Chapter 393

The chattering mouth that had been prattling on suddenly clamped shut. Round eyes peeping through blue strands of hair looked at Yuder with a new excitent and anticipation.

"...A proposal for the right to appoint an aide?"

Yuder did not respond verbally, but quietly nodded his head.

Finn still rembered the short conversation he had heard previously at the Western Mage Union base in Great Sarain Forest, along with Hinn and Gakane.

"I rember, of course. But why? Are you planning to give it to already?"

"If I am, would you consider accepting?"

Excitent surged through Finn's parted lips. The boy, whose soft cheeks had turned red like a young animal, seed as if he would nod his head at any mont, but he did not forget his caution, curious as to why such a sudden offer was being made.

"Are you making this offer to alone, or is it also for Hinn and Gakane in Great Sarain Forest?"

"It's a proposal made first to you. Those two are not here."

"Aha. You an you need soone here to aid Yuder."

Finn's eyes narrowed as he quickly grasped the unspoken aning.

Though the Eldore siblings sotis appeared more naive and thoughtless than the youngest mber in the Cavalry, in fact, their ability to read situations and judge matters was more exceptional than many adult mbers. It ant they hadn't lived as naively as they seed.

"But why do you need help to the point of using the appointnt right in advance?"

Yuder lowered his voice after confirming once again that no one was around.

"I'd like you to watch and investigate so people in Tainu on my behalf. Without anyone finding out. ...Can you do it?"

"Of course I can! I'm confident!"

Finn exclaid, thumping his chest.

"But who are these people in Tainu? Soone I've seen before?"

"No."

Yuder looked into Finn's sparkling eyes.

"...They are southern rchants who ca here yesterday under Duke Tain's orders."

Last night, Yuder had seen southern rchants in a tavern and inn connected to a warehouse filled with Duke Tain's secret trade goods. Kishiar had instructed Nathan Zuckerman to watch them, but Yuder felt the need to investigate them separately.

It wasn't because he didn't trust Nathan Zuckerman and the Peletta Knights, but because he sensed an indescribable premonition from the way the southern rchants seed to detect his presence unusually quickly.

'I can't be certain since I didn't exert effort, but... I must consider the possibility that they might be Awakeners.'

The idea of appointing Finn as an aide in advance ca from this reason. What Yuder wanted was a watchful eye to consistently monitor the southern rchants without anyone noticing. Finn was ideally suited for this task.

His unruly, mischievous deanor ant he could move a bit freely among his colleagues without raising suspicions. He knew how to utilize his unassuming appearance and quick judgnt, without exposing himself to danger.

He had planned to use the appointnt right to gather individuals responsible for information gathering within the Cavalry, so advancing the start wouldn't be a poor choice.

"The Commander has already told Zuckerman to watch them, but I think..."

"You an it's necessary for us to investigate on our own, aside from the Peletta Knights?"

Finn imdiately caught on to Yuder's intention and interjected.

"Yes. I'd prefer to do it myself, but I think it's hard for to pay attention to that right now, so I'd like to ask you."

“Hmm… you know what? Yuder is really lucky.”

With eyes narrowed like a pleased cat, Finn suddenly grinned slyly and whispered.

“Actually, this was still a secret, but not long ago, I succeeded in using the teleportation ability by myself, you know? It would be perfect to use for this job, wouldn’t it?”

The Eldore siblings originally possessed the ability to teleport people or objects within a short range when they held hands. Yuder had heard that the ability had been expanding in terms of distance, but he didn't know it had developed to the point where they could use it separately.

Yuder, surprised by the developnt that had not occurred in his previous life, rarely opened his eyes wide, and Finn made a satisfied face at the reaction.

“How did you...”

“Rember when we all gathered to hear advice from Yuder about developing our abilities? Yuder told us that, for us, extending the range of our teleportation ability is important, but we should also train to be able to use it in any situation.”

Of course, he rembered.

It happened just after he had been able to modify the Cavalry training thods. Many Cavalry mbers had co asking for personal advice to further develop their abilities, and Yuder had spent all day answering everyone. Of course, the Eldore siblings were among them.

“To use it in any situation, we first had to consider when we were not together, right? Actually, it hasn't worked so far, but it seems that being forced apart in Tainu helped us succeed.”

Although this was not the aning of being able to use it in any situation, the fact that they had finally succeeded in using their abilities separately was a remarkable achievent.

The result of Kishiar separating the Eldore siblings had blossod this way. Perhaps he already knew sothing about the siblings' new challenge.

“Then what about Hinn?”

“Of course, Hinn succeeded too. She first did it when Gakane was injured and needed quick treatnt, and the road was blocked. Amazing, right?”

That was news to him. The developnt of the other mbers had contributed to Gakane surviving instead of dying, unlike in the previous life.

“So when did you first succeed, Finn?”

“? I, um...”

Finn, who had been answering confidently, for the first ti closed his mouth and playfully scrunched up his nose.

“When I went to help Yuder investigate the prison.”

He managed to leave with a promise for next ti, but Finn was still in a state of residual anger against the Tainu Knights at that ti. It was only natural that he wanted to throw a piece of dog dung, that he happened to find while heading to catch a carriage back to Baron Willhem's mansion, under the knights' feet.

“But that… actually worked, you know.”

Although it was a ridiculous reason, if the Eldore siblings had advanced one step further for the sake of their comrades, it was a good thing. Yuder praised them honestly.

“I see. Congratulations to both of you.”

“Thanks. But we still have a long way to go. We will find a way to develop further together with Hinn!”

Finn said he would act for the mission as soon as he returned to the security managent team and conveyed Kishiar's answer to Ever. Yuder inford him of the location of the inn where the southern rchants were staying and their appearance, emphasizing not to approach them excessively.

“They seed very sensitive to signs. Be careful.”

“Don't worry. If we intend to, no one can suspect us. Ah, of course, it's just for now.”

So ti had passed since Hinn had left, but Finn still often habitually used the word "we" to refer to himself. However, the fact that neither sadness nor regret was reflected in his awkward smile ant that the Cavalry and Kishiar were sufficient to fill each other's voids as siblings.

That fact was sowhat comforting.

"So is it ti to start the historic first mission of the Cavalry's Secret Information Team? I'm totally excited! See you later, Yuder!"

Yuder silently watched Finn Eldore's departing figure before turning away. It was now ti for him to make a brief outing as well.

…

"What's going on? I didn't call for you, why are you here so early?"

"I wanted to have a brief chat with you."

Enon opened the door to his lodgings with a scowl and stared at Yuder's face before snapping at him.

"Hmm. It seems sothing must have made you rather impatient?"

"..."

As usual, Enon had an uncannily sharp sense of intuition, different from Kishiar's. As Yuder said nothing, Enon let out a snort and opened the door a little wider, allowing him to enter.

"Co in for now. I don't have much ti, so speak quickly."

The inside of the lodging looked sowhat different from the last ti he had been there. Suspicious-looking magic tools and piles of paper were scattered everywhere, and pens rolled about in place of forks amid half-eaten food dishes.

Mick and Hellem were seated across from each other, talking over the cage of Pethuat, completely engrossed in conversation and scribbling on paper without noticing their visitor.

"What are you looking at? Ignore them and co up here. You said you ca to talk to ."

Enon's voice raised from the top of the stairs as Yuder observed them. Yuder turned his gaze and followed Enon into a small bedroom. The piles of dried herbs on the table beside the bed gave a true sense of Enon's dwelling place.

"So, what did you want to talk about?"

"I want to know how far the research has progressed. And... what's best for recovery when a mage has overused their power and beco exhausted?"

"...Why are you suddenly asking about that when you're not a mage?"

Enon asked after a mont of silence. Yuder was surprised to see such an agitated expression on a face that usually remained unchanging even when biting into a raw lemon.

"I know people who can use magic even though I'm not a mage."

"What I an is… No, forget it. Don't speak. Don't open your mouth! Enough!"

Enon suddenly yelled in anger, interrupting himself, and sat down a few steps away from Yuder.

"The research is progressing better than I thought. They know a lot of thods I hadn't thought of, so it's been a significant help. I've gained quite a bit of knowledge this ti, especially from the mage nad Hellem."

Even though Enon had lived for a long ti, his knowledge didn't extend to every area. Watching Hellem and Mick researching the monster, he seed to be quite impressed, even softening his previously furrowed expression.

"Anyway, right now, we're extracting the monster's fluid for investigation, and simultaneously feeding it pieces of magic stone to observe the absorption and excretion process. The latter is almost completed."
