Mr. Shillue, again. There's another defector at .......

What?　What do you mean? That's the fifth one in the last three days.

　Something was about to happen in Glendale's largest adventurer clan, Notorious. One after another, adventurers of mid-rank and above had announced their intention to leave the clan.

　One of the leaders of Notorious reported this to the head of the clan, Siryu. Another officer reports the following problem to Sirieu.

"Lenin's gone to dispose of the drugs and hasn't been heard from again. He's a fast runner, he's not going to get caught.

It's unlikely ...... he'll get out of here.

Yes, he is. That's why it's so creepy that he hasn't contacted me and hasn't come back in two days.

　Notorious used the name value of the largest adventurer clan in the country to secure distribution routes that ordinary merchants could not. One of his most profitable products was illegal medicines.

　All of the executives of Notorious, including Siryu, had made a fortune from illegal drugs. The man who was most active in the drug trade, Lenin, is currently out of touch.

　But that was not the only problem.

Not only Lenin and the defectors, but also the underlings have not returned.

Are you saying that they all fled at once?

　Whenever Noorius finds a new adventurer with a certain level of power, he asks them to join his clan. In the beginning, experienced adventurers are kind enough to teach them the ropes of adventuring, but after a certain amount of time, the newcomers are turned into food for the clan.

　If the new adventurers fail, as the clan hopes, they are forced to take responsibility for the failure and are saddled with huge debts.

　If the new adventurer fails to fulfill the request as the clan intended, the new adventurer is forced to take responsibility for the failure and is saddled with a huge debt. The new adventurer is forced to continue accepting requests from the clan to pay off the debt. Just when they seem to be able to pay off their debts, the clan comes back with more difficult requests. Once you fall into this negative loop, you will be exploited by Notorious until you can no longer fight as an adventurer.

　The leaders of Notorious always eat lavish and delicious meals and wear high quality armor. By showing these things to the new recruits, they want them to dream that they can be like them one day.

　Sometimes Shiliu gathers the newcomers, who have no money and can only eat simple meals every day, and buys them a meal. ....... This was also an act to prevent the newcomers from running away. He used a combination of candy and whip, and exploited the new adventurers in a manner similar to brainwashing.

　However, this was only a brainwashing technique.
　There was no effect before the real brainwashing.


d*mn it!　...... could it be the a(i)ts(es)?

　I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not. The next day, after sending the two of them out to kill the silver fox, various problems began to occur in this clan.

"No, you're really thinking too much. I'm not sure what to do, but I'm going to do it.

"But I'm also concerned that we've lost contact with Kiel. I've not even been paid a single spinner!

　I'm not sure what to make of this. He had always had a secret base of operations in various countries, and there was no need for him to stay in this dangerous country.

　Notorious was now facing its biggest problem ever, and Kiel was undoubtedly the one who had caused it. And Shiliu was somehow aware of it.

　Even though he was involved in evil, he was undoubtedly one of the best adventurers in the country. He hadn't come this far just because he was strong. He had a quick mind and good instincts like a natural animal. That's how Siryu made this clan what it is today.

　But that all ends today.


"Sirius! Sirius!　Oh my god!

　The door to the executives' meeting room opened with a bang, and a mid-level adventurer jumped in.

...... We're in the middle of an executive meeting, you know.

I'm not sure what to do.

I'm in trouble!　You have to come now.

What's going on? Explain it to me.

No, it's ....... Just come with me, please!

　For some reason, the mid-level adventurer refused to give an explanation. I'm not sure why, but I'm not sure why.


"What's going on?　Why are you all here?

　At the entrance, there was a group of mid-ranking adventurers from Notorious.

Who's here at ......?

　The leader of the clan, who knew almost everything about the evil that this clan was doing, noticed something.

　There were those who dealt in illegal drugs, those who bought and sold slaves through back channels, those who drugged new female adventurers and did whatever they wanted with them, and those who dealt with new recruits who were no longer useful. Those who were involved in some sort of evil were gathered in this place.

　I opened the door to the entrance...


"Hello. This is a very nice clan in a very nice location.

The only thing better is the place. The thoughts of these people are disgusting and rotten.

They've become so accustomed to the cleanliness of the Lord's mind that they're uncomfortable in this place. These people should be wiped out immediately.

　Three beautiful women have entered, bringing ruin to Notorious.
