167 Chapter 24   Temptation






'Of course, all at once with transition magic: ......

 Tifana also knew that Cain could use the transference magic that was said to be legendary.
 Only a few people in the kingdom knew of that fact, and as the head of the Kingsguard of the Esfort Kingdom, she had been briefed on it by the higher ups.
 However, when he was explained to me, I thought, "If it's Cain, it can't be helped ......," but I recognized that it consumes a large amount of magic power and is about the extent that a few people will transfer.
 No one is aware that this entire cage can transfer hundreds of people in one go.
 However, it was not a quandary to do it in front of other students and teachers.

 One by one, they descended from the convoy they were carrying to protect the students.
 The students' expressions were gloomy at the hundreds of attackers.
 No matter how much they fought off the attackers and the crisis was over, if they made a mistake, their fate could have been changed.
 Terestia and the others who got out of the convoy also moved underneath Cain with the tied up attackers at their side.

''Cain-sama, what on earth is this raid ......?''

 Cain felt he had to talk to Telestia and Silk, and only Riltana was given a little excuse to sit down.

'Actually, ----'

 The Marquis of Corzino and Viscount Bard, from the Kingdom's side, and former Senator Maluf, from the Republic of Ilestin, colluded to plan the attack.
 The other students explained in a nonchalant manner that they were going to be kidnapped as slaves by the dark guild of the Irstin Republic.
 The expressions on their faces as they listened to Cain's explanation to the end are dark.

''Mo, maybe if this continues, we'll go to war......
Yes, if anything happened to anyone else, there would be a war. ......
We managed to prevent it, but both the kingdom and the republic are going to be in a lot of trouble with this attack. ......

 As a kingdom, we can't give an answer here right now.
 They were to return to the kingdom early and come to a conclusion, including the king.

 The students and teachers, other than Cain, left for the kingdom, preceded by half of the Kingsguard that Tifana had brought with her as an escort.
 It's a very good idea to have a good idea of what you want to do with it, but it's not a good idea to have a good idea of what you want to do with it.

''Okay, so let's get started: ......

 Cain nodded at Tijuana's words and crammed the captured attackers into one convoy after another.
 Two convoys, and then pushing them into the cage while being stuffed into an octopus.

''It's okay for Viscount Bard and the others, as well as Malf and the others, to be in King's Landing, isn't it?''
Yeah, that's fine. We can't split up the surveillance for this many people, can we?

 Initially, it was planned to capture Malph and the others at the border filling station, but it was not possible to split the soldiers, so they were to be brought together and taken to the royal capital once.

 First of all, he touched the convoy carrying Viscount Bard and the others, and linked Tijuana's hand with his other hand.

''Transition.''

 One convoy and Cain and Tijuana disappeared from the scene.


 ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇.

 All of the Kingsguard in King's Landing were armed in a state of emergency.
 When Tijuana found out that Cain and his group were going to be attacked by the information Tijuana got, Tijuana flew out of King's Landing and the remaining knights were defending the royal castle.

 -- and an iron box suddenly appeared in the training grounds.

 The remaining knights blew their whistles and signaled an emergency.
 And then a group of armed knights, zorozoing and vigorously armed, rushed into the training grounds.

 The two who appeared there were Tifana and Cain. And a convoy.
 When the knights saw Cain's appearance, they sighed, "I knew it was Sir Silford .......

''The raiders had already been captured. How many more round trips to carry the raiders! Get your prison ready.
""Yes."

 At Tifana's words, the members of the Order of Knights crisply dropped the raiders off and took them to the prison.
 Cain repeated the transition and carried all the raiders to the royal capital.

 After the marauders were dealt with, the remaining knights in the king's capital were lined up in front of Tiffana.

'Then we will now proceed to ---- the capture of Sir Corzino.

「「「「!!!!」」」」

 The knights are surprised at Tijuana's insistence on capturing the senior nobleman, the Marquis of Corzino.

''What are you surprised about? The mastermind behind the attack this time is Corzino. Then let's go!''


 Shortly before the declaration.
 Cain had intended to accompany them, but Tifana stopped him.

''This is the work of the Order. It would be reassuring to have Cain there, but that would make the Knights of the Order useless. Cain will ask His Majesty to explain this to you.''
...... Yeah, okay. Take care.
---- Yeah.

 Tifana hugged Cain once and then led the Kingsguard group to Corzino's mansion, while Cain, after seeing off the Kingsguard group, went to the royal castle to explain to the king and Duke Eric.


 ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇.

'Godd*mn it! How could it fail with all those people in the room!

 There was Corzino, kicking up a chair in the fancy-built office, expressing his anger.
 Beside him stood Riggan, who had rounded up Malf. He had his own handlers monitoring the movements of the royal capital, and he was the first to detect that the Knights were aiming for this mansion, and he had come to advise Corzino of his escape.

'It can't be helped, the raid was considered a failure ....... But still, why did you contact ...... so quickly at this distance ......?
It doesn't matter! First we'll take the money and hide out a bit. Then arrange to have him welcomed out of the country at once.
Yes, as you wish: ......

 When he saw that Rigan had left the office, Corzino shifted the picture frame to the side and operated the switch hidden there.
 Gogogo ...... and the bookcase began to move sideways, revealing an aisle with enough room for one person to pass through.

'I'll have to take as much as I can carry for now ......

 Corzino walks through the openings.
 Inside there is a staircase, which he slowly descends, then unlocks a tightly closed door and enters.

 There was a space of about twenty tatami mats, lined with several boxes laden with gold coins and filled with jewels and rare objects.
 It was Corzino's hidden room, and all the wealth he had been hoarding was stored here.

It's ...... to fail with that many people. We've worked our way up to this point! Because of that f*cking kid! I have a plan!

 While shouting at him, Corzino packs the box of gold coins into his magic bag.
 In the meantime, a voice comes from behind him in a room where only Corzino is supposed to know.

'You don't want to lose, do you ....... Then--''

 A voice that seemed to echo directly in his head made Corzino turn around and see that no one was there.

'Wha, who is it? I'm the only one who knows about this place. ......

"---- I can help you.

 The voice was heard by one gem whose lid was closed.

'A voice from here ......? What the hell is this box? ......

 Corzino put his hand on the lid of that voiced jewelry box and opened it vigorously.
