"Be careful on the road." The next morning, in the bright sunshine, the crowd came out to see Heiliga off.

Of course, it wasn't a very long way to see him off—and, perhaps for pomp, or for some other reason, the servant who had sent the official invitation had even offered to send a saloon to pick him up—but the latter declined.

In order to avoid suspicion, Elphine and Elyse did not appear at the scene, and Wernas, who was busy with the management of the territory, only showed his face hastily, and the rest of the people were nothing more than Fey, Macchias and Elliot, as well as Alain and others, as well as Levi, who disguised himself as one of the members of the guard. Despite his sensitive identity, the servant was not sensitive enough to recognize the faces of Macchias and Eliot, so he was only a friend of the lord's family.

"Be careful on the road...... Alas, people who seem to have known me have not said this to me since a very early age. After the servant, who had left in the car and had told him to arrive before noon, he laughed at himself to the men beside him. Indeed, people who know his strength almost never say so, and he is not the kind of person who likes to mess around.

"If you want to hear it – be careful on the road." Fei deliberately said this in a listless tone, which made Helriga cry and laugh for a while.

"Give ......," Levi handed over a package, "you asked me to pick it up earlier." ”

"Hmm...... What's in there? Macchias asked curiously. As Levi was tidying it up, he seemed to vaguely see that it was a document bag wrapped in a huge cover, containing a dozen documents that he didn't know what was written. Of course, the invitation just now was also carefully stored on the outermost side of the backpack.

"Some...... Something that might be useful. Heliga was vague about this, although he had not hidden most of the thoughts from his companions, but he still felt that it was better not to take the initiative to say such things.

Even Levy, after knowing his intentions, once had a certain conflict with himself, and was finally made by Helliga "Anyway, they are already a heinous crime, and they can only play a greater role if they are used by me and Olibat", and "It's too cheap to kill them directly", which made Levi give up his persistence.

————————————————————————

Yes - that document was part of the file on Paradise that Helliga had taken from Guy during the Crossbell incident.

This is what was used to blackmail Speaker Harutman, so that the ruler of Crossbell was held back by Joachim for decades, and finally discredited. Neither Crossbell's political councilor nor the nobles of the empire have any resistance to such evidence - disrepute is bound to end, if used well.

At first, when Levi knew that Helliga had withheld such a batch of documents, he was actually a little surprised in his heart. However, he soon seemed to understand that this evidence should be used to eliminate these nobles - after all, Heliga is almost the kind of unconditional favor that Ling has for his sister, and these probable, potential harmers must not be let go by him.

However, when he heard about Hailiga's plan, he was still a little surprised-in his opinion, this batch of evidence should be selected at the right time, and published in a grand manner, so that these people can be difficult to distinguish, in front of everyone, and preferably able to be tried and punished by the law - he originally thought that Hailiga, who had a good relationship with Olibat in the political circles, may also be acting with such calculations.

However, Heliga had no intention of doing so—he hoped to use the evidence as a means of blackmailing them, as Joachim had done with Harutman. Of course, Heiliga didn't intend to use their protection to do anything with Crossbell, and they didn't actually have the ability to do so - what he wanted was the power behind these financial aristocrats, relying on their status and wealth, plus the aura of the members of the Baryahat aristocratic circle—both financially and personally.

"Olibat, sometimes too naïve in these things...... He always felt that every country would be as good as Liber in nature. But he and I actually understand that sometimes it is impossible to do all this cleanly in the struggle for your share of power. So, let's start now—when the aristocratic faction is in a good situation and they are at their most proud. ”

"You ......," Levi steadied, "are you going to blackmail these nobles one by one in private?" ”

"yes. Rest assured, they would not dare to communicate openly with each other about this matter, nor would they dare to seek the support of the Duke of Elbariana - this kind of scandal would surely be avoided by any normal nobleman who heard about it. Heiliga smiled, "Of course, because at present, the aristocratic faction still has the advantage, and the so-called "hole cards" that I prepared for myself and made them believe in it are actually a little insufficient, so it is not easy to become fat in one bite." My current plan is to use this evidence to blackmail them into providing them with the convenience I can, and then find a way to settle accounts with them afterwards. Rest assured, they're all going to pay for it in the end - there's no way I'm going to let them go. ”

Levy, who wanted to say something, finally shut up when he heard the last assurance from Helriga Iron Teeth.

His hometown was destroyed by a political conspiracy – that's true. But he can't ask all his companions to always be a white lotus flower that comes out of the mud and is not stained because of this. Some things are unavoidable, and as he says, it's the perfect opportunity.

What's more, nothing will change in terms of results - when Helliga gives himself assurances with that attitude, Lévy knows that he has been convinced.

Ling her...... I don't know about it. Your plans, and these plans now. Finally, Levy's voice was almost so small that he couldn't hear it clearly.

"Hmm...... Even I know how ...... such a thing is," Helriga sighed and smiled wryly, "After this incident, I may not have the face to see her again." ”

"No—you have to see her. If she notices it, you must not hide it. Hyliga's attitude softened, but Levi had changed to his previous grim appearance.

"I know...... Whether it's her, or Estelle and Joshua, or my companions now. Heliga nodded firmly and slowly, "I—I'm not going to run away from that." ”

"No...... You don't know anything at all, Rei...... She ...... to you," Levi couldn't say after all.
