"Are you a couple?" After a moment of silence, a deep voice came from the minotaur man.

"Why do you ask this?" Harumi asked instead of answering.

"Because I hate couples! The sweet men and women together make me very jealous when I see them. The minotaur said in a serious tone.

Harusa: "............"

Bumping into a wild F-starting group member?, he gave a subtle look.

And it's a strange guy with a bull hood...... Thinking of the content of those evil books labeled as "Minotaurs", Harusa's vigilance has increased greatly!

"Answer me, are you a couple?" the minotaur asked again.

"I'm not obligated to answer. Harusa replied with a tough attitude, "Who are you?"

"Just look at it, I'm a minotaur!" the minotaur raised his head and snapped.

Harusa again: "............"

This is said so imposingly that it is difficult to complain.

Poof...... Someone laughed.

It's a kobold.

The Minotaur looked at her in unison with Harusa and Mika.

"Hello, I'm kobold. A clear female voice rang out.

Then the kobold laughed again, apparently thinking that she was funny.

"Who are you?" she asked in a polite tone after laughing.

“…… I'm the Knight Commander, and behind me is the Sixth Knight Knight. Harusa responded politely.

"The Captain of the Knight and the Sixth Knight...... May I ask where the Knights are?"

"Yes. But first, please tell me where you're from, Miss Kobold and Mr. Minotaur. ”

"We come from the Kingdom of the Rhine in Barua. The kobold replied in a plausible tone.

"Barua" is the world name of "Honey Sugar Maiden", and "Rhine Kingdom" is the orc kingdom among them.

"Fortunately, we are also from Barua, the knights of the Kingdom of Art. Harusa also said in a serious tone.

"I've only been to the kingdom of Ate twice, it's a great place, with beautiful scenery and delicious custard pancakes. ”

"Thanks for the compliment. The Kingdom of the Rhine is also a great place, although I have only been there once, but I was impressed by the kindness and warmth of the people there, as well as the variety of delicious jerky. ”

"Thank you for the compliment. It's a fate that we can meet here, hehe......" kobold laughed.

"yes, quite a wonderful fate, haha......" Haruji smiled as well.

The two of them smiled at each other, as if they were really pleasant.

Obviously, both sides are, but they don't break each other.

The minotaur and Meijia who watched this scene: "............"

"How did you get here?" the kobold asked.

"Of course I was caught up in it by accident. Harusa looked at each other, "Aren't you?"

"It's not. We came in on purpose. The kobold replied.

Hearing this, Harusa's eyes froze.

"Hey! kobold...... "What did the minotaur want to say.

"Tell them it's okay, Minotaur. The kobold glanced at her companion, and then couldn't help but smile again.

"Came in on purpose...... Can I understand that this place was actually created by you?" asked Harusa seriously.

"No, we don't have that ability. The kobold shook her head slightly.

"What are you here for?"

"That can't tell you, Mr. Knight. Kobold chuckled, "Unless you're willing to join us." ”

Harusa's eyes flickered.

"Can I join you?"

"Yes. Not only you, but also the Knight Lady behind you can join. ”

“…… Why?"

"Because you've come in here. ”

"I don't understand what you mean. ”

"You weren't supposed to be here, but you came in, so you're eligible to join. ”

“…… What if we don't want to join?"

"We'll send you out, and we probably won't see each other again. The kobold said lightly.

A dialogue option suddenly appeared in front of Haruji-

A: I want to join you.

B: I don't want to join you.

C: I want to know more clearly.

Looking at these three options, he fell silent.

The two people in front of them are likely to be members of the Netherworld or people related to the forces of the Netherworld!

According to the kobold, they didn't intend to draw people into this inner realm, but they did enter here, and for some reason, it had the value of solicitation.

Although it doesn't sound like the other person is lying, it's hard to tell. Opting in may be pitted, and opting out may be attacked, and it may be the same if you want to know more.

All three options are risky...... Harusa saves the file before making a decision.

"I want to know more clearly so that I can seriously think about it. He said solemnly.

"If you join, it will make you do something, and then you will be rewarded accordingly, and if you fail, there may or may not be a punishment. "You can refuse what you don't want to do, but you can't always say no." ”

"All relevant information must be kept confidential, and there will be penalties for leaking secrets. ”

"The rewards are good, the penalties are severe, and the risks and benefits are balanced...... That's all I can tell you. ”

"Just knowing that is basically the same as not knowing anything. Harusa expressed displeasure.

"I'm sorry, that's really all I can say. ”

"Kobold...... Are you serious?" the minotaur asked in a low voice.

"Seriously, of course. The kobold looked at him, "There should be no problem with these two." ”

"You're so casual. ”

"Please don't say that to a lady. ”

"Lady...... Scold. ”

"What do you mean by this laughter?"

The minotaur ignored her and looked at Harusa.

"You're actually a couple, aren't you?" he insisted.

"What if yes, what if not?"

"If yes, I'll cut you. ”

Harusa was speechless. Is this guy really a member of a terrorist group that starts with F?

"Don't scare him, Minotaur. Kobold said.

"I'm not scaring him, I'm serious. ”

"It's even more excessive. ”

"I'll cut with the back of a knife. ”

"It's still excessive. ”

"Only with the back of a knife can I vent the hatred in my heart. ”

"You're too rude. ”

"I'm a minotaur!" said the minotaur with his head raised again.

The kobold ignored him and turned to Harusa.

"Such a stupid person, I'm sorry to make you laugh. ”

"It's okay...... May I ask if there are more members like you over there, or more members like this Minotaur over there?"

"I don't know about that. ”

Does that mean she doesn't know all the members herself?, Haruji thought to herself.

"Have you thought about it, or not?" the kobold asked in a tone that was inaudible.

The bull-headed man silently put his hand on the hilt of the knife at his waist.

The scene was silent again.
