"Flamewu!


　Kåñëa slashed up the burning flames in a horizontal line. The blazing flames and the sharp, bright red sword cut both sides of the multiple demons that were in a vertical line.
　He had never seen his abilities clearly.
　But even as a joke, I thought I understood why Riff was afraid.
　Kåñëa is strong.


''Tee-ya!''
"Taah!


　In addition, several adventurers were also fighting in the vicinity.
　They had been called goldfish droppings by Kåñëa, but they weren't that weak. Rather, they were pushing up the front line.
　To put it bluntly, they had no cue.
　The first time they tried to fight, they were eager to do so, but the adventurers were more eager to be the first to go.


We're not going to fight?　You.


　Kåñëa asked as she toddled over to a demon about the size of a B-rank that was lying on the ground.


''No, the momentum is so strong that I didn't think it would be a bad idea for me to get in the way.''
Hmm. You're handing over the credit. It's your way of redemption.
'Atonement ......? That's not what I'm talking about.


　The number of demons defeated and the supplies obtained from the corpses of demons become gold.
　So it's a separate reward from the request achievement money.
　That's probably why their momentum is so high.


　That's why I can't leave. I have to make sure that they have some money left in King's Landing and nearby.
　That's what you call doing your duty.


　But I also know that this is overthinking it.
　I also understand that the depletion of requests is a matter that should be resolved by the guild.
　And I also know that they are not so weak as adventurers that I have to be careful.


　Still.
　I found myself feeling less and less guilty about slacking off.


'I've never done this before. Not like this.


　I couldn't help but mention it.
　There were too many differences between me and the Knights of the Kingdom I had been in before, too far apart .......
　It was as if I was living a different life.




　Then the sweeping of the demons came to a close.
　They were said to be few in number, but it was a close call. No one was seriously injured. Even if they were injured, they were all light.


　In the midst of all this, I suddenly found a piece of crystal.
　It's a light light blue ...... with just a hint of magic left in it.
　This is a magic item. It can be used for a variety of purposes from the rice magic pathway.
　Some of them can be used to produce water and fire for home use, and some can even be used for transference.
　And this one can be found at ......


Hey, I didn't know people used magic items in a sweep.


　Kåñëa popped up from behind me, holding the piece, and said.
　That freaked some people out. Besides, though, the distance seemed close. I can feel her ample breasts just inches from my back.


'Yeah, this magic item, I've only seen it once--'
The message!　The Knights of the Holy Republic, who have been fighting a battle of revenge in the west, have been decimated!　We need all adventurers to support us ASAP!'


　My words are interrupted by a loud report.
　They must have come in quite a hurry. The member of the knight's group that had delivered the message was shaking his legs.
　And the content was worthy of panic.


''Devastation?　Is there enough of a knightly order to keep that neutral ......?


　The adventurers were speaking as their faces turned pale. The situation where the Knights of the Holy Republic are being destroyed seems bizarre.
　I'm sure you'll be able to find out what's going on in the world.


I'm not going to be able to get it right. You asked for it, let's go.


　No matter what the situation, I know what I have to do.
　I'm going to defeat the demon. That's all.
