As a small human race with very low ability values, they are often unable to make high achievements in all walks of life.

Learn everything and use everything, this is Laila's mantra.

From the characteristics of monsters, to the learning of human nature, from the production of weapons, to survival skills, including the mastery of teammates' psychology and negotiation skills, and the collection of supplies in dungeons. Putting aside other miscellaneous things, it can be said that she has learned several times more than the average adventurer as she grows up.

Although there were life reasons, it was precisely because of this cruel situation that she understood that their little human race had to make use of everything around them to survive.

It is normal for her to use her brain until her ears bleed. It is better to say that she will die if she doesn't use her brain. After all, she is a small human.

In the end, thanks to this, she gained unimaginable "wisdom".

Although to her they were just trivial things accumulated in life, she felt satisfied that she could use this "wisdom" to help others.

However, the problem that suddenly appeared at the moment was the real culprit that put her into a situation where she was at a loss.

With bombs like this all over the city, Orario, where they were, had become so dangerous without even realizing it.

Different from the past small-scale attacks by the "dark faction", they are unable to conduct large-scale investigations now that anyone around them may be a source of danger.

"Tsk - it's really a tricky thing...what do those damn guys think of human life..."

Cursing secretly the "evil god" for his unscrupulous behavior, Laila dismantled the bomb on the table with an angry expression.

Hearing the angry scolding, Gojono Kaguya, who was sitting on the couch, was staring at the smooth stone slab on the ground without saying a word.

Logically speaking, she should say something, but now she couldn't say anything.

As the deputy leader of the "Asteria Familia", she usually plays the calmest staff position among the Familia, and she is also considered to be a relatively experienced person in fighting against people.

At least in terms of experience, she was born in the "Gojo" family from the Far East and experienced countless repression and killings in the first half of her life. From a life experience perspective, her fate was much crueler than that of her companions.

Far to the east, there is a central government called the "Court". From a realistic point of view, it should be regarded as a small country-like clan born around the island. There is a composite sect composed of a main god named Amaterasu and many subsidiary gods.

And her family "Gojo" is also one of the nine major families there.

When it comes to governing, each family has a clear division of labor, and their "Five Articles" are responsible for the duty called "fire extinguishing."

To put it simply, "fire extinguishing" means quickly eradicating all smoke generated by friction that is harmful to stability, both inside and outside the "imperial court". In order to maintain the stability and order of the country.

In other words, they "Gojo" are the guardians of "justice" who travel throughout the Far East.

Of course, that's to put it mildly, but to put it darkly, the job they are responsible for is nothing more than the position of "Anbu".

Assassination, tampering, erasure, and using all means to maintain the stability of the country is their "Five Articles" job.

Against such an environmental background, it can be said that she, who was far away in the East, experienced many things that ordinary people could hardly imagine.

"The few must be sacrificed for the sake of the greater good." This was the value she had been cultivated as a killer in that country for a long time, and she had believed in it.

From the moment he was born, endless killings in his destiny were waiting for him secretly, and he was judged for his fate.

However, after experiencing some setbacks and the country's political struggle, she became disgusted with the so-called "justice" in the words of officials, and finally came to the center of the world, the "Maze City Orario", and joined the family of the Goddess of Justice.

She vaguely remembers that she was depraved and cruel during the period before she transferred to another clan. She was disappointed with "justice" and wanted to die. She also completely abandoned the so-called Yamato Nadeshiko in the far east with every word and deed.

But it was precisely because of this that when she came to Orario, she had a quarrel with Alishe who she met on the way, and met the current main god.

In the end, she was harmed by "Justice" and was saved by the "Justice" of the goddess Astraea.

But now. "The few must be sacrificed for the sake of the greater good." This sentence that accompanied her for the first half of her life and could be called "justice" was something she could not say out loud no matter what.

At this moment, she was overwhelmed by the cruel reality. The huge casualties that could be caused could not be turned into a series of cold numbers in her mouth.

If she could get peace, she might be able to suppress the discomfort in her heart and force herself to speak out. However, the current situation is that these suicide bombers are just the foreplay of a huge drama arranged by the "dark faction" who are hostile to them.

But they are just beautiful words.

Currently, they don't know anything about the strength of the enemy, the composition of high-level combat forces, or the specific plans and arrangements. Just because of the bomb incident, they are already too busy to worry about anything else. In the final analysis, they are not strong enough and cannot save everyone.

"Maybe it's time to make a choice..."

With a low murmur in his mouth, Kaguya squinted her eyes and raised her head to look at the crowd.

"Do you have any ideas? Kaguya..."

Hearing that the deputy captain had something to say, Alishe looked at him with her bright eyes.

At the same time, with everyone watching, Kaguya continued to speak.

"This is a 'choice' for us..."

"Let me say something here first... Since I joined Lady Astraea's family, I am very happy to be able to exercise the right of justice in this city with everyone..."

Facing everyone's gaze, she had a smile on her face, but her eyes were very dull.

"Obviously there are only two ways we can respond to this situation..."

"One result is to abandon those crazy people who turned into fanatic believers, selectively ignore their deaths and injuries, and then ensure the greatest possible strength to face the possible "dark faction" that will happen next. ’’s attack, and closing the mess..."

"Focus on those who want to survive. This is my advice..."

Hearing Kaguya say this, everyone present showed a depressed expression.

"Right now, it's impossible for us to effectively investigate every place in Orario. It's extremely difficult to even investigate the base of the 'Dark Faction'. We simply can't find out the dangerous bombs hidden in the hands of the people..."
