Ex Strongest Swordsman Longs For Magic In Different World

552 Formerly The Strongest, The Alliance Makes A Request

When Soma reached the guild, it was unusually crowded.

Anyway, there's so many lines out there that it's pretty good.

As a matter of course, it still seems that all entrances and exits to this city are sealed off.

At first glance, the people in line can see that there are many people other than adventurers, and are many of them still merchants?

The more yelling and screaming you hear from the outside, the more incandescent situations seem to unfold within the guild.

But if I give you permission easily, it doesn't make sense that I've done a lot of things so far.

Those who watched for just a few minutes, depressed or turned their faces bright blue, had left the guild behind many others.

"Well..."

But Soma isn't looking at it like any other HR.

Soma needs to get in line with this now and win permission somehow.

Some things were decided by yesterday's discussion, but it is not that difficult to talk about each role, which is one of them.

Soma's vigilance around the city and the extermination of demons if they come out.

The other three are searching for the killer who's causing this.

Vigilance and annihilation are sufficient for Soma alone, and the division is based on the fact that the investigation requires manpower.

All in all, the three of you should have already moved into the investigation, and Soma can't be relaxing here either.

This is not the case, although waiting in line is considered a bit of a prude.

Moreover, while doing this, the rows are stretched slightly.

"Ma, just now - yeah?

And the soma who tried to line up stopped because she looked familiar to the person who came out of the guild just at that time.

The familiar cat ear is definitely that receptionist.

When I finally said it, it looked like I was panicking about why.

Looking at whether something was going on, I looked around at her and...

"Oh, I knew I didn't see it wrong. Oh, um, I'm sorry, but could you come with me?

That seemed like something you were telling Soma, but if it wasn't, it would be a red shame.

I looked around just in case and turned around, but no one else seemed like it.

"Hmmm... I'm telling you to my life, is that okay?

"Yes, definitely."

Though apparently they fit, the intent is unknown.

I don't remember doing anything to be called... but if you want to get inside without being in line, you can hope or fulfill it.

Nodding honestly because there was no reason to say no, Soma stepped into the guild as she was guided by a receptionist, under a surprised, enviable gaze from around her.

Though I was wondering somehow that would happen, it was not the reception that guided Soma, but even deeper into it.

I guess only the people involved usually come along, and what they arrived at is a room of considerable size.

Two sofas so that the table is in one and pinch it across from each other.

It was probably a reception room.

Except no one's sitting there right now.

I was wondering if the receptionist who led me this far would sit down, and so on.

"Ya, I'm sorry I'm late. I didn't think you'd be here so soon. Hey, Sabo... No, I was doing something else."

Looking back at the familiar voice, it was the Alliance staff deputies who were there.

Even if I don't say unexpected, I'm also surprised at the emergence of someone who was in a position to say no to what I expected.

A proxy meets in person as he keeps the city people out.

Soma wasn't dull enough not to see what that meant.

"No, my senior just got here now, and it would be the perfect time"

"Oh, yeah? Good for you. Still, this conversation looks a bit like a date rendezvous."

"... proxy? You know that, don't you?

"I know, I know. I said I'd take it seriously. So that's why they get mad at me when I'm kidding... isn't it weird that I'm supposed to be the greatest here and they get mad at me? I kind of think so, but no. Just sit down and sit down. I'm not gonna keep you talking long."

There's no more reason to say no to that than we've come this far.

In a way, I could also say it saved me a lot of trouble.

If you sit on the couch on the right as recommended by the proxy, the proxy will sit on the couch on the left immediately after that.

I wondered what the receptionist would do, and he moved behind the agent and stood still.

It looks like a secretary, but it's strange because it also looks like you're monitoring proxies.

Maybe it's because that gaze is directed at the top of the proxy's head, not here.

"Hey, you know, I feel like I'm being watched awesome, but is it my fault?

"It's my fault, so let's get on with it. He's too busy, unlike a surrogate."

"Is that it? I knew I wasn't being scorned too much. It's easy for me to do that."

Okay, or so I thought, the proxy basically stuck his hand in his nostalgia, and he took something out.

It's a palm-sized rectangular object that looks like it's made of wood.

It's like not knowing what it is just at first sight... but expecting Soma to be probably alle, the proxy has been offering it as it is.

"Yes, for now, this is a permit to get out of the city. If you show them to the watchman, they'll let you through. It's not like I'm using expensive materials or anything, so I don't know if you'd be happy to lose them if you could because it's a hassle to reissue them."

"Hmm... is that okay?

"Oh, it doesn't look like it's moving at all. Sausage."

"I was largely able to predict during the time I got here, and I figured out almost why my seniors were brought here the moment I found out that a surrogate had arrived. I mean, use it to get out there, explore the surroundings, and destroy the same demons that we had yesterday?

"Wow, we're talking fast. Easy. Well, I didn't mean to be exact."

This means that they came to the same conclusion in part with the Somas.

There's a dangerous demon out there, and I can't deal with a lot with the force here and now.

So outside leaves it to only possible people, and the city essentially seals it off.

There will be dissatisfaction, but it's better than adding a finger and looking at a situation where someone is likely to die.

The reason it could have been anticipated is simple.

Because Soma was going to come here with that suggestion after looking around outside.

To be honest, he even thought about the possibility that he wouldn't be made a glance, but I guess the fact that it's already gotten this far means he was still underestimated.

Soma exhaled small as she received something called a permit.

"Oh, my God, I'm still here."

"Yeah? Uh, no, I guess not, huh? That's just too selfish..."

"The proxy's head is high. Why not? Look, just rub your head on the ground and ask for it. That's the only thing that helps."

"Damn it, this receptionist will definitely be on your neck one of these days."

"So if you can turn the guild, you can try it."

"... damn."

"So, is this a request to me?

When asked about the dimension through, two pairs of eyes were pointed at this way.

It's something I was going to suggest from here more than the original, but that's it.

I would never have gone beyond that if I could get paid, and it would make sense to do so more than I've said from the other side.

"That's what's gonna happen. I don't have a requisition because it's a little too obscure, but I think I can pay the right kind of reward. I just need you to trust me on this one now."

"Hmm, that's not a problem... how long do you expect the deadline to be?

"Right... worst of all, a month, I guess? I asked HQ for backup because it's an emergency, so maybe we'll figure it out by then. I have food stockpiles, so I'll be able to hold on to them somehow."

"It's going to be a terrible dissatisfaction from the city people."

"I don't know if I'll have to put up with that anymore. I'm explaining it to anyone who's here to hear it."

"Oh, speaking of which, can't we just let them know at the same time? That would make my dissatisfaction better, and I think it would be better for me to be in this state."

"What I know now is that there may be powerful demons out there instead of cluttered demons, but hey. I'm not sure if it's artificial or not, and I think it's just extra anxiety."

"So it has a direct relationship, only to those who come to hear it, does that mean..."

It was something I could convince myself of, so I snort.

Unless the residents of this city are convinced, it wouldn't be a bad thing given the current situation.

"That's the thing. Oh, if there's anything else you want to hear, I'll tell you if I can teach you something, okay? I'm not asking you to do this."

"What else do you want to hear, is... especially... ah, no, so why did you make this request my life? I know it's because of yesterday, but then I feel like we're the only ones who want this request, right?

That was the content of the story, and it came from the way the two of them were.

Even though he didn't say who defeated him, etc., the two of them were nevertheless only giving Soma this request, as is normal.

"Hmm, I'm a little troubled when people say why... well, I know, I don't know. They all looked awesome, but you obviously lost one or more of your heads in there."

"Hmm..."

I turned my gaze to the receptionist and the snort returned.

That's for sure, I guess.

I didn't even show you how to fight, but I didn't know you could see it... is that the Demon Nation whose power is the law?

"So, is that all you want to hear?

"That's right... I don't think there's a problem for now. Well, if there's anything that bothers you, I'll come and report it, so that's when you ask."

"It's nice. Maybe I'm not the one to ask and answer then."

With that said, the proxy stands up.

Is the hand offered in place of the requisition?

Well, for now, one of the concerns seems to have been allayed, and with that in mind, Soma shook that hand back.
