There was a cloaked figure that appeared beside after I asked this.
Hayato imdiately moved back when he saw this, but I just calmly looked at this figure since I recognized them.
It was Nadia who had appeared.
She looked at Motoyasu for a few seconds before turning to to say, "Thank you for doing your part. We've gotten all of the evidence that we needed."
I just revealed a smile and gave a nod before saying, "I'm happy to help."
Nadia gave a nod before raising her hand and giving a wave.
When she did, there were several more cloaked figures that suddenly appeared all around us.
They went to the dark clothed figures that were just standing there and then as if they were pulling them from sothing, these dark clothed figures fell down limp.
When one looked closer, they could see that these dark clothed figures had all been held up by sothing.
That was why they had been able to stand even though it didn't seem like they were conscious.
There were these string like threads that had been holding them up the entire ti.
At the sa ti, judging by the thin red marks that were at their necks, it should have also been these threads that had knocked them out in the first place.
Or at least I thought that they were knocked out…
Seeing that we were about to leave, Motoyasu started to panic and he said, "Wait, don't leave here! I'll tell you whatever you want if you take with you!"
But I just shook my head when I heard this.
From the very beginning, all of this had been a trap for Motoyasu.
I had let him think that he had the advantage so that he would confess without needing much prompting, but I never thought that it would work so well that he would confess everything.
One really did let down their guard when they thought that victory was already in hand.
He was the perfect example of this.
Hayato looked like he was hesitating when he heard this, but I took him by the shoulder and led him away.
Once we were gone, Nadia and the others took Motoyasu and the dark clothed figures away.
As for what they would do with them, one really wouldn't want to find out.
One could only be sure that it wasn't a good thing.
When Hayato and I got far enough away, I stopped and looked at him to say, "Sorry I had to get you caught up in that. I had no choice but to involve you or else he wouldn't have let his guard down like that."
Hayato didn't say anything at first as he just looked at in silence for a bit before suddenly giving a sigh and saying, "I understand why you did it and I can see that it even involved the guild…"
His voice trailed off for a bit before he said, "But I just can't understand why he would do sothing like this. There's nothing to gain from doing sothing like this…"
I didn't answer his doubts when he said this.
I could have answered them and put his mind at ease, but there were so things that were better for him not to know until the ti was right.
So instead, I said, "You'll find out why when you read the paper tomorrow."
Hayato looked at with a confused look, but he didn't ask anything else.
Instead, he asked, "When did you find out that he was a spy?"
I calmly said, "When we went drinking that one ti and you told all about how he kept disappearing. I reported that to the guild and it turned out that there was a lot of evidence that pointed him out as a spy."
Hayato took a deep breath and gave a sigh again, but he didn't say anything this ti.
There was nothing for him to say this ti since everything had already been made very clear.
If he was old enough, I would have treated him to a drink at a ti like this.
It was just too bad that Hayato was still too young for that.
So instead, I said, "How about we get so food? My treat."
Hayato looked at for a bit before slowly giving a nod.
The two of us…no, the three of us since Su Chen was also here headed off to a restaurant where we just numbed ourselves with food.
But for the guild, the work was far from over.
They not only had to take care of the people that they had gathered, they also had to co up with a news article.
This was the crux of our plan, the part that ca after capturing these spies.
The next morning, there was a shocking article that appeared on the front pages of many newspapers.
"Amaterasu sends spies into fellow guild, Elentia."
When this news spread across the world, the entire world exploded.
There were all kinds of different discussions that appeared on the internet and there were many people that tried to create even more trouble from this.
Amaterasu ca forward with their own press conference to deny this matter. However, soon after that press conference, there was a video that was leaked to the internet.
It was a video of Motoyasu admitting that he was from Amaterasu and had been sent to spy on Elentia.
When this stone was cast, the ripples were just too big for Amaterasu to quell.
The Awakener Association had no choice but to send an investigative team to handle this matter.
This was all what Elentia had wanted to see.
This was what we had planned for Amaterasu.
With this blow to their reputation, it would be hard for them to lay their stake on the SS Rank Dungeon now.
It was almost guaranteed that Elentia would receive the rights to explore the SS Rank Dungeon.
