"Oh..."

　Ajas' head mysteriously embraced Ilze's dagger blade.
　Originally, the skull has some firmness.
　to the extent that it is impossible for a man who is not accustomed to fighting to attack with a long sword.
　Of course, if you have more than a certain amount of power... if you're like Ray, you can easily smash the skull with your weapons.
　However, Ilze, who has done very little fighting itself, cannot possibly do such a thing like that.
　Nevertheless, Ilze's blade easily penetrates Ajas' head and even the brain behind it.
　Accepting the blade, Ajas readily gave up his life.
　The man in his early thirties, or in his mid thirties, who had deceived, killed, and done all his vice, was unexpectedly simple.

"Nodding!"

　Lebedev, who was barred from speaking with a cloth in his mouth by an intelligence man around him, screams when he sees his comrades dead.
　Most of the voices were meaningless, but Lebedev's voice still echoed around him.

"If I could understand the sorrow of the death of my comrades, I should have acted normally as an adventurer without doing so from the beginning."

　An intelligence man near Lebedev muttered as he watched Lebedev continue to scream, even though his voice was still hushed.

"Well, the other one is unconscious, and it may be easy."

　Haston was raging, but now he is unconscious after receiving treatment for his amputated right knee.
　Around Haston, who is lying on the ground a short distance away, are several intelligence men in case of emergency.
　He tied his hands, sealed his mouth... his legs were supposed to be tied, but he couldn't do it with his right knee amputated.
　If you don't have your right foot, it's almost impossible to get out of this situation.
　Contrary to the communication that was going on around him, Ilze, who had avenged the enemy he had been chasing for five years, never heard of such words.
　On the contrary, he still looks at the dagger in his hand, even though he killed Ajas.
　Most of the voices around her have not been heard, and Ilze is only half stunned.
　Others, including Ray, don't say anything to Ilze while watching him.
　Ilze now doesn't hear anything... No, I knew I wouldn't understand it even if I heard it.

"Well, Mr. Ray," I'll take the men I catch."

　Dahl glances at Ilze and tells Ray so.

"Oh, do it for me. If you think that some organization is just selling and selling slaves... it's going to be a bigger event than I expected."
"... yes. It was totally unexpected for me, too."

　An organization is an organization, not this country, but another organization... not a powerhouse like the Empire of Bestia, but an organization of the subordinate state of Revlarina.
　For the kingdom of Milliana, there is no doubt that many people feel despised by their subordinates.

(I am sure Dusker was the first of them.)

　Dusker's face could not have been more ruined because he had so blatantly allowed himself to perform in the city he governed.
　the humiliation of being daubed with horse droppings instead of mud on one's face
　rotten as it may be, it is one of the three major factions. Being a central figure in the neutrality faction, it would not normally be believable.
　Of course, Gillum is now in the midst of an extension, and many people are coming looking for work.
　If you think about it that way, it's a good place to pretend that it's a plot, a bad thing, or a plot.
　In fact, thanks to the large numbers of such people, the intelligence forces were busy in many ways at present, and they were not able to send that many people this time.

"But at the moment it's not like the people governing the country of Lavrellina have put their hands in it, it's just the hands of the crime syndicates of that country, is it?"
"Yes, but if only one organization could do such a big event..."
"It must be difficult,"
"Yes. At the very least, I'm sure there are people in the upper echelons of the country who are connected to the organization. In the first place, I don't think it would be so easy to prepare a collar for so many slaves."
"And so,"

　Slave collars are expensive magic items.
　Preparing dozens of them is not so easy for the organization around them.
　Moreover, the adjusters are not the only ones dispatched from the organization.
　It was almost certain that other members of the organization had been dispatched besides Gilm.
　It was unreasonable to think that it was the work of a single organization, considering that it was held with a collar of slaves as well as the adjusters.

"Then, for the time being, I'll excuse me. "I'm running around saying that this case has been resolved, but I think we need to report a lot of details."
"Oh, I see," I've been saved in many ways this time. Let me thank you on behalf of Ilze."
"No, I was saved by the help of the Red Lotus wings."

　Dahl makes a deep bow to Ray and to the Red Lotus wings, Elena and Arra.
　Elena's follower, Yero, is playing on Seto's back, and he doesn't seem to have noticed Dahl.

"Oh, and what happens to the captured women?"
"Well, if you ask them where they were caught, they'll give you a few days' living expenses and let you go."
"...huh,"

　Dahl's words make Ray mutter a little in admiration.
　It was as expected to be released after hearing the circumstances, but I didn't expect him to make a living out of it, even if it was only a few days' worth of it.
　What surprised me was not just Ray, but others.
　In fact, few lords do so.
　That makes it clear that this case is very special.

"Well, this incident is related to the large number of people who gathered for the construction of the Gillum. So it seems that the circumstances are related to that. It may not be accurate, though, since this is a small talk I heard from my colleagues."
"Well, Dusker doesn't want to get involved in the extension, do he? The cost of living for a few days wouldn't be that big, considering the damage caused by rumors."

　Marina muttered in agreement at Dahl's words.
　But that's probably because Dusker is a good lord.

(Of course, it shouldn't just be out of good will.) This incident could be of great benefit to the kingdom of Miliana... or even to the neutrals. Well, that profit... although the risk for the return was reasonably high.)

　This time I was able to stop the adjusters, so there is no particular problem.
　But if the Ajas' deal had been successfully closed and they had escaped safely outside the guillem... Dusker's face would have been more ruined than it is now.
　It is certain that the Dusker will make a variety of demands to the State of Lavrellina, citing this incident.
　Not all the profits from it would go to Dusker's, but it was still certain that they would make a big extra income.
　You'll also need to add something to this case, such as "kejime" or "lost money."

(Anyway...)

　Ray turns to Ilze, saying it's not his job to think about it.
　He avenged his long‐cherished revenge.
　Ray doesn't know whether he feels it or not.
　But there is no doubt that Ilze is watching him fall on the ground with a dagger stuck in his forehead.
　Shouldn't we just leave it a little quieter?
　Ray thought otherwise, but it's getting late at night.
　The date had already changed before the Reys came to the slums, and although it was still nighttime, the morning sun would appear in a few more hours.
　Ray and other members of the Red Lotus wings are treated as the mainstay of the extension work.
　That being the case, I'm too sleepy to say that I'm going to take time off work.
　However, Elena and Arra have nothing particular to do during the day, so they can sleep normally.
　But the Rays are adventurers.
　That being the case, I sometimes stay up all night at the request of others.Fortunately, Ray has rarely been asked to do so, but this can also be considered a good experience.

(I don't want to think of such an experience as a good one.)

　Sleep is also one of Ray's blissful moments.
　And even if Ray's body has a performance that is incomparable to the average human being, sleep is not unnecessary, but essential.
　Given the circumstances surrounding it, it is not desirable to stay up all night, after all.

"Ilze, it's almost time for the morning. You'd better sleep a little."
"...yes,"

　Perhaps recovered by Ray's words, Ilze looks away from the earth's ajas and looks at Ray.
　Ilze still looked dazed, but he probably recovered to some extent. I nodded a little to Ray's words and tried to move from where I was... suddenly stopped moving.
　He then looks again at Ajas' corpse lying on the ground.
　From the sidelines, I don't know what Ilze is thinking.
　Are you in the joy of revenge, or are you feeling guilty of killing someone... or something else?
　Anyway, there is no doubt that Ilze is not normal in Ray's eyes.
　However, it is not well known that a man himself takes care of Ilze.
　That being the case, it was only natural to think that someone should take care of Ilze.
　Fortunately, the wings of the Red Lotus are all women, except Ray, and Elena and Arra are both women.
　If so, there are many people who can ask for Ilze's care.
　Meanwhile... it was Marina who stopped looking.

"Marina, can you order?"
"Yes, leave it to me,"

　Huff. Marina smiles at Elena and Vihela, approaches Ilze's side and whispers something in her ear.
　Seeing Marina like that, Elena and Vihela move their cheeks with a jerk.
　He smiled triumphantly at the fact that Ray had turned to him.
　Marina herself had no intention of doing so, but at least both Elena and Vihela felt so.
　But if you're going to say anything in this situation, it seems like you're jealous of Marina.
　They also decided that even if they thought about Ilze, who had taken revenge, they should stop saying something here, so they both just looked at Marina a little harder.
　...but a little bit of a strong gaze is only for the Elenas.
　The others there...especially those of the intelligence forces, who normally had no contact with the Elenas, had their knees trembled and their teeth tingled.
　Intelligence forces are a collection of veterans, but the fighting and murder unleashed by Elena and Vihela must have been a spine chill for them.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

　The moment Ray asks, both fighting and murder disappear beautifully.

"No, it's nothing," For now, Ilze should rest well. I think I can sort out my feelings a little if I have some time."
"I think Vihela is right, too. Is this Ilze's first experience of killing people, so it's only natural for him to get excited or depressed?"

　Everyone here is experienced in taking people's lives in some way.
　That's probably why Elena understood Ilze's feelings.
　...however, Ray felt nothing special when he killed someone because he was playing with common sense when he came to this world.
　Anyway, this is the end of the night disturbance.
　However, although this case itself has been successfully resolved, there are many things that will remain to be fought over and over again, and the seeds of disaster... well, it has come to light.
