Whaddaya want?

I'd like to meet with Magistrate
Ragou, if you'd be so kind.

Yuri, these men are mercenaries.
I wonder what guild they're from...

I guess that explains the thuggish look.

Hmph, go home! Scram!
The magistrate is a busy man.

Surely not too busy to rough
up the people in this town?

Hey, you better watch
your mouth, punk!

See, I told you he wouldn't
see us. Let's get out of here
before things get sticky.

I'd have to agree with Captain Karol on this one.

But, there must be some other way...

Forget it. Let's go.

We'd best leave the frontal assault on
the palace to the Imperial Knights.

But isn't the fact that that's
going so badly precisely what's
got Flynn in such a bad mood?

Hmph. Maybe he'd see
us if we came bearing
gifts, so to speak?

A gift?
What do you mean?

The Rhybgaro. It's worth a fair
amount of money, right?

Come to think of it, that official
mentioned the Rhybgaro.

He said that someone with its horn would
never have to worry about taxes again.

If we brought something that valuable, the
magistrate would at least grant us an audience.

You propose to catch
the Rhybgaro?

This is our chance!
It's raining, after all!

What does rain have to do with it?

The Rhybgaro comes out of
hiding when it's raining!

Out of all the monsters I
know, it's the only one
that goes out in the rain.

Capital observation, Captain
Karol. What else?

...What do you mean, “what else?”
That's all there is to it!

So where's the Rhybgaro now?

Er, uh...

...Just as I thought.

Well then, let's go talk to the people in
town and get their side of the story.

Are you okay with
this, Estelle?

Yes, Yuri.

If we're unlucky, this could put all
of us on the wrong side of the law.

The one who makes the laws in this town
is his lordship, the empire's magistrate.
You'd be okay with defying him?

...I'm going with you.

You're okay with it, then.

Yes.

Rita, you don't have any problems with it?

I have to say, I'm incredibly interested in
a blastia that can control the weather.

Then it's decided!

So then, let's seek out
the Rhybgaro first.
