The next afternoon, I was headed to the coffee shop designated as Mr. Sieg as a place to discuss the Phoenix crusade.

... But even before the important discussion, I was walking in more and more air.

Yesterday, I was pretty tired of having adventurers serve in the city. [M]

First, the paperwork that the adventurers needed to bring materials to the city was that more than half of the adventurers couldn't write, so I started writing the paperwork for more than twenty adventurers until this morning.

That was the only heavy labor, but that wasn't the only problem.

The adventurers and the people of the city got along too badly.

The adventurers underestimate the people of the city, and the people of the city hate those adventurers.

In such a situation, there was no problem and there was no way things would go.

Yesterday alone, I halved four adventurers trying to get my hands on a young woman in the city, and I was about to be treated.

... How many times have you tried to withdraw your foreword and leave no service to the city?

Still, in the end, the adventurer's service was to continue because there was so little material flowing into the city that we had to rely on such adventurers.

According to what Mary told me, the price of more and more guild materials continues to rise.

Even though she had been in a labyrinth city for many years because of it, some of them were leaving, and if the adventurers wouldn't let the material flow, Mary said she was also thinking of leaving the labyrinth city.

At the earliest, I had no idea what the Alliance wanted to do.

I'm just pretty sure the Marys will have a pretty hard time with this.

In addition, even though guilds alone are troublesome, there is also the problem of adventurers.

This time, the adventurers were quite quiet when I showed my ability to hurt the adventurer who caused the problem.

But that's why I can't say that adventurers have zero chance of causing problems.

"Ha..."

I accidentally leaked my sighs at a problem I couldn't see how to solve.

Really, I have no idea what to do now.

That's not why it's a question of letting go, and I wrinkle between my eyebrows even more unexpectedly.

"... brother, are you okay?

I returned from my thoughts to the voice of Narsena. [M]

Turning to the side, Narsena looked at me with a worrying look on her face.

With that look on his face, Narsena opens her mouth.

"If you don't seem well, even if your brother is resting..."

I can't help but laugh at Narsena's words and wonder if she looks quite tired.

In fact, I feel quite tired because of yesterday's noise on the paperwork, and the worries that I can't find a solution to.

I didn't have time to see how I was this morning, so I just didn't realize that I was in such a terrible condition.

"No, we're just discussing it today. I'm going. Thanks for your concern."

"... you can't do that."

"Yeah, I know"

Still, I didn't intend to miss this discussion.

Sure, I'm tired, but that's mostly mental, and I wouldn't have to worry too much.

Besides, absent discussion in the Phoenix crusade was something I wanted to avoid as much as I could.

Narsena is far more capable than I am, and she is no exception in brains.

However, there are still inexperienced and inexperienced places with little knowledge of warcraft and emotions.

Regardless of the other quests, if you're dealing with a super difficult Warcraft such as Phoenix, you should be accompanied by me, just in case you have experience.

"I see you!

It was just when I summed up my thoughts that I saw the coffee shop waiting for me.

With that coffee shop in my eyes, I get my mind together again. [M]

Anyway, now let's cut the adventurer thing off and focus on Phoenix, as well as the guild.

So I renewed my resolve, and I made my way to the coffee shop a little faster.

◇ ◆ ◇

By the time we got to the coffee shop, Mr. Sieg's party was all set.

Apparently, two women and Mr. Sieg are Mr. Sieg's party members.

"Well, thank you for the other day"

"Never mind. Now just focus on Phoenix."

"Yes!

Some of them look like Armia, and I smile unexpectedly at her bowing her head to Narsena.

"That, Mr. Laust"

"...... yeah?

... but after a serious conversation with Narsena, Armia turned to me, and for a moment, I didn't know what I was going to do, and I was flabbergasted.

"Well, I'm sorry to hear that so far!

"Huh?"

Without realizing how I was, Armia bowed her head in momentum as she stuck something out to me.

I noticed what Armia had put in front of me, and it was a leather bag with money, but I stayed overnight.

"Ah, oh. I'll accept your apologies and gratuities."

It was then that I understood that Armia was apologizing to herself and reached out in panic.

"This is all I have with me right now, but I'll pay you right. I'm so sorry I treated you unfairly with my lightning sword"

At the time I received the leather bag, Armia raised her head once, but lowered her head again with the words of her apology.

"Uh, okay......?

I couldn't hide my confusion as it changed, watching Armia like that.

In terms of transformation, labyrinth city adventurers are obviously worse off, but apparently Armia has changed dramatically from her personality.

At the time of our last encounter, I hadn't noticed because it was a blur, but Armia's personality seems to be quite different from before.

"Well, shall we discuss Phoenix?"

I couldn't hide my agitation for a little while on that unexpected change, but to Mr. Sieg's words I was to return to me.

We are only here to discuss the Phoenix crusade, not to show off Armia's change.

I tell myself that, I put my surprise in the back of my chest, and I sit in a chair.

"So, shall we begin?"

Confirming that I sat in the chair, Mr. Sieg nodded.

As such, we started discussing Mr. Sieg as a facilitator.

Discussions for the Phoenix Crusade, though good, were essentially about how to attack Phoenix's ability to be called the Flaming Armor.

Flaming armor, that's about the flames that Phoenix wraps around.

That flame that covers your body to protect Phoenix is just armor.

And it was said that that fiery armor was the most troublesome ability in Phoenix.

Unlike other warcraft, Phoenix is inferior in physical ability and endurance.

Even wizards with skills unleash unparalleled magic, but only ranged attacks, making them move poorly all at once when they are in time.

... Yet Phoenix was called by an alias for avant-garde killing.

The reason for this is the flaming armor.

The armor that protects Phoenix's body emits so much ultra-high temperatures that humans are said to be non-reproducible.

Almost all weapons are useless with one or two blows.

With half-breed weapons, you won't even be able to attack them in the first place.

... In front of that fiery armor, you can assume that me and Narsena are of little use.

Even if Narsena is equipped with a demonic prop cage that has a heat-resistant effect and I decide to fight with the Great Sword, I can attack once or twice.

If Mr. Sieg has the Devil's Sword, he can break through the flaming armor, but there's no way Mr. Sieg can defeat the Super Difficult Warcraft on his own.

In other words, it will be the wizard, Armia, who will dominate the Phoenix crusade.

But it was never easy for a wizard to do damage to Phoenix either.

Because Phoenix has a keen sense of magic.

Just as the wizard enters the chant, Phoenix turns the target into a wizard and releases a fireball.

If they unleash ranged attacks, the avant-garde cannot be stopped in the same way as a super difficulty warcraft like Hydra.

Those properties had transformed Phoenix into a terribly troublesome being while having a body that was inherently inferior to other super difficult warcraft.

So me and Narsena were going to forcefully decide to compete by bringing in a large quantity of weapons and fighting them in disposables.

Honestly, we were to welcome Mr. Sieg's party and fight with the Wizards, but the numbers remain small.

If you consider that there are a dozen people in a normal Phoenix crusade, you might want to not rely poorly on Armia and push hard.

I hold that thought in the rubbing of information for the Phoenix crusade.

"If it's Armia's magic, Unchanted Phoenix won't notice me and I can strip my armor off..."

"Huh!"

─ ─ But in Mr. Sieg's words, my thoughts changed dramatically.

As long as we do something about the flaming armor, Phoenix will be greatly weakened.

"There is a lot of time and concentration to unleash so much magic without chanting that you can strip Phoenix of his armor, no matter how much water magic enhancement skills Armia has.... can't be used by Phoenix opponents who throw fireballs indiscriminately"

"I think it's all right"

"... Huh?

Having thought about it, I blocked the words that Mr. Sieg, the troubled expression, was saying and raised my voice.

"I can attract Phoenix for some time."

"... what?

I lose my word for a moment, as Mr. Sieg cannot believe in my words.

But I look at Narsena and Armia, who nodded to affirm my words, and I understand that my words are true, and I open my mouth.

"That's right, should I say the person who defeated that Hydra......"

But at the next moment, Mr. Sieg opened his mouth by turning his flashing expression into a fierce grin.

"I can certainly do Phoenix with this"

The words had an excitement and an irresistible joy.
