Tensei Saki ga Shoujo Manga no Shiro Buta Reijou datta Chapter 141

The outcome of our respective discussions:

In the castle, In order to protect Nora and Merrill, as well as Ricardo and me, we'd better stay in the castle, but at the same time, we decided to take action as soon as possible to arrest the bad noblemen.

Although I had delivered the information about some future events to them, I still couldn't predict what would happen in the coming year. Because Merrill had seen the criminals earlier than the time in the manga, then maybe everything would go into one of the various paths.

“We'll investigate this case, to the possible extent. At the same time, we'll also ask Angela to take care of Her Highness Merrill.”

“Yes, I'll strike out a countermeasure, together with His Highness Marlow. What's more, I'll send a message to Lord Willey. After all, Miss Nora is also involved in the case. She stays in the capital alone, far away from her hometown…”

The conversation, centered on Emirya and Ryuze, proceeded swiftly.

(How reliable the seniors were! I was more reassured.)

All in all, it was better to keep my memory a secret from Marlow and Angela. By the way, I'd better remind Lucas.

“Britney and Ricardo, please stay indoors during this period. I'll send some guards with you. I believe princess Merrill will be likely to do the same.”

From guardian Ryuze, I was warned to give priority to my own safety.

(It's really annoying, but there was no way out.)

No matter what it was, nothing could compare with life. Life was the most importance.

“Behave yourself and stay here. Even if you could only take action in the limited area, there are also many things you can do. Ricardo?”

“Yes, it is.”

Looking at us who had made up our mind, Ryuze nodded.

“So it is. There may be something we have to ask for your help, and at that time, we all  depend on you.”

Ricardo and I answered with confidence.

Over several months, Emirya and Ryuze had narrowed down the encirclement around the enemy.

(Although these two people didn't get along well with each other, it turned out that they were the strongest combination if they worked together…)

First, according to Merrill's testimony, they arrested those suspicious people she had seen before and then interrogated them to find the rest of the criminals.

Even though almost all relevant personnel had been arrested, there still wasn't evidence of the culprit. Merrill's guardian, Angela sometimes would complain it to me.

Except that, I almost had no contact with Angela. On the other side, Ricardo and I also took some actions in the streets. As Marlow's and Ryuze's agents, Ricardo and I helped with some of their work, even if we could only walk in the limited area in the castle.

As we hurried to take action, winter was coming.

My foot had recovered by now, but my engagement with Ricardo remained the same.

Ricardo hadn't made a great contribution yet, and in the current situation, it was hard to do anything.

(If only there was something I could help…)

Only one month to spring, I had never mentioned it before Ricardo.

In the meantime, a great event happened.

The culprit, a nobleman who governed the eastern territory of the city, was driven to a corner by the evidence we collected. Then he gave up on himself and stayed in his own territory all the time. The nobleman was deaf to all advice. It was said that he was determined to struggle to the end.

After Mirarudo's incident, a feeling of unrest in the air shrouded the whole city.

Soldiers were dispatched out from the capital. Marlow and Ryuze decided to march with the army.

As King's representative, Marlow had to handle some things and Ryuze undertook the task to assist him.

(Because he owned Lord Marlow so immense a debt when North Country broke into Earl Hakusu's territory.)

Ricardo also applied for advancing with them.

At first, they were reluctant to take him. However, as most criminals involved in the case were arrested, now it made no sense to attack Ricardo, so they promised to carry Ricardo.

Speaking of my work, I provided support for the soldiers in the castle.

This time, I stayed in the princess's office to work with Angela and Emirya.

Although there were guards around Merrill, she also traveled around the city to do something she could help.

As for Nora, now she was staying next to his fiance, Willey. I hoped they could take this opportunity to become closer.

Time passed so fast.

That day had finally arrived. As King's representative, Marlow left for the eastern territory.  

Slightly thinner, I quietly watched off them. They were going to dispose of the matter about that nobleman who governed the eastern territory of this country.

“Lord Marlow, please be more cautious.  Ryuze onii-sama, don't force yourself too much. Ricardo, be careful and don't get hurt.”

Angela and Merrill also stared at their brother anxiously.

“Don't worry, leave all matters of the city to me. Good father…I will support His Majesty! Of course, I will also support brother too!”

“Well, I trust you, Angela.”

“Ok! Don't worry about Merrill!”

“Thank you, then I feel reassured. Ah, Britney.”

Suddenly mentioned, I stared at Marlow in surprise.

“When I come back, I have something important to tell Britney. For you, I really…”

“Lord Marlow?”

As you left, don't set up a dangerous flag on my head.
