No-Good People

My, you arent surprised.

You received the report from the group of knights, didnt you say that? It doesnt feel like you hid it?

Well, I didnt now did I?

Haku-san giggled while looking delighted.

But, what was your reason for training the [Ordinary Cave] into a weak dungeon?

Because she is cute though I would like to say that, its to protect No. 695-chan. Thats the reason I was truly surprised when I heard that the bandits were settled down.

In order to protect Rokuko, is it? Why?

Shes my lovely younger sister you know? Though I wish I could give her a guard to keep anyone from invading, wouldnt the opposite happen by attracting the eye of Kami-samas vanguard and become hunted? With that, I made certain to hide her as much as possible Well? I wonder if my response satisfies you?

Satisfies me huh?

If I say it, I still might be stuck.

Your reason to hunt other dungeon cores?

In order for knights to become Sage Knights, they needed the experience from breaking a dungeon core, according to the story.

In other words, Haku-san was intentionally having them do so.

While protecting Rokuko, she attacked other cores. Or rather, the dungeon core was almost destroyed by the bandit suppression due to that.

No. 695-chan has no relation to that otherwise, Kami-samas vanguard would hunt me.

For your own benefit. A very easy reason to understand.

Im convinced.

Is there anything else you wish to hear? Since this is a special occasion, Ill answer you know?

Very generous. The reason for that?

Yes, well, this is a reward. I had heard it from No. 695-chan, but all of the bandits who kicked No. 695-chans core, down to the very last one, was exterminated without a chance for escape. You would have had to go on a hunt in the mountain if you missed even one.

Hmm, I see. Then I wonder about hearing more of becoming a Sage Knight?

Come to think of it, one of those knights who came here tried to destroy the core.

Right! Those seventeen knights, they tried to stab a sword into No. 695-chan to gain favor, something like that was in the report, can you believe it!? Seriously, humans are no-good since they cant understand how cute No. 695-chans core is right? They deserve to be executed, all of them! Since its impossible to write No. 695-chan into their offenses, Ill fabricate some minor treason against the country for the unit of knights. No, perhaps theres no choice but to end it a simple salary cut for the ones that attempted to damage No. 695-chan to give them thoughts of treason? That way it will be a legitimate execution. Ahh, I wonder if the people concerned are returning to the royal capital without knowing anything?

Ah, this person is a no-good person. Moreover, its a waste of authority to settle it like that.

Something like executing all of the knights goes beyond being dreadful politics!

Oh my, I wonder if you think that is going too far?

No, not at all. Ah, those guys, I figured if there were other bandits, itd be appropriate for adventurers to take care of it somehow.

Hmm, extra offenses then.

Ill keep taking advantage of this for now. Itll be dangerous if I go about this poorly.

Well, Im starting to understand this a little. This person is definitely not an enemy to Rokuko.

After all, the basis of her actions is Rokuko. She wouldnt become Rokukos enemy so long as we dont hinder Haku-san.

By the way, what were you saying about Sage Knights a bit ago?

Sage Knights? Ah, thats just a vague title change. Destroying cores is useless unless youre Kami-samas vanguard. By doing something like contributing to the circulation of mana, it seems their favor does increase

Ah, in the end Ill, about vanguards silence.

I dont feel like destroying dungeon cores so please forgive me.

Un. You seem incompetent by doing nothing but sleeping, but I will tentatively recognize you as No. 695-chans master.

Looks like I was accepted If shes not an enemy, thats good.

A bad person is inside of the beautiful-foot person no, sorry, itd be wonderful to be stepped on by a villain like that.

However, lets have a dungeon battle.

Haha anooother term I dont know sprung up. Moreover, it sounds troublesome. Please give me a break.
