"Kasukabe-sama is really powerful. I'm so envious ......."

Seeing the smiles of the two, Yao scratched his head in embarrassment. However, Asuka's voice and expression were depressed.

Even though Yao had only met Asuka for a few hours, she still didn't feel like her.

"What about Miss Jiuyuan?"

"Just call me Asuka. Please take care of me, Miss Kasugabe. ”

"Ahh What power do birds have? By the way, can Mr. Li Na's strength be easily revealed? ”

"Me? My power...... Well, it's excessive. Because—"

"Oh? I wonder who it is, isn't this the leader of the worst guild in the Eastern District, Renjun. Not with the babysitter Black Rabbit today? A temperamentless but hard-pretended high-class voice suddenly called Ren.

The three people except Li Na turned their heads and saw a man with a tuxedo stretched tightly outside the giant body and a height of more than two meters appeared.

This anomalous man is very unlucky...... It's really unfortunate that it's someone Jen knows.

Ninichi frowned and said to the man, "Our guild is 'Nameless', Jurd Gespa of Fores.Garo. ”

"Shut up! You are nameless. Didn't I hear you were looking for someone new there? It's a shame that you've lost your reputation and temperament as a representative of the guild, and you still don't give up on letting the guild survive—don't you think so, two young ladies......"

Jarde, a giant man in a tight tuxedo, sat down in an empty seat at a table for four, completely ignoring Li Na, who was drinking tea on the side.

Although he smiled flatteringly at Asuka and Yao, the two of them, who were deeply upset by each other's rude behavior, had an unusually cold attitude.

"I'm sorry, if you want to sit at the same table, you should report your name first and then ask a question, right?"

"Oops~ I'm so sorry, I'm under the guild [Six Hundred and Sixty-Six Beasts] on the upper floor of the box court——"

"Rabble......

"Also as the leader of the guild...... Yes! Wait, hey! Boy, who do you say is the rabble!! ”

Jarde's expression, interrupted by Jen, changed as he roared. The corners of his mouth were cracked all the way to his ears, and his carnivore-like fangs bared out, and his eyes stared at Ren with rage.

"If you were the guardian of the forest, I would have treated you with the same courtesy, but now you are nothing more than a wild beast that runs rampant near the outer gate of 2105380."

"Ha, that doesn't change that you're an undead who clings to the glory of the past. Do you really understand the current state of your guild? ”

"Wait, stop for a moment!" Asuka stopped the two of them and raised his hand, "I don't know why, but I already know that you two don't have a good relationship." So I'd like to ask a question at this time—"

Asuka's eyes lit up, and the target wasn't Jurd Geispar.

"Renjun. What Mr. Jarde said of the current state of our guild...... How can this be explained? ”

"This, this ......"

Ren Yu was plugged. At the same time, he realized that he had made a huge mistake. That is, it actually involved discussing with the black rabbit to hide something.

His wavering did not escape the eyes of the birds. She continued, "You just called yourself the leader of the guild. Then, like Black Rabbit, we should have an obligation to explain to us, whom you call the new comrades, what exactly the guild is. That's right, right? ”

The voice of inquiry was quiet, like a sharp dagger tormenting Ren.

Seeing this scene, Jurd Gaspard, whose beast face returned to his human form, pretended to be elegant with a smile: "Ma'am, as you said. The guild leader explained to the new comrades that it was a natural obligation to explain the rules of the Hakoniwa world. But he probably didn't want to do that. If you don't mind, please allow me, the leader of [Fores.Garo], to objectively explain to you the importance of the guild and the imp...... No, the "nameless" guild led by Jen Russell."

“…… It's good. Then please. ”

"Thank you very much. First of all, the word guild is an umbrella term for organizations coined by plural nouns. Admissions vary by race. Humans, depending on their size, can be called a family, organization, or country as a guild, while phantom beasts can be replaced by [group]"

"I understand that."

"Okay, that's just confirmation. In order to act as a guild, you must apply for a "name" and "flag" in the box garden. In particular, it was argued that the flag was an important symbol for the demarcation of the Guild's territory. There's a big flag hanging in this shop, right? That's—"

Jarde pointed to a flag hanging from an open-air café sign with the "Six Wounds" motif

"The banner with six wounds on it means that this storefront is the territory of the guild in charge. If you want to strengthen your guild, you only need to hold a [Gift Competition] with the guild to which the banner belongs with the consent of both parties. That's actually how my guild has grown. Jurd Gespar boastfully pointed to the flag emblain on his taut tuxedo.

On his chest, there is embroidery with a tiger pattern.

Yao and Asuka looked around, and the shops and buildings around the plaza had the same pattern.

"This coat of arms is a sign of territory...... Can I assume that this neighborhood is basically under the rule of your guild? ”

"Exactly. Unfortunately, the guild base that owns this shop can't be sold in the Southern District. However, the medium-sized guilds that can operate near the outer gate of 2105380 are basically under my rule. The only guilds left are those with bases in other districts or at the upper levels, and nameless guilds that don't even have the value of grabbing......" Jurd said with a smirk.

Ren still didn't look at him squarely, clutching his robe.

"Alright, now it's about the two ladies guild. The guild you belong to—until years ago, it was the most powerful guild in the East—"

"Ah, what an accident~"

That being said, the leader at the time was someone else. He is a wonderful man who Renjun can't compare to at all. Because it holds the highest record in the Gift Competition, the strongest guild in the Eastern Region~" Juld's tone changed and he said very boringly.

It seems that for him, who is now maintaining the largest guild in the vicinity, he feels that benevolence is nothing from the bottom of his heart.

"In this box court, which is divided into four districts, south, east and west, not only in the eastern district, but also with the main guild leaders in the north and south. Oh, I'm going to upset Ren. But he's really good. Even the south

The Phantom Beast King Ge of the District and the Demon Rakshasa of the North District have all recognized him, and even infiltrated the guild of the upper level of the Box Court, which really makes me feel more than jealousy and deep respect. - Well, of course it's just the last generation~"

“…………”

"In terms of the guild established by the "human", it can be said that it has achieved countless feats, but! ……… They are targeted by something that must not be provoked. So he was forced to participate in the Gift Contest, which was destroyed in just one night. It is the most terrible natural disaster in the world of Hakowa ruled by this [Gift Competition]! ”

"Acts of God?" Asuka and Yao asked at the same time. Because it is only because of natural disasters that such a huge organization will be destroyed.

"It's not just a metaphor, ladies. They are the only biggest and most terrifying natural disaster in this box court - commonly known as the existence of the [Demon King]! ”

"Demon King ......" Li Na finally reacted at this time and slowly raised his head.
