After meeting with Arthur Reinhard try to find the boy that Arthur mentioned but he didn't encounter a situation that Arthur described will happen when he decided to turn around Reinhard catch a glimpse of several flowers petals carried by the wind and enter an alley

"That is..." Reinhard following where the petals of the flowers are gone and find himself in an alley where he sees three thugs surrounded a boy that has an appearance matching with what Arthur describes

"Stop right there!"

When the three thugs hear the voices their reaction is to beat the person who dares to interfere with their business "No matter what the circumstances are, I will not allow you to perpetuate any more violence against that young man. That is enough."

Subaru was at a loss for words at the young man's bold attitude, but the thugs' reactions were different. All of the thugs' faces went pale, and with quivering lips, they pointed at Reinhard

"Reinhard… Are you the Sword Saint Reinhard?!"

"Well, I suppose I don't have to waste time introducing myself. …Although I am not fond of that title everyone gives me. It's still too heavy for me," the man called Reinhard muttered with a tinge of self-deprecation in his voice. But the light in his eyes was unwavering.

The thugs, overpowered by Reinhard stare, took one step back. They looked at each other as if trying to determine the best time to escape.

"If you're planning on running away, I'll let you off this time. Just head back out toward the main street. However, if you plan on being stubborn, you will have to deal with me."

Reinhard put his hand on the hilt of his sword and motioned to Subaru behind him with his chin.

"We're down three against two. They have the advantage of us in numbers. I'm not sure if the little help I can give will be enough to make a difference, but I will do the best I can, on my honor as a knight."

"Wha-what?! Are you kidding me? This isn't even a contest!" After hearing what Reinhard had said, the trio completely out of sorts. They scattered like baby spiders, forgetting to even hide their weapons as they ran out onto the main street

'With his power, this little problem is not challenging at all, then why he didn't step up personally instead of guiding me here?' Although he is thinking about another thing inside his head Reinhard still talking with Subaru and get to know each other

'Silver hair and white robe... cat? Is he talking about Emilia-sama? Did something happen to her? Is she the one that Arthur refers to?'

But that thought is immediately dismissed by Reinhard because he thinks she didn't fit the description given by Arthur

"Loot cellar?" Reinhard pick an interesting name of a place from Subaru murmur but before he asks more details about it Subaru divert the topic of conversation and leave after he said he will meet him again after everything is over

"So he is my guide to the last candidate? Well it seems I need to visit that loot cellar"

....

After Subaru persuading Felt to sell the badge directly to him, Subaru feels anxious because Felt thinks she will get more if she waits for her clients.

"You can't be a greedy person, Felt. My metia is worth more than twenty sacred gold coins!"

"The item in my hand so I have the last word to whom I will sell it!"

".... who is it?"

Suddenly, Rom's expression changed and he looked toward the entrance. Subaru, still in a state of shock from the negotiations breaking down, was too late to react to Rom's voice.

"It could be my client. It does seem a little early, though." Felt went over to the door, with her angry expression still on her face, and reached to open it.

Subaru suddenly identified the impatient feelings welling up inside him. The loot cellar, Felt's client, The killer word when he found out the dead body—all of those signals could only lead to one thing.

"Don't open the door! We'll all be killed!!" From the windows, he could see the sun still high in the sky. It was too bright to be past sunset and different with the time when he has come to this place with Rem so the possibility of the killer coming at this time is high

"If all of you didn't want to give back what you stole from Emilia-sama then I need to consider about killing all of you or not," said Rem as she stepped into the cellar

"You can't say such horrible stuff easily like that Rem" Emilia voice is heard from behind as she following Rem enter the cellar

I'm so glad you're here… I won't let you get away this time." Upon seeing Felt, Emilia walk in through the door with Rem, Felt wordlessly stepped back.

Felt looked mortified and her mouth twisted in frustration. "You really are a persistent woman, aren't you… Why couldn't you just give up already?" said Felt, sounding as though she was on the verge of grinding her teeth together.

"Unfortunately, this is not something I can give up on. …If you'll be a good girl and hand it over I won't hurt you," replied Emilia, the tone of her voice incredibly cold.

Seeing the development is not on her favor Felt try to search a way to flee but Subaru tries to make Felt, Rem and the new girl that possibly called as Emilia-sama is compromising but before he can achieve it Subaru see there is a shadow moving behind the silver hair girl

"On your back!" The time is tight so Subaru can't give a clear warning, instinctively people will look at their back when there is someone who is shouting like that to them but fortunately, after several rounds of sparring with Arthur, Emilia and Rem choose a different way to defend themselves.

Emilia leaped forward while a shield from ice is created by Puck to protecting her back, as for Rem following Emilia she also leaped forward and turned around, and a striking head of the flail crashing the place where she is standing before.

Puck lifted up its nose, proud of its save before looking toward Subaru. "That was just in the nick of time there. You saved us."

"A spirit, a spirit, huh? Ah…ha-ha… That's wonderful. I haven't ever opened the stomach of a spirit before." before Subaru can answer Puck, Elsa come out from different directions where she is attacking before, lifting her dangerous weapon in front of her face, Elsa's expression was one of ecstasy.

Elsa didn't attack immediately instead she speaks about her disappointment to Felt, but because of that she failed to notice Puck who is accumulating mana and launch an attack from everywhere and seal her retreat path.

Unfortunately, the sneak attack from Puck is failed because she wears a robe that imbued with magic, although it was just one-time use magic the robe successfully save her from Puck's attack.

Emilia spread the frost from her feet to cover the cellar and turn it into her advantage, with Puck's help who is launching an attack from unexpected angles Emilia makes Elsa focus on defense. Seeing the opportunity is come Rem use her flail to hit Elsa who is jumping for avoiding Emilia's attack but thanks to her battle experience Elsa fȯrċɨbŀƴ twist her body and avoiding Rem's flail.

Before she can make a counterattack a huge spike club is coming to her head, As Rom swung his club, it brought a gust of air along with it, and as Elsa ducked her hair was caught up a little in the blast.

Seeing his attack is failed Rom swung his thorny pointed club at Elsa, he changed his line of attack. He thrust the club toward Elsa's throat, but Rom froze at the result because Elsa is stood on the tip of Rom's club and before anyone can react Elsa swung her blade horizontally at Rom. The strike was level with Rom's forehead. If it landed, the top of his head would be sent flying.

Shing! went the sound of Elsa's sword as it collided with a knife thrown by Felt. The collision had altered the path of Elsa's sword, but the side of it still collided full force into the side of Rom's head. A dull sound rang out as Rom toppled over to the side.

With Puck who is gone because of his work time is over and Rom who is faint, the treat to Elsa is diminishing greatly. After persuading Felt to flee because she is the fastest person in there, Subaru joins the battle with the club he picks from the unconsciousness Rom.

Subaru fighting against Elsa on close combat while Emilia and Rem ȧssisting him with their ice magic, but unfortunately their enemies are not an amateur.

"I feel bored now, let's end this" Elsa stop dodging the attack from Emilia and Rem, she uses her kukri to smash the ice magic and then she catches Subaru's feet "I catch you"

Elsa smiles and raises her kukri to chop Subaru's feet but before she can do it there is an explosion coming from the roof and when the dust is settled a tall, handsome young man with flaming red hair and blue eyes that wearing Royal Knight uniform appear.

"Reinhard. Ah, yes. The knight among knights…and of the 'Sword Saint' lineage. Well, that's amazing. I never thought I'd meet such an enjoyable opponent. I'll have to thank my employer now for giving this job, now won't I?"

"There are many things I would like to ask you. I recommend you surrender, however…"

"Would you say to a starving predator as it stands before its wounded prey, a perfect specimen and already dripping blood, to bear its hunger and move on?" Elsa licked her thin red lips ėrȯtɨċally with a look of ecstasy in her case as she stared at Reinhard.

"I see," Reinhard responded, scratching at the side of his cheek as though he wished there was another way.

Reinhard suddenly turned his eyes away from Elsa and looked about the inside of the loot cellar. Eyes eventually settled on an old-looking two-handed sword propped up against the wall. Reinhard used his foot to kick up on the hilt, sending the unsheathed sword spinning through the air. He easily grabbed it in his hand and swung it once lightly as if testing it out.

The battle between Elsa and Reinhard is happening with Elsa move as fast as she can but before she can swing her kukri she got kicked by Reinhard and send flying back several meters before she can stabilize herself.

When the battle between the main character is happening Emilia comes to Rom's side and uses her magic and asks Rem to help her so they can treat Rom's wound.

Sensing Emilia and Rem complete the treatment Reinhard decides to end the battle and with a swing of his sword, a brilliant light blew off the roof of the loot cellar and ripped right through it, cutting the entire space into two halves.

Air was distorted as residual waves from the attack swept over the room and caused strong gusts to rush, spiraling back into the center of the room. Along with those gusts, stolen items, furniture, and even materials from the building's structure itself were pulled in.

The effect of this attack does not just destroy the building but because Reinhard absorbs all of the mana in the surrounding area makes Emilia and Rem feel weak and need to help each other so they won't feel.

The unexpected things are happening

Elsa jumps out of the rubble and slashing her kukri with intentions to kill Rem who is protecting Emilia with her body but Subaru blocks her attack with the club, alas her strength is not something that he can block easily and he was thrown backward.

Reinhard is too far from Rem and Emilia and Subaru is unconsciousness with a slight of blood can be seen leak out from his body, seeing this is her last chance Elsa focus all of her power on this last strike but there is someone who will not permit it to happen.

Arthur appears in front of Rem and blocks Elsa's advance, with a wave of his hand Arthur deflect Elsa's kukri with his sword, although it seems he didn't use that much power Elsa's kukri is thrown out off her hand and then it was split into two before falling into the ground.

"My my my... who it is now? At first, it was the Sword Saint and now there is another person who is blocking me from completing the mission, it seems I need to complain to my employer about the difficulty of this mission" Elsa look at Arthur and lick her lips seductively, even though she is complaining about it but she is very happy because strong person is appearing one after another, from the first collision between her and him, Elsa can judge if the person in front of her is not that inferior compared to the Sword Saint.

"Please to meet you, Elsa Granhiert. My name is Arthur Spencer, Lady Emilia's knight" honestly Arthur feels if not for her head that has something loose she is very beautiful women "Alas... I think it's time to draw the curtain on this performance"
