To Deprive a Deprived Person - Chapter 274: My name is
TDADP chapter 274: My name is
“What’s wrong with that letter?”
Matilde turns a suspicious look at Reinart’s letter. The letter was wax-sealed. At this point, the sender is unlikely to be a commoner and is narrowed down to aristocrats or merchants. This is because it is unusual for commoners to seal letters in general.
“The sender is Yuu Satou”
“When did it arrive?”
With a slight eye widening, Matilde asks. Yuu, who blocked the plan of 『Dragon Fang』, can be said to be a grudge against the liners. The question is why it has been silent until now though the letter has arrived from the other party.
“Come on?”
“Are you making a fool of me?”
The magic power that Matilde clades in transforms into an aggressive thing. The temperature inside the hideout was rising sharply and the people around felt it from their dry skin, which suddenly lost water.
“Calm down. I didn’t even notice it until now”
“Such a stupid story……”
If Reinart isn’t lying, then Yuu put the letter on Reinart’s desk, unnoticed by the hideout of Dragon Fang, which always has dozens of adventurers. Aside from the surprised Matilde, Reinart removes the wax from the letter and checks the contents.
“What is he writing?”
“It’s a polite sentence, but in a nutshell, how long do you plan to cut white? It says to come to Casa Hill tomorrow morning. Hey, how many people can you gather from now on?”
“Some of the people are diving in the labyrinth and others are out on a request――well, about eighty people can be gathered right away”
In response to Reinart’s question, one of the clan members tells the number of people that can be mobilized.
“Satou is the King of the Nameless Kingdom, which also has an equal alliance with the Udon Kingdom. You should talk to Leo”
“I don’t have that time”
“Be calm. Its the one who destroyed Balue and Lawrence in a few months. Make time for discussions here. There’s a lot of stupidity to fight with force”
“Are you fooling around when the beast is trying to thrust its fangs into our neck?”
“The other person is not a beast that doesn’t understand our language”
“Matilde, you’re right. Satou is worse than a beast. Does the Balue faction know what the end of Lawrence was?”
“Still”
“I’ll talk about it. But if you don’t show your strength before that, you won’t even be able to get to the negotiating table? You guys have heard? It’s a game against time! 『Nameless』 should have come to the royal capital! Investigate all the places where they seem to be lurking!!”
“Ouu!”
“Don’t forget to send personnel to Casa Hill”
“I know, even if I’m not told”
“In some cases, it could be a battle in the city. Actions should be done separately for each party!”
“OK! You guys are going!!”
“Wait. Ah, already!”
Matilde’s efforts to stop it is in vain. The clan members jump out of the hideout one after another.
“What are you going to do?”
Reinart asks Matilde, who holds her head.
“Now that’s the case, I’ll accompany you to tomorrow’s meeting with Satou”
However, even when the sun went down and the sun changed, 『Dragon Fang』 couldn’t find any 『Nameless』 person, let alone Yuu.
——————————–
The next morning, on Casa Hill, there was a figure of Reinart who hadn’t slept.
“Is Satou making a fool of me?”
Involuntarily, Reinart curses. Around Reinart, there were members and Matilde who had been partying for a long time. The remaining 『Dragon Fang』 are already hidden in the surrounding shadows.
“Reinart”
Needless to say his name, Reinart touches the handle of his sword in response to the magic reaction that drifts from an empty space.
“Aren’t you early?”
Yuu, who emerged from the gate created by space-time magic, mutters when he sees Reinart taking a position. It is Russ who follows Yuu. Reinart clicks his tongue inwardly at Yuu who appears in front of him. This is because most of the traps that had been set up from the royal capital to Casa Hill were wasted.
“Are you the only one?”
“I said I’m okay alone. I just don’t ask you to follow me”
(Don’t underestimate)
Although it is not apparent from the outside, Reinart’s eyes become sharp.
“The biting louse over there. What’s that wording to master from earlier?”
With red eyes, Russ glares at Reinart.
“Are you bothered by anything?”
“You, who are inferior to maggots, are not the permissible wording for my master who is the king. First, you should kneel and bow your head. In the first place, with the permission of anyone, you worship Master’s face”
“That’s bad. But I’m not a member of the Allies of Raem and only the Udon Kingdom recognizes the Nameless Kingdom as a country. I don’t want to be told to honor the king of such a country”
“You……”
“Don’t get so angry. I told you the facts”
If it were the usual Russ, it would seem that he would split Reinart into eight on the spot, but probably because he was in front of Yuu, he didn’t touch him. Reinart throws an item pouch at Yuu’s feet while looking down at the gnashing Russ inwardly, 「Satou’s dog」.
“Satou, I know what you’re doing. The item pouch contains the 10 billion Madoka reward I received from Balue”
“So?”
“From the beginning, 『Dragon Fang』wasn’t involved in the battle between Balue and 『Nameless』. I would like you to say that. Think of the money as a hand-made price”
It is not only the adventurers who are good at each conflict, but also the countries and merchants who often use it to be bullish in negotiations and proceed in an advantageous way regardless of their own faults.
“It’s not enough”
With that said, Yuu kicks the item pouch at his feet back towards Reinart.
“What!? There should have been no casualties in 『Nameless』when we stole the timeless item pouch. How many of 『Dragon Fang』do you think have died?”
“Come on? How many people have died?”
It was a light way of listening that he wasn’t interested in.
“You……”
Not only Reinart, but also the clan members around him overflow with murder intent.
“Why do I have to deal with trash like you? You guys aren’t adventurers. Hiding your affiliation, surrounding a woman, hurting and robbing things. Even if it’s a petty thief, will he steal something in front of someone’s eyes? It’s just how many flies-like people who gather in the dung below the mud die, but I don’t know”
“Satou, are you going to kill us with just the two of you?”
“At first I was thinking of doing it alone. Russ, do it”
“Haa!”
In response to Yuu’s signal, Russ develops the 8th rank holy magic 『Holy Barrier』.
“It’s a powerful barrier magic!”
“But what does this mean?”
The clan members of 『Dragon Fang』 thought that 『Holy Barrier』 would divide their strength, but Russ’s 『Holy Barrier』 covered Casa Hill. This means that almost all the ambush soldiers placed around them are within the barrier.
“You biting louses, are enough for me to do it――”
“Russ, roll up your robe”
“――I understand……Master? What did you say now?”
“I told you to roll up your robe. I can see your feet”
Russ is usually floating. However, when Yuu looked at the feet of Russ, he could see pretty feet from the robe.
“Master……this is……actually…………”
“Namari, come out. Do you want to offend me?”
After a short wait, Namari and Momo appear from Russ’s robe as if they were thinking. Secretly to Yuu, they forcibly asked Russ halfway and followed him.
“Sorry”
Namari and Momo apologize to Yuu with a crying face.
“It’s a punishment. You alone should deal with them”
Reinart couldn’t understand what Yuu was saying. No, he understands, but he couldn’t keep up with his head. Even though it is the lower clan of 『Dragon Brigade』, there are dozens of adventurers in this field, including A-rank adventurer Reinart. What’s more, even Matilde, who is also an A-rank adventurer as Reinart is here. Reinart and his members are confused by Yuu, who orders them to fight with only Namari and Momo, who seem to be just a demon child and a Pixie, in front of the strength that can win against the army of a small country. It was not unreasonable.
“What are you talking about? You really want to make such a child fight”
Matilde looks at her enemies, Namari and Momo, as if she were looking at a pitiful thing. But――
“Is that alright? It’s easy!”
Namari and Momo smile at the content of the punishment.
“But there is no killing”
“Eh……”
Namari’s body hardens on the condition that she shouldn’t kill someone. Until now, all she had to do was kill the enemy. If she did only that, Yuu would praise her. But don’t kill this time. It was difficult for Namari.
“What’s wrong, why stop?”
“No, I’ll do it”
“Nana, don’t help”
“Master, certainly”
Nana, who was watching in the corner of Namari, obeyed Yuu’s words.
“What’s that unpleasant slime!?”
“Do you know? If you’re curious, ask Satou”
“That’s okay. I’ll ask you later so much that I hate it”
“Hey, don’t forget 『Analysis』now”
While tapping lightly, the clan members of 『Dragon Fang』 are alert and try to strengthen their physical abilities and various resistances with enchant magic and grasp the status of Yuu and others with the 『Analysis』 skill.
“Nana is no good, so which one should I choose?”
In front of nine black slimes except Nana, Namari is worried while pointing at what to do.
“I’ve decided! I’ll use Hachi today!!”
A black slime called Hachi shakes the whole body to reject it.
“No!”
Hachi, unlike Nana, had a fluent language. Although it is a slime, you can see beast-like fangs in its mouth.
“Why!”
“Why do I have to do that? And my name isn’t strange like Hachi. What’s my name――what’s my name? Heehe~”
What’s wrong? Hachi laughs and jumps on the spot.
“It’s okay! Stupid Hachi. Then let’s do it”
Turned away from Hachi, Namari chooses the most familiar black slime――wicked beast Boramoburan. Then, as if she was waiting to be selected, Namari’s whole body is covered by the wicked beast Boramoburan. And the black slimes that arent selected are forcibly absorbed into the horns of Namari even though they resist.
“All right! Momo, can you do the setup?”
On Namari’s head who is covered with a black exoskeleton, Momo slammed Namari’s head, as if she was already ready.
