Yomigaeri no Maou

The gateway to the headquarters of the Northern Adventurers' Union (Guild) was large, but it seems open and free to enter and exit.

In fact, people seem to come and go quite often, and it would be a hassle to open or close this place.

Moitz and Ivan go inside the HQ in the form of a lead.

The union of divergent adventurers (guild) officials bowed their heads and greeted each other with affection when they saw Ivan's face, but were tilting their necks when they saw the boy next to him.

I wonder who it is.

It's not like I don't feel the gaze that I said that about the Lulu's either, but they obviously find me to be an adventurer, and I don't seem particularly surprised that Ivan is attached.

Moitz doesn't feel like an adventurer, and he looks pretty young, and I guess he looks odd because he can't be called an adventurer.

"No, it's fresh. But it's easy."

Go in the back and smile around Ivan and Moitz getting to know each other less, such as union employees.

Ivan looked frightened,

"I'm not easy at all... whenever you meet someone you know, be mine to ask about Moitz's cheapness"

In fact, the majority of union officials who speak to Ivan say hello and there,

"So, where is Master Moitz?

He was asking.

Ivan was all kinds of cloudy, and then he could come, you know, and now he's stopping by, and he was deluded to say it.

Many cared about the presence or absence of escorts, and Ivan answered every time that he had been protected by an expert skilled enough to win a martial arts competition.

Well, you didn't lie.

In fact, there are some lululu around Moitz who won a fighting tournament, because if something hits him, they'll protect him.

"I'm sorry for the hard work, Ivan. But isn't it good once in a while? And, unexpectedly, I feel kind of strange that you're worried. I was wondering if they were saying something more like Mr. Ravah."

He's happy because he had a better reputation from the officials asking about Moitz than he thought.

Since Rava, who was at the Teram Nadia entrance, was pretty stupid about Moitz, he seemed to expect his rating to be more or less like that.

But the conversation between them and Ivan showed that the majority of HQ staff were genuinely worried about Moitz and wanted him to come back soon.

The officials won't even think they're talking in front of themselves, so they're serious.

"No... Rava admires Master Moitz too. I just don't know, that's... it's like Nori... you know..."

I am somewhat of a toothless Ivan because all the things I was saying have also been exposed to Moitz.

But Moitz also seems to know that.

"No, you'll see. I don't care. Mr. Rava, Ivan, do you originally call me rough, because I know you were rough among adventurers. Besides, I can't talk about people either."

I guess Moitz's inability to talk about people once said something about the past that he had a pretty sinister attitude toward Zoe when he was younger.

He glanced lightly at Zoe, smiling bitterly.

"Was it that bad?

When Lulu asks Zoë, Zoë says,

"I don't think it was that far. Somehow, it feels like a childhood rebellion... well, it would be embarrassing to look back as an adult. Isn't that what Iris never said to His Majesty?

Suddenly turned to water, Illis panicked a little, but shook his head.

"Yes, no, I don't..."

In fact, I never had a defiant attitude in the sense that Illis would say that to Lulu.

Rather, it would have been Bacchus, the real father, who had been disobeyed.

It is Bacchus' saying that they are physically sold the quarrel more than once.

Lulu mentions it.

"It wasn't against me, was it? But Bacchus..."

"My brother-in-law!

Zoe laughs at Iris, who began to panic.

"I see there was a time like that in the crowd in Illis, too. I was wondering if that didn't happen because she's a princess."

"That's not true...... and not that I was particularly defiant. Just saying I had to get rid of it with my fist because trying to get close to my uncle is what my father stood for..."

Lulu was often fluttering through the city as well as the castle during the Demon King's Era, and in that case, Illis came to see him.

Essentially, it was meant to be sneaky or once Lulu, but it was quite noticed and asked to shake my hand when I went out of the city because it was so obvious because of its magical behavior.

In that case, it was Illis who was coming straight away.

Sometimes I didn't come, but in that case, I guess Bacchus was holding me back.

Bacchus was the father of Illis, but at the same time he is Lulu's unwavering friend.

You must have been concerned that if Illis came to Lulu, who is enjoying the city with patience, he would be unable to clean it up.

He was also an extravagant and appropriate, yet unexpectedly caring person.

"As a result of my efforts for my friends, my real daughter eliminates my father with her fist... and Bacchus will suffer..."

That's how Zoe squeaks as she stares far away.

Iris turned a little red on the words,

"Exactly, now I can understand what your father would have thought and stopped me. But at the time, I was also a child... and I was wondering why I would stop..."

"Well, he's a young man."

Zoe nodded understanding.

"That's right. I just wanted to apologize if your father was still alive."

That's what Illis says.

Lulu went to Iris' remarks as if Bacchus were no longer there,

"... No, Bacchus, he's probably still alive..."

And groan.

And Iris heard it, and he opened his eyes.

"I did...... I remember. When I met him, I was going to knock him in one shot..."

and squeaks as he grips his fist all the time.

It seems that Bacchus' treatment did not change anything after thousands of years.

Well, that and this, you deserve it, and Lulu doesn't stop in particular, and follows the Moites.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

"Now, from here on out will be the section with the office of the head of the Northern Union (North Master)"

There was a door that looked heavy, and two watchmen and an ambush stood.

On the other side of that door, they have important facilities, such as the office of the head of the Northern Union (North Master), the reception room, and the location of the main body of the Magic Conducting Machine.

Security also seems to be strict in proportion to its importance, and guards are probably part of it.

The watch looks at Moitz and tilts his neck, but looks at Ivan's face and lifts his guard.

"Master Ivan. Are you home? I thought you were with Master Moitz...?

Ivan nods and answers the lookout question.

"Yeah, it is, but there's a lot going on. In the meantime, I came first. Can you let me in?

"Of course that is. Master Ivan has the authority to move on."

The watch nods and paves the way.

Then Moitz walks out to the door before Ivan does.

The lookout

"Hey, hey, you. Then you won't open that door."

I said hastily.

I don't know what that means. When Lulu tilts his neck and looks at Ivan,

"That door is set to go through only those authorized to go inside, so it won't open if anyone else goes through it. It's one of Dwarf's remaining magical guidance machines."

"Because after Dwarf's departure, how did the first guy get in here?

It was a question I thought I shouldn't be able to get in because I was refused.

Thought he might not know, but Ivan answered Lulu's question instantly.

"Hi, it looks like we were starting to recognize the first person who came here as someone with new authority if they were in a long abandoned state. So the first one tells me he's really into it."

If there is no longer a person to manage, does that mean that authority is being transferred to those who come later?

Left for a long time, though, that would be a problem for a very short period of time.

Because if you turn off all those who have authority, you will get valuable magic guidance machines and so on just waiting.

Lulu asks concerned.

"Left for a long time, how long?

"I thought it might not be advantageous in a hundred years..."

Well, if that's all it takes, maybe it's safe.

It is not a period that can never be crossed for long-lived species such as the Ancient race (elves), but it is nevertheless undoubtedly long.

I would say that it is too long for a period of waiting with deliberate effort.

"But I wonder why Dwarf is gone..."

Dwarves that disappeared more than a hundred years before people came here.

However, it does not seem that it was particularly scattered with human bones and the like, and it seems that they probably abandoned this place and moved somewhere else.

But from what I've seen around the world, they haven't been able to confirm what Dwarf looks like.

It was probably extinct after all.

While we're doing this, Moitz touches the door.

Recent technology can also make something like this authentication device, but I don't know if I would recognize Moitz as a Moitz today.

Except for the magic machine.

Dwarf technology was also quite high in ancient times.

Somewhat, I don't make devices that mistakenly identify people because they have changed their appearance.

"... eh, why...?

The watch of the door was flashing at the door that Moitz slowly and quietly opened at the same time as he touched it.

Ivan tells the lookout how calm he is.

"That, of course, is because this person has the authority to do so"

"No, but only those with more authority than the head of the Quartet, or their assistants, can open this door..."

"... you're right. I have no problem with this at all, so it's not particularly abnormal. Come on, Lord Lulu, Lord Illis, Lord Zoe. Let's go."

That's what I say, Ivan walks out.

He's not willing to give a detailed explanation to the lookout.

It seemed impossible to keep an eye on him or go into it when Ivan told me he had no particular problem.

Besides, if you ask, even if it were a matter in itself that the door opened, it would naturally be permissible for Ivan or Moitz to take the person who admitted it to the other side of this door, so it would be no problem for someone else to follow him more than Ivan would go with him.

That's why I told Ivan as if I had rushed to remind him of something, although it was a flashy watch.

"Hey, wait a minute! What I have to tell you…"

I guess I was totally out of it because of Ivan's sudden arrival.

He remembered that by shock.

The watch looks back and tells Ivan he stopped.

"When Moitz returned, he told me to contact him..."

"Well, who is it from?

When Ivan asked, the watch answered.

"Dear Adler… We are staying in the city now"

"Is there an Adler? I understand. So..."

And Ivan walks out.

The door closed automatically when a line left the door.

Then Lulu asks Ivan and Moitz.

"Do you know a guy named Adler?

Moitz replied to this.

"Yeah. My name is someone I know, and he's the head of the Western Union (West Master) of the Leonard Kingdom Adventurers Union (Guild). You're just like me."

"Heh..."

From Lulu and the others, he seems to hit the boss.

If such a person is in need of Moitz, we think we should take the inn somewhere today and leave, and ask him about it, Moitz said,

"No, we have accommodation in this building as far as the accommodation is concerned, so we were hoping you could use it. May I?

This is a thankful offer from the Lulu's, so I decide to take it.

Moitz continues.

"You should contact Adler right away... just fine, and I'd like you to stay with Lord Lulu..."

"Saying?

Moitz replied as Lulu tilted his neck wondering what was just right.

"Because Adler is the head of the Western Union (West Master). I'm going to learn more about the situation in the Lugung Trading Country, the Enchanted Empire, to which you are all headed. So let me introduce you."

The Lulu's, who thought this would be enough, decided to nod and have Moitz and Adler present at the table for discussion.
