"Let's answer my first question first. ”

In short, under Ma Meng's coercion and temptation, the attitude of this captive, who was reluctant to speak no matter what, has loosened a lot.

"Where's your name?"

“...... Lim. ”

"Ah, Lim. As for the race, I think it's a hybrid of a wolf and a fox. Mammon returned to Lilith's side, "I'm right. ”

"......" Lim didn't answer, just nodded silently.

Obviously has a big tail like a fox, but it moves very quickly, which also meets the conditions of mixed blood.

"So, one last question. "What is the name of the man who shot at the top of the tower last night, and where is he now?"

"Demon, that's all you ask?" Ivan was visibly surprised, "is there anything more important than that......"

"No, the most important thing for me right now is to grab that man, cut off his limbs, and give them to Lilith. ”

......

I have good intentions, but this is really disgusting.

“......”

"Don't you want to say that, little one?" asked Mammon again, "do you think you'd rather be stripped naked and thrown into the tramp's den than tied up and put in this man's bed?"

"Wow!"

Lim's body trembled again, and then she stared at Mamon tremblingly as if she were looking at a demon king.

"Mammon...... It's going too far. Lilith tugged at Ramamon's sleeve, "I don't really care about that guy either......"

"But I care. Okay, Lim, I'll give you three seconds to think about it, three ......."

"Sisley! Her name is Sisley...... Woo, I don't know where it is now...... I really don't know. ”

Sisley...... Well, I see. Mamun nodded, "Ivan, my reward is one more plus one, help me find out the whereabouts of this person, and finally hand it over to me to deal with personally." ”

"The paladins have already searched the shadows of the city, so there is no need to say more. ”

"Well, that's all I have to ask. Finally, Miss Lim, are you going to draw that woman?" said Mammon, tugging at Lim's furry ears, "I might let you go when I'm done?"

"Maybe...... You lied to me!"

"That's right, I lied to you. Before Lim could get angry, Mamon, who grabbed Lim's neck again, made Lim tremble again, "You won't tell me all at all, you know, why should I let you go......? Please, look at my mood. ”

"Woo......"

I always feel that now Ma Meng is like a bully who has captured the women of a good family.

But when she thought that Marmon had a completely different attitude towards her than others, Lilith felt very happy.

"Sister Luxi, your position is in jeopardy. ”

"I want you to take care of it. Lucifer, who had an unkind face, shook off Asmon's hand and walked out quickly.

After that, she was probably stimulated by Mammon, and she didn't want to say anything about the orcs and the Blue Rose, except that she promised to describe the appearance of the assassin named "Sisley". As for the kind of ...... Mammon is talking about. Criminal law. Ivan certainly won't need it.

After all, it was just too inhumane.

Eventually, the initial intention was to ask Lim to say something, but that was the end of it.

On the outskirts of Imperial City.

Although it wasn't very lively before, the atmosphere in the manor was even more dreary these days. The beast-eared girls with fluffy ears and big tails are also pulling their tails like eggplants.

For what reason, everyone knows each other, but even if they do, they can't say it casually.

Otherwise, no one knows what it would be like for Lord Arya, who has always been gentle with them, to start a fire.

“...... Sisley, is your arm moving?"

Noticing footsteps behind her, Arya asked, "It's okay to rest for a while." ”

"Your Highness...... I'm fine. ”

Sisley, with a bandage around her left shoulder, kept her head down, even though she knew that the person she wanted to apologize for didn't even look at her.

"The vultures came just in time, I was just hit in the shoulder by a sharp rock. I'm sorry...... Your Highness. I...... Failed. ”

That's right, there is only one reason why the atmosphere in the manor is so dreary now, and it even makes people feel that it is difficult to breathe, and that is that Arya is not in a good mood right now.

The assassination attempt failed, Lim was captured, and some paladins disguised as ordinary people searched the city. The price to pay for the results of this well-prepared operation is simply too great.

"You still need to rest, no need to apologize now. ”

“...... Sorry ......"

In Sisley's opinion, Arya must be angry now, although this assassination was a failure caused by someone standing in front of the princess of the empire. But failure is failure, and the most important thing in such action is the result. So, the biggest responsibility is on oneself.

"The target of the search these days will definitely be you, so try not to go out during this time. ”

Arya turned around from the portrait, and Sisley, who had been forgiven, finally breathed a sigh of relief, "The reason for this failure is that I thought too shallowly, and I didn't expect that there would still be a demon from the demon world among those people, and you failed to make up for it for the second time." ”

"I'm sorry Your Highness, at that time...... The power of the demon's bow was so great that I didn't have time to shoot a third time. ”

"I care more about other things than demons. I didn't expect that right next to me, there are so many characters with hidden strength, and Sisley, the girl you killed by mistake is actually still fine and has not been harmed. ”

“......”

"Luckily, I have some kind of intersection with her, and she doesn't seem to be from the royal family. Arya pondered for a moment, "If you're an enemy, it's really hard to deal with. Her contact with the princess is very rare, so we try to avoid it. You can't be an ally, or at least not an enemy. ”

“......”

Even though he didn't know what Arya was talking about, Sisley listened intently. Because compared to having Arya stuff everything in her stomach, even if it's just to someone who doesn't understand, it can relieve her pressure a little.

"Also, I'm going to go to the capital once in a few days, and I try not to show up during those few days. ”

"Yes. ”

"By the way, what's the situation on the other side, and has 'that young lady' said anything?"

"The Orcs are almost ready to attack the Steel Fortress at any time. However, the recent activities of a small number of pro-peace and independence elements have also become rampant. But rest assured, Your Highness, that 'that young lady' has promised to help your Highness solve these troubles. "This kind of trivial thing should be regarded as a greeting gift." These are her exact words. ”

"That's good, it doesn't seem like there's any need to worry about it anymore. ”

"With all due respect, Your Highness, is that kind of woman who looks suspicious really credible?"

Although he didn't want to go against Arya's intentions, Sisley, who couldn't help it, still said it.

A few days ago, a woman wearing a mask found Arya, and without even revealing her name, she directly told her true identity and what they were going to do at that time. For the sake of safety, Sisley naturally couldn't let her leave with a swagger like this, but the orcs and magic teams of the entire manor couldn't stop her for dozens of seconds.

With a flick of her fingers, the creatures she summoned quickly leveled all the orcs, and, if it weren't for the mercy of her subordinates, she might not even be able to save her own life now.

Under the gap in absolute strength, even Alia, who was unwilling to join forces with a person whose identity was not even clear, had to agree to this strange woman's request. It's just that this woman didn't make any more excessive requests, but she never appeared again after asking for the contact method.

"Now I can only be regarded as the one who is being used. Arya sighed, "I have nothing else to do, and I don't want to trust this person and use her power until I have to." In a few days, the academy will call on all the academies to go to the steel fortress in the north, this news was sent before the action, but after that kind of thing happened in the imperial capital, it has not been canceled, what is the dean of this academy thinking?"

"Maybe it's a trap, Your Highness. ”

For a long time, Arya bowed her head and remained silent, and Sisley, who had not received the order, could not leave, so she stood behind Arya.

Finally, Arya sighed and turned to look at Sisley, "Sisley, if I used the lives of these men in exchange for the success of the operation, would you blame me?"

"It's our pleasure. Sisley replied very strictly, without an extra expression, "This is also our wish, and the last mission of our magic team is to comply with the princess's request." ”

“...... I'm sorry. Then, from the day I set out to go to the Northern Steel Fortress, until the day I return, Sisley, you lead all the members of the magic team and start looking for opportunities in the empire to assassinate a nobleman related to the royal family. I don't care about success or not, the most important thing is to ensure that my identity is not revealed, and to let the news of 'assassins operating in the imperial capital' spread all over the streets. ”

"Second, the time of all the members of the magic team is arranged in order, giving outsiders the illusion that there is actually only one assassin, and at the same time, let all the magic cylinders used by all the team members be replaced with short cylinders. On the side of the Steel Fortress, I'll find a way to create some disturbance and keep you here longer. Go ahead and order it now. ”

"Yes!"

Sisley, who noticed that Arya was clearly motivated, bowed and hurried out of the room, but she didn't notice Arya's eyes full of guilt and apology.
