In the lowermost office of the Giant Tower, I was reading a report.

The content of the report was a report on the anti-Diablo operation.

"It looks like things are going pretty well,

Yes, thanks to the hard work of Mela and the Mohawks on the ground.

May, who brought the report, smiles and agrees with my statement.

--When I went to check on Lilith, who had obtained the throne of the Racial Kingdom, I received a one-sided notice from the Majin Kingdom. It's really a terrible thing, and although it avoids direct expression, it declares that it will enter the territory of the racial kingdom and plunder the wheat, hunt racial slaves, burn down villages, rob by example, and massacre.

The queen of the Racial Kingdom, Lilith, who doesn't have the strength to fight off the Majin Kingdom's soldiers, asked us to defend her kingdom.

I came up with a plan to use that request to put pressure on Diablo to harass and destroy him.

The content of the plan was: 'Treat Diablo's associates well and send them back to the Majestic Kingdom. The others who have committed the crime of attacking the village instead will be executed on the spot as an example.

Thanks to the efforts of Mela and the Mohawks, Diablo is being suspected by First Prince Volos, who is in charge on behalf of the bedridden king, as per my plan, and is being verbally abused by him.

Things are going so completely according to our plan that I burst out laughing in the middle of reading the report.

The only complaint I have is that I can't see Diablo being chastised and making unseemly excuses from above with my own eyes.

It would have been nice to see him in action on the SSR clairvoyant card, but I don't have that much time on my hands, and due to the distance, I won't be able to see him from the lowest level of the Abyss (here): ......

I have zero complaints, but I'm generally satisfied with the results.

After enjoying the whole experience, I put down my papers and move on to the next topic.

"Sorry Aoyuki, I didn't mean to keep you waiting,

If the Lord says to wait, his men will wait forever. If the Lord asks you to wait, your men will wait forever. No problem.

"I'm glad of everyone's loyalty, including Aoyuki.

I almost let out a wry smile at too much loyalty. You don't have to be that extreme.

However, I can't afford to interfere and give a safe answer.

It's a good thing that you're able to have a good time with your friends and family.

You're not going to be able to find out if you're going to be able to get a good deal more than you're used to, but you're not going to be able to get a good deal more than you're used to. Still, the uncontrollable deadly air leaked out, and I felt the air was so sharp that it felt as if it would snap if it were physically touched heavily.

If a level 9999 Aoyuki was leaking killing qi, this couldn't be helped.

(But it's rare to see Aoyuki this angry. What in the world was going on here?

I ask her, twisting my head inwardly.

I hear you have a report to tell me: ......

This.

When Aoyuki voiced her agreement, she immediately uttered a report.

The content of the report - I received an urgent call via Aoyuki's tame monster.

Apparently, some people are investigating the "Black Clown" party, especially the "Dark".

This is a report from one of my men who has infiltrated the Adventurer's Guild.

If you are simply gathering information to request a quest to the Black Clown party, you don't have to report it, but ...... it seems that the people who are probing you are not legitimate people.

It is not only a legitimate procedure to seek information from the Adventurer's Guild, but also to gather information in illegal ways.

From their modus operandi, I was able to infer that they were gathering information for the purpose of assassinating me, Dirk.

I'm not going to be able to say that I'm not going to be able to get rid of them.

The purpose of the information gathering was immediately apparent, as it was very similar in many respects to their tactics.

(The fact that the Humans, whom we despise as inferior species in the ground world, were conspicuous as adventurers led to a number of people who tried to carry out our assassinations, either out of jealousy or to make an example of us so that other races would not get carried away. ....... (Of course, we were taking precautions, so we didn't have to deal with them at all.

All the people who tried to carry out assassinations in the past are already gone. It's all been taken care of.

The most common reason for assassinations and attacks, however, is not so that the humans won't get carried away.

It's not that you can't have a good time, but you can have a good time with your friends.

Can we call this a 'entanglement of passions' too?

"The scoundrels who bind the man of my dreams!

"Princess Nemm! Your Prince has come to help!

We'll get you out of the prison you're surrounded by!

More than once, adventurers, fat merchants, craftsmen's apprentices, and other men fascinated by Nemm's good looks had come screaming and late with weapons in their hands.

In a manner of speaking, this is also an assassination. I'm not sure if it's just a matter of time before I'll be able to get my hands on it.

I'm not sure how many times I've been in the same situation.

It's possible that this may have had a negative impact on Nemm's stubbornness and attitude towards the people on the ground.

But if you listen to Aoyuki, the assassination is not a 'entanglement of passions' type of story.

I've heard that a very famous assassination group is trying to kill me, which is different from the usual.

I've heard that a very famous assassination group is trying to kill me behind the scenes, and I've heard that one of the best assassin's societies in the world, the 'Breaux' or ....... I may or may not have heard that kind of urban legend over drinks during the Gathering of the Tribes era: ......

I try to remember the past, holding my temples with one hand.

But I could be wrong, because there are so many different urban legends about that kind of thing.

May asks back.

"Do you think that this 'assassin's society executioner' skillful is an attempt on Mr. Light's life?

This. There is a group of men called 'Morte Spada' who do not care about their own position and seek the Lord's life.

Aoyuki's killing spirit increases.

Apparently, she has been furious all the time after hearing this information, 'they are trying to kill me'.

I was so happy to see Aoyuki's angry feelings that I almost smiled.

She doesn't care and advises, letting out a killing spirit.

"-Lord, please give this greenhorn the order to kill all the unworthy fools who don't know their place in the world right now. I will seize every single one of the foolish ones who are trying to kill you like the hounds of hell, and I will bring them before the Lord and show you how to feed the dogs while they are still alive.

I'd like to have an order from you, Master Light. Together with Aoyuki, I will take such tactless people, such a group of people, and I will make them regret the pain, despair, and death in front of their eyes, to make them regret trying to kill anyone.

Aoyuki, hiding her gaze with a hoodie, tells us with anger and murderous fury.

May sympathizes with her line and runs for office herself.

I let out a wry smile and wave my hand to calm them down.

I know that if you two are serious about this, I know that people who are only capable of assassination are not your enemies, and I am very happy that you are angry for me. But for now, we have to catch them as usual and get them to tell us who requested them first. To be honest, I don't even need to find out who the client is at this point in time. ......

I looked into the distance and caught sight of Diablo, who was supposed to be invisible.
