“…… Nord, I’m taking Nolt home …… I’m going home. …… Then he’s going to ……”

“Hmm, he seems to have a bit of an ego, but I guess that’s about it. But I guess It’s good that this man’s daughter is married to the lord’s son.”

“What should we do now, Erekhim-sama? I think it’s time to implement our plan.”

“Hmmm …… Well, maybe we should kidnap the lord’s daughter and take control of the town, let’s show the Lord Founder that we are different from Retzel.”

“So what about the monster?”

“Gather them up. We can unleash goblins and slimes on the town to cause chaos. And don’t forget to send some of our unidentified followers into town to check on them.”

“Yes.”

“Now then …… I can see the road to becoming an executive, kuku, I can imagine the frustration on Retzel’s face. Now let’s get out of town.”

◆   ◇   ◆

“Oh, you’re done with the request, Ryuuze?”

“It’s rare to see Tigre-sensei in the guild.”

“Hello, Tigre-sensei.”

When Ryuuze and Naru walked through the guild’s door, Tigre, who was at the counter, welcomed them with a raised hand, and Naru, who was standing behind him, bowed. As they approached, Hauzen, the guild master behind the counter, opened his mouth.

“Welcome back, both of you. By the looks of it, it looks like you’ve finished the request.”

“Of course! We’ve got a couple of mud snakes and a giant bee on the back of the carriage out front, so check them out.”

“All right. You’re already the ace of the guild, aren’t you?”

Gibson, the sub-master, said and went to the front. As Ryuuze rubbed his cheeks in embarrassment, Hauzen continued.

“Did you know that people who call themselves ‘Gospel’s Descent’ have been volunteering in town recently?”

“Well, they’re the ones who clean the square and stuff, right?”

“The ones in the robes that I see on the way home, right? I know them.”

Naru and Ryuuze replied, Hauzen and Tigre nodded, and Tigre continued.

“It’s them. And according to the information provided by Roen-san, they are the ones who are based in Berias Kingdom. And, Ryuuze, you have something to do with it.”

“What? I don’t know any of those guys ……”

Ryuuze frowns in confusion. But then Tigre’s next words changed his complexion.

“It seems that Retzel, the doctor who conspired with your father to torment Lars and the others, was also from the Gospel’s Descent.”

“W-What did you say!?”

“And it seems that they’re also mixed up in Oriola and Glasco territories.”

“What!? T-Then, they’re also here for the Lord’s position ……?”

When Naru raises an astonishing voice, Hauzen laughs and tells Naru.

“Ha-ha-ha, well, listen to this and be surprised. In both territories, Lars was present and solved the case. The ringleader has been sent to Reflexion.”

“Seriously …… that guy is awesome as always …… But where did Uncle Roen get that information?”

“He said he came back the other day to ask Urka for help with a request.”

“If he came back, it would be nice if he called out.”

When Ryuuze swears,

“According to Urka, “There wasn’t much time”. That’s why he couldn’t see anyone but Urka.”

“I knew about it because I heard that Lars took Aina to the capital when Tilia went to visit. It was hard to appease Tilia at that time ……”

The two of them chuckle as they lowered their shoulders, but Tigre quickly returns to the conversation with a straight face.

“Well, this is why I believe that the Gospel’s Descent must have been aimed at this territory. This is a request from Roen-san, to check their movements. Also, I heard that Roen-san is planning to tell them to leave, and I’ve been assigned to escort them.”

“Well, we can’t just leave them there if they’re with that fucking doctor. What do you want us to do?”

Ryuuze asks Hauzen, leaning back in his chair and folding his hands behind his head.

“In the meantime, everyone in the guild should keep a close eye on the Gospel’s people. We can’t send out a warning, so please inform your acquaintances and friends. If we spread the word too much, they’ll be wary.”

“All right. I guess we’d better tell Urka-kun and Luciel-chan, who might know about it.”

“Right. I’ll drop by on my way home then! I’d like to ask Urka about Lars, too.”

When Ryuuze replied to Naru with a smile, Gibson had just returned. Gibson went to the reception desk, got some money, and then called Ryuuze and the others.

“I’m sorry to keep you waiting, but I’ve finished my assessment. Three thousand two hundred beryls each.”

“Oh, thank you! I guess I’ll buy some fish today. I want to feed my father.”

“We’re going to Jack-kun’s place then. All right, Teacher and Master, our answer to that matter is a yes.”

“I’ll leave it to you. The reward will be paid by Roen-san, so I think it will be a lump sum. But you can still live your life as normal!”

At Hauzen’s words, Ryuuze raised his hand without looking back, and Naru bowed while slapping Ryuuze’s butt and left the guild.

After walking for a while, Ryuuze muttered to no one in particular.

“Gospel’s Descent, huh ……”

“Ryuuze, don’t worry about it too much, okay? I know about the thing with your father, but ……”

“…… Well, I won’t be reckless. But, at that time, I left it all to Lars, so if he comes at me with bad intentions, I won’t spare him. That’s what I’m prepared to do.”

“That’s fine, but if there’s something wrong, you can talk to me about it, okay? I’m your p-partner, you know.”

“Yeah, of course! We’re friends, after all.”

“Friends ……”

Naru’s eyes are fixed on Ryuuze, and her mouth is agape. What does this guy think of me? She thinks. She’s approaching him, but she doesn’t know if he’s insensitive or teasing her, and Naru walks next to him with her cheeks inflated.

As they approached the fork in the road, there was a figure calling out to them.

“Ah, Ryuuze and Naru-chan! You’re going home now?”

“What? Oh, hello, Luciela-san.”

When greeted, Luciela smiled and approached the two of them to speak. 

“We’re in the same town, but I’m surprised we don’t meet much. How about it, If you have time, why don’t you drop by for a visit? I’ll even offer you some tea.”

Well, today is the start of a new chapter! Please look forward to the activities of the sub-characters, okay?

Thank you for reading!

[Afterword Theater]

“Now, the author’s specialty sub-characters chapter!”
