One day, some time after visiting the Temple, it was decided to exchange information with other adventurers at Mr. Bence's suggestion.

Now the anomaly around Severia has healed, and the number of sighting reports of Diabols has decreased considerably. You think there are many mistakes even if there are?

However, the adventurers I met said they encountered Diabols about the same time they fought at the temple.

When he gets back from the investigation, he wants to know we fought at the temple and talk about it in detail.

So Bens summed up the conversation with the adventurers once in a while.

For that reason, today we are accompanying Sisha to the association of Severia.

"Ha, face-to-face with the other adventurers. I'm getting nervous."

"Don't freak me out, please freak me out. As the same adventurer in that way, you'll be insulted!

"I'm not going to rush anything..."

The opponent looks like a five-person B-rank party, and when they all get together, they get a huge number of people.

So I elected one representative and one escort at a time, and I decided to meet him once.

And after discussing it with Estelle and the others, this time we're taking Sisha.

He said he shouldn't be treated like I just said, and he said he seemed to know a lot about the story.

If it's true, Estelle would be appropriate, but she declined because she said she looked too young.

I didn't have a problem with Knoll either...... Sisha was chosen considering the rush and the insight to spot people.

I don't think it's going to be like when we were in Dius because we're in B-rank anymore, but it's our first meeting, so let's keep in mind.

"I'm going as a representative, so I have to come with the attitude that I deserve. Even in places like that, it involves trust with the other person."

"Is that what this is all about?

"Yes, if you have a confident look, no matter what the basis, it's generally something you believe in. And then, when you have trouble replying, just smile silently. I don't care if they take a bad word for it. If anything happens, you don't remember saying that, do you? It's deceptive."

This guy says the same thing I don't think of as a cleric...

It's dependable in a way, but are you glad you chose me as your escort?

Without taking my anxiety for a thing like that, Sisha has her hands on her hips and her chest stretched out.

"Whatever it is, this is me with you. You have nothing to worry about. Mr. Okura, please stand with Dossili!

"Uh, yeah. Yeah, I'm counting on you."

"Ugh, that's fine. So..."

If you're so grand, your first impression would be that you can count on it.

... Right, you attend as a delegate, so let's do our best to deal with it in a dignified way so we can't lose.

I might have the same opportunity from now on, and it's time for me to get used to it.

Upon arrival at the association, he was led to a conference room where seats were provided to face one desk.

I was here early, so I sat and waited, and there was the sound of a concon and a knock on the door.

Mr. Bence came in at the same time as he took his seat and set up a system of reception.

And later followed by two pairs of men and women together.

The woman has short golden hair and a vibrant atmosphere. Sleeveless jacket and long trousers outfit make it seem slightly lighter for adventurers, but that fits well.

The man turned his blue hair upside down...... it looks a little scary. I have my jacket open forward and I see a broken abs in the bee.

Still, it doesn't feel muscular, it's overall tight and skinny.

He looked sharply at me and was about to eat and kill me. I was about to drink goku and spit, but I enjoyed it.

Those two are Sevaria's B-rank adventurers... but that doesn't sound like a good idea.

In the meantime I bowed silently and lightly, only the woman smiled and greeted me in the same way.

We'll take our seats again after Mr. Bence sat down.

"Whoa, uh, thank you for coming together today. As I told you the other day, this time we have set up this occasion to discuss the anomalies around Severia. So let's start by saying hello to each other."

Mr. Bence urged me to take a seat and start saying hello.

"It's Heihachi Ogura. At the request of the president of the association of the Wang Capital, I have come to examine the deviation of Sevaria. I'm still in this town and the sun is shallow and I don't think there's a point, thank you."

All right, I got a tough greeting! This would make a good first impression... huh?

I thought it was perfect, but the woman sitting across the street looked surprised with her eyes round.

What, did something go wrong now? You even look confused to the man sitting next to you.

I suppressed my gear to some extent to say hello today, and it looks normal.

When I glance at Chillah Sissha, she's shaking her neck sideways, not knowing why.

When I was having trouble with the two of them, the woman stood up in a hurry to see if she had regained her mind.

"I'm sorry, I'm surprised it's not what I imagined from what I was hearing in the rumors. I'm Gret. Sorry I couldn't help you this time."

Yep... what the hell kind of rumors are you hearing about me being surprised to say hello normally?

I questioned that, but went on to switch my mind immediately because Mr. Grett had been bowing his head.

And the moment I tried to open my mouth to respond, a man interrupted the conversation.

"Damn, how many heads are down? You just happened to have a handle on it as soon as you came from elsewhere. You're the lucky ones."

"Mars, don't be a foolish loser. I told you to stop doing that."

"Huh? Nothing to lose."

Furthermore, Mr. Mars tried to continue the conversation, but suddenly he stopped saying it and began to wander.

If you follow the end of that gaze...... Sitting face to face Sissha is silently turning a very good smile at him.

Yeah, it's like Mr. Estelle does it a lot.

"Hey, what's up?"

"My name is Sisha Alvi. Best regards,"

"Ooh... it's Mars"

It's just a greeting, but I lost momentum until just now to see if I was pressured.

That's Sisha... not very much for me, but you can't imitate it.

"I'm sorry, they're rude."

"No, never mind. More rumors than that..."

"I've heard about your party from other adventurers, and the one I hear most often is that you beat up a B-rank adventurer around the time of the E-rank. Especially the leader guy who heard his surroundings would be scared just by looking... but it's normal to actually meet him"

"Ugh, that's what they say. I'm here today to exchange information, so I'm just dressed like a normal person."

"... I see. I'd like to see the rumor outfit."

We're supposed to have slapped Dius before long!?

Besides, my surroundings are frightened... even though I've been taking off my helm properly all over town lately, I'm starting to get rumors like that.

Is it better than being molested?

"I don't care. Let's get started."

"Oh, yeah. Well, let's start with a summary of the status quo."

Mr. Bence nodded at Mr. Marth's words and began to sort out what had been going on.

First, Diabols sighting reports followed around Severia.

At the same time, there was an anomaly in some hunting grounds where demons sprung up changed.

He attacked the Patron Saint's temple in an attempt to make it lose the protection it was protecting the area.

But I thought we stopped it and Diabols was gone from around here...

It turns out that Mr. Grett and the others were encountering each other in another area at the same time.

"Since Mr. Okura and the others defeated the example demons at the request of the Temple, the number of sightings has decreased considerably. I don't know if everything is that demon because of possible mistakes or other demons..."

"What Mr. Grett and the others encountered this time was an example demon, right?

"You're a flying demon with red eyes, black all over you, and a trident spear, right? We've run into each other a couple of times, so we're pretty sure."

Yeah, don't match the characteristics of Diabolus.

Besides, if you've seen it many times, you can't seem to go wrong.

It was Mr. Grett and the others who were investigating this before we got here.

Following this story, now Sisha started asking questions.

"It does match the characteristics. So it became a battle?

"... oh, they got away with one more step though. You're a quick monster to get away with."

"They fly in the sky, so you can't help it. Never mind, cheer up."

"Ah? I don't care! Don't let a priest say you don't fight directly!

Stop it! Don't say that to that militant priest! Because I will gladly start fighting demons!

I was worried I wouldn't say anything weird on the provocation, but Sisha kept her mouth shut with a smile on her face.

I didn't know rough sissy hah was always grown up...... sounds like he'll keep it down in these places for once.

Still, Mr. Mars is a tough hit on us.

Earlier Mr. Grett said something about losing, but are you unhappy that we handled it first?

He still seemed to have a bad tooth cut where he got away, and maybe he has pride.

Try not to touch this place because it will be a hassle later even if you get badly broken up.

While distracted by the interactions between the Sisha and the others, Mr. Grett continued the conversation.

"We've been exploring the southern coast for a while, but what we've encountered should be close to the time when you defeated the demons with your temples and whiskeys. Survival may have escaped. I can't believe there were five others like that, I just got chills from listening to them."

Um, don't worry about the same period.

Looks like one, but don't come to that temple. Were you doing something elsewhere?

Then there's the possibility that the monastery was a monument... how well prepared is that demon?

I knew the guy behind it sounded like a pretty nasty opponent.

"Do you know where the demon ran off to?

"I tried to follow him for a while, but I had to give up on my way to the sea. I don't think I crossed the ocean like that..."

Either you escaped to the other side of the ocean, or you escaped somewhat to the seaside and fled far away to another land, and either way, they don't know where you're going.

Mm-hmm. As I was haunting my head, Mr. Bence raised his voice.

"The place Mr. Grett and the others ran into this time was around the southeast, right?

"Yes, that's right"

"So I ran off to the seaside... maybe I ran off to the island."

... Kojima? No way is Kojima.

"Is that an island with a temple?

"Yeah, I get a massive escort request from the temple every few years. Sometimes I go all the way to that island in the Temple. When it comes to the possibility that a demon has escaped there... but there is nothing special about it but that temple..."

Come on, we're starting to get connected to temple related stories again.

I don't suppose Diabols' fate lies on that island, huh?

But if it's a testodo-like relationship, Irina and the others will notice.

You might not know this without going to that island once.

That's what Mr. Mars started talking about.

"I don't know, but what does that demon have to do with the temple? You ran into a shrine."

"I hope you can see that… the temple we visited before this was used to serve as a gateway to protect Severia from demons. An example demon was working to destroy it."

"Seriously, I never believed in a patron saint..."

"Was the story of the patron saint true"

Both Mr. Grett and Mr. Mars looked surprised to hear about the role of the temple.

That, surprise means these people didn't believe in the Patron Saint story?

Sisha also wondered, I started asking the two of them before I asked.

"Based on that bare gesture, don't you two believe in Master Testudo?

"No, that's not why... because party members have people from Severia. I've heard stories about patron saints from day to day. I just couldn't believe I really had that power."

"Once we're based in this town, we've never seen the power of a patron saint before."

Doesn't these two grow up in Severia because of the way they say there are people from Severia?

You're an adventurer from outside and based in this town.

I know it's been a long time since I've been based, but I still don't believe in patron saints.

Even when it comes to protection, it's not something visible, and I guess people from the outside don't believe that easily.

Is that why you asked me if I was from the Temple before this, and I was told I was happy or something?

Still, I'm not entirely sure what that statement is intended to mean yet... but it looks like something could have been expected.

When I was confused, Mr. Grett made a suggestion.

"Either way, maybe the demon thing is more problematic than I thought.... as long as you guys want, why don't you come with us to the place where we ran into the demons? I'll take care of the guide."

"Hey! How could you be with these guys!

"They make a lot of discoveries as soon as they come to Sevaria. Maybe you'll find something we don't know about?

Um, accompany the other adventurers? I just met him today. I'm a little nervous, but I'm curious about the place where Diabols was.

If you're with the people you actually encounter, you're sure, and this isn't a bad idea to be able to get along with a B-rank adventurer.

Considering what Mr. Mars said and did, there seems to be a problem... but let's find a way to work it out.

Once he focused on Sisha and took the confirmation, he shook his neck vertically and signaled that it was okay.

"Yes, we can offer it to you if you want."

My acceptance temporarily led me to throw a party with Mr. Grett and the others.

Party with B-rank adventurers other than Dius...... I hope everything ends well.
