Chapter 146 Strongest Sage, Tests it Out

"It must be a mistakeIt's true that this monster was the most passable one up to floor 18, but it's not really that strong of a monster"

"No wellThe fact that it's the strongest up to floor 18 is already weird in itself okay?Did you really defeat this with just four people?"

"I didn't participate, so three people"

"UnbelievableAre you guysat that time?"

The branch head asked

He probably knewanythingJust watching"

"You didn't want to help thehI fully planned to help theh"

The branch head took a pen and wrote so that

I can't see what he's writing frouess by his muscle movements

The hidden memo is written with, 『If the report is to be believed, the monstrous ones are Alma, Ruli and IrisMathias, the leader doesn't partake because he's a healer』

Looks like they mistook me as a healer

And then the branch head smiled

"I understand the situationI actually don't, but I understandEither e're very grateful for having that ht away, however your reward for the subjugation will have to waitIt takes tiation to the city ruler, and for the reward money to trickle downDo you have any problem with that?"

"I don't"

We didn't defeat the monster because we took the quest, but it appears he wants to give us the reward regardless

However, since the reward comes from the city ruler, we probably shouldn't expect ed to safely (?) sell the materials

Afterward, we had a meal in a random store, and headed back to the inn

On the way back

My detectiontailed?

In order to ascertain that, I purposely took a back alley that we normally wouldn't have taken

"Huh? Was our inn this way?"

Aled direction

I reply her while taking care not to make it looks suspicious

"YeahThis route see that I concentrated on the continuous detection

It see usThere's no doubt that they're tailing us then

There are two groups of suspicious presences in total

Both of the to hide their presences

Their stalking skill's aout in the open at a place with a lot of people would have made them not look suspicious instead
