Chapter 151 (1/2)

Chapter 15:Predicament part 1

The place that Edgar entered was the central street’s back lane

Unlike thethis lane

In addition, since there wasn’t h, the entire place seemed to be enveloped in a dark and ominous atmosphere

Suspicious looking buyers could be seen hanging around the shops lined up here

I could tell that the iteoods

Poison bags that were cut off from demons

Accessories that were stripped off fallen travellers

I felt likeitems sold here

「This is quite a nice place」 (Regis)

「Isn’t it? It’s also da this theout bad deeds It would be perfect if there are no ar)

「Would it be all right for is)

「Huess it will be fine, isn’t it? Besides, there are shops here that are aimed at nobles too One of the exa with poisons」

Hou, you seemed to be well-informed

As expected of soh the life of a mercenary

She was able to lead through the dark side of a place

Besides, I had not realized that there was a place like this in the Imperial City

It’s frightening to know that such an exclusive place is actually located not far from the main street

「The public security here is not good so don’t leave ar)

Edgar see reliable

She would look cool with that line if she wasn’t staggering due to her drunkenness when she said it

I wonder if she couldn’t decide on so smarter

「Is that villa or sois)

「If I were to sleep in a place like this, I would end up encountering robbers Once I wake up, I will be stripped off not only alltoo so I’ll refrain froar)

「True」 (Regis)

It’s highly likely that you will be attacked due to your good looks

I guess our destination is slightly further from this place then

As we advanced through the winding path, the number of shops in the vicinity decreased

Then Edgar stepped into an alley

As if to flee fro out

The cleanliness of the environment here has certainly left much to be desired

We ended up at a crossroad as we advanced through the alley, and we s after

Finally, at a place that seear lit up a fire

I guess it ht be hard to see since it was too dark

「…Etto, it should be around here if I aar)

Edgar lightly tapped the stones on ground

Shortly after that, she discovered a large stone that appeared to be slightly protruding froround

When she appliedthat sounds like gakon as the stone sank

Edgar then thrust her arm deeper inside and pulled up a handle

「Soi-!! 」(Edgar)

As soon as she did that, a part of the ground raised up

Slight wind could be felt coap It appears that there is a basement underneath

I wonder if that slate was e hidden

Once the size of the opening is big enough for a huar led me inside

「It’s been a long ti the civil war between the nobles nine years ago 」(Edgar)

「noble’s civil as it」(Regis)

Speaking of which, I have heard of this incident before There was a conflict between the southern noble district and northern noble district nine years ago in the Imperial City

Even though it ended after the King stepped in to arbitrate the dispute, there were heavy casualties a the soldiers and sentries

Strangely, the concealment of the state between the nobles occurred at the sa it shrouded in mystery

At that time, the house of Din received only the post report after the incident

However, the intelligence network received wasn’t really friendly to the nobles in reions

It made me came to the realization that people ere born in a place like this do not have adequate access to information

「This was my hideout at that time I was e then 」(Edgar)

「Is that so 」(Regis)

「This is a great place Once you bring the enemies back here, you can even torture them as you like Above all, there wouldn’t be any witnesses at all 」(Edgar)

Stop saying so that sounds so ominous!

I could see a dark sinister shadow loo but a villain!

Although some points were deducted since your cheeks were flushed due to alcohol

As a result, regardless of how ht only look like villain B at the most

Well, I guess that was because you don’t have a villainous look on your face now

If you were to put on a dress, tried acting ht even look like a princess to me

It made me wonder but, why did you put your charm to waste all this while?

It is a mystery that is comparable to the Seven Wonders of the World

We descended down into a diround place

I could feel the huainst my cheeks

It felt strangely warm once I am inside

As soon asin the air, I understood it well that this place hasn’t been used for many years

However, it was strange that the teh ere deep inside

Was there soainst cold effect here?

Edgar as in the lead, has a serious look on her face as she touched so with her hand

「Here is the alcohol……」(Edgar)

「In the end it’s still alcohol to you?! 」(Regis)

Edgar started rolling a barrel all of a sudden

She’s already the incarnation of alcohol

She still wants to drinkdrunk?

Even though it was just a small room, the stockpiles were in abundant

There were plenty of preserved food in the basement too

Although, these were preserved food froo Are they still safe?

「Uwaaa…there areon the hardtack The fried o has shapeshi+fted into soar)

「Isn’t that no good already!? 」(Regis)

In the end, the alcohol was the only one that was still in a good condition, wasn’t it?

The state of all the food inside here was far worse than the state of a rice cooker that was left unattended for half a year

I have a feeling that I will likely coh this place

While I was sar’s voice when she spoke out

「Well, this is not , don’t you Regis?」(Edgar)

「Of course Although, I already noticed it earlier ere in the city……」(Regis)

He has splendidly taken the bait

Edgar’s drunken act worked

Since her perforht have been really drunk

However, that ht be the reason the enemy think it would be easier to aim at us too

Edgar and I turned to the back at the same time

Footsteps could be heard resounding through the narrow room

There are three of us all together

Turning off ic, my hand reached out to the knife at my waist

I could feel the thick killing intent overflowing from the other party,

「You’re here aren’t you? Horgos’ assassin-san 」(Edgar)

Edgar pointed at the vicinity of the entrance one step before me

Thereupon, the figure of a tallout from the depths

This guy has been following us ever since we left the ic shop’s area

The htly in an inhue

「……Kill」(assassin)

A repulsive voice

The entire face was concealed by a black cloth, revealing only the area around the eyes

The parts around his forehead appeared to be bulging slightly I wonder if he’s wearing ahachigane

Holding sinister looking Odachi in both hands, he threw that single word out coldly

(Rin: Odachi is a type of traditional japanese sword)

「Were you the one who did that to ar)
