- Eric side -

"Well, what shall we do with this guy..."

I had attacked and fainted an assassin-like man from behind, keeping my arm extremely immobile where I fell to the ground.

"~ Eh!!

"Don't move, if you move a little, you'll break it."

I can't see my face because I'm in a cape, but I look like a man in my physique.

I don't care what you think, it's not Mr. Elena.

Do you know how to assassinate, magic, etc., was a primitive bow attack?

A bow small enough to go into your nostalgia to hit you besides your head and heart won't kill you.

This could mean that this man has the skills to target people's hearts and heads, even from a few hundred meters away.

But, well, if you don't let me shoot you, it doesn't matter.

Just tie your hands behind your back, tie your legs too.

Keep the apes out of your voice.

This was the one assassin who went out where I was protecting him, but what about elsewhere?

It was the only place I felt like a killer, so I think it might be okay.

I'll pull you to drag this assassin and take this guy to the rendezvous point.

Going there, everyone was already gathered.

"Good day, Eric. The one he was after at that moment?

"Oh, yeah. Did Tina have any problems?

"Yeah, I was fine. Looks like everyone else had no particular problem with it."

Yulina and Nina nod at Tina's words.

We were on a mission to protect His Majesty Leo and Cristo in the shadows when they arrived, based on the information we got from coming to this city.

The information seemed definitive and we were able to capture the assassin.

Now, all I have to do is interrogate this guy... who will, right?

Tina and Mr. Yulina won't be able to do it.

You won't have that experience, and I don't want you two to do that.

Nina is from the underground, so she may not have done it before, but she's likely to be able to.

But you're still a woman, so you wouldn't want to.

I mean, I'm the only choice.

Well, I've done it a few times in my previous life, and I don't mind.

"Do you want to go a little deeper for now"

It's still close to the city's boulevard, so if we start interrogation here, we'll hear voices all the way outside.

I don't really want to go, but I have to get near the underground.

The guy I'm catching got better, he started rambling with groans.

To shut him up, slap a knife in his throat.

To the extent that I can't break my bones, I can't breathe for a moment and suffer for a while.

"Damn......!

"Be quiet, you don't have to kill me."

"... Huh!

I whine and threaten in his ear so the other three don't hear me.

With a hand knife, like earlier in the throat, letting go of the killing.

Threats at times like this are important to tell them you're serious.

- You targeted the life of my best friend, you're ready to die, aren't you?

This feeling of mine is not a threat or anything.

I recently found out the path that leads to the underground, so I go in and make sure no one else sees me there.

Is it correct that I was taught more than I knew?

He's still shallow when it comes to the underground, not the deepest part.

Where Nina and Elena were born and raised, it seemed close to the deepest.

It is shallow here, and the sun is as sharp as it gets.

They say the place we're headed is like a hole in the basement, with one human sleeping on it.

In a bungalow kind of place, I knock a ton of doors about to come off before I go inside.

Even though I live alone with a woman, I don't tighten the door at all.

The woman said that no matter how tight the door is, it comes in broken, and even if it comes in, it can be repelled intact.

I've been here a few times. You remember the sound of knocking on the door, the woman already greeted us with a smile.

"There you are, Eric. Shall we fight again today?

"Get out of my way, Helu. Later."

It is Heliu, a female fighter, who met at a party we went to before.

After that event, I was still supposed to fight without running away from Helius.

I tried to say no because there was no place to fight, but I was forced to bring him here.

I fight with a wooden sword because I just can't fight seriously, and the result is my win.

I asked him to let me use this place because it was about listening to anything he said when he won.

This is the territory that Hellu won by kicking the others out, so people won't come unless someone comes along to try new.

And Hellu is strong, so new challengers don't often show up either.

He hasn't had any challengers lately, so Hellu seems to have taken the time to attend that event.

Instead of using this place, we're supposed to fight every time.

"Helu, why don't you fight me this time? I haven't had much combat training since I got here. I'm blunt."

"Fine, Julina. Yulina's strong, too."

Looks like Mr. Yulina will be fighting on my behalf this time.

Thank you, I have something to do.

"Tina will also be judged in the battle between the two of us. If those two get serious about the fight, the damage around them is amazing."

"Yeah, okay"

They leave the bungalow to fight, and Tina follows it.

"Eric, I'm going out. Because I'm used to this."

"... ok, thank you"

Nina remembered when she was little. Even though she gave me a slightly darker atmosphere, she said so with her prepared eyes.

As I thank you, I lift the root of the man I had in my right hand and throw it at the wall.

Looks like he hit him hard in the back and his breath leaked out of his mouth playing monkey.

"Well, I'm going to start interrogating you... but if you answer me sooner what I hear, I don't have to hurt much. Think about it and talk."

The man who aimed at my best friend looked up with frightened eyes, but I looked down without any particular emotion.
