Volume 2 - CH 54
2.54. Evidence and Discovery
It's still night time, but there aren't any street lights outside. The only thing I can count on is the moonlight or the light that sometimes spills out from the house. I can hear loud footsteps in front of me. I'm chasing after Rudd and the Robe guy who are obviously really suspicious. Perhaps the man in the robe is accustomed to this kind of thing, his steps are light and lean. Rudd, on the other hand, may be trying not to make any footsteps sounds, but the soles of his shoes that he wears seem to be stiff and make a clicking noise every time he walks. The sound seems to annoy the robe guy, but he seems unable to say anything because Rudd is from a royal family. Even this guy doesn't want Rudd to come with him.. But ... what on earth are they planning? It's unnatural that the royal family goes out in the middle of the night, so I understand that they are going to do something suspicious ... The man in Robe seems to be accustomed to walk in the night, and probably a person who is good at assassination and information gathering like Uchikage. I don’t really like their faces. When I followed them, I arrived at a single house. It's an ordinary single-family size home that you can find everywhere, and there is nothing particularly noticeable thing in there. It's really normal. However, because the curtain is hung from inside the house, you cannot see the inside at all. The two go inside the house. After checking that there wasn’t any person around, he slowly closed the door so as not to make a noise. I want to invade that house immediately, but it would be dangerous to go from the front. I decided to invade from somewhere that is hard to find. As I went around the house, I found an opened window. The place is upstairs, but that doesn't matter to me. I floated myself in the water with [Infinite Water Manipulation] and went inside. If I put a little MP and raise the water cushion, I can stay in the water. Just move the water and bring my body to the opened window. I could easily enter the house through the window. The room I entered was like a bedroom. But the room itself is dark but the beds and desks are dusty. It seems that it has not been used for a long time. For the time being, I spread the [Haze Manipulation] to see the floor plan from this room to find where the robed man and Rudd are. They seem to be in the largest room in the house, sitting face to face and discussing something. But next to them was another person. The silhouette was like a child, leaning deeply on a chair and sleeping. I can't hear their conversation from here, and I can't see the child’s face, so I'll approach them. I don't think they'll notice me because I’m activated the [Assassination] skill, but I must be careful and suppress my footsteps as much as Ican and go down the stairs. Well, I’m a snake, so I don’t have any footsteps in the first place. I felt that the stairs were full of dust and my body got dirty, probably because the stairs weren't used that much. It doesn't feel very good. When I got off while getting my body dirty, I found that only one room was lit. Apparently they're talking about something in that room. I approach the room and thrust only my head into the room. At last, I was able to confirm the physiognomy of the other person and the appearance of the child. The man in the robe sat in a chair and listened firmly to Rudd's story. Her face is thin and she has gentle eyes. However, behind her eyes was a sharp eye that seemed to determine something. And the sleeping girl. I feel that her face looks like someone I know. She wore red-based clothes that were just like the children in the city wore, and she had two things like a Misanga(string bracelet) on her right hand. However, the only thing that is looking good is the clothes, and there are many scratches and bruises that do not suit the body of the little girl. It's painful just looking at it. The two ignore the girl and talk all the time. Now it seems that the man in the robe is reporting to Rudd "... That's ... it's a surprisingly bad situation. It seems that Gilnia is aware of the existence of slave traders and is arresting slave traders who are going to slave hunting" "They do their thing too flashy ... It wouldn't be like this if they followed what I said." "Anyway ... unless Rudd makes a complaint to the slave traders, the slave traders will not stop hunting slaves. It's okay at that time, so why not tell them what to do next? Then there will be no slave traders in collusion, right? " "Hmm, that's right. I’ll do that ... Then I'll leave the arrangements to you." "Leave it to me, I’ll do the arrangement tomorrow." I was skeptical that the word slave trader came out of the mouth of the royal family, Rudd. Besides, the man in this robe seems to beware of Gilnia. Well, if he were acting so prominently, he would be exposed to it. But they can arrange their activities in the dark. So it doesn't matter whether they found out or not. And there was one sentence that I couldn't miss the most. It's the word "collusion with the slave trader." Is the royal family were colluding with slave traders behind the scene to hunt slaves ...? However, assuming that, Asure tried to stop the king, but in the end, the people were the ones who were told to attack him. He wasn't fooled in the first place, so there's no reason not to start another war now. What do these guys think of people ... I'd like to hit them right away, but I can't help but get rid of the information. Let's keep quiet here and concentrate on getting as much information as possible. "So what happened to this kid?" The man in the robe asked Rudd, looking at the girl who was full of wounds. Rudd also saw the girl for a moment, but immediately turned to the man in the robe and answered. "It's a tool to use in war." "Sure ... was it the daughter of a lord somewhere? Why is it already full of wounds ...? If the fact that the lord's daughter is enslaved is revealed, this is also dangerous, so I will protect it. I've kept it ... " "That's fine. The lord over there must have had two daughters, one in Garrot, the other in the Kingdom of Salettana, and the other who is in the Kingdom of Salettana, who should be working as slaves." "... That means ... you're going to start a war by slamming the fact that you're enslaving the lord's daughter, right?" Rudd nodded slowly and satisfactorily. "Then there will be a war and you will have more slaves, and you may also have the Kingdom of Salettana. I feel bad for Azbal-sama, but ... let me take advantage of the fact that he's dead. And to wage war, It means having Alena and Satella play a role. " Ah! ?? What did you say now! Alena and Satella! ?? No way ... is that girl full of scratches is Satella ...? The lord they say is the father of Alena and Satella ... is a king? I think Alena was talking like her father and the lord were a different person ... Hmm? I don't even know that. Ah! I just realized that she looks like someone I recognize! This girl looks like Alena! I hadn't seen her for a while, so I completely forgot ... For the time being, this girl seems to be Satella. Alright, let's help Satella when these bastards go out. I don't know how much I can do because I'm in a separate body now, but if I concentrate, I'll be able to do something about it. But ... the royal family and the slave traders are colluding to hunt slaves. He also said that he would use Alena and Satella to start a war ... what does that mean? "For the time being, can you tell me the scenario that Rudd-sama is thinking about?" "Okay. The first step was to kill Azbal-sama. Sed Alena to the Kingdom of Salettana. Satella to the Kingdom of Garrot. So far, as the scenario. Alena should be working as a slave in the Kingdom of Salettana. No doubt ... no one knows that she was the daughter of Azbal-sama so we accuse them, "What does it mean to enslave the daughter of Azbal-sama?" .. At the same time, spread the rumor that said it was the slave traders of the Kingdom of Salettana who attacked the land under the control of the Azbal-sama. I feel bad for the slave traders of the Kingdom of Salettana, but let's sacrifice them for our benefit. " “………… I see. I understand.” It turns out that enslaving the lord's daughter is a pretty bad thing. Perhaps every country knows that the village where Alena lived was attacked by something. However, the criminal has not been caught yet ... Rudd is trying to rub all of that into the Kingdom of Salettana. And bring it to war. What a bullcrap! Assuming that Azbal is the father of Alena and Satella ... that he knows that Azbal is not the lord who served the Kingdom of Garrot! It’s because of this bastard...! Is it possible to start a war with such a thing ...? No, I wonder if he really intended to wage a war. It seems that he really wants to start a war and secure slaves. These guys are nastier than the pile of garbage. If this happens, I'll help Satella and Alena on my own. It was the correct answer to come to help Satella first. I think I can go to help Alena after all of this is over. I'm sorry Alena. It looks like it will take some time to get there. The man in the robe left the room with Satella in his arms. The secret meeting seemed to end at the same time, and Rudd left the house with a rattling footstep. I follow the man in the robe. When the man in the robe entered one room, he laid Satella on a bed in a clean room. Gently put a cloth on her, stroke her head twice, then stand up and leave the room. I heard the sound of opening the door from a distance. Apparently he has gone out of the house. Well ... I was thinking about how to help Satella from now on, and a piece of paper fell near me.
It's still night time, but there aren't any street lights outside. The only thing I can count on is the moonlight or the light that sometimes spills out from the house.
