”Eh? You want us to go to the border security?”
Rudolph gave the four Heroes a hted close to the security of the border so he wanted theo and confirm this
He asked Taishi+ Aoyao and confirm this and also if possible, Rudolph also ordered theate it
”Yes The border is close to the beast kingdom and the ocean so ferocious monsters rarely appear there Most do not tread on the huood opportunity I also want you to go and explore the human world”
The four were ecstatic upon hearing Rudolph's words because they had done many quests before but this was the first time they had received adistance
Therefore they were happy when they thought that they could go sightseeing
”Captain Vale is on anotheryou Well, I don't think anything will happen but if you do receive any new inforic tool I want you to head there right away Rest assured, I will prepare the fastest carriage for you”
”Yes, sir! We get to do so and also level on the way there so we're killing two birds with one stone!”
Taishi+ promptly said happily and Rudolph smiled
”I will also take care of your travelling expenses so I want you to take this opportunity to broaden your horizon”
The four happily replied to the generous Rudolph
A day had passed since Hiiro and co had e painter, Tenny From then Arnold and Muir had become pretty close to Tenny because they were all beastman
However Hiiro still felt dubious over Tenny's behaviour and couldn't trust hier didn't feel any ill intent froilant but didn't hound him
Right now they were having breakfast at the Guild but the adventurers who ca
The rumour was that a ferociousfurther information, Hiiro found out that many monsters appeared near the check point because of the environment it was in
People had observed giantout of the ocean to rest on land and bird-likeon the top of the check point
Someone had also observed a monster like that this tiuard If they left it alone then most the time, it ended without incident
”It's hard for the security guards too ~”
Arnold threw bread into his mouth and talked as if it was someone else's problem At that time he asked Hiiro about as on his mind
”Oh yeah, did you think about how you'd cross the border, Hiiro?”
”Ah, it's easy if I use ic”
”Ah ~ Yeah, yeah You're probably right”
Arnold said with a bit of sarcas However Tenny was concerned about their conversation and asked Arnold:
”Magic? Does Hiiro-kun not have a 《Visa》?”
”He doesn't Well, but I think Hiiro would be able to pass through the border with his ic”
Tenny's eyes narrowed at that moment but no one noticed Tenny's eyes immediately returned to normal and he turned towards Hiiro
”Eh, I want so see Hiiro-kun's ic ~”
”I don't intend to show it to you for free”
”Ahaha, I knew it ~ That's too bad ~”
Tenny often laughed and Hiiro felt that his smile was suspicious After that they spent their time idly and when they finished theirtowards the border
”What will you do now, Tenny?”
”Mhm ~, well ~ There's still so the border with you But I can see you off”
Arnold said to Tenny as sly, ”As expected of beastman bonds!” and he patted Tenny on the back Tenny smiled wryly as he received Arnold's pats Then adventurers once again came to the Guild
”Hey, did you hear? Those guys caain”
”I saw it There were three carriages froe》”
The adventurer's words pricked at everyone's hearts, especially Arnold and Muir Arnold had a terrible look on his face as he approached one of the adventurers, put a hand on his shoulders and turned him around
”H-hey, wait a minute!”
”Uoah!? What's with you?!”
”Be-《Beast Cage》is here? Where?!”
”Eh? Well, they're at the border Who the hell are you?”
Arnold dropped his shoulders, crestfallen while ht he was suspicious, swept Arnold's hand off his shoulder and quickly left in a bad mood
”《Beast Cage》, huh…? They come here sometimes”
”Really?”
Hiiro asked Tenny in return
”Yup This check point is on the border of the beast kingdoo through this place”
”In other words, it's the most suitable place for them to catch a lot of beastman”
《Beast Cage》, the organisation that loathed beastman, could easily capture as many beastman as they wanted if they went as far as the checkpoint The beast towards a tree se》benefitted fro use of the captured beastman
(Well, it's only natural that would happen but Old Man seems to be quite shocked)
It was no use, Arnold and Muir were both traue》 That's why they were shocked that those guys would appear when they were just about to escape to safety
”Don't you have any opinions on this?”
”Mhet in the way…”
Arnold also heard those words and his shoulders twitched
”Th-that's right It alorks out somehow And also…”
Arnold faced Muir She was anxiously looking at Arnold
”I'm not by myself Muir, Wi and Hiiro are with me”
”Yup!”
Muir nodded, receiving strength from Arnold's words
”However, it doesn't change the fact that it'll be tough to cross the bridge”
”H-hey you, Hiiro, I finally felt up to it”
