Chapter 174

It was a coincidence.

It was just passing through. He didn’t even have to look in that direction.

“Sir, what the hell happened here?”

“There will be an official announcement from the royal family soon. Let it pass.”

However, someone who couldn’t bear to be curious spoke to the soldiers, and only then did the half-destroyed mansion from the entrance to the main building come into view, and only belatedly became interested.

And that coincidence led to an unexpected discovery.

As soon as he found it, the man fluttered his robe and ran towards the mansion.

“I’ll pass.”

The soldiers, who were about to frown as if they had met a madman at that confident attitude, quickly turned to each other and retreated left and right, but the man didn’t care. Because his gaze and heart were already plugged into something else and he couldn’t see the surroundings.

Even those who went on-site verification from the inside threw their eyes at first, but soon faced the man’s robe and face, only stepped back and did not impose any restrictions.

He walked up to the second floor with his blue eyes flying and arrived at the space that was Bondi Enbelde’s office.

“Did the demons attack?”

“Oh, no. It’s hard to tell you the details because the disclosure process hasn’t been done yet, but the demons didn’t intervene.”

If the demons had intervened in the first place, they would have brought you, not us. The field agent just lowered his head as he finished his answer.

Although he was just a field research agent, his opponent was a magician who was one of the experts in demon research and ran a library.

However, after hearing that answer, a completely different color began to appear in the man’s eyes, and surprise was painted over his face as he looked around with a cool gaze until he came to the office.

“Who is in charge of this case?”

“You, sir, are the Duke of Lesrom of the House of Nobility.”

“thanks.”

The man did not delay. The man, who left the mansion with steps that were no different from running, cast magic and flew into the sky.

Originally, misconduct by a wizard in the capital city was considered a serious crime, but the man didn’t care at all. It was a situation where you might have caught a clue about something far more important than that.

However, Duke Lesrom couldn’t help but frown when he saw a sudden visitor at the window who was committing such a transgression.

“I know it’s not a light thing since you flew with flying magic, but can you come through the door normally? I don’t think it’s a very formal way to show your face for the first time in years.”

“It’s a waste of time.”

Anyone could see that he was a man who looked 20 years younger than Duke Lesrom, but his casual speech was extremely natural. Even Duke Lesrom, who heard that, shook his head but did not point out his attitude.

“Yeah, it’s been a while since I heard that. What is it?”

“The mansion of Count Enbelde da Bossa. Who did it?”

“...Why are you asking that?”

“Come to think of it, Mr. Ega has a lot of muscles too, right?”

“I’m proud of myself for training myself. I thought it would make me look bigger because of the clothes, but you managed to figure it out.”

Of course, it wasn’t just that I trained myself, but I was confident enough to count it as the number one crystallization of my efforts in this life, but I responded humbly.

“Ah, you don’t know Ega-san because it’s her own body? When you see her in battle, her back muscles are about to burst her clothes.”

“Fuck. No, really?”

“Yes. I’m not kidding. For real. I thought.”

Yekatrina really wasn’t a joke during the abandoned dungeon. It was the same when I dealt with the mercenaries in the forest.

“Certainly, Ekaterina is a threat even with her arms crossed.”

“Isn’t that the same story for Mr. Ega?”

“I know it, so I use it often.”

Contrary to the street that started to become noisy when we entered the inn, joking lightly, we saw a hall that was quite secluded and a group of people who seemed to have just ordered lunch.

“Huh? How did you bring Eldmia?”

“We met on the road by an amazing coincidence. We talked about inviting dinner, but you couldn’t figure out where the inn was, so it was a combination.”

Ekaterina, wide-eyed, set down the luggage she had brought to the wall where she was sitting, and greeted her lightly while Rellie answered, and Mr. Gin opened his mouth while stroking his beard.

“Heh heh, I wonder if this is really related.”

“Wouldn’t it be like doing an adventurer’s job with this taste?”

Seeing Mr. Gin and Mr. Gaendal talking with a friendly smile makes me very friendly.

If I hadn’t been involved with the demons, I would have been dreaming of an adventurous life with party members like this, but it’s a bit confusing.

“Rather than that, you said you agreed to try to find out the location of the inn?”

“I’m always welcome, but I need to check my sister’s opinion. Not right away, but I’ll visit soon.”

“Well, that’s enough to agree! Have a meal while you’re here! It’ll be out soon. It’s been a while since I ordered!”

No, I just watched the waitress take the order and go in. Such a lame lie?

However, Ekaterina wasn’t the only one who smiled happily and offered a seat, so she decided to sit down quietly without hesitation. How can you ignore a white lie for a favor?

After that, until the food was served, he answered questions similar to those of Lelye and talked about the events of the past few days, and the story of the dragon blood clan was mentioned again.

“Hahaha! Well, it’s something like the native beliefs of the people of Lovell. Surprisingly, only those in the know know about it, but he must have been quite knowledgeable.”

“It’s said that he fought on the demon frontline, so I wondered if he’d seen it at least once.”

“Oh, yes? Then you must be a good friend.”

“I thought so too, but it’s so cool.”

Unlike the others who smiled hahaha, Lellie, whom I had just heard from before, showed an expression that finally understood why I hadn’t heard a detailed explanation about the Dragonblood Clan.
