A Berserker Mob, I’m Going to Participate in the Main Story - CH 41.3
“I am so thankful for that. I couldn’t just run away from a knight who was faithful to his duty.”
The basement of the packed house of the Order of Security guards. A so-called detention center. I was thrown into jail where I was temporarily detained.
Al explained to the security knights who rushed to the scene, but he was taken away without question in mana-blocking handcuffs. Al did not resist. He gave up because of the situation. He was caught red-handed.
In the end, after receiving Vera’s call, the royal shadows also examined the situation closely. It was not until noon of the next day that Yoel came to pick him up at the stuffing house to guarantee his identity. Overnight stay.
Incidentally, Vera returned to Cyrus and the others to warn them of another attack.
“What are you doing in town in the middle of the day? Instead of moving suddenly, you should at least contact us in advance. I heard that the arrangements have become absurd. …… Huh. I heard that Claire-sama was laughing so hard that she shed a rare tear when she heard the report.”
“No, I didn’t think I was dealing with the people that Lady Claire and others saw as the enemy, either. …… (Well, actually, I noticed it along the way.)”
Yoel looks a little tired. The melancholy of a lowly executioner.
This commotion comes at a time when Victor is coordinating the connection to the other squads and the security knights. Although Yoel and the others were not directly involved in the coordination, Victor’s grumpiness as a superior officer was unbearable.
“So? What happened to that creepy golem and the lower half of that? I left the advice for the guards to call the church officials because of the impure mana involved …”
“Even though we were impatient after seeing the horrific scene, there is no one foolish enough to carelessly touch it directly. We had checked with those who are skilled in dispelling and exorcism spells in the church and they were working on it. It seems that the wreckage of the golem is now under the control of the Knights of the Cathedral. …… However, when Claire-sama saw the lower half of the golem, she said, [It’s a shell. The inside got away. And she asked me to tell that to Mister Al.]”
Al is mortified at hearing Claire’s message.
(Oh, come on. What do you mean by contents escaped? Are they parasites or something? Are such people “enemies”? I don’t mind the semantics, only against the main character …… Games and such, but I’d be pissed off if there were actual people who say semantics and trip into their own world….!)
Al complains inwardly that he is unable to resist Claire’s violence at the moment, but he is not angry.
Al himself, however, did not feel that he had killed the enemy. And although he was wary of the enemy’s wreckage, he also had the impression that it looked like it had molted. However, he had no idea where he had escaped to or what was inside.
“What should we do from now on? Will the Courtenay family continue to be shaken up by the knights?
“I heard that they are going to readjust that area, but they are going to implement the plan itself. So we will ask Al-dono to accompany us in that case. …… Please be quiet, okay?”
Claire’s plan continues. The raid on the Courtenay family was carried out. However, this operation itself assumes that the Courtenay family has already been informed.
In other words, the message is simply, “If there is something you don’t like being probed, cut it out before it’s too late.”
If you are going to liquidate the bad relationship there, good. If not, then it is a warning to the city’s aristocrats, which is often seen in the royal city…….
“If they didn’t try to mess with me, I’d stay quiet.”
“No, no, no, I’m just kidding! Yep kidding.”
Al succumbs to Yoel’s pressure. He knows that it is not good to make fun of him now. He wants to distance himself from the shadow of the royal family, but his surety is important.
“If you get permission to visit, is it okay if I just ask you how Lord Cerian is doing? Probably, it was the shell of the mana that attacked Lord Cerian with the black mana.”
“Yes, that’s right. Well, if that’s the extent of the problem,…… there are not many people who can perceive black mana properly at present,…… and I will report that to Master Victor as well…”
“As for the rest, I’ll stay low and quiet at the Angus Inn or the Guild.”
With a quick check, Al parted ways with Yoel.
Searching his surroundings, he cannot detect anyone with special harmful intentions or black mana with mass-like intensity. Al judges that the enemy does not intend to attack aggressively in succession.
Although there was no response that he had killed them, he had the feeling that he had inflicted severe damage on them.
“Now, if only there was a change in Lord Cerian’s physical condition. It would mean that we could solve the problem without killing the enemy. …… But in the first place, what effect or purpose did that, the black mana snake, have?”
