With Leitz's guidance, we were visiting the Tavern Tremps.

Tremps is a fairly large building and seems to be spacious inside.

"Speaking of which, how did Leeds get to know Shadow?

"Uh, in the time of mercenaries, right? The mercenary regiment to which I belonged was rolling all over the Meicians, but I just had the opportunity to come here. So the leader of my mercenary regiment asked Shadow's captain to do his job, so we got to know each other."

"Mercenaries ask mercenaries to do their jobs?

"Yeah. Shadow and I work differently. Shadows include intelligence gathering, manipulation, and assassination. The mercenary regiment to which I belonged is to fight in war. A mercenary regiment loses a lot when it comes to losing a battle, with more casualties or little reward for its members. In some cases, it can be devastating. As a result, we were asked to find out if we could win by gathering information, to work on it, to make it easier for us to win battles, and to take care of everything."

"Well, there's a lot going on in the mercenary corps."

"Well, in the end, the mercenary regiment to which I belonged was devastated. The captain got a little greedy because of the devastation..."

Looks like Leeds remembered a little back in the day. It would naturally not be a good memory because it is a past in which my people died. I didn't do anything to dig deep.

At the end of the conversation we went into Tremps.

Tremps seemed like a popular tavern and the store was a lot busier.

It's a large store, but there are few available seats.

This is while the sun is still high, so maybe there will be more people at night.

"It's as popular as ever. This shop..."

Sounds like you've been popular for a long time.

"Shadow was introduced to the owner of this store, so let's talk about it again"

That's what Leeds says, he walks through the store and starts heading under the store owner.

Walking in the store attracted a lot of attention.

First of all, Leetz, who is a Marka but wears fancy clothes.

Charlotte dressed like a magician even though she's a woman.

And since it's loaded with prominent elements, such as me and Lisia dressed as nobles, there's no choice.

"Something's depressing about my gaze. Can I burn it down?

I mentioned that Charlotte looked grumpy and outrageous.

Charlotte, with her face and excellent proportions, seemed to be gathering the gaze of the men.

"You don't know what to do. Leave me alone enough to be seen. If you feel an atmosphere that is likely to cause harm, allow yourself to fight."

"Yes... ahhh depressing..."

Charlotte replied in a frustrating manner.

I thought you basically had a warm personality when you were in the mansion, but there are some extraneous dangerous aspects to it. Though today may just happen to be a bad place for bugs.

Though it attracted attention, there was nothing in particular to try to do harm.

And we get under the store owner.

"It's been a long time. Mr. Alex."

Reetz spoke to a muscular middle-aged man who had grown a fine mustache.

Is that the man who owns the store?

The shopkeeper, called Alex, looks at Leeds with suspicious eyes.

"Marka...... Could it be Leeds? I was in the Clement Mercenaries."

"Yes, it is"

"Were you alive? I heard the clientele were almost dead and disbanded."

"The Clement Mercenaries did break up, but I'm alive. Now he's a minister to the Lovents."

"Minister? The Rovents. Hey, isn't that the house that does Lord Lamberg? Why are you again... No, wait! I heard Lamberg has a terribly strong Marka minister, but it's about you."

"Probably."

"I see. If it was, there would be rumors like that. You said no one in the climb is stronger than you.

Um, could there be a current Lovent owner back there? I'm sure the previous prince died and the child succeeded him. "

"I'm Ars Lovent. The Lovent principals, the masters of Leeds."

"Oh, thank you very much. I'm Alex Tremps. I'm a liquor store owner."

Alex has bowed his head and said hello.

"So, what does it look like today?

"I'm here to ask Shadow for a job"

When Leeds said that,

"Uh, well..."

Alex had a troubled look on his face.

"What's up?

"No. When Clement was asking for a job, Shadow's captain retired about two years ago."

"Yes!?

Leeds is astonished.

"Wasn't that the guy who felt like working life? Did you even get hurt?

"No, I retired because I had a daughter-in-law. I can't do such a dangerous job anymore."

"Really, you're in trouble..."

"No, the captain is retired, but Shadow is still alive. Well, the retirement of the captain has triggered the loss of more than one member, and it has become something else."

"Is the new shadow good in arms?

"A few steps above the old shadow."

"A few steps up.........? Um, Shadow was a very skilled mercenary regiment, but more than that?

Like half-heartedness, Leeds asks.

"Oh, there's a guy who's now head of Shadow's regiment, but that's a real genius. The genius is a good teacher and has a higher level of membership. I've never heard of him failing a request since he became captain."

"So much?"

"It's just the one that's changed more than the previous captain, and I have no idea the criteria for not taking requests. If I don't see him, I can't guarantee he'll take it."

"Can I see that captain?

"Oh, I'll take the brokerage fee. And I can't see him now. I'll see you at night."

"Are you coming to this store at night?

"No, actually, I'm still in this store. I have this weird obsession that I'm not going to take my job as a shadow until nightfall. I can't tell you who the captain is until nightfall, but maybe I can look for him. I don't think so."

Well, it's not normal to know that there are only so many people.

However, in my case, I have appraisal skills.

Being said to be a real genius naturally would also have a high status.

At least martial arts are likely to transcend ordinary people.

Doesn't make sense to look for it if you don't get a request at night, but you'll be free until night, so you might want to look for it at last.

Then we'll have to wait in this shop until nightfall.

"Hey, it's easy to understand. There's something for me to eat and drink while I wait. Sounds a little early, but I have some juice, so I'll serve it."

"Okay, let me do that."

I pay the brokerage fee.

After that, I asked for desserts such as juice and fruit, and I arrived at the table and waited for it to be evening while everyone ate.

I looked at the people in the store in an appraisal to see who was the leader of the shadow.

There are a lot of people in the store. I looked it up from one end, but no one with that kind of status.

I finished checking on almost everyone who was in the store, but they weren't there. Maybe my idea that martial arts should be high was wrong.

I don't know my ability to gather information.

I'm getting a little tired, and I'm trying to give up.

My throat was getting dry, so I called the clerk who was nearby to get some water.

"It's water. Yes, sir."

There is plenty of water around here, so you can drink it at a cheaper price.

Speaking of which, you didn't appraise this clerk.

Still a young girl, about a year or two older than me.

Dark-haired ponytail. Your appearance is jumping through and not a pretty girl, but it's usually a level you can call a pretty girl.

There's no way a kid like this would be the leader of Shadow on a boulder.

I'm going to stop appraising, but I tried.

Then,
