The place itself is not too far from the city.

It is not a dangerous move to meet passers-by by the official road and invite them to talk.

Ronald probably understood what the other party was thinking.

So with a smile on his face, he walked into the camp with Kostat.

The attitude of the businessmen seems to be more than superficial enthusiasm.

As soon as Ronald and the others entered the camp, they were invited to sit with the others and share the dinner prepared by the merchants.

The darkness of night gradually covered the sky.

Just talking with these merchants before and after dinner, time flies.

And coincidentally, the destination of these merchants is the same as that of Ronald and the others.

They also planned to go to the capital of the [Nine Rings Secret Society].

However, walking along the official road, you will pass through two cities and will only arrive there after several goods transactions.

And just like that, night came completely.

The merchants each returned to the carriage to rest, and before the break, one of them extended an invitation to Ronald and the two:

"Two, it's so late, and it's still in the wilderness."

"I don't think it's convenient for the two of you, why don't you just rest with us?"

Ronald naturally had no reason to refuse, and immediately nodded:

"In that case, then bother."

It was only a makeshift camp, and the merchants naturally slept in wagons.

The one who took care of Ronald was obviously very careful, and specially hung a white cloth in the car, and then said goodnight:

"Forced by the environment, I have only this kind of hospitality."

Ronald immediately replied:

"Don't say that, we should be grateful for being treated like this."

“……”

As the time passed, snoring began to sound in the convoy camp.

After a long day's journey, these ordinary merchants naturally quickly fell asleep as a way to recover from physical and mental fatigue.

But Ronald and Caterina are different.

Their own energy is enough to support several days of high-intensity activity, and their usual sleep comes more from habits and enjoyment of life.

The environment of the carriage obviously does not make people very comfortable.

So when the merchants next to them fell asleep, they quietly left the carriage and sat down by the still burning campfire.

The person in charge of the vigil at this time noticed the two and immediately asked:

"Two, it's not early, aren't you resting?"

Ronald shook his head slightly:

"Both of us are actually spellcasters, and we're in good spirits."

"Ah, I see." The merchant who was keeping vigil reacted in surprise slightly, but it wasn't too intense, "But it's also true, if it weren't for the caster, ordinary people would rarely dare to walk in the wilderness so late. ”

Speaking of this, the night watchman seemed to remember something, shook his head and chuckled:

"Even in a place like this......"

Hearing the meaning of the other party's words, Ronald did not ask.

Instead, he opened his mouth and introduced himself in more detail:

"Sir, in fact, the two of us have just entered this country. Even if it's only a few days of experience, you can find that the people here are much friendlier than outside. ”

The merchant immediately laughed:

"Isn't it?"

"Although this place has only been established for a long time, it is also a paradise compared to the places in the north where there are daily wars."

Seeing that the businessman was in a good mood, Ronald continued to advance the topic:

"So, sir, can you tell us about the situation here?"

"Absolutely." The merchant replied decisively, "I just want to find something to do for myself, let alone tell a story to a big man like you!" ”

The voice landed, and the merchant began to tell his story.

Because they are merchants who transport goods and sell them around, they have to be more careful and sensitive to society. But this is the kind of person who quite honestly approves of the rule of the [Nine Rings Secret Society].

According to the merchants, in the territory of the [Nine Rings Secret Society], everyone has a clear hierarchy and strict laws. The rich and the powerful enjoy life, and the lowest class will not be deprived of a bite to eat.

Compared with other countries in this era, it is modest to say that it is a saint to rule the country.

In particular, Ronald also turned on the detection spell of "Divine Comedy - Hell Chapter". So he knew that the merchant in front of him didn't say so out of fear or awe, but really thought so.

Before the [Grad] fleet set off, the judgment of the [Nine Rings Secret Meeting] seemed to be completely inaccurate.

Claudia, who at the moment is still preparing forces in the north......

If you want to take this new kingdom in one fell swoop, I am afraid it is no longer possible.

……

The sky is cloudless tonight.

Little by little, the merchant recounted what he had seen, and the time gradually came to the second half of the night, the time for the vigil.

Naturally, the businessman stopped talking.

"Tonight's conversation was pleasant, both of you. But now that it's time for a shift change, no matter how reluctant we are, we should also say goodbye. ”

Ronald has a lot of respect for the businessman who has provided so much information.

So he took the initiative to stand up and send the other party away from the campfire.

"We're bothering you, go get some rest."

“……”

The businessman who changed shifts next had just woken up, and his spirit was obviously worse than the previous one.

Ronald had a brief chat with him, not intending to continue to drain the other person's energy, so he fell silent, just sitting there and staring at the campfire in front of him.

——What does the [Nine Rings Secret Meeting] want to do?

Judging from the tendencies of the past Barrier Mountain period, the organization of the [Nine Commandments Secret Society] has obvious contempt and disdain for the attitude of ordinary people, which can be said to be radical to the point of exaggeration.

And this kind of thing is completely inconsistent with what I have seen and heard now.

Ronald didn't think it was something he could deceive, after all, in addition to the businessman's story, he also saw the picture of the city.

Things in everyday life are the hardest to disguise.

Therefore, this is most likely the current status quo of the [Nine Rings Secret Society].

Then the question arises.

What are the factors that make this kind of earth-shaking change happen to this kind of thing that is rooted in the organization's creed?

Could it be that together is like what the Great Demon Ramer said during the Hamono period?

Just a sudden up-and-coming rookie spellcaster can change everyone's minds and steer the organization in a completely different direction?

"How is this possible......"

Ronald muttered quietly, then shook his head with a smile himself.

He does not deny the existence of such people, but how can such a miracle be achieved in just one year.

Looks like trying to figure things out.

I can only do it down-to-earth and discover with my own eyes what is going on on on this land.

At this time, Ronald raised his head and shifted his gaze from the burning campfire to the sky.

The starry sky is dazzling.

It is as if giants full of wisdom are quietly watching everything on the earth.
