- Peaceful days without any change of philosophy, thought to last long after the visit of the brave Ezel.

But the end came abruptly.

"I thought it was time for one of you to come, but you were first"

"Mm-hmm. Theodore's main purpose is to investigate dragon entanglement, not underground exploration. They're willing to prioritize investigations that don't have to dive underground."

Just before the end of one day's business hours.

I left everything to Erica and the others to prepare for the closing, and I was dedicated to dealing with Travis, who brought in an example case.

I understood the matter the moment this guy showed his face.

Exploration of an unknown realm deeper than Demon King's Castle has resumed.

"Of course I'm talking to him in advance. I asked Luke out first, but I had to rely on him first. He convinced me too."

"I hope so. So, what makes you have to rely on me? I don't want to neglect my business, so I can't follow you forever."

I shall make clear once again the conditions that I have been presenting for a long time.

I'm not officially a holiday adventurer out of my guild, but my activity policy focuses on my criteria as an arms dealer master.

The only reason I haven't left the guild in the first place is because it's more convenient on top of the deal for both me and the guild to stay connected, so it's not strange when we're going to officially leave.

No - I have an approximate prediction of when my title will change to former (...) impersonal (...) insured (...).

Knight Symphony. New Knights founded.

If the proceedings under way in the Wang capital come to an end and are officially announced, we will not be able to continue to be adventurers only in form.

"Above and beyond understanding. The only time I can count on you is when I need your [repair] skills."

"Don't bother. What the hell happened?

"Um, actually..."

Travis explained the problems faced by the underground exploration party as Garnett and Alexia, as well as Noir and the others, listened as they prepared to close.

- In fact, the exploration of the deep realm itself has been resumed for a few days now and is scheduled to be explored by a number of (yes) members, including Dustin the two-spearer and Roy the Beast Plain, who is due to arrive soon.

At the moment, the advance party that preceded it is in the process of investigating where and how the team should explore it.

"In the process, I discovered where the underground passage had collapsed and was completely buried. It is difficult to think of it as a natural collapse due to other parts of the condition. Eighty-nine, you must have artificially destroyed the passage and blocked it."

"Sure, that's blatantly suspicious. If it wasn't an accident, it's definitely a stumbling block. What do you read about a possible escape route for the Demon King's Army?

Fifty percent. I can assure you, if the underground corridor of Demon King's Castle is the main road, it's like a maze. "

Erica, who had stopped the work and was listening, raised her face to say why it was not definitive, so she decided to add a few minor supplements about the area.

"You're talking about the Demon King's Army losing to what (...) people (...) in the deep realm and running all the way to the 'Demon King's Castle realm', right? The collapse was a trail of action to prevent the chase, and we can't deny the possibility that he escaped on a completely different path this time."

"Uh... I see... adventurers have to think about all sorts of things..."

Erica nods firmly with a mixed look of admiration and convincing.

Working with the Demons in an underground dungeon is also different from an adventurer at work and the average person living off the dungeon on earth from a perspective when thinking about things.

It's not about which is better, it's simply about the difference.

"What I want you to do is [repair] the aisle. I hear the collapse is quite extensive. It would take a long time to get rid of the rubble properly, wouldn't it?

"You want me to get it back on track with my [restoration] all at once? That's why I'm convinced."

The reasons themselves were very convincing, but I still have a few things to check before accepting to participate.

"I'm guessing the advance party is well equipped."

"There is no end to greed, but most A-rank dungeons should be able to survive stably. I'm sure you can trust me as soon as the captain of the advance party is Dustin."

"If you don't think I've seen it lately. Wouldn't that be so easy for him?"

"I'm going to dive underground with you, and from this time on, you're going to join a line of brave Ethel..."

That's all I said, Travis cut the words and mumbled at first sight.

"... sorry for the delay in reporting. It might not have been nice for you to just be a brave man."

"Don't be weird. You don't look good. First of all, does it seem like a man so delicate that he hates all the brave men because of the Falcon thing?

"Mmmm...?

Brave men are not titles reserved for specific individuals.

For the peace of the king's people, those who are recognized as possessors of sufficient strength to fight the threat lurking in the dungeon are certified by the royal palace to give the title of brave man.

Falcon is only one active brave man with more than one presence, and each brave man moves independently of each other at each other's discretion.

In other words, the association between Falcon and Ezel does not exist other than the point that neither was certified by the Royal Palace.

"I've seen you face to face with Ezel the Brave several times in the first place, and I've heard you're thinking of joining the demon king's army in their pursuit. I thought we'd be working with either you or Theodore, so that's exactly what I expected."

"What, my hard work?"

This time it was a complete travesty of Travis, but caring about the troubles of others like ours is one of his strengths, and one of the reasons he is admired by a large number of young adventurers.

"I don't want to close the store, so it's the three of us, including me, who are following you, and I'm going to go around the store with the three of you on backup? Can I decide on my own breakdown of the two people besides me?

"I don't mind. We'll have enough combat personnel, so make up your mind."

"Copy that. Then one is Garnett as usual, and the other one is..."

I move only my neck and look back and see the girl hiding herself on the edge of the entrance and exit leading to the back of the store.

Are you going to keep an eye on me to deal with it properly, or are you just being embarrassed and unable to show your face?

Either way, my thoughts were so solidified.

"... Let's make it Layla. Me, Garnett and Leila. These three will follow you."
