HikiNEET Vs Thief Couple

the neighborhood couple Kevin and Alicia, concerning Ellis, they were really kind as the attend her.
They managed Angus's Funeral, and everytime they were inviting Ellis for meals.
Alica was treating as if she was her own child, Alicia help Ellis' hand when they go to the town to shop or when they contact the Thief Guild.
yes, they were too  kind.
if it is this 8-year old Ellis, if this the pace goes she would undoubtly be adopted.
inside the HikiNeetaround 30.

"Suspicious"

to start with, Ellis-Eiji felt this point.
a really uncomfortable feeling.
saying that they were neighbors, there isn't any person who has good intention to go this far.
right now the walk with Alicia will serve this purpose.
Alicia believed that Ellis had lost her memories, she answered what ever Ellis asked.
The unit of currency of this world is called Rill. looking at the market price, at least regarding food and clothing ,there is no mistake 1 rill = 1 yen roughly.
She also confirm that she can also read the letters of this world. the letters of the shop-frong or the Guild papers and etc, she smoothly read them.
she also understood the relationship of the Thief Guild and the Adventurer Guild.
a thief is 100% with the Thief Guild. and then those who hope to work as and aventure at the Thief guild, will register as [Thief Adventurer].
the diffence between Theif adventurers and thieves, thief adventurers doesn't recieve daily wages from the guild  like the thieves. moreover they are obligated to pay 10% of the rewards from their adventures.
for general thieves the labor contract is tied with the guild like a salary man, and Thief Adventurers just for the Thief Guilds patronage they have to pay for the membership fee like a franchise contract. (TL: why is the author using business terms when the MC is an HIkiNEET!!!)
and then Thief guild, subordinates thieves who becomes an adventurer as a rule they are no allowed to stop.
choosing to be a management is not an idiotic choice, since its not like that, it just an other way to raise income from the guild.(TL: OTL 幹部候補生はそんな馬鹿な選択はしないし、そうでないものは一方的にギルドの収入となるから。)

Ellis thought about it.

from the couple Kevin and Alicia, as much as possible i want to stay away from them. however she was a in an infilitration unit with her deceased father. She can't go against the Guild's orders.
most of all the most unpleasant premonition is Kevin, he is the leader of the [intelligence] unit.

"first of all  i need to search for someone handy to protect me"

Elllis-Eiji, first, she checked every nook and corner on her own house. at this point she realized her ability regarding as a thief.
the hidden doors was altogether found, she unlocked all of her father's treasures.
She found her father's diary and her diary. she carefully read it. and then, she experience her father and her own self.
next, she found a fleeting shine of an earing.
she picked it up with her hand, and next spontaneously words surfaced in her mind. while the faint light disappeared.
[Earing of the Intelligence. it possible steal a conversation and hear it. scope of effectiveness is 1000bit. required mind power 3. Command word is 【strain my ears】]
It would be bad if a 8 year old wears an earing
on her left hand was Ellis favorite Katyusha and on her right hand was the earing of the intelligence, and she naturally recited. (TL: katyusha is like a hairband)
[Magic Tool Duplication][Katyusha of the Intelligence. it possible steal a conversation and hear it. scope of effectiveness is 1000bit. required mind power 3. Command word is 【strain my ears】]
its seems that 1 bit = 10 cm. (9: those who are lazy to calculate its 10000cm or 100 meters)
Ellis wore the Katyusha on her head.
and then, since most properties were solid she stored them at the treasure box, after that she went toward her neighbor's house.

"Kevin-san, Alicia-san, Konichiwa" (TL: konichiwa can mean hello or good day, but konichiwa is more cuter -d-)

A smiled appeared on Alicia. Kevin also inside the living room while beckoning Ellis.

the wife is more better at talking, but , the the husband was more suspicios.

at that day, Ellis passed time with them  till midday afterwards, at the time Kevin was returning he was the target of the intelligence.

"stop being so noisy, just wait a bit more longer"

perhaps on the other side it was Alicia shouting.

"i know, but, even so wont it be bad if put my hand on her while she is mourning" (TL: this is not meant in a perverted way just in case -d-)

"after all she is just an 8 year old brat. if this goes on even we would be emotionally attached to her"

"well, lets wait and see for a little bit more. that bastard Angus, since i'm going to make Ellis my subordinate, i will have her search that guy's house"

"its totally fine, indeed if that 8year old blonde doll becomes a Intelligence she would be remarkable, others would also think so"

"then if i sell her of to the nobles as their adopted daughter, she could infilitrate the the upper stream class, all and every information will be going to my hands."

"The money we paid to kill the guy which is 1million rill, it can immidiately be recovered"

"that guy taking Ellis with her was out of our expectation. isn't it fine, since she survived in the end"

Ellis smiled. she won't symphatize, since she understood that they are just trash.
just that, there is no proof. if thats the case she had to betray their expectations by slowly revealing a proper amount of what they had hidden.
Ellis closed her Intelligence magic power, just before it got dark she went out.

Ellis went towards the adventurer guild. (TL: thief guild and adventurer guild are different guilds -d-)
since more or less she know that Kevin and Alica are just like those,  she needs to do something.
but, what can just a one 8 year girl do and she can only smile. if she does it poorly they will get suspicious.
accordingly what Ellis started was to searh for a suitable [guardian]. (TL: well guardian here means someone to protect her -d-)
someone that can act for her.

Ellis entered at the Adventurer guild, first of all she went full speed towards the reception desk where a woman is.

"Frau-san, hello"

"ah, Ellis. i'm happy you are doing fine"

due to the Thief guild requests, father came to help adventurers many times, thats why Ellis and Frau were accquaintances.
Frau's age is about 18 years old. An intellectual face, she is skilled with handling a rowdy set of adventurers. even the advanturers, her red eye and pink skin, flame flame, from her passionate impresson a gentle "is something wrong?" leaks out, the gap in the voice, makes them madlly fall in love and becomes docile. from the rumours, it seemd that she is the daughter of the Guild Master.
Ellis-eiji heard it around here when she went with a stroll with Alicia, naturally the conversations can be about Frau.
And then, Ellis stopping by the adventurer guild makes a quite natural atmosphere, she did viewed inside the guild.
mostly it dirty old men. inside there was handsome guys but, it has no meaning for the sleazebag inside Ellis.
oh, that girl has a good impression.
right there was , a girl wearing a typical swordsman outfit.
for just making an alibi, she expressively to frau "She might be an accquaintance" she raised her voice, afterwards she went towards the female swordsman.

from her impression her age is about 16. with a uniform green shaggy hair, and a same green long slitted eyes , was looking for something at the Guild notice board. and sometime she sighed.
Ellis with a big smile, she raised her voice towards her.

"Onee-san, is there something wrong?"

The girl dropped her gaze towards Ellis, from her long slitted eyes she wasn't able to imagine it, she was staring a cute looking doll, she looked at Ellis with tender eyes.

"its just a little bit, cute little girl" (9: sounds better in jp "kawaii oujo-san)

The girl only followed this much.
Ellis saw her dispatching her gaze on a quest. it was an exploration quest. the HikiNEET had seen thought the meaning of that one sigh.

"do you want to take up the exploration quest?"

Ellis asked her, and then she continued.

"I am Ellis. I may look like this but, I'm a member of the Thief Guild you know"

and she shower the girl the proof that she was a Theif Guild member.

"i'm surprised, oujo-chan, so you are a full-fledge thief"

the girl replied and then continued on.

"ah, i apologize. I am Reeve . A swordsman in training."

Oh, i caught her attention. after all i am a girl with a 10? year gap with her.

"i saw Swordsman-san sigh at the exploration quest, you lack a 100% thief right?"

"as expected from oujo-chan, Ellis-chan was it?"

And then Ellis and Reeve, went to a open table and started to discuss.
