Chapter 183 - Allen Cell and Political Marriage [34] (2/2)

「Allen Rodore, you have『good eyes』.」

「…Good eyes?」

「It’s not clouded by any color. It’s clear and straightforward. I wonder why… When I look at those eyes, I get drawn in. Before I know it, I feel like wanting to lend a hand.」

Fu said, finishing the cup of tea, and stood up.

「Now, that’s all I wished to talk about. You can do what you want.」

「…You’re not going to stop me?」

「Unfortunately, today I am going to devote myself to deciphering history books. I didn’t get orders to『stop Allen Rodore』either. And I can’t hope to stop you with my power in the first place.」

He slowly closed his eyes, speaking with such humility.

「Your companions from just now – they seem to have met with some unexpected difficulties with the tight security of Numero’s residence. Five kilometers north of here, I hear them hiding in a storage shed in the『Numero Grand Garden』.」

「W-What do you mean!?」

「I can listen to the『whispers of the wind』and pick up on conversations within a ten-kilometer radius. Five people uttering the name『Allen Rodore』is not common in the Empire. It’s undoubtedly the voice of your companions.」

Fu suddenly frowned, after saying in an indifferent manner.

「…Hmm? This is…」

「Did something happen?」

「…You had better hurry. Apparently, the wedding has begun.」

「What!? That’s way too early! There should be at least three more hours left!」

There was still ten hours left until the wedding when I parted with Clown-san.

From then on, we went to the Phantom Spirit Laboratory and infiltrated the Empire through the spot.

After that, we got the black cloak from Zack, and now I’m here.

(…No matter how you look at it, it hasn’t been ten hours.)

It should only be around seven hours or so.

「Schedule means nothing to that arrogant Numero. That garbage truly thinks he is the center of the world.」

「Damnit!」

I immediately stood up and started running toward the rooftop.

「I’m praying for the success of the operation in secret.」

「Aa!」

After obtaining various information from Fu Rudras, I ran towards Numero’s residence at full speed.
