The Tale of the Teapot Hero’s Revenge

17 His face is frozen, and his heart is ——

Brigadier General Nair Deltar.

This guy was an active general in the war of aggression against the surrounding countries, and he seems to have been a pretty dirty one.

Pretending to retreat and attack, that would be part of the military technique.

Raise the white flag to alarm and attack, shield local civilians to hesitate to attack, whatever you want to do.

Burtoghu's attitude is that he doesn't care about the rest as long as he gets results, so he kept doing that.

So, I was buying more grudges, and this guy's connected to a slave trader.

This is the one who divides the flow of gold when a beautiful woman leaked from the sorting of burtogues is sold off as a slave.

That's why this guy was abundantly resented by the resistance, which most people from invaded countries occupy.

But even the Burtoghuas have no more conclusive evidence, and unlimited grays close to Cro.

I couldn't go kill him in any more danger than there was no definitive evidence.

So this time, when the evidence came out, they targeted me first.

Even with me, such scumbags, I feel comfortable because I can kill them unwittingly.

Me and Joana are now trying to sneak into the Deltar Mansion, all over the darkness of the night.

The way is, usually over the wall, through the back door.

I just didn't think I could do it, but I was really caught off guard.

Zero motivation even if only a few are available.

I don't think I really thought you'd be setting up an assassination within that day.

Or maybe Nair's people are devastated and nobody is seriously protecting them.

(But I wonder if the soldier who consolidates the back entrance is asleep)

Easy to touch thanks to.

Simply touching his head lightly, his brain blew up without making a sound and he died instantly.

Kill two soldiers with one fingertip and go inside the mansion.

As it was, he passed down the attic from the empty room to the top of Nair's own room.

"Kirie, are you ready?

"Always ok"

Exchange words in a whisper.

Two soldiers of the escort entered the room as Nair headed towards the bathroom connected to his room.

If you want to kill me, now is the time.

I took off the ceiling plate and they both jumped at the same time.

Rich peculiar fuzzy carpets, useful for turning off the sound of landings.

"Hey, what's up?"

Before they make a scene, touch the head of one of the soldiers and bounce his brain off.

The other, Joana held her mouth down and scratched her throat out.

"That's it," he said. I'm in this room, so Kirie -- "

"I don't need to be told. You take a bath with a girl at the end of the day, so you'll never forget it."

If Joana's role is to gather information, my role is to assassinate.

I started checking the contents of my desk, leaving Joana behind, in front of the bathroom door.

I don't think I heard anything over here, so I'm slamming my nose.

"Uncle, shall I flush your back?

"Hey, what...?

I made a sweet voice and tried to speak up.

The upset and a little sketchy minded voice returns.

My thoughts for now are disgusting, that's all.

Don't hesitate to open the door and break into the bathroom.

I'm taking a big bubble bath. A middle-aged man who stopped looking at my face is being taken away.

I knelt at the end of the hot tub and put my fingertips on the hot water.

"How about some hot water? Isn't it a little wet?

"Ki, Ki, are you kidding, Yu, Brave..."

"Hey, I'm asking if it's not warm. I'd rather be hotter. About this, for example."

Inject magic into the hot water.

Uncle, I think I finally figured out what I'm gonna do, but it's too late.

Boom, boom, boom, boom!

"Ahhhhhhh!

Bath water began to boil.

The blue Nair face quickly turns bright red.

I was so desperate, I jumped out of the hot tub naked, you think I'd let you get away with it?

I'll pop where I came out and tap into the hot tub again.

"Bo, Bo!!?

"How about some hot water?... Yeah, you haven't heard."

Well, it's nothing more than a naked uncle I've met for the first time. Maybe even funny.

If everyone in the resistance has a direct grudge, I'd say do more.

"Well, you keep boiling up like this"

"What are you going to do?"

"It's not a big deal, just make sure you can't get out of the bath for a second"

Pull out the swordbreaker on your hips to prevent you from escaping from the boiling water.

Grandpa Kenny said there was a tendon around his ankle, and when he cut it, he couldn't walk.

I grabbed Nair's leg and scratched it over my ankle.

"Iggy, bobby, bobby!

"Oh, you could get away with using your hands. Then the wrists, the slashing and the like."

In the boiling water, I grab a hot tub desperately to keep it from sinking.

Then you could survive this, you can't do that.

He spat relentlessly, slashing it off at his mercy.

"Higayaaaa, blah, blah, blah..."

I can no longer support my body with my hands or feet, and poor Uncle Nair sinks into boiling water.

Either drowning first or boiling first, I can't help you anymore.

"That's it," he said.

It's a shame I can't see you dying because of the original womb.

"Ma'am, have you finished your fun?"

"Joana, are you the one who found what you were looking for?

"Yeah, just a little. Nevertheless, you killed him in a nasty way again..."

"I don't think he's dead yet."

"No, he's already dead. Here."

Turning around, Nair was just floating around.

My eyes are turning white, like roasted fish.

My skin is also bright red and looks like it has been well boiled.

"You feel good, it's funny. Well, I'm done with my errands, and I don't need to stay long."

"He said it's funny... You don't have any expression at all, do you?

"I'm laughing with my heart."

○ ○ ○

Unnoticed by the Nair assassination, we safely escaped the mansion.

I returned to the Returner Martial Arts Store without a thing.

I didn't think it would be easy to win this far.

Joana reports a lot to the leader, but I guess I'm a little tired.

Tell him I'm going to sleep first, and when I go to my room in the basement,

"Welcome back!"

And Beato, who wrote big on the paper and held it in front of his chest, welcomed me.

No, it's obvious, but this is my room, right?

"... I'm home"

So, I'm also allergic to sticking to everyday things right now, and don't say anything.

"Are you hurt, if you are, I will make it all up again"

"It's okay. It's no damage."

"But there's a little bit on the cape"

"Oh, this is my uncle's blood back. Don't worry, it's not mine."

Let go of your cape, take off your clothes, and change into your pajamas.

Something's awesome to see, but this is the usual thing, too.

But, you know, it's funny, changing someone else's clothes.

I, in the mirror, have the same faceless expression as always.

Recently, the leader tells me that his facial expressions have hardened.

The wing hair decoration I got Claire seemed badly unbalanced on this face.

When I'm done dressing, Beato solidifies for a while with the paper spread out and never begins to write his will.

And, dunno, it sounded so intense that I slapped it on the table.

"Stay with me today, okay?"

"... that's the usual thing. It's okay."

I can't sleep without Beat either, what would I look like if I told you?

I'm not going to be close to anyone.

Because I found out that when you make someone important, it hurts your heart to death when you lose it.

But there's no choice because there's a real harm in not being able to sleep.

Yes, I'm just using Beato.

That's just it.

"Look, let's get to bed. I'm a little tired today."

"... Huh!

I don't care if you run so happy, I'm in trouble.

This kid, why do you miss me so much?

Really, I don't know.
