Summoning at Random

Episode 27: Take

"You see the city."

Seeing the city's appearance as Oraine holding the reins looked forward, he informed Ling Ji and Tena.

Having been on the wagon vigilantly since the Sharp Eagle raid, he has repelled after several subsequent raids from demons.

Ling Ji and Tena, who were groaning from the fatigue of the raid, looked forward with their faces up to the voice.

At the end of the three sights was the appearance of the city surrounded by walls.

As for the size of the city, it would be about the same as the Unlinia or a little larger.

"Is that the closest city in the demonic realm to human territory?

... It's kind of a sturdy wall. "

Although the size of the city is not so much the same as that of Unlinia, the walls surrounding the two cities, as Ling Ji put it, were different in nature.

The walls surrounding the city of Unlinia are intended to prevent demons roaming outside the city. Consequently, all that is required is the thickness of the wall such that it can withstand the progression of demons.

In contrast, the walls surrounding the city of the demonic realm in front of us are different. It was built with greater awareness of aggression, not just to prevent demons, even from holes that seemed to strike out arrows and magic set in place everywhere.

Obviously, it could be seen that it envisages an opposing army.

"Now is the time for the Demonic Realm to make deals with the Holy Henri Nation, so this city has become a thriving place for deals. But when the original people and the demons were at war, this was the closest city to the enemy on the Demons' side, so it also played a role in the fort when it came to saying"

"I see, that's right.

By the way, what do you call that city's name?

"Uh, sure..."

It's Kainas, Mr. Rage.

Tena supplements Oraine, who was lost without thinking of a painful answer to Ling Ji's question, from the other side.

"Is Tena familiar with that city?

"No, it's the first time I've come.

When I was representing Henri, I only heard her name. "

"Well, I mean, we're making a deal, but is it okay for humans to come in?

Even listening to me talk about making a deal, I was Ling Ji who became anxious to see the offensive walls in front of me.

Not to mention, hearing stories that it was an enemy country until a few years ago makes the city seem like a danger zone as far as it goes.

"Uh, the merchant should be visiting normally, and I think he'll be fine..."

Tena also sends a gaze to Aurain asking for a help ship if she's not that familiar just because she's heard the name of the city.

"I also know only to the extent of rumors about things in the city, but even if you think about interacting at the border, with the coins Mr. Tena has or Mr. Eligor's references, you won't be treated so unhindered"

"Right."

It is certainly hard to imagine that Orlaine would be treated so badly in the country, given the events at the border that, as soon as he showed them, were treated as if VIP treatment were also poor.

Ling Ji, who remembered it, was convinced to speak up to Aurain, who had the reins to head to the city.

"Then..."

Let's go into the city, as if to block Ling Ji's words I tried to tell him, a grand fireworks rose out of his hands that remained in full swing.

"Huh?"

Where I was alarmed because nothing would pop up for a while, this event. Unexpectedly, Ling Ji relieved and looked up over the fireworks raised.

It was with both hands stretched up, and the fire that popped up did not damage the surrounding area only by standing up towards the sky.

Ling Ji himself, of course, has not caused one burn to Tena or Oraine, nor has he extended the burn to the carriage. It can be said that there was no damage in that regard.

However, this is Kainas, the city at the forefront of the demonic realm.

The security of this city is a very good selection of elites, and even though it has been peaceful since we started trading with the people's territory, there is no one left behind to fail to be vigilant on a daily basis.

If this happens in a place like that, the results are obvious without even thinking about it.

"Who are you people!

The guards, who witnessed the mysterious magic launched over the city just outside, gather their weapons in front of the gate. From time to time, I also saw glittering things from holes emptied in the walls, and I could see that Ling Ji and the others were always aiming with bows and arrows and magic from inside.

Around where we are deliberately seeing light, I guess there is also a warning connotation.

"Oh, no, what's that..."

"Ma, wait!

"We are not suspicious!

It should be noted that the people who visit this city of Kainas are merchants almost without exception, but Ling Ji, Tena and Oraine do not look that way from the outside.

On top of that, a mysterious magical attack released earlier over the sky.

I just said I'm not much of a suspicious person, and I lack persuasion.

To an unexpected development, a cold sweat conveys the spine of the three.

Earlier, Oraine said what the coins and references were, but in this situation, he could only inspire the guards by showing a bare gesture to take that stuff out.

"Put your hands up!... some of them have already mentioned why."

Tena and Oraine raised their hands up honestly, albeit pale, as such orders flew from the guards. Ling Ji has been around since the beginning, so he stays put.

"Keep it grown up!

With that said, the guards took out each rope and tied up the three of them.

◆ ◆ ◆

"Ugh, Mr. Rage ~"

"More than anything else, at that time..."

"Sorry......"

The three men, with their wrists and torso tied with their hands behind their backs, were taken to a cabin that was set up as a holding post for guards set up at the city entrance.

It should be noted that the raven insignificantly dived under Tena's clothes and hid.

Even though I knew Ling Ji wasn't bad, I had an unexpected grudge. Ling Ji leaned down unexpectedly to Tena and Oraine, who raised their voices.

Ling Ji concluded that there was no arbitrary manipulation of the evil gods when he defeated Black Dragon on the ten tiers of the dungeon, but he wants to doubt that a little at too bad a time. Actually, it's just bad luck.

"What the hell is going to happen to us?

"I think if you look at the coins and references, you can release me, but I can't take them out if they're tied up, and even if I ask you to take them out, you're going to be suspicious.

Nothing. I didn't launch an attack on the city, so I don't think they'll kill me all of a sudden... "

I may be able to persuade you if you're a rational opponent, but I don't know what they'll see.

At least there is a chance that if anyone knew him, he could take it from me, but none of the three of them knew him in this city, so I can't hope for him.

"Don't dare, let's try to persuade them in good faith first.

If you really don't seem to listen, the worst you can do is go out to coercion. "

Though they have been deprived of weapons and detained with rope, that has not completely rendered them helpless.

It's easy enough to take the rope off and get out of here if you have to.

However, I wanted to make it a real last resort because I could predict that I would be chased around in demonic territory in the future if I made things rough. At the end of the day, there is a lot of trouble if you can't take back the weapons that have been taken away.

The three were taken inside the holding office, where they were pulled out to the front of a magnificent man who appeared to be the captain of the guard.

"We have taken those who appear to be the culprits of the earlier noise!

"Good luck, you can back off"

When the soldiers who brought the three men so reported to the captain, they left Ling Ji and the others on the spot.

When the captain rose from the chair where he was sitting, he looked down at Reiji and the others and began interrogating them with a quiet but intimidating voice.

"Let me start by asking you what your qualities are.

I'll tell you what, if you say it falsely, you need to take action.

Honestly, it's for your own good. "

"─ You don't have to."

To block the voice of the captain who tried to start the interrogation, a voice was hung from behind Ling Ji and the others, at the entrance to the holding office.

"Who!? ─ Huh!?

This is it! And I beg your pardon!

Who and what captain would do in the direction the voice flew, but the moment I saw the Lord of that voice, I was stunned, upright immobilized and saluted.

"You don't have to be afraid.

I'm just here to pick them up.

They are His Majesty's guests, so break the commandments. "

"Heh, Your Majesty's!?

I'll get right to it!

The bubble-eating captain hastily untied the ropes that bind Ling Ji and the others.

A calm, short-haired, silver-haired young man stood in front of the three men who were finally able to turn towards the entrance. That figure, wrapped around the splendid armor of what is a relatively light outfit, deserves the word knight from anywhere.

"Mr. Renalve!?

"Yeah, it's been a while. Miss O'Rain."

It was once the corner of the demonic Four Heavenly Kings, challenging the dungeon "Sanctuary of the Evil God" with Aurain and Eligor...... the appearance of the 'Wind' fierce wind ride Renalve.
