Chapter 22: Operation Sap! The protagonist lies down and becomes stronger!

I heard that this guy is the bastard son of an Earl. Are we really going to confront him?Follow current novels on novelb((in).(com)

Hes just an illegitimate child. Whats the worst that could happen? If hes not the person our superiors are after, we can discreetly send him on his way.

Our superiors want us to take more decisive action, so lets confront him directly.

Lets wait until he places his order and then take action.

Late at night, three individuals sat together at a table in a tavern, gliding at a person in the distance and whispering amongst themselves. These three individuals were also members of Su Mos intelligence organisation. The person they were observing happened to be the illegitimate son of a viscount, whose recent behaviour had become a cause for concern.

It was a well-known fact that the status of illegitimate children was considered extremely low and that the illegitimate children of nobles were typically denied inheritance rights. However, this particular illegitimate child was a unique case. The viscounts legitimate son suffered from a debilitating illness, which meant that he might not live for much longer. This circumstance caused the illegitimate sons mind to become active as he considered the possibility of securing his fathers inheritance.

In the past, the illegitimate son had been known for his diligence, always rushing to complete tasks and treating the Viscountess with greater kindness than even his mother. This had won him the favour of the Viscountess. However, in recent days, something had happened to him.

Suddenly, he had become decadent and aimless, neglecting his duties and spending his days and nights idly. His favourite pastime now was drinking, socialising, occasionally attending the technical academy, and sleeping. Rumours circulated that the reason for this sudden change was that a priest of the Holy See had miraculously healed the Viscounts legitimate son.

But just as he began to walk towards an alley, a wooden stick suddenly struck him with lightning speed, causing him to fall to the ground before he could even react. It seemed that he had not noticed the ambush set up for him.

Nima

The protagonist was struck with a wooden stick but did not lose consciousness and even cursed.

Huh? Not out yet? A voice sounded, followed by the sound of the wind.

Fu*k!

The protagonist collapsed, and his eyes grew dark as he lost consciousness.

Its finished!

In the darkness, a figure dressed in black appeared, clapped their hands, and retrieved a rope.

Meanwhile, a large-scale kidnapping operation began under Su Mos orders in various cities across the Crescent Kingdom. Many suspected protagonists were knocked unconscious with sap.
