Fragment
Auto-translated
Carneol's first task... Find some cultist who killed a merchant.
"Apostle of Wrath, huh? What a pompous nickname. It would suit a burly bodyguard, I should remember that."
The others had already scattered to question the shopkeepers, but Garret wasn't in a hurry. He was specifically assigned to "patrol the area," which sounded more like "go for a walk, do whatever you want, just don't get in the way." Not bad. He didn't see much point in just wandering around Emerald Alley; others were already doing that during breaks between interrogating merchants. Visiting a couple of establishments and listening to what people were talking about over a cup of tea? Sure, but he didn't have the money for that. But wandering around where, at first glance, there seemed to be nothing to do could theoretically be useful. Or not, but he didn't have any other ideas.
Garret sets off to wander through the residential areas in search of something interesting, listening as much as possible to what people are gossiping about in the streets.
