Did I just say something strange?

When I thought about it carefully, I was confused because I had never heard anything particularly strange.

‘The only thing that has some possibility is that I rely on it a lot? Was that a strange sound that made you feel embarrassed?’

I didn’t think this would sound strange, but seeing him blush and look embarrassed like that made me think I was wrong.

“uh… “I’m sorry if you were embarrassed?”

“There’s nothing to apologize for. I’m just saying that, I didn’t mean to criticize you. If you have the will, you will, right! It’s not difficult at all for you and me. “Rely on it as much as you want!”

The commander came closer and tapped my shoulder firmly.

It seemed like he was so excited that he couldn’t control his strength because he heard a popping sound and felt a tingling sensation.

‘The reaction seems strange…’

I couldn’t pinpoint what was strange.

“You will have to go out into the world someday, but if you still want to hide, you should do so. I will protect you until then!”

Isn’t it a good thing that he said he would protect me anyway?

I nodded and gratefully accepted her favor.

⁕ ⁕ ⁕

“It’s a shame.”

Erintina was busy.

greatly.

‘Actually, it’s because of me. ‘Because you’re busy doing what I told you to do.’

She didn’t show up on the battlefield even while solving monster waves because she was so passionate about the task I entrusted her with.

He came to tell me about his achievements so far and was shocked to hear that he was staying next to the commander’s barracks.

I thought it wouldn’t work if I didn’t explain it, so I explained it step by step, and Erintina showed anger at Sakalan’s actions.

“It’s not something any sane person would do.”

“If it weren’t for you, the commander would have been left helpless, right? You also solved the monster wave. “If the monster wave had been going on for a while, the damage would have been enormous.”

What if Sakalan did something like this while blocking a monster wave?

There would have been enormous casualties.

Sakalan has committed something that can never be forgiven.

“You did something big. “Even if I wanted to help, there was nothing I could do.”

Erintina touched her forehead, remembering what would have happened to the Commander if it weren’t for me.

“It doesn’t matter anymore. “Because it was completely resolved.”

“Ahaha! I know. You completely solved it. We finished the monster wave on time, and they filled in the items for us. How absurd would that be? “When I think about that, I feel a little better.”

The military’s warehouses are full of supplies, and the monster wave is completely over.

The monsters that were wandering around were cleaned up as the soldiers worked hard to kill them.

Sakalan’s move was quite painful, but because of me, the damage was close to 0.

“You wouldn’t be the kind of person who would just suffer like this, so why aren’t you doing anything?”

“Of course I should. “You’re probably getting ready right now.”

“You don’t know the details of what you are preparing, do you?”

“huh. “I heard you didn’t teach me?”

So I had no choice but to watch Commander Thalia’s actions.

I don’t know how they will deal with it, but since their attack was fatal, I thought they would return it back intact.

“Is it okay if I give the commander a little help?”

“Help? how?”

“They must have burned down the factory and moved all the stuff inside.”

“Probably so. “It would have been a waste of money.”

When Sakalan burned down the factory, he would not have been able to burn all the items inside.

If you don’t want to create any evidence, it’s better to burn it all, but I would have ignored that to reduce the damage.

“Wouldn’t it be easier to catch them if we knew where that warehouse was?”

“I guess so. “The items themselves will serve as evidence.”

There is no need to try to prove that the fire at the production plant was intentional on their part.

The fact that the item was set aside would itself be evidence.

“If we say we intentionally didn’t release items from the warehouse in order to collude and raise prices, wouldn’t that be considered treason? “If the front line collapses, the country is in danger.”

“Wow, it’s pretty scary when you think about it that way. “Isn’t everything going to fly away?”

An eerie smile appears on Erintina’s beautiful face.

“Probably so.”

“They probably don’t know about it, so they probably hid it well to avoid getting caught. Can you find it?”

“I can. “There is a spirit.”

There is nothing better than a spirit to chase someone down and get information.

Because it is invisible, any secret can be discovered.

There was something I could do for Erintina, who showed confidence for a reason.

“Then before that, let’s strengthen it.”

“huh? enforce?”

“uh.”

I can’t guarantee weapon enhancements, but I was able to strengthen characters.

We were in a situation where we were overflowing with money as we were supplying a huge amount of goods to the military.

Although I received about half as a by-product from Monster Wave and half in cash, the amount was so enormous that I ended up receiving a price that made me laugh at the amount of money I had.

‘Since you’ve been supplying goods to the military for decades like this, is it natural for you to become arrogant?’

Although that greed would destroy him, the money itself was very sweet.

It’s so sweet that it makes your tongue tingle.

Since I didn’t want to give this sweet treat back to someone else, I decided to help Erintina to make sure it was mine.

＊ ＊ ＊

Dwen glared at the assassin with a pale complexion.

“What is this?”

“This is the payment for the request I received.”

“Why are you giving this back? “If you received money, shouldn’t you just pay for it?”

After confirming that the man had no intention of leaving the barracks, Dwen admitted that it would be difficult to get his men to deal with it.

Because the location was different, it was felt that more expert help was needed.

Since the work was urgent, I went to the industry’s leading assassin guild and submitted a request.

It cost a huge amount of money, but it didn’t matter as long as the man could be dealt with quickly.

“The conclusion was made that the request was impossible. That’s why we’re returning the money.”

“Why is the request impossible?”

“I thought it was possible, but the man’s position changed. “The place that has changed is a place we cannot access.”

“If it’s difficult to approach, you just have to lure it in!”

If they give up on the request, it will be very difficult.

“Commander Thalia is actively protecting the man. “Before receiving the request, I told you that I would not touch anyone who has the protection of a powerful person.”

“So, Commander Thalia is protecting that man?”

“Then you won’t do it? “That man was giving away all of the military’s belongings?”

“… … .”

The assassins also seemed to have separately investigated the target of the request.

Dewen spoke urgently because he could not accept the result like this.

“I will pay you three times more than now.”

“Use that money to hire someone else. We will take our hands off it.”

“Isn’t this place the best!! How dare you roll your tail without even trying. Don’t you have any pride?”

“It’s not that the request won’t succeed. “If Commander Thalia were to retaliate after our success, the loss our guild would have to bear would be too great.”

When it comes to assassinations, this is a place that boasts overwhelming skills.

Even if you leave it to someone else, word will spread and no one will take it.

“Isn’t it enough to succeed in the request and live alone for a while? “I think it’s worth that amount.”

In the first place, the request fee was an amount that was absolutely not surprising.

They said they would give you 3 times more, so it wouldn’t be a loss if you closed the guild for a while, hid, and started again.

“There are things that are possible even if you give hundreds of millions of dollars, and there are things that are impossible. Commander Thalia will never leave alone those who offend her. Once you start pursuing something, you are the type of person who sees the results until the end. “We have no intention of fighting with her.”

“Commander Thalia will soon fall!”

“You mean it’s collapsing?”

“We have a plan. If we eliminate that man, Commander Thalia will eventually fall. So there is absolutely no need to be afraid of the aftermath.”

I wasn’t going to say this, but I couldn’t help it.

Aren’t you saying you can’t accept the request because you’re afraid of Commander Thalia?

The guild would also be interested if they knew that she would be dealt with soon.

“Is that possible?”

“it’s possible. No, it will be soon.”

“well. “Anyway, we’ll take our hands off it.”

Sigh-

The assassin put down the bag containing the money and disappeared in an instant.

“no! Now, wait! What are we going to do if it goes away like this?! Come back!! “Come back!!”

Even though he gave valuable information to the assassin, he ran away as if there was no problem, and Dwen was at a loss as to the overwhelming sense of betrayal.

Dwen threw the bag of money against the wall in frustration.

Money wasn’t important right now.

If you don’t kill that man, you will lose a ridiculous amount of money.

As the master said, this is something that will shake Sakalan.

“What do we do?”

Dwen bit his nails out of nervousness.

Now that the situation is like this, you may have to take action yourself.

‘It’s okay to leave it to someone else.’

Who would have thought that the day would come when they would be refused even if they offered to give money?

It is shameful to even tell the owner about this situation.

‘I have to kill that man somehow so that Sakalan can live!’

Weakness!

“Okay, let’s find the weak point and somehow drag it outside.”

If it’s inside the barracks and you can’t kill it, shouldn’t you just drag it outside?

In that case, there was no need to hire an assassin.

“joy! Incompetent guys. I can’t believe I can’t even do this much. “It’s funny that we are number one in the industry.”

It makes no sense for people to have no weaknesses.

If we investigate closely, there will definitely be a way to get him out.

The moment Dwen was about to make another plan.

Suddenly-!

“There it is! Catch it!”

“W-what?! What is this?! Do you know who I am… “Wow!”

“It’s about catching traitors. “Do not take mercy into your hands!”

“Aaaah!”

Knights and soldiers came to where Dwen was.

You should have already felt strange that the assassin left the scene in such a hurry.

However, Dwen, who was only thinking about killing the man, did not notice the strange omen.

“Why, why are you doing this?! “What did I do wrong?”

“It’s shameless. You didn’t do anything wrong? How dare you commit treason?”

“Ba, ba, ba, treason!! Oh, that doesn’t make sense. “It’s unfair!”

Who on earth brought the absurd charge of treason upon themselves?

He is a person who is loyal to the imperial family.

The absurd charge of treason could not be acknowledged.
