A day, two days, three days. Elena continued to watch the movements of the three of them clandestinely. Easy actually. If there is any difficulty for Elena, it is this job too boring. But past all that, at least Elena obtained the results of the observations. During his observation here, the result was in line with his estimation, namely the failure of the three of them to survive in this city.
Instead of getting a job, they are stagnant as unemployed. Day by day the money they had was getting less and less for their living expenses in that city. Even at night they have to sleep on the side of the road so it is not usual to collect money. They're going to go and leave town. But with Elena here, and they're sure of it, they still have doubts about whether to leave the city or wait for a few days. Who knew Elena would change her mind and join the group of the three of them. Unfortunately, their thinking was too naive, until they were in this condition.

One night, they went into quiet, narrow alleys. Just like the days before, they were looking for a bed tonight. Want to sleep next to a large street or in the storefront is not possible. They will have to be expelled again.
"Anger, it's cold tonight." Said Rena while shivering. "Are we really spending the night here?"
"Is there another option?" ask Dorm.
"Ugh, until when will we face this suffering?" comment Fint.
"Calm down, kid. Back when the caravan troupe passed through the high mountain, the air there was very cold and some of us froze to death. The temperature was nothing compared to that time. Strengthen yourself." Rena cheers.
"Talk good. Doing it is hard" replied Fint.
"Huh, if I could I'd like to be in my workshop and warm myself by the furnace" Dorm said.
"But where is it possible, right?" said Rena.
On the opposite side of the three of them who were in fatigue, Elena with Aya sat by a bonfire on the roof of one of the buildings. The night air did not feel cold at all thanks to the black robe he was wearing. In addition, the thing that made him excited, on top of the campfire there was a pot containing noodles that were being boiled.
"Khukhukhu. Finally after a long time, I get fried noodles." A wicked laugh sounded from Elena. It was like a villain who almost managed to conquer the world alone he. "After a long time spent with noodle soup, I as a follower of the fried noodle sect, I will gain my true strength after eating this fried noodle. Khukhu…."
"{Weird man,}" said Aya, "{Urusan 'fried noodles' same 'boiled noodles' only until there is his own sect.}"
"Originally you know, yeah?" Elena's gaze sharply fell on Aya. "It's still mending between fried noodles and noodle soup. Later if you have entered the porridge world, it will be even more difficult because there is a stirred porridge sect vs. a porridge sect is not stirred. The fight between the two was much more epic."
"{And you get into which stronghold?}"
"I'm eating porridge with chopsticks, anyway" said Elena, "Let's get it."
"{Terupon, deh,}" said Aya without interest, "{By the way, it looks like the party we are targeting has started to move.}" Aya stood on the side of the roof of the building. He looked down, at the silhouette of a moving black shadow figure precipitating and suspicious. "{Good because finally our mission in this world will be finished soon.}"
"really. The enemy must be destroyed." Elena stands. His expression became bad bin creepy. "How dare they show up when I boil fried noodles. I will destroy them and bury them from the precious lesson engraved in the depths of their souls."
'{This person is indeed sableng.}'
Back to Rena and friends. They can only swear off their bad luck over getting a bad place as a bed. And without them noticing, a figure approached them quietly in the dark.
The smoke fog exploded and covered the area with thick smoke. The views of the three of them were interrupted — could not see at all. Every second of walking, Rena felt her eyes become heavier. The more you want to close the drowsiness. Eventually, he lost consciousness and did not know what was going on. The last thing he saw was his two friends who had also collapsed losing consciousness.

When Rena wakes up, she finds herself in a rocky room. The roof, the cold, the floor, here is made of stone completely. Looking here and there, there were some black-robed people with hoods covering half their heads. Looking the other way, there was a hole of some kind of well from which a red light glowed out. It was as if there was something evil stored up inside.
"The three of them are gonna be a mash-up tonight, huh? Where are they from this time?" One of the robed men said.
"Just a stranger" the other replied, "You are lost, no one will care for them. We just need to get our job done fast."
Rena tried to stand up and move her hand, but was unable to. There he noticed a rope coiling his body and tied it tightly.
'Dangerous…. I couldn't move, ' she whispered in her mind. 'Who and what is their purpose? The security in this city is excellent. They can't be ordinary criminals. What can I do?'
The robed men stood around Rena along with Dorm and Fint. "All right, let's start" said one of them.
Before you can do something ….
*boom!*
The sound of a huge explosion occurred followed by the smoke of a devastating explosion.
"Good good, I don't have to be hard-pressed to find this place thanks to following you." The shadow of a figure is formed. From there came Elena while carrying Wakizashi. "Now what should I do, huh?"
"Elena!" Rena yelled to him.
"No need to worry, no need to worry," Elena said pretently, "When I came to the battlefield, there the enemy ended. Guarantee 100% win, if you lose please ask for cashback."
"{Nyan, can't you just flatten everything?}" Aya meowed, "{Or else everything is destroyed, our work is in order, right?}"
The robed people fell silent and dumbfoundedly looked at Elena who had arrived here. Maybe it still makes sense that what appears is a tall, large, and muscular man, but the figure of a little girl? How did he get here? Of all the guards above, how could he accept entry? This is a heavily guarded secret place. There is no way children can enter it as easily as playing games.
"Who are you!" sniped one of them.
"Does that matter?" Elena walked slowly while carrying Wakizashi in her right hand. "No matter who I am, I came to eradicate— I mean finish the job my boss gave me. So do not blame your death on me, blame my superiors for giving such a task. Truly 'I am just doing my job'. Nothing less and nothing more."
Those people are stunned.
"You agree with me, don't you? You killed people 'on orders of superiors', didn't you?" added Elena. "Justify actions by blaming others. What a funny logic."
