CHAPTER 148 – THE DEMON SWORD WIELDER’S EXPRESS HOME DELIVERY

The next day .

In the place we’re staying in Malonei, Delfina Merchant Company’s building .

In Delfina’s room, she is working at her desk from the morning .

And I am watching that on a sofa a few distance away .

?What a good woman?

?I’d really like to ask your standard of “a good woman” just for once?

?Women that I would like to make love with, that’s all though??

?That sounds simple, but that isn’t answering the question though?

?Is that so? It’s just simple?

?I’m asking here alright . How about making it more into words??

?I am . It’s women that I would like to make love with?

?That doesn’t count as putting it into words?

I could feel Eleanor rolling her eyes inside my head .

?In the first place, what would you do with it if I put it into words??

?……?

?Eleanor??

?I-I’m going to guide Hikari to not be like that?

For some reason, the feeling that flows from Eleanor changed into something restless .

What is she being restless for?

?You don’t need to worry about Hikari . She’s my daughter after all?

?Hmph, who’d believe that?

?You’re teasing me, calling me a doting parent but you’re worried about that??

It’s been a while but I’m feeling troubled . Just a little though .

And when I’m chatting with Eleanor about such senseless things, there was a knock on the door and one woman entered inside .

It’s a young intelligent-looking woman wearing glasses .

Her face features are the same type with Delfina, a beautiful type rather than being described as cute .

?I have something to report, Master?

?Did something happen??

?Yes……?

After the woman made a small nod, she glanced at me .

It looks like it’s something she can’t speak of with an outsider .

?Do not mind it, speak?

?……yes . A riot is taking place in the town?

?A riot? Suppress it just like as usual?

?Just like as usual??

?Yes, it’s this?

Delfina made a gesture of grabbing something from her chest .

It’s similar to when I took out that dark thing . I see, riots that is caused by that, it is still happening up until now huh .

?That’s, Master……it is getting more frequent?

?More frequent??

?It suddenly occurred earlier in the morning . There are 7 cases with just the ones that have already been reported, and there are five places that clearly seems strange although there is no report?

?……?

Delfina narrowed her beautiful eyebrows .

?There’s riots in 12 places??

?At the least, that is?

She glanced at me and replied .

Delfina who received the report got into deep thought .

?Suppressing them……will take time huh?

?Is that so??

?We have not expected that this level of riot will occur at once . We’ve prepared a vigilante group that would take the place of Aegina’s officials, but it’s scale is……?

?I see . Delfina???

Delfina raised a hand towards me the instant I called her name .

She faced her palm towards me, and I felt like I was told to shut up .

While retaining that pose, Delfina thought for awhile .

?Request help from the adventurer’s guild . The reward is thrice the normal . Tell them as well that double of that will be paid to the adventurers who can suppress several places today?

?Understood, Master?

The woman made a bow and left the room .

I completely understood Delfina’s intention . Her intention of wanting to take care of it without my help .

?It’s her woman’s pride?

I know .

I answered to Eleanor without saying it out loud .

I thought that I should let Delfina do so if she wants to .

Well, hearing her instructions, I felt like it would be taken care of, although it would take time .

Since that is the case, it might be better if I’m not here .

I stood up from the sofa and told Delfina .

?I remembered something that I need to do, I’ll go back now to my mansion . I’ll come here by???

?Master!!?

Pan!!, the door was slammed open .

The woman from earlier rushed into the room with a pale face .

?What happened??

?A-Aegina . The Aegina army, it’s heading towards here?

?……that’s what’s happening?

Delfina clenched her teeth strong enough that I could hear it from here .

?

At Malonei’s outskirts, above the town wall .

Coming here with Delfina, I looked far away with my vision multiplied 777 times .

?They’re here . Just roughly, about 2000?

?Is that so……?

?They have a flag too, it’s this mark?

I released my aura and made the mark of the flag that I saw .

?It’s the Prime Minister Prince’s flag?

?I think that I’ve heard about that title?

?Aegina Kingdom’s First Prince, the Prime Minister Prince Kimon Mo Aegina . Kakeru-sama have met him once?

?I see?

I can’t remember his face, and I could only somewhat remember his name, but I remember that Prime Minister Prince title .

?That means, that guy’s leading his army here huh?

?Yes . At the same time……I could see it now . This time’s mastermind?

?Hou??

?Currently, riots are occurring in Malonei . The cause is that dark thing?

?Yeah?

?At this point right now, it’s scale has exceeded the amount that I can handle, and there is also the possibility that it would continue to expand . And, the following is what’s important?

Delfina let out a sigh .

?Although it’s a town that I bought with money, this town is still nominally Aegina’s . That’s the reason why officials just in name are dispatched here?

?I see?

I understood .

?He wants to send soldiers in the form of riot suppression, but would continue to garrison here even after the riots’ are suppressed?

?Yes . He would not be able to send soldiers if nothing is happening . If he dispatched an army to recapture a town that is nominally under their Kingdom’s rule, they would be a laughingstock of the neighboring kingdoms . However, if a large scale riot has occurred……?

?He’d be able to send soldiers without any worries, huh?

Delfina nodded .

?If that army would be able to enter the town and suppress even one riot, it would be my defeat?

I looked at the dust clouds that the army is making from far away . It’s about 30 minutes before they arrive, huh .

?……please help me?

Delfina gave away .

She probably thought of wanting to do something about it herself, but judging from the situation, there’s nothing good with not asking for my help .

?Leave it to me?

?We will take care of the support, and the aftermath?

?Give me the information where the riots are occurring . You should take care of the aftermath later?

?Eh? But if signs of the riot, and if the people in act remains???

While Delfina is tilting her head, I turned around and looked at the town .

And just in time, a riot is occurring 200 meters away from here .

People who had clearly lost their sanity are fighting against each other .

?Just look?

I opened my Different Dimension Warehouse and took out my Warp Feather . I used that and warped to the place of the riot .

I warped nearby and grasped the details of the situation . There are ten odd men fighting in a melee battle .

Each one of them has lost their sanity and were raising beast-like voices .

Some of them were even bleeding from their fists, but they continued to throw punches without a care .

?Are we doing it??

I heard Eleanor’s excited voice .

?Your turn is for later?

?Mu?!?

?First……I’ll do this?

I used the Warp Feather again .

I warped taking those guys who are fighting and those who are possessed by that dark thing with me .

The destination is my mansion at Reiusu, at the training grounds in front of the slave soldier’s barracks .

?Your Excellency!?

Nikki was there . It looks like she’s having her self-training .

?How many slave soldiers are around??

?Sir! Everyone other than the second platoon is here sir!?

?Assemble here . I’ll bring more and more of them . Surround them here, do not let anyone get away?

?Sir yes sir!?

Nikki entered the barracks, and I confirmed the slave soldiers rushing out one next to the other .

I also saw Nana within them .

I got relieved after seeing that and returned to Malonei using the Warp Feather . I returned to where Delfina is .

?Kakeru-sama!?

?Just like that, there wouldn’t be any evidence if I take them to another place right??

?……yes!?

?And so, I’ll rely on you about the information . Will you make it in time??

?I will make it in time?

I looked at Delfina nodding clearly and brought her back to the merchant company using the Warp Feather .

She processed the information that her subordinates gathered, and using that, I warped to the said area and warped those possessed people to the training grounds .

When the Aegina army arrived, the possessed people had completely disappeared from Malonei .
