110 Chapter 6-9: Blocking the coup

"No matter how much my uncle tells me, I'm allowed to do this to the Viscount, hiccup!

Wake up Henkel tries to yell at Grandpa, but he was hit by Grandpa's killer and screamed a small scream.

"I don't remember having a nephew like you!

With my grandfather's drink, Henkel shudders with rattles. The Viscounts of Mustang who saw Henkel like that, laughter is leaking from the nobility of the Neutralists.

Henkel looked at it and looked at the neutrals, but on the contrary shrunk with a glance at Viscount Mustang. Henkel and Viscount Mustang are aristocrats of the same class, but they have different statures as human beings, no matter where they come from.

On the contrary, the nobles behind Viscount Mustang should be more younger than Henkel with all the nobles below the Viscount, but they also looked outrageous compared to them.

"Whoa! You're the tenma, I'm yours..."

Henkel, who found me, tried to crawl over to me, but I took the knife out silently. When I finally skipped the kill lightly, this changed Henkel's complexion to an interesting condition again.

"Grandpa, Viscount Mustang. If a stranger on the battlefield says he's inside and he's approaching, there's nothing wrong with cutting him off, is there?

This is where Podro might have been about to have a coup and is still in the process of being reprocessed by the Jins, so it's not strange to say that this is now a battlefield and the battle is not completely over.

That's where people sneak in who don't know if they're enemies or allies. There would be no complaints about cutting it off as a safety priority, he threatened Henkel while getting confirmation from his grandfathers.

Grandpa and Viscount Mustang, realizing it, make a serious look and nod.

"There's nothing wrong with that. It's a common story to pretend to be on your side and try to destroy it from the inside, and it's actually a great deal of damage to your side."

"Right. Besides, he's been trying to break himself into the chain of command by pushing Lord Merlin, who hits his deputy on this battlefield. How suspicious... In the first place, His Majesty informed me that Lord Tenma's body is currently only Lord Merlin, and there is no one else. I mean, he's a con artist or something."

There's no way the royal message hasn't gone to Henkel, who's going to use me the most. So this guy is Henkel's fake? I thought so, but in the appraisal, it is with Henkel himself.

"Perhaps if I said it was about Sealia, I thought we could smoke some delicious juice... forget what we did to Sealia and Ricardo!

Grandpa's anger is rekindling.

Viscount Mustang said, "In the first place, who else was Henkel at the time of his acceptance when Lord Seelia and the others offered to cut off the edge to His Majesty before him?" and laying firewood on his grandfather's flames of anger.

"Ooh, Tenma. I'm sorry, but I need your help! There are a few of them alive, so we need to know how many of them are!

and Jin called me without reading the air. Grandpa got hacked with that voice and settled down a bit to see if he could afford to look around.

"Then let's get some people out of here. If you prove it, it would be more convenient to have a nobleman."

With that said, Viscount Mustang glanced at the neutrals who were behind him and turned some toward the Jins.

That's when I saw Albert and the others coming this way from the back of the mansion.

Exactly, Jeanne and Aura are putting the sasori-shaped golem back on the back of Silowmall.

The lead was Albert, behind which were Silowmall (+ Jeanne and Aura), Tanicase (+ Slalin) and Podro in the luggage, both diagonally reared by Lion and Cain, Solomon over everyone.

"Well, this is quite a luxury transfer."

Viscount Mustang grins delightfully as he strokes his chin (beard).

Indeed, in the next Duke, the Marquis and the Borderline uncle turn to the escort, and in addition to the Shilowmall, which became famous for the tournament, there is a Solomon, with a metal horse-shaped golem in criminal tow. You won't see it under normal circumstances.

At the same time Jeanne and the others arrived at me, Jin and the others apparently finished confirming, pulling the survivors of the six.

"Then it's time to return to the royal castle."

Albert started looking around when everyone tried to snort out at my words.

"Hey, Tenma. Where'd Namitaro go? We've been led so far to Namitaro..."

I first remembered Namitaro when I heard the words.

Because of him, I think he was hanging out there somewhere, but when I tried to find him on the expedition just in case, the mansion that was slightly left collapsed.

Everyone was suddenly surprised and armed, but it was Namitaro who came out of the crumbling mansion.

"Tenma, there were treasures in the basement."

Namitaro, who had slipped all the way before me, began to take out some of the treasure and the doings.

Namitaro served about a hundred weapons and protective equipment each, dozens of kg of preserved food sturdy bread, dried meat, and a few pots filled with gold and silver coins.

Besides, they still have about ten times the amount in Namitaro's bag, which is finally becoming more likely to be a coup.

"This should be seen as having other accomplices"

"Yes, I am."

Grandpa agrees with Viscount Mustang. I do think so too. Whatever, I don't think Podro will try to have a coup on his own, and I don't think he has the guts to do that.

"Then should we call the Knights from the Royal Castle and stay here until we finish the takeover?

"Right. Perhaps after we leave, we will retrieve or destroy other evidence here."

As for the destruction now, maybe there are other important things hidden, so it is necessary to stay on the spot.

"Then let's send the use here to the royal castle. And it would be nice to hit the guard here with the rest."

Viscount Mustang seemed accustomed to this sort of thing and immediately sent the neutral nobles to the royal castle and began to give instructions to the rest of the nobles.

"Lord Tenma, do you mind if I do this?"

After giving the instructions, Viscount Mustang asked me for permission for some reason.

I think the title on this occasion is that Viscount Mustang will be at the top, and even from experience and so on, he should be the representative, but somehow when I hear Viscount Mustang,

"Our first arrival here was Lord Tenma, wasn't it? Besides, they destroyed it. I can't do anything to sidestep that handle. Besides, we rushed as reinforcements. Then it is better to set up a leader for the first group that was here. Fortunately, Lord Tenma remembers His Majesty well. There's nothing wrong with being a leader."

And they pushed the leader. Besides, no one questioned the matter was stopped, and the Viscounts of Mustang were temporarily added to my subordination, although they were the decorative leaders.

"We can't fit in, and we'll take turns placing around the ruins of the mansion. Reinforcements should be coming from the Royal Castle soon, but not to be distracted."

Viscount Mustang's instructions were accurate and I was truly decorative.

When I said I was going to do it, I asked Shiloumal to guard the outer perimeter, and with Solomon I took an aerial walk in the name of guarding from the sky...

However, I couldn't give instructions, but I was delighted to provide the food I had in my bag, etc., so I managed to keep my face as a leader......

About thirty minutes after the discovery of Namitaro's seizure, the knights began arriving from the royal castle, and in about an hour we were able to take over and finally leave the mansion.

However, from now on, to me and my grandfather, Jeanne and Aura, Namitaro, and to Albert and the three of them. Viscount Mustang had to head to the royal castle and tell the Kings what was going on.

It should be noted that the Jins of the Third Battalion and the rest of the nobles of the Neutralists went straight to their mansions and accommodations.

As soon as we arrived at the Imperial Castle, we were immediately allowed to pass by during a glance.

By the way, it looks like the Podros were picked up by another knight en route and taken to the dungeon.

Between the sights we have been guided, we have already gathered the kings, Caesar, the Chancellor and the nobles who were the Lord in the face of the ministerial position.

If you look closely at the nobles, they are divided into three groups.

The biggest group is probably royalty because it's behind the Caesars.

The other two are next door, so there was no certainty as to which, but since one group is staring at the other, there was an approximate idea.

"Thank you for your hard work late. According to the report, 'by Associate Viscount Podro Il Chloride, possible coup d 'état', but give us a detailed report"

To the king's word, the most titled Viscount Mustang of us stepped forward and began reporting.

The contents were such as to affirm what the King had said in large part, but when he added that there could be other collaborators, it became noisy during the sight.

"Quiet!

With the voice of the Prime Minister and the person introduced, the nobles gradually quieted down.

When it was quiet, the king opened his mouth.

"An object has already been submitted in support of Viscount Mustang's report and an investigation is underway in the military. Secretary of State."

"Ha! What was discovered by Viscount Mustang and others is a large quantity of weapons, food and funds, enough has been discovered to determine that it is a coup, and from that number we have determined that there are likely to be other collaborators or accomplices, and we are currently investigating"

Lady Lyle's remarks make the scene noisy again.

At the same time, the air between the glances began to tingle.

The cause is what Master Lyle said earlier.

Sometimes the mastermind of this time was the reformist Podro, and the royal and neutral nobility looked at the reformist nobility somewhere in denunciation.

The gaze of the royal and neutral nobles who heard Mr. Lyle speak there became stronger, so the reformist nobles looked back to react to it, which at once led to a deterioration in the air.

"You're saying the military suspects we're responsible for Podro's crimes, sir?

Speaking was a fat bald sexually harassed uncle, unpopular in the castle NO, 1! (Luna looking into it) It's the Duke of Kaisen von Durham.

Even I knew right away how Luna really looked like I didn't know her face.

But that's just the case with one minister, and the power to stare at Master Lyle is considerable.

There seems to be an invisible spark between Lord Lyle and the Duke of Durham.

"Wouldn't it be helpful if they thought so?

Unsurprisingly, it was Dear Zain (Treasurer) who entered the battle. Zayn, who usually has a quiet image, stares at the Duke of Durham.

"You used to instigate Prince Tida and Princess Luna to go outside and kill cattle, putting you both in danger."

"That's a little different, Treasurer. I just taught the prince and princess the importance of building a battle in action and the cows that breed at this time of year. Isn't it the prince and the princess who got out of the castle and put their hands on the herd of cattle? Will you stop talking?"

The trinity of the three eventually turns into a royalist and reformist stare.

Both factions heating up step by step. Neutralists gradually distance themselves from both factions, which create disturbing air.

"Everyone, let's settle down first. There will be words for sale, but I disrespect you in front of Your Majesty."

A man who was at the head of a different group from the Duke of Durham broke in, pounding his hands with bread.

You must be a great neutral because you're somewhere else with the Duke of Durham, but I didn't know his name.

"Lord Tenma. He is one of the central figures of the Neutralists, Count Alan Van Kromfer, Minister of Foreign Affairs."

Viscount Mustang, who was moving beside me, told me secretly.

Count Cromfel is not what I imagined him to be, but an impression of being a gentle man. I don't think he's very much a foreign minister.

Count Cromfel confirmed that the surroundings had quieted down,

"Treasurer, military secretary, it's not a good idea to pinch personal feelings in the reporting arena. Secretary of the Interior, I know you're suspicious and uncomfortable, but this is the end of what happened to those in your faction. Forget about it, I want you to refrain from saying anything that would sell you a fight."

A tone is an earl who speaks backwards and in a thick way. I'm laughing at Nico, but I could see from the words that it was obvious that I didn't really think of the Duke of Durham.

"Your Majesty, how about this punishment of the Podro Viscounts?

The prime minister asked the king about the punishment of the Podros without taking the bad air for a thing. The king pretended to think a little,

"Associate Viscount Podro Il Chloride is imprisoned in prison after being stripped of his title. Treatment shall be decided upon as soon as detailed results are available. With regard to the others held captive on that occasion, with regard to those with a previous record of first and misdemeanor offences, they shall be sent to mines or pioneering sites on the fallen of slaves, and those with a previous record of felony offences shall be sentenced to death. And let the people know about it. This is a royal life."

The moment the word "death penalty" came out of the king, it became noisy during the sight. Whatever, even if there has been a dispute between the nobles in the last few decades, there has been no apparent (...) execution in the Wang capital.

Sometimes no one had committed that crime, but the kings of history were reluctant to let the people know that the death penalty had been carried out.

Even in this world, where people's lives are light, there are a certain number of opponents of the death penalty among the intellectuals, and the purpose was also to avoid making a distinction and creating a seed of contention. Moreover, some opponents of the death penalty are of poor quality because of their aristocracy.

But this is not something that can be missed, and it will only be made public because I am confident that those opposed to the death penalty will not be allowed to say whether or not, and Viscount Mustang says that Podro will almost certainly be condemned to death as well.

"Even as a reformist, I guess it would be more convenient to put Podro to death"

"Well, to prove that we're not involved in the coup, the death sentence is a boat, and Podro is not such an influential nobleman, he's a substitute."

Even as a reformist, Podro was originally the guy who came in betraying Viscount Almeria, who hits his home muscle, so you'd think he wasn't there from the beginning, so it should be just right for the sacrifice.

While Viscount Mustang and I were talking, the royalist and reformist stare seemed to be over, and later we just had a detailed discussion to dissolve.

"Tenma, Viscount Mustang, those men may fall back. Let me get something light for you in the separate room, so you can rest a while."

The king told us to leave first, but this would mean waiting in a separate room.

When we left for a moment, Mr. Cliff and Aina were waiting outside to show us around.

In the room that was guided there were Tida and Luna, and Lady Isabella. And for some reason, there's Amur and Blanca.

Amur flew in to hug me when he noticed that I had come into the room, but I held Amur's head and stopped him.

And when I saw Mr. Cliff, he immediately told me why the two of them were here.

Apparently, these two got worried after they broke up with us, so let's get to the royal castle, but the gatekeeper refused to enter the castle. So he was stuffy, and Branca said Eina's name, so Eina was called, and she went through this room with permission from Master Isabella.

"I've come so far, worried about Tenma!

Amur was desperate to hold his head against me, but managed to hold it against me. In that way, there were about two cold glances piercing through my back, but I pretended not to notice and ignored them.

After such an exchange, I was sitting in front of the Isabellas talking to the public.

Amur, who was desperately trying to hug me, is being made to take a seat away from me in anger by Blanca. And Jeanne and Aura were equally seated at the front near it.

Before the two who suffer from leg paralysis is Eina, the Jen-royal.

After being forced to confess the reason for this noise, they entered sermon time.

By the way, when I briefly explained how they were to be caught in a podlo flavor, after my grandfather and I went out to clean the kitchen, I noticed that there was less food reserves, went shopping to replenish it early, and was caught in a less popular place.

That's about to free Eina from her preaching sooner rather than later, but there were a few things that Eina regarded as particularly problematic.

The first is that he acted on his own while I was away.

However, since I had allowed myself some freedom, Eina reluctantly confined herself to a slight advice because it was on the extension line.

The second is that you didn't ask Namitaro to escort you.

We knew we were going to get noticed in many ways (...), which led to this noise because we didn't take Namitaro, who was being treated as my family. If Namitaro was here, at least he wouldn't have been caught. Eina pointed out that there was a problem with Namitaro not speaking up because he was asleep. I was of the same opinion.

And the third, in a way, was also the cause of Eina's anger the most. It's because they didn't take the weapon and they forgot about the existence of the sasori-type golem.

As for both of them weapons, they thought it would be unnecessary because that was a little bit, and the golem was out of their heads until they were critical.

Eina said that even though I and Eina beat me up on how to handle and fight weapons, it was too much to carry a minimal protective weapon, and that such a relaxation was the primary cause of this noise. This is only half (...) agreed with me.

The reason Eina and I disagreed half the time was because even if it was caused by a relaxation of our minds, we thought there were aspects of it that we couldn't help but be looked at by the people who were doing business with the crime. But you didn't listen to me. Eina said, "Assuming you're a servant of the Timer (the winner), it's just enough to be too alert".

Otherwise, Aina repeated her points in detail, and the sermon began until it had nothing to do with the matter.

As a result, it has been a lengthy sermon time, a situation where the end is still unseen.

The public discourse that backed Eina's sermon was surprisingly bouncing, and we enjoyed tea while pinching the new treat "Tamakan" that came out of the story.

By the time we started talking and an hour later, the kings had finally arrived.

The king approached me with a loud sigh as he entered the room, pinching a potato kan over my shoulder and throwing it into his mouth.

With the king entering the room, Albert and the others stood and saluted, about to step back, but the king kept him seated.

The king sat in front of me, where Master Isabella was sitting, beside it, Maria, a little further away, the Caesars lowered their hips, Isabella and Tida. Luna moved to the other side of the Caesars, and Aina interrupted the sermon just as well (...).

"I'm tired...... Ugh!

Maria next door elbowed and corrected her posture on the side of the king, who tried to fool me as soon as she sat in front of me.

"I know. Wow! Thank you for preventing Tenma, Lord Merlin, and the coup. Albert von Sanga, Lion von Houst, Cain von Summons, even then, are happy to have acted swiftly and contributed to suppressing the coup. We'll let you know as soon as the prisoner's sentence is confirmed."

I almost blew out at the unusual king tone, but Albert and the others were in a hurry to get to their knees and bow their heads.

"Well, that's how hard it will be. But Tenma, you did a really good job. This will make the reformists grow up. Temporarily, I guess."

This event, he said, will also inform the public. In nominal terms, it is because it is quite a felony in the history of the kingdom, but the aim would be to sharpen the power of the reformists from anywhere.

They also let me know how well I, Grandpa, Albert and the Viscounts of Mustang work with it, so they asked me to forgive them, although it would be more troublesome.

I admitted to thinking about this in the future, but I was wondering if you could delete only my name (...). Well, I don't care what you think...

Afterwards, Zain called to confirm what would be announced.

"Tenma, could you sell me some combat golems?

To the sudden words, everyone in the room stopped moving.
