#99: 『Shadow』
Frenzel Family villa, top office.
At this time, Riegel had returned to here, and sits before the desk, all tell Yuri tonight.
Ain and Ian stand in behind Riegel, once for a while supplement, making Yuri straight looks to sit in oneself opposite Riegel, not saying a word.
„...... why are you looking at me like this?”
Riegel a little looked at not comfortably by Yuri, can only said such a line.
But, Yuri stares is staring at Riegel, probably wants to see through general it.
Without the means.
„Your doesn't could it be that want to explain?” Yuri with does not know that is happy is the sad tone was saying to Riegel: „Can easily defeat Righteous Swordsman Riegel-san?”
Yes, Ain and Ian the matter that Riegel defeats that taking the lead robust man, told Yuri.
This made Yuri stare at Riegel's look is becoming not right, nearby Marilyn is also staring at Riegel, quite had regards the feeling that planted to prepare to torture to extort evidence.
Regarding this, Riegel actually seems very natural.
„What do you make me explain?” Riegel smiles, was saying to Yuri: „Explained me to you flamboyant?”
„Flamboyant?” Yuri showed the doubts puzzled expression.
„...... Is very fierce meaning.” The Riegel tone, uncovered the topic to be the same immediately probably, said: „Is you had not mainly asked, cannot make me tell you in your front on own initiative, am I fierce?”
Riegel did not have the narcissism to this situation.
„But was your too also odd?” Yuri mumbled: „Before I have not heard you, has practiced Sword Skill, does not know that you are can easily defeat the Righteous Swordsman expert unexpectedly.”
This is also Yuri feels the surprised place.
She investigate Riegel, had known all facts of his entire life.
But in these facts, same had not shown that Riegel has practiced Sword Skill.
Even, the attitudes and other Magician of beforehand Riegel to swordsman is widely divergent, somewhat disdains.
Magician is noble existence, swordsman only understood calamity that kills, this is the concept that most Magician hold, is a arrogant idea.
Riegel was such person, the goal is to then become Tactical-Class Magician and even Strategic-Class Magician in the past similarly, obtained Kingdom to give the nobility by this, became the aristocrat, to can only become Kingdom and aristocrat swordsman of goon does not spare a glance.
Such Riegel, in Magic School a little meaning of ignorant and incompetent, how also to possibly study Sword Skill?
Compared with excellent strength that this and Riegel this time shows, is completely mutually contradictory.
Therefore, after knowing Riegel to link unexpectedly a Righteous Swordsman rank assassin can solve with ease, Yuri is very surprised, is very surprised.
Riegel knows certainly this condition.
By the beforehand performance, shows such strength suddenly, understood that his person will definitely feel surprised and doubts.
But Riegel does not want to hide in the Yuri front.
„My only a little fortuitous encounter.” Riegel light smiling, said: „Later if possible told you again this matter.”
The implied meaning is, this matter, in this situation, is not very suitable to say.
This is natural.
The Dimensional Magic Cube matter, Riegel does not want to do it is well known.
Although Yuri is own savior, but this unthinkable matter, Riegel said even, does Yuri believe a different matter.
Therefore, Riegel did not plan that explained are too many.
Yuri as if also looked, although in the heart some were not unacceptable, the look and line of sight that but Riegel that did not fend let in this Ojou-sama heart one soft.
„Good, that did not say this matter temporarily.” Yuri spits the one breath lightly, changes the topic, said: „If discussed the result of this event only, that was is very worth happily.”
Not?
Although Riegel received the attack, but the person has not obstructed greatly did not say, but also suddenly had the strong strength, this makes people feel very relieved without doubt.
At least, present Riegel many can a little strength of self-preservation, before being insufficient again the resembles like that an allowing to be oppressed situation.
This is a good thing.
„Was a pity, the raiders committed suicide, wants to ask that who their back pulling strings are, are the Heretic Assassin people, feared that will become very difficult.”
Yuri said such words.
„Doesn't have the means to investigate?”
Riegel is inquiring.
„Investigation must certainly investigate, but can have the result, this was very difficult to say.” Yuri hesitated for a moment, said: „According to your views, they under the condition that in confirming Quest is unable to complete chose the suicide without hesitation, this showed that they have one very mature coping style, can in the instance of being defeated, to hide the secret takes the action.”
In such a case, even investigates, it is estimated that cannot investigate anything to make one be the satisfied thing.
Because the enemy has one mature coping style, had one set of standard of conduct, such being the case, they definitely considered after the person who carries out Quest died, when corpse carried off, what investigation will encounter.
„Based on this point, I believes that even if asked Court Magician to display special Magic to recall the memory fragment that these corpse experienced, it is estimated that will not have the too major role.”
Yuri thinks, very makes sense.
The expert who can discard a Righteous Swordsman rank without hesitation, lets all assassin after Quest is defeated takes poison to commit suicide, that these person of back pulling strings definitely also considered corpse will be investigated, will be displayed the Magic collection clue the condition.
„If I have not guessed wrong, these corpse body, were laid down Counter Perception Magic, Mind Magic, Memory Magic inevitably wait/etc method.” Yuri so said: „Therefore, we cannot investigate any useful clue mostly.”
hearing this, Riegel knits the brows, but he has not felt disappointed.
„Cannot investigate on the investigation.” Riegel said: „Also has the harvest in any case.”
Through this attack, Riegel understood two matters.
One is the enemy has not given up being probable to take his life.
One is the current for the time being also ability self-preservation.
Has known oneself in this world are what strength localization Riegel, did not worry very much.
Will easily be defeated by oneself including Righteous Swordsman, how the enemy wants with oneself, it is estimated that to send out Sword Saint or same level Magician again comes to be good.
But Riegel did not feel, to cope with oneself such a „a little innate skill” minor character, this back person will not hesitate to send out a Sword Saint rank exists to cope with itself.
This is the cost issue, is issue that is worth, believes that the opposite party should also move Riegel this matter to feel hesitant to the future.
Then, Riegel can also feel at ease much.
„I will invite Court Magician or the church of royal palace big priest come, can look make anything.” Yuri does not want to give up actually, said: „If there is the clue and a news in this aspect, I will inform your.”
„Ok.” Riegel nod complied.
two people also chatted the things in some details, then Riegel sets out to leave.
In the office, is only left over Yuri's group immediately.
On the Yuri face when facing Riegel the flaccid attitude vanishes all of a sudden, became unemotional.
„Said.” Yuri casts the vision to Ain and Ian body, said: „What did you two discover?”
Had the words to say Yuri keen detection to Ain and Ian.
If not for so, this two people should in Quest Completed by retreat, rather than stay here, listens to her and Riegel discusses the things of these comparison inside stories.
Ain and Ian also looked at each other one immediately mutually.
„Ojou-sama.” Ian lowered the sound, was saying to Yuri: „These assassin skills, a little probably 『Shadow』 that side person.”
Such remarks, is not only Yuri, even Marilyn's expression suddenly changes.
„Did you determine?”
Yuri unconsciously leans forward body.
„Is indefinite, but really looks like very much.” Ain also made noise, said with rare many words: „I have fought with that taking the lead Righteous Swordsman, what although he uses seems like very heavy wide blade sword, the sound that but that as well as can cause oneself all movements with the physique incompatible speed eliminates to smallest battle style, looks like Hazy Strike Sword Skill that side 『Shadow』 appropriates very much.”
hearing this, Yuri's face gradually sinks downward, places the hand on desk also bit by bit gripped tightly.
Fearful Magic Power fluctuated to infiltrate from Yuri's body slowly, making on Yuri's face appear the ice-cold color.
„in other words, attacks Riegel is not Heretic Assassin, but is Royal Family subordinate Shadow Knight, right?”
The words that Yuri said every single word or phrase, made one be afraid simply.
But this is the secret that part of position quite high people know.
In Jinas Kingdom has an assassination army.
Subordinates is called Shadow Knight in the people of this assassination army completely, only then the person of Royal Family can know that their existences, have to transfer their privilege.
Ain and Ian, since said that these raiders look like the 『Shadow』 person very much, that explained, attacks Riegel and their people, may is Shadow Knight.
Then, who can send out Shadow Knight to carry out to assassinate Quest?
The answer, takes shape.
What Yuri only don't understand is, why in Royal Family some people will stare at Riegel.
This question, Yuri has not wanted to understand, the one side remains silent Marilyn to open the mouth suddenly.
„Beforehand Riegel-san, very nearly leaves probably with Lyatt Family that thousand gold (daughter).”
Simple a few words, Yuri then all understood.
Because Lyatt Family is some Duke Family dependency.
But that Duke Family in recent years unusual is dishonest, resembles improper ideas to current King as well as some throne.
In such a case, very potential future Great Magician had the contact with the thousand gold (daughter) of this Duke Family dependency suddenly, in Royal Family some people will respond excessively , was very seemingly normal.
In other words , Riegel was involved in the political struggle, nearly becomes the sacrificial victim of political struggle.
„Marilyn, called the carriage.”
Yuri said one unemotionally.
„I must go to the royal palace.”
