This is the story on the other side, which happened a little earlier-

Twenty minutes ago, yay. In a tavern in the town of Lantier, Baili Xiaonagi is going on her own activities.

She looked like she had just been cleaned in the tavern, the wooden floors were clean, the chairs were neat, and the candles were so soft that she felt relaxed.

Because of the atmosphere in the tavern, the adventurers and soldiers who drank in it also restrained a lot, and there was no loud noise or shouting, which can be described as a very rare situation.

Sitting in the corner seat, Xiao Na ordered a grilled chicken and a glass of wine, which is the perfect lunch pairing!

But to be honest, Xiao Na doesn't like to drink, it's rather a hate.

I used to drink in front of Hiiragi, but I just wanted to show my adult side.

As soon as she thought of this, Xiao Nai laughed to herself, she didn't expect that she also had such an idea, which was quite unexpected.

In addition, there are other reasons why Xiao Na ordered a glass of wine, and that is because Xiao Nagi feels that she will not be alone, and there will be other people who will come and sit down with her.

Of course, these are just Xiao Nagi's speculations based on the current situation, and they can't explain anything.

Since a long time ago, Xiao Nagi felt that her guesses were very good, and she also had good luck in gacha and lottery tickets, and she could win the lottery every time.

It's just that it would be too impatient to call such a situation good luck, and Xiao Nagi doesn't think this is good luck, but a reminder of bad luck coming.

For example, it's like sitting by the fire in the winter and it's very warm. As a result, when I went out, I found it super cold outside. The temperature difference is too large to accept. I even feel disgusted.

I straightened my hair with my hands, and the hair color was black and white, so who did I inherit from my parents?

In the eyes of outsiders, their parents can be said to be handsome and beautiful, a match made in heaven, but what they don't know is that the personalities of the two people are just the opposite.

Xiao Nai has always felt very puzzled, that is, her parents obviously have very different personalities. It's not wrong to say the opposite, but they ended up getting married.

So two people who like each other are not so much similar as complementary, right?

It's exactly like an RPG game, and the team needs someone to add health, taunts, output, support, weaken, etc., all of which are indispensable.

Looking at the wine bottle in front of me, it contained the same wine as the adventurers next to it.

I opened the lid and sniffed it, and some pungent smell made Xiao Nagi frown.

Gathering information is not a simple matter, and if you want to understand the current state of the world, you can't just rely on the description in the original work.

The size of the town, the condition of the streets, the actions of the adventurers, and the frequency of monsters. These are all things that need to be investigated.

After all, it's easy for adventurers to level up to the highest level, but it's a little difficult to get to the bottom of the Great Tomb of Nazarik.

If the two sides are really opposed. Then Nagi thinks that he needs to use the information he has to bring all the surrounding areas under his control, and then find a way to attack Nazarik.

No matter how strong the enemy is, there will always be certain weaknesses, and there is no one without any weaknesses.

Xiao Na observes the adventurers and soldiers around her, analyzes their personalities through their subtle movements, and searches for some easy to talk to.

After all, Xiao Nagi is not a person who likes to cause trouble, unless the other party is an existence that interests her.

On the left is a team of adventurers, and the young man who looks like the captain is distributing the income this time, and he is not very happy from his expression;

Not far ahead, there were soldiers stationed here, who had laid down their arms and were drinking and talking about what to do after the shift change;

On the right-hand side are a girl and a man, who are dressed in a similar profession like a magician, and seem to be very talkative.

So what is Hiiragi doing now? After the mission was completed, it was already afternoon.

A little bored alone, Xiao Nai picked up the chicken in the bowl with chopsticks and ate it in one bite......

"Ahh

The sauce from another world is delicious, and it must have been added with something that is not available in the modern world.

If you want to survive in another world, money and information are necessary things.

Of course, unlike those who have just leveled up, Xiao Nagi knows that Hiiragi can't upgrade anymore, so there is no need to worry about daily money.

The only thing to care about is the movements of the protagonists in the world and the large amount of money that may be needed in the future.

While enjoying the chicken, I thought about the questions to think about.

For some reason, Nagi remembered the first time she and Hiiragi met, and they didn't have a good impression of each other at that time.

After all, Nagi didn't understand Hiiragi and thought he was a guy who went with the flow, but the result was far from the same.

Hiiragi has been fighting all the time, in order to solve his own misfortune......

It's the opposite of yourself......

Nagi is lucky, but that's a prelude to misfortune;

So, if Hiiragi is also in misfortune, then it can be said to be a prelude to the arrival of happiness.

"Excuse me, young lady, would you be interested in considering working with us? You're looking for a job, right? ”

At this time, two men who looked like businessmen sat opposite Xiao Nagi without permission.

They watched Xiao Nagi and reached for a bottle of wine that Xiao Na had ordered on the table.

"Does this young lady also drink? I think it's a good hobby, it looks like there's no job, right? ”

"Oh, our job is easy, we just need a few people to drink."

The two sang and harmonized, while Xiao Nagi continued to eat chicken.

"I'm sorry, I don't like to drink much, but I want to know, do you know what the royal family is doing?"

Keep abreast of the movements of the country's top ruling class, and you may have access to them.

"What kind of strange question is that, miss, we probably know what the royal family thinks, but they have a lot of guards every time they go out."

One of the men waved his hand. The center of the conversation is on the topic that was raised at the beginning.

He put the bottle back in its place. Said with a smile

"We can do a good job for you. You are...... Silver adventurer, right? Don't want to stay in your room and make money instead of fighting monsters? ”

"I promise to give you a good salary, and occasionally meet noble guests."

That's it......

Xiao Nai looked at them, and the job in these two people's mouths was probably the job of 'Miss picking up customers'.

Although all kinds of different jobs have their raison d'être, and this job is no exception, Xiao Nagi doesn't have a good impression of it.

Because there are a lot of things that are more interesting than this job.

No interest. That's all.

If you're interested, maybe I'll say yes.

"That's me."

"Huh?"

The man who heard Xiao Nai talking to herself changed to a puzzled tone.

Seeing that Xiao Na didn't answer, he motioned for several men behind him to surround Xiao Naga.

"Let's show you around the workplace, young lady."

"Do you want to use violence?"

"No, no, it's just a request, friendly exchange."

They looked at the soldiers not far away, and after making sure that they didn't want to meddle in their affairs, they planned to forcibly take Xiao Nagi away.

Any world is the same, and there are many people who can not get into trouble without getting into trouble, and there are some here.

After all, the righteous partner is only a character in the work, and it only exists in the work.

than justice. Evil is more straightforward, dignified and righteous in fighting justice, even if it will be defeated in the end.

However, it is a pity. Now the demon king and the brave man in the work are less and less like the demon king and the brave, but a youth character with the titles of "demon king" and "brave".

When the men around Xiao Na were about to forcibly take her, Xiao Na saw it......

"Ah...... Here we go. ”

Suddenly, a man appeared behind them.

Wearing heavy black and purple armor and carrying twin swords, his tall stature gives people a strong sense of oppression.

"You're looking for her?"

Perhaps completely suppressed by the aura of the Ainz who appeared, several men stood up and fled the scene.

Ainz looked at the man's back and turned to look at Nagi.

"May I sit down?"

"Of course, of course, Mr. Momo, please drink."

"You remember my name, but forget about this wine, I don't drink now."

Is it because it comes out between the cracks in the bones?

Xiao Nai thought that this was an inconsequential question, but she still poured two glasses of wine.

"Where did your companion go?"

"You said Xiaoye, go to work, and take over an escort mission."

Xiao Nai glanced at the chicken on the plate, and there was still some left, and picked one up and handed it to Anz.

"Do you want to eat?"

"I'm not hungry either."

"The taste is very good, the chicken is not charred or too raw, and with the carefully prepared soy sauce and sauce, the chicken pieces are very delicious."

"I'll taste it next time I have a chance, it turns out that your companion has received the task."

Ainz put his hand on his chin as if to say something.

Are you contacting someone else? Nagi only thought of this possibility.

"Actually, I have something I want to ask him for, but since I'm not here, forget it."

"You can tell me, too."

Ainz shook his head.

"No, it's not really important, so I won't bother you."

Ainz, who had just arrived at the scene, chose to leave.

Xiao Nai ate all her muscles, and was poured into the cup by a little untouched wine, but she couldn't get the money back......

Placing a gold coin on the table, Xiao Nagi got up and left the tavern.

The current destination is the Rantir fringe region, where intelligence traffickers are easiest to find.

But......

As soon as she stepped out of the densely populated neighborhood, Nagi noticed that someone was following her.

I tried to shake it off down the alley, but the speed was still a little slower.

Ahead, men in black benches blocked the way.

"Found you, human, and make sure that Lord Ainz's plan succeeds."

………………

The eighth order of magic was activated.

The reason why Nabe distanced herself from Hiiragi was so that she wouldn't be involved in the magic.

The ground cracked, and countless black mist emerged from the cracks, and a strong rancid smell filled the area.

The fog resembles a self-aware group, which is grouped together and forms black claws.

The claws made of mist gradually took on a solid shape, and they rushed towards Hiiragi from all directions.

I wanted to jump out of this range, but the top was blocked by a large number of claws, and Hiiragi's way was all blocked.

"Bugs, I won't let you get past this time."

This time? So last time it was in the tavern?

Hiiragi also hesitated, and his limbs were grabbed by the pitch-black claws.

The next moment, a sharp pain spread throughout the body.

"Ignore any defenses and magical corrosive toxins."

Nabe said from a short distance away

"Let me see your bones."

The boots were the first to be corroded, then the clothes and the leather armor of the wrists, then the skin.

The corrosive toxins begin to spread after they invade the body, but they all spread in the limbs and do not affect other parts of the organs.

The muscles, skin, and bones of the limbs began to scream.

The disgusting smell completely envelops Hiiragi as well.

This magic must be mass destruction magic.

Looking at Nabe, whose face had never changed beyond the mist, Hiiragi also sighed.

"The one who commanded you."

“……”

"That supreme being, I would like to meet in person, thoroughly, seriously, without the so-called mask."

"Why...... You bug. ”

So.

Hiiragi also moved his index finger, and the pain made the sweat flow, and Hiiragi began to use his ability.

Launches abilities in the shape of a blade;

Covering the body with abilities;

USE THE ABILITY AS A BUFF.

Constant exercise, constant death, that's all Hiiragi has now.

It is also Hiiragi's only hole card.

So......

"It's so annoying, this hurt feeling."

He opened his mouth and took a bite.

The black mist tried to resist, but was bitten to pieces.

“———？！”

Nabe's expression changed.

The invincible black mist was simply destroyed by Hiiragi.

After freeing the right hand, add an ability to the right hand to control the time to allow the damaged right hand tissue to begin to recover.

"Recovered?"

"Grit your teeth, Nabe!"

Then the left foot, then the right foot, take control of their time and do the reverse flow.

Nabe wants to use another spell to construct a spell while Hiiragi is completely freed from the black mist.

"First of all!"

Slash at Nabe with the severed katana she picked up, shredding the magic in front of her.

The sound of the spell shattering is similar to that of glass being broken.

With his right hand, he smashed Nabe's spell and left fist into the left side of the battle maid's face.

"Hmm———!"

Nabe's whole body was beaten away.

As her body hit the ground, she tried to pick herself up and attack, and Hiiragi began to sprint again.

Coming to the front and clamping her neck with her left hand, Nabe tried to tear Hiiragi's abdomen apart with her hands.

Dodging sideways, Hiiragi stabbed the broken katana in Nabe's shoulder with his right hand.

Cut!

Even though he is equipped with high-level armor, he is still pierced by the blade that Hiiragi also has the ability to attach.

"Stinky ......"

"Shut up."

With more force in her left hand, Nabe's throat was stuck and she couldn't make a sound.

"And then it's a negotiation?"

I don't know what the situation is on Xiao Nagi's side...... (To be continued.) )
