Chapter 394.2: Chocolate Bar
“――That’s whyyy, Honmono-san said it’s not time to act yeeet.” (Rusha)
“It seems like he’s really an elusive person, Kool. I suppose making people let their guard down is part of his ability, but if I hadn’t heard about his achievements and reputation, I would have mistaken him for being incompetent, man.” (Kutry)
Upon hearing Rusha’s report and what Kutry said, I, Kool, push up my glasses and frantically turn the gear in my head.
Several days after being rescued, 《Strange Freak (Nageki no Akuryo)》 still has no prospect of rescuing Kryhi, but we are steadily gathering information about Code.
We are Class 1, the minimum to be recognized as citizens. Our access to the city system is limited, but there are still things we can look into.
There are people in this city. There are citizens who have been granted Class 1 or higher, and those below that are the lower class people. Kryhi is strong and smart, but he is still only one person, so even within 《Strange Freak (Nageki no Akuryo)》, it is mainly us who are in charge of gathering information. Finding information on foot is something we are quite good at. Near this building――The area under Alisha-ojou’s jurisdiction is full of lower-class people, with almost no citizens living there, while the areas ruled by the other royal families are teeming with people.
Alongside the residents who have lived in this city for a long time, there are the newcomers Red Hunters who have recently flowed in from the outside.
In this city, the system manages all aspects of life, including food, clothing, and shelter. The city system also builds buildings and provides food. Labor is basically not needed at all. Maybe because of this, most of the citizens have a lot of free time on their hands, so it is fairly easy to listen to what they have to say.
This Code is divided into seven areas, each of which is managed by a faction leaded by the King of Code and his descendants, the Royal Family――The Class 8. Recently, each faction has been actively scouting for new fighters. The sudden influx of people from the outside is also part of this. Most of the citizens are aware of Alisha-ojou’s imprisonment, which means that very few citizens live in the very small area given to Alisha-ojou, instead she has many lower-class citizens. This mean that an unmanaged area is perfect for the lower-class people.
