The Count of Noland family was in the aristocratic district of King's Capital. I have a territory, but I leave it mostly to the deputies, and the clan lives in the king's capital. Became Earl of Noland, Cornelia's brother Linus and others had some experience of belonging to the Knights, and have known the Duke of Alway since then. The fact that fathers were originally close to each other is one reason.
But such an intermediary between the Count of Noland and the Duke of Alway was about to be broken by Cornelia Alway.
It was exposed that she had long been aiming for the life of Hannellone Alway, the main chamber of the Duke of Alway's house, and was planning to take that position and replace her. By the hands of her daughter like no other.
Emilia, Cornelia's daughter, is forgiven for sharing her mother's work with her father and Jared Murphy. Tobias, his son, also seemed to be spoiled by a situation in which he was his eldest son but did not succeed the housekeeper, but from the beginning he told his father that he would know what his mother had done and would not succeed him, without ambition or anything.
This makes it impossible for Cornelia to succeed his son in his proper room, which was his purpose. Cornelia herself, however, has not been able to know his son's movements because he had fled to his parents' house before everything was revealed.
As a result, she hired the Dolph Ayne, who defied Vault Toyfer, to try to target Hannellone again. But thanks to Pfile and Rosa Lowen, Jared told the Duke everything in advance, creating an incentive for him to step down to Cornelia's captivity.
And - Jared Murphy had finished getting ready to fight anytime wearing a battle suit in front of the Count of Noland house.
Enough magic. The mansion I was worried about is also protected by my master Almeida and Dragon Girl Glass Cherry Blossom. If you attacked the mansion, the raiders would be less than satisfied with the five bodies. Therefore, I can safely focus on capturing Cornelia, and first to unbrainwash Luther Fisher, who was a benefactor and kept searching for her whereabouts.
Few soldiers have been gathered, with about twenty knights, private soldiers of the Duke's family, headed by the Duke who takes command of himself. Some of them knew their names, even Jared, who was oblivious to knights, and it was obvious that they were a few elite.
We have already exchanged greetings with the knights and it is a pleasure to be told and expected from being the fiancée of "Son-in-law" and Olivier. The knight may have a bad magician fold, so I'm thankful that he was accepted, although anxious to be Olivier's fiancée.
Pfile and Rosa, who are not here, and the fighters of Vault Toyfer are already on placement. The rebels are left to Vault Toyfel, and the private soldiers of the Count of Noland family are also to be held by the private soldiers of the Duke's family.
All Jared has to think about is fighting the executives of the rebels, including Luther.
Armed and dressed in armor, the Duke has decided to capture Cornelia himself.
And then the battle begins as soon as we wait for a response from the apostle who sent it to the Earl of Noland.
From the royal palace, solve it without making things bigger - I hear you are ordered to do so. For the House of the Duke of Alway, which plays the role of patron of the King's Capital, the fact that the side chamber worked hand in hand with the rebels of the assassination organization, the phrase that caused the problem, is not preferable. Either way, I guess I was going to handle it in secret.
"The messenger... No, it seems the Lord himself has arrived."
As the Duke put it, an unarmed man walks in from the Count's house with his hands up. I guess he is Cornelia's brother Linus Noland.
One of the knights checked to see if he had hidden the dark vessel and was put through before the Duke.
"Linus Noland, Earl of Noland homeowner. I wanted to respond directly."
"Let's hear it."
On his knees, Linus, drooling his neck, told him clearly.
"The Counts of Noland have no intention of contending with the Dukes of Alway. We know the seriousness of what Cornelia has done. However, no matter how persuasive she was, her sister didn't try to listen. I am truly sorry to hear that you have been granted respite by Master Harald."
"Your sincerity is conveyed. I'd like you to know that the bad news is Cornelia."
"Whatever."
"Do you know Cornelia hired a new assassin?
"- Oh, I don't know. I heard that the Adventurers Guild and the Sorcerer's Association are no longer receiving requests from Cornelia, but no way."
Seeing Linus reveal his surprise, Jared decides it's not an act. You definitely didn't know, your breathing is rough and you're sweating cold. If this is an act, you'd better stop being a nobleman and become an actor.
"No, I knew I had previously used Vault Toyfer when working disrespectfully on Master Hannellone, but I didn't know I could have made contact with Cornelia under house arrest..."
"Were you watching?
"Of course it is. I still have three knights on my watch."
"Jared."
"Yes."
Suddenly they call me by my first name and I reply surprised.
"What do you think will happen to Cornelia with just three watchdogs, more than we know where the rebels named Dolph Ayne are?
"I can't say anything because I don't know what a knight on the lookout is capable of, but I think it's possible to know what's going on and try to escape"
"Count Linus Noland. If you're not going to be hostile to me, you have no objection to Cornelia's captivity, do you?
"Of course!
"Then let's go. If there's a chance you can get away with it, I want to tie you up sooner than that."
To the voice of the Duke, the knights make a move.
Jared is not going to follow you inside the mansion. Outside the mansion, intercept the Lutherans, who would obstruct them.
I have already told the Duke and have obtained his consent. Even from the Duke, he seemed abominable that, even though he had disobeyed Vault Toyfer, he had five persons to be regarded as his successors and equivalent in strength. But if Jared and the Pfiles, who are not here, can take care of those five, it will be easier to capture Cornelia.
"Though the people in the Count of Noland family won't resist, we don't know where the assassination group people are getting mixed up! If it's possible to resist, capture it, and if it's impossible, cut it off."
- Whoa! And when the knights reply with their swords up, they head to the Count's house.
and, at the same time,
"Unfortunately, it's not easy to give my client away"
A man wearing glasses, who stood in the way of the knights but appeared in full swing, smiled like a snake and spread his arms.
The knights stop moving.
You're Dolph Ayne.
"It is with great pleasure that the Duke of Harald Alway remembers his name. I would have liked you to hire me if I could, but it is our duty to protect that person more than Master Cornelia is our client. So let's fight."
"Fine. Let's take you all down and tie up Cornelia. If you resist, just cut it off."
"Oh, horrible. But I'm even scarier."
No, and when Dolph hoisted his lips, his subordinates attacked him for hiding somewhere.
