Chapter 176 – The Commandos

Yua jumped from pillar to pillar so lightly that it was as if her body had no weight. She had indeed only managed to master the skill after trying for a few days.

Meanwhile, Kimi approached me, who was standing near the pond. “How is it, my lord? Can we do more missions? We’ve rested long enough.”

I was pretty annoyed that the petite elf had asked that question many times over the past few days. “You’re so eager, huh? Just a minute, I’ll check it out.”

Luckily, I was able to check the quest in the pond again.

I certainly wouldn’t have chosen the second quest because it was against my ideology. The third mission as well. How could I let my servants serve another man? Maybe the purpose of the mission was that my servants were asked to find a partner for the man in question.

Still, such a thing was not significant.

My choice fell on the first mission, which sounded very basic. Actually, it would be better if my servants did assignments with a hard difficulty level because I think the chances of encountering things related to scarlet wizards will be greater. However, it seemed that now was not the time.

I signal my servant to come closer.

“You will meet a group that will intercept another group carrying a suspicious package,” I explained. “Sounds straightforward, but you have to be careful.”

The chance that the mission holds something big is very small, but there’s nothing wrong with asking my servants not to let their guard down.

Yua looked at her almost finished shrine. The building is very similar to a traditional Japanese house with a smaller version. Some workers are working on the roof, while others have moved on to build another temple.

“Maybe after returning, my place will be ready.” The kunoichi smiled in satisfaction.

“Don’t linger any longer. We’d better go now.” I gave the order, then looked at Elise. “And don’t worry, Elise. Anja and I will take care of Mona.”

“It’s okay, sir.” The female warrior answered. “Please, take care of her.”

The dog was conscious but still too weak to carry out the mission. The goddess of health said it was possible because Jorge’s new dragon had a strong magic element. Thus, the bursts of fire made wounds more difficult to heal for fantastic beings like the dog.

Elise returned to her temple for a moment to say goodbye to Mona. After that, I gave my blessing by hitting the buttocks of my servants, except for Kimi. This time the petit elf didn’t look at me. She and her two companions then entered the luminous part of the mist.

Anja then came and stood by me. “So, what mission are they going to do this time, sir?”

“Something not special.” I shrugged. “Something they need every now and then so they don’t get too tired doing strenuous missions.”

Raymund’s servants landed on a barren location with rock contours. According to their master’s orders, they lurk first from behind a large rock. There were about seven men with various job classes, and there was a woman in a robe with wavy hair.

“You still remember her, Elise?” Raymund asked. “Please, take care of her.”

“Of course, sir.”

“So, one of them is your friend?” Yua’s question was answered with a nod by Elise.

They came out of hiding, and that made those people alert. No one was surprised at all, a sign that they already knew Raymund’s servants’ whereabouts but chose to pretend they were not.

“Looks like they’re not random people.” Raymund made a guess, starting to think that this mission had something in it.

Yua took a step forward and raised her hand. “We didn’t mean anything bad…”

Suddenly the robed woman with shoulder-length wavy black hair came forward with raised eyebrows. “Elise?”

“Hi, Regina.” The female warrior waved her hand, giving her signature an awkward smile. Even after becoming a badass with that power of darkness, some things didn’t go away from her.

“Long time no see, Elise.” The mage hugged the female warrior.

Sensing something strange, Elise surveyed Regina’s body after those two finished hugging.

“Yeah, I also feel her body is curvier, and her boobs are bigger.” Raymund snorted.

Regina hurriedly whispered to Elise. “Don’t let others know I used magic to modify my body. I just managed to do it, and they haven’t been my friends for long.”

Raymund laughed. “Not bad! Not bad!”

“So, your name is Elise?” One of the men asked as he approached Raymund’s servants. “Is it true that you inspired Gina to never wear underwear? We’ve caught her many times wearing nothing but her robes, and she said you made her like that.”

Those words made Elise freeze. Even Raymund fell silent to digest the absurd words.

Gina scratched her hair and chuckled. “Well, after the incident in Jorge’s field, I’ve come to feel that my magic is more effective if I don’t wear underwear. I don’t know why it happened, but that’s how it is.”

“Well, that’s fine with us.” One of the group members laughed. “So we get free shows at certain times, especially when there are strong winds!”

The rest of the group laughed too.

“Ooh, shut up!” Gina snorted with red cheeks.

“That’s because the center of Mana is in the private parts.” Kimi joined in. “I also don’t wear underwear to make my mana flow more effective.”

“I see.” Gina rubbed her chin. “Interesting theory. We don’t really understand where the center of the Mana source is in our bodies.”

“But, why are you wearing a skirt?” Kimi continued. “Isn’t that dangerous? Why don’t you just wear pants like me?”

The mage shrugged. “I found that more air circulation would make my mana flow smoother.”

“I see.” Kimi nodded.

“No, Kimi.” I cleared my throat before the petite elf said any further. “You wouldn’t do that.”

I don’t want to reduce the pureness of this loli.

“Ah, we haven’t introduced ourselves yet,” Yua said while displaying her friendly smile.

They got to know each other and shook hands. No one suspected Raymund’s servants. Maybe they already believed in Gina, despite the mage claiming that she and the boys hadn’t known each other that long.

“Where, Checo?” Elise asked.

Gina shrugged. “He is running an organization that deals with eradicating drugs. We’ve gotten bigger, you know. However, I prefer to work in the field like this, even though I was offered to take care of it.”

A man with a thin body approached Yua with a blush on his face. He seemed to refrain from staring at the body’s assets belonging to the kunoichi.

“S-sorry, miss.” The man gulped. “May I have a private talk with you?”

“That’s not how you flirt with a girl, Dylan!” One of the group members chortled and was greeted by laughter by the others.

The man named Dylan snorted while Raymund cleared his throat aloud.

The kunoichi looked up with a smile, then said to Dylan. “Sorry, I can’t, sir.”

“He’s not familiar with you yet.” Regina sighed. “There’s no way she will immediately follow your invitation. And we’re here on a mission, not to find partners for sex.”

“Jorge? That motherfucker still alive?” Gina was surprised after Elise mentioned that name while talking about various things.

In the afternoon, the group started making a bonfire accompanied by soft music from Kimi’s lute. Several men flirted with Yua, prompting Raymund to clear his throat several times. However, this time Yua only responded with a casual smile. She didn’t show her seductive side at all.

“But, I already finished him.” Elise gulped. “I made sure he really died.”

“I see.” Gina sighed. “Ah, thank you for coming to this place. We suspect that the group we will confront is a drug transporter under the guise of a textile merchant. They always pay the city guards to keep them from being checked. And their guards are said to be very tough and have great wind magic. Honestly, we are desperate to get help. I did say that our organization is growing, but we still lack people. The production and distribution of opium drugs are widespread. We have to divide up the work.”

“No problem,” Elise responded. “It just so happens that we have orders from Lord Raymund.”

“Speaking of your master….” Gina looked at Elise’s armor and then at Yua’s thin, skimpy outfit. “He’s always had a bad sense of fashion, hasn’t he? How can he let a woman walk in public with so little cloth?” The mage then glanced at Kimi, who was still playing the lute. “Only her has decent clothes. I’m sure it wasn’t your master who chose it.”

“Said the woman who is always in public without underwear,” Raymund responded with a chuckle.
