In the reception room, Princess Lana smiled and looked at the adventurers in front of her.

"It's really hard for you this time, the eight fingers were pulled up in one fell swoop and completely destroyed, so that the kingdom can be safe."

"It's all thanks to you, Your Highness the Princess."

Radith, the captain of the Rose, bowed her head.

"But, with all due respect, I'm afraid it's not that simple, in fact, in the process, we discovered that there is a mysterious force hidden behind Eight Fingers."

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Princess Lana immediately sat up straight and stared at Radith.

"And that kind of thing?"

"Yes."

At this moment, the masked girl stepped forward.

"When Gegran and I attacked the headquarters of Sylma, the leader of the Eight Fingers, we encountered a very powerful monster, and not only that, but we also encountered a high demon!"

"High Demon?"

"Yes! He called himself Adabao, a very terrible and powerful demon. ”

Speaking of this, it seemed that she remembered the battle at that time, and the masked girl couldn't help but tremble.

"Frankly, even I'm no match for him."

"An opponent you can't even defeat in Ibirauai? Is the other party so strong? ”

"Yes, but luckily we have an equal, if not more powerful, helper......... Do you remember the day before yesterday, when the stronghold of Eight Fingers was taken to the pot? ”

"Of course."

Hearing this, Princess Lana nodded, and frankly speaking, although the accident disrupted their deployment, it also greatly weakened the strength of Eight Fingers, which is why Princess Lana was determined to take this opportunity to launch a general attack on Eight Fingers.

"I remember you said at the time that it was possible that the other party was an adventure party that had just advanced to Obsidian?"

"It's not possible anymore, it's them."

The masked girl answered in the affirmative this time.

"They arrived there after us, and that high demon was easily slain by the knight of this group of adventurers."

"However, the other party is an opponent that even Ibiruai can't defeat."

Hearing this, Princess Lana raised her own questions. The Rose is the top adventurer team in the kingdom, and the level is golden. This is already the second strongest existence under platinum. But Lana knows very well that most of the strength of the cangrose is actually in the masked girl in front of her, as well as Radith as the captain, and the strength of the others is not particularly strong.

In other words, in the Rose Squad, only Ibirai and Radith have reached the gold level, and the high-level demons who can easily defeat Ibiruai must be terrifying existences beyond the gold level, however, such a strong man was easily killed by an unknown knight? So, what is the strength of that knight?

On top of gold, there is only white gold......... But among the platinum-level powerhouses, is there such a person?

"Who is he?"

"He calls himself Fangzheng, the Abyss Watcher, the knight of the Flange Immortals."

"The Flange Immortals? Abyss Watcher? ”

Hearing this, Princess Lana's face became more and more suspicious, she had never heard of similar organizations and forces.

"I haven't heard of anything like it and platinum-level adventurers........."

"He's not an adventurer, and although he's a member of a squad with the other three girls, he's not registered with the Adventurers' Guild."

"Why?"

"I don't know ......... either"

Speaking of this, the masked girl is also very puzzled, generally speaking, even if it is a super strong, unless it is in a high position, otherwise, it will basically be registered in the Adventurer Guild, after all, the strong are not all falling from the sky, as strong as the Holy Maiden of the Sword, she was also just a newcomer in the Adventurer Guild.

It's just that this knight is indeed different, at least the masked girl doesn't understand why he is unwilling to register in the Adventurer's Guild——— after all, if he registers, his record of killing vampires and high demons alone will be enough to raise him to the gold level.

"So, what you call the power hidden behind the eight fingers ........."

Although she was a little curious about the knight, Princess Lana quickly gathered her thoughts and brought back the topic of running away. Hearing Princess Lana's words, the masked girl came back to her senses and coughed embarrassedly.

"That's right, Your Highness Princess, have you ever heard of the name Ainz?"

"......... Ainz? Haven't heard of it......... Who is he? ”

"We don't know."

With that, the masked girl's tone became serious again.

"However, before the High Demon died, he had called this name, and His Excellency the Knight had said that the vampire who had been slain by him before had said the same name."

"So, you mean ........."

"I've discussed it with the captain."

Masked Girl and Radith looked at each other, and then Radix spoke.

"Your Highness Princess, we suspect that the person named Ainz is likely to be the real ruler who secretly manipulated Eight Fingers."

"Oh? Why? ”

"Because so far, we have not found any trace of the leader of the Eight Fingers, and after that, we have investigated the stronghold and found that most of Sylma's men have been killed, and she herself is nowhere to be found. I suspect it's likely that the man named Ainz sent his own men to kill him. After all, with the strength of that high-level demon, if it weren't for the sudden appearance of His Excellency the Knight, our Cangqiang Rose would definitely not be the opponent of the other party. At that point, perhaps they will create the illusion that we will fight to the death with the guards in the stronghold, and then both will be defeated. Moreover, on the same day that we attacked the stronghold, that high demon and his monsters appeared, which is not a coincidence. ”

"And the previous vampire rampers."

At this time, the masked girl also hurriedly spoke.

"The incident took place in the area near the royal city, and of course, if it was just an ordinary isolated incident, then maybe it wasn't too much of a problem. But if both of these have the same character behind them......... Whether he is the behind-the-scenes manipulator of Eight Fingers or not, at least one thing can be explained, that is, near the royal capital, there are already a group of dangerous people active. Judging from the strength of the other party, whether it is the vampire that was rumored before, or the monsters and high-level demons we encountered when attacking the stronghold, they are all very terrifying enemies. In case the other party has monsters as powerful as high demons and vampires..............."

"Then the royal capital is in danger."

Hearing this, Princess Lana's expression also became solemn. She is not a fool, of course she understands the meaning of Radith's words, the other party has lost two subordinates in a row, and they are both very strong existences. In this way, the other party may retaliate against the kingdom, and if this happens, then it will be a disaster for the kingdom.

"Understood, I will immediately send someone to investigate the surrounding area, and if there is any suspicious information, I will notify you as soon as possible."

"Yes, Your Highness Princess!"

Just when the kingdom was discussing how to proceed with the next step, Fangzheng's side also had its own plans.

"Huh? What did you say? ”

Looking at Main's surprised little face on the screen, Fang Zheng smiled.

"I mean, I'm going to buy a manor nearby as a base, would you be interested in coming and staying and taking care of it for me?"

"This ........."

"Don't worry, although it is said to be a manor, the overall facilities are completely modern, just enough to give your family a transition, as a rehearsal before going to the modern society, how about it?"

"But......... Just the four of us ........."

"Of course it's not just you, I'll send some maids."

The maid Fang Zheng was talking about was none other than the girls who had been rescued from the Eight Fingers' underground organization, and they were all abused by the members of the Eight Fingers Organization just like Qi Yalei. And these girls had nowhere to go, so Fang Zheng decided to send them to his manor as maids.

After all, this is also a coordinate point, and the coordinate point needs a stronghold to maintain. But considering the nature of the chaos pollution here, Fang Zheng didn't dare to send people in like other coordinate points, since this was the case, then the only way was to use the aborigines of this world——— of course, Fang Zheng was not worried about what damage these aborigines would cause to him, after all, this was just a simple stronghold, used to observe and collect news, and rest by the way.

“…………………”

Hearing this, Mei Yin couldn't help but bow her head, and after a few moments, she asked in a low voice.

"Why be so nice to us? Even though we're all traversers, ........."

"Indeed, it seems to you that it is too much of a struggle, right?"

Fang Zheng certainly understood Main's thoughts, but he obviously had his own considerations.

"But, at the same time, the end of the world is falling, if you can help, you will naturally help, and, perhaps, for you, these things are very expensive, but for me, it is not a big deal......... My power is far beyond your imagination, not only in this world, but also in other worlds, and even the power of a king cannot be compared to mine. So you don't have to worry, for me, it's not even a drop in the bucket, understand? I own countless planets, hundreds of star fields, and money is just a number for me, you see, it's that simple. ”

"Hahh..............."

Hearing Fang Zheng's answer, Main's expression became extremely complicated.

"I just can't understand why we have such a big gap.........

"After all, I've been here for many years, and you're just getting started, if you give you a little time, maybe you can also become some kind of world-shaking great magician."

"In my five-year-old body?"

Main lowered her head, glanced at her body, which was nominally five years old but in fact about the same as three, and pouted helplessly.

"Frankly speaking, before I met you, I was already desperate to survive in itself, you have no idea how weak this body is, I will fall ill and have a fever after walking for a while, and several times I thought I was going to die........."

"The heavens will descend on the people, and they must first work hard to work their muscles and bones, as a traverser, they always have to chant a few words, whether it is useful or not, how much is it a psychological comfort, isn't it?"

"That's right........."

"Anyway, that's it, when everything is done, I'll send someone to pick you up, and before that, think about how to convince your parents."

“…………… How am I going to convince me? ”

"That's your problem, as a traverser, you have to solve this little thing yourself, don't you?"

smiled and teased Main, and Fang Zheng hung up the contact.

As for the purchase of the manor itself, there is no need for Fang Zheng to worry about it, although there is no FBI in this world, but because of Fang Zheng's exploits in eliminating vampires and high demons, the kingdom also gave Fang Zheng a large amount of money as a reward, and these money can still be used to buy a manor and renovate it, and it can still be used to live.

As for those tinkering things, just leave it to the magic servants to do, isn't this what the mage learns magic for?

"Well, I'll leave it to you along the way."

As he spoke, Fang Zheng took out a bag of gold coins and handed it to the goddess official.

"When you go back, remember to find a manor as I said......... You can ask the guild to help introduce them, and then put these girls there temporarily, and pick up this girl named Mains and her family......... I've already said hello to her. All in all, that's all there is to do at the moment, are there any doubts? ”

"Yes, Your Excellency."

Taking the money bag, the goddess official looked a little uneasy.

"That......... Aren't you going with us? ”

"I'm going to deal with the troubles here, and then go back, by the way, for the sake of safety, I also made an announcement in the Adventurers' Guild, and I should recruit an adventure party to go with you."

"We are adventurers ourselves, so why do we need to recruit adventurers."

Hearing this, Megumi complained dissatisfied.

"After all, there are a lot of people, relying on you alone, once something happens, you won't have time to protect it."

"Woo........."

Hearing this, Hui Hui didn't say anything, the girls who left with them as maids this time, plus Qi Yalei, there were a total of more than a dozen people, and they had to hire three carriages, and the goddess official, Ace and Hui Hui added up to three people, and they definitely couldn't take care of so many people.

"Well, I hope it's a capable team of adventurers, otherwise, I wouldn't want it!"

"It should be fine......... Well, I think it's almost there, too. ”

As he spoke, Fang Zheng raised his head and looked towards the door, and soon, there was a knock on the door, and then a voice sounded.

"That......... Sorry to interrupt, we're the Red Oath Squad........."
