100 – 100. Infiltrating the Octagon (2)
As if advertising to the common people not to enter, most of the buildings are different in size.
As it is an administrative district where a large number of rich people live, it is not so high and big that it even has fancy decorations.
Since the buildings built one after another are high-tech industries, the few commoners in Mir Park will not even think of setting foot here.
Late evening.
The light is slowly going out in a building located on the outskirts. Closed for work and reopening tomorrow.
But people come and go there.
“Oh, lord. It’s been a while since you’ve been visiting.”
“Hmmm. That’s it… I heard something from the principality this time.”
“Keuuu. It looks like the principality is really going to go. Come in quickly and solve it coolly.”
A man who seemed to be the lord of a certain territory complained so much, then entered the entrance with the comfort of her guard.
It’s a closed building, so what’s the point of people coming in and out? They usually come around the time they reopen.
Of course, it was strange to set foot inside a building where the lights would soon go out and darkness would lead to silence.
And so were the two men who spoke with them.
Aren’t the two men standing in front of the building where their duties are closed as if they were watching security?
“Has the lord gone in?”
“Uhh. I comforted you well. The first time I did this, it was like sh*t, but every time I do it, it’s like you said.”
“By the way, how long are we going to work today?”
“It’s 3:00 in the morning. With the tournament system going on, it seems like I have to leave work a little later.”
“Ehh. Are you late again?”
As the two guards complain at the entrance, other soldiers coming out of the building tackle them.

“Are you still complaining? No matter how much time passes, you guys don’t change. Tsk tsk.”
“Even if I tell you not to be annoyed or annoyed, it’s okay. If you look at this, it’s honey.”
“Put everything else aside and think you’re just like the guys down there. Much better.”
“Yes. We have a family or a status. If we didn’t have such a back-up, we wouldn’t be like the guys in there.”
“Well, that’s right.”
At first glance, it is not just one or two numbers.
They walked out of the building as a group and were all soldiers guarding this place.
After a few conversations, it was all about patrolling like the people at the entrance, welcoming the nobles as before, and inviting them inside the building with flattery.
However, that alone is enough to dispel the darkness of this place, so this situation is not very convenient.
‘…It’s pretty tight.’
I didn’t think it would be easy to infiltrate from the beginning, but the security is tighter than expected.
I went to the casino where the Octagon is located with ambitious goals, but it was difficult to enter.
Breaking in after facing the guards head-on? Can you say
Basically, it is not possible for me alone to subdue three or four of them patrolling in an instant.
And even if you subdue them, the next patrol will come soon, and eventually you have to deal with the soldiers guarding the entrance.
But I’ve been learning mainly martial arts, and they’re so bored that they yawn.
Forcibly entering was a rough idea.
‘The number of people patrolling is usually two to three. To estimate the patrol interval, it was about 3 minutes. The spare time is 3 minutes, but it is about 2 minutes and 20 seconds, considering the time to be in the eyes of other patrols. There are three places that can be called blind spots.’
The calculation is over. Now is the time to practice with your body.

“So that’s it. Huh? I’ll kill that bastard…”
“Yes, yes. Another strange dreamer.”
“Is it real? Huh? Do you want to check it yourself tomorrow?”
“Keep patrolling, man. More guests might come.”
It’s like this every time.
It’s like going on patrol and saying nonsensical things out of your mouth.
Still, it’s okay to just pass it through one ear while shuffling. With that thought in mind, the man scratched his ears.
‘But if this is the case, you’ll usually refute it by saying you should listen straight to it?’
Something quiet today, I wonder if my partner has finally grown up.
But when the man turned her head away.
“What…! What happened to you?”
It was after I realized that the reason for my silence was completely different.
I shake my head to try to come to my senses, but I don’t budge.
“You bastard… You’re completely stunned…! What the hell…”
Since there was someone nearby, and he and the person patrolling were made into this look, the action to take was simple.
Calling people in right away.
If you blow the whistle you received for an emergency call, all the soldiers patrolling the area will gather here.
However, the moment he tries to blow the whistle, the man experiences the same experience as his collapsing friend.
– Plopped.
“Whoa.”
After picking up the whistle, Junon breathed a sigh of relief. The best advantage of Anti-Cast was that there was no noise.
“As expected. There’s always something worth holding for a call.”
The other man’s inside pocket was also turned inside out and he threw the whistle into the grass where he could see it. It should be taken care of in advance, so even if these guys reveal that someone has invaded, it will be bullsh*t.
Because if they find out that they lost their whistle, they’ll be all over the place for a goof or a smoke. Even if you get caught, it will buy you some time.
In order to enter the other side, one person’s impression was secured.
As for the rest… I think I’ll just have to create a rough situation with these guys.
“…”
It’s the second time I’ve lifted someone to move it, but I don’t have a good memory.
Perhaps it was because I didn’t know that I would be moving people like this in this life as well, rather than being difficult, bad memories came to my mind first.
But what should I do? If I don’t, this will all go to waste.
Whimpering, moving people and ending up with disguises.
Now all that’s left is to pass through the main gate with your skin covered…
‘There’s no way they’ll let me in when I’m patrolling.’
Then I’ll have to use another method.
“Huh? Why are you coming here without patrolling? What’s wrong?”
“That’s… My stomach hurts so much.”
He hugged his stomach and even showed a bitter face as if he was in a hurry. There is no better excuse than having to suddenly come to work.
“Have you got a stomachache while patrolling? You just ate like a hungry pig.”
“Tsk tsk. Quickly solve it. What kind of trouble is that guy with me?”
“Ugh… Thank you.”
The strict security passed. Passing through the main gate, which was a problem, was also over.
The structure of the building was a place I had been to before, so there was no big problem in arriving at the entrance of the casino.
As I casually found the entrance in the basement and entered the gambling hall, I began to hear disgusting cheers in my ears.
─Wow!!!
On the outside, money, the price of entertainment paid for the results inside the bars.
Inside, each weapon has its own reasons.
An octagonal place blocked by iron bars. In the two spaces divided by the iron bars, they were holding completely different things.
But now is not the time to gush out disgust at that.
Anyway, this method of infiltrating today can only be used once. No matter how much you cheat, you might notice that something is off. We must find a way to infiltrate this place again.
‘There was nothing to see this way either.’
I searched every nook and cranny to avoid the eyes of the nobles, but I couldn’t find another entrance.
While looking here and there to see if there is anything else, he bumps into someone.
“Ouch… Ugh…”
If we were to bump into each other here, we would all be aristocrats, but this was really bad luck.
But there is something strange about the reaction. Usually, nobles tend to roll their eyes at such a trivial bump and curse at themselves for watching patrols…
Why doesn’t this girl say anything?
“Look straight ahead next time. Do you understand?”
“Uh… Ok. Sorry…”
If you look at the way he speaks, he is a noble. But for a noble, something is kind.
Apart from that… I think the height difference is too big. This is almost at the level of a child. The voice is that of a young girl.
‘Isn’t the kids coming here anyway?’
As a result of wandering around the Octagon little by little and observing it, most of the people in their 30s and older visit this place.
Everyone in this gambling house looks to be in their late twenties at the very least. So the kids haven’t seen it.
That’s also true, if a kid who wasn’t even an adult realized the true taste of gambling and visited this place, wouldn’t it be obvious that the guys at the academy would come too?
Even for nobles, children are children. Occasionally, alcohol or cigarettes can be regarded as a category of deviation, but do you enjoy watching arenas and gambling?
Even if that were true, it would be strange. It was a contradiction in itself that people who had learned only ineffective elemental magic from behind because they were afraid of seeing blood would come to watch a bloody fight.
… Then what is this girl in front of her?
“Wait a minute.”
“…What is it? Touching a customer rudely.”
When I think about it, the weight I felt when I bumped into it wasn’t that light, and when I hit my butt, it didn’t make a very loud sound.
Above all, he wears a mask like other nobles and covers his face with a fan, but he is not very tall.
Besides, this tone. I think I’ve heard of it somewhere…
-‘It was really hard to act, but I had no choice but to go in and dig up information about the Octagon myself.’
“…!”
This guy… No way.
If I’m not mistaken, a person with this petite frame…
“Hey! You said you went to the bathroom, so what if you go into the Octagon!”
…Damn it. Is it this time? I can’t help it because time has passed.
“See that drunk man over there? I couldn’t help it because I had to drive you all the way here and deal with you.”
“Huh? Ah, that guy…”
What caught the entrance guard’s eye was a middle-aged woman with a hangover, almost lying on the couch.
That she was late because she was caught and swayed here and there by a drunkard. It was a pretty good excuse, albeit improvised.
“Academy, that ungrateful bastard Mary. Huh?
“…”
“The people in the coalition are straight-forward too. All of them use people as tools. Hiccup!”
That middle-aged woman, Professor Kyoff, who has collapsed. She had prepared it in advance to use as an excuse in case of emergency.
The fact that there is a face that at least one person knows is because you can make up the words that were there.
Now, if you add a few words of MSG, there will be no doubt.
“Professor Kyoff, he told me that he had been expelled from the academy earlier, that the association had abandoned him, and that he had told me all his complaints, so there was no time to escape. I was just about to get out of it after I collapsed while drinking.”
The guard shook her head with a tired face. Okay, looks like this went well.
“sh*t… I ran into him after going to the bathroom…”
“So, from next time on, just eat, you bastard. Eating like that will give you a stomach ache. Don’t let me go into that building next time, dude!”
“hahahaha… Yes…”
“Anyway, I had a hard time dealing with drunk customers, and it’s over soon, so I’m patrolling outside to make sure the same thing doesn’t happen.”
After following the guard, I remembered for a moment, and when I looked behind her for a moment, she was already gone.
She didn’t expect to encounter her again like this… But she’s been investigating it thoroughly ever since.
