Year 7445, Month 7, Day 25
They were making expressions drained of life.
Since we finished our conversation we teleported to the surface.
................
After listening to my prediction we all left the dungeon and walked straight to the temple. There's two temples in Baldukk but the small one currently has no priests(someone comes on full moons) so the only option is to go to the large one. The 20 of us walk through the town of Baldukk that's become completely dark until we arrived in front of the temple.
The Rindobel couple including Bin and Haruku are tied up with rope but the 16 of us are surrounding them fortifying the area, no matter how you think about it escape is impossible. In the first place Koritto's fingers are broken. I broke Meiria's teeth. Zemyunel was beaten up quite a bit and has his tail between his legs. Haruku is the only one who's as energetic as he was since he was healed but no desire to flee can be seen in him. Even if they were to try and run in this situation they would just get caught right away and dragged back though.
The temples don't run business 24 hours so we ended up setting up camp in front of the temple like this until tomorrow morning. Of course with everyone. Since I didn't pay any money and don't have any grudge I wanted to return to the inn to rest but I read the atmosphere and decided to endure it. On the way here Faruergaz sent his slaves to go and buy some food.
In the morning, after confirming that the members of the temple arrived at work Koritto along with his escort Kamu entered the temple.
THe priest or whatever at the entrance used {Status Open} on Koritto and said the words we told him to ahead of time. "I'm cancelling the contract on my locker so I'd like you to bring all of the contents of it". The only one allowed into the locker is the person them self after their {Status} has been confirmed. Other people even if they're family aren't allowed inside. However, if you cancel the contract then it's a different matter. Since it's just a matter of bringing all of the contents of it, there's no need for the person them self to go.
Shortly after they returned with an inflated sack that we had prepared ahead of time.
It's not as if I don't feel like this is overdoing things but since everyone's worries are quite natural(Since there's no meaning if Koritto intentionally limits the amount of money he takes out and says "This is all the money we have remaining.") I decided to remain silent without meddling.
Since the Rindobel couple's room at "Mogorito Manor" was too cramped Kamu paid 10 silver coins and reserved the usual "Foton" from this morning. Everyone returned to their inns once in order and went to grab their certificate of payment like things. Kamu said to come back quickly without doing anything unnecessary. That is~ this sort of situation after all. There's no way they'd be allowed to relax and take their time or take a shower.
We counted just in case but Koritto and the others entire fortune in just gold coins was over 190 pieces. If you include gold Shu as well then it was close to 200,000,000. Even if you force them to pay back all of the damage at the current point that leaves 160,000,000 remaining. It's not as if there wasn't anyone who tried to put their hands on that but Kamu stopped them with a glare.
"Now with this, there's already no one who hasn't gotten the charm or their money back right? Everyone's definitely gotten their money back right?"
After everyone nodded to her, Kamu returned the money to the sack again. After that she gave the certificates of payment or whatever to Misu and had her burn them.
"We returned all of your money. This is fine right?"
Koritto said to Kamu.
Kamu ignored those words and told everyone.
"Now then, we finished adjusting the money. However, I think everyone already knows we can't finish things with this. Just like Greed-kun said yesterday, I'm sure some time is necessary to cool our heads down."
She said before looking closely at Faruergaz's two slaves and sat down on a chair while saying, "You two, I'm sorry but could you go and call out the {Slaughterers}? Once they get here everyone can rest for a short period."
However, if it's this time then most of the {Slaughterers} should be running. They'll probably be running for another hour or so. Since it couldn't be helped I said, "Most like they're in the middle of training right now. I think they'll return within another hour or so. After that they should have breakfast so I think that would be the easiest time to catch them. If they wait in front of Boil Manor then they should all come back once." Since Zenom doesn't go running. As expected I doubt they would go and eat breakfast scattered after that.
Everyone has quite a bit of fatigue built up but if it's just this level then if they were thinking of clearing through the 1st or 2nd floors without me then it would still be easier having less targets to be cautious of. For the time being we had some breakfast and waited for the {Slaughterers} to return. Just in case the two slaves bought some breakfast and went to Boil Manor early with it in hand.
After leaving watching the four to the {Slaughterers} we all returned to our inns and it was decided we'd return here again in the evening. It seems that Kamu and Misu are going to take turns remaining. Since they're both women I'm sure they at least want to take a shower, either their sense of responsibility is too strong, or their anger is..being a leader is hard right.

Year 7445, Month 7, Day 26
It's Vurihaima and others from {Verdure.Brotherhood}.
"Yo~ Greed-kun. It seems like things have gotten quite crazy on your end."
"Ah, Viruhaima-san. Well, there's no need to worry. Things will end up however they go."
"Greed-kun, he's making this sort of face but don't mind it. Recently all our leader has talked about is you. We were starting to wonder if he's a maiden in love. Here, feel free to head off already. Right now, things are difficult right?"
Basu cut off Viruhaima as he was about to continue saying something and told me to go ahead.
It seems I was the slowest one. Though that's the case it seems most of the members arrived at a time not much earlier than me and were drinking some disgusting ale and eating cheap food.
"Everyone's gathered right. Everyone from the {Slaughterers}, thank you for your cooperation. It could be possible we might contact you again tomorrow, I'm very sorry but at that time we're relying on you again. If there's no contact then don't worry about us."
Kamu said that and politely lowered her head to the members of the {Slaughterers} who were lined up in seats along the wall.
"It seems I was late, I'm sorry about that."
I lower my head to everyone and sit at the edge seat while ordering some beer, cooked beans, and roast pork.
"Now then, everyone has gathered. And then there's no one here except for {Sun.Ray}. We can talk freely."
Kamu stood at the side of the four who are sitting on the bare ground, with her hand at her hip as she starts talking. Since Kamu is a gnome her height is considerably low. Though her face and figure are those of a splendid adult but I'm sure if you saw her from a bit further distance away she would look like either an upper grade elementary or middle school student, it just looks like a class president with a good physique is talking.
"Please wait just a minute."
The one who said that, stood up, and glanced at me was Hirosukol. Is he going to pick a fight with me about something again?
"Is Greed-san a member of {Sun.Ray}? It seemed like they were saying something about him returning to the {Slaughterers} again yesterday though.."
Ah, that sort of thing. However, I wonder what it is. Even with how gentle I am, I'm starting to get pissed off.
Normally they were lending them to people and taking rent. They must have dreamed of living in one of the better of those houses when they retired.
.............
Now then, the problem is me. After we handed the four of them over to the knight group, in front of the gate to the knight group station, I said to Kamu and the remaining 15 members of {Sun.Ray} that I would be leaving the party. This is a gamble. But you know, everyone's expressions when we obtained the magic stones from ogres, their faces when they were showing admiration for my combat abilities, their faces moved to tears when I magnificently ran up in a crisis and saved them, it's just my prediction but...
