“Huh? Doesn't it increase? I often hear that the limit increases if you use it to the limit, or if you do some kind of training.”


 

“Hmm, I've never heard of that.
……”

 

Ataru's knowledge came from games and novels, so Caro, who didn't have a clear idea of what he was talking about, tilted her head with her ears hanging down.

 

“But I don't know much about magic either, so it might be a good idea to ask someone who does.”

 

“I'm not familiar with magic either, so it might be a good idea to ask someone who is…
Well, ……, let's see if we can find someone.
Well, let us go to them.”

 

Caro advised with a smile that maybe she just didn't know.

 

When Ataru nodded, he moved his gaze and saw the adventurers gathering to watch Flaria's interrogation.

 

“Who the hell are you, and why have you done this!”

 

As Ataru and Caro approached the circle, they heard Flaria's voice rough and raspy as she was interrogating him.
Ataru couldn't help but look dubious at the content of the question.

 

“Why are you asking such a basic question?”

 

The fact that she was asking this level of question after some time had passed since Flaria had moved to the man indicated that things were not going well.
He stepped forward, tilting his head to see why the situation was like this, and decided that he should join the conversation.

 

“Let me through, I'm sorry.”

 


When Ataru and Caro made their way through the crowd to where Flaria and the others were, they found the man tied up in ropes and sitting down for questioning.
The man's eyes are shut, and his mouth is tied tightly shut, and you can tell from his demeanor that he has no intention of answering.

 

“This seems to be quite difficult.”

 

“Oh, there you are.
Yes, this man is quite stubborn.
……”

 

Flaria exhaled as if relieved that Ataru had appeared.
It seems that he has decided to keep the honorific to Ataru.

 

“Well, ……, then let's have some people keep an eye on this one and go to the back.
Creating this many golems here probably means that there is a laboratory or a workshop in the back.
Rather, it's strange that I haven't gone to the back yet.

 

Flaria huffed at Ataru's words while looking at the back of the cave after a glance at the man, and immediately began to give instructions for that.
The man, who was under the impression that he would be fine if he kept quiet, opened his eyes and glared at Ataru, the source of the problem.

 

“Hey, don't touch my research without permission!”

 

He said something that could be called an intimidation, but in this situation, it was useless to say anything.

 

“Well ……, but that's for us to decide.
You have no right whatsoever to not answer our questions.”

 

Ataru, without regard to glaring or threatening at all, said to the man once and for all, and walked forward to the depths of the cave.

 

Caro who saw it off seemed to have decided to stand guard at the side of the man who was tied up.

 

“Oh, hey, wait! There are things that are dangerous if you touch them without permission!”

 

The man was shouting as if he was in a hurry to keep him back somehow, but Ataru proceeded without caring as if to say, “So what?” Flaria and a few other A-rank adventurers who have finished their assignments are following them.

 

On the way to the end of the road, there was something that could not be determined whether it was a piece of junk or a part of something else.

 

“This might be just what he was talking about.
……”

 

“Is that dangerous?”

 

Flaria, who had finally caught up with Ataru's muttering, asked back.

 

“Oh, you guys don't touch anything around there, either.
I'll check it out as we go.”

 

(Please read original at https: //sites .

Ataru proceeded cautiously, using the power of his eyes to check for objects with a high magical response.
Flaria and the others who followed him nodded at his words and took a few steps behind him.

 

After a while, we came to a room-like area.

 

“This is his laboratory.
……
There's a lot of stuff in here, so why don't we take some of it home and have it analyzed by some experts?”

 

He used the power of his eyes to look around, but he didn't see anything he shouldn't touch, so Ataru suggested that, but he himself wasn't very interested in the contents.

 

“Yes, it will take some time, but let's gather all the materials here.
Now, Ataru-san, please let me know if you see anything that might be dangerous.”

 

Flaria said and started to gather up the scattered documents and books.
Flaria was also carrying a magic bag, so she filled it with the documents and books she had collected.
The adventurers were helping Flaria and looking at the surroundings with interest.

 

With this at his side, Ataru did as he was instructed, examining everything around him except for the paper.

 

Suddenly, he found a core with a particularly strong magical reaction hidden in it.
It was hidden in a double-bottomed shelf, and its size was particularly large.

 

“This is …….
Hey, what do you think of this?”

 

But Flaria and the other adventurers who had come with her were too busy preparing to take the material back with them to reply.

 

“Oh, well…”

 

As it didn't seem particularly dangerous, Ataru didn't seem to mind that he didn't get a reply and decided to leave it in his bag without saying a word.
He thought it would be safer to take it home with him and give it to the guild master later, so that it would not fall into someone else's hands since it was so powerful.

 

After that, Ataru continued to check the surroundings, but didn't find anything interesting, and by that time, Flaria and the others had finished their work.

 

“Well, we're all done now.
Let's get out of here.”

 

Flaria looked around the room, which was now a little cleaner after the scattered papers were cleared away and called out to everyone.

 

When Ataru and the others returned, the man was still tied up and glaring hatefully in the direction they had come from.
While Caro was paying attention to the man, she was inwardly relieved to see that Ataru was safe and sound when he returned.

 

“Hey, I hope you guys didn't do anything unnecessary!”

 

The man shouted angrily as he leaned forward, but Ataru only shrugged his shoulders and shifted his gaze to Flaria.

 

“You're in no position to say that.
Just by manufacturing such a large number of golems, you are endangering the people who come here.
What's more, setting that giant golem Cyclops on us is a clear act of hostility.”

 

The mountain is not owned by anyone, so there is no punishment for being holed up there.
But even if it was for defensive purposes, it was not acceptable to deploy golems at will.

 

“Mmmm, I thought no one would bother me here.
……
He lied to me, didn't he?”

 

The man groaned in frustration as Flaria gave him a good argument.
And the second half of his mumbling was too small to reach anyone's ears.

 

“Well, let's take him back to the guild and we'll have another look at him.

 

“Come on, get up.”

 

One of the adventurers forcibly made the man stand up and dragged him away.

 

Ataru took another look at his surroundings to make sure he hadn't missed anything.
He nodded towards Flaria to make sure she wasn't hiding anything else, but as he didn't see anything, he was fine.

 

“Okay, everyone, let's return to the guild now! Many of you may be injured or fatigued, so let's head back carefully!'

 

Flaria, who trusted Ataru, nodded back and called out to the adventurers in a loud voice.
Those who were able to reply to her voice did so loudly, while those who were too tired from the battle to reply remained seated but raised their hands in joy.

 

Thus ended the large-scale request to defeat the golems.
