This Time, I Became the Fiance of a Duke’s Daughter. But She is Rumored to have Bad Personality, and Ten Years Older

The five humans believed to be assassins were quickly rendered powerless by Jared.

The assassins, taken abandoned by the boy who came down from the mansion, were unconscious while his mouth was open.

"I didn't even have to use magic... I've never seen such a dumb assassin"

What's new in memory is the face of Vault Toyfer. They assassination groups, including Pfile, were making more sophisticated moves. In comparison, the five people who slammed into the ground were a bad place.

"Can you only hire to this extent, or do you think this level is enough"

I can't even tell Jared if Ricardo's mother hired him. Exploring their nostalgia and hoping they don't possess something to prove ends up with unfortunate results.

"... are these guys adventurers"

One man found the adventurer's certificate he had, and the boy pounded his tongue.

As always, an adventurer takes any job if it's going to be gold. The raider who once tormented Olivier was also an adventurer, and it was the adventurer who nearly devastated one village by attacking the young dragon species for gold purposes.

Not all of them are bad guys, I guess, but Jared couldn't really like the adventurer because there are people who would undertake murder with money.

Most likely, adventurers will take it because they have people to ask for it. In that sense, I can't say that only adventurers are evil.

"Dear Jared, use this one if you like"

"Oh, thank you. Excuse me. I got ahead of myself."

"No, the skill of defeating the five without sound is brilliant. I won't."

"That won't happen."

He receives the rope offered to him by Clawens, who has quietly followed him, tying the adventurers.

"Unfortunately, I don't have the fighting power I once had. Magic and strength have completely faded with age"

The magic I can feel from her is strong, and I don't think I'm an old person. But I guess Clawens himself, like no other, feels faded.

Even now, I wondered how much her entire season was with the power she deserved to be a former court magician.

"By the way, Master Clawens, what do we do with these guys?

"If I could, would it be preferable to know who asked me to target Ricardo?"

"Do you interrogate then? You won't be able to complain if it gets a little rough. Even if I snuck into the Duke's mansion, I went for my life."

"Then let Dennis handle it. He's not just a fighter, he's a fighter. We'll lose to the professionals, but it'll be easy enough to break the mouth of a low-quality adventurer."

Olivier's ex-fiancée candidate pervert floats in the back of his brain, but shakes his head and cancels it, to the term interrogation profession.

"Well, I'll leave it to Mr. Dennis"

"He cracked my mouth really easily. My client is Catalina Hagendorf, Ricardo's mother."

"... was it still my mother? Whenever people aim for their lives like this, it makes them sad. I'm sorry I didn't live up to my mother's expectations, but I'm terrified of my mother trying to kill my real son."

Dennis finished his interrogation while wiping the blood on his hands with a cloth. I still found out Ricardo's mother was my client, and my son dropped his shoulder.

"Dear Ricardo, I'm not sure if I can say good news, but I think it was a good time"

"Mr. Dennis?

"Perhaps Lord Cassandra intended to handle Dear Ricardo's assassination inside. For this reason, the opponent also flatly turns to the next assassin. But here's me and Lord Jared."

"Uh, me, is it?

"Yes, we captured an adventurer in front of an active court magician who tried to kill a Duke's human being and also revealed the name of his client. Enough to incriminate Master Catalina Hagendorf."

I see, and Jared slaps his hand.

I don't know why the Duke of Cassandra Hagendorf was trying to handle it internally, but neither Jared nor Dennis need do the same. Even if the House of the Duke of Hagendorf is scratched in this matter, the blame lies with the mastermind.

There may be a downfall in the image of the Duke's house, but if you do anything about this one, it's a repeat of the same thing.

I know Ricardo was about to change his name and lead a new life, but if he even sealed off the culprit, he wouldn't have to do that either.

"... but then my mother"

But again, Ricardo showed difficulty.

My mother is my mother, trying to get my life targeted. There seems to be resistance to trying for the crime of trying to kill my son.

"I'm sorry, I know it's sweet. But I just want you to think about it for one night."

I couldn't disagree with the three of you more than the person at the time told me so and I was lowered to my head.

Jared spent the next day checking Cassandra's private room with Clawens.
