A truce was put in place by a sudden intruder.
The man responsible for this is slowly approaching us with a weight that is different from his weight.

'Hey, hey, hey. Rainrich. Are you going to use that thing in a fight like this?　What the hell did these guys do?

The man's tone of voice is slow and low, not without emotional ups and downs, but it is difficult to grasp his emotions.
My pace is not appropriate for a word that sounds light, but it is my pace.

Haha. You'll know it when you see it. The entrance to my beloved guild has become a complete mess.
That can be fixed. I'm sure they were already dilapidated to begin with. These are the right men for the job. Let's get them to work on it.
Ha!　Yeah. We could let it slide on that one. But I said I'm going to rape and kill these kids. In my guild. What are you going to do about it?
It's just a word. It's just words. It's just a scare.
Okay. So you threatened me. You threatened me.

A disgusting feeling drifts out of Rainrich.
It's as if goosebumps appear in a blur on my arms and back.

''Ah..... Could it be that you're pissed?''
It's pretty obvious, isn't it?　What do I look like to you now, Darwin?
'I see. I mean, how did that happen?　I'm only here because you called me.
Why don't you ask your stupid son about it?
'Hmm?　Is my son here?　Which stupid son?

What is this guy?
I don't know. He's too fast-paced and unpredictable, and I don't know what he's saying or doing or why he's acting the way he is.
I have a bad feeling about this guy. I have a bad, bad feeling about this guy.
The only thing I do know is that he's unusual.
This is a man like Yassis or Reinrich.
I don't want to make an enemy of him. Honestly, I'm scared.

"Oh. Dardaril? What are you doing here?
Father...
It's my dad, okay?　Or was it my dad?　I feel like it was my father.

A man sluggishly approaches Dardaril.

'No, no!　They're coming!　They cheated and set me up!
Hmm?　No, first of all, I'm just saying what the hell is going on. You can't just say it's different all of a sudden.

Even Darwin's rear view, walking slowly with his head tilted back, seems to be giving off a darting black aura.
White, please. Please don't let go of that clenched hand.

''Well, I'm going to bet the woman there on the game...''
Well. You're not going to win. It's all good. Did you win?
'No, sir!　And then, at the last minute, they used a cowardly hand!　I'm being set up!
Hmm. You've made your point.
Dad. Now.
Hush. Now it's Rainrich and Yassis. What do you have to say for yourselves?
The game was about who would buy Mr. Dardaril or his customer, Mr. Wendy.
'Oh. You said. You said you wanted money because you wanted to get some girl. I remember telling you that if you want something, you should make it yourself.
'Yes. So, N$120 million for Mr. Dardaril. We were playing the game of collecting N$80 million for the customer to buy Wendy from me.

Yashis, how can you talk normally?
Maybe you're getting used to it a bit, but I don't think I'm ready for it.

Hmmm?　Why is the amount different?
'Mr. Dardaril already seems to have 50 million knolls, since your principal was around 3.5 million knolls. It's just to equalize the playing field. In fact, I thought it was more in Mr. Dardaril's favor.
Hmm. I may not agree with it, but if he agrees with it, the game is justified.
'Of course. I swear on my oath in the name of the Yashis Slave Trading Company that there was no injustice.
Okay. And Rainrich?
You can talk to me all you want, but why are you acting like you're so high and mighty?

Mr. Reinrich!
Why do you have to be so provocative?

Oh. Sorry. I've been feeling like a detective. Can you tell me a story about Rainrich? Is that good?

Darwin seemed to be agitated too, but most of all, the respectful words were very unpleasant.

''Hm. That's the list and the goods I bought from my boy. If you want to check them out, I've got Yashis and Dardaril to do it.
Hmm..... Heh. Isn't it dishonest in a sense that you don't care about profit?
In-kind. My apprentice made this for me. It's good, isn't it?　She's just starting out, and she's an excellent kid.
Disciple?　Did you take an apprentice?　Huh ... you're going to live a long time.

Darwin turns his body around and looks at me.
Our gazes meet, and for the first time, I see the eyes of a man named Darwin.
Dark, deep, unsure of what he was thinking.
I couldn't look away from those eyes.

'I see. I see, a drifter. You're good.
....

Darwin comes slowly towards me.
I'm scared. I wouldn't want to get too close. I don't want you to come.
But I can't move. I couldn't take my eyes off of Darwin's eyes, and I couldn't move my feet.
Just then, White stepped in front of me and held a knife to Darwin.

''Don't ... don't come.
"You have great loyalty. You're a good slave. And you're a good woman, too. You see. Why don't you quit this guy's place and come work for me?
No.
I'm afraid not.
You know you can't do that!

f*ck you!
What the hell is he saying to Wendy and White?
What does it matter if I'm scared or not scared?

Oh, come on. Your pupils are dilated. This is a joke, man.
Don't say it again.
Oh, yeah. Don't give me that scary look. You're pretty good at what you do. You were so scared of me just now. Hey, Reinrich, you're a good pick-me-up.
Of course. He's my student. I don't like it when you mess with me.
Oh, scary. That's a shame.

With that, Darwin goes back to Dardaril.

''Well, to sum up the story, you're throwing a tantrum and ranting after being completely and utterly defeated.
What, Father?　You're going to believe those people!　More than my son Bok!
What's the point? You've got no excuse for not having evidence.
Can't you believe what I'm telling you, son?
It's not like we're related.... Oh well. I left you alone because you were so funny, but you're such a pain in the ass....
No..... So, then let's kill them together!　If it weren't for them, I wouldn't be losing!　Let's eliminate the game itself. Then we won't have to bother your father!

This is absurd.........
How rotten this guy is from the root. Just when I thought that.
A disgusting feeling that far exceeded the chill I had felt earlier enveloped the place in an instant.

''Aaah!

The source of this is Darwin, as it should be.
He grabbed the chest with one hand and lifted the small, fat Dardaril with one hand.

''Jeez, Jeezebubee!　Ticks!
"You've lost. Brutally. If you're going to win, you must win. But don't try to sully the game. You're playing for your life. If you lose, pull out cleanly, don't you?　Hey, hey. I say that every day!　Mayra!
'Yes, sir. Foster father. You speak of it every day as if it were a cocoon in your ear.

The girl who appeared beside Darwin at some point answered.
Seriously, what time is it? I hadn't noticed it at all.
And it's a girl. She still looks like a teenager, but the vibe is that of an adult.
Your adoptive father means you're adopted again, and you're a step-daughter.

'Right!　And?　What did this guy do?
"He has sullied the sacred game, refusing to admit defeat and barking miserably and miserably at the expense of the Yashis and the Alchemists' Guild, whom he has decreed to be inviolate. He has also attacked the Yashis and the Alchemists' Guild, which he has declared inviolable.
Oh, yeah. I told you not to mess with me because it would be a f*cking pain in the ass!　Nah!
'Yes, sir. Especially since the two of you are doing no harm. I'm not going to let the other children get away with it.

It's terrible.
Treating it like a disaster, Rainrich.
And Yashis being talked about in the same breath as that.
I'm afraid I can't see the bottom of you...

'Right!　Two. Two!　You've broken not one, but two!　You see, Dardaril. You've broken two impenetrables!
'Foster father, to be precise, we must divide it up between Lady Yassis and Lady Reinrich, so there are three.
Shut up!　We're in this together!　One, two, or three, it's all the same!　You know it's over if you break our rules!

That's scary.
It's a bit harsh at the end, isn't it?
I'm glad that the brunt of it wasn't me.
Darwin let go and Dardaril was on his knees and one arm, holding his throat and coughing painfully as he gurgled.

'Hey boys. Take this guy and put him in the dungeon at home. Have him chew a cloth in his mouth to keep him from killing himself. If he escapes or dies, I'll kill you all. Then go. I'm just a pain in the ass.
Jeez, Jeezus!　Oh no, geez!　Go-ho! No, don't touch it!　Don't touch me!
Shut up. Hey, just tie him up and take him away.

There is no question about it.
Or rather, if they let us go home without permission, will it help us settle down?
Oh, Mr. Reinerich, you're still a bit angry. No, I don't.
You know, I forgot to do something too.

"Wait a minute.
'Oh?　What a kid.
White. It's him.
"Hm.

He stumbled over to the squirming man and delivered another fist shot to his pigeon tail.
The man screamed hoarsely and fell down, clutching his stomach and struggling.
This guy had a vile look on his face and tried to get at White.
I didn't feel like I had to give him a blow.
Well, it wasn't my place to do it.

"Holy shit. "Terrible little girl.
Don't be silly. It's the cutest, most reliable thing you've ever seen.

White had his hands on his hips and arched his chest in a gesture of disbelief.
Don't say that White is scary, you scary representative.
