After that, the hero’s party set to investigating the orphanage.

Were there any suspicious dealings taking place around it? Was there anything strange with the place itself? They used the information-gathering skills they had tempered in their days of adventuring to look into anything they could be a cause for concern.

And it was in that way they found their answer.

The root cause was the bishop who presided over the church that managed the orphanage. The bishop had misappropriated most of the financial support that should have gone to the orphanage and used it to line his own pockets.

Upon learning this, Melvy flew into a rage.

“That is absolutely unforgivable!”

Thus, they marched upon the bishop, resolved to take him into custody. But the bishop was sharper than they had given him credit for. He caught on to the fact that he was being investigated. Just before the heroes could storm into his office, he snuck into the orphanage and took the children there hostage.

“Bwa ha ha ha hah! Don’t you care what happens to these children?! Heroes! First, I’ll need you to put down your weapons!”

“Tsk…”

The bishop holed himself up in a room at the back of the orphanage. He held several children under one arm, a blade pointed at them.

“What do we do, Cain?” Melvy whispered to the hero.

They were in the back room with the bishop, holding a long, fruitless staring contest. They were at an impasse, neither side with the leeway to make any careless moves.

“Normally, I’d have no issue against such a weakling, but... Hey, on that note, what happened to our idiot?”

For some reason, Liz was nowhere to be seen. As long as he had her illusion magic, Cain was certain he could resolve the situation in one fell swoop, but there was nothing he could do if she wasn’t around.

Apparently, Melvy knew precisely which idiot he was referring to. “Um, well, she said, ‘I just need a little more time to complete it, so please go on without me!’ or something along those lines.”

“Complete it? Complete what?”

“Who knows?”

Neither Melvy nor Cain had any idea. Nearly every action Liz took was incomprehensible.

“Here’s what’s going to happen. I’m going to go through that door, and I’m going to get away! Don’t you dare follow me! If I see even the slightest hint that you’re chasing, I’ll kill these kids one by one!” the bishop wailed.

The hostage children sobbed and the sister shrieked in sorrow. The children who hadn’t been taken had rushed over and were watching their friends with great concern.

“I’ll rush him as fast as I can. Support me.”

“Understood.”

Cain whispered his orders.

The plan was simple—attack before he had time to react. Take him out before he had the chance to harm the hostages. Cain would do the heavy lifting, while his comrades would support him. Though perhaps the strategy seemed a bit shaky, it was quite possible for the hero to pull off. No normal person would ever be able to keep up with his movements.

There was, however, one point of concern.
