Chapter 35: Darkness of Empire(Bernhardt’s Point of View)
A dry sound can be heard from the end of the dark, damp corridor.
I don’t like this place because it always has a foul smell that stings my nose.
Well, I don’t think anyone likes it, but…
This is a prison for felons.
“Did you say something?”
I asked through the bars.
“This is! Your Highness! you didn’t have to come all the way to a place like this…”
Behind the bars, an interrogator appears to be questioning the attackers we’ve just captured.
The attacker is lying on the ground, apparently pretty badly battered.
We’ve captured all the black-clad men who attacked the Grand Duke of Rozenstone and his family, but the man lying on the floor appears to be the ringleader.
“No. I just wanted to get the truth from these guys directly. And what did they tell you?”
No. They didn’t tell me anything. They are very well trained.”
The interrogator shakes his head ruefully.
Even Grand Duchess Rezerotta, the greatest magician in the Kingdom of Kalkstein, had her work cut out for her. They must be very skilled.
They’re probably trained to withstand severe torture.
Marie took them all out. No. It was a magical girl who just happened to be passing by, which is even more impressive…”
“Open this door. I’ll talk to them myself.”
“N-No. I won’t let the crown prince do that!”
The interrogator shakes his head.
“No matter how much torture you put him through, he won’t talk.”
“Ku…kukuku. The crown prince is right. we won’t say anything. Kill us quickly.”
The attacker, who was on the ground, looks up and chuckles.
“If I can’t get a confession, I’ll just have to look directly into your head.”
“Huh?”
I break the cell with my magic and grab the attacker by the head.
◇◇◇
“Alois, catch these guys. Right now.”
I’ll give the list to Alois, the Crown Prince’s chamberlain. It’s a list of all the information I’ve extracted from the heads of the attackers.
“Now? But it’s already late. Why don’t we do it early in the morning?”
“I’ll be too late in the morning! You need to take matters into your own hands and keep them under wraps.”
The capture of the attackers has not yet been announced, but it is possible that someone in the Kingsguard is involved.
We can’t let them escape under the cover of darkness.
Alois sighs loudly and says “What a pain in the ass…” and dissolves into the darkness.
He was not very eloquent, but he agreed.
He is a good chamberlain, but Alois has a secret job: He is the head of the intelligence department…
“In the meantime, I will inform my father.”
I am just making my way through the gardens of the Crown Prince’s Palace when I spot Marie, Ruria, and the others.
“Are they out for a walk?”
She seems to be standing in front of the fountain, looking at the moon. Marie’s blonde hair shines in the moonlight. She’s beautiful. She’ll be a beauty when she grows up.
No. I am not attracted to the beauty of form!
As I approached to say a few words to Marie, I noticed a strange girl standing in front of them.
“Who is she? That’s…”
“Eliana?” I heard Marie’s voice. Does she know her?
