Episode Six: Rumors of Thieves - Before

Take only Ira to visit the Adventurer Guild.

The Adventurer's Guild in Imperial Capital was very busy.

A lot of people, because it's one of the reasons, but there's more tension among people in the guild than that.

The high tension was in the rumors they were making.

Rumors of the new emperor.

Until then, those who were only adventurers became emperors.

Being the same adventurer, there was no way they wouldn't be thrilled.

And their purpose was directed to 'How to Become Emperor'.

"Hey, are you still going to the labyrinth today"

"Oh, there's something in the labyrinth that can make you emperor."

"I'm famous for the fact that his party was energetic about the labyrinth offense. What am I supposed to get?

"I don't know anything about it! If we get to the bottom, we'll have a lead."

Bottom tier.

There rests the nucleus of the labyrinth, and if you can hold it, you can become the master of the labyrinth.

You can go to the bottom, as he says.

But there's no way the family's girlfriends would let that happen.

It is visible that when it reaches the bottom, it is crisp to be hit.

"You can't get to the bottom of them in the first place."

Ira squeaks just a glimpse of the adventurer heading into the labyrinth.

I agree, but I don't want you to tell me where there are so many adventurers who dream of being a part of it.

"May I?

Line up and approach the counter with the receptionist.

"Yes."

"Can I get some information?

"... you too"

The receptionist offers a bunch of paper as she exhales.

I checked and it was a map of the labyrinth.

"Uh..."

"Different?

"No, sir."

The purpose of our visit to the Adventurer Alliance is to gather some information about the thieves.

It's no surprise that the Adventurer Guild is making a dossier summarizing the damage done so far, etc. I was going to find what the thieves were after from them.

Unfortunately, Katrea, who was based in Imperial Capital, has been too busy to visit the Adventurer Guild lately.

That's why we've got time to go.

Sylvia and the three of them have been asked to gather information all over the city.

"I'm sorry. I've been a bunch of adventurers lately trying to get to the labyrinth by listening to the adventurers who have become emperors... I'm sorry"

"No, I can't help it in such a busy situation."

I should have come avoiding the busy hours. There were plenty of people in the guild.

There seems to be a lot of exchange of information going on, many dreaming adventurers.

"There are a lot of adventurers trying to get to the labyrinth, and that's the problem."

"Why not?

"There aren't many adventurers out there outside the Empire to crusade the demons"

Crusades are carried out regularly because there are soldiers in the Imperial capital.

But the only place they actively crusade is close to the Imperial Capital and near the streets used by many.

Imperial soldiers are rarely visited by people like deep in the woods, and demons who gain valuable material rarely crusade. Crusading such demons is the work of adventurers.

"The labyrinth is one of the reasons, but the Empire City today has a long line of snakes in front of the gate because so many people are visiting it from outside."

"I saw him too."

That was terrible.

If you seriously wait, it will take half a day.

I see what the receptionist wants to say.

"I mean, if you go outside, it's a hassle to go inside, so no one can take on the request that you need to go outside the capital?

"... Yes"

That's a problem.

That's not true, but there could be a demon outburst (stampede) due to leaving too many demons behind in the woods. If it happens in the present imperial capital, there can be damage to the nobility inside as well.

That would extend to Rio's supervisory responsibilities.

We should talk about this later.

"Would you rather run errands over here than that?

"Yes, sir"

The receptionist who was talking stupidity corrects his posture.

"We're gathering information about the robbery, but don't you have any information on the item you're after next time in your guild?

"Excuse me, can I check your rank?

"Why?"

"What you're talking about is a bandit bat, right?"

"Thief bat? Is that the name of the thief?

That's information I didn't get from Mr. Cattleya.

"Yes. It's a name I gave myself in the Adventurers Guild because it's troublesome to say that it doesn't have a name."

It is also impossible for Mr. Cattleya, who has not visited the Adventurers Guild, not to know.

"It was named after a thief spreading a black cloak over a black suit."

It was named "Bat" because it looked like a bat.

"I just don't know where the Adventurer Alliance found out they were calling it that, but since the last theft, the name has been used in the trailer, so a lot of people already know it."

"Really?"

Nothing stands out about what is a proper outfit to be called a thief.

"A bounty is already hanging on the burglar bat. It was just a matter of time since I've been working with noblemen to steal from them."

I wonder how angry a nobleman was about being stolen.

Apparently, there were adventurers who challenged the bounty for its purpose, but they got away where they thought they had cornered it, and after being flirted with, there were numerous objects that they had destroyed because of their rampage all over the city.

The destroyed objects were paid for by the Adventurer, and the shortage was replaced by the Adventurer Alliance.

Because of that, it had been decided that information would only be given to someone who really had the strength to catch the thief.

"Specifically, I can't give you the information if the Adventurer Rank is at least B"

Then there's no problem.

Show adventurer cards as evidence.

"What, A-rank!?

"Yes, I am."

"Please wait a moment"

The receptionist is checking again and again to see if the adventurer card is real.

"I'm sorry. It's real."

"You may not look strong, but you're a true A-rank adventurer."

In this case, it's an easy way to convince me to tell me about achievements promoted to A-rank, etc., but I defeated tens of thousands of Imperial soldiers who attacked me in the Adventurer's Guild in the Imperial Capital, and I can't believe I'm saying this.

But the receptionist convinced me only with the adventurer card.

"If you're an A-rank adventurer, it's fine. We will provide you with information."

The burglar bat had been witnessed many times escaping what appeared abruptly to be a place of treasure.

From the sightings at that time, the anthologist appeared in the Adventurer's Guild.

"What, this?

I also understand Ira's confusion when she saw the humanities.

Like the receptionist said earlier, he was spreading a black cape over a suit like a tuxedo, silk hat on his head, and his eyes didn't know what he looked like because he was covered in sunglasses.

This could not be described as a personage.

"This is still a desperate writer from fewer sightings. Even if a notice is given, it is basically sent to the person. The target is a prized aristocrat, so the Adventurer Alliance can never be relied upon beforehand."

Those people have their own fighting power.

I don't even have to bother calling for a new force to gather because the thieves targeted me.

But the alarm had taken its toll, and the treasures had been stolen one after the other.

"I have a summary of the damage I just know of so far, will it be confirmed?

"Please"

Let me check, but there's nothing legal about what I'm after.

If you dare, it means that all the victims are nobles and merchants with bad reputations.

It is now the property of the state, although some of the auction items it is targeting include treasures originally owned by reputable aristocrats and merchants.

As for the original owner, you might be able to confirm it if you ask Mr. Cattleya, but I don't want to get too annoyed with your hands, so it seems better to give up looking from that side.

"Thank you"

I'll thank the receptionist for showing me the materials and come back later.

What should we do now?

"You got a minute?

Suddenly, I was called out.
