Chapter 326 - Episode Twenty-Six - Continuation - The Fierce Leaders of the Fage Territory (1)

When I came back from the border of Riveras Kingdom to defeat the two Nalgarns, the territory was in a state of panic.

It’s hard to believe, but it seems that Lark’s mansion had been wiped out.

Fortunately, no one was involved, but it was still a terrible story.

I knew that this was a serious situation, so I went into the inn where Lark was waiting, leaving Penrath, the old man I was going to introduce to Lark as the mysterious amnesiac, to wait outside for the time being.

With the help of a familiar servant of Lark’s mansion, I walked through the inn and visited a room in the back with Euris.

I come face to face with Lark, who rests his elbows on the desk.

There were other people in the room, including Altamir, Mea, and the servants of Lark’s mansion.

I heard that the entire inn was now rented out by the Lark family.

Mea was anxious, and Altamir had a pained look on her face as she turned to the floor.

“Abel!”

Mea sees me and tries to run to me, but Euris interrupts her.

“Abel-dono, first of all, please report to Lark-sama and confirm the current situation.”

I was annoyed, but it was certainly an important matter for the Fage territory.

I smiled lightly at Mea and told her I’d see her later.

It seems that Mea had a lot to say, and she looked at Euris with some dissatisfaction, but she backed off.

I walked over to Lark.

“Abel-kun, thank you for your efforts in defeating those magic beasts. It was a job that only you could have done. If it weren’t for you, I don’t know how many times this territory would have ended ……”

“Enough with the preamble. What’s going on?”

“Yes …… If you say so, then so be it. As you’ve probably heard, there’s been some trouble in the fage territory, too. Targetting Abel-kun’s absence, a sabotage attempt was done by the Riveras Kingdom. They’ve sent a top-class sorcerer.”

Lark said restlessly.

Looks like it’s starting to be a disturbing conversation.

A troublesome country has caught our attention, and the fage territory is in a troublesome position.

As long as the interference from the Riveras Kingdom continues, there will be no peace in the fage territory.

“What do you mean the house was blown up?”

“It was the enemy’s magic, it was a close call. If it had been used while we were all still in the mansion …… I don’t even want to think about it.”

I swallowed my spit.

If something had gone wrong, Mea, Lark, and all the servants could have been killed.

Somehow, I had underestimated the problems in Riveras Kingdom.

But when you take on a country that has gone out of control, you have to be prepared to take hostages and bomb their territories.

I was not prepared to lose anyone, even though I had stolen the treasure of the enemy god.

I had already been targetted by the water god.

It’s not like I can just return the spear now. The only way out of this is to fight and destroy the enemy.

“…… I didn’t need to be rushed by Peter, I guess I didn’t have much of a choice after all.”

I had no choice but to accept Peter’s request.

The defeat of Levi, the patron god of Riveras Kingdom, and the capture of Pope Sateria, the current supreme ruler of Riveras Kingdom.

This was an issue that I couldn’t ignore for the sake of me, Mea, and the peace of the Fage territory.

The fact that the mansion was blown up meant that the enemy was planning to kill everyone in the Lark mansion.

It was just a coincidence that the people of the Lark Mansion were saved by a twist of fate.

As for me, I’m clearly pissed off with Levi’s tactics.

They’re not the kind of people I want to get involved with, but if they want to settle this, then so be it.

“I heard that you captured the sorcerer …… It’s amazing you manage to do that.”

“Oh, the big guy who attacked us, Rathboutt, was secured by Alta-san. I can’t thank her enough.”

I was also relieved to hear that.

That’s the legendary witch Altamir.

There is also the collector in the Fage territory who can be counted on to be a force to be reckoned with, but he is not only uncooperative, he is a complete coward.

No matter what the people around him say, he always says, “I don’t want to fight because I don’t have a sword that fits in my hand”.

I’m sure you can understand why he would want to do this, as he owned several swords that were worth as much as the total assets of a large nobleman, and as someone who was part of the reason why he did it, I can’t say I’m surprised. I hope he will learn from Altamir, who lost the tower she spent most of her life in to an unfortunate accident, and go on to live a second life as an adventurer.

“As for Rathbooth, Alta, who actually fought him, would know him well. But she’s a little tired right now, so you’ll have to wait until later. I haven’t heard much about it myself.”

When I glanced at Altamir, she was lying on his back with a pained expression on her face.

She occasionally sighs meaningfully and shakes her head in pain.

“…… Let’s keep quiet now, shall we, Altamir-san? If we just keep quiet, it seems like everything will come together, doesn’t it? Mea too …… won’t say anything unnecessary anymore either ……”

Mea was whispering something to Altamir.

“No, but …… but this is a bit much …… won’t it be irreversible later? It looks like some pretty bad documents were burned up too ……”

It seems that Mea was consoling Altamir.

It’s a rare occurrence.

“If you tell the truth, no one will benefit. I don’t want Altamir-san to be punished for her hard work, either. It’s not like we’re going to lie, we’re just going to keep our mouth shut, okay?”

“Are you that kind of girl? Have you been poisoned by Abel?”

“M-Mea has been tainted by Abel!?”

“Why do you look so happy?”

I don’t know what’s going on, but I’m glad to see Mea is doing well.

I knew she wasn’t hurt, but I was worried that she might have been emotionally scarred by fear.

She had been nearby when the building exploded, that’s was what I was worried about.

Just then, the door was rudely opened without a knock.

“…… You can’t be that naive, Baron-chan. I’m going to let Alta Mi …… Alta talk about the enemy as soon as possible. I’d like to talk to Abel-chan about what happens after that, too.”

I turned around and saw Peter standing there with his subordinate Myunhi by his side.

“It’s not funny situation, Abel-chan, to say the least. You don’t have any more time to hesitate. We don’t need to lose the initiative against the Riveras Kingdom any longer. You have the power to go in directly and neutralize Sateria and Levi. No, you’re the only one who can do that.”
