The fourth day of the trip to join the kingdom army.

Our journey, which seemed to be leisurely, began to be hindered by the Demon King’s army early in the morning.

“Guest, pretend to be on the right side of the front.”

“Oh, I think there are ten, right?”

“Exactly. I think I can still avoid it. What should I do?”

“Hu... It’s annoying, so let’s just pass by.”

Their pursuit is nothing new. This is because the voluntary taxpayer was faithful enough to betray to the point of being called the original Chalberus, and we had already been informed that the Demon King’s Army would search the area if the patrol did not contact us for a certain period of time.

That itself was within the expected range, but the problem was its scale and accuracy.

“How are these babies in front of us?”

It’s already the fifth time that we almost ran into the Demon King’s army, which outpaced our movement route with a fairly high degree of precision that made us wonder if it was being monitored by artificial satellites somewhere.

The first attack was the Demon King’s army, which appeared only tens of meters ahead with a sudden movement in space. Out of the 10 Demon Lords who appeared with a wizard at the center, the one who found us calmly and calmly sent out a signal. It was after throwing an ax and a needle at the field.

The reason why I was able to eject the ax and the needle without hesitation was because of my senses that did not subside easily because I had become very sensitive after arguing with Rich. Because of the attack that was attempted in an unexpected way, at first, I was sweating, wondering if the Demon King’s army had completed even a pinpoint assault unit, but it was just a coincidence, so I didn’t encounter them directly after that.

However, it’s not the worst, and even though I’m moving as fast as I can while paying special attention to the traces, it’s a problem enough that the Demon King’s army keeps getting caught in the radar network of Carl Kansi and me.

“Hey, did you forget to tell us something?”

Since he’s such a cooperative guy, it’s hard to see that he’s lying, so I asked him in passing, but the answer that came back was the same.

“That, it can’t be. I’m sure there was a time in the past when the news was cut off and I went to search, but it wasn’t like this.”

“Then did you just sell your feet then?”

“Yes. I’ve never heard of using troops with a magician who can teleport.”

Even now, not only is he talking with his voice as low as possible, but he is not doing other tricks, so that expression of regret in the world adds credibility.

If it’s acting, I’ll just fool you once and cut your throat later.

“So I’m saying, are they really going after you or the patrol that I belonged to?”

“...what?”

The cause or reason was unknown, so the taxpayer who voluntarily presented a new opinion in the midst of trying to solidify his direction to join as quickly as possible, continued his talk, worrying that his voice might be found out.

“Well, as you all know, no matter how much the demon army is, space movement wizards aren’t so exhausting.

When I glanced at Emmet at his argument, he immediately nodded in agreement as if there was nothing to worry about.

“It’s no coincidence that we’ve come close to each other five times.”

“It’s the same idea. That’s how this hypothesis fits.”

“Uh... so, you’re assuming they’re right that they’re not trying to catch us, but trying to find someone else in our path?”

“Not just someone, but enough to make them decide to gather all the teleportation mages in the area and conduct a massive search.”

They are not on the run, and they are not in a situation where they are searching for deserters, and they are the ones whose routes overlap with ours.

Carl Kansi quickly understood the situation.

“Did you move a detached team to find us in the kingdom army?”

“Including someone important enough to make them think that if they capture the detached team, they might be able to break through this isolated situation.”

“It’s not that they’re falling in front of us, it’s that we’re approaching them from behind.”

Opinions were finalized with the words of a voluntarily taxpayer who understood the contents belatedly.

It is impossible to specify who the members of the detached unit are, but at least it will not be Ragnis. The position of Marquis of Levien is not that light. But no matter who he is, he is definitely a very valuable person to us.

And unlike ours, the location of the detached unit was revealed to some extent for some reason, and it was put in a dangerous situation where it might encounter troops approaching 500 people if it was wrong.

“I’ll go back and fix a patrol.”

It was the moment when, though tired, he had a reason to fight the patrol he had just passed by.
