Chapter 434: Being Overheard

Waking up early in the morning in the Sanctuary Mansion, I headed to the first floor. As ever, Sylph and the Great Spirits were there.

「Oh Takumi, good morning.」

「Yeah, mornin’, Sylph. You too Selene, Nyx, mornin’.」

「Good morning Takumi. We’re visiting.」

「......morning.」

I was puzzled at the unusual combination of Sylph, Selene, and Nyx. Selene and Nyx have come together, but I don’t think I’ve seen the just the three of them come.

「This is a rare combo.」

I sat on the sofa and Mabel brewed coffee and served it to me.

The girls we hired en masse are being trained by Maribelle in the Volton Mansion right now. That’s why, right now, the four experienced maids Mabel, Sala, Anna, Tifa paired up and work in shifts in the Sanctuary Mansion and come and go between the Sanctuary and Volton.

Right now, Mabel and Tifa were on duty in the Sanctuary.

「......there’s a lot of bad guys.」

「Eh?」

Nyx muttered like she usually does, but I couldn’t make sense of what she was saying.

「He won’t understand with just that. Oh perfect, Sophia has come. I will explain.」

Confirming that Sophia had entered the living room, Sylph began spoke in more detail.

「That orc-like old elf that had lost the blessing of the Spirits as well as the boss of a dark guild who also lost the blessing are targeting Takumi.」

「Eh!?」

「Ah, Sophia.」

Sylph’s words caused Sophia to twitch and freeze, showing a look of surprise and of disgust.

「Are you alright?」

「Wha!? They hadn’t learned their lesson!?」

Instead of Earl Hordia, Sophia was saying that she was far more concerned about the boss of the organization that attacked and injured me before, who made his way to Wedgefort without any regard for the risks. Maria looked up, perhaps remembering what had happened back then, and Laeva spoke hatefully.

「Yeah, I’m not really sure why, but it could be that the dark guild values their honor. They must want compensation for their hideouts in Valkyra Kingdom which were destroyed, and many of their subordinates who were either arrested or killed.

It was then that the Great Spirits let us know there was even more information.

「Takumi, that’s not all.」

「The two foolish nobles you had a dispute with in Samandour went to Wedgefort as well.」

「......they brought Samandour’s dark guilds and their private armies.」

「Uwaa, they just don’t learn...」

Should I admire their unwavering spirit despite getting in that much trouble?

「Still, how did you guys uncovered this?」

「Wind is freedom, you know.」

「Light and dark exists everywhere.」

「......yes.」

When I asked Sylph, Selene, and Nyx how they caught on to the Dark Guild and Earl Hordia’s schemes against us, they boasted that there was no place where the Wind, Light, and Dark Spirits couldn’t reach. Spirits gather particularly in Wedgefort and Valor which are near the Sanctuary.

「Fua~ what’s up? Everyone’s gathering so early in the morning?」

「「「「............」」」」

It was then that a yawning Akane walked into the living room. It was inevitable that the carefree Akane was pierced by the cold stares from everyone.
