedness becomes stronger. I mean, I couldn't laugh with my nose that it was absurd. One of the executives accidentally pinches his mouth.

"Isn't that your wish? I've committed so many failures. How can you say it's not a delusion that you have to think that way to overturn it"

"I won't deny that you have a desire to be. I also have a desire to contribute to the company in a more suitable position. But that's what happens no matter what you think. Isn't it the same time you're saying there's no reason to deny either, at a time when you're bringing up my aspirations and delusions on the basis of denying my thoughts?

"But you are."

"Additionally, as you should all know, Representative Alice has said: Until I arrive, to respond with the locals."

And Chloe goes on to explain the interpretation of the word. Upset ran to those who heard it.

"Furthermore, I am speaking with Olivia over correspondence. You all know about that one. And that's when Olivia stabbed me with a nail."

Chloe also went on to explain the interpretation of the advice. Lost are the other executives who hear about it, and one of them points it out with a very harsh face.

"... I understand what you're saying. But in the end, isn't it just that you can interpret it? I can't say for sure it's the will of the delegates."

It's a shame Chloe's appearance is somewhere, but she smiles (cheeks) like a subtle fool.

"Even if you told me to assure you, I'm not representing Alice. It's impossible to say for sure. But if you (you) really need an affirmation, why don't you ask the Branch Manager to cooperate and get confirmation from the representative? It is impossible under my authority, but it would be critical if it were the authority of the branch manager"

The gaze of the people gathers in Bellatram. Chloe continues on top of that.

"Well, I wouldn't even be able to. I don't want to be judged by a representative as incompetent, who can't even draw on that degree of intent."

Lost and Goto took the word from the executives, causing them to continue their silence with a rugged look.

Alice comes around the local city of Kugamayama in the vicinity of Olivia. The meeting, which was supposed to be a venue for disputing Chloe, who caused a great deal of noise at such a time, had completely lost its original purpose and had already turned into a venue for whether or not to believe Chloe's words.

Whether you were following Alice's intentions or defying her, locals, including the Eastern District III branch of Lions Tail, naturally have a good chance of drastically changing to the position of other branches, both good and bad. It required careful and bold, and irrevocable decisions either way.

And Bellatram couldn't make that decision on this occasion either.

"That shall be all for today's meeting. This will follow later. I'll be in touch."

With that word, there was a slight relief in the field. I am ahead of the decision, but I don't have enough information to make a choice. It was obvious that each of them would do everything in their power to gather information after this, and it was a relief (mostly) that gained their respite.

Bellatram turns his gaze to Udajima.

"Mr. Udajima... you were"

Udajima wandered unexpectedly under the gaze of senior executives of clearly qualified large companies.

"Yes, sir"

"We apologize for not being able to provide you with the opportunity to speak, even though you were abruptly invited to participate. However, if appropriate, please join us next time. With regard to her treatment again, I was wondering if it would be any more trouble for you. What can I say instead, I'll give you my contact information, the one on the direct line. If you want to contact me without letting her through, please feel free."

In response to that Bellatram statement, the other executives will also hand over their contact details to Udajima. The intention was to circulate information without going through Chloe, but it was undoubtedly a legend with Lyons Tail, which reinforced Udajima's position in the city of Kugamayama.

"Okay, now excuse me"

Bellatram, out of communication, disappears from virtual space. The other executives disappeared one after the other, with Chloe and Udajima remaining at the end.

Chloe laughs and tells Udajima.

"When we leave, the end of the meeting will also pass on to Kugamayama City. At that point, there will probably be people waiting outside the room. So before we do that, I want to talk to you a little bit here. Firstly, the story that if you cooperate with me, I can cooperate with you too, and now you believe me?

"... oh, let's believe it. So, what do you want from me?

"There's a lot going on, but first I'd like your permission to rendezvous with the Lattices. Actually, I made myself a cup of tea in the room, but it was either unfamiliar or creepy."

To Chloe, who smiled (cheeks) like a joke, Udajima turned back her firm face.

"..., would be good"

"Thank you. I'll sit down. Can I get you anything? Keep your secrets to yourself."

"Right..., first..."

Chloe and Udajima continued their covert conversation in virtual space for the time being.

Outside Chloe's house arrest room, city security officers were waiting for the end of the Lyons Tail meeting. At the time of the notice of termination, after having again asked Udajima to appear, he moves into custody if it is ignored. I was getting ready for that.

So the door of the room opens and Udajima comes out. And I laugh lightly at the slightly surprised sheriffs.

"No, you made me wait. I'm sorry. The meeting took so long."

A member of the Security Department responds to a void as if it were a punch.

"No, that's..., there's no choice. Dear Udajima, I ask you to accompany me at the request of Inabe. I'm sorry, but if you resist, you must detain Master Udajima."

"Oh. I know. There's nothing to run from. I'll accompany you. If you're anxious, will you restrain me?

Udajima laughed and put her hands forward. The sheriff's department shakes his head beside him in a panic.

"Yes, no, if you can accompany me, I won't have to sit down."

"Right. Then let's go."

To Udajima's grandeur, those in the Security Department performed their duties in bewilderment.

Akira looks disgusted when she hears from Kibayashi the rest of her explanation about monster certification.

"What the hell is wrong with me that my monster certification may not be lifted in Gotagota inside Kugamayama City..."

He laughed that Kibayashi was common, as opposed to Akira, who was showing even a slight grudge.

"Cities aren't run by the absolute only ones in power either. Sometimes I feel comfortable rubbing inside. Well, I guess it's a good nuisance for you."

The city of Kugamayama itself is not hostile to Akira. And Inabe is on Akira's side in one way or another. From there, however, it is well conceivable that an anti-Inabe faction would move to thwart Akira's monster decertification for the purpose of pulling Inabe's leg.

He had further taught Akira that Kibayashi was only his own personal opinion, including the power relationship between Kugamayama City and Lions Tail, Inc., and the difficulty of immediately withdrawing an application that went through the hunter's office.

It is troublesome where there is no relationship with me at all, and I am at a disadvantage because of this, but it is not something that I can solve. Akira, who understood it, exhales unexpectedly.

"I can't go back to the city for the moment. And getting into the city forcefully would be more annoying. That's a good idea, isn't it?

"That's the thing. I know you have some thoughts, but leave this story here for once. Okay, here's the real deal. Let's talk about how to sell a fight to Lyons Tail with maximum power."

It's just a story that matters to me, too, and Akira pulls herself together and makes a serious face. But I felt lightly pulled when I saw Kibayashi laughing happily in a very good mood.

"When I say maximum force, it changes depending on whether you're an individual or a group or how far you get involved, and that area also involves your senses and stuff. But in any case, it's important to improve your personal combat capabilities. So now it's time to stop raiding Lyons Tail, and wait for the gear we asked Sakashita Heavy Industries to arrive."

"... is that valid even if it's a bounty neck?

When Akira came to a slightly unexpected face that she thought was no longer viable, Kibayashi also intended to dispel Akira's anxiety.

"Naturally. There is no reason for Sakashita Heavy Industries to discard the payment of compensation to hunters because of the extent to which they received monster certification from a local city and were suspended from a branch of Lyons Tail. If you do that, the credibility of downhill heavy industry falls to the ground. If you do poorly, the hunters who are contracted to go downhill on the front line will switch to the other five companies at the same time, and their very status as the five largest companies will not be jeopardized."

"Oh, really?"

"Oh. That's all the contract is heavy. Well, if you turn the Unified Enterprise Union itself against the enemy, it would be something other than a boulder. (1) The judgment of the downhill is unshakeable due to the degree to which the company and the handling of artifacts have rubbed and killed each other. So don't worry about it."

"But surely that awesome gear didn't stand at all at the sight of the arrival?

"That's okay, too. As far as I'm concerned, you'll arrive as early as a week, usually a month, no matter how late you are, about three months."

Akira is amazed.

"You said then you didn't even know if it would arrive next year, but as early as a week?

"The reason for the delay in transportation was due to the wide area distribution regulation by downhill heavy industry, which was recently lifted. Without that, I can say about a guideline. Still, the approximate period is quite long, from one week to three months, because I don't even know the transport information for downhill heavy industry. If it's already transported close to the city, a week with a handover process or something. If you're transporting your luggage back here once to be safe, it's almost three months."

As Akira was convinced by the explanation, she nodded lightly, and Kibayashi laughed and stepped out.

"So wait till then. That Chloe guy is in Kugamayama City, so go in and ask him if he found out about the fence or the defense after he gets the frontline gear. Just wait a minute and you'll be able to fight with a force that's flashy and full of digits different from what it is now. Until then, I'm sorry, but run away."

Kibayashi rides himself out even more, and Akira pulls her body back just for that matter.

"I know I hate to run away because it's about you, but be patient. As long as you have patience with it, you can put the frustration of running around and sneaking all over the front line into the firepower, blow up the fence so badly that instead of the median compartment, you can involve your impotent (mum) recklessly in the upper compartment and ruin the ones who treated you lightly. So now, wait. You get it? You got it, right?

"Oh, oh."

Akira was a little drawn to Kibayashi's attitude, which brought her face closer together in a delightful and impatient manner. And ask them to get off topic.

"You know, Kibayashi is an employee of Kugamayama City, right? Is it okay if that official tells you to blow your city's fence off with a frontline weapon against your bounty neck?

Kibayashi, who was riding himself out with both hands on the table, regains calm to the point of putting his hips back in the chair.

"If you're talking about good or bad, bad. As an employee of the city of Kugamayama, it would be a rudeness not to be cautious."

Kibayashi laughs as she fingers the car's hunter's office mark at Akira, who accidentally looks surprised.

"But now I'm here as a hunter's office official. So no problem at all."

Kibayashi was an employee of Kugamayama City, but also an employee of the Hunter Office, who used the position well (well), and the damage caused by the bad reviews he had was lazy (kawawa) in its use.

"It's a lot to call a human bounty neck. The hunter's office will never (deliberately) come out with trinkets with a prize of about one million aurum. But if you're big enough to be monster-certified by 50 billion, mid-level ruling companies, you might interfere to avoid scattering extra damage to the east. Both try to calm down a bit, get in touch with both of them and negotiate or something. I'm still seeing you on that pretext. So while you're talking to me like this, you're safe. At least, they won't kill you for the prize money. Even if there were already hunters around here after you, the limit is to monitor them from afar. There is absolutely no sniping or anything. Safe around there."

Akira looks quite unexpected in her explanation of Kibayashi, who so affirmed.

"Really? Really? Five hundred billion, huh?

"The forehead has nothing to do with it. At the time the Hunter Office attacked its negotiators while they were negotiating because they were prize necks, it became hostile to the Hunter Office, or the Unified Enterprise Union. Even if I could kill you, they wouldn't pay me a prize. Hunter's identity is also extinguished. The account is also frozen. You're just gonna get monster certification all over the East."

Kibayashi adds an explanation to Akira, who is satisfied and is nodding lightly.

Attacking them during negotiations is an act of turning all their participants against the enemy. Before Kibayashi arrived, the fact that Goutl and his troops surrounded him as if to escort Akira also meant that negotiations were under way between Kugamayama City and Akira. They were negotiating with Akira, who was certified a monster, to stay away from the city.

Before Yo (more) also gains a pass with Lyons Tail in addition to the large sum of 500 billion Orum, I can't say enough that there will never be anyone out there who tries to kill Akira even in hostility with Kugamayama City. The Gouttles were vigilant around them to prevent it.

Think of them as your escorts until I get there. That's what Kibayashi meant when he said that to Akira, and the Goutles were actually protecting Akira.

The defense corps's job is to defend the city and not to crusade the bounty neck. As long as Akira stays away from the city, even if it's a prize neck or a monster certification from the city, she's not eligible for crusade. Additionally, it was because Kibayashi persuaded the Gouttles to do so using the identity of a Hunter's Office official as well.

In front of Akira, who was listening to those explanations with interest, Kibayashi begins to care about time.

"Now, let's get back to it, but I'm not going to keep talking about it for long either, so I'm going to tell you something that's creepy (first) if we don't talk about it here and now. You'll be on the run until your gear arrives, but if you can, stay out of the city. The equipment will be given to you once you arrive in Kugamayama City, but this information will be definitely known. So you better stay close so you can get it as soon as possible after you arrive. Don't let them attack you on your way back from afar."

"No, even if they say that, you'd have a better chance of getting attacked if you were near a city, and you wouldn't get food or ammunition unless you went to another city than you couldn't get into a Kugamayama city..."

"If you're in the vicinity, I'll turn my hand around."

"What? Are you okay with that?

Kibayashi laughs fun-fightly and deeply at Akira, who looks a little surprised somewhere.

"Well, that's it, we don't have access to food or ammunition, so we can't help but calm you down and try to settle down so you don't walk into the city. This is an act as an official of the Kugamayama city. As a hunter's office employee, it would be right not to do anything to keep your shoulders away."

The ignition line was stretched so that the explosive named Akira would end without detonation. Firepower has swelled up at the price, but I prioritized time (to) negotiate enough. Even if the negotiations ended badly and detonated, there was no choice but to harm them. Naturally, Kibayashi himself wants a big bang. Akira also knew that well from the look on their face and was pulling a little.

Kibayashi then went back to the vehicle talking a lot to Akira until the time limit. Advise Akira lightly from the driver's seat, who is already eager to cross (and) onto the bike.

"At the time I set off the vehicle, the safety that I was negotiating with the hunter's office disappeared. Well, it's a 50-billion-orum prize neck. Even if a hunter attacks you, he won't be attacked for a while because he'll take time to prepare for an investigation, but be careful."

"Okay. Are you sure you want some ammunition or something?

"Oh. I'll do it. Call me if you need anything. I'll get in touch with you in due course, so get out on the secret line I taught you. Good luck, Akira."

Kibayashi laughed and said so, moving the vehicle towards Kugamayama City.

Akira runs the bike in that opposite direction. Day one of Akira's bounty neck life began, unable to return to the city or home.

Rayna retains a rude look in her own room within the walls of Kugamayama City. But I have no affection. That gaze was directed at Bellatram, which is shown on a large display.

The Bellatram exhales in the screen.

"Doesn't look like an attitude toward the branch manager?

Rayna apologizes for being rude.

"That's rude. I also have a long life outside the walls, and I guess I don't know how to dress a lot and fall without knowing it. My apologies."

Bellatram's gaze is turned behind Raina, toward Siori and Kanae. At first, unlike Raina, who maintains an attitude towards her boss, Siori didn't hide her tough look and Kanae laughed somewhere hostile.

"I don't think your maids have the same attitude toward their executives? What happened to your loyalty to the company?

"Because my lord is a lady, my loyalty to the company is shown by my contribution to your daughter. Of course, that includes your attitude to you, right?

"Master Bellatram has been neutralized by each faction as branch manager of the Eastern District III branch of Lions Tail. On top of that, it would be enough to have a minimum of courtesy if Lady Chloe were to be neutral and non-interferent in the attack on her daughter, and if she were to be neutrally killed."

Bellatram, who reaffirmed Siori's attitude, returns his gaze to Raina. Even though Siori's attitude was natural, he increased his appreciation for Rayna and gave it a slight expression, wondering whether she had handkerchief (not) from Kanae's attitude to this problematic child.

(You mean both Chloe and Raina went outside the wall and changed? I've heard that some of the reasons for putting clan incompetence outside the walls are to encourage (to) mutations due to changes in the environment to those who are unlikely to grow within safe walls, but do they work?

Different reasons for getting out of the wall, but Raina and Chloe both caused this noise outside the wall. Bellatram remembered with mild praise and vigilance that those who were supposed to be short of taking both for themselves were trying to move the situation so much.

"You and Miss Chloe seem to have grown quite a bit outside the walls, above all else."

Bellatram shifts his gaze to Siori.

"By the way, you seem to be accusing me of a lot of things, but even though you were instructed to do so directly by the delegate, you are also acting in a manner that could be considered part of the spread of the noise in this situation. As a maid of honor of Lyons Taylor, what do you think?

"Until I arrive, be responsive with the locals. That's all you need to know about Rep. Alice. Aren't local jurisdictions your job?

The responsibility for the disturbance lies with the local people, including Chloe, that is, the branch managers who cannot contain the Eastern District III branch. Siori replied so plainly and sarcastically. Bellatram was also his own boss for once, and he had a sense that he was saying something quite rude. But as if to condone Chloe's actions, which took the card from Rayna, I couldn't hide that anger from Bellatram, who would not punish Chloe in any way.

It will return a corresponding response. Cioli thought so and was ready. But Bellatram's reaction was very different from Siori's expectations. When I see a very difficult face on the screen, I whine (crush) in a tone that slightly increases the percentage of letters from half-heartedness.

"... that's what you mean, after all?

So Rayna and the others turn into something surprising. Rayna reversed her expression back to something serious when she had a bad feeling about not returning the reprimand from Bellatram to Siori.

"Branch manager. It won't be long enough to keep talking to you and us. Could you please get down to business?

"... right. Let's get down to business. Before doing so, I will make a few excuses for sharing prerequisite information. As branch manager, I take a neutral position with each faction. Sometimes as a result of taking into account and prioritizing the company's interests, it may seem to favour certain factions, but it is all because of the company (for) and I do not intend to favour certain factions. That's why I'm not treating you cold, and I'm not treating Miss Chloe preferentially. They just respond according to their position and abilities."

"I would like to say that Chloe robbed Olivia's card from me (for the benefit of the company) and that I do not think it is a problem as a branch manager?

Raina replied that instead of Siori. He thought it would be less problematic for a clan to say than a maid from Lyons Tail to say, and that Siori's position would not deteriorate. In addition, Siori also meant to remain silent because she said so.

Cioli, who understood it, loosens the look she was unconsciously making. I noticed that Kanae was smiling slightly.

Realizing how those Siori and the others were doing, Raina cautioned not to let them laugh unconsciously. And the compromise that until now has been left to Siori, also, as the Lord of Siori, in the future, I hold back and wait for Bellatram's reply, trying to proceed on my own initiative.

So Bellatram again showed a different attitude than the Raynas expected. With a very serious look, it strongly seeps into the atmosphere of the Branch Manager, who has shouldered many powers and responsibilities.

"What matters is that it's there. Whether Miss Chloe's behavior needs to be viewed as problematic. We are compelled to make a very difficult decision as part of the Third District Branch."

"... what do you mean?

"As a matter of fact, until not long ago, I also considered Miss Chloe's behavior problematic and intended to make a disposition in the context of the meeting. I can't even tell you the details of the meeting, but let's talk about Miss Chloe's situation on the agenda."

Chloe's failed raid on Akira. that he hung a prize of 50 billion aurum in the name of the Eastern Three Districts Branch of Lyons Tail. That I let it go from kugamayama city to monster certification. That Chloe is under house arrest in Kugamayama City as an urban raider. Raina and the others who heard those stories reveal their surprise that the situation moved so much yesterday today.

"Miss Chloe's behavior has too much impact. I cannot ignore or bypass you as a person in the Third District. It's a choice of support or elimination. But the judgment material is not sufficient. For this reason, I want you to talk about everything, including how Olivia gets her cards. This is strict as the manager of the Eastern District III branch of Lyons Tail. I'll have him talk to you. Tell me what happened. From the beginning, in detail, everything."

The intimidation of Bellatram, who told him so, was so strong that he made Raina and the others fully understand that it was all that important.
