When we arrived at the frontier count's mansion, we were ushered into the parlor where Lloyd and his friends were waiting for us by the maids who were waiting at the door.

　When I followed the maids into the parlor, I saw Mais, the knight commander, Arnold, the guildmaster, Rebecca, the receptionist, and Roland, the barber, were there, and for some reason they were discussing something with Lloyd.


'Oh, you're finally here. I've been waiting for you, come and sit down there. I'm sure it's a long story.


　Lloyd noticed us and asked us to take a seat in the chair in the parlor, so we sat down in the chair that was available.


So, what is the reward from the Count of the Frontier?　I'm told that's serious, too.

It's a story about how we may have gotten some information about who you're looking for at .......


　Information on Fynn!

　I knew he was in this yugha-nots!


　I was leaning forward in a panic at the words that Lloyd the frontier count brought to me.


'You have information about the seeker!

Yeah, you're looking for a dark-haired swordsman named Fynn, right?

'Oh, yes. Yes!


　Lloyd looked at me with a satisfied look on his face.


I see, then it seems that the information you have obtained is correct. "Sword Saint Alfine, sir.


　The words that Lloyd said made me stiffen up.


　My identity has been exposed .......

　How can you ...... change your name, gender and appearance?


'What are you talking about?　This is my brother Al. I have nothing to do with you, Sword Saint Alfine.


　Meira pulled on my clothes and forced me to sit down in a chair.

　I was too rigid to reply, but she answered Lloyd the frontier count's question for me.


I have nothing to worry about," he said. I have a common enemy in common with Lord Alfina. I'm sure I know why you're hiding, too. Mice, I want you to tell Al and the others what happened.


　Lloyd sat down to admonish Meira for trying to cover for me and called out for Mais, who was standing beside me.

　When Myth was called, Myth stood up from his chair and began to read the stack of papers in his hand.


I was ordered by Master Lloyd to search for Lord Fihn and to find out the identity of Al-dono. It turns out that the swordsman Mister Fihn you are looking for is a platinum-ranked adventurer who was a companion of the Swordsman Alfine when he was an adventurer. Is there any mistake in this?


　I received a confirming look from Mice.


''Ha, yes. There is no doubt that Feen-dono was partnered with Alfine-dono as an adventurer. But I'm not the Sword Saint Alfine-sama.

Hey, hey, hey, Al!


　When I answered Myth's question, Meira tried to stop me.


　If I don't tell anyone, I may not be able to get any information about Fynn, and if I don't admit that I'm Alfine, then there will be no problem.

　It's the chance to get the information you're looking for.


　I look at her and apologize to her.


I'll report on Al-dono's background later, so for now I'll report on Fiend-dono. The Fiend-dono you are looking for was last asked to be an adventurer in the royal capital a few months ago. At that time, the adventurer you teamed up with was not Lord Alfine, but another adventurer of the platinum grade, and that request was accomplished. As an adventurer, he was one of the most talented adventurers in the guild in King's Landing, but it has been reported that he was underestimated because he was overshadowed by Lord Alfine's success. And we have also collected rumors that this Lord Fynn has disappeared from the capital and is missing.


　It's true that as Myth reported, Fynn was one of the best adventurers in King's Landing.

　However, it's also the case that I didn't do him justice, and many people downplayed him as an appendage to me.


''After being consulted by Lord Mais, I referred information about the platinum-grade Lord Fynn to the masters of the adventurer's guilds in the various cities, but I couldn't find any footprints of the request in that name at all.


　Guildmaster Arnold was urged by Mais to report to us the information he had found out.


In other words, based on Arnold-dono's report, I've deduced that Fynn-dono has abandoned his status as a platinum-grade adventurer and is in hiding. Or he may have registered as an adventurer under an alias and is living as a different person.


　The possibilities presented by Mais were ones that Fynn, who had been living as an adventurer all his life, was likely to choose.


　As a different person .......

　Well ...... like me, you'd have to give up your status, position, name, and even appearance .......

　That might be a possibility.

　I'm not sure if we've crossed paths on this yuguehanotes.


　At that time, the face of a young adventurer with bright red hair and eyes that I passed at the entrance of the adventurer's guild in Yuguhanotes appeared in my mind.


　Why does the face of that adventurer, Flick, come to mind?

　Even though he doesn't look like Fynn at all .......


　I'm not going to be the only one who has been in a position to do this.


I've been collecting information on the young swordsman adventurer with dark eyes and black hair in the YughaNotes, which led me to some interesting information. Lord Roland, please report back to me.


　Roland, the barber who had been called to this spot, had sent me a look of apology when he came in front of me.


　Perhaps the story that I'm the Swordsman Alfine was leaked by that man.

　You can't just keep your mouth shut when you're the lord of the land: ......

　It's a good idea to be able to have a good idea of who you are and what you're made of.


"I'm sorry, Al. I'm sorry, Mister Al, but I'm actually a spy for the Countess of the Frontier. I've been working as a barber and gathering information on all the strange people who are infiltrating the Yggernotes. I didn't think that Al-dono in particular would do any harm to the Countess of the Frontier, so I left him alone. If you can, you might as well keep it to yourself. In exchange for giving you the best possible information that Al-dono needs.


　After saying this, he held out two portraits of himself to me, after telling me that he was a secret agent of the Countess of the Frontier.

　The first portrait was of a young adventurer named Flick, the crimson mage I had in mind earlier.


''What's this?''

"A young, dark-haired swordsman adventurer who used our shop here in the Yggernotes two weeks after Lord Fynn disappeared from King's Landing, in the likeness of a disfigured young swordsman.

"Two weeks after Lord Fynn's disappearance?" ......

"This YughaNotes from the royal capital is about two weeks by carriage. Besides, dark eyes and black hair are rare. You're close to Lord Fynn's age. Check out the other sketch.


　At Roland's urging, I flipped through Flick's sketch, and the moment I saw the other sketch hidden underneath, I lost my voice - I couldn't speak.

　The sketch is very similar to my own Fynn, who wore his bangs long and covered his eyes, hiding his confidence in his face as if he didn't want to be popular with other women.


　This is Fynn!　It's Finn, isn't it?


'That's the face of the man before he became a crimson mage flick. Is that the person you're looking for, Al-dono?


　I couldn't speak, and I could only nod my head.


"Okay, just to reiterate, the person you're looking for, Fihn, do you have a small wheat ears tattooed on the base of his neck?


　A child from the orphanage was even tattooed by the director and his wife as a plague warder!

　It must be Fynn.

　There's no doubt about it, the crimson mage Flick could be Fynn.


　I nodded in agreement with Roland's confirmation.

　I was listening quietly when Rebecca suddenly stood up and held out a piece of paper with an address on it.


"Al-san, do you happen to recognize the address of this village and the name of the orphanage by any chance?


　The address on the piece of paper Rebecca held out to me was the name of the orphanage where I and Fynn had grown up, and the name of the village.


'Yes, but what's this?'

'This is the address where Mr. Fricke sent the money anonymously. It's an orphanage, apparently, but you said you didn't want to give your name, so I was stuck on it.


　Rebecca had also presented new information about Flick and Fynn overlapping.

　In my mind, Fynn and Flick's figures are overlapping.


　But Fynn's magical talent is .......

　No, I didn't let him find out.

　If, unlike me, Fynn has a tremendous amount of magical talent, it's .......


　I came up with the idea, and it's a perfect match between Fynn and Flick in my mind.


　I was passing Fynn at the time .......

　Why couldn't I notice .......

　We were childhood friends who had lived together all our lives.


　It's not just a matter of time before you get to the point where you're going to be able to get the most out of it.
