Episode 100

“I have the medicine ready. I have come to tell you clearly. But you guys said you wouldn’t accept it.”

“well… … .”

“Hey, stop talking bullsh*t? Old butler, do you think there are only one or two guys like you? Even according to the rules of the Alchemy Association, this case is… … .”

“If this request went through the association, it would be so.”

Mr. Carrot’s words come to a halt.

“In any case, this is a contract between your teacher and my family head. It’s not even an official request, so will their duty work?”

“Dog talk… … . hey! kid! Let’s go back!”

There was no point in further conversation. Mr. Carrot, who understood the fact right away, wanted to leave this place.

First we have to get out of here.

That judgment would have been correct.

“I’m sorry, but I’m not too keen on sending it back.”

“Did you hold out if you wanted to be beaten?”

“I want to decline that, so shall we do it like this?”

The butler nodded.

Then, the presences waiting outside the room flood in.

soldiers.

These are the enlisted men of the count family.

“I will cancel the request. I’ll have to get my money back too. … … It’s a pity, but I can’t send you back either.”

“What tricks… … .”

“Unfortunately, our head of the family is reluctant to let the story of the family’s weakness go out.”

In short, silence.

Even if it was resolved, does that mean that we cannot just leave someone who knows the family’s weakness?

“and… … Are you a disciple? So does this boy.”

Oh my gosh, it looks like I’m in the killing club too.

Well, I guess so.

Even if it’s a kid who doesn’t know who it is, since it’s here, I can’t just let it go.

“Unfortunately, I cannot get you both out of here.”

No need to ask what that means.

Tosa Gupaeng.

It’s commonplace in this industry.

In the end, we go to prison side by side.

It was like being quietly imprisoned in a prison prepared in the basement of the Count’s family.

“Bastard! Next time I see you, I’ll throw it in a pot and melt it!”

“Mr. Carrot… … . It’s noisy.”

Your voice is getting louder. The sound is already echoing, so I receive the aftermath.

“hey! You don’t look angry?! What is that inspiration! Putting people in a place like this!”

“Well, that’s what I usually say. You’re useless now, so kick!”

“… … Kid, is this our job?”

know.

Unlike Mr. Carrot, who screamed and struggled in anger, I calmly looked around the inside of the prison and yawned.

“Why are you so calm?”

“I just hit the back of the head and thought that prison is a nobleman. It’s a hundred times better than fighting right on the spot.”

“Did you get caught on purpose?”

It seemed that he cared about me not rebelling strangely.

“I heard that when Mr. Carrot was caught, he was caught obediently.”

“doesn’t care. I’ll throw them all into the furnace later.”

“Then I will help. … … The reason why I was easily caught, but I thought it would be possible to escape, but I wasn’t willing to.”

“What are you talking about… … .”

“Aren’t you a noble anyway? It’s bothersome to throw a punch and then be blamed for a crime you didn’t have.”

“… … Something like that.”

It was only then that Mr. Carrot understood what I was saying.

“Isn’t that suspicious?”

“ok?”

“You say it as if you were sure you wouldn’t be able to bring the medicine in the first place. I urge you on such a subject.”

At my point, Mr. Carrot kept his mouth shut.

It was only later that he realized the discomfort.

“Strange. … … No, if you think about it, why did you come to hasten the request after Master passed away?”

“It’s hard to say for sure, but it’s dubious, dubious.”

“… … Little boy, is your head spinning unexpectedly?”

“It’s not surprising, he’s the only one who can’t believe this. Oh, and there’s a face too.”

“… … .”

It’s an excuse after all.

As I said before, my composure is not just for logical reasons.

Because I know what this quest is.

‘Because it wasn’t a delivery quest in the first place.’

What I got hold of was not ‘for momentum!’, but to carry out the quest as planned.

“First, let’s get out of here.”

“I guess so… … . wait a little bit If it’s like this… … .”

Mr. Carrot seems to have been thinking about what to do with the bars of this prison a little while ago.

Unfortunately, all of my tools and equipment have been confiscated, so I have to do it with my bare hands.

No matter what I wanted to do with magic, the handcuffs I put on were artifacts, so demonic energy didn’t circulate properly.

Even in the game, if you were imprisoned in a prison or something, you couldn’t use magic or skills.

“Ah, if that’s the case, don’t worry. It looks like it has already arrived.”

“what?”

“Did you forget? Mr. Carrot? It’s not just the two of us.”

It wasn’t that I was just leisurely explaining.

I was just waiting.

“Sian, I’ve found what I need~.”

Soon Emily returned.

The reason this guy was quiet the whole time was because he materialized a little while ago and let him wander around.

I can’t use magic, but materializing my familiar is an exception or possible.

that’s f*cking fake

“I found it?”

“Huh, of course. Oh, I also found your luggage. I just threw it away nearby.”

eased the effort

Emily brought our belongings and the key to this grate.

“Whoa, whoa, which bad boy should I take out first?”

“I don’t have time to play. If it’s a prisoner game, let’s postpone it until later.”

“Oh, sorry.”

Giggling, Emily opened the prison bars.

“And I personally would rather be a jailer than a prisoner.”

“… … At least do it out of sight. These rotten things.”

let’s do that

Well, what we have to do now is not to play prisoner.

* * *

The butler of Count Helic’s family.

He gave orders to the soldiers to lock up the alchemist and the boy who was believed to be her apprentice, and left the place.

“Are you not going to deal with them?”

When one of the soldiers asked curiously, the butler said there was no need to do that now.

“First watch. Missing them would be disastrous, so I will not tolerate mistakes.”

“Yes, old!”

He gave strict orders to the soldiers.

The prison is made of a special material. You can’t use magic there, and besides, the alchemist’s belongings have already been confiscated.

“It’s that boy who cares, but… … . That you didn’t rebel must mean that your skills are only that high.”

If it bothers you, just deal with it.

“The only thing you’ve ordered is to secure the alchemist Carrot… … .”

It won’t be too late to judge separately later.

The butler headed elsewhere.

3rd floor of the mansion.

Passing all the way down the hallway where the Count’s family’s room was, the butler stood in front of one of the rooms, tidied up his clothes for a while, and then knocked.

“… … I have finished what you have instructed.”

After waiting for a while, an answer comes from inside the door.

female voice.

“It is quieter than expected. Didn’t you rebel?”

“I am only one alchemist. Accompanying them together didn’t appear to be much of an obstacle.”

“Accompany… … . I heard you’re carrying a boy. It’s strange. According to the information, you probably don’t have the personality to make a disciple.”

“Would you like to take care of it?”

“If you don’t have much strength, leave it alone. It will be enough if you use it as a hostage.”

Her voice was cold, as if she had no interest in a boy she didn’t know.

“To be able to carry out a request that is not even worth it because of a promise made by the master… … . Kuhufu, thanks to you, I was able to easily achieve my goal.”

“I didn’t expect you to come back with a request.”

“Thanks to that, I was able to arrest him without any hassle.”

From the beginning, the request had nothing to do with it.

The purpose is to dig a trap.

“What will you do next? It’s fine if you leave everything to me.”

“I will do the interrogation myself. So don’t do anything stupid and just wait patiently.”

The butler made no further comments.

“Then~ let’s hope that she has the ‘answer’ I’m looking for.”

As if they were happy, as if they were expecting something.

A strange, malevolent voice resounded quietly in the room.

The butler was about to turn away to go back downstairs to focus on the surveillance she had ordered.

“Huh?”

“uh… … . uh?”

At the same time as raising a questionable voice.

An explosion came from downstairs in the mansion.

“… … .”

“You seem to have a violent temper. Be savage.”

“I have no face. But don’t worry. Just suppressing it yourself is enough.”

“Then I’ll leave it to you.”

“Please put your worries aside and wait.”

live with enmity.

The butler heads downstairs where the commotion occurred, scattering an eerie aura that would make even a human without training feel the chills.

《The Mansion of Count Helic》

From noble mtl dot com

《The field will be temporarily corrupted.》

《You will not be able to leave the field until a specific sub-quest is over.》

Yes, he says he can’t go to work.

Mr. Carrot, who had been running at the front, felt a sense of incongruity and looked around.

“Isn’t something over here?!”

He would have left the mansion in no time.

However, no matter how much I ran, I couldn’t reach the front door.

“I am trapped.”

“… … Is it magic?”

“… … Emily?”

As if to check it out, I made Emily take a look.

“Umm~, from the point of view of this older sister, the building boundary of the mansion has temporarily turned into an alien world.”

“Hey, that wouldn’t be easy even with magic.”

“As the alchemist sister said, it is not a human skill.”

It is not a human skill. Carrot’s eyes twisted terribly as he understood the meaning.

It became clear that it was not something that would simply go beyond the tyranny of the nobility.

“Looks like you’ve gotten entangled in some pretty troublesome business.”

“hahahaha… … . It looks like that.”

“Is it time to laugh?”

Yes, it’s time to laugh.

“Since you’ve been fooling around like this, can’t you just burn it?”

Clearly, it has crossed the line of tyranny that can be committed by a single aristocrat.

“Or are you here to make an excuse?”

What I asked was the butler who came down to the floor where we were rampaging without making a sound of footsteps.

The count’s butler.

He was just staring at us with his hands behind his back.

“You are acting foolishly.”

“hahahaha, isn’t that right, Mr. Butler? The guy who says that is going to be decapitated after a few minutes.”

Don’t fall for my provocations.

“Black Mage… … . And what is the contract with you? Something like that. You managed to trick my eyes.”

“Your eyes are swollen.”

At the point of not recognizing his capabilities, there would be no need to ask about his level.

“First of all, I have to say goodbye to you for putting me in a filthy prison.”

I chant the Bone Spear.

The goal spear summoned into the air was pierced straight through the butler’s heart.

Push!

Doesn’t that sound very nice to hear?

“hey… … . Little boy, no matter what.”

“What are you looking for, Carrot? Take a good look. that.”

Mr. Carrot, who had been raising his voice as if he was reluctant to slaughter, was astonished when he realized it.

“no way… … . That spirit… … .”

I couldn’t help but notice.

I would never say that a person who moves even after being pierced through a goal is an ordinary human being.

All the more so if, even after being pierced like that, not a single drop of blood came out.

“It is relentless.”

“You don’t have to look at a non-human.”

Without hesitation, he points out the identity of the guy right away.

“From my point of view… … Maybe a lesser demon? It’s just miscellaneous stuff that mimics a corpse.”

The guy widens his eyes as if in a fit of heat at those words.

Emily also giggled at the word devil.

“Oh, surprisingly, they were the same people. It was so insignificant that it was long.”

devil.

Although he mimics himself, he is unmistakably a devil.
