87 Episode 87: Its All Over (1/2)

”Then let's start an emergency meeting”

In one room of the castle of the king's capital were many nobles and knights, and even the figure of the great man of the temple.

They are all leading aristocrats in key positions.

And in this, I, Wolves, the leader of the King's Capital Adventurer Alliance, can't stand to be alone.

The meeting was held rapidly after reporting to the country the events of the astonishing zoo in the ruins behind the banned area, the former mine.

Well, the contents of the report are all suck like a joke if you read them seriously.

”Guild Leader, may I have an explanation?”

I told him so, for fear many, His Majesty the King.

The minister, who is originally a minister, will conduct the meeting, but this time it is an emergency meeting, so there is nothing strong about it.

Well, I gather all the leading nobles regardless of faction, so I guess it's because I can rub it in too much format.

But thanks to His Majesty's reckoning, it's not all bad because I, the civilian, am allowed to speak in the conference room.

”Everything ends in the emergence of a large number of high-ranking demons from the forbidden realm...”

And I will report the fate of this incident in front of the nobles.

◆

Upon completion of the report, the meeting room became noisy, as expected.

”He said he was a demon!? Wasn't that the existence of a fairy tale!?”

”Who are the S-rank adventurers who did the research ahead of time!? When it comes to chimeras, it's like the Knights need an army, right? Is it true you knocked that down with just a few people? What kind of operation did you crusade? If you ask me, it was those adventurers who crusaded the demons!?”

”Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait

”No, more than that, the problem was that ancient chimera manufacturing facilities were available! With this, we can have an inexhaustible army of chimeras in our country!

Um, the original problem was the report on the resolution of the mass appearance of demons.

Nevertheless, this discovery is not something that can be dealt with by a very adventurous guild alone.

I wonder if that was the level of concern at which the State would be obliged to report.

”Eh, adventurers, Bahamut, etc. I don't care. Rather, the problem would be with demons. Are you sure that was a demon? How strong are you alone if you were a real demon? This incident is the first time we've encountered a demon in our time. We must gather the demon's information before it is known to another country.”

And one of your nobles will ask me questions.

Well, if the natural enemies of mankind that were thought to be legendary existed, it would be quite an important project in defence.

”Baron Norman, has Sir not heard the report of the Inner Ocean demonic investigation? There would have been reports of the demon being confirmed in the case, right?

”Yes, no, I heard the story, because I thought it was navy made up bullshit...”

The crusade of the giant demon that appeared in the inner ocean and the case of the demon and giant warcraft that ended it is information I am grasping as well.

It's a huge incident where a giant demon plaguing a seaside country affected even the inner ocean, and the existence that caused it was that demon.

Fortunately, with the help of the highly-ranked adventurers who accompanied us, we can say that we were fortunate to succeed in capturing the demon before he was fully rampaged.

And the demon's personality will be managed jointly with the country by the sea... should have been.

But while transporting the demon, the legendary demon, Bahamut, suddenly appeared, ending in a tragic result that every ship he was transporting would be taken away somewhere.

Therefore, from the nobles who never saw the demon in person, there was no reason why the very existence of the captured demon could seem suspicious.

Most importantly, the situation changed when the ship that was taken away with him was reborn into an insane being called a ship that would fly at a later date and returned to the Wang Capital.

Somehow the ship flew across the kingdom.

Wangdu is a fuss up and down from nobility to civilians.

The noblemen who did not know where the ship belonged came to the Alliance with an unscrupulous request to investigate that flying ship.

I thought that there had been such an incident that the existence of the demon man could no longer be overridden with bullshit, but I don't see how those people who had not seen the real thing caged in the territory or the mansion felt.

And even without trying, this sight took the form of emerging differences in the ability of the nobles to gather information.

The aristocrats, starting with Baron Norman, who found out that he had fallen behind in gathering information at this meeting, are going to be in trouble.

Calm down, all of you.

His Majesty raised his voice to quell the meeting because the venue was chaotic.

That's the word of His Majesty the King, the nobles who stood like chicks whispered beautifully.

”First of all, the problem of the mass appearance of demons that triggered the agenda has been solved, isn't it, Guild Chief?

”Yes, you're right. Many dangerous chimeras and vicious demons were crusaded by the work of S-rank adventurers belonging to our guild. I was wondering if you would have understood the power of our guild if you had looked at the chimeric material we delivered the other day.”

”Um, I've checked the remains of those chimeras. I can't believe we can crusade over a few dozen meters of chimeras in a small group, that's the S-rank adventurers.”

His Majesty decided not to falsify my report when he saw the name of the giant chimera, the prototype chimera, which he had brought in without daring to dismantle in order to increase the credibility of the report.

”Captain of the Knights, how threatening would you say the Knights would be if they were a few dozen meters of chimera?

”Ha, it's a common chimera, and your body length is roughly 3-6 meters. Chimeras need at least three platoons because they are very troublesome organisms with multiple organism abilities. If it fits the Adventurer Guild rating, it's something like B-rank. But special individuals with special abilities will jump the danger, so increase the number of troops to 7 platoons, and also mobilize wizards and monks to become A-rank. Individuals over 10 meters will just be huge and the threat will jump. This one still equals the A-rank. The required power needs to be increased proportionally to the size.”

And here's the knight captain putting in a beat.

”It just would be more of a threat than that if it were a few dozen meters of chimera. It's an unprecedented size in the past, and as far as reporting goes, it's an individual with special abilities equal to magic. Definitely equal to or above the S-rank demons, I was wondering if it would be the level to send the Knights out in total and summon the court demon mentors and church monks to finally be opponents...”

Hear what the Knights chief has to say, and the air in the place freezes.

”So you're threatening to line up with the top dragons.”

”Exactly.”

Once again, the venue is wrapped up in His Majesty's remarks.

”Dragon...!?”

”Have the ancients been able to create so much existence artificially!?”

”Everyone, there is no need to be afraid. Commander Guild, the chimeras created by the demons and ruins were all crusaded by the S-rank adventurers, right?

”No, the demon has been crusaded, but I can't say for sure that I won't examine all the caves for the chimeras.”

”Um, then let's say the Knights also participate in the remaining demons and chimera crusades. However, after collecting all the objects obtained from the site, the hole connected to the mine shall be sealed off and the mine shall be reopened in the future”

As a result, there will be no more benefits to disposing of mines as hazardous areas than crusading relic demons and chimeras that were responsible for the emergence of high-level demons.

This would be a reasonable idea.

Well, in fact, I suppose the state is going to monopolize the ruins without letting the adventurers in on the grounds of the resumption of state-owned mines.

There is no problem because the guild will also be given the benefit of site discovery on that.

It will also be a negotiating card for future problems.

Above all, it's just going to be a hassle where the Alliance has a monopoly on the technology to develop the chimera.

If it's bad enough for the country, it's a smart adult to honestly give it to the country for consideration and rights.

”But those are S-rank adventurers. If you ask, will they manipulate the powerful magic items they discovered in the ruins or the lost magic that resurrected them from ancient knowledge? Thanks to the lucky gathering of fierce men to use those powers in this case, we were able to overcome the unsolved crisis. Damn, that's a good idea. It's what brought all those fierce men together. Leader of the Alliance, I praise you.”

”Ha ha, it's in your words.”

Well, only one of them really sucks.

You won't believe me anyway, so let's shut up.

Honestly, the more I hear about Bowes, the more I can't believe my ears and my sanity.

”But the presence of a white calamitous warcraft that has left both the ancients and the demons is also a matter of concern. If we can take advantage of the Chimera Development Facility, it will greatly help our people's future.”

”Yeah, you're right. If S-rank adventurers can produce enough chimeras to struggle, our military advantage over other countries will be immeasurable.”

And I agree that one of the nobles who had earlier disputed Baron Norman would slip by.

There's an S-rank that beat those chimeras lightly, so they're not doing too well.

”Uhm. But it's either the undead who kept researching in the ruins, or it bothers me that the person disappeared”

Well, I'm curious there, too, because I only found that out after everything was over and I got a report.

”What, only the undead are united. If you flipped an anti-flag against our country, all you have to do is force it to purify it with the magic of the exorcism of the monks.”

and the knights and priests laughing and chesting, but don't you think about the new chimeras that the undead would produce before then?

”Besides, white disastrous warcraft doesn't even exist in ancient heritage. Don't you even need to take it too seriously? Besides, aren't you saying that even the chimeras created to defeat that warcraft were defeated by both adventurers? Our Knights of the King's Capital is a gathering of knights who have worked out for a long time since this country was created. No matter how strong the Warcraft is, it is just one warcraft. If we hit it with all our prep, it's not enough to be afraid.”

”Yes, Your Majesty. Legendary presence without demons in the first place. Although it was real, it doesn't necessarily mean that they are strong enough to be truly told by legends. Isn't this also somewhat of an opponent that a few adventurers could have won in bundles? Our knights have no reason not to take them down.”

The Knights start talking about their usefulness by pulling the adventurers down here all the time.

You knights are going to be able to fight in the cave with heavy fucking armor and spears!

I'm sure your strength can only be achieved with numbers, horses, and magic support!

Don't think of the strength of adventurers in the same way you are!

Nevertheless, it's a lot of trouble for me, the head of the guild, to utter a statement denying the Knights.

I only have patience here.

I told him what to tell him, and then let's just focus on how to make this boring and troublesome meeting easier.

We were relieved that all the problems had been solved, but a few days later, we still didn't know that the chimera development facility inside the site and its materials were going to make a fuss when we heard that they had disappeared.

I'm home.

”Welcome back, brother!

”Oh, welcome back.”

Gyro will welcome us home after work.

”Hey brother, what was your request for nomination for the S-rank?

As soon as I get back, Gyro, you'll be talking about souvenirs. [M]

”Look, I'm tired on my way home from work, so at least let me sit in the chair.”
