The Other Side of the Last Boss

127. How to clear your suspicions

A mysterious purple liquid came out of Euphoria's bag.

"I remember putting such things in………………"

Euphiria frowns.

But you obviously seem to have a bad feeling about it.

"Ooh, ooh. Isn't this some guy called Evidence?

Oswald scoffs.

You're sure it's poison.

"We were at the funeral. In the meantime, someone has decided to let you in."

"People often pass near this room. Some soldiers are guarding the corridor. If there's anything suspicious, you'll soon find out."

"Is there no such person?

"Oops."

Oswald kicked his ass.

"I mean, did you kill my uncle?

Isaac looked surprised.

"We have no point in doing that."

Fiona denies it.

"With this poison, you can't escape."

It will look like Oswald won proudly.

"But you are Britton's messengers. Arrests and executions are another problem."

So…… would be the pattern in which the demand begins.

"Let's have a moment"

I stop it from happening.

"Is that you again? Now what?"

Oswald got grumpy.

"How do you know this purple liquid is poison?

"Han."

Oswald laughs with his nose.

"What is this colored thing other than poison?"

"It's not like people drink."

The priest followed.

"Even chemicals and dyes will make purple liquids possible."

"Kutara, don't get away with it. You can try anything. Hey, you try it."

Oswald refers to a single female maid.

"Hi-good. Is it me?"

The maid shuddered her body.

"Hey. Stop it!

Euphiria stops.

"Hmm. Because you tried to get away with it."

"Fine. That purple liquid is poison, so let's talk about it."

I grabbed a vial containing a dragon killer.

"Hmm. Does that mean that if you don't drink this and die, it's not poison?

"Of course."

I snort that Oswald deserves it.

I took the word.

I open the lid of the vial and pour everything down my throat.

Very little flavor. It is the same as water.

"Ahhh. What are you doing!?

Euphoria's face turns blue.

"You've lost your mind!

Oswald is also circling his eyes.

Fiona is the only one looking at me with no expression.

Anyone else thinks I'm gonna blow a bubble and die soon.

But I was flat.

I know it's a dragon killer, but the poison doesn't work on me.

"Ki, are you okay?

Oswald looks at me suspiciously.

"Yes. Now it's good to know that the liquid in this vial is not poisonous, right?

I magically wipe out the vial.

If someone else loses the bottle, they could die.

Subtle evidence has been destroyed.

"Kuh. There's only one."

Oswald regrets it.

He doesn't seem to be convinced yet, "What's going on?" he snaps.

"Eh...... So what was that?

Euphiria asked with relief.

"That's just colored water. It's got a little bit of flavor on it, I guess."

"Such an idiot...... That must be a dragon killer for sure!

"Hmm. I wonder why I can say it all"

I see a priest with a rough voice.

"That color is not the color of the dye, etc. It's the color of a dragon killer. Definitely!"

"Dragon killers should be prohibited from making or possessing. Why have you ever seen it?

"Ah. That's..."

The priest wandered.

"Maybe you let him in?

"Oh, that can't be right. Are you saying that some people saw me enter this room?

"Hmm. What do you think?

Ask the soldier Oswald was watching this hallway.

"I haven't seen the Priest"

Soldiers answer.

"You will, you will"

The priest smiles.

"Did you attend the funeral?

When I ask for confirmation, the priest thinks for a moment.

I'm pretty sure there's something going on around here.

"Of course."

"What? Weren't you in the infirmary?

A soldier snapped his neck.

"There was one, but when my hands were free, I went to the funeral."

If I stayed with someone in the infirmary the whole time, that would prove I wasn't the killer.

But he must have gone outside for some reason.

I ask.

"Leaving work and attending a funeral."

"That's right. I wish His Majesty luck."

"That means no one's going to prove you've been at work the whole time."

"What..."

"By the way, can you use metastatic magic?

The priest did not answer, but was clear from his attitude.

"What are the safeguards that seal the teleport in this room?

"None"

Oswald answers briefly.

Sometimes in a world with magic, I was watching outside a room, or a locked chamber, that kind of thing doesn't work.

"Sounds like a bad room for a room to welcome the royalty of Britton."

Ever since I was first appreciated, I've always thought it was a qualitative room.

Probably trouble in a room with the effect of sealing the metastasis.

"They say the room has been changed since the first appointment."

Isaac looked at the priest with suspicion.

"Who instructed you to do that?

"That's a little…………………"

Isaac answered my question with regret.

Everyone sees the priest.

"Chi, no. Not me!

In other words, you may call it evidence.

If you keep asking, you will be bolted out on your own.

That's what I thought, but Oswald slowly approached the priest without a sound.

And flash your sword.

And the priest lifted up his blood, and fell.

"Huh."

Oswald looked down at the priest, who had become a torso with his trashy eyes.

Did you just cut it off in anger, or did you hide the evidence?

I'm not sure.

"Anyway, can I just say that this proves our innocence?"

With this, Leo will be able to establish himself as the fourth faction in the current three-ways succession war.

Oswald speaks bitterly.

I'm a jerk.

Honestly, the suspicion of possession of the poison just cleared up.

It seems that Oswald believed that we were innocent, just as the poison had been removed.

"He snuck a vial in His Highness's luggage."

Isaac says for confirmation.

"For what?

Euphiria asks.

"Now......? Uncle, you must have been involved in the assassination."

Isaac doesn't seem to understand either.

But regardless of the executor, it would be Oswald or Isaac who put his hands around the back.

This attitude could also be an act.

"Anyway, we'll be excused."

I have no brother-in-law to reveal the truth of the case.

If our suspicion of ourselves is cleared, that is enough.

If I tell you so, Isaac in particular panics.

"Please wait. I can't apologize for staying like this, so I want to apologize."

"I appreciate it, but I don't know what kind of suspicion you'll get this time if you stay longer."

I politely say no.

After seeing Euphiria and Fiona transferred, they similarly returned to Warrick, the royal castle of the Kingdom of Britons, on the transfer.
