Even Accelerator and Kakine Teitoku have disappeared.

"About this, Black Rabbit."

As Leticia spoke, she handed her something she was holding.

It was a letter.

Clearly, this was the invitation to the so-called "Fire Dragon Birth Festival" that Kakine Teitoku was reading at the time.

It's easy to guess that these problem children, led by Izayoi Sakamaki, must have read this letter before leaving and heading towards the North District to participate in this birth festival.

"Then, those problem child adults! Why didn't they discuss it with Black Rabbit before setting off for the North District?!"

"It may be rude of me to say this, Black Rabbit, but in my opinion, if we choose to discuss this matter with you... then the three masters probably wouldn't be called problem children by you."

After carefully reading through the contents of the letter, Black Rabbit's expression gradually darkened.

She could already imagine what those three problem children would do once they arrived in the North District.

"How could this happen... The 'Fire Dragon Birth Festival'...! If those three problem children cause any trouble over there—!"

"Black Rabbit, do you really not want them to go to the 'Fire Dragon Birth Festival'?"

Upon hearing Leticia's question, Black Rabbit immediately shook her head.

"Of course not! But the 'Fire Dragon Birth Festival'... the event mentioned in this letter is organized by a community that has the status of a leader of the Northern District!"

Given the problematic personalities of Izayoi Sakamaki and her fellow troublemakers, it would be virtually impossible for them not to cause trouble in such a large and entirely new area as the North Ward.

This is what Black Rabbit feared would happen.

“Indeed… if the three masters do something irreversible over there, it will be terrible. The other party is the hierarchy ruler of the North District and the organizer of the ‘Fire Dragon Birth Festival’. It certainly won’t be easy to clean up the mess then.”

"Really! It's not like Black Rabbit won't let them go... but at least they should have discussed it with Black Rabbit first!"

Furthermore, Ren was also taken away, including a girl with animal ears named Lily, who was also one of the more than 120 child members of 'NoName'.

"I don't know where Accelerator and the other two have gone, but... but I think they wouldn't have gone to the North District without even discussing it, like those three problem children, would they?"

"That's hard to say. In any case, we can be certain that they haven't used the boundary gate for teleportation yet."

The so-called boundary gate is actually like a portal for spatial teleportation, which can teleport people across vast distances in a very short time.

The fact that the money in the community's treasury was not affected means that these problem children did not rely on this money to move through the boundary gate.

…However, on the other hand…

"If it were Accelerator, it seems like he could have reached the North District directly without using the Boundary Gate!"

If that's the case, perhaps Izayoi Sakamaki and the others simply used Accelerator's power to leave.

"It's not too late to catch up now."

Leticia then directly reminded Black Rabbit.

"With your speed, catching up with them shouldn't be too much of a problem... If something unexpected happens, you can use your privileges as a member of the Little Garden Noble to open the Boundary Gate for free, so reaching the Northern District shouldn't be a problem."

"I understand... Well then, I'll have to trouble Lady Leticia to look after the house for the time being!"

After Black Rabbit bowed respectfully to say goodbye, her long, dark blue hair instantly turned deep red.

boom--! !

A series of loud bangs exploded, and the rabbit vanished without a trace.

"...North District, huh?"

If Leticia's guess is correct, then not only Izayoi Sakamaki, but also Accelerator and the others have headed towards the North District.

Although she had only known that person for a short time, Leticia did not believe that Accelerator was like Izayoi Sakamaki and the others, and that he had only approached the North Ward for fun.

But if we calculate it this way...

What exactly is the reason that Accelerator and the others decided to head to the North District?

Leticia just couldn't quite understand this.

——————————————————————————————————

The small garden, the eastern branch of the community "ThousandEyes".

The female shop assistant in charge of guarding the door was standing at the entrance with a very displeased expression.

"...I've really had enough."

About an hour ago, a group of people belonging to 'NoName' had already arrived here.

White Demon, as a member of the community, welcomed them. There were three of them, one man and two women. The female shop assistant had seen these three before, but their personalities were all the kind that tended to be... flamboyant and unreasonable.

To put it simply, they are a group of problem children.

"What on earth is going on... We already sent away a group of problem children, so how come a new batch has arrived now?!"

About a few minutes ago, three more people arrived at the branch store—they were also members of the community 'NoName'.

One man, one woman, and another strange person whose gender was indistinguishable by any means, whose whole body was full of oddities.

Just as the female shop assistant was about to lose her temper after seeing these annoying guys from 'NoName' again, the white-haired, red-eyed, gender-ambiguous weirdo glanced at her, and she immediately felt weak in the limbs. Fortunately, the White Demon stepped in in time and took them into the house.

Although I hate to admit it, these guys who came out of the mere 'NoName' are probably not to be trifled with.

"Could someone from outside please bring in some tea and pastries?"

"I understand! Lord White Demon!"

"Hmm~ You sound a bit... no, you sound quite dissatisfied. What's wrong?"

"No, that's not true, Lady White Demon! I'll get you some tea right away!!"

Of course I'm not unhappy... those guys are really annoying!!

But no matter how dissatisfied she was, she could only keep it to herself. The female shop assistant forced herself to suppress her anger, quickly made water, took out the prepared pastries, picked up everything, and brought it all into the store.

wow-

First, open the door, then pick up the things from the table and go inside.

An indescribable atmosphere immediately enveloped his entire body.

"Well--?"

The female shop assistant was so frightened that her legs trembled and she almost fell to the ground.

What...what happened?

"Miss, are you alright?"

The girl sitting on the outermost side of the room, the one with the light blue twin ponytails, was the first to ask me a question.

"I saw you almost fall just now..."

"No, it's nothing..."

The female shop assistant blinked before noticing the specific situation inside the room.

The white-haired man and the brown-haired man were sitting in front, and then the White Demon himself was sitting opposite the three of them.

"Huh? What are you still doing here?"

When White Demon saw that the female shop assistant was still in the room, he immediately waved to her.

"Get out of here. Someone like you should try to avoid staying in rooms like this."

What does that mean? Does it mean you look down on me?

As the female shop assistant was thinking this, she suddenly realized where the aura that had almost made her fall to the ground came from.

front.

The strange man with white hair and red eyes sitting at the very end.

He didn't even look at me directly; he was just sitting in this room... yet he was constantly emitting an unimaginable aura.

It's like... an aura.

"This is not a place for a petty girl like you. You just need to bring up the things for the guests. Okay, now get out of here."

White Demon repeated what he had just said.

The female shop assistant blinked and carefully placed the plate of pastries and tea on the table.

During the journey, she vaguely glanced at the strange man with white hair and red eyes out of the corner of her eye.

…without any expression.

He was completely oblivious to himself, or rather, he was aware of him but had no intention of looking over.

It felt like my whole body was being gripped tightly, and even my heart was being squeezed to the extreme.

"...Excuse me."

All the displeasure she had felt vanished, and the female shop assistant immediately nodded and left the room.

The door was slammed shut.

"Oh dear, these young girls nowadays are really something, they can't even handle a slightly bigger scene."

"...What exactly are you thinking?"

After witnessing all this, Accelerator looked at White Demon speechlessly.

"Why let someone like that in? Just to make her tremble like a mouse seeing a cat?"

"No, that's not it. I just wanted to see how your aura would manifest itself when placed on a subordinate of this caliber."

Fortunately, White Demon knew that Accelerator wouldn't use too much force, otherwise, if his full power were to spread out, the female shop assistant would probably have fainted on the spot.

But none of these are important.

"Since I've taken up so much of your time, let me explain it to you properly."

Looking at the three people in front of him, White Yaksha smiled and pointed to the letter that the three had brought over, which was placed on the table.

"As the letter states, 'Salamandra' is the organizer of the Fire Dragon Birth Festival and is also the faction of the Northern District's hierarchy rulers."

"The purpose of this event is basically to give the new leader of the 'Salamandra' who is taking over the leadership a stage to show himself. Well... that's the point. I also need to make a good appearance this time, because I, as the leader of the Eastern District, have also been invited by them."

It seems that White Yaksha is among those who will be going to the North District to participate in the Fire Dragon Birth Festival.

But why would the East District's class rulers specifically go to the North District's class rulers' side?

"It doesn't matter how you handle that kind of thing."

The details of the Fire Dragon Birth Festival—that was of no significance to Accelerator.

He didn't come here to hear these words.

"What are those rewards you mentioned when you called me here?"

"Humph."

I guess we're getting down to business now.

With a mysterious expression, the White Demon raised her tiny hand.

Wow.

It was a necklace, which appeared directly in her hand.

"This thing should look somewhat familiar to you, right?"

"necklace…?"

Hatsune Miku's words are of little meaning to me.

However, Kakine Teitoku and Accelerator both recognized him.

"That gadget that nouveau riche bastard used?"

Accelerator recalls the thing that Rouss wore around his neck during his previous battle with Perseus.

"Today, I was just going to make some arrangements for the three of them, including that kid named Izayoi. But when I thought about how you were the one who actually defeated the Demon King in the end, I rushed to get this back."

"It doesn't matter who defeats the Demon King, right? At least three people here could take down a guy of that level with their bare hands, wouldn't they?"

"Oh dear... these young people nowadays really underestimate the existence of the calamities known as the Protoss."

White Yaksha shook his head helplessly.
