“Hey, crown prince! Why’d you stop smiling? Raon Miru the great and mighty will learn that smile as well! Then I will show it to the White Star!”

Raon twitched the corners of his lips while trying to mimic Cale and crown prince Alberu’s smiles. However, neither wickedness nor a majestic aura came from his twitching his lips underneath those chubby cheeks of his.

He just looked cute. Ahem.

The corners of the crown prince’s lips went completely down.

It was because he saw the ancient Dragon looking at him with an odd expression from behind Raon.

There was a voice that broke the odd silence at that moment.

“By the way…”

It was Bud Illis.

He had taken out and chugged another bottle before starting to smile.

“We used magic.”

Bud pointed toward the video communication device.

“I'm pretty sure the Mercenaries Guild’s central headquarters is a chaotic mess right now.”

He seemed to be leisurely talking about it as if it was someone else’s business.

“The Mercenary King isn’t there! The highest-grade mage isn't there either! They also know that Arm’s members are currently hiding and watching the central headquarters! In the middle of all that…!”

Gulp.

A gulp of alcohol disappeared into Bud’s body.

“In the middle of all that! They get informed that magic was detected in here! And it’s not even in the middle of the tunnel headed toward this location! No! Instead!”

He pointed both arms to point to the library.

“Magic was detected right at the center of the library! An infiltration like this has never happened in the history of the Mercenaries Guild! It is a very urgent situation!”

Clack.

The bottle was placed on the ground.

Bud turned his gaze toward Cale.

“Friend, what would you do if you were the Mercenaries Guild members?”

Cale calmly responded back.

“They would go crazy and charge in here. They’ll bring everyone they can. They will grab any and every weapon they could find.”

Alberu chimed in at that moment. …Was that somewhere you couldn’t use magic?

Alberu could see the drunk looking Bud smiling and nodding his head.

“Yes! Your highness! That is the case! They will all soon charge in here soon! Kahahahahah!” Y, y, you c-

‘You crazy bastard!’

Alberu could not say that out loud as he had to maintain his demeanor as a crown prince and just thought that in his mind.

If it was the full force from the Mercenaries Guild's central headquarters, you could consider them to be the best of what the Mercenaries Guild had to offer.

And all of them were going to be shocked and come here?

The smile slowly disappeared from the nervous Alberu’s face. But he casually commented about the situation. Then I guess it can start now.

His gaze headed toward one side.

The three-way battle you mentioned.

Ron smiled and made eye contact with the crown prince.

“You are right, your highness. It is a great moment to announce the return of the Molan household. I'm certain Arm’s members would notice the Mercenaries Guild's central forces moving and follow behind them.”

Bud looked toward Ron and started to laugh even louder.

“Kehehehe! Everybody is so calm even after I said that they will charge in after fifteen minutes! I can’t tell whether I'm the only normal one or if all of you are abnormal!”

Although both of those options meant that everyone other than him was abnormal, nobody was paying attention to what Bud was saying.

Everybody was being too calm. Cale was the one who was the calmest.

He had confirmed that his body was cooling down and was rebuttoning his shirt. Beacrox let go of Cale and started to speak.

“But didn’t you say that only the Mercenary King knows how to get here?”

“Hehehe.”

Beacrox could see the Mercenary King looking at him and laughing.

‘…Did he go crazy?’

That was what he was thinking while looking at the laughing Bud. The Mercenary King didn’t care and said what he needed to say.

“Don't you know where we crawled under?”

“Ah.”

Beacrox realized that there was no need to ask anymore.

The first Mercenaries Guild branch, the three-storied wooden building, was above this large library.

Bud had also said something else while introducing this place.

‘And that area will explode if someone tries to infiltrate it using any type of power.’

Beacrox’s gaze headed toward his father Ron and Cale. Cale stood up and started to speak.

“Then will they come in about ten, no, five minutes now?”

“Hehe, to be specific, they won't be able to charge into this area. They will be guarding the shack with the tunnel entrance or be stationed above this location. That is what I told the chiefs to do in the past.”

To be more specific, most of the Mercenaries Guild members will be heading toward the first guild branch building.

They would purposely lead the Arm members there.

As for the remaining members… The strongest individuals at the central headquarters other than the Mercenary King and the highest-grade mage will avoid the Arm members and stealthily head to the shack with the tunnel entrance.
