The wife of the villains, returning to death to change her mind.

"... is this report true?"

Tristan Seim, the adventurer's union president of the Utopian Adventurer's Union of the Holy Land of Ledert, stared at the contents of the many documents in his hand as if they were percussion, and asked with a squeezing voice after chewing them in his head.

The person I asked was the person standing in front of me, a member of the Adventurers' Union, who often works behind the scenes.

At first glance, it may be difficult to sense its power from standing quietly in a pitch-black garment that is a high level magic tool with hidden performance.

However, Elaine and other humans with more than a certain amount of strength, that person had enough strength to know that even standing alone would soon be enough.

She replies quietly to Tristan's questions in an unusual and rather confused manner.

"... yes, I'm sure. In the Tarmilla Mountains, one of the highest mountains in the Holy Land of Ledert, there was a secret entrance. There were several villages at the foot, but the villagers didn't seem to realize that there were such things there, even if it was certainly undiscovered."

"I asked the villagers about it... can't it be?" You can't even do that. "

“Of course it is. What we heard in the villages was the range of action of the villagers, but it seems that there have been many plots in the Tarmilla Mountains that have been forbidden to enter since ancient times, and this place was exactly like that. However, the villagers do not know why the entrance was prohibited by the village law. However, in light of this discovery....."

So Tristan nods and answers to the people in the intelligence department who cut the words.

"Probably there were a lot of people who hadn't come back from quite ancient times." Certainly, there are a lot of undiscovered labyrinths in places around the world where such legends still exist. ”

"In a normal labyrinth, if you enter through the entrance a little, there won't be any monsters that are so powerful, so it won't be treated like that..."

"Ahh, the labyrinths in those places are all so called absolutely unbroken labyrinths, which are all quite dangerous... and that's quite a possibility."

Absolutely unbroken labyrinth is a common name for such a labyrinth that, although it is good to be found, no one is able to break through it and a long period of time has passed.

Normal unbroken labyrinths are seen as adventurers with considerable heroic temperament and strength that can be broken if challenged. In fact, it is often reported that such labyrinths have been broken.

However, such reports are never made in a labyrinth that has never been broken.

Rather, I often hear that such heroes have challenged, but never returned, and the number of violent owners who have died in such a challenge this year.

Tristan couldn't hide his confusion that the labyrinth he'd found would be exactly like that.

In the first place, this should have been a bet.

If you don't find the labyrinth, you'll definitely win the bet that you can accommodate the powerful shield magic recently unveiled in the Istward Kingdom.

And yet, how is reality?

The labyrinth was indeed found.

Moreover, there is a labyrinth that seems to be an incredibly difficult labyrinth that has never been broken.

"... no good. I made a promise."

“What will happen? In the first place, what was the source of the information about the location of that labyrinth this time...?"

That's why the people in the intelligence department took the headscarf they were wearing.

The face there belonged, surprisingly, to an upright woman.

"A very talkative woman these days. You know that, don't you?"

"... is it the Duchess of the neighbouring country, Elaine, who is visiting the Holy Land of Ledert?"

“Exactly. She's been following me through the labyrinth.”

"Oh no... that's strange! It was only a short while ago that Lord Elaine visited this country." And yet, why is there such a labyrinth behind such a distant mountain..... "

"There's a lot of confusion... but I can't say about that without her permission"

That is, it is information brought about by those who possess the power of prophecy.

Tristan decided that it would be good if he had information about it.

Because, first of all, I have a brother-in-law with Elaine.

According to what I've heard from before, she's a selfish duchess with a vicious part that doesn't bother people much, but as far as I can see when I actually see her now, it's not like that.

In other words, the intuition of being a trustworthy person worked.

Of course, judging things by such things alone is a problem, but after gathering a lot of information, it was difficult to deny that the last thing to rely on was such an unexplained problem.

I told Tristan not to betray Elaine.

In addition, there are other reasons.

It's a simple story, but because some people have the power of prophecy, who will believe the story?

When I talked to Tristan and asked Elaine about it, I didn't believe it at all.

That's why, at first, I was going to poke it completely, and I was putting conditions on it.

And yet, if you look into it like this, what she was saying is nothing but the truth...

"After all, this bet is my complete defeat." Oh dear... it was definitely the introduction of a high-ranking adventurer who could help her..... "

I'm in trouble.

Hiring a high-ranking adventurer is not an easy thing to do.

Even if the leader of the Adventurers' Union calls them, they have the right to refuse.

It is very difficult to force people to accept requests.

In the first place, the request fee is very high, but for Elaine, this point will not be a problem at all.

I have heard that she is a wealthy duchess and that she personally makes money by devising various kinds of magic tools.

Even if it's a high level adventurer's fee, you can still pay it.

However, there is still a problem.

It wasn't impossible to explore the labyrinth normally, as long as I needed a high-ranking adventurer to escort me.

But what Elaine wants is personnel to break through the labyrinth.

I mean, call the best adventurer in the world.

That's what breaking the labyrinth is all about.

Is she serious? and you want to tilt your neck a lot.

"But I'm pretty sure you were serious... I can't help it." Can you get in touch with Thunder Dragon's Hammer ? "

Tristan tells the intelligence department in front of him.

Usually, I don't ask the information department to contact the adventurer.

It's enough to simply communicate by letter, etc., and in the first place, if you're an ordinary adventurer, it's enough to pull someone who will come to the Adventurer's Union tomorrow to get a request.

However, when it came to the [Hammer of the Thunder Dragon], the story would be different.

"Are you [Thunder Dragon's Hammer]!?" But now, they're definitely.... "

"Yes, you were challenging the [Immortal Coffin] in the labyrinth north." But call me back. "

"Will they hear such a story..."

There is a reason why the woman in the information department murmured with a troubled expression. In general, the higher the adventurer, the more difficult it becomes.

The intense pride of having lived by one's own armpits made him do so.

However, on the other hand, there are many people who do not hesitate to help those who like them.

Thunder Dragon's Hammer was an adventurer party in the middle. It had a good basic character, but it was also proud, so they were like role models when people imagined high-ranking adventurers.

Tristan tells a woman.

"We're going to do something about it." Just bring me here for now, that's all. As for persuasion... I'll do it myself. "

Is it for Elaine-sama?

"That's right. You're pushing us to a very difficult task, so if you don't do that kind of thing, it won't work out... Oh, if you say you don't want to come here, you can say you want to be nominated." I'll put my head on it. "

"... are you sure?"

The woman asked worriedly because, even if Tristan were the leader of the Adventurer's Union, it was only a branch of the Adventurer's Union.

The head of the adventurer's union in the holy city of Utopia is the head of the union, which is situated well above the Holy Land of Ledert.

However, there was no power to move the highest ranking adventurer party with your chin.

At most, I would say that if I did not receive a request for appointment, I would downgrade it by one grade.

For adventurers, if a level goes down, they will lose various privileges, and the amount of rewards they can receive will decrease considerably.

Especially if you are a first-ranking adventurer, your treatment will change significantly compared to lesser adventurers.

Even if it was originally a commoner, in some countries it would be guaranteed an authority equal to that of the nobility of the count.

It was hard to say that I would deprive you of such privileges, even if you were a Rock Rank 1 adventurer.

Of course, there was no real possibility of being turned down, but right now [Thunder Dragon's Hammer] was exploring the labyrinth, not asking for it, but gathering materials and weapons to strengthen their fighting power.

Therefore, there is a prediction that if such a condition can be imposed, it will come reluctantly.

However, in that case, it's not hard to imagine being angry with Tristan, which is why he says he has his head on.

I didn't want to do that if I could do it as Tristan.

However, it is unavoidable.

I made a promise.

That's why Tristan told the woman.

"It's okay. Anyway, I asked for it..."

"Yes, I was in awe... so excuse me."

When the woman said that and disappeared from the room like a shadow, Tristan put his hand on his forehead and looked up into the air.

”I guess now... I've registered someone as an adventurer.”

Yes, Tristan regretted it.

Because I hadn't imagined that registering just one woman as an adventurer would be a problem for me.

It's just that some interesting people came along, and that's how it felt at first.

But I also thought it was getting interesting at the same time.

At this point, Tristan was bored.

Because there's something wrong with this country, the Holy Land of Redert.

The upper echelons, though not very conspicuous, are struggling for power to the extent that anyone in Tristan's position can tell, and they're getting stinky.

Tristan didn't like that much.

I have been an adventurer since ancient times, and there have been quite a few cases of the whims of those in power, who have been damaged by tyranny.

Therefore, as the president of the Utopia Adventurers' Union, I have been asked several times to reveal the flag, but for now I remain neutral.

Still, I think the day will come when you'll have to choose... but it's not the right time to choose.

At least until the next Saintess is clearly decided.

The saintly woman is the most important being in this country, but there is a flaw in it that we really must know who will hold the position at that time.

The pope is easier to predict than he is to predict, but it is still a fact that it varies greatly depending on who becomes a saintess.

In other words, neutrality is the position that the Adventurer's Union will continue to take...

But that's not very interesting.

Tristan may have wished somewhere that something could make things happen.

Elaine felt that it might be something like that.
