Infinite Gacha

It's time to get to work, boys. Are you ready?"

Of course, Kashira.

No problem here either.

A group of a dozen or so sharp-eyed people were at the Royal Castle of the Racial Kingdom - which, compared to other countries, is a bit more the size of a mansion than a castle. ...... They were hiding in the shadows of nearby buildings as if to keep an eye on its back gate.

The mercenary leader calls out to his men who are waiting behind him.

They are racial mercenaries who are willing to do dirty work, hired for money by Godot of the First Prince of Claw faction and the Viscount Fite's legitimate sons.

Compared to other races, racial mercenaries have a harder time rising through the ranks and are generally lower in terms of arm strength and magical power, so they are not that strong in the mercenary society.

However, being "weak" was not always a disadvantage.

Because they are weak compared to other species, they are not subject to warnings, and because they are underestimated because of their race, they are able to jump into the bosom of their opponents and extract information from them.

And even though they are weak, they are not so weak that they are behind women and children of other species (if they are civilians with no combat training at a lower level, of course) because they make their living by violence.

Kidnap the other party's wife and children for work.

Sometimes, after killing the other party by taking them hostage, they would kill their wives and children who were no longer needed.

Because they are a mercenary group composed of races, they were required to produce results no matter how dirty their hands were.

That is why the men of the Viscount Godot family legitimate family caught their attention and requested them.

Because of his race, he would not stand out from other races even if he sneaked into the capital of the racial kingdom.

The leader of the mercenaries, who is willing to kill even babies, regardless of race or species, if it is his job, confirms in a whisper the nature of this job.

Our job this time is to create a diversion. Our job this time is to create a diversion. The queen of the race--that phrase will raise the client's eyebrows.

The mercenary leader shrugged his shoulders to soften the scene.

His attitude elicits a small laugh from his subordinates.

The mercenary leader continues his story.

If you can kill the race queen, you will receive additional money from the client. But our job is to make it easier for the client to move around amidst the chaos in the city and the mess in the castle. To do this, you will have to beat up and kill every maid, soldier, and servant, young and old, male and female, that you see. Wound them, make them scream, and plunge the place into chaos. But I'll show no mercy to the fools who forget their purpose, have too much fun, and miss the signal to retreat."

As the men nodded to their mercenary leader's words, a distant explosion sounded almost simultaneously.

As they looked up in the sky in time to the sound, they saw black smoke rising.

The mercenaries' gazes sharpened.

It's time. ......

At the mercenary leader's brief words, his men discreetly remove their equipment, which had been wrapped in cloth.

The mercenaries were wearing leather armor for ease of movement and were dressed like adventurers.

However, the swords, axes, and other weapons in their hands were more violent than those of adventurers.

They have a dangerous air about them, like bloodthirsty wild dogs.

While they are getting their equipment ready, the soldiers guarding the gate at the back of the house adopt an agitated attitude, startled by the sound of explosions, smoke, etc. suddenly heard from the sky above.

Next, a small door to enter and exit from the inside opens, and one of the soldiers calls out to the gatekeeper to come inside.

The gatekeepers enter inside in a panic and free the back gate.

(The client says he is confused by the explosion in the city. I was told to send soldiers to calm them down and attack where they were stretched thin. ......)

The explosion in the city did not continue except for a loud noise earlier.

The air was clearly inviting, but from our position, we could not pass up the chance to get inside.

The mercenary leader shouts to his men to be prepared.

Let's go. As planned, don't forget the objective.

Oo!

When the mercenary leader's words are answered by his men, the scouts move ahead.

They immediately take up position at the back gate and check the door through which the soldiers had just entered and exited.

It is unlocked and there are no traps.

The scout nods and steps in.

Everyone followed.

Stepping into the backyard, we could feel no sign of the castle being disturbed by the city's commotion.

It was not quiet, but it was chaotic, and there was no sign of commotion.

(It was too different from the situation we were told about before ....... But we can't back down from our position, it's too much trouble.)

Racial mercenaries who will take on any dirty job as long as they are paid.

Since they have already been paid in advance, there will be no work for them thereafter if they 'decided it was a trap and got scared and ran away' here.

The racial mercenary business is possible because they accomplish the client's work even if they have to take casualties.

Therefore, there is no way they can back down now.

At the very least, we need to kill two or three maids so that they can make excuses.

My men understood this, so they moved silently from the backyard to the interior, looking for their prey.

It would be meaningless for them to raise their voices now.

The maids and servants who would be the prey would run away, and the soldiers would gather.

It is meaningless until we can at least make the servants scream and cause a commotion.

Woof!"

I'm going to go to ...... Dogs?"　No. Is it a dog?"

As the mercenaries move to get inside, they encounter a dog in the backyard.

Large pointed ears, dull eyes, short legs. It had a long torso and a short tail.

I could imagine it walking from behind, tail wagging from side to side, very cute.

But unlike ordinary dogs, it has an angelic ring floating above its head.

At a glance, we can understand that it is not an ordinary dog.

If so, it is a dog," the mercenary leader said, "because I would be in trouble if asked what it is.

Such an angelic ringed dog, with its dull eyes and cute tongue, tells us.

Rai-shin."

What?

The angelic ring dog chants away in an austere voice that doesn't match its appearance.

When it pierced the opponent, it used an attack magic that paralyzed him for a while and stopped his movement.

The mercenaries, who had been fooled by the appearance and had been careless, were all easily paralyzed and fell on the spot.

Even if they had not been caught off guard, it would have been no problem for Ursch, the angelic ringed dog, to paralyze them and restrain them.

He is the "Level 5000 Lightning Chief Ulsh," the "Level 5,000 Lightning Chief Ulsh.

He had been dispatched to stop the "Master" class from attacking the castle, in case they were mixed in with the "Master" class.

Since the fairy maids are only level 500, they might not be able to resist and die if something should happen to them. Ursch was chosen because, if he did not speak, he would have the appearance of a pet dog, so it would not be surprising if the fairy maids had him with them.

(......It seems that there is no such thing as "Masta," which Mr. Wright was concerned about, in the mix.)

Ursch mutters in a reluctant voice in his chest and looks around at the fallen mercenaries.

At first glance, there is no sign of a "master" among them.

However, Ursch is not to be caught off guard and continues to pose as a dog in order to fulfill the instructions given to him by Wright.
