Souen no historia

Episode 18 Moving Deacon

The fact that Yoyo was taken away by someone came to my attention ten minutes after Yoyo was grabbed by Fem.

Those in the Mansion were stepping into Yoyo's study, headed by Soji. When I thought it was strange that Sauji visited the room because there was no reply from Yoyo from inside, he said that it was a barren shell and that he did not know where he had gone, even if he visited the maids.

I searched all over the Mansion, but I couldn't find Yoyo, and Soji, who thought this was strange, finally came back to the study.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please stay away."

Saudi said so, and the maids left the door open. Sausage moves his right hand toward the ground.

"Show the signs, blue flame"

A blue flame appeared from Sawge's right hand, covering the room. Apart from that, it changes to a wall-like shape in front of the saw.

"Er... what's going on?

"Shut up and watch."

Ninte watched from outside the door and spoke as if she had doubts about Soji's behavior, but other maids noticed it.

Then something was reflected in a blue flame that looked like a wall.

"Yo, yo, yo!

Ninte couldn't help but scream. It's definitely Yoyo who works in the study. However, Ninte received attention for shouting out loud again.

After a while, two mysterious people appeared in front of Yoyo, who was working. And Yoyo was laid, and taken away.

Sausage sighs lightly when the blue flame is extinguished.

"Apparently, enemies use nasty magic."

I see ~, I don't know how rare the magic of being transparent can be.

Kaina responded to Saudi's words.

"Besides, they seem to be from the Southern Continent. Dress Auger was indeed the name of the nobleman of the [Holy Land of Lavach]."

I remember you very well ~

"Yeah, I used to go south for personal use, and I wanted to find out as many names of powerful nobles as I could, because some nobles had names like that."

"Hmm, but why did the royal nobleman kill Yoyo? Did you buy anything against it?

"No, as far as I know, I don't have anything to do with [Holy Nation of Lavach]. It's a famous automated doll sanctuary, but there's nothing about automated dolls in your work...."

Yoyo's work includes schedule management, and Soji knows everything. Sauge thinks there should have been nothing in it that would have bought the other person's repulsion.

"Well, as far as the other person's expression was concerned, it didn't feel like revenge or anything."

"That's right. Maybe someone is hiring me to do the work...."

"What's wrong?

"Ah, no...."

I wonder if Soji really has the idea that someone is hiring him.

(The opponent is a kingdom nobleman. Speaking of dress augers, it is famous for producing a number of excellent doll artists and stylists. Does someone hire such a person...?

As I saw it, the girl named Dress Auger created an atmosphere of pride. Besides, I'm still like a child, so I don't think I have an acceptable hold even if someone uses it. But there is no doubt that Yoyo was captured. Anyway, finding Yoyo's whereabouts was more important now than what he was aiming for.

At that time, the maid came into the room with great momentum. Hold a piece of paper in that hand.

I kept the identity of Yoyo Yatsuki and Crowtail. If you want it back, come to the church in [Juncak's Hill], which is no longer in use, alone with Saudi Alcasa. Date and time is × × ×

Soji wonders at what is written on paper.

"Hmm? What is this? What do you want?"

As Kaina suspects, there is nothing on this paper that would naturally be required for a kidnapping, such as gold and goods.

What it says is that Saudi will come alone and keep the date and time. If you make a mistake, Yoyo's life will not be guaranteed.

What's the target? If you can think about it, I'm not the one who's buying grudges, am I...?

That would make sense. By grabbing Yoyo and holding him hostage, he restricts the movement of Sauji and makes a real mistake to Sauji. Yoyo suggests that it may have been used as a good food for the body.

(A grudge... that kind of memories... ahh, it was full of them)

If you say it clearly and buy grudges, there are more sausages than yoyo. Doing the back job is like that. Even when I was traveling with Balmunk, I defeated those who did evil as if they were playing on the side of justice.

And for Yoyo's sake, beating up the kidnappers, neutralizing the hostiles, and destroying the demons, that's what actually happened. I have a past in which I have experienced many things that I have no choice but to be avenged.

(Ha, this is going to be another whisper from Miss Yoyo)

Saudge, who thought he had put the Lord in danger by his own fault, gave his head a crunch.

"I'll take this paper. There are a few things I'd like to check out."

That said, I put the paper in my pocket. And when Kaina turned her gaze,

"Mom, I'm going now."

"Ha ~, be careful and go."

"Eh!? Aren't you going to join us?

Ninte shouted at Kaina's light words and deeds.

"Yeah, because the paper says you should come alone with the sawdust."

"But...."

"It's okay, don't worry about my sausage. Isn't that right, Soji?

Yeah, I'll be back by dinner.

"... Saudi-sama"

I gently placed my hand on Ninte's head, looking up worriedly, and stroked slowly. "Fufu..." Ninte leaked her voice, feeling pleasant.

"Don't worry. I am the butler of the young lady. I'll be back for sure. Well, when you come back, the lady may be hungry, so please prepare a meal."

"Ah, hah, yes!

Looking at Ninte smiling happily, Kaina smiled.

"Oh, my son, even a naughty little girl... guilty."

"... Mom, I don't know what you're talking about, but if I don't get the job I gave you this morning until I get back, my salary will be cut by 30% this month."

"Come on, everybody! Let's get back to work!

Kaina walks out of the room with everyone in good health. Soji, who was left alone, smiled, but instantly broke his eyes like a hunter catching his prey.

(I'll make you regret what you did to your daughter.)

[Junkak Hill]. This is where Yoyo's Mansion is located to the west from the city. There is nothing on one side of the grasslands, and there are pods and ruins near the cliffs that show an accent.

The ruins were once churches, but have been abandoned for decades since the bandits attacked them. Of course, there is no maintenance at all, so the walls are entangled with pigeons and holes.

When I entered, the bench I was attending was destroyed everywhere. The altar on the doorstep of the room has also been destroyed, but only the table in front of it remains clean.

And at that table, Yoyo Eight Steps Crowtail was deprived of his limbs and put to sleep.

"... uhh"

Occasionally incoming gap winds stroke your cheeks, and Yoyo's beautiful blonde hair shakes slightly.

"... here..."

The view that entered Yoyo's eyes when he opened his eyes was an unfamiliar ceiling.

"You're up late, Miss Crowtail?

When I heard that voice, I immediately remembered what was happening to me, Yoyo. And, fufu, when you breathe lightly,

"I wish I could have herbal tea."

"Hee, I can't believe I just got so young and became the crowtail master when I woke up."

It was Fem D. Dress Auger, who grabbed Yoyo, who sat on the chair where he was attending. When Yoyo realizes that his physical freedom does not work, he moves only his face and checks his surroundings.

"Oh, I wonder if there's a maid I can count on?

"Fufu, do you care?

"Yes, I do. Anyway, it's..."
