Outaishihi ni Nante Naritakunai!!
Shadows approaching black with him
"... His Highness Friedrich. May I have a moment?"
"Theon. What's up?
It was Scion, who is now staying in the Royal Castle as a diner, who ended his visit this morning and stopped me trying to get back to the office.
Wearing black based noble clothing as if it were a biological nobleman, Theon clouded his eyes behind his glasses when he came to my side and whispered.
"Previously... I said I would report any discomfort. Speaking of which... do you understand?"
uncomfortable.
I heard the words and turned my gaze silently. Theon nods with a hard look.
"... let's hear the story in the office. You don't mind if I have Alec present, do you?
"Yes, I'm at your discretion, Your Highness."
Take the agreed Scion and return to the office.
But uncomfortable?
Sometimes Sahaja's movements have been lively these days, and I was wondering if there was anything diving inside the royal castle. Sahaja's Assassin's Guild is excellent at craftsmanship. Even when looking at other countries, their abilities are somewhat demonstrated, diving in at some point, and if they realize it, they are taking information from within... Oh my god, so often.
I was hoping that Scion, the ex-military, would spot me if there was anything in his sober brain, but let's just say, I still seem to have found something.
You should be able to make a fair and correct decision using a third party rather than a complete internal human being. It was Zion's hiring on the idea but he was right.
"Oh, tired, Fried. Have you had enough of today's sightseeing... what happened with the nanaogi?
"They have a report for what they were asking him to do. I want you to listen to me too. Please be present."
…… Okay. "
It was Alec who looked surprised when he saw Theon, but he squeezed his face tight and nodded when he sensed the general area with my voice.
Move toward the couch, not the butler's desk, and look at Scion's face.
"Get started."
"I understand. … I was asked by His Royal Highness Friedrich to find out if there was any discomfort - in other words, a Sahaja spy in it."
First of all, I guess I started talking about it from the background because it also combines explanations to Alec.
When me and Alec nodded, Theon exhaled one thing and said:
"Let me conclude. In this castle, I found a Sahaja spy. That's not alone either. Multiple people."
"You think you're a spy? There's no report up here, is there?
Alec reacted before me.
Alec - rather than the Vivoir family has its own institution named Nemesis. Alec used them, and that's what I've been researching this Fafnir castle for quite some time, but nothing came from him.
That was the same for me and I was surprised that I didn't speak to my voice. Turn your gaze to Zion to make sure.
"I'm sorry," Shion shook his head loosely, continuing the conversation.
"He's probably a member of the Assassin Alliance of Sahaja, but not an assassin personnel. The so-called type that specializes only in diving into enemy countries. Sahaja has that kind of presence, I hear when I was in Tarim."
I know that exists, too.
Years...... if you do poorly, it takes decades to dive into another country and exist only to send information. They are not assassins, but because they are similarly trained, they are difficult to catch at times of need. Everybody hurts themselves quickly, even if they catch them. They have no hesitation at all, so much so that they wonder if they are being brainwashed.
"... Are you a former Tarim warrior even if he rots? But you noticed something I couldn't even look into, Nanaogi."
Sion loosened his expression slightly when Alec sent his praise in the shaky half.
"Theon, that's fine. Dear Alexei, they took the utmost care not to be suspected of working in the same way at Fafnir Castle. I can't help but notice. I noticed simply because I was an outside person. Now I'm just a diner. I guess I just didn't think I was exploring them like that. Even if you hide your behavior well, if you keep an eye on it, you'll know about the unnatural. In that sense, they couldn't pay the same attention to the outside world."
All the names Zion gave him were things he didn't know.
Those engaged in the lower work of the royal castle.
There are not hundreds of things that work underneath. Naturally, there's no way I or Alec can remember all of that, and I don't find it suspicious from what I've seen. And because they exist as a matter of course, they weren't what they knew where and what they were being asked.
Totally, it was a good dive.
Alec is also roaring with regret.
"Anyway, noble people don't even know the faces and names of the people who work downstairs. That neighborhood soon replaces humans too. I'm not suspicious."
"I guess that's how they do it. I looked into their identities, their background, their referrals, but they were amazingly normal. Too normal... to make me wonder the other way around."
"Scion......"
Sion's observational eye surprised me that that was why it was suspicious.
"But from time to time they made strange moves. Sneaking up on a slice of a letter so no one notices... sneaking eyes and ear-piercing something."
"... you were simply talking to your lover or with a letter. Can't you think about that?"
Alec's doubts were natural, but Zion denied "no".
"It can't be. As you can see, Alexei, that's not a face that talks about love."
"... I see. I'm sorry I doubted you."
"No, because every time you say something that bothers me, it helps me too."
Alec nodded at Zion's words, turning to me.
"I won't let you like me any more. Fried, we're gonna get them. Details follow. Nice!"
"... Dear Alexei. Please calm down. I'm afraid they're not here anymore."
Of course, when I tried to reply, Theon's words echoed. Staring at Zion with Alec, he was laughing like trouble.
"It was at this time that I was supposed to talk to you about it, too. It was obvious that they were suspicious, but they didn't grasp a clear piece of evidence. So I was watching to see if I could get my tail out...... this morning. Everyone I've just spoken to has quit Royal Castle and left."
"What?
Those who were gathering information will disappear in unison. That means we don't need that anymore.
And at the same time, it meant that Sahaja was going to make some kind of move.
"... sounds like you should think I'm gonna set you up in a few days"
When I told him with certainty, Alec looked bitter.
"Seriously. Now it's just before your wedding, and the whole country is in a celebratory mood. Everybody's standing up... and they're messengers from abroad, right? What are you doing in such a situation?"
"Anything. That would be fine and plunging, even if it were war. That's a country called Sahaja. You know that, too."
"That's... ha. If that happens, my dad's going to run out of bees..."
I had a headache, and Alec, who started holding his forehead, let go, and I told Theon.
"Thanks. Thanks to you."
Definitely information I couldn't grasp here. Thanking him for delivering more results than expected, Theon said as he put his hands together in front of his chest.
"No. Above all, if it helped. Neither can I. I won't be eating free meals forever. Lena was taking care of herself, and it was hard not to give back anything."
To a serious word, cheeks loose. After all, he is a hard man to get.
I truly thought my decision to welcome you back then was the right one.
