"I definitely shouldn\'t get entangled with nobles," Rain thought. "Those guys are all sort of bad news."

During those days of wait, Rain tried to think of how he could learn the spell that the enemies used and how he could detect people by the magic presence as well… that would be really convenient. However, that was common sense; if he thought of that, many did the same and probably tried to learn such a skill, but he had never heard of anything like it.

"Appraisal and Analyze are common skills in games that reveal information… still, having them in the real world would be too damn useful," Rain thought. "Seeing weakness would be too much, but even so… just a bit of information might change the ending of some wars."

It was probably too much to hope for a skill that would give him information with letters and numbers, but Rain would accept just enough if he could feel the mana of those around him. That would be a starting point… unfortunately, nothing came to mind during those free days.

The day to return to the dressmaker finally arrived, and just like before, they were heading toward the atelier before lunch. Rain looked at Lorene, but she just shrugged.

"If something happens, I will be counting on you," Lorene said.

"If anything, you have the guts to trust that much of my skills to protect you," Rain furrowed his eyebrows.

"I am counting on your desire to receive the payment for this mission more than anything," Lorene said.

"I guess that is more logical," Rain said.

The guards had recovered from the wounds that they suffered before, so they were truly itching to make up for the failure the last time. They didn\'t do anything, and a nine-year-old boy took the glory from them and also saved their skin… while they felt grateful, they also felt ashamed since adults aren\'t supposed to be saved by children.

While they were heading to the dressmaker, Rain couldn\'t help but think that if the whole group was itching that much for a fight, the enemies might not want to come and attack them… Rain was certain that the enemies only used minions that they wouldn\'t miss, but even so, it would be foolish to try the same thing.

"It doesn\'t seem like anyone went missing, so the people that died are from outside…" Rain thought. "The people here didn\'t recognize anyone suspicious missing either… how did they arrive in the port city, then?"

While thinking about such a thing, Rain and the others arrived at the dressmaker atelier. However, at such a moment… Rain suddenly had a bad feeling, and then a certain idea crossed his mind.

"Wait," Rain said. "Don\'t enter the building."

"What is wrong?" Lorene asked.

"It is just a bad feeling…" Rain replied.

Rain tried to use his tracking skill, and he also checked the roof of the nearby buildings, but he didn\'t find anything… and yet, that annoying feeling wasn\'t leaving him alone.

"Is something bothering you?" Lorene asked. "Should we leave?"

"Something is bothering me, but I didn\'t find anything suspicious… so I guess it is fine," Rain replied.

Just like before, the guards checked the interior of the atelier, but they didn\'t find anything out of the norm and soon left. Rain didn\'t feel satisfied with that, and he kept looking around… the dressmaker was acting like usual, so he didn\'t think that she was plotting anything. Still, he had to stop when Lorene had to test the dress.

However, his senses alerted him when he moved too far away from Lorene… in the next moment, the whole building exploded.

The guards outside were pushed away by the blast of the explosion, and then when they got up, they opened their eyes widely when they saw a curtain of dust dissipating, and then they saw a massive pile of rubble in the place of the atelier. They failed to protect the bride of their boss, and they lost their captain as well… their heads will definitely roll after that.

Just when everyone had given up on that, the pile of rubble began to tremble, and before long, it split into two sides… revealing the figures of Rain, Lorene, Julie, and the dressmaker. In the last moment, Rain used his earth magic to erect some walls that protected them against the whole explosion, but it had been a close call.

"Shit… I will never doubt my instincts again," Rain said and then got up before flying upward using an earth platform and checking everything around in search of the enemy that almost killed them. However, he didn\'t find any signs of the culprit. "Sneaky piece of shit…"

Naturally, the enemy wouldn\'t stay around to see the results of their actions if they succeeded or not… in any case, that kind of ability was really handy. Rain had no idea why he was considering such a thing only at This time… if the enemy could turn human beings into bombs, It wouldn\'t be weird if they could make buildings fall that easily as well.

"No luck?" Julie asked when Rain returned, and then he shook his head. "They really are trying all sorts of things to get us killed."

"I am going to catch them… but oh, I will, and then I will turn their lives into a living hell," Lorene said while clenching her fists. "At least my dress only got a bit of dust… don\'t worry. I will make sure that you will get your atelier and materials to work again."

The dressmaker nodded, but she didn\'t look very convinced of it… she still looked like everything she worked for was completely gone.
