「Fu~u~n……」(Rena)

  Rena rented a new book at the library, depositing a stupid security deposit (Book is expensive)

  The author is MiAMi SatoAdelLe, an up and coming favorite writer of Rena.

  「Scavengers and golems, unlike other monsters, are not hostile to humans, aren’t they?

  Mile, what do you think of this?」(Rena)

  「Ah, ahahaha, Yes!

  Umm, that’s right……

  I think so, given the recent events.

  In fact, we aren’t always under attack.

  It’s probably because we aren’t like other hunters, who suddenly attacking them at the beginning. We have had friendly contact. But that’s not the case with ordinary monsters……」(Mile)

  Mile was astonished by Rena and replied with a safe answer in a hurry.

  「Well, even though that’s true……

  However, I also think that it was because you were there, Mile……」(Rena)

  Hearing Rena’s reply, Mile gasps *Gikuri*

  「But, that was……」(Mile)

  「Right (desu yo nē)……」(Pauline)

  「Right (sōda yo nē)……」(Maevis)

  Pauline and Maevis follow after Rena.

  「That was……」(Mile)

  「「「The secret of my family!」」」(Rena’s Trio)

  「Gulp *Giku*, *Giku*」(Mile)

  Mile was worked up with 3 girls’ attack in succession

  However, after everything they went through, Rena’s trio believed that Mile is the “Beloved person” for the golems and scavengers. And by accompanying her, they were “judged to be friendly partners”


  「However, it can only be applied to the natural idiot outside the scope of people.

  If you ask me, I’m not envious at all……」(Rena)

  「I don’t want that, I guess」(Pauline)

  「Me too……」(Maevis)

  Maevis and Pauline answered Rena’s murmur reflexively.

  「Eh……」(Mile)

  Mile is stunned.

  「Wh…… what……」(Mile)

  And Mile is exploding.

  「WHAT’S WITH THAT~TTTTTTTTTTTT?!」(Mile)

  ＊ ＊ ＊


  Midnight.

  The plants also sleep, 3 o’clock.

  In the dark, books were taken out one after another from the library shelves and lined up on the desk.

  Then, the book’s pages are turned at high speed and then the book returned to its original position.

  There was no human figure, and it looked as if the book were dancing by itself. But if you look closer, a large insect-like thing carried the book and turned the pages.

  Then, each page was captured by the eye lens and recorded.

  And after that “insect-like thing” apparently finished today’s portion, it cleaned up the books properly, it walked out of the way through the gaps in the building, Then it flapped its wings and disappeared into the slightly bright night sky……

  【※※※※※※.……】(Scavenger)

  It’s a bug-type research machine that infiltrates a human town to investigate the situation of “human beings”, the most populous human species.

  Information from books is one of the information to bring back.

  The book explained that the scavengers and golems, which seem to be viewed as a kind of demon to human species, are not monsters that conflict with human species and are different humanoid, even coexistence is possible.

  It was an enlightenment book in the form of a story.

  【※※※※※※.……】(Scavenger)

  The scavenger then gave instructions to the investigation machine bug.

  Priority should be given to other books written by this author.

  The author’s name is……

  「.……Do you think I can believe this?」(Boss)

  「No. We just report the facts.

  Whether or not the person receiving the report believes our report isn’t our responsibility」(Merchant)

  This is “that”.

  It wasn’t a trial so he didn’t have to convince the other person to believe what he was saying.

  Judging the accuracy and credibility of the report contents and how to use the information wasn’t by the investigators at the end but by the superiors of the information department, that is, their boss.

  「.……」(Merchant)

  However, there is no point in ordering an investigation without believing in the report of the investigator sent by himself.

  And there is no other information that denies this report. On the contrary, some incomprehensible information that can’t be explained at all. But if he believes in this report, all the pieces fit together and are understandable. That is……

  However……

  「Can you believe this~sssssssssss?」(Boss)

  Mile’s group hasn’t said anything yet. So, no-one was informed.

  But for those who work for the royal palace, they were assigned a mission to carry out research.

  To report all the information that they got from the survey, that’s a duty to their country and proof of loyalty.

  Unlike the hunters’ personality, which only taking care of the escort request.

  However, this information has nothing to do with the research mission, the hunters don’t have to report it.

  Furthermore, disclosing the hunters’ personal information, abilities that you witnessed during the request is prohibited. So they can’t report it, not even to the noble or royal family, if they ignore it, they will receive some kind of punishment.

  It may be political by the Hunter Guild or personal by the Hunter. But both sides have agreed and it has become common sense. If you break it, you will receive some kind of “retribution”.

  As a result, the merchants couldn’t report about Mile’s storage magic, and, of course, the underground events that only “Red Oath” knew the details……

  Even without them, it was enough for the boss to yell “unbelievable, such a ridiculous story”.……

  「The demi-people temporarily occupied a certain place for some purpose……

  I understand this.

  And when they found it was a “false alarm”, then they withdrew.

  I also understand this……

  But, “Ancient Dragon’s Villa”! What the hell is that?!」(Boss)

  The boss shouts.

  However, it was a strategy that was implemented with the budget and personnel allocated to the plan.

  And the precious resource “time” that passed during the operation couldn’t be recovered, no matter how much money was deposited.

  So, of course, this result must be reported as it is.

  The boss scratched his head thinking, but he didn’t get any idea.

  After that, “a flock of mysterious fire-poles flying up from the rocky mountains of the empire to the sky”,

  “Imperial forces and supply departments fell into turmoil, halting most military operations”,

  “There seems to be a group of troops praising the Saintesses in the military”


  Various other uncertain information is brought in causing him much more confused……

  「.……Geez, please forgive me already……」(Morena)

  Princess Morena is crying while saying so.

  That’s right, it’s about Marcella’s Trio, the “Wonder Three” escaped. They officially got the princess’ special mission, so, she couldn’t escape responsibility.

  As the main offender who planned and guided the girls, she was punished by her parents, the King and the Queen, her big brother, her little brother who were interested in Marcella.

  And many aristocrats who were aiming for Marcella to be his eldest son’s wife also accused her.

  As a result, her pocket money was reduced by 50% while the amount of study time increased by 20%.

  She felt like her heart was broken as she was exposed to the cold gaze from her respected brother and her dear little brother.

  However, for the time being, there was plenty of room for excitement.

  The search for Viscountess Askham was coveted only by those who knew.

  However, they couldn’t move troops or spies in other countries.

  Besides, if you don’t even know where to look, they can’t expect any effective way to do it.

  But what about girls of the same age who have a long relationship with her and are familiar with her thinking and behavior patterns?

  No one would be wary of them.

  And as a novice hunter party, they could easily walk across the country.

  Yes, Princess Morena’s judgment is appropriate.

  Her wisdom and planning, as well as the ability to execute and succeed without being noticed by anyone, are highly evaluated as the “third princess of the Inquisitive”, “conspiracy princess”.

  Her reputation was secretly raising.

  「.……But that’s wrong!」(King)

  「If something happened to Marcella, just what are you going to do?」(1st Prince)

  「Dear sister (Ane~ue), you are horrible (Hidoi)」(Younger Prince)

  And today as well, she was scolded by her father, elder brother, and younger brother. Princess Morena was in tears……

  「.……And why didn’t you send any reports at all?!」(Morena)

  Saying so, the princess keeps hitting pillows today as well……
