The Road to One Day Be the Strongest
Lesson 243
Climb the tips, tricks, and stone stairs one step at a time, again.
From the top of the stairs the lights leak and I hear the breath I desperately lurked.
The structure on the fifth floor is simple and lucid, a large room with several pillars.
From what I've seen so far, the bandits' strength is B-rank where they say in Adventurers, even if it's a big estimate. I just said "first-rate" to the public. If that's twenty, then the leader who sums it up is A-rank, which I also think is somewhat of a mind-breaker given the trap in this building.
Well, in view of the bandit's pride, there's only one thing a smart guy would do halfway through that.
"Die hey......... ah?
Freeze the legs of the man who has been ambushing you, piercing your skull with a shadow needle at the same time that you have stopped moving, letting it despair.
I could have snapped my neck and ended up with that, but if I just looked at that, I'd go too.
"Hih!?
Turning her gaze in the direction of that voice, a blonde blue-eyed girl in a slightly dressed dirty dress in drool or sand is in custody, surrounded by the appearance of two men.
From what I've seen, I think Gotsui is a better leader, and he's a better staff officer when he's hysterical.
I laughed back at the trembling girl as I thought about it. [M]
"Nice to meet you. I'm here to help, princess."
If I had a noble connection, I wouldn't be worried.
Let's say goodbye here for once.
First of all, I have a feeling these troublesome people are going to get me into this. Well, a lot of things will be feeling thin about this.
And in that case, if I'm honest with you, I'm good enough alone.
But then rooting for the end and surroundings, and a calm solution, requires the power of the powerful first.
In contrast, 'what? I wish I could solve it by force,' some of you may think, but that's a little sweet of an idea.
If you try to plunge into the kingdom of Hermes, I don't know about Elsa, but I'm sure Grace will turn to the enemy.
If you try to storm the Grands Empire, that Beast King Rex turns to the enemy.
If you try to plunge into the Dwarf country or the Elf country, that's what Elsa and Mr. Donald, the Dwarf village chief, turn to the enemy.
If you try to plunge into Hellsheim, the demon king Luna Lord will undoubtedly turn to the enemy first.
I mean, if you do evil, your mother (Risha) turns to the enemy.
─ ─ Well, when I say complete, I pack it.
For that reason, we must move to avoid hostility to the face of the gear when they are ex-EX-rank adventurers.
And the most effective means of advancing them is the connexion of the nobles and royalties.
First of all, not to mention the Kingdom of Hermes and Grace. The corrupt nobles have perished themselves, and are engaged to the royalty of that country. I owe you big money for saving Wang Du. I have no problem with Grace saying 'I can tell Elsa'.
Next up is the Grands Empire. This is the current situation, but the Beast King and I are friends. Even if I don't lend it, I would ask for sincerity and to some extent accommodation. Or you can say 'I can tell Grace'.
Next, the Elf Country, the Dwarf Country, and the Demon Country of Hellsheim, it's already too late. It's probably too late to keep your hands around now.
Not so good. As for Elsa and her mother...... well, that's it. Do as much good as you can to avoid getting in a bad mood.
Well, I've talked to you for a long time, but when it comes to what you want to say, you just have to say one word.
"It's all right now, don't worry"
─ ─ We should get along with this young lady, duh!
With that in mind, although the girl managed to regain her composure, the liking from the bandits does not seem fragrant as to whether it is inversely proportional to it.
"I see, Temehe, from the looks of it, the executioner of rumors, is that a bastard? I see. You do have a strong vibe."
"I guess I just said I visited here with a request to recapture a nobleman, either an Adventurer's Guild or a Clan. Was it your fault you didn't come back?"
─ ─ To be honest, I was a little surprised.
No, I haven't hit anything that Staff Modki is saying, but more of a Gottsy leader than that.
I didn't think you'd see my difference just at first glance. [M] Anyway, I totally cover up my constant magic, my presence, and my intimidation. You should only look like a weak person like the average person if you're not quite skilled. You're not in the same shape as the fool who just looks on the side first.
Even so, why 'd you find out? I'm full power now, but that means that's all I can completely cover up my magic. There's no way this level of banditry can spot me first.
With that in mind, the leader rose up and started talking as if he had read it.
"I was born with a peculiarity. It's been a long time since Don was hidden from me. I can see the difference in power between him and me. I don't mean the devil's eye."
The first thing that comes to mind when I hear that is my idiosyncrasies.
The idiosyncrasies of being able to identify something called magic with 'color'. Even at the time of the earlier appraisal, there was no such skill as "Demon Eye", so I can assume that it is probably similar.
─ ─ but
"...... why bother revealing it in your hand? If you bluff the line earlier and insist that it's the Devil's Eye, that's what's going to tear the general guy's consciousness apart."
And more importantly, he's a guy who doesn't realize that.
The bandit, who heard my words, smiled joyfully and shook his shoulder.
"I've been doing everything I can to find out more about you than I can about living here. Appraisal Skills - - No, I'm going to ask the guy with those nasty demon eyes, and if he had demon eyes, he wouldn't be helpless in front of moonlight eyes, would he?
─ ─ ─ Your most. If you're up against the moonlight eye, at least it's more than the demon eye, and that's what wins are thin if you don't have the highest demon eye together.
The bandit pulled out the sword on his hip - - Oh, my God, he cut off only the rope that was tying the girl beautifully.
"" "...... Huh?
Exactly, I had an unexpected and clumsy voice in the act, but that was no exception for the girl herself or the staff member.
"Hey, what are you doing, boss!? The opponent is the executor, that's what the hostages are used to negotiate well, and only life is a stone to get help! What have you lost?"
Moments later, the bandit's sword cut off the staff member's neck, and the staff member who was calling was to shut his mouth forever.
What the hell do you want, you bandit?
A variety of hypotheses come to mind, truncated, and floating truncated, such as espionage from some country, an adventurer's guild manipulation, a lost fool, someone manipulating you - etc.
Honestly, I can't imagine what you want with me at all, and that's the same for a girl, and I don't think my head is following it even though people are dead in front of me.
That's what I thought, I was the one who started to be a little wary, but in one word of the next bandit, all my doubts dissolved.
"That's just pre-construction. To be complete, I'm a big fan of you. I knew you, and I decided to stop the bandit business, and I knew you, and the world looked bright, but I'm a bandit."
That said, the bandits lay their swords.
"I broke the law, I killed people, I burned down villages. I became a fan of you, but before that, there's nothing I can do about it, scum. That's why I wanted to die at your hands in the end. I've done some bad things to him..."
Hearing them, everything meshed.
Discovery of the home of a bandit guild that I have never been able to grasp.
When I came back.
And a hostage without a scratch and the words of this bandit.
─ ─ I see, this is a super big fool.
I create the Ice Demon Sword and hold it in my left hand. [M]
"You're such an idiot. And don't worry, it's the death row that got you involved anyway."
"Ha, I wish I'd met you a few years early."
So we kicked each other out of the ground.
"Is that okay? I did that."
Nail asked me that on my way home.
There was also a desire to ask back and make fun of it, but then perhaps it would only be pursued.
That's why I reluctantly asked.
"You mean I didn't kill that bandit's head?
"Yes, I think I should go back and kill him right now."
Instant answer.
Besides, I denied everything I did. Don't have a feeling you're going to hate me if I don't give you a good reason for this.
I, um, look up at the sky and think for a few seconds, put my thoughts together and talk.
He was lying.
"...... Huh?
I ignore Nail's surprise for a moment and move on. [M]
"He said, I broke the law, I killed people, I burned down the village. Certainly two of them (...) from what I saw with the moonlight eye were not lies, and the status had a proper 'bandit' title. I mean, why did you steal it?"
I put down a beat there and look back at the bandit Ajito, who is no longer visible.
"I certainly wasn't lying. But there's no such title as' Murderer ', and furthermore, there's no such title in my status that I'm killing this much. You know what that means?
Did Nair finally come up with an answer, he shouts up and looks back in the same direction as me without thinking?
It's not like I see anything else at all, but when it comes to time, it's time for that bandit to wake up and not be strange.
"Killing people, that means killing bandits," he said. Burning down the village is a bright red lie, or what the bandit guild did before it belonged to itself. Besides, he was reflecting. "
Well, that doesn't make the sin lighter, but that's too harsh a story to be executed just for stealing.
"I'm talking about that guy, you're gonna live somewhere too self-loathing to even help people. If you're saying it's bad, it's the only time you can catch him and kill him."
That's what I said, and I walk forward.
From behind, I heard Nail cursing, "You're sweet," but the voice was mixed with joy as to why.
