Chapter 71: v4c14

The back door was surprisingly tough, and it took Gizarte and his men a long time to knock it open.

Finally, they stepped into the mansion.

It was indeed an extravagant house, but it was not a castle or a fortress. The structure is not built in such a way as to prevent invaders, so even if one enters for the first time, it is not difficult to get lost.

"Deran and his men have already captured the target ,"

One of subordinates blurted out in the back.

“I don't care who caught her “

Gizarte said as he walked down the hallway. He was worried about escaping through the back door, but it seemed to be all right.

　On the way, he sees the dead body of a servant girl and frowns.

(A shot to the back. Is this Delan's axe?)

It's not like this woman resisted. Killing for nothing is a waste of time. What if the girl had run away when he was doing this?

2nd floor .

　Gizarte went up the stairs.

　The corpses of many servants were lying in the corridor of the second floor.

'Hey, hey, ...... what are our guys doing? They're not even young kids going off to war for the first time."

Regardless of age or sex, the corpses, cut to pieces, lay here and there in the corridor.

There were probably as many as 20 people in total.

Gizarte had seen the body of old butler who had accompanied the young lady from Galentele. His eyes were wide open, staring into the void.

　Ghisarte sighed.

'What a waste of ...... time, isn't it?

(The skilled members of the fresh blood mercenaries are repeatedly killing in front of the intended prey for not even a single copper coin. What's in it for me to kill these guys? What if target runs away while we doing this? Those idiots need to be given a lesson .)

"They're doing it with such flair, aren't they?"

One of his men said happily in the back.

"If we kill them all, we will be able to take all the money they had.'

　”That's true. But that's only after we've accomplished what we came for.”

"I hope the third floor isn't a heap of corpses, too."

Disgusted, Gizarte climbed the stairs.

When Gizarte went up to the third floor, he stopped when he saw something he didn't expect to see there.

There was a familiar small man.

"......Void."

　Boyd, who had jumped over the wall first, was lying in the hallway just off the stairs.

He is already dead.

(He had been hit with a blow from .......)

　His neck and torso had almost separated. The only wound he received was the fatal one.

Boyd's a bastard, he screwed up," o

　"Did he screw up? Was that really true?"

(Even if he did mess up something, how could someone as skilled as Boyd be killed with a single blow?)

　(Is there anyone in this mansion who could do such a thing?)

Still wondering, they proceeded down the corridor and found one, two, and three more dead bodies.

　All of them were the corpses of his men.

"Are you kidding me, ......?"

One of his subordinates growled behind Gizarte's back.

　" What the hell is going on?"

Gizarte's hunch as a mercenary told him something was wrong.

　(What's going on? It was supposed to be a simple job, just like wringing a baby's hands, wasn't it?)

(In fact, the men on guard were easily taken out. The only people left in the house are the servants who don't have the strength to fight.)

　(So why are so many of my men being killed?)

(Was there a secret agent among my men ?)

(I haven't received any such report.)

(..... No way.)

Ghisarte suddenly felt the sensation he had felt that day come back to him.

　The Fire Dragon Mercenaries were killed back then

The jet-black riders, who were supposed to be far outnumbered, were wiping out their red-armored allies one after the other. The allies in front of them are being torn away.

The sensation that one's own unit is about to be attacked by a powerful enemy, unprotected.

A crisis beyond the realm of expectation, a crisis that can't be dealt with.

(　......No way.)

　 (I I made another mistake?)

　Delan was in front of the door he was searching for.

　He was in a battle stance with two axes at the ready. Next to him was another men. There were four survivors in all. Gizarte was shocked to see that half of them had already been defeated.

　Right in front of Derain.

There was the person who had brought this situation upon them.

Standing against the door, holding a long sword that is unbalanced in length with his body, is ...... one of the children?

(A kid ......?

　Gizarte growled.

“I am not a kid," the boy said.

　 The boy stared at Gizarte, his eyes familiar.

"I'm a warrior."
