We still lacked information. It was important to be adventurous and level up, but now more information was needed.

I contacted Orca’s friend Linda again. I wanted to know about the investigation that Orca was doing before becoming unconscious. I was dismissed without learning very much.

So, I asked Linda to work as an informant once again. I was asked for a fair amount of GP, but I had no complaints.

A reply came sooner than I expected.

She told BlackRose and I the area words that Orca was interested in, and we headed for that area.

It was a pure white space.

A place so spacious and empty that you could see the horizon.

According to Linda, it was said you could hear voices here… but I heard nothing when we spoke. No matter how long I waited, no matter how much I listened, all I could hear was silence.

Instead, there was an unexpected stranger. Looking across the area, it seemed this person may have been one of us.

Balmung moved forward, noticed us and opened his eyes as though startled. But soon he turned to his usual frown and turned away.

“Oh, it’s you guys again. You’re quite the eyesore.”

I saw Balmung and stood at the ready, but I thought that it was more convenient to meet him here.

“I’m not going to argue with you,” I said.

“Please tell me what you mean by having a different purpose in The World.”

That’s what Linda had said. Balmung, who was Orca’s sidekick, must have known that.

“It doesn’t concern you guys.”

“But it does,” I said clearly.

I think I’m, if not the first person involved in this, then perhaps the fifth or sixth person to be involved.

“I see. Let me rephrase,” Balmung said as he gazed at me.

“I’m not going to teach you. I’ve said it many times. Hackers can’t be trusted.”

What a think to say, I sighed in my heart.

The hacker Helba disregarded the question, and Balmunk is treated as a hacker and hated him.

“Hey, should we have the same purpose? I think you want to help Orca, Balmung.”

When I said Orca’s name, I thought I noticed only a slight change in Balmung‘s demeanor. But before we knew it, Balmung had turned his back on us.

“This better not be a waste. Fine, don’t do any more than necessary!”
