Episode Six: It sounded very sad.

"That said, the question is how do we explore the bandits' Ajit..."

The next morning, we were gathered in a room at the inn to discuss.

Though I have some time to spare, I still can't stay in this city for days.

Even if I ask you to hurry to your destination, it will be about two or three days at most.

But it was a situation where not only adventurers, but lords seem to be chasing bandits until they move the Knights, but they still haven't even been able to pinpoint their strongholds.

"It's easy! You just have to pretend to be a weak girl and dare the bandits to catch you and take you all the way to Azito."

"I see. That's a good idea, Lord Kruschet. It's dangerous, but I think it's a sure way."

Aria nodded to Krusche and Luna's opinion as well.

"Right. We can exchange stories, and we know where each other is."

Surely we won't be able to pinpoint Ajito in the normal way.

There are risks, but this may be the most effective.

That's why I decided to decide quickly on the "Operation".

There are three roles.

Aria, Krusche, and Luna each dress like town daughters.

"What do you think? Do I look like a proper girl?

Krusche asked a little anxiously.

"I'd rather just look like a girl."

"Ho, ho?

... but for some reason there's a swell in my chest that shouldn't always be there, is it my fault?

Krusche seemed to notice my surprise gaze,

"Mm, I put on an item that looks big on my chest."

Because of that.

"Hmm, is there such a thing," Luna muttered, fingering Krusche's chest.

- Pekopeko.

... sounded kind of very sad.

"Lord Kursche, wouldn't this barete you as soon as you touch it?

"Ugh, shut up. I won't let you touch me. It's okay!

It is a kursche angry with tears.

Each of the three of them is going to walk alone through the city.

And I'll wait in the square just in the center of the city.

If I was in this place, it would have been possible for me to have a conversation almost anywhere they were.

"What do you say, Aria? How's it going?"

'Nothing's wrong so far.... I've been numbered several times.'

He says he gets numbed by a man two or three times an hour.

"How's Krusche?

"I don't get numbed at all. Huh!? Ugh, I guess I don't look like a girl... '

No, 'cause you're not doing it to get numbed, are you?

"I was solicited to compete in what would be a beautiful girl contest"

What is this contest...?

The current time is just noon.

After all, are there no reason for the bandits to carry out just as grand a kidnapping during the day?

That's what I thought. It was about the arrow tip.

'Hey! I was invited to the contest, too! Girls are watching me right! Besides, they told me he was definitely the winner! eheheheheheheheheh'

And now there's some very happy report from Krusche.

"'Cause what is it, that contest..."

"If you win, the prize money will give you something good for your beauty just to compete!

"Oh well...... But unfortunately, I don't have time for that."

'... let it be, at least if you just listen! It'll be over soon!

Kursche is on the rise because she was treated like a rare, beautiful girl...

Well, I usually think Krusche is a pretty girl.

'If that's what you think, you have to say it properly and aggressively from time to time.' Cause that's something I'm glad to hear from you again and again. '

"Aria's right! Even if you flatter me, just because they say she's cute toward her face doesn't mean a woman gets hit so hard!

That's what Aria and Wenus point out.

… for reference.

"Wha?"

"? What's up, Krusche?... Krusche? Hey, you okay?!?

Once the reading was broken. I haven't heard back from the call.

"I see.... apparently this was the Bandits' M.O. '

"Bandits? Is Krusche safe?

Wenus, who knows what's going on over there through Kruschet, tells me, 'Don't worry'.

After a while, Kursche and I reconnected.

"Uh-uh..."

Over the reading, such emotions were conveyed, somewhat discouraged or dissatisfied.

'Lure the girl in, let her smell the hypnotic gas and restrain her where she slept... it seemed like that was their M.O. I'm Amazonas, so I'm more resistant to state anomalies than normal people, and I have pseudo artifacts, so it hardly worked... Now I'm pretending to sleep. "

Apparently, that beautiful girl contest was a bandit trap.

If they say you are an amazing beautiful girl, maybe you can win, etc., then some young women will certainly go after you as cheeky as a kursche.

If you lure them to unpopular places and buildings, it's easy to kidnap them in the daytime.

'... it's terrible! You praised me just now, it was all a lie! But I knew it! You're not cute at all about me anyway!

"That's not true. Krusche is properly cute. If I were a judge of the contest, I'd definitely let Krusche win."

"Huh? Really?

"Oh, it's true"

Quickly, it's me who practices what Aria told me earlier.

No, of course you're not flattering me, are you?

"Eh, eh... I love you, Lucas."

... Ooh, ooh.

Anyway, now the first phase of the hostage operation is a success.
