“I see… I was deceived, huh… Because I’ve been playing around with men all this time, I thought I could see through them, manipulate them as I pleased… But now I keenly feel how wrong I was… Despite witnessing so many who disappeared because of that, I foolishly believed I would be ‘just fine’… How pathetic…”

The woman seemed to grasp the situation.

That’s why she began to regret her own incompetence, biting her lower lip.

“Can we save the self-doubt for after we’re out of here? For now, let’s keep moving forward. I intend to crush the organization that has exploited women so much until now, before its boss escapes.”

“Y-yeah, got it… But are you sure you can handle this alone?”

“An organization like this, no matter how many are gathered, won’t stand a chance against me.”

“That’s reassuring… Even though I’m in no position to say this after being deceived and needing protection, please don’t push yourself too hard.”

“I’ll be fine on that front. I can’t afford to die here. If I judge that I can’t protect you, I’m sorry, but I’ll have to leave you behind.”

“Haha, I’ll do my best to ensure that doesn’t happen.”

“We’re already running quite late. Should we start making our escape soon?”

Brett was punctual, so it felt odd that he would be late in procuring the goods this time.

“No, I can’t imagine anyone in this town capable of taking down Brett. Plus, there have been no reports of such a person arriving in the city, nor of the Empire’s Seven Knights coming to dismantle the underground organization… So, does that mean this time’s catch is particularly valuable?”

That’s why I’m somewhat wary that something might have happened to Brett. At the same time, I trusted Brett to a certain extent.

I’m confident I won’t lose to Brett, but if he’s on the defensive, I won’t be able to kill him in a day.

If I have about three days, I can aim for Brett’s magic exhaustion and defeat him. On the other hand, even I would need quite some time to defeat Brett if I were to take him down.

Considering that, being delayed by just about ten minutes should be within the margin of error.

“Speaking of which, there’s a rumor that a new Dragonoid girl has appeared in the Adventurers Guild, said to be the A-rank adventurer Aisha. Even if it were her, she wouldn’t be Brett’s enemy…”
