Chapter 124 – Who sent this new X in!?

Chapter 122

“Hey, Maxbell! You were supposed to be the guard today. What are you doing?”

“Hey, are you going to bed today?”

From noble mtl dot com.

A tavern in a back alley in Bonaparte City. It looked like an ordinary pub from the outside, but this place was a place where an organization made their hideout.

It’s normal that customers shouldn’t come to a bar in a remote alley like this, but customers never stopped coming to this bar.

An old gentleman talked to Maxbell, who was in charge of guarding the bar. It was an old gentleman with a round stomach and a monocle.

Mexbel recognized him and bowed her head respectfully.

“Hey, how is the water today?”

“The water is very good today, sir. Only very healthy ones were caught.”

“Oh, is that so?”

The pot-bellied old gentleman raised his monocle and talked.

“I look forward to that. Can I wait here today?”

“Yes, just wait a little bit. It will be ready soon.”

The old gentleman nodded happily and entered the tavern. The old gentleman entered, and Maxbell muttered to himself.

“I’m here to buy that pig again. If you look closely, these guys don’t really look like people. Thanks to that, we make a living, but…”

Mex Bell, who was muttering to himself, raised his head again at the sound of footsteps in front of him. And Maxbell made a puzzled expression.

‘…What, what is it?’

Her black-haired woman in her splendid dress and her swordsman, who seemed to be protecting her, appeared together. If there was anything unusual, she was that the woman was wearing her mask.

‘…Are you a noble lady who has gone astray?’

I judged that way after seeing the fancy clothes. Mex Bell once looked at her and bowed her head. Because he, a commoner, would look strange if he didn’t greet the nobles.

The aristocratic lady approached Maxbell as he said hello and asked him quietly.

“Is this… A place where things are handled?”

“…Yes?”

Were you an invited guest? But, as Mex Bell remembers, she had not heard her message that such a gorgeous woman would come.

“…Miss, if you have received an invitation from us, could you show me the invitation to the auction?”

“Oh, is that necessary?”

“Yes?”

Aren’t you a guest?

But she was obviously referring to this woman, the ‘thing’. Then she must have known something…

“Can uninvited people enter?”

“…I don’t know how you came to know about it, but I don’t think it will work today. Sorry.”

“Really?”

Then the noble lady took something out of the thick sleeve of her dress.

“Can’t we do this?”

“…!”

When Max Bell saw the card the woman handed her, she was startled. And Max Bell said politely, bowing her back at her 90 degrees.

“Sir, sorry! I don’t know a precious person, so I’ll see you!”

“…It’s okay. I came because my father told me to go.”

“Oh, that’s right. Hurry up and eat inside, Princess.”

Seeing Max Bell’s sudden change of attitude, her noblewoman, Princess Elena Bathory according to her identity card, grinned.

“Yes. I’m glad I didn’t get knocked out at the door.”

“Go, if I had known you were a princess, I would have served you wholeheartedly from the beginning. She wished she had shown her identity plaque from the start….”

“My father looks after me a lot.”

“I don’t know the details either, but I do know that the duke is very helpful to us.”

“…Really?”

Princess Elena nodded her head and went inside. And when the prosecutor, who seemed to be her escort driver, also tried to enter, she said Max Bell in a slightly troubled tone.

“Uh, wait…No one wearing a weapon is allowed in.”

“…My escort driver? It’s an escort knight that my father gave me… But can’t I?”

“Ah…”

After thinking about what to do with Max Bell, she finally nodded her head when she was told that she was a knight given to her by the duke.

“No, go in. It seems that the duke cares for the princess a lot.”

“…That’s kind of it.”

The princess answered briefly and went inside her tavern. Her escort knight followed suit and entered.

Anyway, gray hair is a bit unusual. He’s holding a really big sword… It seems he’s quite talented.

“…I also want to escort the children of nobles. You’ll get a lot of money, and if you do well, you might end up with the lady you’re serving…I’m envious.”

“So envious?”

“!?”

I don’t know when it came out again, but the escort knight was outside. Maxbell looked at him and smiled awkwardly.

“Oh, no. I was being rude and talking to myself for no reason…”

“…I came because I wanted to ask you something. The lady said she was curious.”

“Ah, feel free to say it.”

“Who is in charge here?”

“Yes?”

Why are you asking that all of a sudden? However, since she was a princess, the daughter of a duke, she thought that perhaps she might have brought a message from the duke.

“This is Yurubaha. He is much taller than me, bald-headed, and has these patterns tattooed on his right shoulder.”

While saying that, Maxbell showed me the black scorpion pattern on the back of my hand. The escort knight, who had been looking at it for a while, spoke quietly.

“…Yes. Thanks for letting me know.”

The escort knight went back into the tavern, and Maxbell looked at the front again. He didn’t talk to himself this time. I’m afraid that another guest will come out while muttering to myself again.

“What… What!? Now wait…!”

“Oops! Who sent this bastard in!?”

But why? I didn’t even talk to myself, so why do I hear voices?

“Maxbell!! What the hell have you done!!!!”

“…Yes? Why are you doing that!?”

Mexbell hurriedly opened the shop.

Wow! Bang!

Something breaks and cracks are heard. And there’s the sound of metal scraping the floor.

“…A sword?”

And the only person making a mess in the bar. His comrades passed out nearby, and Yurbaha, the person in charge of this place, was caught in the hands of a man.

Mex Bell looked at the man with her eyes wide open. A man with white hair and red eyes. It was Princess Elena’s escort knight whom Maxbell had identified and sent in a while ago.

“…Princess, why…?”

#

They put such a foolish kid in front of them. That guy still doesn’t seem to understand the situation.

Seeing that Estelle is still addressing Estelle as a princess, it seems that she is not aware of it. I answered him

“Thanks to you, I caught it comfortably. You guys are going to tie it up with the change magic stone gun and put it all in, so just stay there? Just in case, you might be able to make some allowances for information.”

“Abel, make me pass out.”

“…Yes.”

I stunned the person in charge of this place, Yurubahara, with the back of a sword, and set out to subdue that foolish guy who avoided work outside.

“…You tricked me?”

“You guys live on people’s backs too. Are you feeling bad?”

“…Don’t let me go.”

The guy pulled out a dagger from his waist. Even two of them. Looking at that reminds me of someone.

“A dagger…”

I felt it before, but I think it’s really stupid to take out a dagger against a greatsword.

The guy immediately grabbed the dagger and charged. I swung my sword down the back of his sword just in time for the man to come.

Hooung!

“!”

“Abel!”

“Die, you bastard!!”

His body disappeared for an instant, then he suddenly appeared above my head. What, how?

Anyway, it was a crisis. I just swung my sword down. Naturally, it took time to lift the sword again.

But the man’s dagger is aiming at the top of my head and is being cut down. How should….

But my body moved a step faster than I thought. Before I could even think of a countermeasure, my body reacted on its own.

“How can I do this…!”

With a movement almost driven by instinct, I twisted to avoid the dagger and grabbed the man’s arm with my empty hand. And just like that, he beat the man to the floor.

Quaang!!

The man was slammed, and passed out instantly from the impact. Estelle looked at me from behind with a slightly surprised expression, then smiled and talked to me.

“…What is it, Abel~♡ I thought I was being fooled, but you are quick to deal with it♡”

“…I will. I was surprised too. My body moved before I thought.”

“You do it quite well~♡ I can feel that poor Abel has become so strong♡”

“hahahaha…But how did it suddenly appear on top of me?”

Estelle looked at the fallen guy’s dagger and nodded her head knowingly.

“This dagger is an ‘enchanted weapon’ made using alchemy and magic. I think he engraved a magic to move briefly and alchemy to use it permanently.”

“…Is there such a thing?”

“Of course, it is very expensive. It’s not a weapon that a low-level gang member would normally have… The duke must have looked after them a lot.”

…The Duke’s involvement here is almost certain. Like the fact that he let me in as soon as I mentioned Elena’s name.

I said looking at the guys scattered around.

“What do these guys do now?”

“You have to tie it up. And those who came as guests over there should be grouped separately.”

“Something that can be used as a rope…”

Fortunately, there were many. Perhaps because this was a place where slaves were bought and sold, plenty of ropes were prepared. I said after tying up all the fainted guys.

“Whoa, but I can’t see the slaves.”

“You should ask this person here now.”

Estelle said that and touched her smooth, shaved head. Yurbaha. He was the guy in charge of this place.

I squatted down in front of Yurbaha and slapped him on the cheek.

“Hey, wake up.”

“…….”

“Wake up, I know it happened. Do you want to die?”

“…Sheesh.”

The sound of breathing has changed, but pretending to pass out.

“How the hell did you know! The duke could never betray us…”

“Didn’t you hear that all the guys who were distributing metamorphic stones in Athens were wiped out? Is this your organisation?”

“…What?”

Yurbaha blinked his eyes and carefully examined me. Then she cried out in surprise to herself.

“Yo, Hero Abel!?”

… Now you’re recognizing these guys. I might have become a bit famous.

“Where are all the people you captured?”

“…I don’t know.”

“If the person in charge doesn’t know, who knows. Do you keep lying? Do you want to go back?”

“Ah! I do not know! If you’re going to kill me, kill me!!!”

How do I know that I can’t kill him?

“Really?”

《Holy Blade》

Hook.

“Uh…Keah!!!?”

The sword of pure white light pierced Yurbaha’s shoulder neatly. Suddenly, blood splattered and I looked away while wiping the blood off my face.

“…Estel?”

“Why?”

“Can I do this?”

You’re still a saint. However, Estelle said firmly.

“Because I am not an idealist. I don’t think that the wicked should be saved in the same way.”

“…Are there any problems?”

“Yes. Rather, the Goddess is the one who said that evil should be punished.”

…It’s hot, maybe because it’s the goddess of the sun.

From noble mtl dot com.

“I saw it. I could really kill you if you don’t answer right. Do you want to be punished or die here.”

“Ahhhhh… If you get caught, you’re going to die anyway!”

“Ah, the death penalty is that easy…”

…No, since this is the Middle Ages, do you feel comfortable with the death penalty?

“…If you do something wrong, you should be punished.”

“Kkeuh, if that’s the case, I’d rather die without saying anything!”

“Then die.”

“Wait a minute, Estelle.”

She said while trying to stop Estelle from using her s*xual skills again.

“I have to get information from him. What if I kill you?”

“…I don’t like the brusque talk back.”

…But that’s true.

“Yurbaha. Still, there are many ways to die.”

“What?”

“The death penalty. Do you want to die cleanly with your throat cut, or do you want to die with your limbs torn to shreds?”

“What are you talking about? Where is such a terrible execution method…”

“Is there? Or the death penalty, where the skin is slowly peeled off and you are killed slowly, or the method where you are locked up in a wooden box with nails driven into it…”

Actually, of course I don’t know what the death penalty method is in the Kingdom of Vesta. I just listed the horrible old execution methods I knew. I think it might instill fear.

Then Yurbaha’s body trembled.

“There is a saying that it is better to die gracefully. When you go, do you want to go cleanly and without pain, or do you want to go through a terrible and painful time?”

“…….”

“If you provide the information, I will help you to make allowances for that much. How is it?”

#

We went out on the back road that Yurbaha had pointed out, and at one point we groped along the road. And one of the stones on the floor felt different, so I pressed it hard, and there was a gurgling sound, revealing a hidden staircase.

“You did a good job of making this.”

“…Was it shaped like a black scorpion?”

“Yes?”

“Here are the patterns engraved on the members of the organization.”

Isn’t it?

“Why is that?”

“…No. I want to remember it for now.”

Seeing that there are also Bonaparte cities, these guys… It seems that they are an organization operating secretly in various countries. The world is full of confusion because of demon kings and demons, but it seems that monarchs are not the only ones who are under a lot of stress when even these guys go wild.

“Shall we go down first?”

“Wait a minute before that.”

Estelle gently touched me. And she gave her blessing.

《 Solaria’s Blessing 》

What a blessing?

“Because you never know what to expect. But since humans are the opponents, not monsters, I don’t think Abel will be defeated…”

Estel said with a smile.

“Because you don’t know what mistakes the stupid hero will make again~♡”

“…Heh heh.”

I’m not stupid.

Estelle lifted her mask back and held out her hand to me.

“Then escort me again, knight♡”

I answered, holding the hand that was wearing a long glove like that of her aristocratic lady.

“I will, Miss Estelle.”
