The Duke of Varga wanted to make a new request to me, who was reporting at the residence of the Duke of Varga in the Wang capital.

"Is this a new request?

"That's right. I'm not going to ask you to do anything that hard."

"May I tell you what it is?

When the Duke of Barga talks, he looks at us as if he were going to peek into the back of this eye. I still peek into my eyes hidden in a Kevlar mask and think of something. But it ended with a slight reticence.

"Fine. I wouldn't approve of rejection if I asked, but let's talk about the request first, and then you can judge me."

"I'm afraid."

"Firstly, regarding the client of this request for the assassination of Lapitilica. Ever since I asked you to follow me on the escort, I've been connecting with the demon-led nobles everywhere, turning my hand so that there's no problem with Lapitilica's wedding--"

The Duke of Barga says that me and Ashley have been negotiating, from about the escort to today, a marriage between Lapitilica and Prince Arch Kurtomerga, the three sons of the royal family, with a demonic nobleman who turns to the opposition.

In it, he saw that one of the few houses that could not even be reconciled at the moment was the mastermind of this one. But I was expecting today with lack of physical evidence, and that's where I came out with the air mask and the "sorcerer killer”.

Even if you look at the results of the Knights everywhere, there are few examples of using "sorcerer kills” to miss out on wins. Moreover, in combination with the night raid, failure while completely enclosing the resting place was the first unthinkable thing. In other words, the use of ”sorcerer killer” and the taking out of the air mask probably bracketed the height that there was no way of exposing it.

The identification number engraved on the disassembled air mask immediately revealed the origin of the air mask in the hands of the assailant. And that's where he was a demonic aristocrat who still couldn't reconcile.

"I mean, do you want me to impose sanctions on that demonic nobleman?

"A little different, I want you to crush the mansion in the king's capital of the Marquis Dennis Fedorov"

"The mansion, sir?

"It is the nobility's duty to judge the nobility, and we will do that responsibly. But, Marquis Fedorov is also a powerful magical nobleman, and he has a lot to do. I won't let you die easily."

"So why the mansion?

"Show me."

"Mi, show me..."

Duke of Barga, aren't you angry at me for being unscrupulous...?

"And searching the mansion, connecting with the Dark Alliance, searching for" sorcerer kills ”and whether air masks are stored, and so on. Of course, you're not alone, Vee."

- Here.

A voice heard behind me all of a sudden, a light point reflected on the map. I thought it was just me and the Duke of Varga in this office, but there seemed to be another one...

Looking back slowly, one woman in the corner of the office......?

The woman standing in the corner of the room wears black, less irregular leather armor and a face veil and eye mask that hides her mouth on her face so she can't see her face. The only brunette I can see is a wavy long, but glossy as a black pearl, which, depending on the addition or subtraction of light, also looks silver......

I could tell it was a woman in her overall shape and in a low, clear voice, but until the moment she uttered her voice, I really didn't know its existence.

"She's one of my escorts, Vee. I want to go with her to the Marquis de Fedorov residence and ask her to consolidate the evidence and destroy the mansion"

"May I make some confirmation?

"Of course. What is it?

"The date and time of execution and the mansion supposedly have servants, Marquis's family, etc., but what to do with it?

"It's about the date and time first. It's the day of the ball at the Royal Castle, that is, three days later. The Marquises and their daughters will attend the ball, only some private soldiers and servants will be present at the mansion, but I'll take care of this."

"On the day of the ball... are you saying Lapitilica will remain absent?

"I can't say for sure, but I'll have you at the ball.” The Sorcerer Killer "doesn't stay that long if you respond correctly. Besides, as the three Duchess of Barga, as a member of the Enchanted Nobility, as a Labyrinth Crusader, he must show his surroundings the Enchanted Nobility."

So I'm going to the Marquis instead of going to the ball.

"The" shaft on the black side ”will be followed by an escort. Just in time, a knight is due to arrive tomorrow from Barga to become a later escort, let's try to get him to play the role of shaft"

Well, one of the reasons I'm making this request is because I'm hiding my face on the black side. With the flashy power to destroy the mansion, the alibi work is easy... The destruction of the Yagoche mansion and the commercial hall is progressing on the assumption that I did it, but can't we deny it now...

Completely in the back job, I was going to say no if you asked me to assassinate the Marquis. It's only business for me to be temporarily hired by Master Lapitilica's escort or by the Duke of Varga's house. I have no intention of swearing allegiance or continuing to be employed in the future. As a temporary business, I just use my strength to accomplish certain respects and tasks.

But as an assassin, I killed him because he told me. It's not a business, for example, I'm not going to let myself down to such a job from the beginning. If it's up to you to deal with the servants left in the mansion, I think you can take it.

Even for me, I'm not going to easily forgive the Marquis for putting Ashley in such an eye.

"I will accept this request"

"That'll help."

From there, it was an operational meeting to confirm rewards and add a female escort called Vee.

◆◆◇◆◆◇◆◆

At the end of the meeting in the Duke's office, as he left the room, the Duke of Varga said, "Shaft, you better get dressed before the smell of blood stains your body".

Speaking of which, I hadn't changed at all...... I headed to the waiting room next to Lapitilica's private room, where I switched everything from a Kevlar mask to a new one from the avatar design, and the blood on my hair washed away in the washroom.

As I was refreshing my outfit, I saw a light point on the map shown on the lens that seemed like a carriage. Apparently Lapitilica and Ashley are back. I decide to leave the waiting room immediately and head to the main entrance lobby.

In the lobby, the Dukes and servants of Barga had already gathered to make a circle.

Approaching the wheel, Ashley immediately notices me and looks at me. Standing but still looking a little spicy. Master Lapitilica also seems to have noticed, she also stands supported by a servant.

"Dear Lapitilica, I apologize for not returning unharmed"

I knelt in front of Lapitilica and apologized for what could be called the end of this. I don't know what I could have done to contain the damage, maybe this was the best time, maybe there was another better way.

But it is true that, as a result, a large number of escorts were killed and the subject of the escort was also in danger of life. Being more combative doesn't serve as an escort, that's what they thought.

"So am I. My lord, Lapitilica. The Duke of Barga was unable to perform his duties satisfactorily as a family escort, and he was simply incompetent to let his men die."

The captain of the convoy was also kneeling down to the Duke of Varga and drooling his head.

"Mr. Shaft, and the captain. Face up, I'm sorry that I was only able to be protected while I was in training as an adventurer. What can I say to all the guards who lost their lives..."

"That's all you need to say. We, the Duke of Barga, were formed to protect ourselves."

I know this is an occasion to rejoice in the safe return of Lapitilica and Ashley, but this is our mess.

"Captain, what happened to the bodies of the escorts? It's my duty to pay them respectfully."

Lord Shaft is bringing us home.

"I carefully carried the bodies in my toolbox, apart from the bodies of the thieves. As soon as you specify a location..."

"You've also recovered the body of the assailant, which is of interest to you. Volker, I need you to show Shaft to the warehouse later, so I can pick you up there first."

"I'm in awe"

"Please. It's time for you to get up, Captain and Shaft. You've done enough, and Larry's home. Let's both go back to your rooms and get some rest first, and we'll talk more tomorrow."

From there, it also turned into a mood to celebrate home. I'm not going to regret it either. Turn Ashley's hand around his shoulder and take him to the waiting room.

"Thank you, Shaft. You're not hurt?

"I don't."

"- Good."

The waiting room where Ashley and I are waiting is located on the second floor of the mansion. The lobby is equipped with a large staircase, which goes up there and upstairs, but going up this staircase seems pretty hard for Ashley, who is drained a lot of her strength by the "sorcerer killer”.

I'm lending Ashley the opposite of my shoulder, turning my hand behind her knees and lifting it all at once.

"Hey, Shaft..."

Ashley calls his name in a voice that's about to disappear, but ignores it. Ignore it.

I look back with Ashley in my arms to the lobby and speak to Mr. Volker.

"I'll be back when I put her to bed, so please guide me"

"I'm in awe. Waiting for you."

Standing behind Mr. Volker, the servant's daughters face turning bright red and in love, are they okay...? There's a duke standing on the side laughing, right?

He greeted the Dukes and Lapitilica again and held Ashley up the stairs to the waiting room. Meanwhile, Ashley was holding my overcoat and quietly solidifying.
