The strongest sage in the inferior position ~ The strongest in the world to the bottom [villager] ~
Episode 122: Wise Men, Deceive Spies
His name is Children of Numbers (Numbers) "83".
There are several other names, but in the organization they are called by number.
Called by number is not very pleasant, but this is also one honor.
Because the less this number, the more barometer it represents strength.
Head east of Wang Du, using a back alley off the boulevard where people go.
Occasionally, check tail as you look behind you.
83 was clearly showing vigilant movements.
What came was not downtown Wangdu......
What was spreading was a corner lined with quiet mansions.
These are the villas used by the people of all parts of the country when they stay in the king's capital.
When celebrating festivals and New Year's Eve, it's a place where carriages hang out, but in normal times, it's frustrating.
There's a gatekeeper in front of the mansion, and the guard of the vigilante is glaring at him, but if he's a proper figure, he won't be called to that.
Especially the Adventurer's School outfit works immensely.
I know who I am just by wearing it, and as long as I keep my hair in order, my guard will be loose by mistake with my noble son.
It would be perfect if I showed you even a little challenging precious metal.
83 lightly gray hair.
I wore a metal ring on my hand and put up a stuffed collar.
And out on the street where the guards go.
Greeting him, the guards bowed their heads gently.
It's a little something.
Around the back of a mansion, look around again and make a final check.
I went inside.
This is a safe house built by the organization.
It only looks like an aristocratic mansion.
In fact, I haven't made it elaborate, and I haven't used any special magic.
Because if you do that, you stand out the other way.
Except if you go in there.
Because there are countless traps set up.
There is also a trick to blow this whole mansion away.
Undoing all that, 83 went to the basement of the mansion.
Before I open the door, I notice signs of people.
Apparently, my people have already arrived.
Momentum opened the door well, and 83 shouted.
"Hey! What are you talking about!? I didn't hear about the suicide bomber."
83 asked first about an attempted suicide bomber in this year's entrance exam for the fifth branch.
"Shifu of the Revolution" and "Child of the Number" are connected behind them.
It is common for there to be some kind of information-sharing when terrorizing, but with regard to this plan, 83 ears were not informed.
in order to avoid discussion with one another.
And this is the Safe House for the Shifu of the Revolution, prepared by Children of Numbers (Numbers).
83's purpose was to ascertain the case.
"I see.... were the Children of the Numbers (Numbers) and the Shifu of the Revolution still connected behind them?"
"- Huh!"
83 is breathtaking.
There was only one person in the room.
But in that familiar voice, my spine trembles.
Eventually, the rotating chair in the room slowly turned.
Soft, thin dark hair.
Deep blue eyes like I foresaw everything.
The mouth was full of confidence and leeway.
Back length is smaller than 83.
But the pressure the man wrapped around seemed to have put a giant dragon in front of him.
"Kuku......"
83 laughed unexpectedly.
Burning agony in the chest and cold suspicion.
I can see the cold sweat rushing through my spine.
Still, I had to laugh no matter what I saw of this situation.
The man wore the same uniform as 83.
On his right shoulder, "Blue Rose (Bourum)" blooms showing third class students.
On the contrary, the only one in the fifth branch - no, there was only one crest of oxen and axe painted in Galvair.
"What are you doing, Chairman Russell?"
83 slaps lightly.
"I've been waiting for you, Materus."
Russell Guiller Stark laughed.
◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆
Materus Infold.
Second Class Student, 5th Branch, School of Adventurers.
Affiliation of the Student Autonomous Association.
"I started doubting you as soon as I got into school."
"What are you talking about, Senior? I'm kind of refreshed..."
"Why I doubt you... That's because you were caught up in my checks when I started school."
"Nah - heh!
"Let's talk in order."
My fame also rose in the Kowloon Cup, and many exams arrived in the fifth branch.
The clerks and instructors are followed up with more than expected examinees.
Then I had to sweeten the check.
And it can be said that the moment was an excellent opportunity for "Children of Numbers (Numbers)" and "Shifu of the Revolution" to send operatives.
"So I built my own checking system. You're the one who got caught up there."
"Wait a minute, su. If I'm a spy, why won't the seniors catch me?
"It's easy to say why. You didn't do anything."
"Huh?"
"You never gave a shit about me or my people. So I never even set it up from here. Well, there wasn't much to it, so I let him hit one play."
"Play…………. You, no way--"
"Oh. Right."
The suicide bombing attempt on the entrance exam was a fake case I set up.
"To attract you."
"Nah..."
We had a fake case that Materus didn't know about, and I explored the reaction.
I chose the entrance exam day to make it look like it.
I woke him up in front of the exams to make sure he wasn't spying on him by the end of the year.
And as I see it, I succeeded in fishing for the spies that were among this year's examinees and the Materus.
"You're a good operative. I haven't done anything in the past year.
I decided to let Materus swim when I realized he was a Numbered Child.
Because I wanted to see how the organization came out.
But Materus did nothing.
Nothing ever moved.
So I still don't know the relationship with the organization or its full content.
Don't tell Materus, he brainwashed and tried to make him confess, but he had advanced mental defenses embedded in him.
Moreover, it confirmed that some of the first magic techniques of the great old, rather than the magic of the current system, were used.
That's right, too. If I were to break that mental defense, I would have to break the Materus in circles and analyze it, and I had a history of abandoning it.
So, I guess the good guy runs the organization.
I look forward to seeing you.
"Therefore, because of his excellence, he was upset when he encountered a terrorist incident that had not been previously informed. The idea that this is a fake case was also in the corner of your head, wasn't it? Still, you had to check. Because of his excellence, he moved if he didn't keep track of things."
"Ha... Ha ha ha..."
Materus laughs.
He covered his face like a heroine in tragedy and sounded a laugh.
"Can I ask you two more questions, sss?
"That's good. For once, you were my godson."
I continued to be Sheila's instructor, but I was also in charge of the new second-grade party.
One of them was Materus.
Of course, it's no coincidence.
I hung up on school, and I made up my mind.
"One item. What happened to the people who were here, S?
"I kept them all inside [storage] while you were hooked on security. I didn't know there was a" Shifu of the Revolution "twist here. I thought it was a noble mansion."
"Well then... Until I get here, this rattle..."
"I didn't know."
"You mean faster than I came here and you walked into this room?
"Exactly...?
"How monstrous, you!?
"Rude. Compared to the old me, it's human space."
I've gotten a lot stronger in the past year and a half, but not yet.
Me when I was the strongest in each function and the former would definitely win if I fought now.
"Ha...... Who the hell are you?
"Is that the second one?
"That's right."
"You know what I mean.
[Villager] It's Russell Guiller Stark.
