Chapter 346

‘It looks like he’s using magic.’

Naturally, a great uproar ensued. At first, he tried to join in, but Eldmia politely blocked him, so he had to watch from behind.

It wasn’t without discomfort... To be honest, it was a very rare spectacle to be honest, beating a dozen mercenaries and travelers who had been fighting from behind while avoiding the gatekeeper’s attack. So much so that it feels a little refreshing.

In the meantime, the fact that he hadn’t even touched the gatekeeper was noticed later when the knight brought the guards from the inner city.

“Gee, Knight! That’s him! He’s been rampaging and assaulting!”

At first they realized that they were not capable of dealing with them, but the moment the gatekeepers, who had been wandering around without being able to stop them, clung to the knight and complained, Celebian expected that the situation would become very troublesome. That was the case until the knight with the most formidable impression approached and met Eldmia’s eyes, and after checking the thirty-something city guard behind him, he was almost certain.

“Is it true?”

“It is false.”

And even with the article in front of me, I had to stick out my tongue at Eldmia’s self-assertion in short words. At least, the elves, including Celebian, were in a group, so they just stuck out their tongues. Those who were beaten and fell, and the gatekeepers were angry with their faces reddened.

“Me, that shameless!”

However, Eldmia paid no attention to the commotion around her and spoke directly facing the knight as if to prove that she was not just confident.

“I never ran amok. I just told the gatekeepers to do their duty, and in the process, all they did was fight back with the others who thought I was blocking their way. They didn’t draw their weapons, and the city’s troops were met with violence. They didn’t even wield a weapon. Rather, they pulled out the weapon, and the gatekeeper refused the entry of the elves who had completed their identity verification.”

“...do you really know what it means to make such a claim here and now?”

“Everyone knows.”

The knight’s face crumpled once more at the sight of Eldmia, who held out the identity card of the Margrave of Kelvast and answered calmly. I thought I was going to shout out to arrest them immediately, but the driver ordered the guards and started collecting testimonies from those in front of the gate.

And in the end, it was the gatekeeper who was punished. Eldmia responded naturally, but the elves, including Celebians, were quite taken aback.

The reasons were abuse of authority, excess of authority, and neglect of duty. The knight, who had suddenly become in a position to punish the city’s gatekeeper in front of everyone’s eyes, said after clearing things up and glaring at Eldmia.

“I hope you can handle it. If you don’t, you’ll be in real trouble. Elves in the West... are just elves.”

Although he was a Celebian who did not have much knowledge about human life, he could guess what the article meant. Even if Eldmia’s actions were justified, she would not be able to straighten her eyes because she had raised this level of shame for something that could have ended quietly with just a few fairy tales.

There must have been a way to solve it quietly and amicably enough. The knight was implicitly pressuring him that he would pay the price for his arrogance.

“Thanks for the advice. In return, I’ll give you one too.”

Eldmia, who tapped the knight’s pauldron with an infinitely relaxed attitude even though she couldn’t have understood the meaning behind it, continued with a smileless face.

“I do it because I have to.”

– This is a funny guy. Judging by his appearance, he seems to know what Ji did and why we got together?- -He

must be a proud person. But what about this? Did someone at the top of the legal fringe that guarded you send us to take care of you in this lawless land? –

All twelve pursuers were dressed in a variety of outfits, but they acted like they were used to this kind of thing. One of them was watching as if he was standing in the back, wrapped up tightly, perhaps the lord had attached him for confirmation.

The actual number of combatants is eleven. It included the two wizards that the watcher had identified earlier. Judging from the equipment exposed under the cloak, it was clear that he was a battle mage.

-I heard you were told to obey the law in front of the knight? Why don’t you look for the law here too?-

-You’ll find a way to die.- -Isn’t

he

supposed to find a way to survive?

They were famous performers.

They say there’s been a feud with a nearby city lately, so it looks like you’ve got some good outlaws nearby. While the Observer was genuinely happy that he had more to report, he mourned briefly as he anticipated the bleak future of the Observer.

At that time, the monitoring target opened his mouth as he lightly jumped off the horse while holding the ax that was hanging from the horse’s saddle.

-My name is Eldmia Ega.-

At that one word, the watcher’s head spins and the most emphasized content among the ‘several precautions’ he heard from the client came to mind.

‘My name is Eldmia Ega.’ If you say the word, stop monitoring immediately for any reason, keep as far away as possible, and report with top priority.

-Oh, introduce yourself? But they don’t know who we are. Giggles.-

-That’s right. I just need you to know who I am.- -...What

are you talking about ?

The pursuers were startled by the magical phenomenon. It wasn’t even a hatchet, it was a two-handed axe, but suddenly, where?

However, unlike them, the watcher, who could see the whole situation through the magical eyes floating in the sky, was not surprised, but rather stunned, canceled the magic and ran away.

After seeing the sight of a two-handed ax the size of my body flying into the chest of the man on the lord’s side as if it were moving in space, I understood why he had been told not to touch it.

He wasn’t just a madman, he was a fucking dangerous madman.

-Mi crazy fuck! The client is dead...!-

The desperate cry heard while the eavesdropping magic, which was released late, was fading out of embarrassment, felt like a warning, so the watcher quickly ran away, casting magic on the horse.

Even without the eavesdropping magic, the screams that began to resonate in the barren wasteland could be heard very well.
