After completing their report to Gereon, the Knights Commander, the Sigels headed straight for the Alliance with their feet.
The Sigels, who usually digest the request perfectly, were just put through the back as soon as they gave Philomena's name.
Normally, I wouldn't go through saying I suddenly want you to meet the Alliance Master, but boulders would be like brave men.
Anyway, the Sigels, who were put through to a room where no ordinary adventurer would enter first, were soon to face the Alliance Master.
And just like his discussions with Gereon, he provided information about spirit-eating.
"- So you're saying that the cause of the northern anomaly is the effect of its spirit-eating?
Whoever saw it, the guild master, in stature who would have been a former adventurer and in charge of the avant-garde, turned his sharp gaze against Sigel.
"Yes. I have already passed this information on to the Kingdom as well. Discuss what to do in the future between your guild and your country"
"You mean you won't get involved any more?
Because the Alliance Master's gaze on Filomena, which I've heard, is geared toward Filomena, I can tell immediately without being put to words what I want to say.
Philomena, who understood that the story had moved from being about spirit-eating to being about her response, shook her neck left and right.
"It doesn't mean I'll never get involved, but if the country says something, I'll think about it at that point"
"Doesn't that mean a request from the guild?
"That's fine, then, but shouldn't we stop it if we think about the future?
The Alliance Master turned out to be a difficult face to Philomena, who went on to say that the Knights of the Nation would be the first to hit.
"If there's a way we can take it down, I think we should just get rid of it?
"That would be, but there would be something decent about the country, too, wouldn't there? Besides, I'm not going to be involved in a fight between the country and the guild."
"Mmmm......!?
Against Philomena, who had said it out loud, the Alliance Master had only a face.
If the Alliance hired Philomena to defeat the Spirit Eater while the Kingdom did nothing, the face would be rounded.
If there had been a request from the Alliance after the Kingdom had done absolutely nothing, Filomena would have taken on that request as well.
But at least the kingdom was doing some research, and was trying to deal with it by moving itself.
If that is the case, it is Philomena's idea that she does not need to bother to move so far.
I don't want to get on the cheap idea that Filomena should just move and solve a problem that can be dealt with by becoming a national guild.
Above all, even though the kingdom is trying to solve itself with its own power, it can be a nasty thing when Filomena interrupts it so as to interrupt it.
If you look at the Alliance Master's face, you can see that Philomena understands exactly what she's thinking.
"Earlier, I went to tell the First Knights, but it looks like they're going to move soon. Don't you dare think I don't even have to move right now?
"Mmmm..."
I can understand what Filomena is trying to say, but given her position as an Alliance Master, I don't want to leave it to the state.
Philomena went on to say even more, knowing full well that the Alliance Master would want to say so.
"I won't stop for the guild to move independently. But if you want me to move, I want a good reason."
More than the country was moving, the Alliance Master turned a sinister face to Philomena, who tells her outside to move with the country rather than on the Alliance's own request.
I can understand what Philomena has to say when I think about it normally, but as the head of the guild, it would be difficult to snort.
Philomena knows the idea, too, so she didn't dare go on and touch it there.
"Anyway, would you start by checking the facts in the guild, too?
"... sort of"
"If so, there's no need for us to get involved in the first place. We're not very capable of defeating the enemy right now."
That's what Filomena said, but in fact, we can fight as close to first-rate as we can to second-rate.
It's the magic of marinas and michaelas that tends to cover up and explore.
The Alliance Master nodded reluctantly at Filomena, who first showed an attitude of delivering results and then responding to the discussion.
We decided that pushing any further would not result in good results.
As a problem before that, even if I moved Filomena forcefully about this one, it would be a hassle later.
It was only a matter of satisfaction that we had to avoid it as a guild.

"- Are you glad I said no that way?
After discussions with the Alliance Master, Sigel asked Philomena that way on the way back to the Amateras.
"Right. I think it was a little forceful, but I gotta tell you, it's gonna be tough later."
"It is."
"The Alliance Master here is still here, isn't he? Some places say it's only natural to cooperate."
"Wow..."
Fortunately, Sigel, who had not yet met such a person, glanced at Philomena's words.
"It's just that what's worse is not those who push through those things, but the guilds that just cut those guys and try to improve their relationship."
Sigel sighed before saying to Filomena, who would have a sinister face against the so-called lizard-tailed guild.
"As an organization, it can be a normal response... but it's not the kind of thing that gets hit."
Anyway, if that only happened once, if it seemed to repeat itself over and over again, it would be about what you even showed your sincerity by disposing of it in the first place.
But there is also the aspect that if you are an organization like the one in the rest of the world like the Alliance, you can't help but get those troublesome people involved.
"That's the same for the country, not just the guild, but I'm glad the Knights Commander is decent here"
Other faces nodded agreeably to Laura, who added so with a smudged look.
"What are we going to do in the future, as long as the request from the guild has turned down for the time being?
When Sigel asked that, Philomena answered after taking a moment to think about it.
"Well. Apparently, this place is more decent in the country. Depends on the flow of the conversation...... I don't think you'd say no if they finally asked you to, would you?
As for Philomena, it doesn't mean you don't want to be in the battlefield for anything.
Especially if direct damage was done to the people in Shirai.
So far things have not been that pressing, so they just haven't done anything to get on with the guild or the thoughts of the country.
Even from the re-exploration of Hikari and Yami, we know that so far the Spirit Eater has not moved out of the mountains.
If spirit-eaters were to have traveled close to people, Sigel would have insisted on a crusade of their own.
It is for those reasons that other Members are acting with some optimism at the moment.
Again and again, Philomena's basic attitude that while the country can deal with it, the country should deal with it pervades other members, including Sigel.
