The Tale of the Teapot Hero’s Revenge

14 Surprise, Waiting Trap

It's about 9: 00 in the morning, I guess.

It should be time.

We have now left the King's Capital for a bit to the east and are ambushing on the road leading to the hunting ground.

To Nair's carriage, to launch a raid.

My outfit includes mufflers on long sleeves and black stockings on shorts.

I'm not wearing a hat, a woman at a glance, an outfit that you can tell is me.

For God's sake, I have to let you know that the brave man is alive and joining the resistance.

If the attempt to kill me becomes public (oh snack), I can do damage to Burtoghu.

That's why he tried to kill me in secret until he was unscrupulous enough to cook every village.

(This is a chance. I need to appeal to my presence firmly)

There are thirty other raiding members.

It's a face I barely know, but two of them, Reid, the leader's best friend, and his most trusted ancient ginseng uncle, Cain, have been introduced beforehand.

The liquor store, Joana, and the leader are the familiar ones.

Everyone but me hides their faces with a cloth or something.

Because I have a normal life, and if I find out my face, it's tough.

They're pushing me not to even call my name.

Everyone hides in the shadows of trees and bushes, each with a weapon, waiting still with their breath killed.

The leader saw a duplicity of swords and swordbreakers, and Mr. Reid had a magic wand.

How long will it be?

From the side of the king's capital, he heard the footsteps of the horse and the wheels of the carriage, and the footsteps of the soldiers of the escort.

(... I'm here!

Tension runs on everyone.

The operation is simple.

Everyone jumps out at the signal of the leader, to pinch from both sides.

I picked up Nair while confused by an ambush and appealed to my presence.

Then he who comes up against among the soldiers of the escort kills, and he who flees does not chase.

The king told me I was alive and I had to burn the village down and let him go home alive.

(So, if you fail, withdraw quickly. Threats are good enough.)

Well, more or less like that.

Well, the carriage is slowly approaching.

I think the number of escorts is about fifteen.

The carriage is about the size of a dozen people, but what's inside is expected to be Nair and his two squire.

The battle power difference is about double, this doesn't mean you're going to fail, does it?

Finally, the carriage was hiding in front of us.

A leader sends a signal with his right hand up.

At that moment,

"Whoa whoa whoa!!!

"Nair, be ready!!!

"Of my country, my family hatred no no no no no no!!!

Faces of the resistance stormed as they shouted at each other.

I lose, too, and go straight in for the carriage, but...

"Here we are, as we know!

"Don't break formation! Intercept!"

... Ah, this is not a good idea.

Enemy, it feels like I knew you weren't surprised at all.

Turn the leader around.

I knew you were blue.

This is a bad pattern.

"Everybody, back off! Retreat, the raid is aborted!

The leader raised his voice and skipped the instructions, but it's too late.

About ten people who left it to momentum to cut ahead entered a state of engagement with the soldiers.

And from inside the carriage.

"Hihi, are these the guys? Sounds delicious."

A man with a knife in both hands came out, with a bad posture.

From behind him, about ten knights also jump out.

Nair is not on board.

There's no place for a nervous looking middle-aged man.

This raid was completely read.

It was us who got into the trap.

"Enjoy yourself."

The man who let it go thrust through the resistance members fighting soldiers at a rate a bit unthinkable to humans.

What did you do, I didn't see you at all?

"Hihi, what the hell is this?"

Lick the peroli and the knife.

The blade has red blood on it.

"Guh!"

"Yikes!"

"Gee!"

Three.

In an instant, the three men were defeated with a deep hand.

"It's been a long time since I've had a fancy job. Oh, no one's got more teeth?

"Koitsu --"

Not good if you get rammed like this.

I tried to deal with him, then.

"Your opponent is me, you traitor!

A red-haired female knight turned to me and slashed me with a knight's sword in his hand.

Pull out the hips swordbreaker and try to take it at the peak, though.

Gaggin...... ugh!

The bump wasn't the gizzard part.

Flat, nothing.

I figured out what I was after, and I took control of the swinging trajectory.

"My name is Elia Ulysses! Serving Princess Perne, knight of the Kingsguard! No, I'm gonna push it!

"Oh really, I'm Killier. Unconsciously, I'm a brave man."

"What... Huh?

Oh, surprise.

My face and name, that works pretty well.

Oh, my God, if he's a Kingsguard knight, why does he come out here like this, Wake up. I don't know.

Protect the princess in the castle.

The man who quit, the leader and Mr. Reid are dealing with each other.

You just have to believe it's okay, right here.

"Lord Brave, to the Resistance...? I can't believe it, but its face and name are..."

"Dear brave man, they almost killed me because of my ability to act like shit. To your king! Because if you don't die, the next brave man won't show up!

"No way......!

"No way. Besides, if the ministers and the people find out what they're trying to kill, they'll have trouble, so make it look like a burglar. The village was burned and my family was killed!!

"... oh, so, so why did you go into the resistance!

"It's easy, for revenge. I have to kill your king, you're not avenging me. Resistance is a match of interest because it's worth using for my position as a brave man."

Yes, I'm done telling you everything.

You spoke as loudly as you could, so you sound like the knights around you, too.

There seems to be quite a few knights wandering around.

Well, where you surprised me, you accomplished my purpose, too.

Big success on this operation, let's get out of here.

"Revenge......, what would it be to do that"

"... what?

What? What?

"It only invites further destruction and chaos to mischief, such as vengeance! More than trying to use your life for that --"

"... Hey, what are you talking about? A windy mouthful I know from above, sermon?

"No, what I'm trying to say--"

"You don't know what it's like when someone you care about is killed? Hey, don't know what I'm talking about."

Let me withdraw the foreword.

Let's get out of here.

I'll correct it.

"Just kidding."

Let's kill him, this guy.

If you're pushing each other with a sword forever, it's just fine.

Grab your right hand off the pattern and grab it on your face.

"--Huh!?

That thing flew up behind me and got distanced.

My right hand is empty.

I wonder if I felt like something was going to suck.

Or did you freak out at me?

"The chills (okan) now, what the hell..."

"You have important people, too. Was that Princess Perne you were telling me about, that person important?

"... you're important. than my life."

"Well, then kill that princess, and you'll know how I feel,"

"... Huh! You..., the princess will touch one finger!

Oh, I'm mad.

I wonder if you know how I feel for a second.

I just hinted that I'd kill my loved ones. This.

After all, what he's saying is a clean goto with no contents, just the top.

Still, let the princess touch one finger, huh?

If it's a girl, it's a line I'd like to be told.

"Don't worry, it's none of your business if the princess dies or lives."

I try to receive the sword that has been waved down, again at the peak.

Kid...... ugh!

Removed again, the sword is around the roots of his body.

Maybe my usage is also bad.

Can't you just wait for me to change track?

"It doesn't matter, what do you mean...!

"It means the way it is. You're gonna die here, and it doesn't matter what happens after you die."
