As the residents of the city look in
the direction of the rising smoke, Renka uses her <Eagle Eyes> to scout
the area around the collapsed building.
Renka sees the person who seems to
have caused the collapse casting a spell on the residents of the city.
The sight is so horrible that Renka's
fists tighten.
"There's a wizard on the
rampage. He's attacking the people of the city"
"What!?"
Alvin's eyes widened at Renka's
words, and Milis covered her mouth with her hand in disbelief. Shinji, who put his
hand on Renka's shoulder after she finished using the <Eagles Eyes>,
opened his mouth.
"First, we need to go to
the adventurer's guild and meet up with Emily and Akane. We adventurers must
have permission to fight in the city"
"......I know. I'm not jumping
out of my skin. Everyone, hurry up!"
Adventurers are not allowed to fight
in the city except in emergency situations such as catching thieves or
kidnappers. Because adventurers' main job is to fight monster outside the city,
while it is the job of the guards, and the soldiers who serve the country, to
fight inside the city and protect the residents.
After that, Alvin and the others ran
in a straight line to the Adventurer's Guild.
Seeing from the distance, they saw
that the residents of the city were gathered around the Adventurer's Guild.
Because, in case of emergencies like
this, the national organizations such as the Adventurer's Guild and the Magic
Guild would explain the situation.
Weaving through the crowd, Alvin and
the others entered the Adventurer's Guild and looked around for Emily and
Akane.
Inside the guild, a good number of
adventurers were gathering, and the building was filled with a tense
atmosphere.
"Shinji! Alvin, over
here!"
Alvin and the others joined Emily and
Akane as they heard Emily's voice waving at them, jumping up and down in the
corner of the guild behind the crowd.
"Thanks God, you two are
fine, right?"
"Yes. We've been in the
guild all along, so we're fine"
Shinji let out a sigh of relief as he
saw the two of them.
"Master! There's a wizard
on the rampage in the entertainment district!"
"It's not just that.
There are other dried up corpses walking around. It looks like the work of a
succubus"
"Oh, no. There's still a
succubus......?"
While Emily waited for Alvin and the
others, she gathered information from the guild staff. The adventurer's guild
is also scouting the area with <Eagle Eyes>, and has confirmed the
presence of rampaging wizards and moving corpses.
Seeing the situation, the
Adventurer's Guild determined that the ruckus was caused by a succubus. And
warned adventurers not to head into the entertainment district without
permission.
"It looks like the guards
and the temple will shut down the entertainment district. So we're going to
have to wait until the guild ask us"
"Yes, because when facing
succubus, quality is more important than quantity"
"I know it's the right
thing to do, but it's frustrating me......"
Alvin clenched his fists in
frustration at Emily's words. In the meantime, Shinji had no choice but to wait
for the situation to move.
He can't go to the entertainment
district to take credit when the guards and the temple have already moved in
and started the blockade, and to begin with, arbitrary actions can be blamed
but not praised.
Also, if he takes credit for his
actions, his arbitrary actions may not be questioned, but if he ends up just
stirring up trouble at the scene, his reputation will be ruined.
Shinji does not like to make such a
risky choice.
A grim silence prevailed.
The only sound was the footsteps of
the Adventurer's Guild staff moving about hurriedly, and time was ticking away.
Bang, before long, the door to the
Adventurer's Guild opened.
"Excuse me"
Pino Mazzola, accompanied by two
guards, entered the Adventurer's Guild. Pino's gaze met Alvin's as he moved to
look around the guild for someone.
As Pino walks over to the
receptionist at the Adventurer's Guild, he starts to talk about something.
The sudden appearance of one of the
heads of the magic guild drew the attention of the adventurers in the city, as
well as Alvin and the other members of <Running Wolves>, who watched the
exchange between Pino and the receptionist.
"All of the <Running
Wolves>, may I have your attention, please!"
Alvin immediately reacts to the
receptionist's loud shout.
“Yes! Let's go, everyone"
Alvin's words were met with nods from
everyone, and they hurried over to Pino and the receptionist.
"Everyone from
<Running Wolves>, I have received permission from the client, Pino Mazzola-sama,
to speak to you here due to an emergency situation. He would like to make some
changes to the request. ......Please Mazzola-sama"
"Umu. It is fortunate
that all of you have not left the city. So, I would like to suspend my request
and ask for your help in resolving the current disturbance. You have a proven
track record of defeating succubus, and your help would be invaluable"
These were the words that Alvin and
the others had been waiting for.
Alvin looked at Renka, Milis and
Shinji and they all nodded immediately. They all shared the same desire to
intervene in this mess.
"Of course! Leave it to
us!"
Alvin's motivating voice echoed
through the Adventurer's Guild.
