Book 5: Chapter 7
** Lev Magic Empire Tent Street **
The only person who knew El – and only through her mother’s exchange of letters – was Lulusha. However, even Lulusha has never met El, and she certainly did not imagine him to be a giant rabbit.
The Levs, who usually turn away sudden visitors, were looking in awe. Taking advantage of that silence, El continued his explanation.
The information about the origins of the two worlds and the red crack in the sky was outlandish, but it was treated as confidential information in the Kruvan Holy Kingdom. Furthermore, the Emperor, whom they deeply respect, accepted it as the truth, so the Levs had no choice but to listen silently.
** However, the information about the Red Gate and the handling of Heroic Gears are two different matters. There were many Levs who understood that lending a Heroic Gear would be payment for El’s information, but even so, they couldn’t accept giving away their country’s technology to a foreign country.
「I was undecided because of that rabbit, but the Heroic Gears must not be lent out to a foreign country.」
The chief of Labyrinth Capture Division 1 and the head clerk of “Rororo Company”, one of the largest trading companies dealing with magic tools, had a secret meeting after the conference.
「That’s right. In the first place, we have yet to even confirm if the Magi Gear discovered by Division 4 are worthy of being called Heroic Gears. Most of the time, somebody finds a good-looking Magic Gear and brags that it is a Heroic Gear. After all, the company backing them is the “Shabby Company”.」
The head clerk referred to “Muge Company” as “Shabby Company” with hostility.
