Bourdon-Fuerde, who has been beaten to death by his beloved son, is naturally furious.

Somehow, I wanted to find Heine and Pilate and take revenge.

But there's nothing I can do to help you find them. Besides, even if I can find them, I don't know if I can conquer them.

So I tried to use Hunter's Larrabee, who has the ability to find and suppress both of them...

Bourdon - Fjorde hands over the money, and the bandits find Heine and Pilate and arrest them...

Bourdon-Fujolde has finally figured out why he's been working so hard against these bandits. The reason itself was something that gave rise to vomiting, but...

Well, there must have been a connection before that, but it's probably because Hoogie died that the connection actually got thicker.

However, from what I heard when I killed Fuji, I really did what I wanted, and I deserved it.

If you have a grudge against it, it would be better for those who have been shown some eyes by Fuji to clear their grudges first. I can only think that Heine and the others, who had merely taken it on their behalf, were resented by the fact that they were putting themselves on the shelf. Well, I told Bourdon-Fjorde that, but it's impossible to get through...

Thinking of the world, unlike Bourdon, who was only covering the outer surface, he was doing whatever he wanted without even worrying about the outer surface. It's no surprise that those who saw it thought that Bourdon had put Hoog at a distance.

That's how it turns out that Bourdon teamed up with the bandits. But... that's a good thing at the earliest.

In this situation, Bourdon was not there at the earliest. Your attitude, your body and your voice are huge, but that's all. I can't help you. In essence, there were nine of them left.

The problem was that all nine of them felt the air of the powerful. Even those who weren't players... I didn't feel any intimidation like Rox, but it was definitely strong.

Everyone was wary of me and no one was looking away from me with their eyes on the sounding parent pig. I don't have a weapon, and I have a whole hip. Well, I have a hip bag with items in it, but if I'm so vigilant, I can't help but turn my hand on the hip bag and slash it.

Careful action will have to be taken here.

First of all, telling them to throw their weapons away, and then not launching an attack immediately, is good in the sense that they want to talk to me. I don't know if you want this information or if I need it myself, but it doesn't seem like it's going to rain magically all of a sudden.

"Nevertheless, I didn't expect the five of us to be so worn out."

That means the name of the solo player Cynthia wasn't Date. "

"Akito said a lot of things, but it was true."

Looking at me, it looks like the players are talking, but I keep standing up without talking or moving.

That's more than enough until everyone in the Eagle Crowe gets close. If silence alone is enough to buy time, it is not enough.

I never crossed the border... but the other was a member of the Tempest who reigned at the height of the bandits and was even closer to Barabanta. There's no such thing as bad-headed folks, so they calm down and one of the players beside Barabanta comes forward.

“Ask a few questions. Answer honestly.”

…………………

"Tell me a few of your people."

"... I don't know the exact number, but only a thousand of them got into this city."

I'd like to know how many people have come in, but I'm not asking for that.

There were enemies on the outer wall, so I knew how many people were on board.

In other words, this question is a question to investigate whether I am telling the truth, and the question itself is unnecessary.

If you get the answer wrong, perhaps the hostage woman will be killed.

I don't want to see my life lost in front of me anymore. Let's be careful here and be sure to come up with an answer.

“The next question. Where are they now?"

This question is a little difficult.

We've been listening to Shinobi, and we all know we're here in about ten minutes.

But the question is whether they know that I know that…

If you think about it normally, you might not know it, but if you think about it carefully, the secret forces, the Hands, did not come out until the end of the battle with Handyman's head, Rox. You should probably think that all of them were blown away by the magic of the wind-cutting feathers, but if they saw Shinobi talking to me, there's a good chance that the information has arrived. Best of all, who told us that Barabanta wanted me to come alone? It is believed that this is somewhat anticipated.

I'm sure you're aware of our covert presence.

However, the idea that the ninjas would fall behind in their hands was also difficult.

I'm worried about my judgment.

The other thing is that I am concerned about the case where the black dog was moving... but I leave the matter of the black dog to Renya, and if there is no sound, the black dog should not be moving.

I was lost for a moment as to which one to take, but I immediately returned the answer.

"... I don't know. We came all the way here." I don't even know what the others are doing. "

My answer was, I don't know.

The reason I answered that was because even if the Hands survived, I don't think they were better than the Ninjas, stealing their eyes and watching us.

There's no such thing as zero possibilities, but I believe in the power of ninja if I believe in it. That's the answer.

"...... if you lie, you know what happens to these people here... right?"

"Phew..."

A blade that approaches the woman in front of her.

The player's man just gazes, and the man who is catching the woman flips the blade around the woman's neck.

A woman with tears in her eyes who asks me for help.

“I don't know because I don't really know.”

I'll answer that right away.

If I knew I was lying, I would have killed the hostage woman instantly, without daring to threaten her. If you don't, you can't tell if I'm lying.

Perhaps he suspected that I had only left him for a moment. I was really lost for a short time, so I'm not sure what time it was. That's why you're threatening me and watching my reaction.

It's good to answer carefully, but it seems dangerous to answer strangely. You must answer with care.

"...... Hmm. Next question."

In response to my reaction, when the man snorted his nose, the blade that was close to the woman was pulled, and I moved to the next question.

Where are the other four of your crew and the secret forces?

After all, I think I know about the ninjas.

"The other four came apart where Rox had been defeated." I don't know about the undercover unit, but it seems that one of them, who came here to tell me to come alone, split up in the same place that defeated Rox, and then headed toward the city. ”

……………………

I don't know if the Hands were watching what happened after they split up with Shinobi. I don't know, but at least I know Shinobi gave us the information. Or I guess I'm guessing.

When that happens, the possibility of watching is not zero, and it is good to tell the truth here.

I'm telling you the truth... but Shinobi didn't go to the city, he went to contact Eagle Crow and Kevin there, but the people in front of him don't know anything about it. And Nil and the others are separated, but they don't know what will happen with their behavior.

I mean, I'm not lying, but I'm not telling the whole truth.

This kind of discourse is something you learn even if you don't like when you become a social worker and work for a company. I didn't expect the experience back then to be useful in this way... but experience is important.

In response to my answer, it looks like the player's man is trying to determine whether it's true or not, but he's making up his mind.

So as to confirm the truth here, right now neither Shinobi nor Nilu can find out where they are because they are moving around with each other. Even if I grabbed it, I couldn't do anything about the location of the other person who was moving around. And moving around just proves that I don't know the exact location of my people in front of me. There is no problem.

"... next."

The man I feel confident answering will move on to the next question.

"What's your friend demon?" And where did you get it? "

Well, if it was between players, it would be natural for them to be friends.

After one incident on Ouca Island was over, I was notified that the Friend Demon System had been released. If that's what all the players in this world have been told, it's probably the most sought-after topic among players right now. If there is a smartphone in this world, it must be the word that shines first in the trend.

And if you can tell that some of the top trending friend demons obviously use more powerful magic than others, it's only natural that you should be concerned.

However, the problem here is that the power of the Holy Soul that I use is the same as that of the Friend Demon, but it is also completely different.

My sacred soul magic is the power that Bertonelei gave me, and it's completely different from my contract with Friends and Demons. Because the fundamental part was different, it was all different from the power of their imagined friend.

Even if I die, it doesn't release my friend and demon like when I was Nanasino, and since it's not a contract in the first place, no matter how I do it, I can't get the same power as the Holy Soul Magic I use.

But......

When Barabanta thought about why he stayed here, he thought that if he killed and stole my contracted friend demon, it would be irrelevant... If he knew that he couldn't take my power, he would execute the escape plan using the hostage as his shield. Worst of all, there are quite a few casualties.

And it's very likely that you're thinking that way.

I thought so, but if the story of the Friend Demon appeared here, the possibility would go up.

In the end, it turns out that Barabanta was only thinking about taking away the power of my friend.

I don't know if that's the only reason I'm here, unless Barabanta himself talks... but at least he's after my power.

In this situation, it's a bad idea to make people realize that they can't take away my power. It's a good place to convince them that they can take my power and try to get them to kill me. In other words, I should tell them that my Holy Soul Magic is the same as a normal Friend Demon's contract.

But in that case, of course, I had to tell you who the Friend Devil was and where he was.

The sacred soul magic I used was the earth magic used by Caricanjaros and the tree magic used by Durias.

As Bertonilay said, most of the sacred souls in this world are taken out by Bertonilay when he isolates them from people. By chance, almost all of the higher beings in the Holy Spirit, such as Caricanjaros and Durias, took to that island.

In other words, I can only say that I do not know the location of higher sacred souls like Caricanjaros and Durias. If I had stayed on this continent and knew where it was, I would never have told you.

In other words, what I'm telling you is something that sounds like a lie, but it's probably the right choice to tell it.

And the content of it... From the other person's point of view, I don't know where my powers come from, Caricanjaros and Durias. Therefore, among the holy souls that can be contracted as friends and demons, it is the best answer to tell the holy souls who are skilled in earth magic and tree magic and who are likely to be on the continent, and where they are likely to be.

when it became a holy soul that could be thought of there.....

"My name is Pollevik."

Pollevik is a sacred soul that excels in the magic of the earth and trees, and it looks like there's a lot of grass growing in the human mud.

You might think that it reminds me of Greenman somewhere, but it's about the size of my knee, and because it's a pretty cute holy soul, it doesn't look like Greenman.

It seems to be a very gentle, mild soul that prefers farmers who grow crops.

However... this sacred soul called Pollevyk is really generous in character, and the magic that can be used to draw strength enriches the soil and improves the growth of crops... The name is also "Toyotomi" magic. With the magic named as it is, I think it is magic that farmers want to get their hands out of their throats, but it is not attack magic, and there is no power to kill people. It's a magic that has the power to keep people alive.

In other words, I can't use the magic of my power at all, and it's a crimson lie.

However, the friend demon is not so easy to meet, and Pollevik likes people like farmers, so he is never close to the bandits who are his enemies. Therefore, they don't know whether my magic belongs to Pollevik or not.

The name of the Spirit Pollevik was also in the other world.

Russia... somewhere, the guardian spirits of the field... I don't remember exactly, and I've played a lot of games and heard about them, but it's definitely a name that exists in the other world.

If anyone knew the name of Pollevik, it would be somewhat daunting and unsuspecting for him to become the spirit of the field and to be skilled in the magic of the earth and wood.

“The contract is for… a forest of abundance.”

It's subtle to see how far Barabanta could control the slime. Rox was suspicious, but he wasn't sure, and Barabanta seemed similar. However, there is a possibility that Barabanta, who wants to have my power to herself, is aware and hasn't told his subordinates. Considering that Suratan has a contract with a friend and demon, it would be best to think that he signed a contract in the Toyotomi Forest.

"The forest of abundance... the forest of rock birds."

Listening to me, another player beside Barabanta hears the player asking questions.

"... a friend named Pollevik uses the magic of earth and wood, right?"

Yeah.

Someone among the players knew the name Pollevik. I'm glad I didn't have to use a proper name.

"If so, how did you get the contract? And what was the wind magic just now?"

Well... I guess so.

"One of my people has a demon eye for the contract." So I made a deal. "

It was true that I had a Demon Eye, but it was a lie that I had a contract.

At the time of Nanashino's contract, he must have known about the Magic Eye. Instead of telling strange lies, you'd better say it's the power of the Demon Eye.

And another question.

An earthen wall standing on the outside of the city's outer wall. And the magic of the tree that slaughtered Nanacino. Even if these two are the power of Pollevik, I can't explain the wind magic that blew up the Mansion.

That's the effect of the item I got from the Rock Bird.

There will be no problem in telling the truth about this.

I heard it was a Rock Bird item, alright! Let's go get it! It's not something you can think of and take away.

A single wind-cutting feather unleashed enough magic to make the Rock Bird unleash that magic in a row.

Even if I tried to steal an item from a monster equivalent to the SS rank, it would kill me. In particular, the Rock Bird, who lives in the forest of abundance, has been on the lookout for eggs the other day, and the bandits must be on the lookout. Worst of all, it's possible that the bandits just got close to the forest and that magic could even fly.

I felt like I had a high level of intelligence, and I would not attack people indiscriminately, but I would be able to identify those with bad intentions. In other words, it can be said that they will never get that wind-cutting feather.

"Tsk......"

Because they know that, the player they heard is tonguing.

I don't think you're taking my whole story for granted, but you have to take my word for it.

"...... one last question."

So far, I've been able to buy myself a few minutes... but we still don't have enough time to get ready. I'd like to prolong the conversation a little longer... but I don't want to see the woman in front of me die by interrupting the conversation poorly. I'll shut up and listen to the last question.

“You know Vitalia-Hetanarca and her daughter Sanamari-Hetanarca?”

…………

Too abrupt, I'm confused for a moment about the name I didn't expect to hear here.

Vitalia - Hetanarka.

The innkeeper named Aoki's garden is an elegant woman who lives with her daughter in a house with lots of blue trees.

Since Heine and Pilté attacked her daughter Sanamari, Nil and I embarked on a search, and we also took over the business meeting with Ms. Hurina.
