“I hadn’t thought about it deeply until now, but that could be possible.”

Hazen expressed his irritation at the two’s mysterious conversation.

“What on earth are you talking about? Instead of talking just between the two of you, tell us too!”

“When we hunted in the demonic habitat, there was always someone’s attack.”

“Right. Maybe there was one today too. The only difference was that, since the location was inside the cave, we teleported before their attack began.”

“Ah! Are they looking for us after capturing the demonic creature Vincente and then disappearing without a trace?”

Mitchell’s words received a nod from Kite.

“Probably. They either didn’t know who we were, or even if they did, they might have thought it wasn’t a big deal. Even if not, until a few days later, they couldn’t touch us because of the trade negotiations that would take place.”

“I see. But today, since we defeated the top-grade demonic creature, Duke Kuran probably tried to find the culprit. The fact that someone has come looking for us now means… they’re suspecting us.”

Hazen seemed to understand only now as he nodded.

“He must have been greatly surprised since it was an important monster with the first key. If he knew that we were the ones who dealt with Vincente, he would probably try to kill us right away.”

“Shouldn’t we move the Agit?”

Hazen looked uneasy, and Kite shook her head.

“If we run away, that would imply that we, the ones who defeated the demonic creatures, have revealed ourselves. Moreover, Kuran is a small country. Since the citizens are living in a community where they are all monitoring each other, even if we move the Agit, there won’t be any place for outsiders like us to hide.”

“Then what should we do? Although Ruella’s barrier can block regular armies, it can’t stop demonic creatures.”

In response to Mitchell’s concern, Ruella opened the screen and examined the skill list.

“If you learn the level 90 housing system, you can also block demonic creature attacks.”

Ruella hadn’t tried it up to level 90, so to know the detailed information, she had to put her hand on the skill window and carefully read the description.

Defense against the invasion of normal users and demonic creatures is possible.

Activation condition: If there are at least 5 guild members in the guild belonging to [Dash] with a level over 95 within the guild, it can be designated for use on the guild Agit.]

“Level 90?”

Hazen made a surprised expression.

Even though they all leveled up after defeating Vincente, Ruella was at level 53, and the rest of the comrades were mostly at level 87.

“Now I’m level 53, when will I hit level 90?”

“It won’t take long if you hunt top-grade monsters. Of course, as the level goes up, the leveling speed will slow down, but still, I have the lowest level among the team members, so I’ll gain the most experience.”

“Lower levels get more? Then Ruella, Tien, followed by us, and then Kite will get the least, right?”
“Lower levels get more? Then Ruella, Tien, followed by us, and then Kite will get the least, right?”

Hazen asked, checking his own level.

“Yes. Fortunately, now that I’ve learned the teleportation magic, I can move around freely without worrying about the watchers in front of the mansion. I can also do various quests, and hunting demonic creatures has become easier.”
