“By any chance, does the six people include you, Young Master?”
As if he was confused, Nara mumbled. It seemed Priesia was also curious about this. She wiggled her eyebrows and asked.
“No. I’m not included.”
Riley started to explain about the one who could not be seen at the moment.
“The one who is not here is waiting at a place we promised to gather at.”
“A place we promised to gather at?”
“Of the six… This one was decided first.”
“First?”
“Even before Nainiae?”
“That’s right.”
It seemed the three people besides Nainiae were surprised. They had their eyes turned big as they stared at Nainiae.
“Nainiae… You knew about this too?”
“… Yes.”
“Do you know who it is?”
“I know, but… Yes… Won’t it be better to save this as the fun subject for later?”
Nainiae scratched her cheek and avoided answering. Riley also broke cold sweat and thought about the ‘red haired young man’ who was having a conversation with Abyss at Ansyrium. Riley was thinking about ‘the red dragon.’
‘I wonder what the two are up to…’
Riley was not sure about Abyss, but Andal was not liking the man, so Riley could only roughly guess that Andal was not going to sit quietly and become a good conversation partner with Abyss.
‘If we sit around longer, the letters ‘Ansyrium’ might disappear from the map. I think I should hurry before that happens.’
Even before something could happen because of Helena, Riley was having useless worries about half of the map needing correction soon because of Andal and Abyss. He folded his thoughts and said,
“Anyway, we will be moving right away to meet the remaining member. You packed your things right? I did say that it would be a brief moment in this world’s time, but we would be spending quite a while in the other side, so…”
Having heard his question, the four all looked at each other. They nodded as if they were ready. They all said at the same time,
“Yes!”
“Anytime.”
“By the way, who is the sixth person?”
“You’ll know that too when you get there.”
Riley looked at Nainiae and signaled with his gaze.
“Well then, I’ll open the dimensional portal…”
Under Riley’s order, Nainiae was about to open the dimensional portal to find the sixth part. However, she heard footsteps from behind her. She stopped the spell and narrowed her eyes.
“… Hey!”
The steps were not just one or two people. Not just Nainiae, but everyone else at the spot turned their heads toward where the voice came from.
“Is it those bastards? The ones who picked fights with you?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“They said they are from some merchant group. As if interfering with our work was not enough, they broke my Big Bro’s arm.”
Nainiae saw that they were a group who all wore unique desert fabrics wrapped all around their bodies.
“I don’t know which merchant group you all came from, but you cannot meddle with our business spot due collections.”
Of the group, a man who appeared to be the leader was holding a large metal club on his shoulder. He tapped his shoulder with the club as he walked to Riley’s group.
“Big Bro! Over there. It’s the brown-haired lass over there! She is the one who broke his arm!”
Men who appeared to be subordinates pointed at Sera and started to grind their teeth.
“Oh?”
The man with metal club on his shoulder looked at her. As if he was impressed, he wiggled his brows and said,
“She looks quite innocent? How…”
The man looked at Priesia and then Nainiae. The man’s eyes were filled up with greed. He started to grin big time.
“About this… I was thinking I was unlucky, but it isn’t really the case.”
The man raised the other hand that was not holding the metal club and flickered around his fingers. The subordinates behind him who were on standby all took a step forward with violent looks on their faces.
“Guys.”
“Yes, Big Bro!”
“Let’s let out our frustration today!”
“Huu huu!”
The men behind the one with metal club all started to laugh in creepy way.
