The Association Building should be a building filled with many people and a room filled with crowds, but just like in the previous city building, the Association building in this city feels quiet and even looks almost empty. There weren't many people here to the extent that the Junta could count all the people who were here with one hand, perhaps if some Association employees were involved in the Junta's calculations, he said, then the Junta will at least use his 2 hands.
After the events of yesterday night seeing the mysterious entourage, Junta actually can't sleep quietly, even though Junta's eyes are closed and his body is lying on the bed with Kou, but somehow Junta felt unable to sleep and finally chose to focus on the surrounding conditions to monitor the situation. Indeed, Kou had installed some protective magic of his, but still Junta felt to be vigilant because their enemy this time was The Fingers. Fortunately, nothing happened all night, and Junta was able to sleep quietly even for a while.
“Welcome to the Association, can I help you?”
“Zonya, class 5, I want to give this to the Association”
The zoo placed a medium-sized box on the reception desk.
“Oh, Zonya huh? The Association gave this to you, and of course I will give this to the Association”
The receptionist put two envelopes on the table in front of her while picking up the box placed by Zonya.
“Thank you, by the way did you know anything about the entourage that came at night in this city?”
“Ah, the entourage, the entourage did appear a while ago, I have already written a report about this and given it to the Association, but the Association still has not answered until now”
“What might this have to do with The Fingers?”
”Actually I was hoping that the guess was wrong, but I also thought like that, The Association lately looks very busy so it feels like it will take longer to investigate this matter, please be careful while in this city Zonya”
“As it seems, more or less I understand the situation, well thank you for giving me this”
“Sure, I just did my duty”
After replying to the receptionist with a smile, Zonya went with Junta and the others to a table that was a little away from the reception desk, which was a little far away from the reception desk, the table is located in the corner of this large room and is one of the largest tables here.
“Two envelopes? Are there 2 commands?”
Kou spoke like that while sitting next to his sister.
“No, this red envelope is a reprimand, and this brown envelope that contains the next command”
“Te-Regulation?!”
“About yesterday yes, Shell inn, if you look around again, we did not complete the Association order in full time it”
“I knew I would get a reprimand like this, but I didn't expect it to be this fast”
Zonya replied to Junta while opening the brown envelope on her right hand.
“You don't want to open that red envelope Zonya?”
“No Kou, maybe I will open it later, let's see what the Association commands now”
Unlike the previous envelope, this time the envelope only contained 1 paper, although the writing remained like an ant, Junta had considered this as an improvement. It is better to read 1 small paper than to have to read 3 small papers.
Zonya's expression seemed focused as she read the paper in her hand and Junta was not at all surprised, either, the writing on the paper is indeed small and you can miss an information if you do not read the paper with focus, The Zonya needed a little time to read the entire contents of the paper before finally her Zonya expression turned a little relaxed.
“So apparently”
It was unexpected that Zonya was fast enough in reading that paper, if it was a Junta, then it would probably take more time than the Zonya was using right now.
“You're really used to this huh Zonya”
“So, what's the matter this time?”
“Simply put the Association is also suspicious of the entourage that we saw last night, and the Association has found where the troupe stops in this city”
“And we have to destroy it?”
“No Kou, we have to take something from inside that building and give it to the Association”
“Oh, something?”
“There are no clear instructions on this paper, there is only a layout plan of the contents of that building and instructions to take whatever is in this room”
His zone said as he flipped the paper he was holding and placed it on the table. And behind the page filled with small writing it seems there is an image that seems to be the layout of the room of a building.
“Seeing from this floor plan, it looks like this is a big building, but I don't see it around here?”
“That's because this building is a little away from here Kou, I know the area even though I never saw the building”
“So? Will we not sleep tonight?”
“No Junta, we will do it now, this time, this afternoon”
“E-Eh?! A-Are you sure Zonya?!”
“You already know for yourself how the condition of this city at night, too quiet even to the point that it seems like any small sound that exists will be heard all over the city”
“I understand your reasons Zonya, but isn't doing it during the day like this too risky?”
“Indefects at risk Junta, but I think doing it at night is much riskier”
“If it is rethought, indeed Zonya has a point, if we make a sound at night while doing this task, then it is certain that we will be caught definitely increase”
After saying that, Junta was seen thinking for a moment.
“Alright, then we should hurry and finish it before afternoons”
Kou looked at his older brother first before finally raising both of his hands like a person who did not know what to do while saying.
“If my brother agrees then there is nothing I need to ask”
”E-Eh?! Ki-we'll do it?!”
“Good, we will return to the inn, take our train and go to our destination”
- The building referred to by Zonya was apparently located a little in the middle of the city\, the building stood together with the other large buildings that were there\, he said\, the building consists of 3 floors and dark red\, and also the building there are many windows that finally slightly distinguish the building with other buildings around it.
After exiting a rather narrow alley, Zonya stopped her carriage beside a white building and turned around and said.
”Kou, Junta, you come with me, Alicia, can you take care of this train? We'll do this quickly”
“Se-Leave it to me!”
After hearing Alicia's response, Zonya got off the train along with Junta and her sister, then walked back into the alley they had just been through.
“So, how is the plan?”
“Association has described us the floor plan of the layout of the room in the building, the plan is that me and you will go inside, while Kou will guard outside”
Zonya said that while stocking the seeds of plants in the narrow streets they passed.
“What's just that?”
“Only that, I'll explain it when we're in, actually it's a pretty simple mission, thanks for the plan the Association drew, so you don't have to think too much about this”
After he finished spreading the seeds of the plants he held to all corners of the narrow road, Zonya stood right behind the building that was their target this time, this time, The Zonya peeked inside through the window that was there and the first thing the Zonya saw was a wall, a wall, then on the left and right there was only a narrow passageway that only 1 person seemed to pass through. Since there were no guards visible so far, so Zonya decided to damage the window with her magic and open it.
“Junta, follow me”
Right after saying that, Zonya quickly jumped inside, of course the Junta followed behind.
Once inside, Zonya looked back to her right and left to make sure that, at the right end of this narrow hallway, there was a dark brown door, and at the left end was also a dark brown door, if Zonya remembered it again, both doors were the target of the room that the Association ordered to take whatever was inside there, he said, there's just one problem.
The hallway on the right and left of the Zonya is indeed just a straight empty hallway, but along the passageway there were at least 3 turns that Zonya had to worry about before she walked towards the door that was at the end of this passage, one of those turns being close to her current position of Zonya, so Zonya decided to take a little peek at what was behind that turn.
Trying to sneak a peek, Zonya saw a large room with many guards passing by there, if Zonya recalled the picture of the plan the Association had given her, she said, it should have been a room for guests or something, the Association warned that there were a lot of guards in the room, but Zonya didn't know that the guards would be this many.
After knowing what to do, Zonya went back to looking for the seed bag inside her robe, then gave some of the seeds she took from inside the bag to Junta.
“Throw these seeds in the direction of that turn before you walk past it”
“Isn't this a plant seed you scattered in the alley earlier?”
“Yes, this is my illusion magic, I don't think you forgot right?”
Junta tries to remember about Zonya's illusion magic, if Junta does not remember wrong, he once survived the pursuit of one of the members of The Fingers thanks to this Zonya magic.
“Alright, I understand, then?”
”Do you see the door at the end of this hallway? Go inside, take whatever's in there, then bring it here, we'll go out while carrying whatever we take”
”Are you going to the door that is there?”
“To be precise, we will split up so that this mission is quickly completed, you go that way, and I go this way”
Upon hearing the Junta's response, Zonya immediately rushed towards the door on the left of the passage, and Junta also immediately moved his feet slowly towards the door on the right of the passage.
Junta threw the seeds he got from his Zonya at the first turn he met, so far no problem, having finished throwing the seeds of plants belonging to Zonya, he said, The junta walked past that turn and instantly understood why Zonya was using illusion magic in this mission.
The guards inside this building seemed to be numerous, but the Junta did not understand why there was not a single guard standing guard in this hallway, either, indeed this passageway looked narrow but wouldn't it be better to be guarded by at least 1 guard than nothing?
While thinking about this oddity, the Junta had already reached the second turn, this time the Junta heard the sound of footsteps approaching towards it, spontaneously of course the Junta remained motionless and focused on listening.
The sound of footsteps was getting closer and closer, for the worst possible time, the Junta was already preparing.
”Hey, come here and let's play again!”
”You look relaxed, we're on an important mission of keeping this place”
“Calm down, who wants to attack this building during the day like this, besides anyone who walks in that hallway can we see from here, no need to walk to sana”
“You know, maybe you should eliminate your overly relaxed nature it”
As he spoke, the sound of footsteps could be heard away from the position of the Junta, quickly the Junta tossed the seeds of the plant he was holding and immediately went through the turn.
Arriving at the third turn, the Junta focuses on listening to its surroundings, ensuring no approaching guards or other dangerous occurrences.
This time it was not the sound of footsteps heard, but the voice of the person who was chatting, the voice sounded close enough for the Junta so the Junta wanted to ascertain the position of the voice in order to decide on its next course of action. But Junta felt it was too risky, so Junta decided to throw the seeds he was holding and quickly moved past the turn.
Right after the Junta had walked through the turn, the sound of footsteps approaching could be heard, spontaneously the Junta immediately moved quickly towards the door at the end and opened it and went inside.
Once inside, the Junta peeked out through the keyhole that was on that door.
“What is this? Plant seeds?”
“How can there be a seed here?”
Oh shit
After one of the people there asked, a guard appeared from behind the third turn that the Junta had just passed.
”Jendela.. Open?”
“Didn't I tell you to close the window?”
One of the guards showed up again.
“But I've closed it, or maybe I forgot?”
”For someone who likes to forget what he did a few minutes ago, I wonder how you became the keeper of”
After one of the guards said that, he closed the window that had been opened by Zonya then walked towards the nearest turn while scolding his friend and finally disappeared from Junta's sight after turning.
If only this door was locked, then surely the Junta would be found out, fortunately somehow this door was not locked so the Junta could go inside and hide, he said, fortunately also Zonya has been inside the door that is at the end of there somehow since when.
After believing that things were safe, Junta turned around and saw that there were a lot of wooden boxes of various sizes in the room, the room was actually not too big, similar to a small warehouse according to Junta. And the contents of the room were black wooden boxes and various wooden barrels of various sizes, there was nothing as far as the eyes of the Junta saw this room other than the 2 types of objects.
Zonya did say to take whatever was inside here, but now Junta was confused which one to take, Junta felt that taking 1 keg and 1 box was a safe choice, but it was a pity that it would be a troublesome choice since the Junta had to carry a lot of stuff.
Because the Junta did not know when a guard I came again, so Junta decided to take 1 medium-sized wooden barrel that was not far from the door of the room, before he lifted the barrel, which was not the case, The junta opened the door behind him and walked towards the last turn he passed, then threw the last seed of the plant he held.
After that Junta went back into the room and took the barrel that was there, when Junta lifted the barrel, it was unexpected that the barrel turned out to be a little heavy, as it was, The junta slightly shook the barrel to guess what it contained, but still the Junta could not guess what the contents of the barrel were because the sound produced according to the Junta was a little strange.
Walking quickly but remaining silent, Junta walked through the turns that he passed before until he finally reached the starting point he entered this building.
”Didn't you bring an item that's too big?”
His zone spoke softly while walking towards the Junta.
“I don't know what to take, there are so many kegs and boxes in sana”
“Only that? Wooden kegs and Boxes?”
“Is your place not like that?”
“Too many items to the extent that I don't remember it, just talk later, I don't want the guard to see us”
Zonya said that while opening a window that had been closed by one of the guards.
After the window opened, Kou who was outside seemed to understand what he had to do, so he helped Zonya get the items out.
As Zonya had said at the beginning, the barrel carried by Junta seemed to be a little too big indeed, Zonya and Kou had a little trouble getting the barrel out through the window, though, but in the end the barrel can come out even with a little coercion.
After finishing taking out all the items brought, Zonya jumped out first before the Junta finally caught up. Of course, before jumping out, Junta re-examined the room he had come to, and luckily Junta had not forgotten to close the door before he left the room, likewise with the room that Zonya had been to, all the doors were closed so Junta felt this was safe.
After being outside, Zonya closed her window and lifted the items she had taken out, of course Kou brought some so that they could quickly get out of here, they slightly ran down the narrow path before finally being able to get out of the alley and quickly headed for Zonya's train that was being guarded by Alicia.
Fortunately in the streets of this deserted city, some people who walked on the streets were also carrying large items such as barrels or wooden boxes, so Junta, so that, Zonya or Kou does not look suspicious because they carry a lot of stuff while running around.
After putting all the items brought into the carriage, Zonya immediately ran to the coachman's seat and quickly moved the carriage away from there.
“Is there anything strange going on during our time away Alicia?”
”Ti-No”
“Good, then we will go to the Association building to deliver these items, then after that we go directly to the next destination city”
“By the way about the goods, what is the contents of the goods you carry this Zonya?”
Kou said like that while shaking the wooden box that Zonya had brought.
“I don't know, I can't guess the contents and don't open, we've finished our task here, the rest leave it to the Association”
“This doesn't sound like it contains weapon”
”Perhaps the contents are something like tools or something else Kou, I have little doubt that the contents of the box and barrel that we carry contain weapon”
A short while after the Junta said so, his Zonya train had already reached beside the Association building.
"That's fast?!”
Alicia said that while rushing down from the train following Zonya and the others.
Like earlier, the Association building was still quiet, nothing had changed and the Junta was not at all surprised by this, after all they had just left here a moment ago.
“I have an item I want to give to the leaders of the Association”
That's what Zonya said after arriving at the reception desk.
“Oh of course Zonya, just put those things in there and leave the rest to ku”
“I also want to give this, please mark this and give this also to the leader of Association”
”Oh, of course, it seems like the Association is busy not without reason”
The receptionist woman spoke while looking for something under the table.
“That's it, just busy days for the Association”
“But I heard the whole class 5 is also very busy lately, what is it?”
”I think the entire class 5 is indeed often busy with their respective affairs, so is not it no longer strange?”
“I think it is so”
The receptionist looked doubtful and said.
“Is there really nothing to worry about Zonya?”
“There is no need to worry about such an unclear thing, so I just need to put the items I want to leave over there right?”
“To be exact, place it right next to that flower pot, then leave the rest to ku”
“Alright, thank you”
“No problem”
After responding to the receptionist with a smile, Zonya rushed back to her carriage to move the items she had brought, of course Junta, Kou and Alicia help so that the process of moving goods does not take long.
After he finished moving all the items, Zonya raised her hand to the receptionist woman who was walking towards him as a sign that the Zonya was finished and was about to leave, the receptionist woman responded by waving her hand to Zonya who was moving quickly out through the side door and within seconds was already in the carriage and rushing moving out of the city.
