　While Roland and his friends were still chasing after Alzea in the "Metal Line," Lisetta was wandering around town, pondering the cause of her defeat in the previous battle.

Huh?　Isn't that you, Lizetta?"

　Leena's eyes light up at the feast on the table.

Yes. It's fine. Please, feel free to eat.

Well, I'll take it without reservation.

(I can't believe that Leena has joined the "Arsenal of Spirits. But this is our chance. If I can find out more about the inner workings of the "Arsenal of Spirits," I might be able to find out something about Aina's weaknesses. And also the reason why my "Javelin" was defeated. ......

I see that you have joined the "Arsenal of Spirits. I was so surprised. How are you, Pato-san?"

Yes, I am." Since I joined the Arsenal of Spirits, the guild leader has taken a good interest in me, and my work is going well.

I have been doing good work secretly since I was at the Dragon's Fireside. Losing Pato is a great loss for us.

Yes," he said. But maybe this is for the best. Thanks to Mr. Roland, I was able to express my unique skills.

(After all, it seems that the rapid progress of the "Arsenal of Spirits" is largely due to the skills of Roland, an S-class appraiser.)

I envy you guys. I was finally defeated by Aina's equipment. I was beaten so hard by Aina's equipment, even in the Dragon's Fireside Chat.

I wonder if you could tell me more. About Mr. Roland.

　Leena flinched at Lizetta's mood, but began to speak.

'...... I see. She said she is good at developing the skills of alchemists and adventurers by using her appraisal skills. And she also makes use of the right equipment for the right training.

Yes," he said. I and Pato have become easier to work with and have improved a lot since we were at "Dragon's Fireside". Wayne, who was like a mad dog when he was in Fires of Dragons (although he was weak against superiors), is doing very well.

Accompanying you on a search?　Are you guys in a dungeon?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes," he said. There, Mr. Roland was instructing the adventurers on the operation of equipment and troop behavior according to their needs. You all improved your skills very quickly.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Can you tell us a little more about the operation of your equipment ......?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm not sure what to say. I guess so. Oh, I should get going."

Oh, that's too bad. I was going to buy you another drink.

Bon appétit.

　Leena sat back down.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After all, she had told him all about Roland's work in the "Arsenal of Spirits.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　By the time she wondered if she had spoken a little too much, she had already spit out all the information Lisette wanted.

　Lizetta left the restaurant feeling satisfied.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

（The reason Aina Burke has grown so rapidly is due in large part to the skills of Roland, the appraiser. And the operation of the equipment ......? If only I had the power of an S-class appraiser, or ......)

The roar of the "dragon-headed cage (dragoon)" echoed through the air.

　It was indeed heroic, but it also sounded somewhat hollow.

　After defeating Alzea and the others, Roland took their equipment just as he had done to the "Winged Dragon's Lamp".

　He took with him four B-class "dragon-headed cages (dragoon)," ten "magic-work" swords, ten suits of armor, and the "Arsenal of the Spirits Return to the

When Aina saw them at the entrance of the "Spirit Arsenal," she realized that Roland and his team had won without even hearing the result.

　She was so moved that she couldn't resist hugging and kissing Roland.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Roland is taken aback by the thin lips pressed against his cheek and the fullness of the bulge pressed against his arm.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Wow," he said. Aina?

Oh, I'm sorry. I was just ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Aina was embarrassed and backed away.

　The people around them laughed at the exchange between the two of them.

Well, ...... anyway."

　Roland coughed as if he were trying to rearrange the situation.

You've helped us win the whole quartet. Now you are the best alchemist on the island.

What?　Are you the best on the island ......?　Well, I don't really feel it. Haha."

　Wayne was astonished to see the "dragon-headed cage" and "magic-work" sword and armor that Roland brought back.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(Seriously? This guy ...... seriously beat the whole quartet's equipment. Even if four members of the quartet were to band together, they couldn't beat Aina alone? (...... no, no)

　Wayne looks at Roland again.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He was still praising the work of his subordinates and collaborators, leaving himself aside, despite the fact that he had achieved so much in the war.

Raul was quietly going about his business as usual in The Dragon's Fires.

　There were no words of defeat in his mind; victory seemed to be a promise.

　That is why he was speechless when he saw the brothers Aram and Liam return home stripped of their clothes.

What the hell happened to your equipment?　No way. ......"

I am sorry, Raul. We also tried our best to make use of the "Dragoon's Baskets," but we were at the mercy of the enemy's terrain-based tactics, and their armor was unexpectedly hard. ......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Suddenly, the ground seemed to lose its equilibrium.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Finally, he uttered the next words.

The old master is at ......, where is Mister Alzea?"

The Master was wounded in the last battle and was unable to come here. ......

He asked me to give this letter to Lord Raoul."

'I retire.

(That old man. It's fine that you're retiring, ......, but if you lost, come and say a few words about it. We're the ones who paid for it. No, it's more than that (......).

　Raul shakes his head and looks down at the floor.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(I don't care about the old man at this point. Why did I lose?　It's true that the equipment made by Aina Burke is tricky, but I should still be a better alchemist in terms of overall strength. How could I lose?)

In the office of "Dragon's Fires," Medes's angry shouts were flying.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The four members of the quartet could do nothing but stand in awe in front of the Medes.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

We have made a javelin, a dragon-headed cage, and even magical crafting equipment, and we have spent a lot of money to hire adventurers, but we haven't accomplished a single thing?　Indeed. If I take my eyes off the road for a moment, this is what happens. Raul, you're the one supervising him, and what are you doing?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Raul remained mysterious as he was yelled at, but inwardly he was chagrined.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

（You son of a b*tc*! You're so arrogant. We're the ones who are cleaning up the mess you made.)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, Raul could not speak back strongly, since it was true that this time they had ignored the Medes and proceeded on their own.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Since when did we become an adventurers' guild?　Since when do we go outside the workshop (atelier) and interfere with what happens in the dungeon?　Since when do we imitate the Thieves' Guild?　Raul, you, don't get me wrong. An alchemist should only make good equipment. Don't lose sight of your own territory by going the extra mile."

　Despite his yell, Medes was relieved in his heart.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(Phew. Somehow I managed to regain the initiative over the quartet. At one point, I wondered what would happen if all the members rebelled against me, but I was saved. I'll have to hold the reins even tighter from now on.)

(This guy ......, what the hell ......?)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Because, don't you think?　Everything is decided by Raul's single word. Even when I objected, the opinions of others were ignored. It's no wonder we can't raise morale and we can't even win.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Raul. You are responsible for this failure. Is that correct?

(d*mn. I can't say anything back.)

...... yes."

　Raul grudgingly agreed.

From now on, Edgar, you will take the lead in dealing with the Arsenal of Spirits.

Us. I'll leave it to you. I'll make sure I live up to your expectations.

　Edgar responded immediately.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yoshi!　Then the entire quartet is to follow Edgar."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

("Yoshi!") I don't think so. Why Edgar (this idiot) of all people? Is he crazy?)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Raul looks at Medes reproachfully, then glares at Edgar.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As Raul predicted, Medes and Edgar were showing off behind the scenes.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Medes chuckled inwardly at the success of his plan.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

（Raul and Edgar are easier to control than Edgar is. (If it were Raul and Edgar, Edgar would be easier to control, and I don't want the quartet to become too close to each other. I can't be sure that they won't form a clique and rebel again. I need the quartet to continue to fight with each other to some extent so that my position is not threatened. With Edgar holding the reins, we can keep Raul's head down for a while. Furthermore, it will also increase the rivalry between the quartet and make them more competitive by making them fight with each other. Hmmm. I must say, I'm impressed with your management skills.)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Raul knew exactly what Medes and Edgar were thinking.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(You stupid idiots. This is no time to be fighting amongst yourselves. Don't you know that the way you've been doing things up to now won't work with Roland? (......)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Raul was aware of all this and shrugged it off.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Lisetta simply watched these scenes in silence.

While the "Dragon's Fires" was showing signs of internal collapse, the "Arsenal of Spirits" had just held a small banquet to celebrate the victory, and the next day they immediately began to make their next move.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Roland held a meeting with the staff and Dylan.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The other day, we finally achieved the feat of conquering the "dragon's head cage (dragoon)," Roland said. I have shown through equipment manufacturing, dungeon exploration, and support for adventurers that if you can draw out your potential and join forces, you can defeat even a quartet. I will defeat the "Dragon's Fires". You must have realized that what seemed like a pipe dream until now is not at all impossible. At the same time, everyone must have understood what I want to do and what I am trying to do. I will support the local guilds and make them strong enough to compete with the outside guilds."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Roland looked around at the faces of those gathered at the meeting.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　No one seemed to have any objections.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Roland continued.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The Dragon's Fires is by nature an individualistic organization. In addition to that, the quartet was defeated. The quartet's identity as a strong and powerful organization, which was once thought to be absolute, is now shaking. Up until now, we have concentrated on increasing our strength, so we have had no choice but to simply defend ourselves against attacks from the other side. Now, however, we are about to seize the opportunity to counterattack. While the enemy is still wobbling, we will strike another blow against "Dragon's Fires," and the "Arsenal of Spirits" will further increase its strength. As a first step, we are planning to extract excellent alchemists from the "Dragon's Fiery Fire. Ideally, we would like to extract one of the members of the quartet.
