Welcome to the Monsters' Guild ~ The Strongest Group Who Did Everything, for a Price ~

"Ooh, it's Rise! You did well!!"

A muscular old man greets Rise, who was taken by the knights to former General Muldo's mansion.

The scars and deep scars engraved on his face make him feel that he has survived many years on the battlefield.

And his body was old and still tough, and he was so forged that he could be sure that even when he went to the battlefield again, he would be able to work with the lion quickly.

"Long time no see, General Muldo."

Yes, this old man was once Rise's boss, former General Muldo.

"Fu haha! That's tough! Easier than that! Anyway, Noon is a former general!

Former General Muldo bangs Rise's shoulder with a luxurious laugh.

"Ouch! Hey, it hurts, General!

"Oh, I'm sorry, it's been a long time since I've seen a lovely man!

Rise looks at former General Muldo as he rubs his back but corrects his spine.

"So why did you call yourself?

Rise didn't think his former boss had invited himself to his own mansion just because of his subordinate nostalgia.

Because he knew his former boss well, he was convinced that there was always some intent in his actions.

"... Hum, what are you talking about? Enter the mansion but good. Oh yeah, let's take the demons of Rise to the courtyard. It's wide and stretchable. Prepare fresh meat too!

To the words of former General Muldo, the demons of the beast system raise their joyful ambitions.

Former General Muldo used to plug meat into the demons because of the lack of money since Rise was a member of the army.

Anyway, even if the army would change the meal of the demon, it was only a minimum daily meal, and snacks and other meals had to be paid for at Rise's own expense.

As a result, Rise was always in short supply.

The cash monsters remind me of what I miss about former General Muldo, who gives me meat with generosity.

"I am at your service, Lord Rise."

Declare that the Dry Adds will not lean next to Rise and leave the Lord alone.

Even if the opponent is a former boss, it's basically because demons and demons don't act differently.

For demons, demons are partners and powerful escorts.

I also knew Dryad had a back guard in Rise, but if you still imitate that the ostensibly Lord's guard would be absent, it would be insulted as the low loyalty of the demons to Rise. Besides, if there is no escort, but there is something like repelling the assassin, they will understand that the escort behind them is protecting Rise. To avoid that, DryAdd needed to be beside Rise as an escort.

"Hmm, that would be good. Follow us both. Hey, show his demons to the courtyard. Just act like you have fresh meat."

"Certainly."

The maids come to guide the demons of Rise. They don't see any shards in their fear of the demons of Rise.

That is also because the maids were used to treating the demons, as Rise was often invited to former General Muldo's mansion.

Most importantly, it was also an event that fuelled the sense of crisis of General Frieda, who was aiming at the status of General at the time, but which the Rises had no reason to know at the time.

"Come on, drink up! I picked up some good tea leaves. I'm proud of you! I don't know where the tea leaves are. I leave that to my servants!

A former general who makes other, entrusted remarks by the time he is clear. Perhaps this is how messy it is with someone who stands on top of a stranger.

"I've got some magical water for Miss Dry Ads prepared by our wizard! Have fun."

"Thank you very much."

Dry adds, offered a glass of water at his feet, hits the foot in his skirt when gracefully thanked.

Because her feet are roots in plants, this is the normal way to drink to get moisture.

"Oh…… that's a very aromatic magic. It's an intense magic that only wizards who are good at water magic can use."

Dry adds show his swinging face while saying something like a gourmet report.

The appearance also appeared as if he was relaxing in a whispering hot tub.

"So, on what business did you call us?

Rise never laid a hand on the tea and looked his former boss straight in the eye.

Former General Muldo also looks directly at Rise when he exhales gently.

"There are disturbing signs in the Wang Dynasty. Frieda hasn't noticed because of the dawn of a power struggle, but there is undoubtedly some disturbance in the Wang capital. That's not funny, either."

"On what grounds?

"A look."

To a simple answer Rise distorts his face. That's not because former General Muldo's rationale is ambiguous.

Instead, the meaning was the other way around, and when Rise was military, his unpleasant hunch based on former General Muldo's account boasted an amazing median rate.

For this reason, none of the men who took up his duties under the former general suspected him.

"You can't count on Frieda. Rise, I'm sorry, but would you do me a favor? Monsters Delivery store owner requested an urgent business trip."

That was a virtually irrevocable order by a former boss.

Rise Gennari remembers receiving numerous unscrupulous gestures from former General Muldo during his military years.

But if I refuse this, the situation will be worse, so if I don't have a choice to refuse, I will become even more gennalised.

"Former General Muldo, we are now facing a very difficult problem that needs to be resolved as a top priority."

"Then let's help solve that problem. Provide the people you need from your people."

"... uh, I've only brought the demons I need this time, so I was just wondering if I could help..."

"I don't care, I'm going to have a budget to pick up the demons I need. In Wangdu, the Mansion of Nong is used as a base of action, but it is good. Don't worry about the cost and expense of your stay."

It was Rise who asked if he could leave it to someone else to find a way to say no as conveniently as possible, but General Muldo offered me the assistance I needed so that I could not refuse one after another. "

"This case also involves the Church of Mother Earth God, so you will need to discuss it with the Church to pass the request"

"Okay, I'll leave you to it."

"…… I have a bad feeling. Then I can't deal with this either."

Rise exhales a sigh to his boss, who does not give in anywhere.

Because I can't even imagine Rise what to do with a vague request such as a bad feeling about the facts.

Enemies to defeat, no more problems to solve, I had no idea how poorly I would be detained by the King's Capital.

"There has been a case of people disappearing in the Wang capital. At first it was a civilian district in the slums and outer districts, but there have also been stories of noble sons and daughters disappearing recently. The nobleman's son is hidden because he is not the heir of less than two sons, but apparently the number of those who have heard the news is small. Among the victims is also a mix of nobles who are not fallen nobles like being sold to slave traders. If the kidnapping is carried out with any intent, not for financial purposes, we need to rescue it and solve the case as soon as possible."

"Uh, I think that's so important, why isn't General Frieda moving?

"I told you. At dawn of political conflict. If the son of a disappeared nobleman is the son of a hostile faction, he will either ignore it or refuse to search it for good reason, and if he is a poor or civilian, he will totally ignore it. If it wasn't a search request from a senior nobleman, it would have been silent."

"Wow."

Even though it was only for a few days, Rise is flabbergasted by the blatant civil discrimination and power orientation of General Frieda, who was his former boss.

"That's why I want you to look for people. Will you do it?

General Muldo will continue the conversation on the assumption that he will no longer be asked to do his job.

"So, what we have to do…… this time the problem is quite dangerous…………"

"If you will accept the request, pay 2,000 gold coins as a reward for success!

"I'll take that job!"

Later, it was only a matter of time before Rise regretted that he had lost sight of the money and failed greatly.
