Lesson 11: Wet Clothes
April 28, 7442.
With my sword pointed at the guy closest to the store, I say.
"You're the only one who can talk, answer the question. What brings you to this store? If I'm honest with you, you're the only one I'll think about. But don't lie. I'll kill you as soon as I think I'm lying. Talk."
The guy with the sword is a 16-year-old Gnome guy 2 years older than me. With that being said, all the guys in Binsyle's this time are men. Hifu Mi no...... 14 people put in the begle b that I killed. Now there are 13 people and one body in the store. I heard that Begle's men were close to 20, so naturally it's not strange to have some women, but I thought the male/female ratio was about 9: 1 on its own. You seem to have a slightly higher ratio of women.
"Come on, don't kill me. Talk!"
When the man said so, he heard a voice from behind the store.
"Hey, Jones! You... Bullshit."
It was Begle A who called from the back of the store. He just shallowly slit his arm holding his nose with an 'air cutter'. When I glance at Begle A,
"You, for the second time since I told you not to talk. Next time I talk, I'll kill you. Good thing I'm busy right now."
So I turned to Norm's man again. And with a smiley face.
"I'm sorry, I got in the way. Don't worry, I won't let you get in the way anymore."
I said. Norm's man began to talk as he suppressed his nearly trembling voice.
"I just did what Begle's brother told me to do! It's true! Trust me!
"Oh, I believe you. I guess you just did what Begle's brother told you to do, didn't you? Say what you're told and why."
I said as I continued to smile.
"I've had to make money for the last two months or so, and I've been staring at this store. I was made to observe visitors and shops entering and leaving. It was decided that it was time to do it today. I was talking about grabbing the daughter of this store, enslaving her and selling her. The method is to…"
"How? Okay, don't worry about it, talk about it."
"If I harass my daughter and resist, someone gets hurt well. -Because of that." If you don't want me to sue you, give me the money. "
Heh, Claw's right. Claw's words were corroborated.
"Can you give me the money? How much?"
"Yes, 10 million Z."
That's impotent. There will be no amount you can't pay at all, but that amount is way off track due to an injury resisted by a woman's power. So, is it time for a debt statement?
"Hmm. Ten million Z. You, what do you think of that amount?
"Huh? Oh, no... expensive, I think..."
"Right. Well, no. So, you think you can pay 10 million z for that?
"I don't think so..."
"Yeah, yeah, what do you do when you demand it even though you think you can't pay it?
Ask with only a gloomy look.
"Oh, I was going to make it a debt because I wouldn't be able to pay it if it were this store... My brother says he wants me to sign a debt statement with the payment deadline by tomorrow morning... So I can't afford to pay anyway, so I think I'm about to drop selling my daughter as a slave..."
Um, you don't get the guidelines. I guess it's stupid because it's so stupid to be in a company with each other like this stupid regiment. I wonder if I missed the nomination. Well, okay. I know more or less what it is. I say with the same gloomy look.
"Well, you can sue you because you can't pay, what if they tell you?
"Ah, oh. I was going to come as many days until the store lost its roots. My brother said that if we were in there all the time, no other customers would come to the store... and then we'd lose our roots."
Wow, that's nasty. Morons don't leave any evidence. I'm even suspicious if it's a crime in the first place.
"Well, by the way, when your brother told you to do something like that to this store, nobody objected?
"Zach's brother was the first to disagree."
"Well, when's Zach?
No way.
"Ah, that's the first person you killed. He's dead there."
Norm's man pointed to Begle B. Heh. Well, I guess you didn't morally disagree. Maybe it's about risk and return. I don't care if you disagreed from a moral point of view. He's already dead, and even if he was only a good man, I would have killed him.
"Oh, this guy. So, when this guy disagreed, nobody was in tune? What about you? Tell the truth."
"Oh, oh. I didn't. I've done something similar before... and Begle's brother says he's okay..."
"Right, okay. Next question, then. What kind of harassment did you do to the store's daughter? Don't lie to me. There's some guy behind me who's been watching the whole thing, right?
It was time for nearly 10 wild horses to gather.
"Oh, that... touching my ass, hugging me, rubbing my milk from behind..."
I thought that might be the place.
"Well, who did it?
"Huh? No... all..."
Well, I guess so.
"All of them. Hey, you, what do you think? I want to be harassed by the daughter of a store that does business for real. Did you feel good?
I told him if he broke up with me any more.
……
"Well no. All right, you've spoken well. Enough, shut up for a while. Then next time, raise your hand, the one who wants to talk."
Hands raised simultaneously. Everyone but Begle A. Low loyalty. I look back and ask Claw.
"Which one do you want?
Claw suddenly seemed to be asked and face-to-face, he said, a little distracted.
"Oh, uh, well, then... anguard"
Called Anguard was a 25-year-old well-physique blonde Pu. He's the one who's halfway through the store and he's solidifying halfway through trying to look back while sitting in a chair.
"You're the Unguard. Well, here's your nomination for the corner. What are you gonna let me hear? Don't lie to me."
I know Anguard thought he was gonna ask me questions, he seemed somewhat panicked, but he opened his mouth.
"Oh, I really didn't like it either. I didn't want to do this! Believe me."
Ah.
"You're lying. I hate the ones who lie to me... too bad."
That's what I say. I slowly lift my left hand toward the unguard. It's just a threat. Everyone swallowed gokuri and spit.
"Oh, no, please don't! Because I'm telling the truth! Because I'm only telling the truth!
"Well, the guy in the back didn't listen to me, so I don't need him. He's hurt. Take care of yourself."
Again, I went back to smiling like a person. Anguard began to say, nodding over and over again.
"At first I thought I'd just enslave them and sell them off. Do it now and then. In fact, this store's daughter is a good woman. Neither do you, but I thought you could sell black-eyed hair because it's rare. I used to think he was just a little bit of an unusual kid, but a lot of guys were after him because he had suddenly become feminine in the last few years. You know what I mean? I know that wasn't a compliment, but I thought it would be nice to have a little fun before I sold it. My brother said he's still small in this store, but he also has a son, so grabbing a woman won't make him so resistant..."
Heh, did Marie have a brother? I didn't know that. So, where is he now?
I'll ask Marie's parents if I should bring the kids. I said it while watching my father go around the back of the store saying he was bringing him through the back door.
"Right. All right, that's enough. Next, it's you."
I pointed my sword at the guy next to Anguard, a 22-year-old Dwarf.
"Oops, Begle's brother invited me in, and I'm going in for the money... Sure, that girl has a neat face, and she's a little thin, but she's got a good nose. I'd love a slit eye or a little nose... I'm a dwarf, and I don't really like it, but, you know, I wish it was gold... and now I think I've done something wrong, it's true"
Who told you to praise Marie? I don't care about that.
"Ah, that. Enough is enough. So, hey, what about that purple-haired elf over there, you? You want to talk about something?
He's a 23-year-old elf and quite a man, but he's a man with a thin line. Even the most popular idols in Japan will be able to do it. I envy that face while it's same-sex. It would be hot. With that said, all the elves I know have a lot of beauty shapes. Why not?
"Ah, oh. Of course. I get paid at first, too, and my brother says, so don't think too deeply about it. I'm reflecting now. That girl, but I liked her lips. I couldn't stop feeling thin pink and glossy."
This one, too. I do think Marie and Claw look good there. It's like a half. Even on Earth, Asians seem to find it exotic when viewed from Western Europeans. I don't know, but is that enough to say?
I've never seen a beautiful mirror, so I don't know exactly, but my face looks half way too. Because I'm reborn in my new body, the spots I made on my temples when I was an old man in my last life are gone beautifully, and the black child in my jaw is gone. Well, black kids themselves are all over my body. The place is different.
Put aside the issue of personal preference, now, I don't think Marie or Claw are very comparable to Elves in terms of beauty in terms of my aesthetic sense, and there are quite a few beauties for ordinary Puppets and Subhumans other than Elves. Of course it's the opposite pole of beauty.
I've talked to Claw and Marie before, but we were convinced each other it wasn't beautiful or beautifully shaped otherwise. We did come to the conclusion that it was a half-like face with a slightly deeper carving than a pureblooded Japanese and a mixed Western European face, and we told each other that it seemed like it would be there if we went to Japan like this, but apart from the friendliness, it was never beautiful. At least we could tell as much as we looked at each other and thought we were "Japanese".
"Oh, that's enough. Okay. Next time, you."
I said, pointing my sword at the werewolf man in front of me.
"Oh, is that you? Oh, my God. I thought so. My hair was always wet and beautiful."
You too...
"Well, you're a good kid, and I honestly didn't see you as a woman."
"Enough. Is there anybody I can talk to that I want to hear? I think we should talk here. I don't care about my daughter now. How about you?
I'll point it at you with my sword again. Now he's a 27-year-old man of the Hagi tribe with a seemingly inconspicuous face.
"Oh, it's me. Right, first of all, can you do something about this ice? My legs are cold and my senses are about to go away."
"Hmm? Really? Let's do something about it, wait a minute."
Oh, I forgot about the ice. I lowered the temperature when I put my hand on the ice. Maybe it's about 20 degrees Celsius now. I tried my best for a minute and maybe lowered it by about 6°C.
"All right, that's it. Come on, talk."
"Huh? You're gonna let me out." I don't know why. "
The man must have given up being a shovon but had no choice, he opened his mouth.
"Last year, everyone here and the guy who isn't there because of Begle's brother's voice... a woman attacked a caravan of golf in all four. It must have been a lot of money, but we only got a share of the gold. I'm done paying taxes. That was a small caravan, but there must have been nearly 50 million Z in it all. I bet they split it more than half between Begle and Zach."
Oh, that's what I wanted to hear.
"Oh, yeah, so you, you mean you had a grudge against your brother?
Marie's father brought back a boy about 5 years old. Is that Joseph Binsuil? My brother looks asleep.
I asked again.
"Ah? Oh, to be honest, it wasn't funny. We did all the raids… I took more than half of the agari just by directing from behind."
Well, that's again.
"Well, then, you, you're not grateful to your brother, are you? Can you tell me that story again? If I talk properly, I'll think about you, too, okay?
Time goes by while I'm saying this. Ice temperatures are dropping regularly without draining. Of course you can talk while maintaining the ice normally, but it's a hassle. Yeah, I don't find out you're using magic because your hands don't glow for what you're keeping, but it's not easy to focus on both. I can, but I just won't. I'll tell you one last time, it's not easy for me to use magic normally. It's a very short time, but naturally I have to concentrate a lot. I don't want to use it because it's a hassle if it's possible.
Well, it's been a few dozen minutes since I let you wash away the rest of your sins like this? The Knights, taken by Marie, rushed in with a decoy knife. I revealed my identity and smashed all the guilt charges against these guys I just listened to when I asked them to confirm it with an open status. There is no evidence, but there is testimony. And I don't know until I don't touch which one of them touches the law, but I said it all. Then, when I got special information and tried to peek into this store, which was where I was going, Begle B suddenly tried to use some magic on me, so I reflexively killed him with offensive magic to protect myself. However, because of the strange condition of the store, I said that they were all restrained by ice pickling, and I asked them if they were guilty of anything to worry about and tightened it.
The captain of the Knights listened to me,
"Don't worry, Master Gried. The man who is ice-soaked there at the time he tries to raise his hand against you as a nobleman all over the city is a capital offence. Not to mention, it was sudden for no particular reason, right? A little counterattack, the boulder is Lord Gried's brother. Are you sure it was your sister...... oops excuse me, my sister, Sir Gried, was also given the knight's reign in the First Knights... No, no, we Webdos Knights can't sleep with our feet to Barkud either. I will also immediately confirm the testimony you have just heard."
"Really? That's good. Thank you very much for your job of policing Keel. Now, we're going to split each piece of ice."
"That's right, what's special information?
"I'll definitely talk about that later. Let's start with an investigation."
When I said that, I left only the foot of each of the bagels and erased all the ice. I had no choice but to keep the chair of the guy who sat in the chair. Then I went by the captain and talked.
"Now we can carry it out. Also, he and he, these three more, then those two, and then he should testify about the testimony. I also think we can get testimony from everyone on this occasion as a third party, and I know it would be better if they took testimony right away from Mr. and Mrs. Binsuil and Mr. Balladik, the victims of this case here."
"Sure, you are. Hey, 3rd Platoon, take testimony from those around you right away. First Platoon, get the suspects out of the store. Second Platoon is perimeter guard. Him."
Six men per platoon, 18 knights in total, scattered gently into the captain's words to get to each job. Ten minutes later, Begle's flavor was all lined up in the street with his legs iced, and he seemed to be able to take testimony from the wild horses and Mr. and Mrs. Binsuil. When I said testimony, I was just checking to see if there was any doubt about the charges I had smashed.
Afterwards, confirmation was obtained from one of the arranged bagels by the guy I listened to earlier. He seemed anxious, but when I snorted at him, he affirmed everything. Everything for which the confirmation of the testimony was taken, and all that was not, was also bitten by monkeys, both hands tied behind their backs. In time, one of the knights who was physically examining has taken two demon stones from Begle's pocket and a piece of paper to report to the captain somehow.
What is it? I asked Claw softly and he taught me in a "didn't even know that" attitude. In order to prevent counterfeiting in important documents such as borrowings, they mix the blood of the signatories with those powdered with demon stones and then thumbprint each other. They say this will make it an official document. No, I didn't know that because I'm a country guy. But I was certainly ashamed that I didn't even know how to make official documents for the sake of the aristocracy.
They're also going to prove that we have this paper and two demonic stones. Because of this, Demon Stone cannot be destroyed unless it takes extra strength. In that case, it won't be powdered just because it cracks. You need to rub two demon stones of the same value together to make them powder. Normally, they collect things of near value and release a little bit of magic with appropriate magic props that are somewhat more valuable (= weight) to make them exactly the same value and use them. Therefore, if the value of these two demonic stones that emerged from Begle's nostalgia is the same value, it is sufficient evidence of planned crime. Oh, they can tell right away if it's totally worth it by rubbing it together and easily powdering it.
They treat this as big evidence because it's impossible to carry a demon stone of equal value at all, even though it's not for special use. After all, the Demon Stone easily powdered. Begle A testified that she was "carrying it with her to make a statement of the deal in another store," but she missed it when she said it was' Roberick 'in that other store. Fucking idiot. Just fine. I hit the captain in the ear.
"Oh, about the special information earlier, I don't know if it's right to say, 'Roberick' proprietor, but my husband over there is between the kingdoms of Davas. I'll put out this coin and some sort of red cloth and tail it with the" It's from Lombert, "so you'd better catch it. This is the information I got from spying on a man named Hendell of Dorritt. I'm checking right back from Dorritt to Keel today. The delay in reporting was due to the confirmation of the information obtained at that time, so when I stopped by this store, it became such a commotion… So what I got was that a man named Begle was a day bus man."
Hendell, I sold you. Well, don't feel bad. You can think of something else. You're a benefactor too, aren't you glad you could help me? Die for me. Anyway, it seems the death penalty is unquestioned.
"Oh, is that sincere! Hey, Shruff! Come!"
The captain overheard calling one platoon captain. Finally,
"Go check with all platoons immediately. Look, at first, let me get my tail out by pretending to be between Dabus. As soon as you get your tail out, grab him and bring him in!
I looked very hard when I said that. The captain went on to tell everyone.
"I call a new witness. Sharon waits till then."
Oh, my God, I was expecting it, but there's not only police power, there's judicial power. Boulder feudal society. Oh, no, I wonder if the interstate jumps over normal judicial authority and has military jurisdiction? I don't really know if that's the case. I couldn't stand it because I was free and free, so I wanted to flaunt my nose, but I just rubbed my nose and stopped putting up with it.
Eventually the wild horse is talking.
Claw tells Marie what happened while she was away, and Marie and her parents seem relieved that the Knights have arrived and that there has been no significant damage to the store.
The knights watching Begle are poking at the people who are starting to move around.
Come on, the ice will be much warmer. Looks like we can move a little bit, but we won't be able to pull our legs out yet for the time being.
Twenty minutes later, the knights who were going to 'Roberick' returned. 'Roberick' 's father was brought in while the knights poked him small. My father was monkeyed and his hands were tied behind his back.
"Surely 'Roberick' 's husband was an intermediate. I got my tail out, so I gave him a signal and I snuck in and tied him up!
"Mm, well. Well done. So, did this guy give you Dabus's name?
"Yes, he did say the name of Dabus. Then, during the investigation phase, we have heard about Begur. Certainly Begle is an intermediate! He also said that one of those parties had helped Beguru work more than once!
"All right, I'll check. Take that monkey off."
When the captain said, one of the knights removed 'Roberick' 's father's monkey. Then my father said in a pitiful voice.
"Wow, I was just a liaison as Begle told me!! I can't believe it's an intermediate... Oh, you! We just met. Give me the coins, too, and tell me where the bagels are, okay? That's right, knight! This is the wrong guy!
My father said, staring at me. The captain,
"Hmm, I'll tell you something good. This Gried just came out of Barkud to Keel the other day and is now an adventurer. I found out about you from a man named Hendell during that job. So they went ahead with the mole, and this is how they gave us evidence of the mole."
"Become, Hendell... sagual... right. Damn it, you were the one who killed Saguar!
Oh, Nice Mistake! Mun, who was between the saguals, should have been reported dead about two years ago, so maybe he stepped on it. I guess this guy didn't know the cause of death. Then it's not his mistake. Wasn't Hendell the only one reporting "dead"? He's an idiot. I...
"Phew, it is also the duty of my clan, a nobleman who keeps the territory, to end the interstate!
said and misled.
"Shit! You cheated on me by pretending to be an intermediate!
Or my dad says, but I'm not dealing with him anymore. I tell the captain.
"We seem to have all the evidence. What will happen to your trial?
"Uhm, that's good enough, let the monkey bite!
When the captain instructed him to do so, the knight behind his father put on the monkey.
"Hey, bring me Begle"
When the captain said so, he pulled out his sword.
The knight held both sides, and from behind another knight put a sword on him, while the nabe guru came forward as he sat in his chair. The captain stares at the paled begle,
"I will say no in the name of the Knights of Webdos, the First Squadron Commander and Sir Gorful. I'm guilty of death on charges of espionage."
I snapped my neck with a sword without even asking if it was too soon. Yeah eh!? This is the trial. The wild horses are cheering. Marie and her mother heard a small "come" voice. And 'Roberick' 's father was similarly beheaded. That doesn't mean they both flew. They slit my throat. You can't say no to every bone in your neck with a cast sword, can you?
But the father of 'Roberick' is fine, but Begle A is not an intermediate. Close to complete wet clothing. Close, but the work of Begle B's interlocutors should have been helped somewhat... well, aren't we destined to be executed together? They did a lot of bad things when they left it behind.
"The key intermediaries have been disposed of! Later judgments will take place tomorrow at noon in front of the administration! Dismissed!"
The captain yells like that, "Grab them all and put them in jail! He says." I don't have a choice.
"Um, Sir Gorful, when I interrogated you earlier, right? I promised you instead of testifying. I'll think about it."
When I told him, a relief expression appeared on the faces of the witnesses who looked anxious.
"Mm, that's..."
"Oh, so, well, I thought about it a lot, but I thought it was too vicious, so I thought it would be better if we asked the Knights to judge us here"
Claw said "hiccup" or something in the back with a small voice. I hear you, you son of a bitch.
The color of despair floats all over the bagel. You can't help it. I didn't say a word about helping you or lightening your sins. I guess I don't have that kind of authority. I thought about it as promised, but I just thought it best to leave it to the Knights.
When the Knights pulled up, the wild horses scattered three ways too. The captain had given Marie's father several pieces of silver coins by saying it was the price for the chair. I'm contaminating the ground with a good amount. When I used water magic to wash away the blood of the executed bagels, I handed Marie two pieces of copper coin and ordered a beer.
There is no one in the store and some chairs are missing, so it looks like a mess. I guess the fact that you asked for a beer made me skinny. When everyone enters the store, they gather the remaining chairs at the empty table and sit down. Marie brought my beer so I thanked her and then drank it with one breath. I was thirsty.
Marie and her family, Claw, started saying thank you to me. That's okay. Thank you. It was a coincidence in a way.
When I heard the story, Claw was also trying hard to shelter Marie.
Marie said, "I was just a little relieved to think I wasn't the only one scared because I was watching from behind but Claw's leg was shaking. But I was still scared," he says. My father and mother were just scared and couldn't do anything in particular, but I'm glad Claw took refuge even if she was scared of herself.
Claw said that Marie was touched when she tried to carry food, so she even carried it or something. He was hung on his leg, he was tumbled, he was spit on, he was in a lot of terrible eyes.
The conversation proceeded, and he also held on to the arm of a sword that had only torn my magic arm and Begle's nose apart. I work out differently. My father, brother, and sister-in-law scattered me. Claw and others "Al's work is worth a thousand bucks. How did you know you were a crook?" or something like that. "My father also said in tune," That was really helpful. I overheard what they were talking about earlier, but I couldn't pay them very much if they asked for 10 million Z. You're a family benefactor, "he says. My mother also said," It's a ten-million-Z job. Thank you so much, "he says, bowing his head. Marie said in Marie," I was also prepared to think I couldn't do it anymore, thank you so much. I can't thank you enough, "he said.
Waha, tell me more.
"It really helped. I'd like to thank you for anything we can do." "No, seriously, thanks." Al, I'm so glad I didn't become a slave, thanks to you. "
Much of the booze came around while I was doing that. Every time I asked him for a drink, he told me to give him extra time, but he paid for everything properly. Yes, I haven't been properly thanked yet. I can't wait to be thankful for my luxury.
Well, I guess it's time.
"I understand how you feel about thanking me. Now, since this is the time, let me not hesitate to say it. I am an adventurer, as the captain introduced me earlier. I'm going to try the labyrinth that it's in Lombertia after a little work at Keel. But it's a rush, and so far, I don't have one of my people. If you really want to thank me, please Marie. Oh, as fellow adventurers, of course. Please don't make a weird mistake. Claw, too. You're not Marie's family, so you keep quiet. Do the adventurer with me. We'll split it up."
Dad opened his mouth pompously,
Your mother opened her eyes wide, even as she hid her pompous open mouth with her hands.
Marie turned pale,
Claw looked at me with an incredible face,
Joseph was resting easily on a chair lined up on the edge of the store.
"Earlier, you rated my behavior today as' 10 Million Z Works', right? Nothing. I'm not in trouble with gold, so I don't need any money. The sudden story won't even keep you organized. You can think about it overnight. So, tomorrow at noon, I'm going to go see what they have to do in front of the administration, so I'll get back to you."
I said, leaving the four of us in a grudge and just taking a seat.
On the road to the Vince Pavilion, you fell in a good way, and I was giggling. I didn't originally think of this, but I just came up with it because I'm asking you to thank me too enthusiastically. I don't think it's a little rough, but I really want to bring the reincarnated into my crew.
Well, Marie doesn't have any combat experience, so it'll be hard to think of her as a force right away. Claw seems to be able to use a little sword, but from what I've seen, he hasn't. I'd rather think about this one than Marie. So in the worst case scenario, if you get turned down by the grounding momentum, I don't think that's what you can do. Let's give those two up completely as something we didn't have any ties to then.
