The day after Jared was taken.

The Duke of Harald Alway officially protested against the Royal Palace, the Society of Mages and the House of the Duke of Hagendorf.

The answer from the Royal Palace is that the no-go designation for petrochemical magic, the arrest of Jared Murphy, the break-in into the Duke of Alway residence, and everything is not involved.

The Sorcerer's Association, for its part, admitted that it had held a meeting to decide on a no-go designation, but said it did not remember to grant formal no-go certification and permission to arrest.

Harald was outraged by this.

In other words, Jared was arrested at the discretion of the House of the Duke of Hagendorf.

In the first place, it is unprecedented to arrest a human being who is a court magician and has the position of fiancée of the Duke's Lady without any preconditions.

Unless, hypothetically, Jared is an intelligence agent of another country or accused of national treason, he's not.

There has been no response from the House of the Duke of Hagendorf, and he remains silent. In an attempt to protest directly against Cassandra Hagendorf, it was the end of the day when Harald would be politely driven back by the butler, even as he headed out to the mansion.

At present, the Royal Palace has gathered magician's association executives with the Duke of Alway, Baron Dowm, and others to discuss the matter.

There was no sign of Cassandra there, even as Pfile took a peek into the royal palace. The former assassin boy was terribly sorry. Perhaps you would have gotten your hands on her directly if you had found her.

And now, the Oliviers were gathered in the dining room.

"In the first place, why did Cassandra Hagendorf move so handily?

While each had a bitter look on his face, Rosa expressed her doubts as she teased the redhead with her hands.

"Can you say I was handy?

It was Pfile who tilted his neck.

Cassandra's actions only gained momentum, but I don't think she was very handy. Now, her actions are seen as problematic in their progression.

"The opponent was meant to capture Jared, so he's fulfilling it safely. And then I guess you don't mind trying to be a problem."

"You were only thinking about sealing Jared's movements?

"That's what I think. But I wonder why it was necessary to use the power of the Duke's house on purpose."

I had already heard from Olivier's mouth that the House of the Duke of Hagendorf was deeply involved with the Society of Mages.

Just as the Duke of Alway family has the role of guardian of the king's capital, the Duke of Hagendorf family has the responsibility of monitoring the sorcerers' association.

It was created in a time when the relationship between the Royal Palace and the Sorcerer's Association was once not intimate, but now it is not just about surveillance, it has a position within the Association and is also involved in operations. Among them, opinions are often also sought for the designation of a ban and the election of candidates for court magicians.

That may have allowed me to exert pressure on the sorcerers' association, but I don't think I needed to do that much. Besides, if you're taking more time, no matter what you think. In a rushed operation, you can't hide that there's a nonsense on Cassandra's side.

"Does that mean that Cassandra had something to think of Jared?

Olivier, who has ever shut his mouth, asks.

"Earlier, as in one of Lucas Gallagher's cases, to avoid intervention later...... no, you don't. He was supposed to snake out of his sight. You can't possibly not know that."

"Rosa's right. It's foolish to get your own hands on how much Jared has been involved in so many cases before"

"Was it possible that Rasmus was sensing that Jared was going to ask for help?

"The man seems to have a sweet tendency in his body. I guess I was reading that my father Wahash was coming here more than he was failing to raid."

Rosa's right, in fact, Rasmus has asked the Jared's for help.

To Jared, who is not as powerful as Wahash, but also has extravagant powers as a court magician, there are also Pfil and Rosa, powerful men of the same party.

There were a lot of people who could easily ask for help.

If you are a Duke's house and have an association of magicians, you know that there are three of them in the Duke of Alway apartment.

Then it should have been easy to take the lead if only Rasmus had known what was going on.

Even if it's forceful, if you move the sorcerer's association, you can prioritize only the purpose that later things are not what you found out. In fact, it is.

But as I doubt Rosa and the others, I don't see why they tied Jared up that far.

If you wanted to stop Rasmus from helping, you should also capture Pfile and Rosa as well. In the case of the two of you, you have a past that was the successor to Vault Toyfer, so it should have been easy to carry. But I didn't.

"... what move does the Royal Palace make?

"Sometimes I worry about your father because he's moving."

"Yes, it is."

At the moment we know the arbitrariness of the House of the Duke of Hagendorf.

It is the Royal Palace that decides on the prohibition designation. The Sorcerer's Association only has to choose.

There is an obligation to report to the State, and one institution alone cannot decide everything. Nonetheless, this time, the Duke family will have gone arbitrary, albeit intervening.

The Sorcerer's Association is only the discretion of the House of the Duke of Hagendorf and has publicly stated that it is not involved, but it is also suspicious what the truth is.

In the first place, more attention should be paid to the revival of ancient sorcery before it was designated a ban on petrochemical sorcery. Jared's contribution to modern magic, which can be used for a long time to lose, is enormous.

Even if it is judged to be a proscription-worthy sorcery, it is more impossible to make it a problem because it has not caused any damage and it is also in the midst of a battle involving the state that it used.

That means Jared's arrest is too much.

"Cassandra, why did you take Jared?

I was Olivier worrying about where my fiancée, who's not here, was doing it.
