The Strongest Wizard Becomes a Countryside Guardsman After Taking an Arrow to the Knee

It was a middle-aged merchant-style man who opened the door.

Instead of using spiritual magic, I don't even think he's a magician.

Probably doesn't look like an adventurer either.

"Welcome aboard, Mr. Torf"

"Yes, no"

Tokru is not hiding the tension.

Seeing how it goes, the middle-aged man looks suspicious.

"What's wrong?

"Yes, no, nothing."

"Really? Let's talk inside."

"Yes."

Tokuru walked into the cabin uninvited.

"Cruz, stand by the window."

Copy that, sir.

"Femme need to find the back door."

I'll take care of it.

'If there's a back door, wait there. If not, ask for standby near Cruz'

Copy that.

Cruz erased the signs and dived himself near the window.

Femme quietly looks around the cabin.

"Morphy's the front door with me."

"Good luck"

Me and Morphy approach the front door.

Soon I'll run a magic expedition through the front door.

The front door was magically locked.

Even a first-rate magician is a fine thing that seems to take an hour to unlock.

Afterwards, the entire cabin is shock- and fire-resistant.

It doesn't seem easy to break down walls and break in.

"Was there a back door?

"There it is. When you want me to break in, you tell me."

'It should probably be magically locked. Femme must prevent the enemy from trying to escape.'

"Leave it to me."

"Cruz. Perhaps the windows are magically enhanced"

"I see."

"When it comes to what if, smash it all you want"

"Okay."

"For once, me and Cruz will keep our faces hidden."

"Okay."

I unlocked the magic key on the door while wearing the wolf's cover.

Because when a tocle is likely to cause harm, it cannot be brought about.

Just do that, and I'll magically check out what's going on in the cabin.

There's another one in the cabin besides Tokul and a middle-aged merchant.

We seem to be having a conversation, but we can't really hear what's going on.

I magically sharpened my hearing.

I can hear the noise inside every now and then. They're magically not soundproof.

"What the hell are you?

Tokul is asking. Tokul looked known as a middle-aged merchant.

But I guess it was the first time I met the other one.

"He's just a business partner."

"... Really?"

The other is silent. I still don't know the gender or race.

Tokuru doesn't seem convinced by the middle-aged man's explanation.

Tokuru proceeds without listening deeply.

"It's about buying and selling spiritual stones..."

"Is it going to be possible to sign a contract?

"That's..."

"Something wrong?

"Unless you reveal to who you're going to sell it to, it means you'll only sell spiritual stones the size of this."

Tokuru is speaking fluently, as if it were a lie to have been nervous until earlier.

If you don't even get fooled, maybe you're right for every negotiation.

"Is that all?

The middle-aged man is dissatisfied.

"Yes, it can be dangerous depending on how you use it, so you can't sell it to people you don't trust..."

"Hmm."

There are indications that the middle-aged man and the other are consulting something.

"... let's just buy that for now"

Copy that, sir.

"If you buy one by one, you might trust me one of these days."

"And..."

"Do you still have it?

"Yes. If you're selling to your first opponent, this size of spiritual stone will cost you this much too..."

That's the amount I offered in my first negotiation with Tokul.

It is very expensive.

"Such an idiot!

"No, it's true"

"Isn't that terrible!

"Nevertheless, the other party insists that it cannot be sold without that price..."

"Did you make such an unscrupulous request and come back awesome without even negotiating?

The tone of a middle-aged man is mixed with accusations.

"Of course, we have negotiated. We're also pulling out new conditions."

"Really? I suppose so. So, on what terms?

"If we can meet the seller once, he says this is the price. Plus, you could sell more."

"It's..."

"I think it's a condition of breaking."

"That's certainly true"

Middle-aged people seem troubled.

"If you think it's a condition of breaking, I don't know if there's any reason to say no..."

"But if you say you want to buy it, you don't want to reveal who you are..."

That's where Tokul lurks his voice.

"The sellers also said they had succeeded in providing a steady supply of spiritual stones"

"Hmm?"

"If we're going to make a long deal in the future, it won't hurt to see you again."

"Hmm."

"Plus, I put the condition that we don't do business directly by eliminating us"

"That's important."

"Yes."

The middle-aged man seems to have begun to think that I could let him see me.

Tokru is good at putting it in the mouth car.

As long as you gain experience, you could be a good merchant.

That's when a sharp voice sounded.

"You. You turned your back on the enemy, didn't you?

Both Tokul and middle-aged men have different voices.

Another person opened his mouth for the first time.

"What did you say?"

Tokul's voice is trembling.

"The traitor has to kill"

"Hih."

All of a sudden, it looks like the other person got angry.

We can't just wait and let Tokuru die.

I decided to go inside the cabin.
