I Became the Demon Grand Duke in the Academy

80 – Grand Duke Aka – 80

We couldn’t do the interrogation while moving, so we decided to stay here for a while.

If Sleipnir ran with all his might, he would reach the imperial castle in no time, so he wasn’t planning to make it past the day.

So, as I was about to begin the interrogation, Raphael, whose face was covered in fury, grinned and said to me,

“I’ll do it. Can I?”

“… … yes.”

Raphael was furious that the assassins were targeting Priscilla.

Like that, did you spend about 10 minutes in the carriage? Raphael, whose expression was much fresher than the first time, called me.

“Those who are afraid to open their mouths open, but there is no information to come up with. That’s why I keep trying to be the captain… … Does this bastard never open his mouth?”

Raphael, the leader of the assassins, raises his hair and shows it to me.

At this, the assassin grinned.

“Did you not speak? Stupid little angel… … .”

It seems that he really opened his mouth and didn’t reveal any information.

… … Does that mean he won’t blow until the end, even though he’s the boss?

I sighed.

“Let me follow you first, I will try.”

“under! Even if you say that, I have no information to tell you!”

“Okay, I hope that decision lasts for a long time.”

First of all, I moved a little further away so as not to harm the children resting in the wagon, and told Raphael that it was okay to let go of him.

“really? Are you going to run away right away?”

“Good. If you reversed your joints one by one every time you ran away, wouldn’t you give up on your own? If you think you can run away, try it.”

I say that and transform into wheel form.

“You can let go.”

At my words, Raphael slowly let go of the assassin’s head.

“Profit!”

And as if he had waited, he quickly started running towards the forest.

“Stupid bastards! You really me———”

[(Skill: Explosive Speed) is activated.]

[(Skill: Spread Wings) is activated.]

“──Gregory Karpkick.”

From the start, the guy’s right leg starts to bend in the opposite direction.

“Ahhhhh !!!”

No matter how fast he is, he can never beat me in terms of instantaneous speed.

“Now, if you think you can get away with your remaining leg, try it.”

“No go! I’m not going!!”

“… … Too bad. Now, let’s start lightly first.”

In the end, the assassin gave up running away and turned around and looked in my direction.

I don’t feel the emotion of fear in the expression of the guy looking at me.

“Looks like you received some training or something. So that I can overcome any fear.”

“… … .”

He remains silent at my question. That’s right, if you become the leader of the Assassins, you should be able to do this.

[(Skill: Black Swamp) is activated.]

Immediately activates the Black Swamp and covers everything except the guy’s face.

Even though I just ordered the cockroaches to gnaw away at his body bit by bit, he only screamed with his expression distorted. No information has been released yet.

“Did you receive training to prepare for pain?”

“Shut up… … ! okay! It’s itchy there, so bite more! Shuuu!”

It seems impossible to open his mouth even with pain.

I roughly expected that I had overcome Raphael’s interrogation, but I didn’t know how to endure this far.

Then, all that remains is the psychological fall.

I already hate to write this here… … .

With that thought in mind, I pulled out a black bead that looked like a ball of smoke.

“Gregory, is that?”

Raphael was interested in the appearance of an object he had never seen before.

This, too, was purchased separately from ‘Ghaul’s Everything Store’, and was called the [Orb of Horror] in the game.

“An object that increases fear.”

As expected, the strongest assistant is not a drug assistant.

I slowly approached him and reached for the marble in his mouth.

Then, the guy who kept his mouth shut and held on with his teeth.

It seemed that he himself realized that this object was dangerous.

Anyway, it was already too late.

“Raphael? He won’t open his mouth, so I’d like a little help.”

“okay?”

After saying that, Raphael immediately ran over and slammed his fist into the man’s throat with all his might. At the same time, its teeth fluttered and a space was created.

“thanks.”

Then I quickly put the marbles in his mouth and used the wheels to chew and spit the marbles out of his mouth.

The entire process took 2 minutes.

Slowly, very slowly, the guy’s expression starts to loosen little by little.

It was proof that the drug was working.

“Keugh! aaa!!!”

And, the guy’s expression starts to distort.

“Oh no!!! Stop it you crazy bastards!!!”

Unlike before, I slowly approach the guy struggling desperately from the black swamp and thrust his face into it.

“If you want me to stop, let’s talk. Who ordered you guys to target Priscilla?”

“I don’t know! I don’t know!!! So Jebaaal… … Please clean this up!!!”

Do you still have the strength to lie?

Instead of answering, I covered his face with black swamp.

Wheels starting to go into every hole in his body.

The assassin was screaming, keeping his mouth shut for fear of getting a wheel into his throat if he screamed.

“Wow, this is really… … . Gregory, I would rather bite my tongue and die than be interrogated by you.”

Raphael looked at me with an exasperated expression and said so.

But what about this

“I knew that, and I already stuffed my familiars in my mouth. It is impossible to commit suicide by biting your tongue.”

“… … devil.”

“Did you forget? I am the original devil.”

And I didn’t feel much regret or fear, perhaps because of the nature of this body.

It just makes me a little angry that they targeted my group.

After the 3-minute tour of the Black Swamp, take the wheels off the guy’s body again.

“Now, since you did the healing spa, you must have remembered something, right? give me another chance Who commissioned you guys?”

An assassin who constantly spews black lumps out of his mouth.

He looks at me with tears welling up in his eyes as if he had succeeded in spitting out most of what was in his mouth.

“lion… … It was called Lion Society! They gave money for a request in the name of Lions Club! So please… … Please kill me!”

A look of complete horror.

Judging from Raphael not saying anything, it seemed like he wasn’t lying.

“Then, the last question. How can I get to your organization’s headquarters?”

“There is a place called the Red Moon Tavern in District 3 of the Empire! That basement is our headquarters. So please… … Jebaaal… … … !!!”

The assassin turned bright red with blood in his eyes.

Perhaps this was the limit.

“I will do as you wish. Raphael, can I ask you a favor?”

“I was going to ask you anyway. Go in and rest, I’ll clean it up right away.”

“Please.”

After saying that, I transformed and went inside the carriage first and sat down.

Even though [Skill: Black Swamp] was activated in a small space, it was because most of the mana was blown away due to controlling it for quite a long time.

“Gregory, you worked hard. This is what Miss Amel gave me, but it seems to be effective in restoring magical power.”

Rosé smiled and offered me tea. When I asked where he got the tea from, it seemed that Amel had brought it separately.

Amel glanced at me and turned her head away.

“Gwi, for aristocrats, it is basic to take a car on a trip!”

“… Drink well.”

As soon as you take a sip of the tea, something similar to the scent of tangerines spreads in your mouth in an instant.

It felt pretty good as the warm, sweet, moderately bitter tea reached my stomach.

“Is it delicious?”

It seemed that Rosé and Priscilla were also drinking the same tea because they used a lot of mana.

“Yeah, not bad.”

So, after taking the second sip, the carriage door opened.

“All over. Let’s start slowly.”

“yes.”

After answering Raphael’s words, Priscilla tapped the driver’s seat.

Heeing outside! With the sound of Sleipnir crying, the carriage started moving again.

“So, do you know anything about the Lion Society?”

Drinking the tea in my hand, I asked Raphael. Raphael nodded at this.

“No, it’s the name of an organization I’ve never heard of. I think it’s highly likely that it’s a family related to lions… … I think we should investigate properly when we return to the Empire.”

“is it.”

“Lion’s Association? Are the assassins like that?”

Priscilla asked me after hearing the Lion Society.

“Yes, do you know anything?”

“… … no. I’m hearing it for the first time too. Where is their headquarters?”

It was Raphael who answered Priscilla’s question.

“A pub in District 3. I think I’ll have to pack up and investigate once I get to the imperial palace.”

Upon hearing that, Amel exclaimed.

“You managed to gather information from that many assassins in that short amount of time? Great.”

It seemed hard to imagine that they would open their mouths after mixing swords together.

“Human beings cannot even resist in the face of overwhelming fear. Like anyone before.”

“… … It would have been really nice if you hadn’t said the last thing.”

“is it? Excuse me.”

When I tease her slightly, Amel puts on a pouting expression and turns her head toward the window.

It seemed that he still had the trauma of that time.

“I won’t be able to leave right away as soon as I arrive at the imperial palace. I mean, I’ll have to finish the imperial family’s business separately.”

An instructor who gives advice to us exchanging various opinions.

At this, Priscilla smiled as if telling her not to worry.

“I can somehow postpone the call from the imperial family. Rather, it seems that if you figure out the reason behind this incident, you can use it as a good hand. First of all, when we arrive, we will say that we need to rest because we have accumulated travel poison.”

Everyone nods at Priscilla’s suggestion.

“uh! Gregory! I see a huge city over there!”

Suddenly, Rose pointed to the window and shouted.

Huge barriers and gates visible through the windows. Heinbern, the capital of the empire, was beginning to appear.

“Yes, that is the capital of the empire where the imperial family is located. It’s Heinbern.”

The center of the empire, which has been heard several times in the game.

I swallowed at the overwhelming scenery and instinctively realized that a big event had begun.

A bloody political battle finally begins.

Why?

For some reason, I had a hunch that it would be an event where I could drink a lot of honey.
