EP. 47 -Butler retaliation
The Libra Shokai Headquarters, which exists in a prime location facing the main street of the royal capital.
Detrihigs guided to the top floor of buildings, such as merchants who handle various items from all over the country, and the aristocrats who seek it, and the Detrihids, who were guided to the reception room there were facing the main cellpan of the trade meeting.
“I was really saved. I was wondering what to do.
“No, it's a job to prepare what you want, so this is natural.”
While looking sideways at the side of the business negotiations, the leading role, Luke, is currently smiling, Dietrich will inspect the products prepared on the table in front of you.
All are lined up are valuable magical tools that can only be obtained in the empire, but all of them are distributed in the private sector.
Honestly, if Dietrich turns his hand, it's easy to order without relying on such a shrine.
The purpose of this time is not the product itself, but the man in front of you.
For that reason, I gave such an expensive product, but apparently it went well.
Selipan, the chairman of the merchant, seems to recognize this as a customer, and business negotiations with Luke are proceeding smoothly.
In the first place, the other day, the other day, it was a trigger from the other day that the leading technician of the empire was secretly connected to this trade meeting.
Just because he is the leading engineer, he has all the information, from the structure of military magic tools in the empire to its effects and weaknesses.
If he or she is shed, there is a risk of military balance between the two countries.
That's why Dietrich is coming to the investigation in this way.
(I was in trouble with him at all)
Dietrich smiles bitterly while thinking about a subordinate man.
The talent who invented a number of magic tools is wonderful, but he should be the shortcomings of the genius, or he has no choice but to choose the means for his invention.
That's why Dietrich, who found his talent, provided his best environment, and even though he had prepared the position of the leading mage of the Empire, he bothered to connect with other countries.
Nevertheless, honestly, Dietrich is not as worried about this matter as the home country says.
Certainly he does not choose the means, but it is not stupid enough to abandon it because there is no environment where the magic tools can be researched more than the current empire.
Rather, Dietrich is worried about the reason he let him do that.
“What is the actual sales of magic tools in this country?”
“Thanks to you, the magical tools for the commoners are steadily increasing sales. Magic -style lamps are sold out every time they are purchased.”
Even now, Luke gradually explores while pretending to be a public story.
Since the long -lasting hostility has been improved and exchanges between the two countries have been interacted, the kingdom has provided resources such as food, and it is the high magic technology that the empire has issued it.
No matter how many magical power in the kingdom, not all of the people are entrusted with their benefits.
Especially in regions where the number is small, the demand for magic tools that anyone can handle is high.
“Do you not buy nobles?”
“It's really difficult. Certainly, magic tools are useful, but they have a lot of magical power, and they are not necessary for them, who are excellent knights and magicians… But I can't say so loud, but the higher the aristocracy is particularly disgusted with the magic tools.”
However, it is a story limited to common people.
As Selpan says, the nobles who have their own magical power will not need a magical device that is just an alternative.
And since the magic tools are originally a tool for killing the Kingdom nobleman, such a reaction is unknown.
“Huh… But did you have my friend's butler?”
What I recall is the black -haired butler who is also a friend of Dietrich.
He is a servant of the Duke, but he had an excessive amount of magic tools that could be said to be light.
If you think about it, it's a weird story that just the butler is armed so much, taking into account the fact that he is a commoner.
“Are you a friend…”
Selpan, who had been talking to Luke until then, responded to the words he muttered.
Although he was still smiling on the surface, Dietrich's observing eyes captured the upset.
Perhaps they understand who they say, as the number of people who use magic tools in the aristocratic society is limited.
Even so, this reaction is a bit surprising.
Dietrich knows that Crow is so good enough to be served as a duke, but I don't think the man in front of him responds that much.
Or is there something you don't know about him yet?
“Maybe it's…”
“Chairman, what you want to hear as soon as possible!”
When Selpan tries to say something, a man like his subordinates breathes and enters the room.
“What is noisy, it's an important business negotiation right now?”
“However, the chairman said that this matter should give priority to anything.”
“… What are you? I'm a little rude. Report.”
“Then…”
“…!?”
When a subordinate man reported to the hearts of Detori Hi, who watched the situation, the cellpan always opened his narrow eyes and expressed his astonished expression.
Apparently, a lot of things happened.
“I'm sorry, I'm sorry to have a problem as soon as possible, so I'm rude here. I'll leave it to my subordinates.”
“Such a mess!”
Selpan, who gave some instructions in the arrow to support such expectations, stood up and bowed down to Detri Hi.
However, it is not accumulated for this left unattended.
Luke is angry, but the Selpan with a serious impatient.
“No, it's okay. We've received the product, so we're rude here.”
“I'm sorry, we look forward to your coming again. Well, please guide you to the exit.”
This seems to be a really bad situation.
After confirming that, Dietrich stops the angry Luke and leaves the business meeting quietly while dragging him.
At the time of leaving, the appearance of the cellpan with a relieved look was impressive.
“Luke, can you check their movements?”
As soon as he left the building of the Shokai, Dietrich, who turned his warm smile and became a politician because he was cold, asked the underneath.
“Are you still worried?”
“Oh, it's better not to worry about the chairman that the chairman gives priority over important customers.”
Luke calmly asks such Lord to stop his anger.
Thanks for the excellent existence of the subordinate who understands this thought, Dietrich thinks about the problem that seems to be currently happening.
It is impossible to say that the Libra Shokai, which has a great influence on the nobles and the royal family, has said that the chairman, Selpan, should give priority to anything.
── This is just an intuition, but it will surely be interesting.
“Let's make arrangements like that.”
“I left it”
Dietrich smiled on his expectations, with Luke, who began to contact other subordinates.
◇ ◆ ◇ ◆
At that time, the members of Behive, one of the three major organizations dominating the slums, were in a hurry for the operation.
“What's going on?”
“Yes, the formation is now completed to the third unit and the fourth and fifth units are in the final adjustment. Supplies are also deployed sequentially including magic tools provided by Uroboros, so all preparations will be completed in about two hours.”
“Yes, I'm just as hot as possible. I'll put a piece at once before I am reluctant to be moving.”
“Yes”
Regina, Bee Hive's boss, asks the secretary on the side while skipping instructions in the office.
A crime group that is making a kingy -rich woman with a magical power, and his hideout is the three major tissues of the same slum as Behive, and the Serpan led Uroboros grabbed.
In response to the provision of the information, he developed a joint operation between Behive and Uroboros.
With the backup of the Uroboros side such as resources and information, Behive destroys his goals as an actual unit.
Now we are in the middle of preparation for the strategy.
“… Yes, I understand. Mother, it's an urgent contact from monitoring.”
In the meantime, it is informed that the communication crystal placed in the room responded and contacted.
“Chit… I'm lending. I was a problem?”
“Sister, there was a strange group near their hideout.”
When Regina receives the crystal from the secretary, a dull man is reflected there.
The monitored man immediately reported, but his expression was confused.
“What's strange… What?”
“Anyway, I'll show you now, so please judge there.”
“… Maid?”
The man shows his goal when the image is turned around for a moment, or when the image turns around for a moment.
The girls wearing maid clothes, which were a little far away due to the monitoring of the building, but were descending one after another from several carriages stopped in dimensions.
“Fucking, the nobles have already moved. It's annoying… Or why is it a maid? Isn't it a normal knight?”
They are unusual in slums, but they are easy to understand.
Most of the time, some aristocrats who have been damaged in this case have sent them out for retaliation.
I don't know why the staff is a maid…
“Should I move before the credit is taken over there…”
Anyway, I understand the situation.
They may have circumstances, but I can't just look silently here.
As long as you are suffering a lot of damage, you will not be able to retaliate unless you retaliate.
I just want to avoid the situation where I can keep my hand and bring all my credit, but I don't want to be able to compete with the aristocratic family.
It was a worried Regina, but it was hardened by one maid with gray hair reflected in the crystal.
“That's… No. 1?”
There is no doubt, that is a girl who once left himself.
It is the illusion that it is a hallucination that is completely different from five years ago, but it must be a girl she once wanted in the video in front of her.
“Hey!?”
The moment she recognized her, following her, she recognized the figure of the person who came out of her carriage, and Standed up immediately defeating her chair.
A rare black butler in this country.
It is clear that they follow them because the maids were all at once.
And a girl with ash hair who refrain from snuggling next to it.
Anyone who was in a slum ten years ago, such as who was the same conditions, would know who was in the same conditions.
Regina was staring at the video so that she was biting to check her appearance, but over the crystal, the moment when her (No. 1) emerald's eyes and gaze collided, the video was cut off.
“Fucking, I was killed! Anno's snake guy! I knew this from the beginning and kept silent!”
Throw the crystal that no longer displays the video, and Regina barks.
What I remember is a conversation with the previous cellpan.
If you have a deep connection with the aristocratic society, you will hear information about black -haired butler immediately.
No, in light of the information that the information has not been flowing at all, it is possible that he was controlling the information himself.
“Don't put those who can move right now!”
“Oh, mom? But I'm still ready…”
“I have no time to make such a tough time! I'm so urgent, I'm out too!”
She was a secretary who was confused by her suddenly angry mother, but now she's regrettable.
Regina forced the root of the neck, kicking the door and leaving the hometown.
◇ ◆ ◇ ◆
“Crow -sama, I captured the person who was monitoring this. How can I do it?”
In front of me getting off the carriage, Ains drags a fainted man from his shadow.
At first glance, it can only be seen by ordinary slums who are dressed up, but that's what she says.
“Are you friends?”
“No, it's probably another organization. The original monitoring target was the same as us.”
“Then leave it alone. You can ignore anything other than your goals.”
“I got it”
In response to my instructions, Ains throws the body of the man who has grabbed beside the alley.
After all, the enemy seems to be buying a grudge besides us.
It would be better to make a piece before being disturbed.
“Is that okay with your hideout?”
“Oh, oh… No doubt”
“Then, do you know the rest?”
“…”
When the man who was the leader of the attacker brought, ask the target enemy hideout, and pushed his back in advance and headed alone in front of the building.
“Hey, that's…”
“Oh, I'm back now”
There are two guards in front of the building.
A leader man lightly talks to the two who notice and be alert to us approaching us.
“Where have you ever been?”
“I have a report about that, let me meet the boss.”
“What is the man behind?”
“Oh, I'm a customer who wants to trade with us.”
The negotiations with security were better than I expected, as if I was a leader in the attack unit and had a reasonable position in the organization.
The vigilance is also resolved, and if you meet the other boss as it is, it will be less troublesome.
“Where did others go in the first place?”
“That is…”
But things don't seem to be so good.
When asked about his friends, he realized that he was aware of the fact that he had not been deceived without deceiving it.
“Temee… We sold us!”
“Well, no! I have no betrayal, believe me!”
The leader man desperately tries to persuade the security men who have pulled out the sword, but it would be impossible to do this.
“The boss to judge it is the boss. Well, the back of the back is quiet…?”
“I didn't expect much from the beginning, but it's enough to just know that there is a boss here.”
“Temeh! Abe!?”
Pull out the knife from the waist, approach one of the security, and bounce off the neck.
Another, who was furiously attacked by the killing of his friends, was killed by his head blown away by a magic bullet that flew from behind.
There is no longer a small worker, as there is a risk that the human beings have heard of the current screams.
Enter from the front and annihilate.
“Thank you for your hard work, it's okay.”
“Ah, oh… Was this allowed? So I'm this…”
Before that, only one person looks at the remaining leader man.
A man was killed in front of him, and he was a man who was sitting, but tried to leave with a relief expression in my words.
“… Where are you going?”
── So I stopped it.
“Fart…?”
“Isn't your cleanup yet?”
If you put a knife so that you can easily understand the man who is not understood the situation, he will finally understand his position or dye his face blue.
“Oh, hey! It's okay now!”
“Yeah, so you're already used.”
“Well, wait! I was bad! Yes, I'm going to be your subordinate! I'll help you! So… So…!”
The man desperately begins to beg, to understand that I'm serious.
Even if you show it unusual, nothing will resonate with my heart, which was dominated by passion.
Yes, I'm uncomfortable just to live.
“──It's no use of the fool who turned the blade to the young lady?”
“Hi…!”
More than that, I deny all of this man who turned the blade to the young lady, and killed me only by killing it.
No, this guy's death is not enough.
I have to destroy everything hostile to the young lady.
“Uh, uhhhhh!”
“Chi…”
“Ga!?”
Whether he knew he was no longer help, a man went while shouting.
If you hit the frustrated kick in the stomach full of gaps, the man's body will blow off, break through the door and rush into the enemy's hideout.
In the building, the men who were drinking alcohol were surprised at the suddenly rushing in their eyes.
“” Explosion “”
“Ahhhhh!”
Before the enemy recovered from the confusion, I held my hand and cast the key words.
A magical tool embedded in a man's body is activated under the order, activating the engraved operative.
The energy quickly swelled from the inside of a man, and blown off the whole building with the roaring sound.
“Struggle”
The dust wounded by the explosion is blown off by the magic of the wind and the visibility is clear, and at the same time, the barrier that protects me from the blast is released as a magical light.
If you step inside from the entrance of the building, you will not see anything moving inside.
However, you can still hear the sound that moves in a hurry from the other floors.
After confirming that, I distorted my mouth and turned back to the subordinates behind.
“It's an order ──
── Kill, destroy, violate it
“””I got it”””
The maids who received the order and started acting on each.
After that, I stepped slowly.
