Ee, Teni Shippai? Seikou?

It's been about half an hour since Yang Yi and I took the carriage.

That was the only carriage owned by the Count's family, which did not shake and kept the temperature and humidity comfortable.

It felt like I was staying in a fancy cottage there and I didn't think I was in a carriage running all over town very much.

"Well, I guess it's time"

Yaichi shrugged as he looked out the carriage window.

Whether it's Yangichi or Alana, it's pretty oblivious to the geography of the Wang capital, and it's almost impossible to grasp our current location just by the view from the window.

It is also a world without smartphones or GPS.

"How much longer?

"Straight down the road, we'll be at the Count Colbourne mansion in less than five minutes."

But Yaichi had [Appraisal +], and with it he could know exactly where he was, as well as the location of his destination, the Count Colbourne Mansion, up to the route there and the time needed.

"Senior, are you really motivated?

"Naturally."

When I was about to arrive at my destination, the two of you started that conversation.

The original voice of your podium cannot be reached in the car, which has been granted a sound insulation effect by magic.

However, Yaichi was also able to find out in real time by using [Appraisal +].

"Does it work?

"The reward came earlier, but it means we're all set. As far as the plan goes, there's no point in failing."

"But you failed last time, didn't you?

"That's because a guy named Yoichi got in the way. If you lock yourself up at the top of the two and turn down relief from the outside, there's no doubt about success. Don't worry about it."

"... after all, why don't you stop? And the captain."

"I'm sick and tired of working under an incompetent old man whose only serious thing is the handle!! Look! If this plan works, you get a lot of money! The Count remembers better and treats better now, doesn't he?

"That's right..."

"Even you, you have money, right? You abandon my sister? Ahhh!?"

"Ugh..."

While doing so, the carriage passed its destination.

"I see you tried to stop the younger one for once."

Yaichi explained the situation when the conversation at your desk ended in a paragraph.

"But what about my sister?

"Leonard-kun's sister is currently in detention after being captured at the Beauty Bureau. Failure to pay for the conversation by the due date seems to cause the slave to fall."

"Beauty Bureau? Is that unsaveable or something..."

"He was a serious and good kid in the beginning. But he got caught by a tough guy, and then he made a lot of noise."

Leonard's sister caught the guy who seemed to have the money, as usual, but his opponent that day was a tough aristocratic bong.

He was my boyfriend who jumped into the room to threaten me, but was stepped in by an escort who was holding him back in the next room and was jumped in the neck on the spot.

My sister was already a habitual criminal at this time, and she was reaching for the investigation.

There are circumstances like that, and Bonbon is of course not guilty.

My sister was plucked with high talking money.

And for some reason, Bonbon liked her and put out the condition that she would be exempt from paying the talk money by becoming a domestic slave.

"What's that domestic slave?

"The unrestricted one, of course"

Unrestricted, Alana's expression slightly clouds when she hears.

Just because you're a slave doesn't mean your husband can treat you as he pleases.

Domestic slaves in this country, for example, are slaves who, as their name suggests, are solely responsible for household chores.

No imitation is allowed to make that domestic slave work where it has nothing to do with housework, for example, following him into a coal mine or putting him on a fishing boat.

Furthermore, slaves are often subject to labour restrictions. Restrictions vary for the same domestic slave, let them clean but not cook, let them clean up a little, but don't let them carry heavy baggage, etc.

Of course, it is forbidden to compel sexual relations even though the person does not want them.

That is how the Kingdom determines the classification of slaves and puts finer limits on how much they observe their human rights.

And the absence of labor restrictions means that you may have some heavy labor if you are involved in household chores, and sexual service is included in the chores.

"To save my sister, my sweet brother put us in a trap."

"Hmm... you don't seem to have room for sympathy"

"Oh, by the way, Knoppo's just a scumbag who wants more fun and more money and status, so you don't have to worry about that one either"

"Right. The Colbournes don't have eyes for hiring them as knights."

"Only the outside side seems nice. You're here, that kind of thing?

Kenneth, the long-sleeved knight, was a typical authoritarian: charming to those in sight and insulting those in sight.

He was being disrespectful to Alana because he looked downward at the adventurer.

If every general knight behaves like that to highly-ranked adventurers, it would have been a problem, but there was a special trend in the King's Capital where kingdom aristocrats had a slight advantage over the Adventurer's Guild. There are not many adventurers against Kenneth with the back shield of the Count family, at least not in this king's capital.

Not zero, of course, but he didn't have much to do with adventurers in the first place, so it hasn't been a problem, at least until now.

"Looks like we're here."

The view of the windows that had been flowing until earlier had stopped.

The carriage to which the magic of inertial control had been granted had stopped without the passengers noticing it at all.

"Get off."

Encouraged by Kenneth, Alana and Yaichi got off the carriage.

It was a residential neighborhood with few people.

"Get in the building there"

Ahead of what was indicated was a large mansion there, but the garden was not well maintained, etc., and did not look like a very senior aristocratic mansion.

"Does the Earl of Colbourne have such a miserable place as a mansion?

"No. This place is away. I don't know how the treasonous daughter and the Count can meet in honor."

"I'm not a traitor. He's just being suspected."

"Hmm. I don't care what you guys think. It's something similar in the world. Don't make a mess of it. Just get in there."

"Hey, senior! Whatever it is, it's rude."

In the meantime Alana and Kenneth, Leonard interrupts.

"Um, Lord Alana, and then Lord Yoichi. The exterior is a little blurry, because inside you are properly prepared to welcome it. I hope you understand that this is also the case."

That's what Leonard said to fix it, but he didn't show any attitude of sorry, back to back with the content of the words.

"Don't you have any guidance?

"I'm sorry. We need to keep guard here... Besides, I haven't cracked enough people up to pick you up. It's better to have fewer people involved."

"Hmm, right"

"Sa, Lord Yoichi, please. The Count is waiting for you inside."

I suppose you thought it would frighten you a little if you told him that you were keeping the senior aristocrats waiting.

But Yaichi stood before Leonard to change his expression in particular, and on the contrary, he became a little more frightened.

"Um, what...?

"That's okay, you can keep going"

"So many times from earlier..."

"You and I can go into the mansion alone without a guide or a reception, right?

"Well, I guess we should just go."

Kenneth answered Yangichi's query immediately, and Leonard wandered for a moment and turned his face against him.

But he soon turns back to Yangichi.

"I don't mind. We've been talking about you two coming here in advance."

And Leonard answered as he looked into Yangichi's eyes.

Apparently, he's decided to be ready in him.

"Oh well. Well, let's go."

"Uhm."

Yaichi and Alana looked at each other and nodded, beginning to walk towards the entrance to the lonely mansion.

There was an evil grin in Kenneth's mouth when he saw it, and Leonard sighed like a ho.

○ ● ○ ●

Outside the mansion, Kenneth and Leonard sat on your podium watching the front door.

"Did it work?

"You'll be fine. When the first one starts, I promise I'll get paid, so maybe it's time."

Patrick, who found out Alana was coming to King's Capital this time, also planned to capture him.

At that time, we first prepared a mansion full of traps and a dozen adventurers to intercept Yangyi.

The trap, which incorporates a scroll of weakening, forces visitors to undergo significant capacity downs at the entrance.

That's where the adventurers are supposed to hit.

detain or kill Yaichi and gang-rape Alana.

Where the first one had begun to rape, there was supposed to be a reward for the two of them.

"What do we do? You want us to mix it up?

"haha...... no, I don't mind"

Since the incident when his sister was caught at the Beauty Bureau, Leonard had come to avoid doing that.

"Well, I guess I'll let the carriage go for a while"

Kenneth, on the other hand, looks like he's going to have it mixed up.

"But the Count has a good hobby, too. They're going to show my brother how Alana can do everything to all sorts of men."

"Oh, really..."

Leonard looked bitter when he thought if his sister caught the same eye.

While this is happening, the front door opens again.

"Oh, are you here?"

"... seniors, wait!

Leonard stops Kenneth trying to get up and get off the platform.

"Isn't that... a princess knight?

"What?"

One of the two walking through the rough all-you-can-have garden was indeed Alana.

And if you look further, you will soon find that it is also Yaichi who is next to it.

"Oh, no..."

In the meantime when the two of them were stunned, Yaichi and Alana returned to the vicinity of the carriage.

"That was a pretty messy treat. And, unfortunately, Lord Patrick wasn't there."

"Stupid! Why are you all safe?"

"Hmm, that means you're still complicit."

That was something that we knew beforehand in [Appraisal +], but Alana nodded heavily that there was a word out of his mouth that could also be taken as a confession.

"Oh no... I heard the trap would seal the princess knight's movements, so I..."

"So you even knew the details of the plan? That's even more sinful."

"Ah... no..."

To wander off, Alana shrugged her shoulders in exaggeration and showed them.

"No way, you broke through the trap!?

The more the general adventurer took this trap, the less he could stand, the less his physical function would decline, and the more magic would have been sealed so that he would not even be able to practice his magic gratefully.

The magic needed to activate the trap was supplied from the demonic stones installed, and there was enough available to completely disable the two adventurers.

If the Demon Stone shows up at a fully consumed time, the adventurers who were ambushing will either not be affected by it or will be minimized.

Yaichi had spotted all the plans, including the trap, in [Appraisal +].

"It was a little heavy for you, wasn't it?

"Well, the adventurer who was there was able to control it in seconds."

I just don't know. You two dared to get trapped.

Regardless of the ordinary person, they have extraordinary physical abilities and inexhaustible magic, and can reduce the effects of traps by [healthy body α/β].

[Appraisal] that it made little sense where I received it, because I thought it would alert the adventurers who were more ambushed if I dared to trap them.

"Totally...... did you seriously think you could do something about us with that much trap and power?

"Ugh, shut up! At least you... if only the princess knight could do something about it... Should I still have narrowed the subject down to one princess knight......!

"It makes little sense where the effect has doubled, and even if I can't move, Lord Yoichi could have controlled it with one hand, to that extent."

"Lie to me! The princess knight's hipster wipes have so much strength!!"

Looking at Kenneth, who threw up so much, Yaichi and Alana looked at each other and almost simultaneously leaked a bitter laugh.

"But as I said at the Central Terminal, we're part of a party that left the Demon Gang Run (Stampede) and the Demon Raid, right? It would be better if I could wear even one scratch to that extent."

"That was just over-reported..."

"The other way around. To avoid confusion, the results are rather underreported"

"Oh no..."

Leonard, who stood beside Kenneth, bowed his head in momentum.

"Also, I'm sorry!! Now it's time to send it to the Count properly, so forgive me for what?"

"We're not going to Patrick."

"Huh...?

In response to Alana, Leonard looked up with a pocan look.

"Of course I'll have the carriage out, but the destination is the Sallis' mansion"

"Oh, that's..."

"Come on, Lord Yoichi. Shall we take it a little slower in the carriage?"

"Whoa."

"Wait for me - heh...!

It was Leonard trying to stop the two of them trying to get in the carriage, but Alana stares at me and leaks a small scream.

"Again, the destination is the residence of the Sallis family. You know what happens when the carriage stops, if you're somewhere else or one of them is missing?

"Huh... ah..."

Good to see you.

Alana went into the car before Leonard responded, and Yaichi called out only one voice to follow.
