I want to protect you in this hand.

I interrupted Mr. Cullen's house, and the house of the Northern Territory Marquis, and that's what I got tired of crossing swords, performing just a little magic, and spending two days so full that I didn't even think about it. Above all, I was able to reunite with Aloys, Theodore and Abel.

"Are you getting smaller?

He said something like that, but I grew 5 cm properly. It's just that you've grown 10 cm. Isn't Mal only five centimeters long? Mal, don't take my head off. Because I won't hang up.

Between his studies, he was diving in a dungeon near Imperial City. There is only one dungeon that can be reached in an hour from the Imperial City. That's where I heard the story that bothered me. That's what Theodore said.

"We can't go far on a long holiday, we can only stay in a dungeon in the North Territories about Aloys at best. So I'm mainly going to a dungeon in Wangdu where I can go over the weekend, but they don't buy me little demon stones in the guild."

So, the adventurer, too, but what about the luggage boy, he can't make a penny, can he?

"I don't have a luggage system."

Yes, it was. Suddenly you're an adventurer...

"That's why there are so many adventurers who have left the army for some reason."

"Still, the two dungeons in Burkhardt weren't that rough."

Cyril said.

"Really? Maybe Dean's dungeon isn't either. But the Empire..."

"You've been diving in the dungeons a lot."

"I worked out in Merida. I didn't struggle with the dungeon itself, and if I showed strength, I wouldn't be so tangled up. But watch your back after the dungeon is a tough one."

"Not so much... I don't know what to do"

"Be careful with Cyril. I don't know what I'm capable of from the looks of it. I don't really want you to go. What, but you can't. When we get into school, we'll stick around for the weekend, so let's get as many people as possible. Maybe with my legs."

Theodore smiled bitterly. I asked.

"There were many adventurers diving in the shallow hierarchy in the Dungeons of Burkhardt. I mean, he was making money with a little demon stone. Are the Adventurers of the Empire able to do it? And then, what happened to the demons?

"Aloise, you look better around here."

"Right, Arsh, the powerless adventurer is shaken off, and I can't, so I think he's hurt a lot. Then whenever I go, I feel like there's a lot of demons. But I don't know the previous one, so I can't compare it. Whether that's the way the original imperial dungeons were."

"That's right, hmm. In the meantime, I'll tell Greg and Ted."

"Do that."

As for school, it was weird that childish Theodore moaned that there were so many childish guys.

The school says it's closed since July.

"Considering the round trip to Dean, you'd better wait in the Imperial City, 'cause you're waiting for a dungeon dive."

"Looking forward to it!

I said and promised a reunion.

I didn't take a day off, and the next day I left Empire City. I'll be back anyway. From the Imperial City to the Northern Territory Dean, take the carriage for a week, straight north. On the east side there are mountain ranges with dungeons, and on the west side the mountain ranges, which are boundaries with Kilik, the country of the horseback riding nation, can be seen far away. Summer, but white on the mountain.

"That mountain range is not only high altitude, but also wide. With a route, we'll be able to get through it in as little as a week from the empire, but there's actually no such route. Tough mountain. That's also why the Empire didn't attack us."

Mr. McKenny explained it to me. I followed him when I told him I had to arrange a demon stone. Of course, he's got the carriage out, so I'm not complaining. In the early summer breeze, the carriage heads north. Talking to Greg and Ted about an imperial dungeon, they looked difficult.

"The Alliance is supposed to buy out any little stone."

"That was the case in Merida, wasn't it? Rats and slimes are just good pennies. In the beginning, Cyril and Will bought us some bread."

"Did that happen?"

Ted said he was hanging up.

"One rat, one black bread. Don't be silly."

"They made me save half of it, so you're practically two."

Will made an extra addition to what I said. Mr. Ted blew it out.

"You let me, hoo, you've been laid on my ass since the beginning, you guys"

"It was laid."

Mr. Gregg also had a distant eye. Rude! Savings matter.

"Gohon, I mean, rats and small slimes are a deficit for the Alliance. Tons with a little demon stone, I guess. It's not a problem at all because it's more profitable than Medium Demon Stone."

"Right, but you're bound to buy anything out of the dungeon, which I took for granted, but if you don't..."

"Imperial capital, it might be worse than I thought."

Aloyce's grandfather was listening with interest to such a story. He is a former lord, but he was so gentle that he didn't think he was a muscle family. That's how I arrived in Dean. Dean is the same as Burkhardt, and the nearest dungeon is two days in the carriage. It was still an open city of creation with no walls. All were looked after at the Lordship Hall that day, and the next day, Mr. Greg, Mr. Karen, Mr. Ted's guild group, Mr. Noah's wake, and Mr. Jonas and Mr. Kuntz left for a nearby sixth dungeon.

"Mr. Greg, wasn't it your summer vacation?

"The most important thing is over."

Mr. Greg looked at Mr. Karen with tender eyes.

"But it's still summer vacation. Take a little heat. So you don't have to follow Jonas and Kunz."

"You can't keep your eyes open, can you? The deputy captain asked me to say hello."

"You muscle brothers. That's why I can't keep him up with the validation this time, but good luck."

Meanwhile, we, the Lamb, the Black Lamb, Mr. Thomas and his assistant, and eight former lords, headed to Dean's Medical Center. Mr. McKenny went to arrange for the demon stone.

We went to the medical school, we were out of line, not about 20 people. Beds lined up in large rooms and staff moving around hastily. My former lord's uncle said.

"It's been a long time since I've been here to inspect, but you're the same."

"Always so...... I wasn't in Burkhardt so much"

"There are many diseases in the North. It's free because the lord does it here. Anything nearby that suffers from this disease and can no longer be helped, unfortunately, is deposited here and only awaits death. At least you won't be abandoned."

Certainly not clean. But here was the despair of patients without hope, and of officials who could only be dropped off. It was the first time here that I realized that the disease was morbid.

"Arsh."

Has been annoying.

"Cyril"

I get a shoulder hug. Cyril follows me. Mal, Will will follow me. Nico, there's Bran. I got eyes on Mr. Thomas.

"Mr. Arsh, there is resistance to the Demon Stone, do you want to start by dividing it without"

"No."

I answered.

"In this number of people, it will take too long for the treatment to start. Let's divide it by severity. And we start treating people who are seriously ill."

Luckily, they don't have a patient called tomorrow either. 12 out of 56 people are so weak that they can't get up. Let's start with these 12 people who were already divided into separate rooms.
