Ch. 163 Tale of a Certain Brave Man 6 (side story)

“Irus.h.i.+a, ever since we went out on the subjugation you’ve had a strange face. Whats going on?”

Said Adofu in a crude manner.

I had suspected that he had been suspicious of me already but did he already have those suspicions before we left on the subjugation?

At that time I had already treated the plan as a success and may have been a little too excited.

So now, what to do?

Right now I should finish up with Adofu, since I still have to deal with the evil plague dragon, but things have become pretty complicated.

That plague dragon’s paralysis began to wear off just as I was about to confront Adofu, spoiling the fun.

For Adofu, I had thought of an end that was suitable for him, and had gone through the trouble of arranging preparations.

It is not very pleasant for me that this had become tedious.

But for the plague dragon, I wanted to torment it slowly.

Besides, that thing is also an owner of [[G.o.d’s Voice]].

There is a possibility that the story related to [[G.o.d’s Voice]] that that b.a.s.t.a.r.d priest is hiding can be drawn out from that plague dragon.

This is a rare opportunity to try to torment it with various methods.

“O…oi. Oi! What happened! What’s with the silence…”

It’s so bothersome.

I’m trying to think of how to return the favor to you, yet this idiot thinks I can’t hear him from this close a distance?

“…. My apologies. Certainly, maybe I was a little distraught. That was not like me. It might be due to the miasma from that evil dragon?”

While holding my head and staring at ground I shake my head.

How many times must I deceive this idiot?

Anyway, is this the time to be thinking like this?

When I glanced at his eyes I could still see the color of doubt within them.

Remembering my past mistake, will I repeat the same thing?

In order to restore Adofu’s trust, should I follow up on my words and actions from a little while ago?

I wonder if I got carried away a bit too much.

Erm…… Considering Adofu’s personality, once I do this…… No. But, I don’t like having someone who doubts me by my side.

I can’t bring myself to have a conversation with that dragon and slave woman, even in this situation.

“Ahh-, enough already, isn’t this good enough already? So troublesome.”

“Irus.h.i.+a?”

In order to understand my words, Adofu calls my name again.

I ignore his call and unsheathe my sword, heading towards Adofu.

“Mr. Former Knight Chief, maybe for awhile, you can practice with me? That longsword over there, won’t you pick it up?”

I tilt my head a bit to provoke him.

“What are you talking about, so suddenly.”

Adofu who lapses, retreats.

It’s slow. Do I have to thoroughly teach you from 1 to 10?

“No, in truth I wanted to see my own growth against the former Knight Chief and set this all up just for that. In fact, around four years ago, I really wanted to kill a few civilians in public so that you would have go out and handle it, but the priest wasn’t so enthusiastic about it and turned down the proposal, so here we are now. If I were to do such a thing, I’m sure former Knight Chief would become filled with a sense of justice and want to defeat me, but…..the risk for me at the time was too great.”

Adofu open his eyes and clenches his teeth.

Gradually, even the dense Adofu also seems to have noticed it in the end.

“This is why I decided to kill the fiancée and the younger brother of the Knight Chief, and then push all the blame

on the Knight Chief. Once you had entered prison, the status of a Hero became useful as there were many opportunities to use it. Really, It was easy to pretend to be a Hero. With my magic, I can create as many misleading pieces of evidence as I want, because I have many acquaintances who are good at those sort of things. In the first place, people who doubt me are not living in this country. Because both the idiots from the church did not get on well with Mr. Knight Chief, the investigation was done in a sloppy way.”

Adofu is staring at me silently.

Good, good reaction. That is the reaction I want to see.

Adofu, that fellow must be thinking of killing me now.

But, that will not come true.

Adofu’s sword will not hit me, even if it hit, it will not cause a fatal injury to me.

There is no reason to lose.

While thinking about wanting to kill you, I will continue to trample over you.
