A Berserker Mob, I'm Going to Participate in the Main Story

Backpack…… a large rucksack on his back, Al went alone down the street. The capital is already a stone’s throw away.

(It can’t be just the people who we killed are only who are searching for Fram and the others.They may eventually catch that trail, but we’ ve bought ourselves some time. I’d like to think they won’t chase us all the way to the frontier territories. …… I don’t think they’re planning on going that far……)

Al thinks about the movements of the Viscount Bewley.

I don’t know how serious the pursuers were, but judging by the quality and equipment of the private soldiers they encountered, I’d guess that they didn’t expect to escape to other territories,…….

Even though it was an important sacrifice, in reality it was just a child who had been imprisoned since childhood. What can you do if you escape? …… I could see through such a lame thought.

I didn’t think that they would behave in the same way as a country estate in the jurisdiction of the royal family. It’s too dumb to send someone of that caliber as a chaser.

In the first place, if that thing becomes public, what will the royal family say about it? …… For the Viscount Bewley family, there is no choice but to keep silent. And so, Al inwardly gives the Viscountess Bewley a big no-no.

(Huh. …… I feel like I got carried away and did a lot of things. ……Well, what’s done is done. Besides, Fram seems to be slightly related to the story, and now it’s clear that the time period overlaps with the main game. I’d like to think that meeting her was a revelation of some kind…….Let’s assume so. It’s scary to think how this will affect the story, though: ……Those who conduct outrageous experiments at the expense of the people are certainly villains. They will eventually be defeated by the protagonists, no matter what. Fram is an experiment that was originally set up to be dead, so it’s safe to protect her……?)

Al wants to believe that his actions will not have a significant impact on the story, but …… it is already too late.

The fruition of a magical experiment.

In the game, Fram’s name is not even mentioned. Just the story is told. The end of the sad experiment.

The test subject of a magic experiment escapes and is hid by an elderly couple in a farming village.

However, the peaceful days didn’t last long, and the pursuers killed the kind old couple who hid the Test Subject.

After that, they bring back the desperate experimenter and push her further.

She wants to die, but they won’t let her. she is not allowed to die.

As the days go on, the test subject, trapped in sorrow and resignation, finally loses her life. In exchange, the experimentation of the outcasts will see results, albeit imperfect. The episode is called …….

It is a bit early in the game scenario for Al to protect Fram. After all, it could result in the aborting of the magic experiment.

However, as a conqueror of the outside world, Viscount Bewley is too lax in many ways, as Al thinks. So, it can be said that they deserve what they get.

“Well, there’s no point in thinking about it any more. Let’s switch gears and go to the academy next.”

Al is a Falconer, for better or worse.

He describes his father as being rough, but …… is he really?

:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:

The Kingdom of MacBrayne.

The place where the Supreme Being sits.

The royal capital.

Its scale is vast.

One of the greatest cities in this world.

It is said that there was once an empire that conquered the far reaches of the continent, beyond what is now called the frontier regions, and that as that empire declined, countries sprang up all over. One of them is the Kingdom of MacBrayne, which has already been in existence for over 400 years.

Incidentally, the noble families that have been around since the time of the empire are called old noble families, which means that the MacBrayne royal family is also just a local noble family from the time of the empire. Of course, it is impolite to speak of it, and Only a limited few are not condemned for saying it.

The royal capital is divided by the first, second, and third great walls, and now the outermost, fourth, outer wall is also under construction.

The first wall separates the districts of the royal castle, the equipment and facilities related to the administration of the state, and the residences of the great nobles. The first district. The Supreme District.

The second wall separates the districts with the residences and annexes of the great noble families and other facilities for the wealthy. Second district. Nobility District.

The third wall is the largest district and separates what is commonly referred to as the Royal Capital.

It is said that there are many people born in the royal capital who never cross the second wall in their lifetime, and normal city functions are concentrated in this area.

The only people who live in the noble districts are the powerful great noble families and the historical old noble families, while the other noble families have their mansions or separate houses in this district. Even though they live in the same district, there is a clear distinction between the ordinary people and the noble families.

Incidentally, the “Radford Royal Academy of Magic”, where those associated with the nobility attend, is also in this district. The third district. The people’s district.

Furthermore, outside the third wall, there used to be a place called the Gulag …… Slum, which has now been developed into a town.

It is more prosperous than other towns, but it is still a former slum, and some parts of it still have a cheesy, cheap, suspicious, and dangerous atmosphere. From Al’s point of view, it is more lively than Falconer’s capital.

However, those who live in the capital do not recognize the area outside the third wall as “the capital. They say it’s not part of the capital, but a town for outsiders.

Al stepped into such a royal city.

:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:

“What? You’re not going to enroll yet?”

We crossed the fourth outer wall, which was still under construction, and spent the night in the town of Gaijin, feeling like country folk.

The next day, Al immediately went to the academy in the People’s District, but ……

“Yes. I’m sorry, but if you come at this time of year, you will be admitted in the next term. That means you’ll have to wait another six months.”

“…………”

The gap of a few days was completely irrelevant.

No wonder none of the other noble families’ sons and daughters were around.

……

…………

“Huh. …… Well, what am i going to do now ……?”

Fortunately for Al, he has plenty of money. In the first place, I came out with the intention of buying everything I needed in the capital.

The nobles and those who are associated with the nobility in this world are basically “fighters” and almost never have their servants do all their personal affairs ……. They basically do their own things.

Although we need the help of others when dressing for ceremonies in ceremonial attire or dresses, we are usually not blamed for the simplicity of the clothes.

An aristocratic society based on war work.

Aristocratic society where battlefield work is the original.

On the battlefield, you protect yourself.

No one will help you.

Nevertheless, those with power should help those without power.

Even now, in a world of relatively peaceful times, such ideas have not yet been formalized, nor has there been much development of rituals.

The metropolitan aristocracy centered in the royal capital: ……Especially among the old noble families who have long since left the battlefield. Gradually, though, the trend is becoming more and more focused on politeness. but …… there are many noble families who snicker at such an appearance.

Al is particularly a frontiersman.

It’s not a problem to take lodging in a foreign town, or to spend half the year alone without access to a dormitory.

It’s just…. I’m worried that I might accidentally become a criminal or something. ……

Al was aware of the fact that he was a foreigner in the capital.

(((I’ve already encountered some events up to this point as well. If I just wander around randomly, I might find another sticky situation waiting for me. …… Why don’t I go to the back streets of a foreigner’s town or something?)))

It’s just that Al seems to be going with the flow of the game-like world: ……”Yes. Back street” There is no objective self-evaluation that the idea of “going” is not that of a normal person, but rather that of a dangerous person with a dangerous mind.

……

…………

………………

“…… Hey, kiddo. Can you give me some money? ……

“Oh, come on, Jack. Don’t be so intimidating, okay? Poor guy can’t even speak, can he? Pfft.”

Al was immediately tangled up.

(…… Is this just a bunch of thugs? I know it’s a common event, but …… would you rather have gone to the adventurer’s guild or something? No? (Isn’t there such a thing in this world?)”

“Hey, kiddo. Look, just a little bit of money and you’ll be free from these scary experiences in no time, okay?”

Al thinks about something else, but turns his attention to the back street.

There are two goons in front of me. But there are also signs around. Perhaps after these two, they plan to haggle with Al even more. They are hiding and watching.

“Hey! Are you listening to me, ……?”

The man collapsed vertically on the spot with a dull thud. The result of a fist striking the tip of his chin.

“……!”

As the other man suddenly took notice of the fallen man, a fist slammed into his stomach. This one collapsed as well, unable to even make a proper grunt.

Al quickly examined the two bodies and pulled out the money. He also pulled out the coins they had hidden in the soles of their shoes. The amount of money was not enough to cover the cost of Al’s money, but he was not going to let that stop him.

It’s possible that the people who were spying on him might try to strip him further after this, but Al has no more use for them and leaves the backstreet.

(How can there be so many events coinciding with each other? …… Or should I look for the main character? No, the main characters of both men and women are frontier nobles. …… They may already be at the academy. Besides…… I can’t just walk in there before admitted to the academy…….)”

The main character of the game in Al’s memory.

You can choose between a male and female protagonist, but not only do they have different genders, they also have different backgrounds and personalities.

The male and female protagonists are also set up to know each other, and the protagonist of the gender they did not choose also appears in the main story as an important character. Depending on the route, they may even become each other’s main love interest.

At least it wasn’t the ‘yes/no’ choice type of silent protagonist.

Al already can’t even remember the default name of the main character, but he can identify the visuals as quirky. In other words, if you don’t see it, you can’t remember it. In other words, there was nothing he could do about it now that he couldn’t enter the academy.

(There’s nothing else to do, so I’ll just go hunting for hoodlums in the back streets. …… I’ll avoid anything that might get too involved in the main character’s regular events.)

It seems that Al is going to follow the guideline of “avoiding events in the regular route that might involve the main character too much.

And so, Al’s life in the royal capital begins.

……

…………

Incidentally, by the time a month had passed, he was known as the “thug hunter” in the back streets, and no one was getting involved with Al anymore.
