Going to Another World on Your Own! ~a Story That Begins With a Not-so-sweet Upbringing - CH 237
The other adventurers began to stir at the inflexible remarks of Raiga, the leader of the A-rank team.
“Wouldn’t it be bad if it were true?”
“But since Raiga, who is in the A-rank zone, said it, I think it’s safe…”
“Wait, wait, wait. It’s too risky to leave the life and death of your team to someone else’s judgment.”
“But nobody died from the spell that little guy is talking about, even teams in the E rank band can avoid them, it seems we can dodge them well enough, right?”
“Certainly. Besides, there’s a corresponding risk on the Assassin’s Guild side, isn’t there? Isn’t the possibility of them using such a thing low?”
“Yes, that’s true… But depending on the situation, it may not be possible to avoid it. I can’t take the boy’s information on faith, but I think we’d better plan a strategy to deal with it, just to be on the safe side.”
“We don’t have much time before we have to execute the operation, right? If we start thinking about it now, we will only increase the chances of them escaping, okay?”
The leaders of the adventurers’ teams began to lose their composure as they exchanged their opinions.
“Everyone, please be quiet! The preplanned strategy was designed to accommodate unforeseen circumstances. This time, we need to quickly subdue the enemy and seize evidence, but with the scope of this boy’s information, I think it is possible to avoid having to use the instant death spell. Remember, we are here with you B-rank adventurers, the best of the best. Your efforts should be enough to deal with the situation.”
“That could lead to our total annihilation.”
Tauro knew he was in the wrong, but he persisted.
“Our team was lucky not to get caught in this spell, but it is not something that can be avoided by relying on luck. So let me make a suggestion. Let us participate in this operation. We have a plan to prevent this ‘range instant death spell’ from happening without getting in the way.”
Tauro suggested to Raiga.
“A strategy ……? I’m sorry to say this, but it’s obvious that teams in the E rank range will be dragging their feet if they participate in this operation. The team of the warding master is certainly attractive, but if the skill is only in the E rank range, it can only be said to be a hindrance. Thanks for the information, but I don’t think we can allow you to participate.”
Raiga seemed to have underestimated Tauro as an E-rank team.
He did not listen to him.
“…… Wait, Raiga. It wouldn’t be a bad idea to listen to what the boy has to say.”
Eikoku rebuked his leader’s shallow attitude.
“Damn! …… then explain what that strategy is.”
Raiga reluctantly complied with Eikoku’s suggestion and listened to Tauro’s explanation of the strategy
“If we do that, they might find out about our plan!”
Raiga seemed unconvinced by Tauro’s explanation and bit at him.
“Before they find out, you must carry out the plan that Raiga-san and his team have devised. We will work from the inside to stop them.”
“… If you’re not careful, you guys might be killed on the spot, you know?”
Eikoku warned against Tauro’s seemingly reckless plan.
“It’s okay. I’ve prepared information that they might want.”
Tauro replied with a smile.
“I’ve got it at ……. Raiga, let’s conduct our operations concurrently. If they fail, we can move without delay so that our operation will not be affected.”
Eikoku agreed to Tauro’s operation.
“Wait a minute, Eikoku! I always say I’m the leader, not you! …… we don’t have a choice. I’m telling you, once the operation starts, we won’t have time to rescue you guys, so you’ll have to protect your own lives.”
Raiga was pushed into accepting Tauro’s plan by his fellow comrade, Eikoku.
The plan that Raiga and his superiors had devised was explained to everyone, and the deployment and coordination were also explained.
The rest was to be done on the spot.
Tauro and his team were to work in a location unrelated to the operation, so when they heard from Eikoku about the base of the Assassination Guild, they decided to move to that area during the middle of the night.
“Leader. The strategy is good, but why are you collecting everyone’s weapons and making us carry spares?”
While traveling late at night, Tauro collected everyone’s weapons, staffs, spears, and great swords and put them in the magic storage.
“I’ll give them back to you later, so please use that spares for now.”
Tauro had moved on with everyone in tow, without any explanation of the plan.
The night was beginning to dawn and the sky in the east was tinged with red.
“Tauro, isn’t it about time we reached our destination?”
Ragune looked around and warned.
“Yes, but my ‘presence detection’ hasn’t picked up anything yet, so I think it’s fine…”
As Tauro was about to say.
Behind the four of them stood people dressed in black with curved swords pointed at them.
If you look closely, you can see that they are surrounded by others as well.
“… I’m sorry everyone. It looks like they have some kind of perception inhibition skill.”
Raising his hand, Tauro urged Aeris and the others to drop their weapons and surrender.
