Then they increased their speed and ran towards the direction of the sound.

This is what they saw when they arrived at the city gate.

It was the moment when Murphy, whose armor and clothes were torn, cut off the dragon's head with a sword.

Old Jed and the group of monsters were shocked by the scene.

They stood in silence at the city gate for a long time without saying a word.

Then they saw Murphy's body begin to sway, as if she was about to fall down at the next moment.

Lord Weiss and the surrounding monsters became anxious and wanted to rush out to check on Murphy's condition.

However, they were stopped by Old Jed.

"you----"

"Wait a minute, look over there."

The monsters were a little angry and were about to question him why he stopped them.

But then they heard what Old Jed said to calm their anger.

Then they looked in the direction that Old Jed pointed.

There was a petite girl in a gray robe whom they did not recognize.

She rushed to Murphy who was about to fall, and hugged him, as if trying to support him.

But it was meaningless, they saw the petite figure being pinned to the ground by Murphy.

Then----

Then they could see nothing more as the two men fell to the ground.

But from where they are standing now, they can't see clearly.

Only Old Jed, who was blind in one eye but had excellent eyesight because he was a thief, could see clearly what was happening there.

Then, the monsters around him noticed that his expression started to become strange again.

'Hey, this guy has something.'

"That potion was not cheap, and the little girl poured it all on him."

"Huh? Why did the little girl kiss me?"

"Oh my god, I can't bear to watch this anymore."

'...'

"Ah... it's great to be young."

The surrounding monsters looked at Old Jed's strange yet somewhat emotional expression and couldn't help but ask.

"Mr. Gerard, what exactly happened there?"

"Yes, Mr. Gerald, how is Lord Murphy?"

"..."

Although Lord Weiss did not ask Old Jed directly, he also gave him a questioning look.

"Well...it's alright."

"That little girl is an S-rank adventurer who came with me, but we got separated before."

"She just sprinkled the healing potion on that brat."

Old Jed was silent for a long time, until the monsters around him began to get a little impatient.

He withdrew his gaze from watching the show and slowly began to explain.

After explaining, Old Jed pondered for a while, thinking about what to say next.

After all, he didn't want to disturb his cheap apprentice and affect his romantic luck that had just arrived.

After a while, he continued speaking.

"Should we wait and go over there?"

"They have something inconvenient over there, and we don't want to disturb them."

Although he was speaking serious words, his mind was full of random thoughts.

"A-class magicians... they are the richest people in the Kingdom of Leiden."

"If he really gets hooked up with this brat, his future life will probably be miserable."

"Hehe, then I can drink good wine every day."

What he was thinking about was probably the future happy life of his disciple.

And there is also fine wine that I can drink every day in the future.

Old Jed is actually not short of money, but he is a selfish old fox.

His motto has always been: "Wine you buy yourself is not as good as wine given to you by others."

But at this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in his mind.

The moment this figure appeared, Old Jed shuddered.

Then he quickly denied what he had just said and spoke again.

"No, I was wrong just now. There's nothing going on over there right now."

"Let's go check on that brat's wound first. It would be bad if he has any sequelae."

After saying these words which were completely opposite to what he had said before, he took the lead and walked directly in the direction where the two men fell.

As for why...

Old Jade is Lars' former S-rank adventurer, after all.

Even though he has long since retired and become a gangster, his intelligence network is still extremely powerful.

If he wanted to know what had happened around his cheap apprentice, it would not be difficult.

And the figure that just appeared in his mind, and the things that he did to his apprentice behind his back.

Even he, who was well-informed, found some parts of it difficult to accept.

Looking at Old Jed who had changed his tone, the monsters around him scratched their not-so-bright heads in confusion.

However, they still followed Old Jed's footsteps and walked towards the direction where the two men fell.

-------------------------------------

"Mr. Gerald."

"Miss Candice, let me help you get him up."

Old Jed walked over to where the two had fallen and helped Murphy up.

Then he put his left hand on his shoulder to support him.

Candice also climbed up, her face looking a little red.

Because she didn't know whether the embarrassing things she had just done were seen by this extremely shrewd old adventurer.

Just as she stood up, she suddenly saw the group of monsters following Old Jed.

Her expression immediately became serious.

Then she took two steps forward, stood in front of Murphy, picked up her wand and pointed it at the group of monsters.

"Don't be nervous, they won't hurt this brat."

"how do you know?"

"I'll explain it to you later. Let's go into the city first."

"......it is good."

Just as Candice was about to construct the magic circle, Old Jed behind her interrupted her.

It might be because the monsters raised their hands and showed no aggression, as well as their trust in the senior adventurers.

Let her decide to trust them for now.

But she did not let her guard down, but kept staring at the group of monsters that came to check on Murphy's condition.

It seemed as if it would attack in the next second if the situation was not right.

Old Jed looked at her sharp eyes and suddenly felt that she was like a little female cat protecting her cubs.

"Lord Weiss, I have already examined the wound."

"It's all been taken care of by Miss Candice. It's not fatal."

"Let the doctor in the Labyrinth City handle it first. Then I'll take him to Lars Church for treatment."

"Thanks, Gerald."

Old Jed turned around and suggested this to Westdom, who nodded at him.

After saying this, Westden turned around and lowered his head to Candice who had been staring at them.

Then, I thanked her solemnly.

"Ms. Candice, thank you for helping Master Murphy take care of his wounds."

"From now on, you are our Enoch City's eternal friend."

"...Mr. Westom, it's nothing."

Looking at such a polite old goat, Candice was stunned for a moment, then shook her head.

"Meffy... So this is the hero's name?"

"That sounds really nice..."

'This old goat is doing pretty well.'

After learning the name of her hero, her mood became very good.

Now, even her aggressiveness seems to be slightly lower than before.

But this situation only lasted for a short moment, because——

"Thank you, human child! For helping us take care of Master Murphy!"

"Yeah! You may not look big, but you're pretty capable! You're actually an S-rank adventurer!"

It was Doug and Carl who said the above words to Candice with a smile.

Although these two idiots knew that the other was a strong man, they were unconsciously deceived by the other's petite body.

So he said something that showed no respect for the “strong”.

But after saying these two sentences, they suddenly shuddered.

"Strange, Carl, why is it so cold?"

"Yeah Doug, why is it so cold?"

Old Jed, who was standing by, heard what the two of them said and Candice's expression gradually became gloomy.

I thought to myself, "Oh no! These two idiots!"

Then he quickly changed the subject and saved the two idiots who didn't know what was going on.

"Thank you later. Let's send this brat inside to treat his wounds first."

"it is good."

When Candice mentioned the injuries Murphy had suffered, she seemed to calm down a little and nodded to Old Jed.

Then, she followed the group of monsters and Old Jed and walked towards the city deep in the maze.
