The Labyrinth Raids of the Ultimate Tank

Now I'll let you talk all you want.

I hear there's been a lot of discontent. This is just what I hear, because it's always happened with Nin.

Lillifer then politely and politely told me that it was a labyrinth.

"Why did the Master want Timeo to be his leader? Is there anything besides strength?"

I was evaluating Timeo's character.

I had some problems with the way I put it, but it's hard for people to point me out as soon as there's a problem.

I wanted to surround myself, if I could, with people like that.

... people who will stop me when I make a mistake.

Something like that, and I was expecting Timeo to take the lead.

A little, maybe I pushed it too far.

I wish I had done it carefully, but you were in a hurry with me.

Telling Lillifer about it made me look like I was just thinking a little bit.

"You had that intention."

"... well. And the other is simply because you have the strength. Looks like he's got a lot of vision."

"Wide vision...?"

"Usually when you use magic, you narrow your vision, you know?"

"Oh, I've heard of it! To use magic, you have to interfere in this world, because it's too focused on you... or something?"

"Well, it's more or less like that. Just sometimes. There are those who can act without any problems even if they're using magic."

"... Oh, speaking of which. Timeo always notices my mistakes, even when he's ready for magic! If my butt is itchy, it's boring...! Ah... please don't ask!"

She waves both her hands.

... well, anyway.

Many wizards narrow their sights when they are preparing for magic.

I, too, find it hard to see my surroundings when I use magic.

The more powerful it becomes, the narrower the horizon.

But Timeo can act as usual.

Leader, rather than as a command tower, I thought I could operate.

There was a part of it that confused me a little bit.

... Failure.

"Timeo has skills close to 'Overlook'. Because of that, I think I can look around..."

It was a dangerous place. I know by Luna's skill, but I didn't tell Lillifer.

Sneak a cold sweat.

How, I don't know if Timeo is close to that skill.

Was it close from birth, or from everyday life?

"... thanks for letting me tell you a valuable story. I'll think about the party again."

"Oh, well... that doesn't mean you can't do that, does it? Powerfully, you can count on it. Now we're just finding Timeo's weakness."

Guuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

"Is Timeo home already?"

"I'm home.... I was just with a guy I don't always see."

"... a man?"

"Yes. I was just wondering, because I kind of seemed to know Mr. Timeo."

Do you know Timeo?

Who the hell is it?

"Okay. Hey, don't come."

... Now, how do you talk to Timeo?

With that in mind, I moved to the front of his room.

… how shall we deal with it?

They took an interest in my clan and I wanted to be nice and fun.

... At the same time, I didn't want to be hated.

Be careful, whatever it is, if you can do something they don't like, they didn't want to tell you.

This is probably the first emotion I've ever had.

Because it was a clan I made myself, is it?

I didn't even do anything strong against Timeo because I thought so.

I couldn't, it wouldn't be a mistake to say.

Just as a leader. Then, no.

I need to tell them I'm wrong.

We need to be careful... even if the result is something that the adventurers who belong to don't like.

Of course, we must not be like dictatorships.

We need to judge everything and come up with answers.

Here, Timeo and I need to have a good talk.

When I knocked lightly, the door opened just a little.

"Timeo, I need to talk to you for a second. Are you okay?"

"... yeah, and that"

Timeo with a slightly troubled look.

Behind it, there was an old man.

"... This is Mr. Rude, the clan leader, isn't it? I'm sorry I'm late at night, I was a butler at Master Timeo's house."

"At Timeo's house, is it?"

"Yes. The -"

"... Envi, I'm sorry, but I have nothing to do with the house anymore. So why don't you go home?"

"... oh boy"

……

The man, called Envi, was slightly discouraged by the wrinkled face, and then went out with a bump.

He rocks his mixed hair with gray hair, but the flesh still seemed to be working out, tight.

Deacon, and Timeo's house, huh?

He's the one who knows Timeo.

Keep him like this, it's a shame to let him go home.

"Mr. Rude, what can I do for you?"

"No... who was that earlier?"

"... I was originally a nobleman. I'm the butler who served that house. Seems like I was going to quit my job at my age, and so, well, the"

Timeo looked a little cloudy and distracted himself.

Someone who knows more about Timeo.

"Timeo. Also, I'll talk more about it later"

"... Really? Okay."

Timeo grabbed the newspaper he had in his hand and then closed the door.

Heading to the entrance, there was Drinkin and Lillifer, plus Mr. Envi.

I know you're old enough, but your spine is stretching out.

Envi smiled softly, looking back at her.

"Oh, Master Rude. Again... My name is Envi. I'm really sorry I'm late at night."

"... oh, no. Because I don't care."

Encourage Mr. Envi, with his hips bent, to give him a head up.

He has a nostalgic grin and gives his head up to thank him several times.

... I'm not used to it.

Work pattern, it must be stained.

"Master... Envi is the butler of Timeo's house, right?"

"Ex, but"

Mr. Envi said so in a teasing manner.

... If you were serving Timeo's house, you would know a lot about him and the house.

"... Well, I'd like to ask you a few questions."

"... I understand. Why don't we go outside?"

Whispering, Mr. Envi also seemed to have guessed and indicated outside.

I snorted, and I went out with Mr. Envi, but Lillifers followed me.

"We also want to know about Timeo"

"... oh"

Lillifer and Drinkin nodded a lot and made me say it.

Go outside the cranhouse and walk away for a while.

On the way, I went near the demon stone lamp and stopped there.

Looking at the demon stone lights, Mr. Envi kept his head down.

"Timeo, I'm sorry for the inconvenience."

"… inconvenience, is it?"

Which is it?

When they see Lillifer and Drinkin, they laugh bitterly.

"Well, I told him we'd fight a lot."

"... that's the way it is"

I see.

"Um, about Timeo... can you let me ask you a lot? How did you become an adventurer when you were born a nobleman... or something"

Usually I become a knight.

Everyone chooses a knight who is a more stable profession than an adventurer.

In particular, people born in aristocratic houses have a strong tendency to do so.

"Right...... Clan leaders should know, right?"

"... please"

Mr. Envi tied his mouth tight and then cut it out.

"The house I served was active and aristocratic in the war back in the day. Even now, that tendency is strong... and it affects whoever takes over the house."

"... Isn't your eldest son taking over?"

The basic aristocratic house is.

"No. The first child born...... well, at the age of the so-called eldest son when he turns 20, he judges everything. We employ polygamy, and children of near-age contend with each other, and the best of them are supposed to take over the house"

"… contending, is it"

"Yes. In my brothers, to continue to show strength. That was the routine in that house."

Mr. Envi has a rugged look somewhere, like that.
