The world's strongest hard worker

Episode 14: Settlement

When I finished working with Mr. Lex,

"I see, the strength does seem real. Take on 100 gold pieces of Nightmare."

Mae said so without changing her expression.

"It's 100 pieces of gold, but I'll pay for it. I was originally thinking of paying for a thousand pieces. About a hundred gold coins."

"Mae... Lex... thank you."

I was sure to return 100 pieces of this gold to Mr. Lex in the near future.

In words, I kept it in mind because it seemed like it would destroy Mr. Lex's favor.

"I don't care. I just keep my promise. If you want to thank me, you just have to thank the loser."

/(adv-to, adv-to) (1) (on-mim) muddling/muddling/(2) (on-mim) (on-mim) muddling/

Mr Lex looked up at the name of the loser.

Meir asked me to come back here the next day, so it's over for today.

I told Mr. Lex that I belonged to the guild Tempest.

Mr. Lex didn't seem to know Tempest.

Lloyd and Dad seem to know each other, but not Mr. Lex.

... but I can see that my father has a great deal of trust from many people.

Not only is he strong as a swordsman, he also has a very strong reputation.

This popular thickness is probably why my father climbed up to Kensei.

In order for me to be the strongest in the world, I need to have more power than my father.

I was a little wondering if it would be necessary to hone your personality as many people like it as well as your strength.

A few days later, in the middle of the night, I was in Tempest.

From now on, Nightmare's plan will be implemented.

The information Mei gave me was quite useful.

They're targeting Raul, who's sleeping in an Alliance.

The final date is today.

And the infiltration method is magic equipment.

As for the magic equipment, there was an eye immediately.

When a man named Noah looked behind a desk, it was properly tricked.

A tag affixed to the back of a desk.

It is also a transparent bill that is invisible to ordinary people.

To recognize, you have to feel the magic that the bill emits slightly.

In addition, this tag has a transfer magic, and you can see that it is a fairly fine magic instrument.

Noah was visiting Tempest to set a target and affix this tag.

I realized, but I didn't dare to rip off the tag.

Remove the tag, and the sun will shift and attack again.

It won't solve anything.

That's why I chose to settle it today.

Finally.

It is Mr. Lex who speaks in the dark.

With your help, Mr. Lex took on the pleasure.

I'm sorry to keep you company at such a late hour, but Mr. Lex's cooperation is more than anything.

"Yes"

"Doesn't River get anxious?

"I'm worried. But I can't do anything without fear."

"Sure, you're right."

At that time, the bill suddenly glowed pale.

A strong light is emitted, illuminating the darkness.

It was clear that the Magic Gear was activated.

When the light went out, two men appeared.

One is a man named Noah, and the other one is smaller than Noah and has not changed much between me and my back.

"─ ─ That's strange, I didn't know there were still people left."

"Ahhh. Then I guess I can't help it. I don't mean to, but I guess I'll have to kill you."

That's what the little man said when he hung up the corner of his mouth.

Wait a minute.

Noah didn't listen to him, but he held a knife and stared at me.

It's a quick move, but it's not like I can't see.

Speed is the fastest thing I've ever said, but that's all.

With a monotonous movement, the difference in strength compared to Mr. Lex is obvious.

Instead of attacking from the front, the little man accelerated in front of me and turned around behind me.

Well, I guess so.

─ ─ What?

He grabbed the man's head and hit the ground, avoiding the knife he stabbed.

I'm not conscious anymore.

"Absolutely, the habit of not listening to people will never heal."

Noah sighed.

Long time no see, Mr. Noah.

"Oh, it's been a long time. I didn't expect to see you again like this."

"Yes, I felt uncomfortable when I first met him, so I took a lot of measures."

"Well, then, Livel was more than I could have imagined. I didn't think I could get there by naming it Nightmare... but it's wonderful. Besides, the man next door seems pretty strong. All I can do is run away."

"You can attack like this man."

"I'm watching the situation better than that. There's no way I can win. Can you miss it?

That's fine.

When I said so, Mr. Lex looked surprised, but didn't mention anything.

"... really. It sounds like I'm serious, and thanks to Livell's lovers, I'm gonna run away."

"Is this person good?

"Oh, it's troublesome to take care of an idiot. I'm not that close, and it would be helpful if you handled it properly."

"I see. Would you ask me to leave you one message instead of missing it?

"It's cheap."

"Tell the person who planned this incident, 'I won't forgive you next time.'"

"Okay. Bye bye."

Noah said so and left using magic tools.

"What a creepy ending."

That's right.

"I was surprised to miss the choice, but I don't think Mr. Aden did either.... and what about this one?"

"In the meantime, I'm going to give this man to the Knights."

"You'll be a criminal, and then you'll have your track record. Anyway, I'm glad it's over."

"Yes, thank you very much for today."

"No, no, no. I didn't do anything."

"It was pretty helpful just to be here. I don't think I could have missed it without Mr. Lex."

"Ha ha ha, well, I'm glad it helped."

... that's why I was able to safely prevent an attack from Nightmare.

The next day, I gave the Knights the identity of the little man who attacked me.

Johnny said it wasn't public, but the crime itself had been investigated, and as a result, he was officially treated as an A-ranked criminal.

As a result, I received 150 gold coins as a prize and returned 100 of them to Mr. Lex.
