134-Episode 6 Leave No Evidence
I was looking around town for Mira.
"Come in," I said. Hey, isn't that you, Arrell? What can I do for you today?
Grandma, have you seen Mira?
Mira??I haven't seen you.
Okay. Let me know if you see him.
I wasn't in the item shop in my neighborhood.
'Oh, Arel, what's up??What are you looking for?
Have you seen Mira?
I haven't seen her. By the way, I hear she's getting more and more feminine lately. I was wondering if you would be so kind as to introduce me...
Mira's only ten years old. Think about how old you are.
The familiar face of the old man, 32, who is also a member of the town's vigilante group, doesn't seem to have seen Mira.
'Hmm??What's out there??Mira?
Whew!
What a cat.
The cat that had been scavenging the trash can ran away.
I looked everywhere after that, but I couldn't find it.
Arel, were you there?
None.
He's not here either...
It's a small town, so the three of us could finish seeing all the notable places in about an hour if we split up.
We decided to take another look at it to see if there was anything we missed.
Maybe they are hiding somewhere.
It could be up in a tree, or in an abandoned house.
Even in a small town, it is indeed quite painful to try to find that much.
Before I knew it, the sun was beginning to set.
But still, we couldn't find Mira.
In fact, there was almost no news of her sighting.
I'm not going to be able to find it here....could it be outside of the town...?
If that's the case, we're in trouble.
There are demons outside the town.
The town is surrounded by a wall, and there are only two entrances and exits: the north and west.
I came to the north gate.
My father should have seen this place once, but I decided to check it out again just in case.
'Yes. I've seen him.
Are you sure?
Then a woman near the gate reported seeing someone who looked like Mira.
'I think she was in a carriage heading north to the city,'
Carriage...?
If it was a carriage, there would be an escort on board, so there would be less danger, but now there would be another problem.
Riding in a carriage is not at the level of going out of town for a bit of a change of pace.
''Don't tell me Mira is planning to go on a trip...?
You didn't say anything to your family?
Anyway, let's go after it.
According to the woman, it was in the morning when the carriage that Mira said she rode in left.
That means she may have left the church and come straight to the boarding area.
Matty," he said. Tell Dad and Mom and then Laina what you just said.
Hey, yeah.
Sending out the submissive demon as a liaison, I decided to follow the carriage.
? ? ?
After Arel left town following his sister's ride in the carriage.
The woman who had provided him with the information went into a nearby building.
And there, waiting for her there was
Did your brother leave town in pursuit of Mira as planned?
It was exactly the person in question that Arel was looking for at the moment - Mira.
'Yes. It seems that he believed the sightings we had.
It's superimposed.
The woman reported, and Mila nodded with satisfaction.
Then, sister. The rest is up to you.
Out of the corner of her eye was her sister, Astaire.
Now that she was already overtaking her height, Mira would look more like her sister from the edge.
''Umm... but are you sure you're okay?''
Don't worry. I will master this profession in two.......no, one year. So in the meantime, I want you to use your subordinates to keep my brother apart like you are doing now.
In fact, the woman just now was one of Astaire's subordinates.
''That thing should be a hindrance to your sister as well. My sisters and I will join forces to get rid of it.''
But hey... if Arel finds out...
'I don't leave any evidence. With this profession, I should be able to do that.
But it's only a year...
Mila could tell that her sister wasn't too keen on the idea.
Speaking of which, I found a mysterious diary in the back of my bed.
'Nuh-uh!?I thought I threw it away properly!
It was so interesting that I've memorized the contents perfectly. Now I'm going to go into town--
I'll help!?I'll help you and I don't want you to do that!
Astaire cries out with tears in her eyes.
The women under her command are slightly dumbfounded by the sight of such a pathetic lord.
''Kureha, are you there?''
Here.
When Astaire called out to her, a petite Eastern girl dressed in a ninja costume appeared out of nowhere.
She is one of the eight imperial generals and specializes in various covert missions.
''Therefore, take care of the rest.
"As you wish.
It was Astaire who eventually threw everything to her.
''Well don't make it easy for me to say that. It's extremely difficult to guide that monster.''
Kureha secretly complained later.
? ? ?
I was chasing the carriage that Mira said she rode in.
It was flying through the air and was many times faster than the carriage.
I thought I might be able to catch up with them on the way.
Are we already in a town up north...?
I've seen a few carriages that looked like that on the way.
But in none of them was Mira riding in the carriage.
'It's a town,'
Eventually we reach the town to the north.
It's a small country town not much different in size and population from Fainot.
The sun has already set.
Still, I call out to the townspeople to see if there have been any sightings.
"Have you seen him?
Yeah. I saw it. But we don't know where they went, do we?
Apparently, he was still in town.
But I didn't know any more than that.
''Well it can't be helped. We'll stay at the inn for today and resume our search tomorrow.
? ? ?
'Wait, Master Kureha!?I'm already over here!?Too fast, right?''
"So I told you. "I told you to watch out for that guy.
'To begin with, it's a two-day journey by carriage!?This is usually overtaking you!?In the meantime, I gave you false information in the guise of a townie, with my sister arriving first!
"...He knows?
"No, it didn't feel like that, but...
'I see. Maybe I'm too crazy to have any common sense. Thank God.
