With the warrior and healer of the Great Sword of the God of War's expression changing, I understand that the two of them have finally realized their blunder.
　They shouldn't have thought of Mr. Ronaldo as the same as the other adventurers.
　Without mentioning the change in their attitudes, Ronaldo-san continues to speak with the same calm demeanor.

''Speaking of which, I forgot to mention that I currently have authority comparable to that of a branch head, albeit temporary, now that the Maze Runaway is occurring.

......!

　With those words, the War God's Great Sword Healer's face turned increasingly blue as he realized his further blunder.
　As for the healer's prospect, now that he didn't have a branch leader, he thought that if he could convince the people around him, he would be able to save himself.
　But that prospect crumbled fragilely into the assumption that Mr. Ronald was the commander.
　In fact, he was a temporary commander who might change if the Branch Chief Mist showed up.
　It was irrelevant, though, as far as the current punishment of the two men was concerned.

'......, I'm...'

　The healer, deciding that he couldn't go on like this, tried to utter some kind of excuse, but the words faltered in the middle.
　He couldn't think of anything to say.

　Ronaldo-san continues to speak, catching both the healer and the warrior in his strands as he is unable to say anything.

'In the event of a labyrinth runaway, we will follow the judgment of the person in command. As an adventurer, you have broken a mandatory agreement and caused damage to the labyrinth city. Are you aware of that?

'　That's what got the chapter president off the hook in the first place: ......

　Ronald asks nonchalantly to the warrior who tried to make excuses.

'You think because the chapter leader ran away, they've abandoned themselves and all the people here?

''...... huh?!''

　At that moment, the gazes of the people around him towards the War God's Great Sword turned even colder.
　Even those who should have thought that having the Great Sword of the War God would have been more of an asset until now were glaring at the warrior and the healer.
　In the midst of all this, the warrior, who finally understood that no matter what he said, he would only create their own enemies, became silent, his face contorted in an abhorrent manner.
　However, that silence only made the situation even worse.

''Well, then, you're ready to go, aren't you?''

　The two people who were silent, perhaps judging that there was no need to talk anymore, Ronald-san told them with the same expression on his face - he raised the magic sword that was separated from the others.
　A clear fear appears on the faces of the warrior and the healer who saw the raised magic sword.
　Only now did the two of them finally understand.
　That the reason why Ronaldo-san drew his demon sword was not to threaten them or anything, but to kill them.

''Well, wait!　There's no such thing as being killed: ......

　At that moment, for the first time, Ronald-san opened his mouth with a different, cruel smile.

''What's the point now, while waking up planning to escape to the next town. It's decided that it's forbidden to try to escape to the next town when a labyrinth runaway occurs. If you're going to hold a grudge, do it to yourself for making a stupid decision.

　No matter how we behave, we're not going to escape our own deaths.

"...... yeah, nah.

　The warrior and the healer's face went beyond blue and white as he understood what Mr. Ronald was saying without saying it.
　Still unable to accept the fate that awaited him, the warrior shouted desperately.

'Ho, are you really going to kill me!　We're top-notch adventurers!　The strength of the Maze Runaway is going to be greatly reduced!

　To the warrior who was shouting words that no longer resonated with anyone, Mr. Ronald just quietly spat out.

'What do you do with that level of ability?'

　It was at that moment that an intimidation that surpassed even the super-difficult demonic beast was emitted from Ronald's body with a calm expression.

　It was only for a moment.
　However, that was enough to tell the difference between Ronald-san's ability and the War God's Great Sword's ability.

''In the next life, you should think carefully before you act.

　In the next moment, Ronald's magic sword was swung down at the warrior and the healer, whose faces were contorted in despair.
　At the same time, a powerful flame blew out from the magic sword, turning the bodies of the warrior and the healer into ashes in an instant.

　After that scene, what spread in front of the guild was silence.
　Regardless of the adventurers and the people of the city who were ordinary people, everyone was overwhelmed by Ronald-san's ability and the strength of the magic sword in his hands.
　The silence, which seemed as if time stood still, was broken as Ronald-san turned to the adventurers trapped in the noose.
　The adventurers, who could not hide their nervousness, were asked by Ronald-san with a calm expression that belied what had happened earlier.

"Do you realize that you are on the same level as these two?

　At the question, a look of despair spread across the adventurers' faces.
　What the captive adventurers had in mind was an undeniable fear of Ronald-san, who had easily executed the two great swords of the God of War's great sword.
　From Ronaldo-san's words to those two, the adventurers understood that they too had done what they could not help but be killed.
　After carefully checking the adventurers' expressions, Ronaldo continues his words.

'Yes, I have the authority to kill you all. But the two ringleaders seem to have a better valve than I imagined, and you may be the victims of this. So I'm going to give you guys a chance to move on.

　At those words, the faces of the adventurers, who were trembling in despair, changed.
　To those adventurers, Ronald-san smiled provocatively and shouted, "Redeem your sins with this runaway labyrinth.

"Redeem our sins with this labyrinth runaway!

　The words of Mr. Ronald were never big enough.
　But they echoed loudly in front of the guild, and I noticed it in my ears.
　Before I knew it, most of the people in front of the guild were keeping their mouths shut and listening to Ronald-san's words.

''With your achievements in this labyrinth runaway, turn your sins against the people of this labyrinth city and rise up.

　With an attitude that seemed somewhat amused, Ronald repeated the words.
　It was no longer a word he had said only to the adventurers trapped in the rope.
　The adventurers in the square were listening to Ronald's story.

I'll tell you one thing. We, the very best adventurers, started out as a runaway in the labyrinth.

　There was no cheering from the adventurers in response to Mr. Ronald's words.
　Instead, there was an extraordinary heat in the eyes of the adventurers.
　The one thing that came to their inner minds was one thing: hope for their future.
　They must be imagining their own heroic tale that might begin with this labyrinthine runaway.
　Confirming this, Ronald-san nodded with satisfaction.
　Next, Ronald-san turned to the townspeople, whose faces were red with excitement, as if they had been hit by the heat of the adventurers.
　To them, Ronald-san bowed his head.

''First of all, I would like to apologize for the outbursts of the guild branch leader and some of the adventurers.

　There was a sense of turmoil among the people of the city who hadn't even considered that a top-notch adventurer, whose name was echoing even in the labyrinth city, would apologize.
　Without paying any attention to such reactions, Ronald-san looked up and continued to speak with a smile.

''But don't worry about it anymore. I promise you that as long as we top-notch adventurers are here, there will be no danger in the labyrinth city.

　I have been told by my masters about the dangers of the labyrinth runaway, and even they have been told that it is dangerous.
　Even so, Ronaldo laughed with such an imposing attitude that you could almost believe his words.
　The people of the town, who must have felt more than a little uneasy about Ronald-san's attitude, could feel a sense of relief spreading through them.
　After bowing, the people of the city open their mouths excitedly as they watch Ronald-san's back as he begins to give instructions to the adventurers.

''It's really good to have a top-notch adventurer-sama here!

'Yes!　This will help you manage the labyrinthine runaway: ......

　A joyful look on their faces that I hadn't thought of until just now.

　But in contrast to the people of the city, I had a feeling of anxiety in my heart.
　Indeed, Ronald's words sounded good at first glance.
　I'm going to give the adventurers who tried to make a scene a chance, or so it sounds like I was trying to be merciful.

　...... But in reality, I knew that even the adventurers who caused the commotion had to work at it.

　Essentially, the more labyrinthine a runaway occurs, the more likely it is that the adventurer's runaway will occur, and the stronger the punishment is usually.
　That's also why the guild stipulates that the person in command has powerful authority.
　The inability to do so was what spoke more eloquently of the current lack of manpower than anything else.
　The current strength is so lacking that even the ...... adventurers who have violated the obvious crimes have to be counted in the strength of the battle.

If only ...... I had been aware of it.

　I can't help but feel regret because I was able to determine that from the knowledge I gained from the book.
　At the very least, if I had been a little more wary of the Great Sword of the God of War .......
　My thoughts were interrupted by the voice of my master, who seemed to be in a slightly grumpy manner.

''Roust, Narsena, come to the back room of the guild.

　After telling us that much, Master doesn't even wait for our reply, and he quickly goes back to the guild.
　Before I knew it, Ronald, who was directing the adventurers to untie the trapped adventurers, was also heading towards the guild.
　Seeing this, I opened my mouth to Narcena, who was beside me.

''Is it about discussing the future?''

Come to think of it, you and Zeke and the others haven't heard anything about the chapter president yet, have you?

...... Oh, yeah, that's right.

　Remembering the Elf Chapter Head who disappeared, Mist, made me feel even more depressed.
　It's a good thing that you're not the only one who's been in the same situation.
　I'm not sure how on earth I'm supposed to explain ...... so, while worrying about that, I walked with Narsena to the back of the guild.

''I told you before, didn't I?　He doesn't like it that way.

　It was then that we heard Master's unhappy words from the back of the guild, from the guest room where we thought everyone was, and it was then that we heard Master's unhappy words.
　We wondered what was wrong and hurriedly entered the guest room, but what we saw was Master questioning Ronald-san with half an eye.
　Zeke and the others who were in the room before us may not have understood the situation, but they had a look of confusion on their faces.
　With such surroundings aside, Master opened his mouth to Mr. Ronald,

"Ronald, you took advantage of our escaped adventurers, didn't you?　As a decoy for a bunch of hexenbiest.

　...... And then the master told us, as if we hadn't imagined it.
