Ryuugoroshi no Sugosuhibi

"Good morning, Mr. Korske"

I stopped pinching my mouth when it came to theatre, and Kosuke thought of doing it even if I asked for some pompous time.

Wiale called me when I even came to the front desk to say it was time to go out.

I return my greetings with a little surprise about that.

"What are you doing here? Besides, who's next door?

He leans his neck towards both the fact that he came to the inn without a foretaste and the stranger, not the usual meeting place.

"This man is like our brother.

I've already left the orphanage to be alone, but occasionally they come and see how everyone's doing with donations and souvenirs. "

"Well, why is someone like that here? Maybe you've come to visit Weale's first job?

"No, I'm not that worried."

Right? and look next door.

"No, I feel a little worried, though."

The man denied the words of Wiale.

"Nice to meet you first. I call it a consult. Everyone in Weale and the orphanage seems to be taking care of you."

"No, I didn't do much."

"No, no, I asked my father. You know, you went somewhere dangerous to help the kids."

"Oh, anybody would go for those occasions."

They praise and humble themselves repeatedly.

"We can't talk about it, so let's not do that."

"Mm-hmm. Do you want to get down to business?

I'm here today because I have a favor to ask. "

"Please? Not through the guild?

"I'm also asking the guild to make sure there's one person I can trust.

When I talked to my father about it, he and Wiale recommended you. "

"You said yesterday you didn't have to go to one for a while, did you?

So I was hoping you'd take Brother Conn's request. "

Wiale looks at Kosuke with both hands together.

"I did tell him about the play at the moment, so I told him it was okay.

You can't take anything that takes too long, can you? You can't leave me alone. "

"The detention period is ten days. We have seven days to travel and three days to work.

The request is for escort. The place to go is a ruin.

I'm a scholar. I'm going to go to the ruins and investigate. "

When I heard the word ruins, I suspected that it would not be another request to train Kosuke in guild development.

The suspicion is out-of-target. Exactly. The guild humans aren't free that far, and they don't prioritize Kosuke.

"If you find an undiscovered spot, do you want me to explore it?

"You might say it when you find it, but basically you can think of it only as an escort.

No request will be made if the detention period is to be greatly exceeded. It's a dead relic of the adventurers, so I don't think you'll ever find it. "

"Then I guess I can take it"

"Thanks"

Consut grinned as if relieved. The same goes for Wiale.

"When are we leaving?

"Since this afternoon"

"Morning!?

"Sorry for the sudden"

"Is it also for any reason?

"A scholar soul who wants to go to the ruins and find out quickly hurries us!

"... Really?"

Kosuke is weakened by the answers that prioritize his desire for knowledge.

"Where am I supposed to go when I'm ready for the trip?

"There are several carriages lined up at the main entrance, so you can see them at a glance."

"Well, I'll be there later,"

"Yes, thank you so much for taking the request"

That said, Consut bows his head and then leaves the inn.

"Why does Weale stay?

"Trying to help me get ready"

"Oh, thanks.

Oh, no. Is Weare following this request?

Wiale shakes her neck to the side. I was listening to him from the consult beforehand, and I decided I couldn't.

"I'll stay. Because a request for an escort won't do you any good.

There seems to be someone in charge of chores. "

"Oh well.

Take care of the kids in the orphanage for the next ten days?

"I'm going to let you work at Mr. Crosani's."

Crosani and I are painters that Weale is very kind to.

As she went along with Yusuke and did a lot of work, Wiale discovered the work she was good at.

That's work on color.

When she was in the ramp for something about color, she asked the Wiales, who happened to be here to deliver paint ingredients, for their thoughts, and the answer was what made her point. That brings Wiale to the brink, where Crosani often asks her thoughts, opening her talent for color.

This job will be to increase the variety of paint.

Get ready, you two leave the inn. Even when it comes to preparation, I only do a little sorting of the luggage I was packing. I relaxed and talked. But I had plenty of time to spare and the preparations were over.

Instead of going straight to the rendezvous point, buy a preserved meal, have a little early lunch, and then leave the city. Along the way, I could tell I was Wiale.

I put my face on one seat, told him I was going to take the request, and then I headed to the concert.

"Hello -"

I found a concert in the carriage passenger's seat reading the seating documents and called out.

"Oh? Are you here yet?

"Already? You said departure afternoon."

Aha and slapped his forehead with his hand, and Consut bowed his head.

"This was my bad way of putting it, I'm sorry.

After lunch, we'll get ready to go. So the adventurers should have had them come after that.

My buddy hasn't come home from lunch yet. You have more than an hour to go. "

"An hour. It's a long time to wait, and a short time to hang out in the city.

... I guess I'll just wait and relax.

Oh, yeah. Does Mr. Consult know what demons will be out there by the time he gets to his destination? If you know what I mean, I'd like to know. "

"It's not much different from this one.

The extent to which there are dive hoppers and needle bushings in addition to ratsmonkeys and fur docks "

"I don't know the two guys behind me, so I need you to tell me."

"Fine."

Dive hoppers are bats the size of rabbits. It is rare to move alone, usually acting in groups of five to ten. The head is the hardest in the body, jumping high and tapping the head with the momentum of the fall.

Nearly a hundred dive hoppers have ever flown and driven a group of mercenaries to destruction. I have such a record.

Needlebush is a monster that simulates like a bush. Stay still until the prey approaches, and when you make it in time, upside down and poke your thatchy body hair like a needle rat.

In the bush, this demon could be waiting for you if you find a grass that looks brown even though it's not dead.

In addition to these, we will also hear geographic information such as hazardous locations until we reach the site. I also heard brief information about the adventurers I hired.

Those who were going to dinner while they were doing so also returned and began to prepare for their departure.

"Ah, here comes another adventurer.

Shouldn't we introduce ourselves or something?

The distance between the two narrowed a little after an hour of talking, and I stopped talking too politely.

"Mm, I'm coming"

I carry my luggage and walk to the adventurers walking here.

There are five hired adventurers, including Yusuke. Protect the eight consultants with the five of them.

According to the consult, there seems to be a threesome and one. The threesome is two men and one woman. The combination of the elderly as parents and whether it's time to be alone. The one who came alone to take the request was a fourteen-year-old boy, who ran out completely.

"Hello, my name is Yusuke Wakase, and I'm supposed to work with you"

Older people react to the name.

"You're the guy who's been rumored lately when it comes to wasps.

I heard you were young, but I still thought you were over twenty. "

"This is still about to be eighteen, right?

I wonder if they're looking at me once in a while.

"Really, I was wondering if it was a little further down"

"I've been told that many times."

"You must all be wrong because you're a child's face"

Yusuke is not a special child face. As a Japanese, it's standard. I guess it's something similar to looking young from a European or American perspective.

"I'm Tony. These two babysitters or something like that.

This is Lyle, that's Elias. "

Tony points to them and introduces them.

Besides, Elias bows his head without showing any special reaction, and Lyle bows his head while showing dissatisfaction with the part called babysitting.

"Well, the other one's not under my jurisdiction, but it seems to be rushing out, so I decided to take care of him for a bit while we were together.

They say Holton. "

Introduced Holton bowed his head as he stiffened himself to tension.

"Regards"

Yusuke bows his head again toward the four of them.

"Can I ask you something?

"Go ahead."

"When we were gathered for job descriptions, there weren't any wasps, were there? Why not?"

"When was the explanation?

"Yesterday."

"I can't do that. I was hired today.

This morning, someone I know and a scholar here came to the inn, and they asked me to do it. "

"In the morning...... well undertaken, huh? Such a sudden job."

Tony is not the only one surprised by the story, but the other three as well.

"You're about to say that a scholar couldn't say no to someone like my brother I know.

Besides, I wasn't asking for anything else. "

"Right. I guess my client would have liked a few more people.

You're welcome to have more people even with me. "

"I've never asked for an escort, so I don't know how to move."

"Really? I heard you're making a lot of requests."

It's a mixed rumor that doesn't tell if it's true or a lie when you're listening.

"You have a lot of chores. It's almost all you can do in the city.

If you give me directions, I'll do the right thing. Your health is like an idiot, so give me whatever you want.

Mr. Tony, I think you've had some escort experience. It would be smoother to follow the experience, wouldn't it?

"That helps. I don't mean to be impotent, but it's troublesome to be moved as you please.

Lyle, follow your instructions in case of an emergency. "

"I know!

I reply even though I turn away.

Yusuke asked in a low voice if he was unfriendly, and Tony shook his neck to the side.

According to Tony's story, the truth is that Lyle and Elias were the only ones to take this request. But the rest of us were worried and put Tony as a follower.

Lyle doesn't like it. As for Lyle herself, I meant to be alone, but it was a feeling that was inspired by that confidence.

Elias has similar thoughts, but he also felt reassured that someone would follow him.

"I think it's a pleasure to have someone to rely on."

Looks like I heard Yusuke's thoughts, and Lyle stares at Kiki Yusuke.

"No, 'cause if someone has knowledge that I don't know, would that help you a lot? Someone else with skills that I don't have."

"Well, that's true..."

"You just have to be as lucky to have someone convenient"

Tony, handled as a convenient person, is smiling bitterly.

"I've done this before if you're an escort, and we're the only ones who'll be fine!

So he yells and Lyle turns his back. Elias bows his head to Kosuke and forgives Lyle.

It wasn't that Lyle wasn't motivated either, so I decided not to go into this matter. Decide it won't be a leg job because I'm a pro.

Eventually, you're ready to leave, and one of the scholars will speak up.

"The line has the carriage in the center with me and Holton forward. Lyle and Elias left and right. I think the wasp is going to stay behind me.

Any disagreements on this?

Tony explains the formation. No one disagrees, your mouth won't open.

"If you see anything strange, call me. No shouting then.

I'm gonna go tell Holton, so tell him what happened.

If the demons are after us, just let us know out loud. "

The four nodded, about their placement.

And the line leaves.

One line goes well. I've assumed an encounter with the demon, so it won't be unplanned.

The demons I encountered came only from what I had heard was coming.

Tony, who knew there was going to be something like that with Yusuke, who was asking about the dive hopper, was also able to deal with the dive hopper falling because he was also watching the sky, and it was not an ambush.

In the battle until we reached our destination, each fighting force was able to grasp each other.

Most of all, Kosuke did not do everything he could. Still far beyond Lyle's power, Lyle had a jealous gaze.

It was Kosuke and Tony who had no problems at all in the fight. These two had defeated each other with a single blow without struggling with the demons they encountered.

If Lyle and Elias are also in between what they are good at, there is no problem.

Lyle specializes in melee with swords and Elias in mid-range to long-range with bows. These two had been fighting well together for a long time and following each other smoothly because they knew each other.

Holton would have worked hard for the first time. It was a lot of things, but we all knew it was like that. With Tony's advice, it's growing a little bit.

Holton's weapon is a sword, and Tony has a spear and a sweeping knife, as well as several types of magic.

Tony doesn't seem to have that much magic, he doesn't use anything powerful. It was mainly used as a means of restraint and disorientation.

"They'll be here tomorrow."

"I see. I'm glad we haven't had any particular problems so far."

"Right."

Yusuke and Tony are both talking on the lookout. Everyone but you is whispering because they are asleep.

If it's true, Holton was supposed to be on the lookout, too, but he's physically and mentally tired with an unfamiliar escort, and he's been removed from the lookout since yesterday with both recommendations.

"You were strong, that's one factor that wasn't a problem. Thanks to this I was able to concentrate on following Holton.

That's all I can do with my youth, and I'm going to be able to make a name for myself all over the world soon. "

"I'm not interested in the world or anything."

"If you're a man, why don't you do something big and become famous?

"Sometimes I thought so."

I've vaguely wanted to do something big when I was on Earth. That is nothing more than a delusion without a clear vision.

But I came here by chance to get something big, and I could be sorry for my delusions.

Then I got carried away. I don't have the strength I've worked hard to gain, so I feel backwards. I haven't even taken pride in my own power yet. As long as these things don't dissolve, they will continue their mediocre days as they are now.

Yusuke is not dissatisfied with it either.

"So far, I'm going to take it easy."

"I'm calm. I don't think it's a good idea to be more embarrassed. Like Lyle."

"Let's just say it's all about personality."

That's what I'm gonna do.

"Why can't you teach me magic in your spare time?

I thought it might be useful to have a breeze. "

During the battle Tony collapsed after hitting a strong wind on the falling dive hopper. That alone drastically reduced the damage caused by dive hoppers.

Kosuke saw it and wanted to have the power to do no damage and become powerless.

"That's good.

I want you to tell me what you can use, too. What can you use?

"Flying, metastases, penetrating rays, protective junctions, healing systems. And then there's magic that you can use on a daily basis."

"Is it possible that the magic qualities are also high?

Tony has a frightened face to the magic that Yusuke cited.

It's not just the average person, but there's a mix of things that can't be used by third-class adventurers, too.

"The average person level is over."

"That's all I can do, so it wouldn't be weird to be more famous.

Why are you taking all the chores?

"I've been asked that question many times.

Each time, he replies that safety comes first. You don't have to take dangerous requests to live. "

As Yusuke himself has somehow figured out lately, he tends to try to avoid anything that involves a life-threatening crisis unconsciously. I don't know why that is, but I try to follow it. I feel better about it.

"Then why don't you just put yourself in some certain position, not an adventurer?

'Cause I'm not settling in Bellassen.

"If you're moving around, how can you get a job?

No, I think we can still do business. "

"Well, it's easiest to get a chore request.

What should I do if I go into business? "

"With all that strength, it's okay outside the city, so we can go hunting and sell meat to butchers or something?

Birds and deer may be commonly refused to buy, but rare, for example, Jewel birds, should be sold higher.

That's how I earned my money when I didn't have one, too. Sometimes you ask for something like that.

As a butcher, I think it's a good idea to get good meat on a regular basis. "

I guess I wasn't asked to do that by a butcher I knew because I wasn't known to have the strength. If they knew I was strong, they would have asked me to.

"I see, I also have a request for that. I didn't notice because I saw all the requests I could make all over the city."

The watch time went by, listening to other requests that seemed like they could be made into business.

They haven't noticed that Lyle was listening to some of the stories between them.

One line arrives in ruins after noon the next day. Weeds cover the ground and the buildings are all about to decay. It's a quiet place that doesn't make people feel signs.

This is a place abandoned nearly a hundred years ago. The reason I abandoned it was because of drinking water and the spread of the disease. Ten years ago there was an investigation, and it was decided that it was possible to live again, but no one wanted to live in ruins, and it remained abandoned. The Knights of the Country come around, so the bandits and so on don't even use them for safe houses. If anyone, is it enough for a traveler to spend the night looking for a roof?

Just like such travellers, a row is based in one of the ruins.

While setting up, Kosuke and Konsut are talking.

"The investigation starts tomorrow?

"I'm going to see the crime scene after this, but the full investigation starts tomorrow."

"Does the escort need to be among the ruins?

"Right. There's no one here, but the demons could be in there, so I'll have them come."

"I heard by the time I got here that this was a place that was abandoned a hundred years ago, but a ruin a hundred years ago is younger as a ruin, right?

Look it up. You don't know what's so important?

"It's been abandoned for a hundred years, but this city itself has three hundred years of history.

That's not why you're young. "

"Oh well. I forgot about the history of the city itself."

A line that has been set up leaves a luggage number and heads to the abandoned temple. There may be demons, so Kosuke, Lyle and Elias are traveling around the scholars. The other two remain as base escorts.

Neither has this temple been taken care of, and old fashioned everywhere has collapsed. The size is smaller than the temple I went to as a practice.

"Isn't this going to be the end of the investigation soon?

Consult denies Elias' words.

"There was an underground here, and that one is getting wider. So it won't be over soon.

Let me show you to that entrance. "

With the adventurers surrounded, a row heads for the underground staircase.

Check your position and keep walking around the temple. The scholars are pointing this way and discussing it. The adventurers listen to it and remain vigilant for escorts.

I looked around the whole way, and the line went back to base.

A full investigation begins the next day.

Even so, that day, Kosuke hasn't gone underground with a base escort with Holton.

"What was it like underground?

Ask Tony who went yesterday if he has any precautions before going.

"Naturally but dark, temperatures are low, wind flow is difficult to understand. This is the place.

The demon seemed to be in there, too. There were so many signs, I felt like I didn't show up. You must be a cowardly demon. "

"If you're on guard, doesn't that seem like a problem?

"Right. That was fine yesterday.

Me and Koske are on, so you don't have to be nervous, okay?

That's what I say and slap Holton on the shoulder.

"Ha, ha!

Looking at the bee holton, Kosuke and Tony laughed small.

After traveling underground, Kosuke gets permission to use the magic of light extensively. The radius of ten meters is as bright as it is outside. Tony asks if the amount of magic left is okay.

"Are you okay with using it so much?

"It's okay. I haven't lost 10%."

"I'm so proud of you. If I do the same thing, 30% will be gone."

"This consumes less magic, doesn't it?

"The controls are so sweet, they consume extra."

"I see. If it's dusty, it's him."

"Looks like we're both moving."

Holton talks to the two people he's talking to.

"Oh, sorry."

"Thanks for letting me know"

"No."

Tony and Holton lead the way, Kosuke walks to the rear and the line goes to today's investigative location.

We arrived in a large room. It was probably also used in the warehouse. Broken items are falling all over the place.

It was hard on Yusuke's eyes, but not on the scholars. It's an important historical document. Get close to them quickly and take them carefully in your hands.

"I'm protecting this place, so will you two look around?

Maybe the demons are hiding. "

Copy that.

"Wow, I get it!

Kosuke leaves the big room and walks down the hallway with Holton, who is still nervous.

I will look inside the other rooms. Be careful not to touch items because you don't know which ones are valuable when doing so.

And as he examines the fifth room, Kosuke, who finds the pit, tells Holton where it is and gives instructions not to go near it.

But Holton, who hooked his leg to the heavy desk, fell and fell into the hole. And there's a big scream.

"It's okay!?

"My arm hurts so bad"

I guess it's a pain-tolerant reply, a powerful one.

Yusuke also goes down the hole.

Holton keeps his back on the wall, holding down the upper arm of the painful arm, seeping and withstanding the sweat.

"I'm gonna touch your arm, okay?

"Yes."

Snuff your teeth so you can tolerate the pain.

My arm has a fever and is swollen.

I knew immediately what the condition was.

"You're broken. But it's okay, because I can treat it right away."

"Too much for a book hit!?

Seeing Yusuke nodding instantly, he gave a relief look while remaining distorted.

Yusuke summons the knowledge taught by Horn and begins treatment.

Severe pain is expected to pull the arm straight to prevent the bone from bending and sticking. Have the cloth included in your mouth to avoid injuries to your mouth while eating your teeth.

"How much?"

Holton snorts in his eyes.

The moment Kosuke pulls his arm, Holton groans loudly.

Hearing that, Yusuke also accidentally distorts his face. Palpate the broken area with your free hand and use magic to make sure the fractured area is not off.

After the treatment, I exhaled one.

"That's it"

"Yes, but thank you."

"I think the pain will last a little longer.

Just in case you don't move this arm today. I know it won't break again, but sometimes the pain will come back. "

Holding a nodding holton, Yusuke uses flying magic and puts a hole in it.

After finishing the lookout, the two return to Tony. Tell him about the injury and send him to base to put Holton to rest.

There were no such events that day other than Holton's injuries, and I completed my investigation.

The next day was no big deal either. Lyle would have been a little twitchy. Whatever it was, Kosuke and Tony tilted their necks, but they didn't pursue it. The light came around the next morning. Even after breakfast, Lyle and Holton didn't show up.

"That's crazy?

"I'm starting to get ready to pull it up, where have you been? And don't even eat breakfast."

"Elias, did you see the two of them somewhere?

Tony asks, wondering if you wouldn't know.

"Uh, the, uh"

Obviously the behavior of knowing something.

I wouldn't let these behaviors just wander around.

Tony finds out more about what he thinks is going on.

Elias also honestly confessed, as he seemed never to have thought of hiding it.

"Actually, I've been going to what looks like a hidden room in the temple since last night..."

"What? That's not what I heard about the stash room, is it?

It was Holton who found him. I realized there was something in the fallen hole.

When I leaned my back against the wall, I pushed my back with momentum, but the echoes at that time made me wonder if there was room beyond the wall.

Yusuke didn't notice because he didn't touch the wall.

"I'm sorry! Lyle asked me to shut up!

But as soon as I saw him a little, he said he'd come home!

"Is that why you said you wanted to keep an eye out yesterday?"

Tony gave a frightened look and sighed.

"That stupid, unsolicited act of yours!

The three go and tell the scholars what's going on.

Apologize about Lyle, who acted unsolicited in concealing the information, and ask permission to pick him up.

"You have no choice. Please go."

"Thank you!

I'll even make Lyle and Holton apologize when I get back! Do anything with a complaint or a reduced reward!

Tony bowed his head over and over again, showing his appreciation in attitude.

"Koske, will you come with me?

"Fine."

"What about me?

"Elias is an escort here. There is a problem with not having one escort left. Besides, it's hard to handle bows indoors.

Until today, no demons have struck, but that's why you're distracted, right?

"Okay."

Elias nodded with a tempered look.

"Okay, I'm coming."

"Two, please."

After dropping the two off at the temple, Elias goes up to the roof just outside the base and begins his vigilance.

Guided by Yusuke, he runs to a pit with a hidden passage.

"Right here. You have a horizontal hole. Looks like you two are definitely here."

"Let's go too."

Jump down and enter the horizontal hole.

The two speak in a whisper as they continue down the aisle.

"It's just a hole, but it's not a pit."

"Really?

"Oh, there was no trap anywhere else, was there? It's weird that it's just over there.

Maybe that was just hiding a hole. The old lid over time must have made it look like a pit.

Isn't this the only reason we haven't found this horizontal hole before is because there wasn't a guy caught in the trap?

"I wonder if that's the case.

Oh, the arrow's dropping. "

A single arrow is falling on the floor. Looking around, several other arrows had fallen. In addition to the arrows, I also found part of the floor caved in. I guess this was the trap activation switch.

The two pick up arrows.

"There's blood on it. Looks like you two are hurt."

"... looks dry and ineffective, but you're poisoned"

Tony said when he saw the powder that caught the claw and adhered to it.

"If it's a minor injury, Lyle can do something about it, but it can't even be poisoned. Better hurry up and rendezvous."

Yusuke nods and hurries ahead.

The two stop at once. The passage is divided into two hands.

Look at the floor and explore where you're going in your footsteps.

"I guess there are more footprints on the right"

"Well, you turned back because something was going on."

"Well, to the left."

There was a body of a demon before the two moving on.

It's a demon that turned up blemishes, and they're not that strong in tony stories.

Mimizu is good for the field, but this one also attacks vegetables eaters and scatters. It's only harmful. If you watch out for surprise raids from the ground, the two of you won't seem to struggle either.

"Maybe this means there's a hole in the wall."

Floors and walls are made of stone, and this demon doesn't have the power to just eat and break them.

"You think all the other demons have broken in?

"Maybe. It could have been positioned. Artificial demons would have lacked magic."

"No one's gonna fix it because they left me alone."

Moving on further, we move on as we disarm the Lyles from getting in the way because we might rush them back to find the trap they avoided, or defeat the demons that the Lyles couldn't seem to defeat.

We will see the immaturity of the Lyles, finding other signs of kicking without being able to unlock them, or knowing the glitch of missing a potentially worthwhile ornament.

Looking at these, Tony had come to the conclusion that Lyle was still half a serving.

"You surprised me earlier."

"I'd be surprised if I could just be surprised."

Tony gives a frightened look to Yusuke, who said with a laugh.

I fought a demon named Crustacean Roundworm a while ago, and it came round and set up a body hit. Kosuke was able to predict such a method of attack from the appearance of a Dango worm, but he was distracted and avoided by the fact that he bumped into him at a faster rate than expected.

Being Kosuke, who is not heavily equipped, Tony worried that he had been seriously injured or close to it, but what he worried about was futile when Kosuke stood up in an indescribable manner.

"Hmm?"

"What's up? Did I make it any worse?

Tony asks Yusuke, who leaked his questionable voice.

"I heard a noise"

"Really? Doesn't sound like me."

"Hmm... I knew I could hear you"

Clarify your ears and you'll still know it's not a mishearing.

Kosuke caught the sound of something heavy moving.

"Which one is it from?

"Follow me."

Run in the lead of Kosuke. Traps and demons are ignored. After five minutes, Tony also sounded like him.

"Something's moving with a certain feeling. Pretty heavy stuff."

"There's a big demon, maybe he's after the Lyles."

"That's possible. Let's hurry."

Yusuke nods and increases his speed even more.

Running for another three minutes or so, the two arrived at the top of the fuzzy hall. There are eight meters downstairs.

Under his eyes, the Lyles were being driven around by stone statues about four metres long. It is not a boneless statue, but a stone statue that is as smart and a work of art as a statue of a rigid man.

"You're not moving well, you still have poison all over your body"

"Discussion is more, let's go help!

"Well, wait. I want to avoid being the feathers that will chase us around without any help."

Stop Yusuke trying to jump.

"Why don't we just take him down?

"... don't say it lightly, you won't be able to. I'm not so sure."

"I think I can do it."

"Can you do it?

"I don't feel like losing."

In response to Kosuke's uncomfortable response, Tony could not decide whether he was reckless or brave. Lyle's screams pushed Tony's back to get lost.

"... All right! Buy me some time, please. You don't have to try to overthrow me.

I'll grab the rope from here and take you both this far. Speak up when it's over, good luck until then!

"You can use flying magic, so if you just want to help, I'm good enough on my own, right?

"... that's what you said you could use.

Well, thank you very much. "

"Copy that!"

Using magic, Kosuke jumps out to travel to Lyle's side.

And it fell as-is. Magic didn't work.

"Huh?"

"What?"

With a face like that, Yusuke fell, and Tony dropped Yusuke off with a face curious as to whether he could use flying magic.

With the sound of falling to the ground, Tony returns to sanity and looks down in a hurry.

"Are you all right!?

"It's okay, I'm so surprised!

Tony stroked his chest down relieved as he slapped the dust on his clothes and waved Kosuke cheerfully.

"Say hello to your earlier operation!

Speaking to Tony, Kosuke runs toward the stone statue without even hearing back.

Tony, entrusted, hurries to strike the iron pile, fixing and passing down the rope to it, striking the pile that scaffolds the wall.

Now that he had turned around, Tony saw Yusuke hitting the stone statue, which had moved better than earlier, before running to the Lyles.

"You moved it. Will it take a little longer?"

Avoiding imminent giant fists and legs, Kosuke turned his gaze to Tony.

There's plenty of room for Yusuke. Thanks to the fact that the stone statue makes no special attacks, only common attacks such as punches and kicks. Neither are those attacks particularly fast. It's not too late, but if you look closely, it's easy to avoid.

"You can keep avoiding this, but I'd also like to see how much I can do because I'm so calm"

It's not like I can't afford it when I'm on a violet valve, and I don't know if I can afford these situations in the future, so Kosuke decided that it would be a good opportunity to stop her legs and bump into the stone statue.

"First of all, it's a power comparison! Bring it on!

Put the hand of the one who does not have a sword forward and receive a huge fist approaching from overhead.

I was pushed by weight difference and slipped through the floor, but when I stepped on it, I could stop it. I was just pushed, and there's nothing one injury.

"There's nothing I can do about the weight difference, but there's plenty of room, and it doesn't seem like losing compared to the power"

Pull the force out of the hand you are pressing. The fist of the stone statue is carried down by Kosuke as it is. Kosuke backs down and avoids it, kicking the fist in front of him.

The kicking momentum seemed to be more than the power of the stone statue, and the arm hit the body of the stone statue without being stopped by the stone statue. The shock causes a big crack in the arm and torso. There appears to be no pain in the stone statue and the shards wield without sheltering their falling arms. Just avoid it and the cracks will spread and become useless.

"Next up is exercise performance!

Quickly approaching the stone statue, Kosuke jumps to momentum, steps on the stone statue's knees, further steps on his arm and lands on his shoulder.

Avoid fists trying to knock them off by moving the narrow range of your head and shoulders.

"even unstable scaffolding can only move this far"

Jump off your shoulders and land one spin in the air.

"No health problems"

You're right, I'm not out of breath one.

A fist full of cracks looms as Kosuke looks up at the stone statue at his leisure.

In contrast, Kosuke also grabbed his fist and punched him into a giant fist.

Big fists and small fists hit each other, and the stone statue fists smashed without withstanding a second.

Yusuke approaches the stone statue again as the stone pieces splash, waving his sword with both hands.

The sword swung to the top of the tibia, scattered with uncomfortable sounds and sparks, but without losing momentum, left a piece of skin and slashed it.

The barely connected legs were lightly torn apart when a stone statue moved to attack approaching Kosuke.

The stone statue, which is no longer balanced, has fallen in and can only move once.

"If I crush your head, will it stop?

I double-crossed my head because I can't spot weaknesses, even though I don't think they would be structured differently than humans.

The control device or something seemed to be on my mind, and the stone statue stops the movement.

Later, the scholars' investigation showed that the stone statue absorbs magic and moves. Absorb the magic magic used in the room where Yusuke and the others are located. That's why I couldn't use magic.

Konsut tried to report this finding to Kosuke, but Kosuke was away at a bad time. In the end, it was months away that I found out why I couldn't use magic.

"Ah."

Look at the sword. Kosuke speaks up.

The blade on the side of the stone statue is missing and crumbling.

I have to fix it again.

He sighs one more sigh that Clares might be angry at him, delivers it to his sheath, and walks to the three of them.

Kick and run up the pile to scaffold without the rope.

"How are you two doing?

"Ah, oh. The injury was treated.

The poison isn't like reducing your health. Go on, just paralyze your body, so you can leave it alone.

How's it going over there? It was raging around. "

"I'm... not unusual."

I touched all parts of my body to find out if there was any pain and then I answered.

"There's so much out of the standard. You didn't lie about knocking down the violet valve."

Tony with such expressions as being supreme here.

Unlike Tony like that, Holton has a frightened look. He was scared of Yusuke, who could only run around and lightly defeated the existence that made him think he might die here.

The remaining Lyle is clearly jealous. I guess I envy strength. This is all the more so because there is so much difference in power in the same age.

This feeling was something Tony could understand. When I was a bloody young man who believed I could go anywhere and had no doubt, I pursued strength and had feelings of jealousy and envy for those who were stronger than me.

Looking at Lyle, Tony feels nostalgic about when he remembered the compromise.

"Uh, I'm sorry I'm soaking up some mood.

I'd like to know if we can pull back soon or take a short break. "

Hear Holton's gaze painfully. I've never been frightened before, and I'm a little shocked. Lyle's gaze of jealousy is better.

"Right, that's a break. We'll be fine, but it'll be hard for both of us to walk."

All right, nod. Kosuke sits back and explores the backpack. Find what you want immediately and give it to Lyle and Holton.

"An antidote I got from someone I know. I don't know if it works for the poison in my body, but take it."

This is what Horn gave me. It's a horn made medicine with high skill and knowledge in medicine, it won't do anything.

After about five minutes of actual drinking, Lyle and the others realized that the paralysis would pull off one by one. After twenty minutes, I could move almost fine.

"Looks like we're both ready to move, and we're going home."

"That's right."

Kosuke gets hit in the body when he says he looks old to Tony, who says he's going to get up a little bit.

"... can you go home without any fruit!

"Hey, what!?

Kosuke was surprised by Lyle, who suddenly stood up out loud.

"Uh, I know what you're trying to say, but I'm trespassing and vandalizing around on my own. You're not gonna forgive me any more selfishness, are you?

"But!"

"Hmm... then forgive me if I just look at the end of that door"

At the tip of Tony's finger is a pedestal where a stone statue supposedly stood, with a door behind it.

"If you don't even acknowledge this concession, I'll stun you here and take you home. You might even break one of your bones."

"... ok"

Lyle nods and moves like reluctantly. I've been stunned before, so I really know I'll do it.

Next to Tony and the others passing down the rope, Kosuke jumped down and landed lightly.

That brings out another difference in power and makes Lyle even more jealous.

Lyle never worked with Kosuke after this job. But my thoughts at this time will remain forever, and I will grow as food and raise my name.

"I don't think I have a trap, but how's Koske?

"Hmm... seems a little uncomfortable?

"Well, check it out with care.

Holton, take a good look at Koske and help untap him. And Lyle. I saw the trap activated by the time I got here, but if I can't disarm it, it won't be for one person. "

While Lyle and Holton see him, Kosuke explores the trap. I didn't know what effect trap it was, but I knew if it would not activate if I did, so I succeeded in disarming it.

When I opened the door and Tony saw the trap, it seemed like smoke was about to erupt. They weren't just smoke, it was a trap where drugs that showed illusions could be blown.

When I was checking the powder, Holton sneezed and wrapped it around, and Holton and Lyle inhaled the powder and found out how it worked.

The Lyles seemed to have a good dream, with a relaxed grin.

While the two are dreaming, Kosuke and Tony look inside the room.

"Hey, time to get back to your sanity -?

I'm done looking into it. Tony slaps the two cheeks and makes them go back to sanity.

"Is that it? What about Elias?

"Where is Mr. Elias?

I guess you two were watching something with Elias.

"Elias is escorting outside. I wouldn't have been here from the beginning.

You guys were seeing illusions. "

When they heard it was an illusion, they were embarrassed and depressed.

"Well, I don't know what kind of fantasy you were seeing, but I totally forgot.

So I finished my room survey. "

Lyle reacts to this word and recovers.

"Something happened!?

"Gems, decorated armor, old coins,"

"That's amazing! Aren't we rich!

When I heard what I found, Holton got back on his feet.

"No, because what we find belongs to the country. There's nothing in our nostalgia.

Because this is the property of the country.

If no one's found the ruins, you can take whatever you want. "

"Yes... what is it?

The tension in Holton dropped visibly.

"Lyle said if I found the treasure, I could make it my own."

"No, I don't know what it is."

When I heard there was a hidden passage, Lyle didn't know where it was, so I was wondering if I could somehow get Holton to show me around and use that as an excuse to get Holton out.

"Is Lyle understudied? I remember talking about these things before."

"I seem to have forgotten.

Show me what you found. Wouldn't it be nice if we just looked at it?

"This way.

Don't touch me, okay? The way things are placed can also be an important resource for scholars. "

Lyle and Holton will look like they ate a shoulder watermark when they see the gems that are placed ahead of them.

There were fewer gems and stuff than I thought.

Converting what we have here to currency is more or less the amount that every average person can play and live in for about three years. Combined with the ornaments that were there by the time I got here, it adds about two years.

"You think that face is a little crazy, don't you?

"There was such a gatekeeper, but it's not like this!

"That's right! You're dying!

"I thought so, too, because that's the truth.

Maybe they almost took it out when they abandoned this city?

What's left here is probably the one left because it can't be transported heavily. "

"Isn't there another hidden room somewhere?

Tony shakes his head sideways to Holton's question.

"You were nowhere near as far as I could find out.

I'm looking into Koske, but you can't expect it. "

"Yeah. I didn't"

Stan Kosuke lands and agrees with Tony. I also checked the upper wall, but there were no hidden passages or rooms.

"Have you finished your research?"

"I also looked at the ceiling, but you didn't. I guess it's the only thing that's kept here."

Let's go home.

As for Lyle, I'm not satisfied yet, but if I say it any more selfishly, they say it will stun me, so I just have to obey.

Holton tries to regret jewels and such, but he honestly obeys them because he also wants to leave early.

For both of us, it was a ruin search that had little to gain. You don't realize that you have two very valuable things in your hands: life and experience.

On the other hand, Kosuke had a lot to gain. I was able to see how much I could do and what I had stacked up so far. Head to the ground feeling full.

However, Kosuke has not been able to grasp his weaknesses about this time. Perhaps one day the time will come for that to be deadly.

"Back -"

"Welcome back, Koske"

Konsat welcomes Kosuke. Tony and the others are doing it for an inside report and an apology to the delegates.

He's pissed off at his unsolicited behavior, but thanks to Lyle's rampage, he spared his rewards from being reduced because of new discoveries.

"How'd it go in there?

"Oh, I've never been in a ruin before, so I don't know the other difference."

The ruins you entered with Bordos are no-can.

"There were traps, demons, gatekeepers."

"Gatekeeper?"

"I think he's a gatekeeper because he was protecting what looked like a warehouse."

"... I wouldn't put a gatekeeper or anything if it was just a warehouse... then would that corroborate that material?

I'm thinking as if the consult recalls something.

"Was this any special place?

"Speaking of special, maybe special.

I have an old dossier that says that the temple here had a warehouse for this area of valuables.

But there's no warehouse like that, and they thought it was a mistake. "

"But the discovery of the gatekeeper gave me credibility."

Consut nodded.

"... what if the gatekeeper could also be a valuable resource?

"Could be."

"... sorry. I broke the gatekeeper."

"Broke it?

Lyle and the others were attacked to help.

"Well, I don't know what else to do with those circumstances.

What's the gatekeeper like now?

Communicate the condition as long as you can remember. I will also tell you that the magic could not be used at last.

"Couldn't you use magic? That's intriguing.

The stone statue has shattered arms and chest and two straight heads......

I wonder if we can still manage to investigate. "

What Consult imagines is a stone statue a little bigger than an adult man. I don't think you've defeated a four-meter giant.

When you head out to investigate the stone statue, knowing its size, you will be amazed at the bullshit of Kosuke.

The sermon to the Lyles is over, and the line goes back to Bellassen.

The consultants will report to their organization and will soon begin to prepare for a new departure.

As a consultant, I wanted to ask Yusuke to escort me again, but Yusuke refused because she couldn't get her hands off the play.

Instead, he gave them detailed information such as the location of demons and traps, and kept the follow up so that the investigation would be a little easier.

And by the time Konsat came back to Bellassen, Kosuke was on a journey.
