Chapter 93: (1)
I, I didnt do anything like that! I just pretended not to know!
Well thats why they all died at once. Somehow, when I heard that from Yanton, it felt strange. But why didnt you kill Linda back then? If your goal was the downfall of the Markain family, it would have been easier to handle it together at that time, wouldnt it?
Well We tried to do it as if she had fallen ill and died, but I heard that it failed. So we tried to handle it ourselves
It failed well, judging by your sloppy work, that could be the case.
The Armis family easily eliminated Lindas family, so removing Linda herself wouldnt have been a difficult task. Thats why they entrusted this task to the knights who were spies in the Markain family. Everything started to go awry when Linda coincidentally met Kaiyan.
Hehe Would you like to ask me more?
Thats enough No, its okay. How many knights who betrayed the Markain family are there?
Including me, there are a total of five! But it seems that three of them
Looking at the guy ncing at him, Kaiyan knew who those three were.
The knights who came to take Linda, right?
Yes, yes! Thats right!
Then, what about the remaining one? Why did you move alone?
Well the remaining one couldnt move because he holds the position of the Markain familys first knight.
If its a first knight the highest-ranking knight who assists the lord?
When Kaiyan was with the Carcia family, Barvan once told him that if he became a lord, he would be the first knight. He said that only one first knight could only exist in one family, and that the first knight was the highest rank among all knights. But Kaiyan never imagined that such a Knight would be a traitor in the Markain family.
This is serious. Do you have any more information to tell me?
Um Ah! If he knows that I failed, theres a high chance that the Armis family will take direct action! If Lady Linda is appointed as the official lord of the Mareon Empire when she arrives at the Markain family, the Armis family wont be able to im ownership of the territory they initially nned for!
Hmm So, did you guys intend to report the sess through themunication device if the mission had seeded? You probably didnt n to go directly to the Armis family, especially given the circumstances.
Kaiyan heard from Anton that the Markain family was located to the west of this border area. However, the Mareon Empire was so vast that it had a name as an empire, so he heard that they had to ride a horse and travel for several days from this border area to get there.
Yes! Thats right! I was going to use themunication device to contact Delonce, uh! Delonce is the first knight! I told him that if I informed him that the mission was sessful, he should inform the Armis family directly.
Is that so?
The more he heard, the more loopholes he found in their ns.
In that case, I have to dig into those gaps and use their n against them.
You should contact Delonce right away.
Yes? B-but since the mission failed and the Armis family will take action, is it okay?
Actually, you can report the mission as a sess. Tell them that you killed Linda.
Oh, right! Ill do it right away!
The knight hastily took out a smallmunication device from his pocket, blowing Ouro into it. After a brief wait, the vibrating device lit up, and a voice could be heard from it.
*Melvios, is the missionplete?*
Yes, yes! Delonce, the mission has beenpleted!
*Did you retrieve the ne? You understand that its essential, right?*
Of course. We took it from her
The knight, who was about to refer to Linda, nced at Kaiyan for a moment, and Kaiyan nodded in agreement.
The ne is with us and Linda is dead!
*Thats a relief. Then, deal with the bought-out soldiers and return to the Markain Family quickly. We must not leave any traces of our involvement. *
The soldiers have already been dealt with. Ill return as soon as possible!
*Very well,e back, and lets discuss further. *
With those final words, themunication devices light dimmed, and the voice ceased toe through.
Hehe As you requested, the mission isplete.
Yes, youve done very well. So, farewell, ze Armor.
Huh?
Kaiyan delivered a powerful punch to the bewildered knights face as if to say, Whats that supposed to mean?
Boom!
The knights head couldnt withstand the force of Kaiyans punch, shattering into pieces as blood sttered in all directions. Fortunately, this time, he hadnt activated ze Armor, so his body remained clean.
Kaiyan looked at the fallen knight with a somewhat perplexed expression. Then, Rieka, who had been perched in a tree, leaped down and approached.
*Kaiyan doesnt keep promises with bad guys! Bad guy!*
Rieka, using her short front paws, lightly tapped the knight, and Kaiyan picked her up and ced her in his arms.
Kaiyan, what do you n to do now?
I have a feeling that something interesting is going to happen in the Markain Family.
Really?
Since were heading in that direction, we might as well witness this interesting event, dont you think?
Alright! Lets go to the Markain Family!
Yes, to the Markain Family.
Four days after Lindas group crossed the border, the Markain Family was bustling with guests.
The visitors to the Markain Family included nobles and knights from the Armis Viscount Family.
Haha! Delonce, its good to see you.
Oh! Wee! Come this way, Mr. Vyarolf!
As the representative knight of the Markain Family, Delonce weed them with a joyful expression. Ignoring the displeased faces of the Markain Familys knights.
Delonce led Mr. Vyarolf, a nobleman, and his entourage inside as he left the position of the host of the Markain Family to the other knights.
Remaining outside, the Markain Familys knights gathered together.
What on earth is happening? Why have nobles from the Armis Familye to the Markain Family, and without a word to us?
