Middle-aged Adventurer Kein’s Good Deed

Meanwhile, around that time, Sword Princess Anastrea and Witch Maya were helping Count Randall, who was locked behind the Lords' Hall.

In Kuko Village, at the stage where I heard the tax had doubled, I was immediately investigating it because I thought it was suspicious.

"All you have to do is defeat this evil lord!

Maya stops in a hurry, as the sword princess, who knocked down the hand of the family decree Forth, who had kept the Count in seclusion, said something horrible.

"Wow! Why does that happen? Explain it properly. Count Randall is a good man, a victim, and he says it again and again!

"Hmm. Really? That's boring."

"What's so boring?"

"I heard rumors in the tavern that Kane was the hidden son of a great aristocrat, so I thought if I decided that it was the blood of the lord of this territory and defeated the bad lord, it would be just fine."

Then it is more of a mere seizure than a bandit exorcism.

Count Randall, lying on the hospital bed, is also turning bright blue wondering if he will be killed if he thinks he was helped, because the sword princess says something outrageous.

Maya sighs deeply, for Christ's sake.

"Can Princess Anna keep her mouth shut for a moment because we can't talk about it? Count Randall, I'm sorry to surprise you. We're the S-rank party, The Rose Maidens Blooming at Heights."

"Oh, you're the heroes of that fatherland! We apologize for the inconvenience caused by our idiot son."

Count Randall, who ruled this northern land peacefully over the years and was also praised as a famous man, was weak in his appearance when he lay old and sick.

Still, I try to kneel on the floor coughing with my go-between.

Maya comforted the old Count by gently rubbing his back.

"Please, keep your head up. It was a man named Vols in the family order who plotted the conspiracy, and the Count didn't do anything wrong."

"No, it was our stupid son who hired Forth in. My son's lapse is the same with our own lapse. As your princess said, I don't think there's a way to be beheaded like an impudent self."

"Anyway, don't stop them. Can you come with me?"

As for Maya, I also find it tempting to move Count Randall in the hospital bed, but the army of the Count moved by Custer as a lord's deputy cannot be stopped without the Count himself.

If I stayed like this, I even feared it would be a war.

If it's about one count, Maya can carry it with floating magic, even from bed to bed.

"Of course it is. My son Custer may be trying to kill his brother Kidd. We have to stop it soon..."

When we reached the city of Ern, the armies of Count Randall had already surrounded the city.

Staring at the city's militia.

"Guys, stop! I am Count Randall! Drop your weapons and surrender."

Even with a faint voice, put up your best, Count Randall stops the army.

Since the majority of the troops were knights serving the counts and the inhabitants forcibly conscripted by Custer and others, they immediately abandoned their weapons.

"Oh, have you taken the Count's form yet?"

What appeared there was the Fouls of the Family Decree and the Custer of the Lords' Representation, who fled the church and tried to move Count Randall's army.

"Forth, my father's here. What are you gonna do!

One unexpected thing after another, Custer is turning bright blue.

There, the sword princess pulls out the shining divine sword, the Undying Blade (Durandana), and screams.

"Custer of the Randall family as well as the family ordinance Forth. Close the Earl of Randall, monopolize the politics of Randall territory, and succeed or lose because of the crime of hurting the people!

By the time I got here, Maya had finally made a decent move thanks to her explaining to Princess Anna that her mouth was sour.

But towards it Vols laughs high.

"Totally scary ladies. I'm not going. Everlasting darkness, gather unto me!

As Forth sang his magic, around Forth and Custer was covered in darkness.

"What, this stuff!

The sword princess jumps up, and the divine sword roars and strikes.

For the sword genius, the sword princess, it's nothing like being deprived of her sight by darkness.

But there was no response.

"Hey Maya, I don't have any enemies!

"Dark magic seems to have been done."

Family Order Vols and Custer, the son of the lord, fled with metamagic to the gap that took the sight of the sword princess with dark magic.

Perhaps he was carefully prepared in case he ran away.

The magic of metastasis is quite superior magic, even if we had prepared metastasis magic formations and other procedures beforehand.

There's no way a high-ranking magician could be in a city well like this.

"Isn't it cowardly, the magic of instant travel?

Instead, it's fuel-efficient magic that uses a lot of mana.

Maya, the all-powerful witch, can't use it either, but she doesn't use it unless there's something wrong with it.

"Definitely. The Vols are the executives of the Demon King and"

"... why does that happen?

To Mayan thought, the sword princess does not understand.

"Princess Anna, did you teach me before to see how the Demon King's executives might move? That Vols has unusual magic, so he's a high-ranking demon who's turned into a human being."

One of the eight demon generals of the Demon King's Army should have been Forneus, a demon general who turns into a human being and falls into a hallucination of people's hearts.

Maya believes that this roundabout M.O. must have been his work.

Metastatic magic that uses a lot of mana can be used many times, even by demons with more magic than humans.

That's self-explanatory, but I haven't passed it on to Princess Sword.

"Oh, my God, if the Demon King's executives are attacking us, Kane is in danger!

"Then I told Sephilia to stay with Kane's old man to keep him guarded. The old man has a demon, and if he's a demon, he'll be fine."

"Please, protect my son in the city church."

Count Randall begs the Mayas, kneeling.

Custer, the lord's son, says he may try to kill his brother Kidd in a church orphanage.

"I can't do this. Maya, let's get to Kane!

"Oh no. It's not necessarily like the enemy is going to pull back like this, and try to head straight to church."

For Maya, who is trying to take down the Demon King by grasping his footsteps, from an executive of the Demon King's Army, I'd rather not have him back down.

Prepared to intercept the enemy, Sword Princess Anastrea and Witch Maya decided to head to the church where Kane is with Count Randall.
