Never touch Eldmia Egga - Episode 155

It's a waste of time.

As the trial continued, the only thing Envelde felt was that sentiment..

It was a losing trial anyway. It was a discard anyway. But there was a certain benefit that had to be gained from it..

Now that it was shattered by the appearance of an unexpected person, all of this was just a waste of time..

'Rather, unexpected losses began to occur..'

The drake pilot who was thought to be dead came back alive, and the cases that tried to accuse Ragnis as if someone knew in advance and attacked the player were solved by the hands of someone related to her like a ghost..

When it was suggested that he was preparing evil deeds by inciting Baron Favaera, it goes without saying that I wanted to pull my hair out the moment the name Eldmia was mentioned. Because she was accompanied by a member of her guild and presented solid evidence, she was put in a situation where she might be caught..

Thanks to this, as soon as the trial ended today, I had everything to do..

'If we don't deal with that arrogant bastard as soon as possible, I have no idea what he will do in the future..'

Contact points with Favaera must be clearly erased. If you make a mistake, your connection with demons will be revealed..

At the same time, the situation has now reached that even the character Eldmia Egar has to do something..

'I don't know how much I know and how much is true... but there is a possibility that I know too much..'

I was embarrassed without even realizing it when they tried to trick me by mentioning the name of the Iron Blood Princess, but the story was so absurd that even if you think about it a little, you can tell it was a lie..

Deceiving others by mixing truth and lies is the most basic of all. It's outrageous that someone so young has beaten me, but it's largely because the story about Delt was so shocking..

'What a waste. It's such a waste.'

He said he was only 15 years old..

It is said that he was 14 years old when he cut down Delt, but what kind of 14-year-old boy could behead a knight who had reached the level of expert? If I hadn't experienced it myself, I would have thought it was a fictional story, like something out of an article or novel that children read..

But it is reality, and it is hostile. In that case, even if that talent is a waste, there is no choice but to crush the roots..

"...So, today's court session ends here. The trial tomorrow..."

As soon as the trial, which was headed towards an obvious conclusion, was over, Envelde got up and left his seat..

On the other side, there was no time to pay attention to the people of the royal family who treated Ragnis particularly warmly and took care of him, and to Ragnis, who responded to them with a smile. Contrary to what he had been told, he had no intention of reacting to the earnest gaze sent by Viscount Ettaville, who was close to the guillotine due to the increasingly despairing judgments he was making..

This is the person who was originally intended to be disposed of at this opportunity. He had no reason to regret it anymore, as he was indebted to him and had lived as a dragon pilot who was used by him..

Envelde was running out of time just to move forward and overcome the adversity that was right in front of him..

'If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have attended the trial at all..'

Even if something is given, as long as you are in the court, you will receive a proper report only after a full day has passed. No matter how much I train my subordinates, more than half a day is wasted. Since he chose his subordinates carefully, he did not doubt their abilities..

The only problem was the time I was literally throwing away on the ground..

As soon as I left the courthouse with the mindset that I could save every minute and second by moving at least as quickly as possible, what caught my eye was his aide and coachman..

"Count...!"

But why?.

Before I could read his bewildered expression and feel questions and concerns, Envelde's eyes were looking elsewhere without my knowledge..

And at the end of the line of sight, a young man with unusual height and black hair with short hair on the back and sides like a soldier waves his hand expressionlessly as soon as he recognizes his gaze. Today, for some reason, he wasn't dressed like an adventurer, but instead dressed in the uniform of the Levien family, but that didn't make him look any different..

Even though this is only my second time meeting him in person, he has a natural knack for inciting people's anger. However, Envel De realized that rather than the guy's reaction, something white in his hand was particularly capturing his attention, and he opened his eyes sheepishly..

Envelde's head, realizing that what was caught at the end of his gaze strengthened by the aura was a white envelope, stretched out toward an ominous guess..

'no. That doesn't make sense.'

It was more likely that the young guy was born with the ability to fight than it was that his guess was reality..

Aren't the circumstances appropriate? A white letter envelope to show off after showing off your friendship with the first princess, who is called the white star of the empire. Even Envelde decided to admit that it had been a long time since he had faced such a naked yet confident psychological battle and a situation in which he had no choice but to be shaken..

Therefore, Envelde turned his head again with a resolute attitude, as if he was not worried at all, and looked at his aide and asked..

"What's going on are you so upset?."

The subordinate opened his mouth as if he didn't know what to say first, but Envelde was more curious than angry. He was never like this. She was a person who valued that calmness and deliberately took him by her side. If she's this upset, there's definitely something wrong with her..

There was something to guess. After meeting with Eldmia two days ago, he ordered his subordinates to complete a temporary inspection and report just in case. Maybe something went wrong with them..

"Don't panic. Because there are many people watching. Just explain the situation in order.."

As these were issues that should not be revealed carelessly, no matter how urgent the situation was, it was necessary to remain calm. After waiting so patiently, the entourage finally regained her composure and opened her mouth..

"Baron Rubili and the person who serves the dream attached to him have lost contact.."

"...Doesn’t this guy sometimes try to hide himself for unknown reasons? Since the regular report went smoothly, he can afford to wait for the next report.."

"Well... it seems a little different this time. There is now an uproar at his home. From what I heard, even if you disappear like that, you're sure to get a message, but this time it's gone completely.."

Did they say that being ignorant is brave? Baron Rubilla was the only idiot who had no hesitation in disobeying the king's orders and training a dragon, so he was someone who could not be abandoned right away..

So, they were closely managing the dream by hiring people to serve it, but it suddenly disappeared.?

A thousand thoughts came to mind for a moment, but Envelde shook his head and answered after clearing away the negative speculations..

"...I wait for those who serve their dreams. If there was anything wrong, I would have reported it. Is that it??"

"no. The top was also wiped out.."

"...Top? annihilation?"

"...yes."

Feeling so dumbfounded and empty that she couldn't even get angry, Envelde hoped that the reports that her slave crew had been destroyed again weren't real..

However, there was no way he would have posted a report like this without even properly checking on the merchants near the capital, so he gritted his molars and barely managed to ask back..

"When... when?...?"

There are even rumors going around among the nobles that they were satisfied with the night market that took place a few days ago.?

"It is said that the capital patrol discovered the devastated camp during a routine patrol. According to information, it appears to have been around two to three days old, and most of the victims had their throats cut...."

"You killed so many people without a word? Hunter Merza also uses an Auror.?"

"He... died without even being able to properly resist...."

Envelde felt like she had exhausted all her patience just by not being able to change even her facial complexion. She felt like the world was spinning and she felt nauseous..

But the subordinate's words are not over yet..

"and..."

"There's more...?"

"While you were at the tribunal, an official letter from the Empire arrived at the royal palace.."

Envelde let out a long sigh, barely suppressing the urge to collapse due to a strong sense of helplessness. After all the ridiculous bad news, there was a story that gave us some breathing room..

At the same time, thinking that Eldmia had only waved nothing but a white envelope without knowing this fact, a laugh escaped my lips even though I was serious and depressed..

After all, a child is just a child. In the end, this is an information battle...

"The Empire... will never take lightly the slanderous campaign against Margrave Levien, and will spare no effort in uncovering those who have dishonored the Empire's friends and loyal subjects...."

"what?"

Envelde had no choice but to throw off the mask she had barely maintained until now..

What on earth did I hear??

"The empire... supported Ragnis.?"

"yes. Even the letter was not delivered to the royal family through an imperial messenger.."

The subordinate's gaze moved in the direction where Envelde was looking just moments ago..

please. Envelde, hoping not, turned her head to follow his gaze, feeling her whole body stiffen..

Eldmia was standing there..

Still waving a pure white envelope in one hand, with a face full of scorn.

"Eldmia...!"

While making a vulgar hand gesture, extending the middle finger toward oneself with the hand that is not holding the letter,.
