The royal capital was ravaged by a band of outlaw mercenaries.

　Stalls were robbed of their goods, and merchants who complained were crushed in their shops.

　Every woman in the street was accosted by every man and woman in the street.

　When a group of knights stop them to admonish them, the battle begins immediately. Moreover, the mercenaries are far superior in strength and are unstoppable.

　I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this.

''Chii ......!　I heard that the knights called for support from outside the royal capital. That's why I didn't want to call them, I didn't want to call them!

　Yupoboppo's face contorts, not even trying to hide his disgust.

　Aidy, who was next to him, also has a bitter look on her face.

''But I'm doing my job. I hope you can find it by the time you're within the King's Capital under my authority: .......

　The bad rumors of the mercenary group were naturally present in the royal capital as well.

　The gatekeepers had no intention of letting them through at the beginning either. That's why they had to wait on the perimeter of the capital until now. I'm sure you'll be able to find a good deal more to say about it.

　But even so, Idi managed to pry it open.

　Just to search for Willa.

''Oh dear, why do we have to move to find one daughter?''

　While saying this, a man approaches Yupobopo and Idi.

　He has gray hair and red eyes. He has a youthful face, but there are multiple scars on his skin--

-- Volkinesis ....... Can't you get your guys to be a little more docile?

　As expected, Yupoboppo couldn't be bullish.

　The fact that the Volkinesse mercenary group is under the command of Upoboppo is itself a miracle. He is aware of that fact, and that's what he said and did.

''No, no, it's impossible. We came here when we heard that the Kuzela Kingdom is at war. And yet all we do is escort merchants, so we have a lot of things to do.

　Yes. Volkinez and others came to fight a war.

　The first group of mercenaries they hired was in the name of Aidi. It was hired to fend off other nations that were interfering in the kingdom.

　It had been turned into a merchant escort for some time now.

　Even as Volkinez, he was going to cut it off without an extension as soon as the contract expired.

''Oh, speaking of which...''

　He reports with a half yawn, looking extremely unimportant.

'It's the daughter you're looking for, but my men found her on her way to the Knights' headquarters.

What?　Why don't you say that sooner!

　Yupoboppo's tone of voice was wild with too much excitement.

　At that, Volkinez glared at him with a guileless stare, and Upoboppo's demeanor also learned to weigh itself.

'Don't worry, sir. My men are on their way. They'll report back to you that they've captured him at once.'

I'd like to see it in action, not in a ...... report.

　Idi said in place of the timid Upobopo.

'Huh. It's a hassle, but it's fine. Then come over here.'

　He let out a cumbersome sigh and nodded.

　Volkinez leads me to the two of them.
