Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga

“I heard that my colleagues have seen it in person. I heard that the enemy’s throat is dropped in an instant even when the sword wants to shine. I praised it until my mouth was dry, saying it was great.”

“As you proceed with this quest, you will see the power of rumors. Expectations are high.”

At first, I was sorry that these people called me a mad dog, so I wondered if they were praising me a little, but no matter how I look at it, the reaction seems to be sincere.

I was so embarrassed that I wanted to ask what he was talking about, but in this situation, it was a very out of shape question, so I decided to just skip it.

A lightsaber is better than a mad dog, but I can’t get rid of the idea that it’s a very strange tinnitus. I feel like my whole face is on fire if you express how you swing your sword so quickly.

In this situation with such a nonsensical sentiment, ‘Why am I the only one who doesn’t know my tinnitus?’ Unlike me, who was revisiting the question, Yekatrina, who did not need to replay the question, looked at me with curious eyes and asked a question.

“How on earth do you make the sword shine?”

“It must have been reflected in the light and shined.”

“Ah, is it a trade secret? It’s nothing special then.”

Ekaterina, who had just expressed her sincere impressions, but had misunderstood something on her own, withdrew her body as if regretting it.

okay. In the first place, I thought this would be better than struggling to explain something I didn’t know, so I decided to just look at Engrim.

“The reason why I picked you all is simple. Since this is a confidential quest, even if you suddenly gather and move, less attention is drawn, and it is the result of recruiting people who have the ability to meet the request. Not only me, but the main guild members It’s a kind of dream team made by gathering opinions, so I don’t think there’s any need to worry about completing the request.”

“If you’re not worried about the party itself, then you’re worried about something else, right?”

As Gin pointed out the point, Engrim responded with a nod.

“Yes. Just one concern. Confidentiality.”

“Honestly, we’re not talking about anything, aren’t we overly concerned, guild leader?”

Unlike the others who sympathized with the laughing Gaendal, I felt like I knew why Engrim had to consider me and Cheryl as the right person after the thief quest and tried to recruit them. To be honest, at this level, even without me, I would tear up most of the requests.

“I’m not worried about leaking confidential information between us.”

All eyes except for Engrim were focused on me. It would be embarrassing to point out something wrong, but judging from Engrim’s reaction, that doesn’t seem to be the case.

“I had to kill more people than monsters. I was wary of leaving survivors at that time.”

“……you’re right.”

“No. Wait a minute. But it’s a request from the guild leader, so I’m not going to doubt it! You’re dealing with criminals, right?”

“Of course. The demon worshipers are the target.”

Engrim spoke very casually, but the content was by no means light. I don’t know what others might do, but for me, one of the most important things I’ve ever experienced in my life came out of nowhere.

demon worshiper.

In the years of war with the Demon King’s army, all that meant was treason. They had a record of selling out the country in collusion with the actual demon army or demon tribe, so if there was evidence, it was a sense of immediate disposition.

But that kind of thing was good.

“Did you actually witness the demons?”

For the first time in seven years, I didn’t know that I might meet the demon tribe in person.

“We are only guessing that the demons related to the demon army are related to the situation.”

“Even so, I don’t think it’s something that needs to be beaten in secret like this? Wouldn’t it be better to call the military?”

Ekaterina’s argument is valid. And it’s very common sense. It’s something that would be considered treason in the first place, but the adventurer couldn’t think of a reason to secretly deal with it.

However, I could easily guess that this part was in a similar context to beating the demon king as a hero.

“Due to the long war, the mere fact that there are demons entangled inside is having a bad effect on public sentiment. This work was commissioned by the royal family.”

assassination.

Of course, it was not an assassination in the form of killing someone by itself without anyone knowing, but an assassination in the sense that it was attacked in an instant and quickly eliminated without a chance to come out externally.

It would have been an assassination if it hadn’t been discovered since ancient times.

“The military is obviously showing off.”

“Somehow, it felt like the balance of the members was focused on the assault…”

Surprisingly, no one was surprised by the fact that the royal family received a direct request. The war, which has been going on for a long time enough to understand with just the explanation of ‘popular sentiment’, was eating away at the country.

In fact, I think it’s a very fine country for maintaining the war for close to 7 years, but it won’t be like that for those who live normally.

“If there is a demon. What should I do if I catch him?”

Gin asks what I want to ask. Of course, as soon as I catch it, I want to steal all the information the demon knows, but…

“You should try to dig up information, but if it fails, you must kill it without regret.”

“In case of success?”

“It kills as well.”

It’s a merciless story, but since the opponent is a demon, I only felt that it was valid. It’s not that you have to kill them unconditionally because they’re enemies of some state, it’s because the demons are that strong.

The demons are a race composed of thorough power logic. Unlike humans, the stronger they are, the more important they are, and the stronger they are, the more dangerous they are assigned. There is no concept of throwaway cards.

die or succeed. It was an ignorant method, but they have been wagering war on the kingdom for 7 years.

The reason why such guys are making repairs in the middle of the kingdom is because they have a grounded confidence that they can overcome any situation alone. Since we have no idea what he’s doing, be careful based on that premise, and if we’re not careful, one of us’s brains will crack.

Of course, even so, as long as they did not participate in the war itself, they were at a loss by the standards of the demons. All of the demons who are treated as real strongmen will be sent to the battlefield, escort the demon king, or stir up the frontlines with guerrilla tactics.

That said… it means that this incident could be an unexpected opportunity for me.

“Actually, I’m a person who wants to ask a lot of questions to the demons, but if a personal opportunity arises, can I use some discretion under the assumption that it won’t harm the party?”

As I lightly raised my hand and let go of the rhyme, people’s eyes focused on me.

“Are you going to talk to the demons?”

“Well, if threat is a conversation, then it’s a conversation, right? Even looking at this, I’ve studied a lot to find out about the demons. Unless there are others who are confident in extracting information from the demons, I’d like to have that opportunity conceded.”

After answering Gaendal’s question naturally, Engrim asked a question this time, unable to hide his doubts.

“I can’t believe that you studied about demons, but honestly, it’s a rare case. Is there a reason?”

If you know the enemy and know me, you said that you will never fight, so I studied. There could be no other reason. However, it was understandable that Engrim would ask such a question as if it were natural.

This is because the kingdom is in the midst of a very sluggish effort to discover something new by obtaining information about them while fighting against the demons. It is not uncommon to fight a war without much research as if fighting a human being.

However, if there is no written information about the demons, then it is not. Even before the war, you can know that many scholars have been conducting research, verifying, and consistently producing results to understand the ecology of the demon tribe.

There are a lot of cases where I can’t understand why they leave such information alone and often do incomprehensible nonsense… but there are no specific points. No matter how hard he speaks, he’s just a green-level adventurer who doesn’t even get a seed right now, so who will listen? Unfortunately, the best I could do was to focus on self-study.

Thanks to that, I know more about demons than most people.

And in this situation, I decided to talk about my knowledge and reaction because I could be suspicious of my knowledge and reaction.

“Because I’m the only survivor of the first raid on the outskirts of Ogwen seven years ago. I’m studying hard because I’m trying to get revenge.”

“… Huh.”

“Wow. God. Really?”

“I heard that no one survived…”

While receiving a look of astonishment that could only be expressed as a matter of course, he gave more strength to the gaze he threw at Engrim to seek consent, acting as if he did not care about the reaction around him.

For some reason, Engrim, more surprised than the others, opened his mouth after thinking for a long time.

“What are you trying to figure out?”

“It depends on what he knows. If you’re asking out of personal interest, of course I’d like to find out who the commander was who raided our village.”

If an opportunity had been created by coincidences up to this point, perhaps this time, I might actually know at least the name of the enemy.

That fact alone makes my heart race.
