Tadak!
“There.”
You arrive in front of the building, feeling the energy of the assassins, and point your hand at it.
It was a fairly old and shabby three-story building, unlike Carsia, which was used by the servants.
“Hmm, was there a building like this inside the Resistance? Thank you, Kaiyan. The knights must go inside and subdue the wife. ”
“Yes, my lord! ”
Dozens of knights followed you on your way here broke the entrance to the closed building without hesitation at the erl's command.
Kwajic!
“There will be assassins! Keep your guard up, everyone! ”
“You can kill all the rebels!" The Countess must be captured alive! ”
‘Is it really necessary for me to stand up...? ’
The energy of the assassins in the building is only 15 people.
It's only a matter of time before dozens of knights overwhelm them, since only one of them is a minor Expert.
While pausing to figure out what to do, the erl who was standing next to me walked towards the building.
“Then I'll go inside, too. ”
“Yes? The Lord is in danger! We'll take care of it!”
“What are you worried about with you? I'm just relieved to see it. Go inside.”
If the Marquis enters, it is natural for me to enter the building as well.
You leap forward and follow the trail into the ruined building, rooting out the overpowering knights.
Chaen! Chaen!
As you go inside, the sound of the sword slamming along the old corridor echoes into your ears.
The senses suggested that the assassins were surrendering while blocking the narrow staircase, but the Knights' strength is high, so they should be breached soon.
‘The Marquis's wife... is on the third floor. Then why were you here? ’
Maybe she was just hiding, but it's weird that she didn't think of an escape route that she had planned for the assassins.
If you didn't think it was possible, you could have used the Temporary Wizards to escape even if you asked House Barclon for help.
“Rrrrgh!”
“Now! Push! ”
Walking up the stairs in line with the Marquis, the knights' swords turn the assassins upside down one by one.
Now there's only one assassin guarding the stairs.
An intermediate Expert assassin who was the most capable of coming back from 15 assassins.
He picks up a strange square box from his chest and opens his mouth with a hollow smile.
“Khh... I guess I didn't kill the erl." I thought it would fail, but it ended sooner than I thought. ”
“How dare you go after the lord! Die quietly! ”
“Dying is inevitable... but I don't intend to die so easily! Now that this is over, let's die together! ”
Qajik!
The assassin sees something and breaks the box in his hand.
What are you trying to do? ’
Just in case, I checked what magic was in that box beforehand, but I felt no magical energy in the box.
But his face is as self-confident as mine.
“Kill him before he makes a fool of himself! ”
“Khh! You're late! Already... Cough! ”
The man with the mean smile suddenly threw up a violent cough in his blue face, and he bled out and fell to the ground helplessly.
The surprised knights approached and identified him, and he died of a poisonous, parched face.
What the hell is that? You didn't poison yourself? What he said... ’
We all die together, smash some weird box, and then die alone?
While contemplating the elusive situation, the erl opened his mouth to those seeking orders.
“Never mind the dead. Do what you have to do. ”
“Yes, my lord! Squad 1, search the second floor! ”
Before I could do anything, the knights ascended to the upper levels of Ur, and the baron glanced at me and took a step down the stairs.
I couldn't let him go alone, so I quickly followed him and talked to him.
“Marquis, it seems strange. ”
“Hmm? What do you mean? ”
“That's what he just said... I wonder why the Countess is here. It would be better if the erl were outside...”
“That's okay. I have knights. What are you worried about?" And you, too. ”
“Still...”
When you reach the second floor and grab the Earl's arm, about to go straight up to the third floor, you smile as if he's okay.
“I want to see it with my own eyes. And I also have a way to protect myself, so don't worry too much. ”
The baron shows me a ring wedged between the index finger and the stops.
An artifact that emits a powerful Mana scent to make sure that magic is imprinted.
“But...”
But I knew that much already. The Marquis wears several artifacts.
Nevertheless, the ambiguous sensation rang in my head, so I caught the Marquis. I thought something would happen if I sent him upstairs.
“That's fine. Let's go before it's too late, then. ”
I gently took my hand off and looked at the Marquis going up to the third floor for a moment, then sighed and followed him.
‘My senses are not shaking too much. If I'm good at being vigilant... It won't be a problem. ’
I couldn't work a bit, thinking I was a fool.
Following the Marquis up to the third floor, the Knights who had already gone up first were checking each room for the Marquis' Wife.
Bang, bang!
“Hmm? The door is closed here! This is it!”
At that moment, a knight waving a closed door at the end of the hall shouted, and the barons and knights gathered toward the room.
Marquis Karsia nods, looking at those knights, and the Knight Sephiron in front of her reaches out forcefully.
Kuang!
The locked door is wide open and shattered.
“Seize the Countess! The Lord has ordered us to capture him alive! ”
“There could be assassins, so don't let your guard down! ”
The knights went in like gunshots, no matter what anyone said, towards the smashed door, and it seemed as if later they went in with the Marquis.
“… Countess. ”
In the dusty room, the Countess stands facing the windows, facing the knights.
As I suspected, the assassins were all dead on their own pretty miserable.
As the knights approach her like that, the baron steps forward, his hands blocked.
“Ma'am, why would you do that? ”
“… What? ”
“Why did you... and why did you try to kill me?" Is that how you wanted to make Lean lord? ”
“Wrong. I wanted to make my son... Jansen lord, not Lian. ”
The Earl's wife's voice, which I had heard again for a long time, was filled with grief.
Unlike the man who tried to kill his late husband, Baran.
“Jansen's death was his own doing. Not a legitimate successor struggle, but he has drawn the power of another family. ”
“I know that much. But that doesn't change the fact that it was Baran who killed Jansen. So I did.”
“Ma'am... I know this is unforgivable, even for you." ”
Without my help, I don't think the Marquis of Carsia would have been easily tolerated, but what the Marquis's wife has planned is unforgivable, as he says.
If things go according to her plan, not only will Lian be appointed heir to the estate, but the Marquis back to the mansion as well.
“So you're going to kill me? ”
“... I won't kill you. If I kill you, Lian will be sad. So stop giving up and put it all down. ”
“I won't kill you... Phew. You're joking. Who says you can kill me all you want? ”
“Ma'am...”
The moment I looked at the Countess with the madness in her eyes, I was half mad.
Woof!
This time, the sensation, which sounded very quiet, shook quite a lot.
When I think of my body as a fake body right now, this kind of fluctuation isn't that big of a risk.
‘It's none of my business... but the Marquis and the Knights. ’
If the danger continues to explode, the knights in this room and the hundreds of soldiers who surround the mansion outside will not know.
‘I was going to leave it to the Marquis... But I'll have to step up. ’
Now all we have to do is catch the Marquis of Honor's wife in front of us, and there's no way we can afford to see that kind of damage.
Walking slowly to the only duchess who can see me here, he turns his head and looks at me in mysterious ways.
“Your Highness, the Countess can't hear me, so don't answer her. I think the Countess may have done something. ”
“That's h-heh! ”
“I don't have time to explain. At this rate, the knights and the soldiers on the first floor will die, even if we don't know the erl. ”
You raise your hand to the erl, looking at her as if to ask what you're talking about.
“May I subdue the Countess? If you don't mind, just nod. There's not much time left. ”
I nodded slightly as if the Marquis was not reluctant to consider my words for a moment.
I know why he looks like that. But as his wife, he wanted to finish it with his own hands.
But that's the only reason you can't sacrifice hundreds of lives. He had no choice but to nod because he knew.
‘Then how can it be solved without damage? ’
I walked slowly towards the latter wife, staring at the baron without knowing anything.
I tried to concentrate my senses on her as I approached her, but there were some objects that were suspected to be artifacts that I felt as well.
But I didn't feel dangerous in those things. That means the artifacts have nothing to do with the risks that could happen in a moment.
‘Where? Where the hell did the danger start... huh? Huh? "
When you're trying to focus your senses elsewhere, you shouldn't feel it here.
No, I felt an energy not meant to be felt here, but also in the arms of the Countess.
What's with the power of Harvard Mime? ’
The energy was very fine, but it was definitely the foreign energy of the monsters of Harvard Maim.
I stared at her dazed for a moment, forgetting that I had to find the beginning of the danger. Why I feel it in her arms.
“Hmmm! Madam, I was saying...”
At that moment, I was clearing my throat to tell my wife whether the erl noticed my condition, and I realized that finding danger was the first thing I could do right now.
Harvaim's energy is dangerous, but that's not the point right now.
‘Let's... get it over with. Where... underground? It's underground! "
Following the danger it felt, the dangerous energy was coming from underground.
I don't know exactly what kind of danger it's going to be, but it's a dangerous aura that will shake like it's going to explode.
You turn your head to look at the Marquis and point your hand at the ground.
“Your Highness, it's underground. I think they're doing something underground... It's dangerous, so I'll just go. ”
“Hmmm!”
Earl Karsia is conscious of my words and shakes her head without saying anything.
I thought it might be dangerous to go with you, or to send knights.
“The Knights won't be much help if they go. I'm fine, so you can stop the Countess from doing anything. ”
The Marquis gives a heavy nod while he ponders.
You lower your head to him and immediately move out of the room to the stairs, avoiding the knights.
“Phew... The Countess doesn't go there easily either. But whatever you're prepared for, it won't work with me. ”
Let's take the stairs down to the first floor and take a look around the stairs. When we came in, there was a small gap that we had not been able to see properly.
Put your hands in the gap and pull with a weak physical force.
“Hnng!”
When the adult man bent down, there was a gap small enough to barely enter.
Immediately, as I bent into the gap without delay, I saw a narrow staircase through which one person could pass.
“You're shaking worse when you stick close together. Good of you to come. ”
Kaiyan, is something wrong?
While I was using my fake body, Rica asked me as if she couldn't move in place.
“Fortunately, the Countess planned something, and it will be well resolved. More than that…”
More than that…?
“The Countess has something in her possession that reeks of the energy of the Halfmime. ”
What about her?
“I don't know. I have a little idea what that is. ”
If you had any idea... Are you talking about the Baryon Fragment?
“I don't know yet. ”
As my fragments are stored in a special box, she may also be storing them in that way.
So I couldn't tell if it was a fragment or not using my senses.
For now, the only way to be sure is with two eyes.
“I was going to get rid of my worries before I went to Harvest Mime, but that's good. If what she has is the right fragment... ”
7 Fragments entered the Test Subject Iones made by Reflexa.
Three pieces were stolen by his apprentice, the Black Mage, and they fled.
Given that I have two fragments now, maybe that fragment she has will be the last.
It also means that I am the only one who can resurrect the Baryons if I can get the fragments.
Tadak!
“There.”
You arrive in front of the building, feeling the energy of the assassins, and point your hand at it.
It was a fairly old and shabby three-story building, unlike Carsia, which was used by the servants.
