Chapter 417: Count Sidre Bailleys

Chapter 410: Count Sidre Bailleys

Colbert said he wanted us to meet his employer, so we decided to follow him. He says he will tell us what information he knows, and he is also interested in that person.

Along the way, we asked Colbert about his employer

「Your employer, who is him?」

「My employer's name is Count Bailleys. He is the leader of the Knight of the West Gate, one of the four Knights of the royal capital」

I've heard the name, but it's bigger than what i imagined. What’s more, he isn't employed under the Count Bailleys, but the person himself. According to Colbert we were a rare and reliable person among the nobles.

Velmeria snorts in complains while listening to the conversation between the two.

「Hmph」

It seems that Velmeria hasn't completely trusted Fran yet. As she walks forward, she occasionally turns her gaze at us. Still, she didn't object and complain at Colbert's decision.

I don't know about Frederick; he is quietly walk next to her with his poker face.

We walked for more than 10 minutes in this noble's district.

Ah, by the way, we are not just simply walking. Everyone is using their covert skills and Frederick used dark magic to erase our presence.

We proceed through the noble's district like that, and arrive at a small mansion. It looks like a typical lower-class noble's mansion with no soldiers at the gate.

「Here?」

「Yea, this way」

Velmeria enters the mansion through the back gate instead of using front gate, it must be an insurance.

There are indeed soldiers in the mansion, and when he sees Velmeria, he quietly bows his head. The soldier was pretty strong. It's a pity to compare but they are stronger than the corrupt knights of Allesa, whose deputy leader was Alsand. Can't he become a knight because he is a commoner?

When i thought so, the soldier we met next were just as strong as the one before. I involuntarily appraised them, but everyone can at least use martial art, and their status are quite high.

This seems to be the average of the soldiers here. But they were stronger than the patrol soldiers we met in the royal capital.

Fran seems to have noticed that too, and she's looking at the soldiers in the sideways.

「What happened, miss Fran?」

「Soldier is strong」

「Well, it's a little special here, because they are all fighters」

Their lord was a leader of the knights, they may have been trained by him to be a good soldier.

Velmeria goes up the stairs and lead Fran into a room. It seems to be a drawing room. It wasn't flashy, but the interior was calming.

「Wait here」

「Nn」

At the same time, a female servant brings us a tea. Velmeria is still wary of us, but she seems to treat her as a guest.

『But, there is still surveillance huh』

(1 person in the attic, 1 person in the next room)

『Don't do reckless things, it's a nobleman's mansion』

(Nn)

Partly because we didn't notice Frederick, we are paying close attention to the surroundings. Skills, magic, and Urushi's nose are all mobilized. If we still can't find him with this, I think he was already in a rank S class powerhouse.

「Zuzu」

On the sofa in the drawing room with a peephole, we spend time drinking tea while paying attention to the surveillance and killing time. As expected, i need to refrain from serving large amount of food from dimensional storage in this noble mansion.

Because it's strange to suddenly serving curry here. For the time being i only allow kushiage here.

What? You want us to stop eating? Hahahaha, it's impossible.

After waiting for about 10 minutes, Vermelia returned to the drawing room where the delicious smell of kushiage remained. She is accompanied by a man of about 50 years old. However, he didn't look like an elderly person, though not very much.

He wears well-tailored, loose-fitting robe-like clothes, but he can't hide his trained body underneath. The bodybuilder also has a deep blue tint, he is clearly a high-ranking warrior. If his clothes weren't for noble, he would only look like a high-ranking adventurer

「……You seems to be relaxed」

The man speaks with a low-pitched baritone voice. If i had met him on earth, i would have recommended him to be a voice actor.

「Nn? Who?」

「You! This person is――」

「It's fine. You should pay respect to the strong, especially not in a public place like this」

Velmeria raises her anger at Fran's words, but then controls her with an uplifting attitude.

「I'm Count Sidre Bailleys, and the current employer of Colbert's and these two lords」

Was this man the Count of Bailleys? He seems to be strong enough to be entrusted as the head of the Knight Order of the royal capital. He has frank personality; he smiles and asks Fran for a handshake.

「Adventurer Fran」

「I know. I wanted to talk to you once at least. With that Black Lightning Princess」

「Do you know me?」

「Ah, of course, I was watching the martial art tournament. The battle where you won against this Colbert and the battle that defeated the Dragon Hunter Fermus. Fufufu, I’m excited, it was truly wonderful」

So, he watches the martial arts tournament huh. Then it's natural for him to know Fran. His eyes are shining like a boy listening to an adventure story.

「I couldn't exchange words at that time, but I’ll never forget you, Besides, you are His Majesty the Beast King favourite after all」

「Do you know the beast king?」

「Yea, I fought side by side with him. At that time, His Majesty the Beast King was still a B Rank adventurer and he was my subordinate」

「Was the beast king in this country?」

「At that time, I was traveling around the world as adventurer, and during my stay in the beastman kingdom, a skirmish with the Kingdom of Raidos took place, and I participated in the battle as a mercenary to earn travel expenses」

So, he participated in that war to earn travel expenses huh. As expected of the Beast King. Well, in the Beastman Kingdom, it's normal for adventurers to participate in the war, and it maybe a good source of extra income.

「The Beastman Kingdom at that time was in difficult situation due to the naval blockade of the Raidos Kingdom. So, the war is meant to return the grudge. At that time, I was the organizer of the mercenary unit, and that person was assigned to my direct unit」

Count Bailleys laughs at the fact that he was immediately pulled out from his position. The beast king at that time hid the fact that he was a royalty, so he only thinks that he was only a cheeky and interesting young adventurer.

However, it seems the Beast King and the Count still have a relationship. No, it may be said that it is a friendship that transcends position and age. After all, when the Beast King comes to the royal capital of Kranzel Kingdom, he always stays at the residence of Count Bailleys.

The Beast King who come to the royal capital after the martial arts tournament, naturally stayed at the Count Bailleys residence and asked him to take care of Fran when she come to the royal capital.

「It's his Majesty the Beast King request. I can't help but wonder, but I didn't expect to have this kind of encounter…」

Everything was true. Rather, there is no single lie. Does he trust us so much? Anyway, it seems we can consider this Count as an ally.

「Take care of me」

「Umu! Take care of me too」
