We obediently showed our IDs
The guard askshere?"
"We're looking for works as adventurers"
We're still not sure whether this territory can be trusted or not
Thus, I' our real objective for now
"I see"
After hearing that, the guard operated a device with buttons in his hand
And then, four boards written with 『Pass』 came out of it
"Take these with youOne per personThese passes will be annulled if you go out of the highways, so keep that in o along now" gesture to us
It appears they're not going to check our belongings
"We passed through without a hitch"
Alht
"Even if the checks are stricter than usual, it seeo about it nor to worry about!"
Ruli and Iris were relieved too
However
"It's too soon to let your guard downThese passes have ic codes carved within"
I cast a spell to decipher theit is simple since I've seen this type before in my past life
"Code?"
"YeahI've deciphered it, and it readslike this"
I put the content of the code on the paper in h level adventurersSome doubtful part on motives174517 First Checkpoint』
"CautionIt's like they're suspicious of us"
"Maybe it's unusual for adventurers to work at this city?"
Alma looked confused as she said that
But her expression quickly turned bright
"Ah but, just getting suspected should be easy to deal with later right? Just got to work on some quests to make us look like the real deal!"
True, the code itself doesn't sound urgent
I don't knohat the nu from the location, it's probably the ti
However, unfortunately, we can't relax just yet
There's a bigger problem about this pass
"The problem isn't the content of the code"
"Not the contentWhat do you mean?"
"This code, you seeis done in the same method the demons employed in the pastThe technique used to carve the code in the pass is also not soic"
I show the pass to the girls
Ruli asks me in surprise
"But thatYou ave us these passes was a demon?"
"Nah, I've made sure that there were no demons at that checkpointI knew about the code the moment I saw the passes, so I went and analyzed their ic can escape 『Passive Detection』's long distance detection
However, the farthest person at the checkpoint back then was only 50 meter away from us
That little distance would still have shown ht be able to slip through the detection if they concentrate, but doing so would be as good as exposing theood thenWait, is it really?"
"It's notThe opposite even"
I look at the ain
YupThe coh that I don't think anyone is capable of reproducing it in this era where ic has declined so much
"Think about itYou need to hold the authority of the entire territory to give orders to checkpointsAnd since those checkpoints are equipped with these things"
"No way, you mean this entire Folkia territory is controlled by demons!?"
Alma raised her voice in surprise
"That possibility existsIt's also possible that humans received only the tools from the demons, so we can't say for sure yet"
For the ti toon the situation, weabout Folkia before we could accomplish our objective
Especially in this case, if this is really the deainst a very unique type of demon
Or rather, that's probably it
Would be nice if it's the pattern that's easy to handle
