Oh, wait."

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

I forgot.

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

If they see the inside of the jail, they will find Sol's magic stone.

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

Are you tired?

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

We have to be firm.

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

Don't go down the stairs because you don't know what's still there. You can talk to me from there."

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

Iliya looks relieved at my words and climbs the stairs a little.

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

I laugh a little at her behavior.

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

I look at her and ask, "Speaking of which, what do you mean Bishop Gupinas is acting so weird?　What's wrong?"

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

I move to the side of the staircase so that I can see Iliya as she moves to the top of the stairs.

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

Looking back, I see that the prison is still flooded with light.

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

If something happens, we should be ready to deal with it.

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

I'm sure we'll be fine, though, since we have Sol's magic stone.

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

When I told him that it had triggered a magic circle over here, he started laughing and said he could help me right away. After that, what can I say, ...... it was the worst."

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

The worst?

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

'Yes. I was like, 'You're going to take off the slave ring, who do you think I am? He would say whatever he wanted to say. When I ignored them, they went on a rampage in the prison. They broke the bed and threw pieces of the bed at me.

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

I was stunned by what Ilya told me about Bishop Gupinas.

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

I didn't expect it to be that bad.

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

I mean, that's not the attitude of someone who is a member of the church.

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

Did he think it was no longer necessary to keep quiet, or was it the effect of the magic circle?

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

What you are talking about is just not right. Also, it's the facial expression, ...... what can I say ....... He is smiling, but his smile is just weird. I didn't think so when I saw him before."

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

You mean his facial expression has changed?

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

Maybe he's gone crazy from using the magic circle too much.

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

Even if he was crazy, I am curious about what Bishop Gupinas said about being able to help.

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

If the magic circle engraved on the body of priest Salifee is activated, it means that someone will appear to start helping Bishop Gupinath, right?

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

'I need more security for Bishop Gupinath.

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

Oh, it's all right. I was concerned about his attitude and the words 'I can help you,' so I doubled his security.

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

Ilya is really capable.

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

But you're not the right choice for Guilmouth.

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

You're not weak, but you're not good at fighting!

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

It's a pity.

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

As expected, though."

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

Ilya looks happy at my words.

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

At any rate, is Bishop Gupinas all right?

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

Well, considering the possibility that a traitor might be in the mix, I can't say that he's in perfect condition.

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

How was the traitor?

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

'As Gilmas said, we found a few with strange attitudes. Three were employees of the Adventurers' Guild and four were adventurers. But there were also some who were subtly unsure if they were bewildered because the bishop had been captured or if they were traitors."

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

For those who believe in the teachings of the Church, it's hard to believe that the bishop was captured.

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

I hope those people don't go berserk.

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

Who were those subtle ones?"

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

'Two guild officials. They tried to approach the prison, so I warned them.

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

Two?

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

That's fewer than I thought.

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

I understand. You did a good job in a short time. Thank you.

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

No, I like this kind of people-watching work.

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

I know.

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

I've never had a guy volunteer to be a jailhouse keeper saying, "I get to watch criminals all day long."

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

He's a good person.

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

It's a shame.

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

"Gilmas!"

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

I heard Pearle's voice from behind me and turned around to hear a slamming sound coming from the stairs.

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

I checked the sound and found that Iliya had evacuated to the top of the stairs.

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

Well, that's okay.

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

What's wrong?"

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

The light has gone out of the magic circle.

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

Is it over?

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

I went to the prison where Salifie was and looked inside.

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

Indeed, the light from the magic circle was nowhere to be seen, and the prison was back to its original dimly lit state.

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

Salifie was lying on the ground, her body seemed to be twitching and twitching.

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

I'll check."

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

Pierce stops his attempt to go to jail.

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

I'll--"

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

'No. 'Because if something happens to Guilmouth, the damage would be much worse.

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

Pearls says just that and quickly enters the jail.

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

He then turned Salifie, who was lying on her side, on her back and checked her pulse.

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

After checking her color and the condition of her eyes, he walked out of the jail.

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

How was she?"

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

'I feel like I'm out cold. His eyes were not bloodshot, so I don't think there is anything wrong with him, but he is very pale.

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

I see.

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

Did he collapse from the impact of the magic circle being activated?

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

I don't know at this stage if he collapsed because he reached his limit.

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

I'll be able to talk to him when he wakes up,......, but we'll have to wait and see.

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

Ilya. Go to Appas' house and tell him that the magic circle has settled down for now.

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

I understand."

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

I hear Iliya leaving the staircase.

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

I'll put her to bed for now.

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

Peal returned to the prison and moved Sarifee, who was lying on the ground, to the bed.

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

Oh, shoot.

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

I checked the number of traitors, but I didn't ask who they were.

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

Huh, I never thought I would make such a mistake.

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

Shall I set up a new guard?"

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

Peal exits the jail and locks the door.

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

'Yes, we'll need a lookout, or rather a guard. We'll have to keep an eye on things, in case someone comes to take Sarifee away.

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

At any rate, we exit the basement and head for the stairs leading to the top.

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

Is this it?　Gilmouth, are you there?

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

Who's there?

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

I heard a voice I recognized but was unfamiliar with.

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

"Sorry. It's Gullit.

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

Ah, it's one of Mr. Ginal and the other members of 'Wind.

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

What's going on?"

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

The voice earlier sounded a little impatient.

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

I put my hand on the stairs and looked up.

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

Gullit raised his hand at the top of the stairs.

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

As I walk up the stairs, I see something lying at Gullit's feet.

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

Wondering about it, I approached it and saw that it was a person.

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

Their faces were looking at us, and when we checked, we saw two people: an adventurer's guild official and an adventurer-looking man.

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

As I tilted my head to look at the fallen people, a vial was quickly offered to me.

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

I wondered, and took it.

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

What's this?"

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

It's a potion they had in their possession to numb their bodies for a moment. It is mainly used when you are attacked by a monster stronger than you.

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

Are they making fun of me?

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

That much can be predicted by looking at the color.

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

The numbing potion for demons is a beautiful light blue color.

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

Don't stare. These guys were going to put it on the guy who came out of there. They must have decided that they wouldn't stand a chance if they attacked Gilmas head-on.

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

Hm?

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

You mean the door of the stairs leading to the prison?

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

The guy who comes out of there, is he after us?

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

"Well, he's a traitor, isn't he?"

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

"Oh."

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

I knew you'd come, but you're faster than I thought.

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

Thank God.

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

No, the Commander asked me to go check on them because they might be dangerous. There are a lot of people over here who haven't yet been unarmed, aren't there?"

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

I nodded at Gullit's words.

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

I mean, most of them are still in the art.

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

The vigilante group is almost finished.

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

'Eh?　Aren't we early?"

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

I've prepared another magic circle and doubled the number of people who will be able to break the jutsu.

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

But that should put a lot of strain on those who are activating the magic circle to break the jutsu.

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

Hmm?　Oh, don't worry. It is the hope of those who are solving the magic circle that we made another magic circle.

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

At these words, Peal, who was behind me, sounded surprised.

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

That would be true.

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

They have already activated quite a few magic circles. He was asking them to increase their numbers on top of that.

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

How are they doing?

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

They're fine. They're delighted that it's so easy to use and can be used over and over again.

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

Hmm?

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

I tilted my head at Gullit's strange explanation, but then I sensed the presence of someone a short distance away.

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

Are they friends or traitors?

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

Well, they must be traitors since they are hiding and spying on us.

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

Peal also noticed the hidden presence and quietly moved away from behind me.

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

I see. That's good to know. Speaking of which, is it morning already?"

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

I raise my voice a little.

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

"Oh, ............, shall we go out for dinner?"

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

I'm not sure what to say.

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

I looked at Pearle quietly, and then I turned away and approached the place where people were hiding.

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

'Right. But first, I'll have to ask you to guard Salifie.

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

'We can do that after we've eaten dinner. Nothing else matters now, right?"

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

Yeah, and we've got all the traitors.

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

Gong.

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

Whoa."

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

I looked toward the sound and saw one man being held down in the hallway by a peal.

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

I saw his face and knew that my own expression was distorted.

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

I had no idea you were a traitor.

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

Are you close?"

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

'...... I've known you since childhood.'
