Chapter 52 (1/2)

Secret Society [Black Cat]

The society was called [Black Cat]

Their e quickly, like a black cat Weaving their way through cracks, they earned faith in being able to deliver cargo between countries

Though they should be called a company rather than an association, they were called an association because there were a lot ofits leadershi+p

Although the contents of their business holesome, the company director very rarely appeared in public Its executive staffs’ whereabouts were also uncertain

Above all, with their intelligence gathering and movement in the continent, they were really suspicious

Six top ers like that were currently in the capital city of Lemdria, a major power in the southwest part of the continent

“Yes, then the 3496th top sui~n!”

A girl with scarlet hair extending to her waist shouted that brightly with an excited feeling

“I’ll start froic used to cause the I studied And, that idiot Zeke was protected! The end!”

“Zekefed was? The hero was a ht? Why would that woman lover protect him?”

The person with a large build reclined against the wall as they asked

“Under investigation However, their group see toward the Istria area”

“Then, I’ down the the prince faction’s victory However, since the elder princess was held as a hostage, it doesn’t look like the single push was enough”

The one to say that was aa coe and co cane

The one in charge of the Istria region turned their gaze towards a dark skinned youth

“The dens of invasion However, I think they are building up th”

Everyone let out a sigh Then, the person with a large build raised their hand and spoke

“The southwestern region is already useless Labra is in a precarious state”

It was picked up in their last conference Now that the ee of power left was in Labra

Because the country had luckily gained its strength rapidly, their policy for the region was to leave it alone to go as it would It was fine to support them from the shadows

“As for the northwest, Cordova is still onslayer was invited, ere bluntly turned down”

A girl dressed as a man reported that in an incredibly serious tone

Then, the five’s gazed were directed at aat the round table

The secret society, Black Cat’s, leader

He opened his serious mouth

“King Hollyn suspended his invasion to the east, advancing toward’s the continent’s center”

Lereat man who expanded Lemdria’s monarchy into a superpower

With his desire for territory, even though he’d been ai for the seven-city alliance to the east for years, he did a major shi+ft in his policy

The Imperial Capital vanished, the empire His plan was to cut away some territory Or perhaps it would be better to say he aspired to

As the humans lost their anchor for the Millenniu role was necessary

Everyone recognized Le that

There was just one probleed, and who his successor would be afterwards was the problem

The crown prince was already participating in stately affairs, his ability was being displayed He was considered to even more capable than his father whose abilities in practical affairs were heroic

The probleest prince

It was too soon to say whether or not he would be incompetent or cruel

The probleht be even more capable

Even his father hadn’t drawn out of the seven-city alliance for many years after the area was invaded

When the panicked union begged for a peace conference, the king agreed to it There was a probleed that it was impossible to completely conquer the union

The capable crown prince and the capable prince Although the two of them had excellent relations with each other, ould happen when King Hollyn died? Just thinking about it was troubling

“For Lemdria, continue to observe”

The company director continued

It was like his soul had worn out, his voice eak despite being young

Believing that the conference had ended with that, the girl into raise her hand

“The person who cleared the Dark Labyrinth left, should we investigate?”

She was young Aest To be precise, hers was the only appearance that e

Therefore, her curiosity was easily drawn As for greeting the dragonslayer, that was her own decision

Be that as itin those talents that stood out, so it could be said she did well

“It’s not really necessary If the person is related to Cordova, it will be necessary to investigate their h”

The director judged so However, the difference in his sensitivity to infor difference between hi

The conference ended Not a single serving of tea had been prepared during the conference, but that was how it usually was

“So, with that”

The youth with brown skin, the Great Sage Azelford, disappeared

“Next time then”

It was the sae as well, they calic unseen on this continent

“Troublesome… Well, see ya”

The scarlet-haired girl also left by way of teleportation ic

“Then director, take care of yourself”

The too-serious girl dressed in

The ree-built man and the director, who placed his elbows in the table while covering his mouth with his hands

“Hey, Yamato”

The large man called out to the director

“That posture, won’t you stop it?”

“Why? Shouldn’t you be saying that a posture like this fits a great man like me?”

Right, he said that about himself

It was foolish It was simply youthful passion
