Gun-ota ga Mahou Sekai ni Tensei Shitara - Chapter 132

A few weeks after the battle with Lucca, I was summoned to the Adventurer’s Guild. Of course, it is about Lucca.

Only I, as representative of Peacemaker, went trough the Adventurer’s guild’s gate. When the demon girl receptionist noticed me, she rushed quickly. She always smiled, but it looked strange today.

She cut out after bowing.

“I’m sorry, for calling you.”

“No, it’s okay, so what’s the matter today?”

The reason that I was called to the Adventurer’s guild was about to be heard. She looked anxious…

“Actually, some people would like to talk with a representative of PEACEMAKER…”

The receptionist looks around and gently moves her lips to my ear. She smells good and the tip of her chest hits me. Help, help! …… No, this isn’t cheating, isn’t it? Because you get a breast hit at a dentist or a beauty salon, right? It’s similar!

I casually line up excuses in my chest.

And I heard the information about the guest waiting in the private room from the receptionist.

When I opened the door of the private room, a woman was sitting on the sofa enjoying a cup of tea. When she noticed me, she stood up from the sofa and bowed to me.

Semi-long hair, in the mid-20s with glasses. She created an atmosphere that said she was a really accomplished secretary.

“I’m sorry to call you while you’re busy. My name is Seraphina, I am in charge of the Beast man Continent Diplomacy and Negotiation Division of First Legion.”

“Thank you very much for your kindness. I’m Lute Gunsmith, representing PEACEMAKER.”

We greeted each other. The receptionist just gave me a cup of tea and left the room. In the private room, First Legion Serafina and I were left.

There was a reason why the receptionist was looking nervously. I heard a detailed story about First Legion waiting inside a while ago.

First Legion were the five tribes’ heroes who saved this world from the Demon King They established the Adventurer’s guild and the first thing they did was found the First Legion.

In other words, the first legion in this world was called ‘First’. The name represented too much. Moreover, the descendants of the five races gathered at First Legion. It had a history and tradition that is incomparable to the Chrysanthemum Knights.

Of course, First Legion’s ranking is the highest [Orichalcum]. They are number one in the ranking. Its influence extends strongly to the Guild of adventurers.

I confront Serafina, who is in charge of diplomacy and negotiation for such a Legion.

She smiled with a feeling that everyone would like.

“I have heard of Lord Gunsmith’s achievements that are like shining stars. I have to thank God for allowing me to talk to such a person.”

“Thank you very much. But our Legion is still like a fledgling kid compared to Start Legion.”

“You’re too humble. My boss is also very surprised by the rare breakthrough of Peacemaker Legion in recent years.”

“I can be proud to the last generation of being able to say that First Legion said so.”

We exchanged pleasantries with each other. Then Serafina cut to the chase.

“–Nothing else called Sir Gunsmith today. I want you to hand over the remnants of the armors that were with Lucca and the former commander who is in custody at the headquarters of the Chrysanthemum Knights.”

“Why is that again? … We can’t hand over all the armors for research and analysis, but we have a fair amount of it, so you can take as much as you need. However, the trial of the former leader Lucca has not ended, and I wonder if I can hand her over on my own… ”

“It’s okay. All your problems have been solved by us. This is the evidence.”

She pulled out a stack of papers from a bag she had set aside.

In other words, they had already been acknowledged by all relevant parties. Greeting us was an appeal that says, “I’m doing it properly.”

As expected, First Legion only needs to call the Adventurers Guild, isn’t it?

“Of course, it’s not free. If you hand her over, you’ll get a reward, and if you have a request you can ask anything.”

I sank into the sofa and think.

There is no case going against First Legion who has a great influence in the adventurer’s guild.

It would be safer for Lucca to move to another location than to be in this city.

Kokori Street seems to be regaining peace at first glance, but there is still anger at her in the hearts of the residents.

It’s hard to think of breaking into the basement of the Order and adding a private sentence, but the possibility is not zero. However, there is a point I am worried about.

“… can I ask one thing?”

“Yes, as far as I can answer.”

“”Why do you demand the extradition of Lucca, the former commander? The Sorcerer Killer Case was indeed painful, but I don’t think it’s enough for First Legion to stick its head in.”

“I know how you feel. For certain reasons, we are seeking the custody of Lucca, the former commander.…Sir gunsmith, I ask you not to divulge any further details about what I am going to tell you.”

Serafina dropped the tone and started talking.

First Legion seems to be following an organization rather than one incident.

The name of the organization is “Black”.

” ‘Black’ is an organization of the “Demon King worshippers” who are working on the resurrection of the Six Great Demon Kings.”

“The resurrection of the Demon King? Demon King worshipers?”

Certainly … I’ve learned it in the history class of Eru sensei in the past. No, I wasn’t exactly learning, but I was listening.

I remember the memory of that time and the history of this world:

From the god Tenjin, the six great demon kings steal a secret method called Shinpo. The demon kings degrade and modify the Shinpo to their magic so that they can handle it, and they flee to the earth. And the demon kings ruled this world with the power of magic.

However, the heroes of the five races who lived on the five continents rose up, stealing the secret of magic from the demon kings, and converted it into the magic that they could handle. [TN the author uses two words Mahou (magic, witchcraft, sorcery) for the magic used by the demon Kings, and majutsu for the magic used by the heroes.]

Five of the six Great Demon Kings were defeated and sealed by the magic of the Heroes.

It is reported that the last Demon King is still alive and buried deep within the Makai continent, right?

The organization, “Black,” seems to be trying to revive the sealed Demon King, defeated by the five races.

But why?

“I don’t know. Do they have a desire for destruction, or are they trying to revive the demon king and get eternal life and youth?”

Now, the most important religion is Tenjin. It is a religion that worships the god Tenjin. There seem to be some other variants of that.

I’m not interested in learning more.

Nevertheless, I heard about the Demon King worship for the first time.

Since there are worshipers of the devil even on the earth of the previous life, it is not funny to see “Worshipers of the Demon King” in this world. However, the demon king is really sealed in this different world.

It’s like happily entering the suicide code of a set nuclear bomb.

I can’t understand thinking about trying to do something that would destroy the world. It’s crazy!

“We’ve been following ‘black’ for many years, but we couldn’t find a strong clue. So, this time, I want to take over Lucca who has contact with the “black’s” executive class. Her spirit is broken, but we might get some good clues.”

“I see, I’ll be happy to give you that kind of thing. There’s only garbage left on the site, but I’ll give you something. There might be some clues.”

“Thank you, Lord Gunsmith. I’m glad you said that!”

Serafina gladly grabbed my hand and squeezed it with a smile. I’m just glad that she looks only like a secretary innocent and happy.

“By the way, there is one more thing I’m worried about, can I ask you a question?”

“Yes, please do not hesitate.”

“Is there a quest commissioned by the Adventurer’s Guild to investigate this “Black” organization?”

She smiled bitterly.

“No, we, First Legion are doing it on our own. So even if you solve the case, you won’t get any compensation money.”

…… are they volunteers?

“But somebody has to prevent the crisis beforehand. I can’t overlook it just because there’s no reward. It’ll be too late to move after the Demon King’s resurrection.”

There was strength in the handshake.

“By the way, there is a reward for extradition. How much would you like? Peacemaker I mean. I want to pay for what you want because I want to have better relationships in the future. ”

After talking about that, please don’t link this to the story. I don’t think you can afford to pay too much.
