--That day was an idle night with numerous stars floating in heaven.

An idle King's Capital night where you can even hear the sound of bones rattling.

One cloud non-existent night heaven was clearly illuminating the shadow of one human being.

"--Kuhihi"

The identity of the shadow laughs.

In the idle city, his eyes narrowed with a ripped grin on his cheek and he laughed viciously.

Fluid that drips pompously from your hand, showing loose and sticky.

The eyes of a man who flushed and gazed at a sole filled with a unique smell of iron rust were filled with emotions of joy.

... an uninhabited, madly mixed city of nights.

The next day, in a sweep located in Wang Du, a certain "wizard" was found dead.

And on that day, in a five-day cycle, "The Wizard" was found dead in the Wang capital, and various rumors flew by.

Eventually, people will gradually start to admire the fact that it is the work of the "wizard hunting" ------.

"--Wizard hunting?

The time is lunchtime when the sun still pours from directly above this. At a dining room in Wang Du, I was asking back to Lilea, a female swordsman.

You don't know Minaura, but lately there have been such noisy rumors everywhere in Wangdu.

"Intentional murder targeting only the Wizard.

Lilea tells me more about it, even though it's disgusting.

"Two weeks early after Minaura.

Though I think it was about time most of them cooled down, they were still held at their roots from Lilea in front of them and Sophia, who repeatedly stabbed her lunch silently with a fork while sitting next to her and releasing it to her mouth.

In the end, for one case of "minaura", Sofia fired a goopunch along with the word "impossible".

Lilea told me why she didn't call me either, and I was feathering swordlike words just like me.

"It's up to you to be killed." Wizards only. And politely, once every five days, there's a case of a wizard being killed.

Cyclically, the day after tomorrow, Lilea threw up words in a mix.

"There's no sign that the Knights are moving even though they've killed five of them. I wonder what the Knights are doing."

"Speaking of which, I haven't seen Lowe and Joshua for the last two days or so, but what about those two?

"Those two would be doing a request for an escort. In this day and age, I'm the only one who's out of the way because the Wizard's in the way.

That's why I'm having this relaxing dinner with you guys, and I spill my dissatisfaction.

The unidentified "Wizard Hunter" is definitely trying to kill the "Wizard" for some purpose.

Now it is time for the act to be carried out according to the cycle of once every five days, but the status quo, we do not know when it will be broken.

Therefore, if the "Wizard", the material of concern in the first place, is a request for escort, we will try not to get involved. The idea seemed utterly legitimate because I listened to the earlier story.

"Suitable for melee fights like me and you," Wizard "would still be good, but there's a good chance that a non-combatant" Wizard "like Sophia could be targeted. So, for the time being, I'd like to act with these three, okay?

As long as the three of us solidify, it will be hard to get targeted by that unidentified person, Lilea says.

And finally understand.

I was wondering if it was okay for the three of us to have dinner and if Lilea invited me and Sophia to talk about it.

"If that's the case, I'll follow that suggestion."

Nothing. No reason to say no.

Besides, in my case, there's a burden on Sophia, who hasn't fixed her mood yet.

In any way, if it's for Sophia, there's no reason for me to say no.

"Then it's settled. Sophia's been talking to you for a while, so I've been waiting for your reply."

Was that when I was waving my sword with Shiva in Minaura? Again, while you're on your way to Minaura, right?

I wasn't sure where it was, but when I said something poorly, I just felt like a snake, so I would shut up and do the spot.

"Well, I'm sorry it took so long, but I was wondering if you could accompany me on this request."

That said, what Lilea took out of her nostalgia was a piece of paper. It was a request that was written down as a crusade.

"At the corner, it would be too stupid to act with you without taking advantage of that sword arm, wouldn't it?

Lilea and I are friends, but Sophia and I are not adventurers.

So let's just say it's awkward to do a request directed at an adventurer.

"I forgot to tell you, if I cared about the little things, I wouldn't be here."

"... I haven't said anything yet"

"You're a lot easier to understand than people because you have a disciplined personality in weird places."

It was supposed to be the most correct idea, but for some reason I was blinded by the phrase inside me.

"So, what, after doing this request —— so I guess I'll be a few hours later, do you have any plans or something?

"Why not?"

"There's someone I need you to meet."

However, the person laughed bitterly that it was only convenient at night.

And I understand that the request I'm going to make is also a waste of time until I see you.

"Sometimes Julius is -- are you interested in crusading monsters?

"... a monster?

The image that immediately occurred in the back of my brain when I was told that, was that substandard demon, Jabba Wok.

But I took it off the potential candidate that whatever boulder it was, it wouldn't be possible.

"Since the wizard hunt began, more wizards have been distancing themselves from party members, like me. Anyway, the rumor is that the Wizard Killer has already killed about two well-known samurai.

Consequently, the perception that we cannot be fat opponents of the same people has already spread.

Unless you're a good friend, she says no one welcomes wizards happily right now.

Because of this, there are many precious beings that are inherently wizards.

"So we all had the mood to make a big deal out of it, but there was one of them who raised his voice."

————— Alone comes with the risk of being targeted. Then you just have to get together with the wizards. And if we're gonna get together around the corner, why don't we take down the demon? That, too, is a big deal.

"--Name, Amseth. It's up to you to get on that invitation, but aren't you willing to listen to me for once?
