I was concerned because there was no sign of Mr. Fiesche, but he was still not there.

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

I searched a little farther for her presence, but she didn't seem to be anywhere nearby.

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

If it were Fieshe, I would have sent him to call his friends.

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

Mr. Zinal, who had noticed my condition, tapped me on the shoulder.

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

I was a little nervous, but I was not.

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

Who's coming?　Can you trust them?

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

Mr. Zinal nodded in agreement with his father's words.

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

Don't worry," he said. I have a pretty good idea who betrayed us.

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

Mr. Zinal's eyes were slightly downcast.

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

I guess it's hard to have a traitor in the group," he said.

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

He's not going to get away with it. He's a f*cking idiot.

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

Not quite.

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

I felt a strong presence next to me and took a step away.

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

The gatekeepers were also pulling back to look at him.

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

Hey," he said, "you're leaking all kinds of stuff. You're leaking all kinds of stuff.

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

Jinal-san smiles at his father's words.

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

The gatekeepers see that smile, and they are about to cry.

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

But this smile is still good.

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

What kind of contract did you sign?

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

At Mr. Zinal's words, all of the gatekeepers startled.

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

Seeing this, Zinal shakes his head.

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

Can't we talk?"

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

All six heads nodded slightly.

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

All of you go back to the gate. You guys go back to the gate.

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

At Mr. Zinal's words, one of them tried to say something, but the words wouldn't come out.

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

Then his gaze wandered and he looked at me.

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

I nodded my head in response.

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

'Have you been ordered to take Ivy hostage?'

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

The gatekeepers nodded in response to the father's words.

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

Orders, huh?

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

I'm sure they had to do it because they were bound by a contract.

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

What do we do ......?"

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

Mr. Zinal wrinkles his brow.

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

His father also has a grim expression on his face.

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

Bakibaki-bakibaki.

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

What?"

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

Dad stands up and pulls his sword out of its sheath.

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

The sound of falling trees echoes from around him.

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

And the magical power of Mr. Serpent filling the air around him.

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

Bakibakibakibakibakibakibakibakibakibakibakibakibakibakibakibaki.

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

Hiccup!

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

I look at the gatekeepers at the sound of a small scream, and see that some of them are hunched over from fear.

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

I was stunned by that.

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

The magical power I felt from Mr. Serpent was not that strong and not mixed with a killing spirit.

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

But it's impossible for them to sit up straight.

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

Are these people really gatekeepers?

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

"Serpent, Serpent!

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

Why, here, in a place like this ......

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

Hiccup!"

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

The gatekeepers are completely confused and are about to start running.

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

This is no good.

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

In this confused state, they might go deep into the forest.

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

If that happens, we could really be attacked by demons.

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

Don't move!"

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

Mr. Jinar's yell echoed.

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

The gatekeepers, who had been flailing about, froze in place.

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

It was amazing.

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

That's just the kind of voice that would make Zinal-san's voice filled with murderous intent.

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

I shivered, too.

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

I looked up as a shadow formed, and saw Serpent-san glancing at me.

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

They looked at each other, but went straight to the back of the forest as if nothing had happened.

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

The sound of loud scraping on the ground echoed through the forest for a long time.

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

He didn't seem to notice us.

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

Yes, he did.

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

No, he glanced at me, didn't he?

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

I made eye contact with you exactly.

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

Just as well. Tell them the Serpent came through and lost Ivy and the others. "Tell them that the Serpent came and lost Ivy and the others, and they'll think it's true, because they'll see the Serpent's tracks.

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

At Mr. Zinal's words, I looked at the spot where the Serpent had passed.

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

The trees had fallen and the ground was covered with the marks of the Serpent's path.

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

I felt a sense of discomfort.

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

Usually, Mr. Serpent hardly leaves any marks. ...... Oh, maybe he cooperated with us?

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

As if the gatekeepers could have just gone back.

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

But how did they know what was going on now?

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

Yes. Thank you."

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

One of the gatekeepers bowed to Mr. Zinal and the others, and the other five hurriedly bowed as well.

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

The other five bowed in a hurry. Their somewhat primitive appearance prompted me to ask them about something that was bothering me.

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

How long have you been a member of the Neighborhood Watch?

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

The gatekeepers give me the impression of being young.

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

I thought that impression was strange, because it takes a certain amount of experience to become a gatekeeper.

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

I've been here eight months, and the others six months.

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

What?

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

Eight and a half months?

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

A gatekeeper in such short time?

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

I guess my impression wasn't wrong after all.

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

I see. Thank you for answering."

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

Dad and Jinaru-san looked extremely reluctant.

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

As we watched the gatekeepers return, the father let out a loud sigh.

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

'The Serpent did a good job, didn't he?

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

Yes, he did."

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

Dad agrees with Mr. Zinal's words.

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

I nod again and again.

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

I really think they came at a good time.

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

Ah, Ciel is coming this way.

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

Ciel's presence approaches from deep in the forest.

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

After a while, she appeared right in front of me.

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

"Nyaun."

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

Ciel, you're back.

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

"Nya-un!"

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

What is it?

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

Ciel is somehow good at what she does. ...... Hmm?

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

"Perhaps it was Ciel who asked for Serpent's help?"

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

Nya!"

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

Her tail flapped happily, as if her father's words were right.

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

I'm not going to thank Mr. Serpent for that. I have to thank Mr. Serpent as well.

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

Nyaun."

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

The first time I saw him, he was really exquisite.

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

The most important thing to remember is that you can't just take a few minutes to do a little bit of research.

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

Speaking of which, Mr. Fiesche was going to bring someone with him.

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

I wondered if my father and I could stay here.

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

Mr. Zinal, who is Mr. Fieshe bringing with him?"

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

It seems to be Mr. Zinal's companion, so I guess it's all right, but I'm curious.

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

'It's the daughter of the innkeeper. She's on our side, no problem."

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

The innkeeper's daughter, huh?

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

I didn't see her at the inn.

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

I felt Mr. Fiescher's presence from the village.

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

And a strange presence.

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

Was it the shopkeeper's daughter, as Mr. Zinal said?

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

'More importantly, you've done a mother-in-law thing.'

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

Mr. Zinal gave a disgusted look at his father's words.

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

What do you mean by "mother-in-law"?

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

That you tried to use me as a hostage?

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

Speaking of which, I have my father by my side.

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

Mr. Zinal and Mr. Fiesche are also there today.

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

So why did they target me?

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

I look at my father.

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

He is holding a sword, and I can tell from his body that he can fight to some extent.

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

Zinal and Fyshe are high level adventurers.

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

Would I aim for them on a day when all three of them are together?

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

If it were me, I would definitely go for another day.

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

Were they really going to kidnap me?

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

No matter how I think about it, I don't think it's possible to kidnap you today.

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

On the contrary, I can see them doing it.

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

You were going to have us kill the six of us."

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

Your father's words startled me.

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

He was going to make us kill them?

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

A sacrifice to put us at a disadvantage.

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

The father nodded in agreement with Zinal's words.

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

You mean you wanted to put us in a disadvantageous position ...... and have your fathers killed?

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

The vigilantes and both guilds are already working hand in hand to do evil.

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

If these three organizations can switch the cause of the killings to something else, they can make the fathers out to be murderers.

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

Or a bargaining chip if they don't want to be murderers. ......

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

Worse.

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

Can't we help the gatekeepers?"

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

I look at my dad and he pats me on the head with a pop.

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

'Jinal, you're going to be okay, right?'

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

Jinaru nodded without hesitation at his father's words.

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

They really are idiots," he said. Thanks to your showing us their hand, we now have a rough idea of how far they've gone. All we have to do now is to get the evidence. And I think I know where that evidence might be.

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

It's the way you laugh that makes you look like you're about to do something wrong when you're trying to right a wrong.

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

Unlike earlier, Mr. Zinal shows a smile that is really pissed off.

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

Dad doesn't seem to want to stop.

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

Hm?　They're here. Ivy and the others can disappear, but what are you going to do?"

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

I don't know.

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

It seems like someone Mr. Ginal and the others trust.

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

But I'm a little nervous.

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

I'll hide. I'm not going to get involved any further."

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

Zinal nodded at his father's words.

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

I understand. I'll meet you later. Where do you want me to go?

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

To the dump.

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

Okay. See you later.

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

I watch Mr. Ginaru go to the village, and then I start walking to the dump.

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

Dad.

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

If it's those six or so, we can take them down without killing them, right?"

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

He chuckles at my words.

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

I can do it.

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

No doubt, Mr. Zinal and the others could do it, too.

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

There is too much of a gap in ability between the six of us who have been vigilantes for less than a year and the top adventurers.

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

They would be able to defeat him without killing him.

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

I wonder if the person who came up with ...... this strategy is an idiot?
