Chapter 221 Strongest Sage, Blasts Away
『Alright, I'm done . 』
『How was the dollmaster?』
『The demons had put him under a spell, he died as soon as I bound him . . . Managed to get the info I wanted though . 』
『Info you wanted?』
『The mastermind's location . . . Let's get away from this warehouse first . 』
I urge the girls to get away .
There's something I've gotta do here .
『Is there any problem with the warehouse?』
『Don't tell me, it's going to explode?』
The girls had evacuated the place while sounding puzzled .
I set up a simple magic tool on the warehouse's lock while responding to them .
『It won't explode even if we get away from it, but I'm going to ignite it now . 』
『Ignite!?』
『We're gonna really stand out if we do that . . . 』
『No, it's the opposite . Our enemy would find it suspicious if this warehouse didn't blow up . . . There's a timer on the explosive device anyway, we'd better off blowing it up now when no civilians are around . 』
From the very start, the enemy has always planned to blow up this warehouse if it's been found out .
Evident by the same type of bomb locks put on all entrances to this warehouse . . .
There's even a magic tool that will automatically make the warehouse explode if it doesn't detect the dollmaster's mana in three days .
With these many traps, defeating the dollmaster inside while stopping the timer bomb is the same as telling the enemy that there's someone knowledgeable about magic tools amongst us .
That's only going to make them needlessly more cautious of us .
It's a better idea to follow along (?) and let the warehouse go up in an explosion .
『Even time bomb . . . Won't their own countrymen get caught up in the explosion that can blow away an entire warehouse?』
『Of course they would . Well, the guys who attacked Eis Kingdom don't seem to care even if this whole town is slaughtered, so they probably think nothing of some fatalities . 』
『Uwaah . . . Then it's better to let this explode when there's no one around . . . 』
I check the inside of the warehouse once again .
Yup . Can't find any good materials .
『Alright, I'm blasting it off!』
Afterward, I got away from the warehouse and pour mana into the magic tool I set up .
. . . Soon after, the warehouse's door got blown away and the warehouse went up in a blaze with sounds of explosion .
Looks like the explosive devices set there were focused into burning down the inside .
Still, anyone within 10 meter radius of the warehouse would have died instantly by the explosion .
At this rate, everything inside the warehouse would have been burned down to ashes and be unrecognizable by the time anyone could get near it .
Just convenient for destroying evidence .
『Good, let's take advantage of this confusion and move out . 』
『Where are we going?』
『For now, to the guild . There's something I'd like to check . 』
I ran to the guild .
There were some people who were running away from the explosion so slipping in among them was a simple matter .
『Guild? Are we going to take a quest?』
『Nah, I just want to look at the guild's water . 』
We're not going to take a quest .
Heck, we're not even going to enter the building .
My goal is the guild's water facility .
Adventurer Guilds are usually joined to a drawing water facility .
From rehydration to maintaining weapons, such a place is very relevant to adventurers after all .
From rehydration to maintaining weapons, such a place is very relevant to adventurers after all .
In Eis Kingdom, the drawing water facilities are usually situated next to the guild buildings .
We never used one since we could just use water magic ourselves though .
『Guild's water . . . ? Since Saihill Empire has waterworks system, I don't think we'll find a well there like at Eis Kingdom . . . 』
『Aah, I've heard about that!』
『I mean that's in the lesson at Second Academy . . . That water is our objective . 』
I arrived at the guild while talking .
Just as Ruli mentioned, the guild's drawing water was from a water service instead of a well .
I was highly suspicious about the water service from the start, but since it was located inside a building, I had it postponed .
The stealth magic we used earlier isn't well suited for sneaking in places like the guild .
In a town as small as this, the guild staff probably remember those who come by building .
However, in a state of panic after a huge explosion such as this time, us going in and draw the water won't draw attention .
We'd probably look like people who're getting water to fight fire .
I draw about 1 liter water and put it into Storage magic .
『Alright, let's get out of here!』
『Are you done with the guild?』
『Yea . We've no business here now with this water . 』
As we were about to leave the guild . . . My eyes caught a paper posted next to the exit .
『Yea . We've no business here now with this water . 』
As we were about to leave the guild . . . My eyes caught a paper posted next to the exit .
. . . It's a paper with a wanted list of criminals .
Of course, it's not unusual for there to be a wanted list . Like bandit wanted list and such, every guild has these .
The reason I stopped was because one of the portraits posted there looked similar to the dollmaster I defeated earlier .
No, it's not just similar anymore .
Even the moles and scars matched perfectly . It's practically the same person .
Here's the content of the wanted poster .
――――――――――Wanted――――――――――
Wanted: Garijig Slauther
Crimes: 38 Murders, 17 Robberies, and participant in 187 miscellaneous crimes .
Reward: 15 Million Sahia
Note: Broke out of jail in the imperial capital three days before his execution . As he was not in a situation where he could have escaped alone, there is a possibility of collaborators .
―――――――――――――――――――――――――
. . . Looks like that dollmaster was a wanted person scheduled for execution .
The demons most likely demanded for his obedience in exchange of freedom .
He ended up like that as a result though .
But the fact that this wanted list exists means that the whole country is unlikely to be controlled by the demons aka the worst case scenario .
I would find out where they intervene with the country if I analyze the water I just drew .
If the water has been tampered with, the empire's waterworks service is definitely an enemy .
I rushed out of the guild toward a forest while thinking that .
