— Regarding the budget, tomorrow, inform Aria how much gold you believe is necessary to replenish it; she will allocate the required amount to you. As for Gloria, we will handle it this way... Let this be Carneol's first assignment. Find the murderer and bring him to me – alive or dead. I forbid you from cooperating with the Guard on this matter. Now, what else was there?... Ah, you mentioned Evgeny Kripov? I personally am not acquainted with him, but I have heard a few things. I know that he is an excommunicated heresiarch from the Church of Arselia, so if your relationship with the Church is important to you, you should avoid getting close to him.
— I understand you... Thank you for the valuable advice and for allowing us to proceed with the task; your trust is extremely flattering to us, — Ayko was genuinely pleased that they might be able to demonstrate their squad's capabilities so soon. — If you permit, may I inquire about the reasons why we are not allowed to cooperate with the Guard? Are they directly related to the tragedy that occurred, or are they dictated solely by more general considerations?
For now, Ayko has resolved the last question for herself as follows:
- The Guard may be incompetent or covering up for the perpetrator (however, the very fact of such activity automatically makes them unworthy of trust in anything)
- Her Highness wants to create a completely competitive structure to the Guard in order to increase overall efficiency through competition
- Her Highness simply wants to test them in a maximally isolated environment and, at the same time, instill independence
- Not to mention the fact that Her Highness sponsors not the Guard, but specifically their squad
Nevertheless, if Princess Naria had other considerations in addition to the last two reasons, the gnome would like to know about them for the future in order to avoid making a mistake.
Mentally thanking all those brave souls who gave their lives in the quest for harp meat for this dish, and verbally thanking the waitress, Mika returns home, stopping by the "Rabbit" along the way.
They were now only in their underwear and were shouting at their tormentors at the top of their lungs, but to no avail. Eventually, the two ladies rushed off somewhere in the direction of the city, and the bodyguards disappeared behind the doors.
Just call.
—Septet, please answer the call of Her Highness's loyal servants and share your knowledge of our vast empire. Tell me everything you know about the "Aconian apostles," primarily about Ensnarement, Highborn, and Abomination. Whether it's reliable information or just a simple village rumor. Whether it's their appearance, habits, and character, or their abilities and skills. Everything that can help us find them and defeat them in battle.
Don't worry, Creep can't stand me, so the Church won't have any objections.

— I see... Okay, here's a question. Suppose a locomotive is moving along tracks to which a very attractive woman is tied. You have the opportunity to switch the tracks so that the locomotive goes along other tracks to which some man is tied. How would you act in such a situation?
Drakon Melis's decision.

- I won't do anything. If it turns out that she is destined to die, then what can I do? It is not within my power to take the life of a random person in order to save the life of another random person.

As before, Ayaano finds her white-haired acquaintance at the entrance of "The Playful Rabbit." This time, however, she is not alone. Guards dressed in business suits threw two women out onto the street:
Now they were only in their underwear and were screaming at their offenders, but to no avail. In the end, the two ladies rushed off somewhere in the direction of the city, and the guards disappeared behind the doors.
Lol, did they become gamers because of Raphael?
— Based on the specifics of the murder, I have reason to believe that the perpetrator is one of Akonia's apostles, specifically, one driven by wrath. I do not wish for him to fall into the hands of the Guard or the Church.
-- A very compelling reason, Your Highness. I will not disturb you further; you have already helped us immensely. The answers to the rest, I believe, can be found in our wise Imperial Archive. Our task is to get ahead of the Guard, and so we shall proceed, -- a bow.
— Hahaha, alright, here, take 20 more than usual, — Kasu takes the stones and gives Beate 70 rem, — if you ever have any difficulties in life, you can come to me, I will definitely help you.

Or when was Mент planning to give it to us?
Pam-param lunches are on the table at headquarters, why are you going somewhere else...?
I'll gather everyone on Tuesday, we'll discuss it, and then we'll start digging.
One day during their upcoming journey, Klin secluded himself in his cabin and summoned the raven-encyclopedia:
—Septet, I implore you, heed the call of Her Highness's loyal servants and assist us with your knowledge of our vast empire. Tell us everything you know about the "Aconian Apostles," primarily about Ensnarement, Arrogance, and Abomination. Whether it's reliable information or mere village gossip. Whether it's their appearance, habits, and character, or their abilities and skills. Everything that can help us find them and defeat them in battle.
