Otherworld Nation Founding Chronicles

Episode 161: Arson Case

A new moon night ...

Two mercenaries were walking on Lezard.

After a military coup, the number of lookouts is more than three times normal.

The air is tense.

"Oh, it's a hassle. You can even drink alcohol."

The large man sighed reluctantly.

The petite man hits it.

"Let's drink Rosaisu's spirit"

"Well, even a little alcohol can make you drunk ... but the trade will stop?"

The price of distilled wine from Rossais continued to soar.

Although trade has not been officially stopped, large merchants who had previously traded with the kingdom of Rossais have been arrested and trade has begun to stagnate.

Furthermore, isn't the kingdom of Lezad and King Rosais a diplomatic relation? The rumor that continues to spread, and a foreign merchant who listens to it is buying up spirits.

"Oh, did you get the wrong one?"

"No way it's going to happen"

The two sigh.

They are mercenaries hired by anti-Rosaith lawmakers.

I work hard because I was hired for money.

Even work that doesn't fit your wishes.

The important thing about work and spirits is work.

The two are always saying bad things about their employers, so they don't regret from the bottom of their hearts.

"Actually, I get married after this job is over."

"..."

"Hey, are you listening?"

The large man looks back and sees the small man walking one step behind.

The man was falling.

"……e?"

"Please rest assured, I just stunned you"

Something gets stuck in a man's throat.

The man's neck was tightened by something invisible.

"!?!?! ??"

A few seconds later, the man let go of consciousness.

"It looks like Alice has taken care of me."

A woman checks the brewery from the roof where no one is watching.

This is where the two men who were strangled by Alice were originally supposed to come.

The brewery here is protected by twelve mercenaries on a two-hour shift.

Therefore, it is unlikely that there would normally be no mercenaries to protect the brewery.

… But no mercenaries are here.

It's because it's down on the roadside.

The mercenary who was in front has already left.

Mercenaries perform their duties as long as they are paid, but they do nothing other than their duties.

The concept of overtime work does not exist among them.

After all, a mercenary.

"Now……"

The woman opens the brewery door.

Inside there were a large number of sake barrels.

Distilled liquor imported from the country of King Rossais.

He slept here until the price soared.

The woman sprayed the oil and set it on fire.

The fire ignites the liquor one after another and becomes a great flame.

"By the way, what you must not forget ..."

The woman puts a lot of poppy grass on the fire and casts magic.

The flame extinguished in an instant.

However, the fire was not extinguished.

It just disappeared.

"The concealable time is 30 minutes. Well ... Is everyone else advancing?"

The woman hurriedly left, saying so.

"Operation completed!"

"Similarly, the arson to the brewery is over."

"The arson to the house of the first class citizen who is away is over."

"The target arson fire is over."

"I'm done arson as well.

Soyoung, who was in charge of the arson unit, worked on his magicians.

The outline of this operation is as follows.

First, Alice invades the city and finds out the location of the warehouse, the patrol route and time of the soldier.

Then infiltrate the magicians of the king's kingdom at midnight.

Alice decides when to take the lookout and stuns or kills the soldier.

Even if a replacement mercenary does not arrive, watchmen will adhere to the contract, opening some security holes.

Set an arson in the gap.

Pops the fire and casts magic on it, making the flame invisible.

Of course you will know if you get closer ...

Only watchmen mercenaries are wandering around this time.

And it stretches to the road that was supposed to watch the place.

By the time they regain their consciousness and arrive at work, they will have just unraveled the spells and can see the buildings that have blamed.

"Our role is over .... Let's get out. Alice, can you please?"

"I see. Soyong-san."

Alice says so and carries Soyeon.

At a stretch, he ran on the roof and jumped over the castle wall using thread as a craftsman.

Just as Alice escapes the fifth sorcerer out of the wall ...

The city of Lezad has begun to be noisy.

"Well ... it's the beginning of my work"

Alice licked her tongue.

"It's a fire! It's a fire!"

"What was the lookout doing?"

"Why nobody noticed in the first place!"

"What is the criminal? Catch the criminal !!"

"The stupid person! It is the first decision to put out the fire. Turn it off before you can't get it!"

"Run away! I'll get caught in the fire! I'll hurt!"

"That's it! I don't run in the dark!"

"Two of them are crazy! I can't pass! My furniture will burn out if I keep this!"

"Hey! You! Put your luggage! It is in the way of evacuation!"

The city of Lezad was panicking.

To that extent, fire is a terrible disaster.

In fact, only the building at the fire and its surroundings are burning.

It is a fire that can be dealt with sufficiently.

However, it happened in five places at the same time, and at midnight, causing confusion.

"What are you doing!!!"

One man put together a confused site.

He is now the anti-Rosaic central figure controlling the parliament of Lezard.

"Settle down! Evacuate the girls and boys. Bring the water out of the wells quickly! Rag the mercenaries. Destroy the building before the fire spread!"

The man skips instructions one after another and manages the chaos at the site.

"Chairman. That's a big fuss."

Alexios rushed to the scene and talked to the man.

The man looks back on Alexios.

"Alexios? I want you to help."

"I thought she would have said that, and brought the slaves .... By the way, can I raid the mercenaries? I heard that they were also collecting troops from prisons. I don't think it's possible that someone is helping to jailbreak. "

But the chair laughed it away.

"I'm too worried. I have a minimum of soldiers in the prison .... If anyone is trying to get you out of jailbreak, how do you get away from this rezado? There is "

Escape is impossible because of the walls.

It is the first decision to put out the fire.

If left alone, the fire will swallow the lezard.

"But it doesn't seem like a coincidence. If this were any kind of conspiracy ..."

"Huh ... you're worried, too. Okay. I'll deposit five cavalry, please make sure."

Meanwhile, Alice, who killed all jailmen and guards immediately, freed sinners one after another.

"Good? Go straight north from here, turn right at the third corner, then turn left at the second corner, turn right at the seventh corner, then go straight You should see the gates. Now the fires are cramped. With this number of people you can surely escape. "

The sinners thank Alice and jump out with joy.

The destination is, of course, the northern gate that Alice taught.

After releasing almost all the sinners, Alice finally destroyed the pro-Rosaic prison.

"I am His Majesty's vassal. Please calm down, do not escape yet."

Opening prisons one after another, Alice releases his members and his family.

A total of seven pro-Rosais members. A total of thirty people, including family members.

All liberation is over.

"Thank you ... Alice, was that?"

Ains thanked Alice for breaking the chain.

Ains heard a little about Alice, but had no direct acquaintance.

He looked down at the bottom of his heart as a Germanic barbarian, but is now a lifesaver.

It was a heartfelt thanks.

"Don't worry yet ... I'm heading west to the gates now. The sinners rushed to the northern gates, which should have alerted me to the north."

There are four gates in Lezad.

East, west, north and south.

The prison is located to the northwest, and the nearest gate is to the north.

And the second closest gate is west.

Alice used the sinners sensibly.

"But ... but security is still strict. Are you okay?"

Alice laughs at Ains's question.

"It's okay. At least thirty soldiers are on the lookout ... it's night now. It's my sole position."

"The north gate is noisy. What's going on?"

"It seems that the sinners have escaped from this arson and are rushing. It seems that twenty captains rushed to cheer."

"Seriously? Then there are only fifteen people here. Are you okay?"

"It's okay. Most of the sinners seem to be heading north, and even if they come here a little bit!"

The man blew out of his mouth and fell to the ground.

"What? What's going on ..."

"You don't need to know that."

Alice tightened the man's neck with a thread from behind.

A thread as hard as steel can squeeze and cut a man's neck.

"Well, this is fifteen.

Alice puts his hand on the bar at the vacant castle gate.

Alice lifted a bar that was too heavy for a large number of people to remove.

"Everyone, it seems a little difficult to open the gate alone, please help me."

"... a little bit ..."

With a bitter smile, the Ains and Alice pushed the gate with Alice.

The gate opened slowly, mainly due to Alice's power.

"Let's run away. A cavalry is waiting a little far away. If you can get away there, you can rest assured."

Thus, the first phase of the operation was successful.
