Isekai Ryouridou

"Now let's move on to the next inquisition"

That said, Tal-on pointed his gaze to the left.

Sitting there are Barsha and Zida.

"Barsha of Masala. It is your testimony that the guilt of Cycleus, the former contemporary lord of the Count Turan family, and his real brother, Silel, has been established."

"Oh, because a man named Silhouel was a tenacious man who brought mischief to my partner."

"It's your partner, the party leader of the bandits, the Red Beard Party, isn't it? From what I hear, the man was in the hands of the Genos militia led by Silhouel and was mutilated."

"I see you are. I didn't check it with these eyes."

"So let's just say you had a lot of grudges against a man named Silhouel."

Barsha sighed as she splashed her brown hair.

"Now you're talking about me falling for Silhouette? Well, that's a companion's vendetta. But Gollum also received treasures from the nobles. Even if it was a big lie to say that Banaam's mission killed all the humans in the syndicate who were headed to Sims, the sin of just being slashed in the neck has multiplied. I'm not going to have rotten sexual roots to resent."

"Hmm. With you, I guess it was part of that bandit group?

"Oh yeah," Barsha shrugged her shoulder as Dreg snapped his hateful mouth.

"That's why I came out to this Genos, ready to be beheaded. So if you want to defame the Gollum, it's cheap. If you still want to snap my neck, you won't get away with it."

"Well, do you mean to give that neck?

"Oh. It was the Marquis of Genos who gave me amnesty. If the Marquis revokes it, he can't turn against me."

In Barsha's expression, there was no stray.

However, by the way, Zida is burning her yellowish eyes as she bites off her tight lips.

Tall on spoke with a smile so that he could fool it.

"I see you've missed the point. The only question I would like to ask in this inquiry is about the Count Turan family."

"Hmm. What more do you want to hear?

"Was a person named Silhouel really a sinner? Was it a real event that you brought it to the Red Beard Party to attack the Chamber of Commerce?

"That's what we're talking about. There was a scratch on his face that was cut into angry gollum."

"So did Silel plead guilty to his sins?

"I guess I've been shooting arrows with a rash because I admitted it. I'm not supposed to have to ask you anything about that, am I?

Balsha looked a lot fed up and did her gaze at the Melfrieds.

Melfried was there on the spot, and Malstein came aboard shortly after the disturbance.

"Indeed, both Cycleus and Silel's names were to be captured for attempting to murder Lord Melfried of the Marquis of Genos as well.... but only Lord Melfried, your parents and your children, the people by the woods, and Kamua-Josh should have been there, right?

"So all of them just mixed their backs? If you say that, there's nothing we can talk about."

After that, Barsha laughed.

"Besides, there must have been another one on the spot, a nobleman. I forgot my name, but Camua-Josh should have taken the Banaam nobleman. If I were you, I wouldn't have any reason to put my shoulders in the Marquis de Genos or the people by the woods."

It was about Wellhide, the young lord of the aristocracy who I miss a little.

Indeed, he was present at the showdown.

"If our testimony is questionable, why don't you ask that nobleman? You almost got killed together, so you won't forget what happened."

"... Yeah, of course, I'm also a messenger to Banaam. Sooner or later, the report will be delivered."

Was this much of an objection anticipated, Tall On smiling with plenty of room.

Then Talon moved his gaze toward Zida, who was burning his eyes like a beast in Balsha's.

"I hear you broke into the castle town without a pass to save Asta from being locked away at Count Turan's house, Zida in Masala."

Zida nodded silently.

Nor does he seem to have offended that disgusting attitude, and Tall On is smiling "I see".

"But a few days ago, I heard you raided people by the woods, including Asta. Why did you want to help save Asta?

"... I assumed that the people by the woods were the enemies of my father Gollum. But now that I know it's a misunderstanding, I just wanted to help you once to connect the sins of turning your sword on you."

"Hmm. So who the hell was your father's vendetta?

"What I found out. The nobles of Count Turan's house, who have sinned not against his father Gollum."

"So who was it that taught you that?

Zida held her mouth for a while before eventually abandoning it abominably.

"That's Ay-Fa and Asta at Fa's house. But I didn't just swallow those words..."

"Yeah, it's already here. Let me ask you one last question."

Gently whispering Zida's objections, Taruon turned to Barsha.

"How could you, who fought against your family and were pardoned for your sins of the past, have stayed in a settlement by the woods without returning to your hometown of Masala? Whose will was it, and what decision was it?

"I'm the one who decided that. I didn't feel comfortable going back to Masala because my story about the survival of the Red Beard Party spread throughout the kingdom."

"Why is that?

Barsha returns a grin that doesn't even seem funny to Tal-on, who persistently asks.

"Don't get angry, I hope you ask, but some rough people in Masala hate the nobility. So if I'm Gollum's wife, and Zida's a Gollum kid is exposed, that's what I might be treated like. That's why I didn't feel like going home until it was almost cold."

"Well, that's again..."

"Besides, I'm back in my hometown, and I don't have one of my relatives. So I figured Zida would be a better hunter to stay by this Morga forest. There are plenty of hunters here who want to set an example. If you'll excuse me, I want to take care of you for a few more years."

"I see," Tal-on nodded with a smile.

It's hard to speculate on the inside, whether you were convinced or not.

"In the meantime, your interrogation is more than that. Now it's your turn."

Tall on gaze tilted to the right.

Sitting there are the parents and children of Michelle and Mim.

"Michelle of Turan, I hear you've just defied Cycleus and lost your way of life as a cook."

Michelle nodded silently.

Mim is anxiously comparing his father to the aristocrat as he puts his fingertips together under his chest.

"After Cycleus lost his leg, you moved from Turan to a settlement by the woods. How the hell did this happen?

"... I was at Turan's house and was attacked by a robber. I thought my daughter would be in danger as well, and I just sweetened it to the favor of the people by the woods."

"I see. So how did you end up connecting with the people by the woods? It seems to me that you didn't have a chance to go to the lodging town or the woodland settlement when you were working on charcoal grills in Turan."

"... the falsehood on this occasion is regarded as treason."

Michelle took a small breath and then looked back at the tall on with her bottom glowing eyes.

"It was a man named Schmiral there who engaged me and the people by the woods. The people of the woods seemed to behave with Count Turan, so if the Count was doing anything wrong, he wanted them to tell the people of the woods."

"Well... I see you had such a history"

Tal-on smiled satisfactorily, now shifting his gaze to Schmiral.

"So why did you wish that on Michelle, Schmiral?

"Yes. Me, Accommodation Town, I stayed, so Asta, I'm going to tie the edge. And the certainty with Count Turan's family, we're supposed to know. I didn't know what it was about, but the power of Asta wanted to be."

"Hmm... I hear you were originally in business with Count Turan's house"

"Yes. Sim's ingredients, Sim's knife, they were for sale. At the time, Sims' ingredients, merchants for sale, all of them, Cycleus, deals, there must have been."

"And yet why have you put your shoulders in the people of the woods?

Schmiral tilted his ankle at his usual rate.

"Asta, the people by the woods, they were all right in heart, clean, I thought. The right person, suffering, crazy, I thought. Is that power, I want to be, I hope, strange?

"So you can lose an important business partner," he said?

"Yes. Cycleus, if you're a bad guy, I don't want to do business, I thought. Pass, loss, unfortunately, Sim's merchandise, the person you want, and a lot more. Cycleus, Losing, Important, None"

That was indeed a Schmiral word.

When Tall On cuts the word "I see," he raises his voice like Dreg was waiting for him.

"But you have just put your shoulders in the people by the woods, or you have finally chosen the path of living by the woods until you abandon God. That's not normal."

"Yes. A rare story, I think"

"Does it subside with the words" rare, etc. "? Did you really switch God from Sims to Selva in the first place?

"Yes. The King's capital, the cathedral in Castle Town, the ritual of transferring God, I did. Sworn, will it be necessary?

As Dreg giggled spirally and snapped his jaw, Schmiral stood up and let him state his sworn words.

"I, Shmiral, am the Son of Western God, I swear"

He poses like grabbing his heart with his left arm and his right arm is spread wide aside. It is a ritual of oath to the four great gods: if you spit out false words here, they will crush your soul after death.

Schmiral quietly lowered his hand and sat down again.

"Hmm... so he wants you to dump Sims because you've seen his daughter by the woods."

"Yes, and the people by the woods, living, beautiful, I thought. So, Sims, the decision to throw it away, it was done."

"What's beautiful? How can you live in a hunter's colony when you've lived as Sims' merchant?

"I'm hunting, working, learning. Immature, but hounds, helped."

"Oh, I hear you brought something called a hound to a woodland settlement. Besides, it was a hound I could buy in Alglad, the king's capital."

To Tal-on's words, Schmiral nods yes.

"Me, as a hunter, strength, not enough. Therefore, the power of the hound, it was necessary, I thought. Chieftain Donda-Lou, me, my family by the woods, to be, to forgive me. Happiness, I think."

"... by the way, do you have any involvement with the Chamber of Commerce called" Black Windcut Wings "?

"No." Black Windcut Wings, "famous, so name, I know, but AC, no"

"Really? He also said that he was the leader of the Black Wind Cut Feather."

So once silence came.

With the exception of Mim and Zida, this would have led to one person being questioned.

But most of them are just stories that are already known. Speaking of new stories, it was supposed to only mean that there was a connection between Schmiral and Michel at best.

"... Speaking of which, I recently went on a tour of Turan"

and the tall on speaks casually.

"There, a thing called a stone kiln was built. I hear you've been guided in how to make that, Michele of Turan."

"... oh yeah"

"And I hear that your daughter, along with the people by the woods, participated in a gathering of cooks from the castle town. It seems that you, banished from Castle Town, are seizing new wealth and honor by destroying Count Turan's house."

Mim changed her complexion and tried to say something.

But Tal-on raises his hand to make that statement stop.

"Speaking of which, I hear it was the people by the woods who advised the people of the north to have a more decent meal. Accepting the prophecy, we hear that the Marquis of Genos allowed the people of the North to build stone kilns."

After all, those stories are also outrageous.

Tal-on put both elbows on the table and combined his broken fingertips in front of his laughing mouth.

"Stick around, that's not a blameworthy story in itself. In other territories, there are places that deal more with the people of the north. If we can only tie ourselves up as slaves and make them work for the kingdom, no matter how we treat them, it's a lord's freedom."

…………

"It's just... it still feels like Genos has changed a lot in the past year or less. And behind all of those stories, there's the presence of people by the woods."

"... Genos changed greatly because of the revelation of the sins of the Count Turan and the Sung families. The people of the woods were deeply involved in this matter, so nothing seems surprising."

To the words of Ai-Fa, Tal 'on said, "Is it?," he narrowed his eyes.

"It seems unnatural to me, too. Until then, the Count Turan family, which was so powerful that it was comparable to the Marquis of Genos, had lost its legs and, not to say in its place, the people by the woods had come to benefit from it in a variety of ways. You used to be poorer than anyone else in Genos, but now it's time to sell food and meat in town and get rich enough to buy out a bunch of expensive hounds."

"That's the wrong thing to do?

"No, just until I felt it seemed too radical a change"

Ai-Fa shook her head gently before looking at Tal-on once again.

"After all, you seem to think that we took possession of the wealth of the Count Turan family with the Marquis Genos, etc. I repeat, we have only uncovered the sins of the wicked."

"Yes. The people by the woods seem to have a real temper. The Chiefs, you and the toddlers of last night seem to be pure, uncharted people."

"Hmm. That's like a free-flowing people"

While scrubbing the glass, Dreg turns away.

Tal-on said, "Yes," and flushed it.

"Words are bad, but it doesn't seem like you'd come up with a conspiracy you got into that far or try to execute it. It's just... it's plain, but therefore, is it possible to get caught up in a conspiracy?

"Into a conspiracy, get involved?

"Yes, in a conspiracy to shatter Count Turan's family,"

Ey-Fa frowned so as to catch his inner frustration.

"Cycleus had pleaded guilty to his sins. There are many other signs. How can uncovering that sin be a conspiracy?

"Yeah, the predecessors of Count Turan's family may indeed have been working their sins. However, it is a definite story that the Count Turan family was blind to the Marquis Genos family. And by letting the Earls of Turan lose their legs, the Marquis of Genos had no control over the rest of the Earls of Dalaim and Saturas. This is something we can't overlook."

I hear that the three Earls were originally created to restrain only the Marquis Genos from taking power into their hands. It was Camuer-Josh and Zashma who taught me that, but as far as the Talons were concerned, it seemed to be true.

"The Marquis of Genos seems to be plotting to pave the way by the woods and connect him stronger with Sims. We have also heard that it was Sim's chamber of commerce called The Black Windcut Feather that advanced it to the Marquis of Genos. And what has empowered the Marquis Genos is the people by the woods who draw Sims' blood - once the hand tags have been put in place so far, you can still not help but question the thoughts of the Marquis Genos and Sims"

"Is that a story about Genos plotting independence, just like a country called the Grand Duchy of Zerado? That's what we're talking about."

"Yes, but it seems that your efforts have consolidated the ground."

That's how Tal-on's eyes came back to me from Ai-Fa.

"Asta, aren't you really Sim's people, too?

"No, that's never the case"

"Is it? But you have glossy black hair and black eyes, like the people of the east. Only the colour of the skin is the people of the west, but if you think of it as a mix of the west and east, it's not surprising."

It was a complete proposition.

I try to calm down while I breathe.

"But I couldn't hear Sim. I'm confused by some circumstance, and I think that even if it was actually the birth of this continent, it would have been the people of the west, not the people of the east"

"There is no place for us to know whether it is true or not. But since the young man is so masterful in the West, it may be too early to say no to Sims being born."

I breathed relief.

But the pursuit of Tal-on did not end there.

"But your words about visiting from outside the continent are still hard to believe, too. You were originally a people of the west - and you were hired by the Marquis of Genos?

"Hired by the Marquis of Genos? I'm sorry. I'm not sure what the word means..."

"So you're asking if you're a spy, hired to soften the people of the woods. When you think about it, it seems like it fits a lot, Asta."

Still, I didn't understand a single word of Talon.

No, has my head refused to understand? That was much more than just now.

"Behind the fluctuations that have been going on since last year, all feel the presence of the people by the woods. That is what I said earlier. But to be precise, it's you and Camua-Josh who feel the strongest presence, Asta."

That being said, Tal-on smiled with a grin.

"Aren't you a being prepared by the Marquis of Genos to take control of the people by the woods? Marquis Genos sent you to a forest settlement in order to soften up the forest people who were obnoxious to the nobility - wasn't that the beginning in the first place?
