Even though I didn't see it before, I already know that the target that the place is targeting is us.

Because I caught sight of the person's name in the corner of my eye, and it was yellow.

Be vigilant.

Interesting, it seems that the person is not someone who can control the wolf pack to attack the village.

Baldwin

65 years old, male

Blacksmith LV13

Neutral, pitiful blacksmith

Hey hey hey, although I don't know the reason behind these titles, but this...is too simplistic, dear World, you're too lazy, how can you not do your job properly?

...

Well, it seems that this person is not an important character after all. Well, this can also be considered as a hint.

"We can actually catch the other person, but in case there are others hiding nearby, let Oyado keep an eye on him."

"Sounds more interesting than I imagined, okay."

After speaking, Aliyah said loudly,

"I'm going over there!"

Then she turned and ran in the opposite direction.

However, after she turned into an alley, she suddenly jumped onto the roof of a taller building next to it and circled back.

But at that moment, I suddenly saw another person turn around from the nearby shop and follow Aliyah.

His name also instantly turned yellow!

Can he really deceive my detection?

No, his range was just 15 meters away from me, so the skill couldn't display.

Interesting, it seems that there are a lot of informants in the village.

'Aliyah, there's another person following you, I leave it to you.'

'Oh oh oh, got it!'

It seems that the guy got caught.

Next...

I looked around and then turned directly towards the guy called Baldwin and walked quickly towards him.

The other person was obviously startled and quickly turned and ran towards the alley!

Do you think you can escape?

I accelerated and directly rushed over, then used Shadow Stealth in the shadow of a house and appeared in front of him.

"Yo, Uncle Baldwin."

I flashed in front of him and smiled.

The other person was obviously frightened, suddenly hit the brakes, but still bumped into me.

Then he sat on the ground with a horrified expression and stared at me.

"You, you, you..."

"What's wrong? Weren't you always watching me? Or were you looking at the two girls next to me? How can that be~ If you have any thoughts about the girls next to me, forget about me, they will erase your existence completely~ By the way, it's not a good place to talk here, let's go somewhere else."

Although I don't know this person's identity, if this person's occupation is a blacksmith, maybe he's a resident of this village.

It wouldn't be good if others saw us.

With that, I grabbed him and directly flashed into the forest.

"Hey! Wow! How did... this..."

"Alright, you have one minute to explain why you were watching us."

I pinned him to a nearby tree and froze him and the tree together with ice.

"I... I don't know anything! I just..."

"Don't know? Then why were you watching us?"

"Someone told me to watch you, and if you planned to go to the mine, I should report to him."

"The mine..."

Good, got a clue.

By the way, Marl mentioned before that something happened only after someone checked the mine.

Interesting, it seems like I have to go take a look at the mine.

"Who is this person? Why are you working for him?"

"That person... that person was wearing a red and white robe. He suddenly came to my house the day before yesterday, and he said if I didn't listen to him, he would kill my daughter!"

"Oh, he kidnapped your daughter?"

"No, but he tied a strange thing around her neck and said it would explode if I didn't listen!"

Geez, these things should be said earlier. Where is your house?

"To the right side of my previous location, on the second floor."

"Okay!"

I quickly chugged a bottle of fast mana regeneration potion, then grabbed him and teleported back to our previous location.

"Oyado, the little girl on the second floor, take off the necklace around her neck!"

"Understood, big brother!"

A dark shadow flickered, and a scream from the little girl on the second floor came through the window, followed by the necklace being thrown out!

"Ice arrow!"

A blue light flashed, and the ice arrow flew into the sky with the necklace before exploding with a loud bang!

"What... just happened!"

The village chief rushed over in panic.

"Somebody threatened the people in your village and planted a bomb on the child. Damn it, village chief, you better have a serious talk with the villagers. The enemy might have infiltrated the village."

"Such a thing actually happened! Alright, I will talk to them."

"You better do it quickly. You are already surrounded, and if there isn't unity within, you're really screwed."

"Uh... I understand."

The village chief's face turned serious, and he started gathering the people nearby.

Meanwhile, I started contacting Aliyah.

"Aliyah, how's the situation over there?"

"That guy turned out to be a fake."

"A fake?"

"He suddenly collapsed and turned into a dummy."

"Substitution jutsu? You better come back first! It won't be good if you fall into an ambush."

"Yeah, and how's the situation over there?"

"Not good either. In any case, we have to go to the mine."
