Chapter 28: Return to the hotel
Kenneth stayed quietly in the hotel today, sitting on the sofa, his arms poked into his knees, his hands on the bridge of his nose, half of his face hidden under his white gloves, and his squinted eyes showed a cold light.
βlancerγ Why did you come back so late. And Solau says you have a very violent magic reaction. What are you doing? Why don't you report it to me? β
When Yagi Yukisai returned to the hotel, his first sentence was such a slashing accusation.
This point cannot be justified by any means.
As a servant of others, I have done so many things casually, and it is indeed my own problem not to notify others in advance.
Therefore, since you know that you are at a loss, you must not mess around.
This is also a mistake that many people are prone to make.
When the other party is very angry and accuses them of their mistakes, many people will refuse to admit their mistakes in order to get rid of their mistakes, and the result is that this attitude will further intensify the anger of the other party, and in the end the two sides will definitely fall out.
Yagi Yukisai is very smart, although he is not very good at the eight-sided exquisite way of dealing with the world, but he still knows the basic routines.
"I'm really sorry, Master, but when I was looking around, I felt the magic of Rider Iskander, so I hurried over."
"I know. I ask you, are you going to join that stupid declaration of war? β
"Of course - no!"
Yagi Yukisai lied seriously, and the awe-inspiring look on his face almost made people believe that he was really innocent.
"Oh? So where exactly are you wasting your magic? β
"Well, I think, at least some rider will respond to that stupid rider, right? So I sneaked over and tried to sneak up on one or two servants, and thanks to that stupid rider and fighting the equally stupid Saber, I had a chance to sneak up on Archer, and now Archer is out! β
This is Yukisai's tactic.
Instead of lying about your mistakes, you choose to emphasize your own merits.
There are few people in this world who can't make mistakes. It doesn't matter if the person has a mistake, the important thing is whether the person is good enough to make people ignore his merits.
As a simple example, if an employee pulls in a list of 10 million for the company, then breaking a glass is nothing.
Archer's strength is obvious to all, even if Kenneth doesn't know it, Saber, Lancer, and Archer are known as the Three Horsemen because of their excellent performance in the Holy Grail Wars. Being able to deal with one of the Three Horsemen will definitely make him happy, right?
Especially Kenneth, a master who values results.
Sure enough, after hearing Archer's exit, Kenneth snorted heavily in his nose, and the expression on his face softened, he should be happy.
After all, he also saw the scene performed by Tosaka Toshitomi at the beginning.
The golden archer is indeed a strong enemy, and it is really very difficult to release countless treasures casually. It's a real credit to be able to solve this guy in the first place.
"So, are you doing it all by yourself?"
"Ah...... In fact...... I met the master of the caster and came to an agreement with him to solve the problem of the archer. β
Yukisai Yagi's mind turned, and he wanted to talk to Fujimaru Ritsuka.
"Huh?"
Kenneth's words, which had just softened, immediately sharpened again.
"Ignoring the Master's wishes, you have made contact with other forces and concluded an agreement!"
The last half of the sentence was almost shouted, and it could be seen that Kenneth was very angry now.
I guessed that.
However, Yagi did not dare not say it.
Because...... Kenneth just said that he knew about the commotion caused by the rider. On the other hand, it is likely that he sent an envoy to observe, and if what he said did not match what he saw, then there was no doubt that he would be considered unfaithful.
That's a lot of fun.
Yagi can't afford to gamble, after all, people also have a spell in their hands......
"Yes."
After thinking for a moment, Yagi Yukisai nodded affirmatively.
Kenneth raised an eyebrow: "Don't you choose to lie?" So, I'm interested, why the hell are you ignoring me? β
"Because...... I don't think Lord Kenneth has a lot of opportunities, and there is no need to bother with such a small person's affairs. β
"Little people?"
"Yes, the Master of Caster is a layman! The caster itself is not a great servant, and I think it is most appropriate to treat them as disposable items and throw them away when they are used up. I think it's like taking an extra pair of disposable chopsticks while eating, and there's no need to pollute Kenneth's ears at all. At that time, if necessary, I will be able to destroy both of them by myself. β
Kenneth snorted and said, "Talk big." β
Yagi Yukisai looked at his face and pondered for a moment, he probably wasn't so angry.
At least the death ending is avoided.
He can see this kind of elite magician a lot, and he is the kind of person who can even abandon his own servants if necessary.
"Okay, I don't have to ask. Next time definitely don't skip me to make my own decision. I'm wondering right now...... What's going on with that little girl next to you! β
Kenneth gestured to the small woman beside Yukisai Yagi, her purple hair quietly draped over the blue cloak that Yukisai had given him.
"Yes...... Well...... Souvenirs? β
Yukisai Yagi smiled awkwardly. Kenneth was angry, he was originally an aristocratic faction of the clock tower, the type who advocated that magicians were nobles among the human race, that they should be more elegant and better than anyone else, and that they should always stand on top of people. Even he couldn't keep his composure now.
Yagi Yukisai seems to have a special talent that is difficult to control when he looks at him.
By the way, the so-called [souvenir] next to Yagi Yukisai is actually the girl who was found in the Makiri family before.
Well, although this person said that she couldn't save it, she wanted to end her life of suffering as soon as possible...... But ah, sure enough, it's still ...... Well...... Right? For the dead house, it is still too difficult to kill a sweet-looking little girl.
Obviously, he didn't hesitate at all when he killed Kirizuno before, but when the other party was a beautiful little girl, he softened, and sure enough, this world is about looking at faces.
(Well, this peculiarity will disappear completely after we fix it, so even if I leave it alone, she's bound to die.) So, I don't need to be nosy. οΌ
Thinking so, he finally put away the holy sword and didn't attack her. Instead, he took her out of the house.
She wasn't very cooperative. But with her small body, she can't resist Yagi.
βlancerβ¦β¦ I'm getting more and more aware that you don't know what ...... is."
Kenneth was about to say something to count him down, when he suddenly sensed something was wrong.
He looked up, smiled slightly, and said, "It's here." β
He felt it.
Someone, come to their own [magic workshop].
That is, someone broke into their hotel, which had turned into a place of terror that had turned into a fortress.
