After the meal, Taura speaks in a calm atmosphere while sipping the after-dinner tea I had made.

Let me start with what happened after I left Rust and headed for King's Landing. As I had been told at the encampment, I began to investigate the source of the circuit board by following its flow from the Alchemy Association. The boards had been delivered to the military via the Armory Association. I happened to have a friend among the Knights who was a follower of the goddess Aleithra. I asked him to search inside the military. It seems that there was a diversion of circuit boards and magic guns there.

Taura clenches her hands tightly. Roa watches Taura with interest.

Taura takes a breath and starts talking again.

"Naturally, the military was in a panic when they found out about the leakage. After all, the accusation came through the Order of the Knights. We can't take this lying down. I was given permission to enter the house of the accused and arrested head of the equipment management department, and even from my point of view it was clear that there were traces of a sorcerer staying there. It seems that the head of the equipment management department may have been brainwashed and manipulated at that point."

"I've heard that there are such illegal arts in witchcraft."

I also responded to Taura's story.

"After that, I followed the footsteps of the sorcerer in cooperation with the knights, but many times I was just one step away from the sorcerer. But strangely enough, the sorcerer seemed to have continued to hide in the capital even under such circumstances. It was as if he still had some business he could not leave the capital.

There, Taura takes a sip of tea.

"It is indeed strange. Normally I would leave King's Landing," said Lois.

"In the meantime, there was an attack by feathered armored Salmons in King's Landing.

"Yes, I heard. The building of the Alchemy Society was damaged.

Yes, strangely enough, all the armored salmon seemed to be targeting only the Alchemy Association. I was somewhere else, fighting with stray armored salmon. After that, there were still reports of sorcerer sightings, but one day they stopped.

"One day?" And Loa.

"Yes, the day the demons were rumored to have appeared in King's Landing.

Then we looked at each other, me and Taura.

"I've never heard of it," I say. Roa nodded silently next to me.

"It's just a rumor. It's just that they were a new kind of demon tribe," said Taura.

"They say there are only seven demon tribe now..."

I ask Roa and Taura to make sure.

Roa says, "Yes, Master Kalin defeated one of them, and there are now seven instead of eight.

"Oh, that's how Kalin came to be called a hero, isn't it? Kalin, you are very strong against those who can use force.

I nod and mutter.

"Let me get back to the story, if you don't mind," said Taura. I nodded in small increments.

"From what I've been told, the demon tribe was also eventually captured by the military who rushed to the scene, but they were not strong enough. And immediately after that, the sightings of the sorcerer stopped.

"It's... I take a sip of my tea.

"I thought as much. The demon tribe that is said to be closest to the capital is one that is rumored to be at the bottom of the northern sea, beyond the frontier. I also heard that the winged armored salmon that appeared in King's Landing at about the same time also came from the sea beyond the northern frontier."

"Is that all there is to it?" I can't help but ask.

"Well, I didn't have a choice, since there were no other clues there," he said. So I came by boat to explore the northern sea, but unfortunately my boat capsized on the way. We made it to the beach just in time, but it seemed to be the territory of the half-fish. The rest is as you know," Taura finished.

I pour more tea into Taura's empty teacup.

"How did Rust and the others end up there?" Taura's questioning begins in reverse.
