Scop Scopper Scoppest with Demon Eye King
Episode 17: The Choice Between Escape and Escape
"Free Kyle and Vita from slavery, too. I'll pay for it."
"I'll settle for you when the fight's over. Except when you show up impudent."
Bayu looked disgruntled, but he couldn't say anything back because he wasn't being told anything unjust. Surrounded by a large number of adults, I calm my feelings by stroking Kyle and Vita's head goodbye, who seem anxious.
"- So, sir. What do you want me to do? Are you going to kill each other with this force?
What I asked was a guy with a silhouette like a round, fat ball. He is one of Mirialdo's escorts. Behind it also stood a tall, overly skinny man with another escort.
"No, I know it's just impossible. Well, it's probably weaker than it was."
The two escorts are C-ranked adventurers named the Bellamys brothers. But all the adventurers I hired here are D, E rank. Unfortunately, it's not going to be a decisive force.
If we were to fight Sefina with this force, it would have been better to stay in the Chamber of Commerce and engage.
There were also numerous men and Lanza there.
"You don't have enough power to intercept. Let's head to the Adventurer Alliance for now."
"Wait a minute, please"
It's the spear man who was a leader among adventurers who's been talking to me.
"What's up?
"You better stop going to the guild"
"Why not? You don't have to worry about Alliance Quest. I'm gonna put you all back to sleep."
"Yes, no, that's an awesome story, but it's not. You want to hire a force, don't you? But now there's nobody in the guild.... No, it's too much to say that no one is there, but at least not one of the highly-ranked guys really is. I don't know... it's a really bad story..."
So the spear man gets stuck in words like it's hard to say.
"What do you mean? Clearly."
"... No, actually, the dungeon was attacked yesterday"
That's what the spear man saw Chirali and Roulier.
Roulier was worried about the eight hundred houses that had gone into the store, and he stared at the end of the house.
"Oh, 'Demon Mine', right? Apparently."
As I said, Miriardo also saw Roulier.
When Roulier checks the large gold coin in his hand, he knocks on the store as he decides.
Lanza decided to kidnap Rulier in the first place because she pinned these rumors in her ear.
A child with the title attacked The Demon Mine Cave.
The child seems to be a slave to Laseheima.
Lanza, whose deal with Lazeheima broke and was about to return to Rosoliek, extended her stay in Berg for a day after hearing the rumors. And investigating the veracity of the rumor, Roulier's whereabouts, the next day he executed the kidnapping behind him, pretending to negotiate the price of the slave with Laseheima again.
Miriardo, who had heard a series of stories from Lanza, naturally also knew about the dungeon.
But what does the dungeon have to do with being attacked and the absence of high-ranking adventurers?
I wouldn't have even gone to see the attacked dungeons in total.
"- So? What would you say if a dungeon was attacked?
"I don't mind being attacked, but the problem is then. There's been a mutation."
Miriardo opened his eyes with surprise to the words of the spear man.
"A mutation... is that a mutation in a dungeon? Is that really happening?
A mutation in a dungeon is when a dungeon suddenly changes its appearance one day.
Sometimes something can trigger it and it can happen suddenly without even triggering it, and the extent of that change can vary from relatively small changes such as "changing the type of monster that emerges" and "changing the internal path" to major changes such as "more hierarchies".
The only thing I can say uniformly is that mutations are extremely rare.
I can't help but be surprised at Mirialdo.
"I've never seen it before but it's definitely a mutation. Until now, a staircase had been created that led to an unknown hierarchy where there was a big pit called a 'garbage hole'. If you were a merchant, you'd have heard about it. A new dungeon or hierarchy is a mountain of treasure. Untouched chests and artifacts are also crunchy. It's all unknown, so it's a big danger. Well, that's why people who are confident in their arms are not here now diving into a dungeon."
"Is that what you mean," Mirialdo nodded with a serious face.
It was a bad thing.
This doesn't replenish your power.
".................. The Auvel family won't move?
"I ask the other way around, do you think it moves?
"Nah. Then the Episcopal Church wouldn't work any more..."
When Miriardo really had his head...
The air moved unexpectedly.
There is a slight hustle and bustle all over the city that was quiet.
But it's far away. So it wasn't the sound, it just felt like the air was shaking slightly.
All I barely understood was the direction.
But following a slight hunch, everyone who was on the spot moved their gaze.
Miriardo, the Bellamys brothers, the adventurers.
I draw my consciousness to you as if I were attracted to something.
And they saw.
Beyond the boulevard, which went too far earlier and is now far away.
Something hit the sky from the shadow of a standing three-story building.
From a distance, no one could see who it was.
But it seems that the distantly launched rice grain large object didn't fly directly above it, gradually increasing its silhouette.
The first thing I could recognize was color. I saw the red color.
shape next. I could see something like four protrusions.
And less than three seconds later, everyone realized who it was.
That was a person.
No, my torso almost takes a thousand cuts. That no longer takes the form of what I can call a person.
It's so close to reality to say odd chunks of meat.
The meat chunks that drew the elliptical orbit flew, crashing about twenty meters in front of them, like tomatoes slammed to the ground, crumbling and bouncing apart without a trace.
Is it the arms or the legs that are rolling while being sliced into cobblestones by inertia?
If it weren't for them watching the whole thing, you wouldn't believe what this red object was like to be human.
A hard object rolled down the cobblestone, distracted by splashing red flesh.
He made a sound with a caracalla, rolled to Myrialdo's feet, and stopped.
It was a plate- status tag of silver glowing metal wet in blood.
Myriad's shaking slightly. When you pick up the tag with your hands,
"Katze......"
Read the written name.
Then the adventurers, who had hardened as if they had forgotten to breathe, went out of their way.
"Or lend me...!
A spear man takes the tag from Myriald's hand.
".................. it's really katze"
To him grumbled stunnedly, Mirialdo asks.
"Who?
"... a C-rank adventurer. He's probably the best adventurer out there looking for you on Alliance Quest right now."
This means that the most powerful adventurer currently operating in Berg was launched into the sky by someone in the shadow of a building across that boulevard, dancing hundreds of meters with its momentum, falling here and becoming a piece of poor flesh.
No... I don't need to say "someone" etc.
There was only one person in their brain who seemed to be able to do this ridiculously.
"Hey! What are you gonna do, husband?
The Belamis brothers of the escort, who had so far stood somewhere taunted, also speak out as if in a hurry.
They are not in contact with Sefina at the Milliardo Chamber of Commerce.
Therefore, for the first time since then, I had understood the strength of the enemy and felt a sense of crisis.
The same goes for the adventurers around us.
They received gold from Myrialdo and were somewhere dreamy, not the noise where they were showered with cold water. They came to this stage and finally understood what Alliance Quest meant.
It wasn't if he was talking about running away or being a jerk. The Alliance Quest was sent out because it had to be done.
Together they were pale in a nightmare approaching reality.
It's not too late now. We should get Mirialdo. There was betrayal in the back of the adventurers' brains.
Myriad herself felt it on her skin.
That's why...
Mirialdo was looking at the other one the same way as usual.
Eyes staring in the direction where the enemy would be, glistened, rather even more lively than usual.
And
"- Okay! I've made up my mind. I'll definitely knock you down."
Mirialdo raised his mouth angle and said away.
"To be honest, I was hoping I could get away with being confused by the worst of it. Let's knock it down now."
To the lively and expressive Myrialdo, the adventurers turn their gaze suspicious of sanity with a true and opposite look on their face.
"... in your words. I can't do this. I'm sorry to say this, but... let me down. Of course I'll pay you back."
"Come on, calm down."
"Can you calm down...... ugh! Damn, that was sweet......! How could I have doubted the Alliance Quest...... I'm really sorry for you. At the very least, I promise to give up my guild quest. I can't fight this many monsters. We run away."
The spear man's words were stubborn. The sincerity of at least missing out on Miriardo. The other adventurers nod and agree. But Mirialdo,
"I don't approve of abandoning my job. But don't get me wrong. You don't have to fight. You don't even have to escort me."
I don't know what the released word means, and the spear man frowns at me.
"... what do you mean?
Mirialdo laughed niggardly.
"You said you'd run away. Run for it. I'll order you to run. But let me specify the direction of escape."
The adventurers gave a look like "no way". They will have Sefina as they are, looking in unison in the direction.
"Uh, no, no. It's that way you guys run away."
But contrary to the adventurers' expectations, it was east that Miriardo pointed.
Beyond the bridge - it was the direction of the main city.
That is the opposite direction from where Sefina would be.
Without being told, the adventurers who were trying to escape there are taken aback.
"Now let me ask you. Return your money and run away as a coward? Run as requested as an adventurer with a million larks. You can choose whatever you want. What do we do?"
Miriardo laughed all over himself.
Just then, the doors of the eight hundred houses behind me opened.
The four children who came out of the eight hundred house scratching red vegetables similar to tomatoes looked at the red stains on the cobblestone, what is it? And I was leaning on my little neck.
