Chapter 131
[Since a while ago, you people had been saying or
And I dont even know if what youre saying is true]Kaoru
[Wha]Bureaucrat
After being stuck for a moment, the bureaucrat tried to yell at me again but immediately noticed the gazes of Emil, whos holding the handle of the sword he had worn on his waist, and the neighbors whore looking at him with scary eyes. He closed his mouth that he had just opened.
[Anyway, Ive never been to the royal capital of this country, I have no family, relatives, or even acquaintances living in the royal capital, and I have no idea of anyone who might be able to help me. Im wondering if some villain had noticed me, since hes doing things such as trying to trick me into kidnapping and making me an illegal slave, or thinking that I was simply a little girl and threaten me so they can steal my shop. so]Kaoru
[Wait, what are]Bureaucrat
To my words, the bureaucrat has his eyes wide open. But what Ive said was not really strange. So, the neighbors glares were quite intense
And, as the situation continues.
[Hey, I brought you the guardsman-an-chan.]Man
An uncle in the neighborhood brought me a guardsman in his mid-20s.
The guardsman is neither from the royal capital, nor is he a strong elite soldier. He is just an ordinary low-ranking soldier from the local area who has just been trained. And he is
In other words, he moves with the intention of protecting the local people rather than the outsiders. Especially when comparing the underage (looking) girls against the three people who are getting agitated and are about to commit unscrupulous acts.
[You guys, you broke into the store suddenly and threatened the children!]Guardsman
Oh, hes going full throttle from the beginning, guardsman-san!
Ah, when I thought that guardsman-sans gaze moved, I saw a woman about 17 to 18 years old among the bystanders!
Wa ha~a, are you perhaps trying to show off to the young women?
Well, it is convenient for me to keep it on the track, especially if he came out boasting such strong attitude.
[What are you saying, Im from the royal capital]Bureaucrat
[Yeah, thats all you said from the beginning, and I dont even know your name, your clients name, or even your business with me in the first place. Its just that and nothing else]Kaoru
Yes, I havent even heard his name yet.
He shouldve just stated his name, the clients name, and the nature of business from the very beginning. But instead, he looked down on me like Im just a little girl and suddenly yelled at me in an interrogating tone, so thats why this had happened.
He wouldnt be able to give the clients name in front of the guardsman and a lot of people anymore.
If he do that, the rumors will spread quickly like wildfire. So the more influential that person is, the less likely he will give the person-in-questions name.
Well, he will be taken by the guard, so he can give him that persons name where the others cannot hear him, in order to prove his innocence. If he can prove it, that is.
[You]Bureaucrat
After staring at me with murderous eyes, the bureaucrat said to the guardsman.
[Im from the royal palace. Do you know what happens if you go against me!]Bureaucrat
However, the guardsman has a calm face.
[And so, can you prove it?]Guardsman
[Such a thing, these two can testify!]Bureaucrat
But the guardsman who heard it just shrugged it.
[And how will you prove that they are related to the royal palace?]Guardsman
[Eh]Bureaucrat
No wonder.That will happen
[Ei!Do you know what will happen to you after this!]Bureaucrat
[No, even if you claim that the current offender of a criminal act is a high-ranking person, if I dont believe it and just let it go, I will get fired? Even if you really are working for a high ranking person, I dont think Ill be scolded for catching someone like you in the act of criminal activity. I might even get praised for it.
This is not a rotten city where we can overlook criminal activity if the offenders are high-ranking officials.]Guardsman
[Eh]Bureaucrat
Oh, this city is pretty solid!
Well, even if you say
Well, the fact that he would have forced me to talk about various things and then take me to the royal capital, so thats about right.
Anyway, for the time being, please calmly go to the station with the guardsman.
It may just be an attempt, but hes likely to have a certain status, so maybe hell be squeezed out of information by the guardsman and his superiors at the station.
As expected, he wouldnt put them in prison, since they didnt touched us directly.
But theyre likely to get a warning that they should never approach us again.
Ah, thats right!
[Hey, can I get that person to come closer to me?]Kaoru
[Hmm? Oh, I dont mind]Guardsman
With that being said, the guardsman, whos being vigilant, urged the bureaucrats to approach me.
[Can you see the color of my eyes?]Kaoru
[Eh? Ah, I understand.]Bureaucrat
After that, the bureaucrat brought his face closer to mine and looked into my eyes.
[Eh, light hazel brown]Bureaucrat
The bureaucrat has a stunned face. As expected, you thought that I had black hair and black eyes, didnt you?
That means that he inevitably knew about the angel.
[Also]Kaoru
And when I took my wig off.
[Wha, brown hair!]Bureaucrat
Alright, he should now know that Im not the [self-proclaimed angel of Balmoa Kingdom]. No, Ive never called myself such thing, only them.
Have you heard it from that light-mouthed pharmacist old man? Or did you follow someone from the barn and asked about the Viscount Reifel family? Did those merchants who came from royal capital had the same source of info?
In any case, were just a small store that has nothing to do with the angels of Balmoa Kingdom or the miracles of the Viscount Reifel and Baron Drivel. They should have thought so.
And for the finisher
[Perhaps, someone purposefully misinformed you, just like those merchants? The merchants said,
[Wha]Bureaucrat
All right, mission-complete!
With this, it was set in stone that we were just a little store that sold medicinal herbs to that shitty old man, and that we had nothing to do with other matters. I have nothing to do with the Viscount Reifel family, and I dont know the Baron Drivel family.
The horses?
There arent many horse shops in the suburbs that takes good care of horses, so its just a coincidence that the place where I left my horses was the same horse shop of the Viscount Reifel family.
Or, in fact, thats actually true.
If you look at when we came to this city, when we left Ed and others, its easy to see that its irrelevant.In the first place, there is no reason to bother to leave our horses in the same ranch and do something that catches the eye of suspicious people.
Now this bureaucrat will not be able to show up to us anymore. If he comes again, that time hes going to jail.
And he cant honestly tell his boss that he made such a blunder, which was caused by his arrogant attitude, that he couldnt make a contact since he couldnt state the clients name and his business with me, so maybe. I will be completely removed from his report.
Perhaps theyve known the rumors about angel of Balmoa Kingdom for a long time, but theyve known me here as a similar girl or a merchant who have been on the line of investigation ever since I came to this city. It wouldnt be a problem if he didnt included that in the report, as he only knew it as a result of a close investigation and listening to rumors.
And now, the bureaucrat would really think of me as .
And so, the bureaucrats were taken-in by the guarsman-oniisan.
Alright, this should all be finished.
From tomorrow onward, a free and peaceful life will begin once again. Alright
