“Man, the boss sure can be trouble sometimes.”

The real trouble, however, was that the Archdemon was currently on the verge of collapsing just from clinging to Nephy, but for better or worse, Kuroka and Shax had no way of knowing that fact. They were currently stuck in the fortress city, Feo. It had a grand title, but it was actually a desolate town surrounded by the ruins of a fortress wall. According to rumors, the walls stood tall over a thousand years ago. But now, at the best of times, the local populace didn’t even inhabit a fourth of the town, and even the vegetation in the area was sporadic and withering.

Despite all this, judging by how it had been built upon bedrock and had wells dug in place, it had clearly once been a prosperous stopover in the middle of a land route through the continent. Apparently, when the concept of countries had vanished, the walls lost their purpose, which led to the fortress’s quick demise. Now few passed by, and most who came were ruffians and drifters living in destitution.

This desolate town was where Kuroka and Shax’s pursuit of Shere Khan had taken them. Upon searching the area, they had found their quarry. The Archdemon’s hideout was either in the city or its surroundings.

Seeing Shax mutter to himself with a grimace after finishing his regular report, Kuroka looked at him in confusion. Zagan wasn’t one to give people unreasonable work. Shax had been traveling to complete his tasks the last few days, so his stubble was more rampant than usual. His hair was also about a third longer and rather unkempt. Despite his height, he looked unreliable due to his bent back. Still, he was the sorcerer Zagan trusted the most right after his two immediate retainers.

He grumbles a lot, but in the end, he’ll end up doing something about it.

Kuroka looked up at Shax, the triangular ears atop her head twitching. She was a cait sith, so she possessed both cat and human ears, as well as two tails. She wore clothes modeled after a native dress of Liucaon, but in sharp contrast, she had a cane from the church in her hands.

Over the last few days, they had finally traced the goods Shere Khan had been ordering to their final destination.

“Is there some sort of problem?” Kuroka asked with a cock of her head.

“Oh, no. Nothing that serious. He just said a new job is waiting for me when I get back.”

“That just goes to show how much he relies on you,” Kuroka replied with a smile. “He isn’t the type of person to rely on others unless he truly trusts them.”

Tracing Shere Khan’s whereabouts was a high-priority task as well. Seeing this sorcerer, who didn’t even have a second name, being regarded so highly made Kuroka feel as happy as if it had directly involved her.

“So if there’s another job waiting, that means we’re going back already?” Kuroka asked.

With teleportation, they could be back at the castle in an instant.
