Chapter 92 - Family Reunion

Family Reunion

It wasn’t that I didn’t trust Eric.

However, I had not quite expected it to be this effective.

They were great nobles, the Marquis and his wife, and they had dropped to their knees in a flash.

And so I explained it to them again.

“His Majesty has asked me to investigate an incident involving vampires who found a way to trick the divine barrier…”

“Is that so.”

“It goes without saying, but you must not tell anyone else that you have seen Vampire Lords within the city.”

“I would die before revealing such information.”

“Well, that might be taking it too far.”

“No, as the representative of the king, your words are those of royalty. And as such, we will do what is expected of us as nobles.”

“I see. As for that…”

If they took everything I said as the words of the king, I would have to be very careful about what I said.

That was annoying.

“Then I will tell you in advance when I am about to speak on the king’s behalf, but otherwise, please treat me as you would anyone else.”

“But…”

“If you don’t, I shall not be able to speak to you at all.”

I said with a laugh.

“If you insist…”

This seemed to have satisfied the couple for now.

“By the way, don’t tell anyone that I am representing the king.”

“Of course.”

After that, the Marquis and his wife obeyed me willingly. The authority of the king’s representative was impressive.

The Marquis and his wife now knew that there was a way to break through the barrier.

It would now be necessary for the king to give them some kind of office and keep them on his side.

I’m sure that Eric had it all figured out.

We left the room that had been their prison, and passed the servants’ rooms and entered the hallway.

“We should go and meet Philly.”

“Is she close by?”

“Well, she is close by, yes. She was imprisoned in a different room within this mansion, after all.”

“What…”

And so I took them to Philly’s room.

I knocked on the door and called to her.

“Philly. I’ve brought Marquis Mastafon and his wife.”

There was the sound of a chair screeching very loudly and then the door swung open and Philly came flying out.

“Father! Mother!”

“Philly. I’m so glad you’re…”

“Ruff-ruff.”

The three of them cried as they clung to each other. Tama ran, circling them happily.

His tail was wagging.

“How sweet…”

“Everything is resolved for now…”

“Groof.”

Shia and Grulf were also watching the family and wagging their tails.

The intimate mood lasted for a while until we suddenly heard a loud voice.

“Daddy, uncle, over here!”

“Ah, the gatekeepers are unconscious.”

“This is a serious matter.”

It seemed that Serulis had brought Goran. The mansion became very loud all at once.

“Locke. Where are you?”

“Over here!”

I answered. Goran and the others came quickly.

To my surprise, Eric was right behind Goran. But why?

“Yo-your Majesty… It is the height of honor to have you visit our humble house…”

Marquis Mastafon and his wife kneeled once again.

“Raise your faces.”

And then Eric continued,

“Tell me what happened here. Locke.”

“From start to end, please.”

And so I explained.

I had wanted to cut the rat hunt short, but Goran wanted to hear the entire story, so I couldn’t.

“I see. So that’s what happened.”

Eric nodded.

Eric had asked many questions whenever there was something that wasn’t clear.

But Goran was silent as he listened to the entire time.

His fists were shaking.

“Hey, Locke!”

“What? You look a little angry there.”

“You ran off alone again! You knew there was a possibility of an Evil God, didn’t you? And that there could be multiple High Lords!”

“True. But High Lords aren’t really…”

“That’s not the point! Call for support!”

“I thought it was best to hurry.”

“Yes, that is important too. But this was a plan that the enemy took years to set up!”

“That’s true.”

The butler had started working here two years ago.

“So what difference would it have made if you were delayed for ten or fifteen minutes!!”

“Uh, oh. You know, you might be right.”

“Why didn’t you tell me anything!”

“…Sorry.”

Goran was right, so I couldn’t argue with him.

His hands were shaking angrily and so Serulis grabbed them.

“Daddy, Mister Locke said he’s sorry, so…”

“…You better not do something like that again.”

“I understand.”

I apologized and then Grulf came and licked my hand.

He was probably trying to encourage me.

I patted him on the head.

“I understand the situation here now. Locke, you must be very tired? You can leave the rest to us.”

“Thank you. I’ll leave the rest to you then, Eric, Goran.”

“Don’t worry about it.”

“Goran. About the enemy base…”

“Ah, where the Evil God was? I will send a select team of A Rank Adventurers to search the place. Leave it to us.”

“Thank you.”

Just as I was about to leave, Philly grabbed my arm.

“It must have been hard for you as well, Philly. You should rest as much you can.”

“Locke. I can’t be anymore grateful to you.”

“Don’t mention it. It’s just my job.”

“But, thank you.”

“If you ever need any help, come and pay us a visit. We’re just two houses away.”

“That’s awfully close by.”

“Yes. You can visit too, Tama.”

“Ruff.”

And with that, I returned to my mansion.

The Hero’s party was attacked by a large group of powerful devils. The party will no doubt be annihilated if this were to go on. One member of the party, the strongest mage, Rakku, decided to stop the enemies in their tracks. 「Leave it to me here and go!」 「But……」 「Hey, I’ll catch up immediately, alright?」 Rakku mindlessly defeated the enemies, over and over again. Using his special skill, Learning, Rakku learned the devils’ magic. As he studied and utilised the devils’ abilities such as Drain Touch, he continued fighting, without rest nor sleep. The devils got stronger and stronger, but Rakku too rapidly grew. Rakku battled for 10 years, until no devils came at him. Rakku returned to the capital, and was surprised. His own name became the currency, and a gigantic statue of him, albeit fairly beautified, was erected. Due to him relentlessly absorbing the vitality of the devils, he had become young again. An appearance unfitting of his age. Godly abilities. 「I stand out too much」 Rakku concealed his true identity, and decided to pretend being a novice adventurer. Rakku, disguising as a F-rank warrior despite being an S-rank mage. His adventure in this now peaceful (?) world starts now!
