Chapter 032
"Hey, what are you making such a fuss about?"
I was ignoring the two, thinking about how to deal with the yelling idiot, when a guild guard came running, as if someone had called him beforehand. The man took this opportunity to ramble on, and gave a passionate speech to try to get the guild guard on his side.
"This guy stole the gold bug I finally found. I was being nice and offered to settle things peacefully with compensation equal to the value of the gold drops, but he just ignored me. I want you to punish him for stealing!"
"What he's saying is true?"
"I was passing by on my way to the lower floor, and a gold bug flew by, so I just swatted it. I didn't intend to kill it, so I ignored it and tried to walk away when he started a fight with me."
As the guild members were there to deal with these kinds of troubles, so he listened to what I had to say.
"There's no need to listen to that kid's nonsense. We can't finish filming until I find another golden bug and get the gold. I want him to pay the compensation quickly and go back!"
"Hmm, so you were filming? If so, the whole story is on that camera, right? Let's have both of you tell your story at the guild. Oh, I'll keep the camera. To make sure the data isn't deleted."
When the guild member took the camera from the other man, both of their faces twitched. They must have forgotten about it even though they were filming.
If they check the contents of the camera, there should be a record of me trying to leave without killing the golden bug I swatted. If that is confirmed, it will prove that they're making up a false accusation.
"No, that's a problem, I want to continue filming quickly. Hey, I'll let you off the hook this time for the guild members' sake!"
"No, that's not OK. Prey stealing is clearly prohibited. It's the guild's job to crack down on those who do it. Now that I know, I can't let it slide."
In this country, it's the Japanese Army that is in charge of dungeon exploration, and the guild that manages the dungeon is its subordinate organization. The supervisor, who is a guild employee, is a fine army officer, and since Japan in this world is not a democracy, he has power that is incomparable to my previous life.
If ordered to accompany such a person, no one can say no. Naturally, I followed the supervisor and left the dungeon.
"Well, this time we have irrefutable evidence, so it looks easy. Let's see which side is right."
We were led into a room that seemed to be a guild's conference room and sat facing each other. The supervisor checked the content that was being filmed on the monitor attached to the camera.
The men were drenched in cold sweat and looked restless, but I just watched them calmly.
