Bab 29: Sixth Sense

Inside the Blue Triangle building, which had 66 floors, Kizuna sat on a chair in his office on the 66th floor. His right hand held a pipe while he calmly inhaled tobacco smoke.

A knock on the door interrupted the silence in the room.

"Come in," Kizuna permitted.

Someone wearing a fox mask entered the room, then walked up to Kizuna and knelt.

"Master, the troops we sent failed to kill the King of Hell Hound. The Hell Hound horde is still causing problems in Naraki."

Kizuna remained silent for a moment before asking, "Their strength should have been enough to kill the monster. Have you investigated the reason for their failure?"

The person with the fox mask nodded.

"Yes, Master, we have investigated. We found that the wounds on their bodies seemed to be caused not only by the King of Hell Hound but also by another attack, which contributed to their failure."
