One of the soldiers immediately left alone as a messenger after we met the labyrinth army troop, so the three high-level Guild staffs were already waiting in front of the labyrinth gate…
Even though I said high levels, they were only around 30-35…
"O, this guy is『Mad Magic Axe』 Rudaman…?"
"That's Rudaman Lost Thief King…?"
For some reason, the high-level Guild staff looked extremely shocked as they inspected the bearded Lost Thieves boss with Yamato stone…
Lost Thief King, yes, wondered if it was like a lower version of the Pirate King…?
"Chevalier alike, you've done an amazing job…"
"This rudaman is an evil lost thief who has struck back against many subjugation units…"
"The reward should be over 100 gold coins by now…"
About as much as one magic sword, huh…
The magic axe I picked up earlier seemed to be quite expensive as well…
"Then, the Chevalier is the same…"
"We should bring. lost thieves to the western Guild, please come to the Guild later…"
"Yes, I understand…"
Lost Thieves boss daruma bearded was taken away by all three high-level staff…
Small fries of lost thieves are being made to check their status with Yamato stone in five groups by the labyrinth army…
The reason why I didn't go with them was because half of the young Nobles were exhausted from climbing the meandering grand staircase, so I had to wait for them to come out while they were being taken by the soldiers…
Jeans and Merian were only both returning to themselves, the princess was bearded by Totona…
Every member besides me and Totoma said “There are still some quotas for today.” and then they return to Area 11…
The two people from [Beautiful Wings] were shouting, but they were dragged by Ciel whose hands they pulled…
"Secilia dono…!"
"My level has gone up, noja…!"
"The maze is absolutely magnificent…"
"Congratulations, Mitia the same…"
"What about Jeans dono and Merian dono…?"
Princess Mitia had returned from ascertaining her status with Yamato stone…
If he could get back on his feet in this short period of time, he might be able to become an explorer…
I also asked the two who came with him, but Jeans shook his head and denied it…
"No, we only defeated one Maze Moth…"
Merian who was pondering over something asked me like she had prepared herself…
"Chevalier…"
"What do I need to do to be as strong as your followers…?"
"True training and combat…"
"The girls asked some famous martial artists and fairykin masters in the capital Duchy and practiced without setting aside time to sleep, and they also had a very extreme battle where they almost died in the labyrinth of this city and the others…"
Un, I may not lie…
Power leveling is a secret…
"I understand, so this is really about the actual battle..."
"Although warn you just in case, if you are currently trying to do an actual battle in order to become stronger, you will die within not even a month…"
"Ap, what do you know about me…!"
I was worried about Merian muttering like she was obsessed and warning her…
It seemed like she was surprised by my remark, she reflexively showed her dissatisfaction emotionally…
I know his true nature is only superficial, but looking at his level and skill, he would die without a doubt if he was surrounded by some monsters…
Level 3, he only had the Etiquette skill…
By the way, even though the Jeans beside him had Bronze Plate, his level was 4 and he only had the Socialdan Horse riding skill…
It's a mystery how he got the Bronze Plate…
"Maybe it's good if you hide your social position and practice for a while in the dojo…"
"I think it would be great if you challenged the labyrinth after you gained your confidence back after working hard for a month…"
"Do you also want to say that my sword is a toy…?"
"Merian, leave that…"
"Your anger is misplaced in Miss Secilia…"
Merian would say more, but she apologized with a reluctant face after Jeans reprimanded her…
He seemed interested in training, he asked me which dojo he should go to…
I saw some dojo spots open on some vacant land, but since I didn't know which one was good, I asked the female Guild staff…
"Dojo who has a reputation…?"
"Yes, if possible it would be good if the instructor was a former explorer or someone from the army…"
"Then, I recommend the dojo Horun dono『 Labyrinth Self Defense Style 』…"
"Labyrinth Self Defense Style, yes…"
"Isn't there a dojo with actual combat training…?"
Seemingly Merian was dissatisfied with the recommendation of the female Guild staff, she asked about the other dojo while taking out the rapier on her waist…
The female Guild staff seemed to be expecting that reaction, she fixed Merian's misunderstanding with a smile…
"Ufufu, the Labyrinth Self Defense Style is for actual combat, you know…"
"With self-defense, it means emphasizing on your own safety as a priority, dodging the opponent's attacks to prevent him from injuring you…"
"Because in the labyrinth, having an immediate wound is dangerous for your life…"
"That makes sense…"
"Even just injuring your feet means you can't dodge and you'll be killed in the blink of an eye…"
It seems that Merian has decided to try going to that dojo, although it is unknown if it is because she has understood the female Guild staff explanation or my follow-up…
I lead the young Nobles who finally left the labyrinth…
The four of them who were brought by the soldiers continued to be brought up to the west gate…
Six fine carriages were waiting outside the west gate…
"You fool…!"
The most prominent Baronet Dyukeli, slapped his daughter's cheek with his palm…
It seemed to be a relatively merciless slap, Merian dropped her knees to the ground while blood spilled out from the edge of her mouth…
"Chevalier Secilia.I thank you for your help…"
"I will repay this debt, without fail…"
After telling me so, Baronet Dyukeli took Merian like he dragged her onto a train and went home…
The people who came for the other young Nobles were only butlers and servants, so they boarded the carriage and went home without argument…
The difference suits their big house, but they have one thing in common, the people who come for them are not their parents, but the servants…
They only came to pick up the young Nobles as instructed by their master, but they told me that the head of the family wanted to thank them the next day…
Butler of the Marchioness delivered the words of the Marchioness, asking me to come to the mansion later…
I said tobutler, “I have to report this matter to the Explorers Guild, so I will interrupt in the afternoon.”…
"Thank you for coming, Secilia dono…"
"We're having trouble dealing with Rudaman's man…"
"I can't raise your rank to Mithril as expected, but I'll let you have a special treatment if we get some delicious info…"
"Yes, thank you so much…"
"What's with that lackluster reply…"
A Guild Master who was in a good mood would hug me, I smoothly avoided him…
The bearded Lost Thieves boss Daruma would immediately make his subordinates into bait if the fight turned into his loss, moreover, he had many hiding places, so the Guild subjugation unit could not catch them…
"Your reward should be quite large from the prize money and the sale of the lost thieves who became slaves…"
"Don't forget to take it from the cashier later…"
Guild Master added other words with a vulgar smile, “It was a sum of money uhauha.” This person is perfect for this type of smile…
"Are all Lost Thieves able to turn into slaves…?"
"Yes, they will work in coal as slaves of evil…"
"People like Rudaman who had a grudge against them would be publicly executed after they turned into slaves…"
"This time, the others among the conquered thieves other than Rudaman, will get treatment for his help, the deputy boss… "
Initially, the jobs in coal were already quite dangerous even without public execution, it seemed that they would only live for three years there…
I wanted to protect some of the children who were around the high school students among them, but because they all had [Murderer] in their Reward & Punishment, he said, I ended up not saying anything unnecessary when I thought about their victims and the bereaved families…
Ushana san's secretary entered right at that moment…
It seemed Rudaman wanted to negotiate with the Guild Master…
For some reason, a conversation flowed to me with the Guild Master inviting to the dungeon where Rudaman was being held…
"So, do you have anything to say…?"
"I seek the plea of mercy…"
"Stop saying stupid things…"
"You will be executed in public…"
Rudaman was held in a very tight dungeon…
He was bound to the Magic sealing chain inside the room with a sturdy iron rod…
He negotiated with an arrogant face without looking like he was in pain due to his broken arm…
"That might be the right thing to do, but I can't stand being an exhibition for bad nobles and clean citizens…"
"Can't you get me into Violet…?"
"Look back at your own evil. Your eye-catching head will be shown on the severed head at the west gate…"
There seems to be a barbarian custom…
This is the Edo era…
I want to approach the west gate for now…
By the way, Violet was a unit of the royal army made up of criminal slaves, it seemed that it was a unit with a high level of wear that was specifically used to fight against giant monsters or as bait…
Ushana san told me…
"Will the Nobles there grant my request…?"
"You subdued us lost thieves without killing anyone and deliberately kept us alive…"
"You don't like to let someone die, do you…?"
"Ara. I just want to see you suffer and I want to kill you and torture you, you know…" "
"I'll tell you information that will interest you…"
Information that will interest me, yes…
It might be good to hear it…
"It depends on the content…"
"I'll let you get killed if that's really interesting information…"
"What the fuck…"
"If you don't want to, you already do…"
"All right…"
"There are many daughters [Baggage Carriers] who are explorers down, as sacrifices in our hiding places…"
"And those people made the Fiend Drug as ordered by us…"
"Fiend Drug you said…?"
The Guild Master who was acting as a spectator in silence suddenly interrupted…
Since some names were threatening to come out, I searched through the documents I had…
The Fiend Drug seemed to be a medicine that was originally developed to provide humans with enough physical strength to fight monsters in bare-handed combat…
If you take this medicine, you will be strong enough to get close to 10 levels, besides, it has the effect of halving the exp required to level up…
It spread across the kingdom in the blink of an eye…
However, this medicine had a terrible trap…
If you regularly take this medicine and continue to level up, you will become a terrible monster…
It seems that you will become a monster with 50% probability by leveling up by 10 and 90% probability by leveling up by 20…
Leveling up is good, but it is meaningless if you become a monster…
However, there seemed to be many people who succumbed to the temptation of this harsh world…
I'm bothered by the sacrifice, but let's delay…
"If you leave them alone, the women and children who cultivated the land in our hiding place will be killed…"
"The killer was a noble, just like you…"
"In other words, the person who needs the Fiend Drug is a Noble…?"
"Yes, sometimes we use it too…"
Rudaman wanted to be put into the Crime Slaves Unit (Violet) in exchange for the secret cultivators' place information…
Still, he wasn't careless talking too much…?…
I couldn't help feeling that the Negotiation and Cross examination skills had been used by accident…
"So, what's the name of the noble…?"
"The fool who should have told me that the fool was dead…"
"I know the name of the subordinates who act as agents sometimes bring us food and salt…"
"That stingy bastard's called Besso or something…"
"Yes that guy's tail and the other party should have contacted him…"
"After all, it's meaningless unless we catch them in action, yes…"
"Guild Master, what are you going to do…?"
The Guild Master had a pensive expression on his face for a while, but it seemed that he judged that it would be dangerous if the Fiend Drug were to spread in the labyrinth city, he accepted Rudaman's deal. I can't help even if I stay here any longer, so I bid farewell to the Guild Master…
The prize money and the number of slave sales were about 160 gold coins…
I put it in a bag without counting it…
For now, I tagged Besso before I forgot…
Fumu, the forbidden magic drug, yes…
