Marquis' Express Butler

I didn't feel good for some reason.

How long has it been since I left Cornell's house? As the flames rose, the house began to burn vigorously. When you see a fire like that, it's never spontaneous ignition.

If it's a spontaneous ignition, it'll be like that by the time I leave this place completely.

I think we need to take a look.

Once I have deep pressed into the hood, I move toward you. The crowd is gathering and shouting loudly.

“Water! Bring water! There are people inside! ”

“It's too late! Even if we bring water, there's no way to turn it off! ”

Of course. The whole house is already lit up and there can't be a fire extinguisher here.

And Cornell inside would have already lost his life. Or escaped.

Now that I know the important secret, I will send an assassin from the Merchant Guild, and he will be killed without fail. Maybe he ran away because he was scared.

But is it true?

I've worked with Instructor Cornell for a while, though. When you postpone his personality, you don't have to be so bold.

He would have left quietly, even if he did. There's no way people are going to act like this.

Then there's only one possibility left.

“Was he killed, too? ”

You rub the Mana Pistol across your waist.

My guess is the guy who set the fire killed Cornell before he set the fire. And then you poured the right amount of oil and set it on fire. That'll be quick. Cornell was interrogated by me, and his condition wasn't normal. He's not a very strong man at first.

“He's in here. ”

I lost interest in the burning house and looked at the faces of the crowd.

Most of them looked ordinary. I'm half surprised, and I'm watching the house on fire with that look. Some of them carefully approach the site and start to prevent the fire from igniting.

“What about them?”

I saw people who disturbed my eyes.

There were only two of them.

Their expressions are awkward. One with his arms crossed, one with his legs pointed and watching the fire. A little further.

“That's very suspicious. ”

When I sensed something was happening, I used Mana to raise my eyesight.

Whoo-hoo!

Their bodies expand as if they were looking right at each other. I used the falcon's eyes to find clues in their bodies.

I couldn't distinguish between clothing and clothing. This is the second time I've been out. I don't yet know the style of people in this world

“Huh? That's... ”

There was one thing I noticed.

Tattoos.

One of them wears long sleeves and doesn't look too good, the other one wears a short sleeve shirt.

I see a tail with a needle in it. Black tails.

He had a tattoo on his forearm.

Above it is covered. I couldn't fully see it to cover my clothes, but I imagined the rest because I was familiar with the tattoo on my black tail.

It was the Black Scorpion.

“Scorpion wave?”

That tattoo will never be forgotten. He almost died. Their tattoos are the same as the one on Calmond's arm.

Exactly what I expected. The real culprit behind this case is not the Alcaine Merchant Guild. Those scorpions right behind you.

Qarrr!

At that time, the house collapsed with a loud noise next to it. I heard screams, many were surprised, but the scorpions smiled.

This is clear. All of Cornell's trainers have been noble guests in their hands.

“I was going to take my hand off someday, should I take it off? ”

I picked up a stone on the floor. And I threw it at them. You fall on the shoulder of the big guy on the left.

“What?”

A stoned man looks around and looks at you. I laughed without missing the gap. Make sure the tail of your mouth is visible to them.

“Is that you? Son of a bitch! Why are you throwing rocks and shit? You want to die?"

This place is crowded. I use my chin to point to the side alley. Those who snorted began to follow me.

It was a dead end.

“Hahaha! You picked a good spot. Why are you picking on me? Huh?”

I didn't take off the hood. I asked in that state.

“You're the scorpions, right? ”

“ ……. ”

Their faces turn suspiciously. I seem to have noticed that I'm not a normal person. Hey, guys. Looks like you didn't take your time.

“Are you mute? Are you a scorpion? ”

“Shit. You threw a stone on purpose. Who sent you? ”

“On your own what? ”

Grrr!

They draw their swords from their waist. It was thick and crude, like a hideous sword that could be used at a pulp point.

But I wasn't scared.

I was confident I could take them down before they ran into me. I put my hand on the right waist dance. At that moment, they asked me a question.

“Is that Cornell's paw? ”

“Once upon a time. ”

“Then you must die, too. New and exciting to see you in the afterlife! ”

Heave-ho!

They flinch when I pull out the Mana pistol and point it at you. It was the first thing I'd seen. But perhaps not sharp enough, they rush back with their weapons.

Click.

The Mana adjustment switch is set to 'Medium’. And aim for the one on the left.

Thung! Thung!

“Kuaak!”

One in the chest and one in the face drop their swords and roll the floor. The running man stands still and looks down at his companion and steps back.

“Crossbows? What, what? What are you, a wizard? ”

“Th! Wizards are so common? No common sense.”

I asked Stuart the other day. What kind of people are wizards?

His answer was: It's not the wonderful things that come out of fiction, it's the wise people who study the laws of the world and the flow of energy.

And the number was very small, and the number of wizards had been decreasing ever since the sunset of Mana.

Well, that's not the point now.

“Guess what this time? Is there any hope? ”

“Hiic!”

I was aiming for the most painful place I could find. And I pulled the trigger without mercy.

Thung!

I only fired one shot, but the bullet hit where I wanted it to. To a bad place.

“Shhhhh!”

The man hit by a bullet in the cyst collapses instantly, foaming at the top of his chest. Rather, it looks more urgent than the one who was shot in the chest and face. Poor thing's gonna die like that.

My bullets are special. Surrounded by Mana, it does not penetrate the moment it is hit, but causes shock. So it works like a hammer.

The guy next to me reflects on his fallen comrade, foaming at him.

Cough.

I stepped on his chest.

“Answer the question correctly from now on. Or I'll do the same for your friend. ”

The man trembles, nodding softly. I asked him, aiming at his cyst, not his face.

“You guys killed Cornell, right? Why did you kill him?”

“I, I just did as I was told! ”

“Fuck you.”

“Ugh…. ”

I gave more strength to the foot that stepped on my chest. He gasps and breathes. Don't worry. I'm not gonna kill you.

“Tell me the truth, because I can't tell. If you don't, you'll never hug a woman again. This weapon, it hurts. Wouldn't you rather be dead? ”

“Huff!"

“Oh my god. I don't understand you. Then there's nothing we can do. Farewell."

I turned my eyes away from him and aimed at the gun. And the moment I was about to fire.

“Wait! Wait a minute! ”

I drew my gun with a smile.

“Have you thought about telling me now? ”

“I really don't know! I don't know! But I've heard one thing! He knows too many secrets about our organization... I'm sure he does! So kill him!”

It seems to be true because he is desperately defending himself while drooling.

“You know Roy, right? He works for the Alcaine Merchants Guild. ”

“Well, that's... ”

“You know, don't you? ”

“I know!”

Knng!

I gave my foot strength again.

“This guy's got a short mouth. You don't want to do it right? ”

“I'm sorry! ”

“What's your relationship with this Roy guy? ”

“Go, same family! ”

That's right. I can see the blurry areas now.

The situation is not bad. Rather, it's good.

The Alcaine Merchant Guild will shut down once this operation is underway. I'll get in your way. Then the scorpion behind it will be irreversibly hit.

So putting a scorpion wave in my hands is a lot easier.

“Thank you for the good information. Well, get some rest. ”

“Yes……? ”

Thung, thung, thung!

My gun is merciless.

* * *

The sun started to tilt one day, and the festival atmosphere was increasing. It seems like there are more and more people waiting for a great festival at night.

I didn't take my eyes off the center stage.

Mu-hee and the bastards are up and playing with excitement. But I don't watch their performances, I look around terribly.

“You said there was an ambush inside the building, right? ”

It was really unexpected information. Without Cornell's intel, they'd be one step ahead.

Anyway, now is a good chance to distinguish the pia.

Those who come to enjoy the festival will not take their eyes off the stage, but if anyone cares about anything other than the stage, they are suspicious. Just like me.

“Hahaha! Did everyone have fun? Stay tuned for our next harvest show! Thank you all!”

The bearded concert director greeted him on behalf.

It was full of applause and cheer. Looks like the show's over. The concert director and members greeted in line and went downstairs.

Let's move on to the Gaga Building.

The soldiers holding spears guard the building as they look towards you. Sapiella's gate is securely closed to make sure it's not time to leave yet.

Then the door opens, knights and soldiers come out.

“What?”

Seeing only the knights come out, except for the maids, they must be changing clothes. Or something they're not supposed to see. And then one possibility of passing through the brain.

“Then there won't be anyone inside to protect it. ”

Instinctively I realized it was the beginning of the plan. Quickly, he turned the building around and moved to the back of the rare crowd.

“Huh?"

Something's not right.

The soldier who was guarding the back of the building, the wall with the secret door, suddenly bowed down. Eventually, he collapses unconscious. The soldier next to you also loses his weapon and collapses.

At that moment, a suspicious wagon approaches quietly.

I was resilient.

“That's a perfect plan. They're scarier than I thought. ”

The man in the carriage seat was covering his mouth with a mask. It looks like a single pill has been sprayed. Watching the soldiers fall one by one.

In the end, all the guards in the rear fall. Maybe there was a commotion inside the building.

Glug!

At that time, the back door spins once, and the fierce man excels in it. Surround Sapiella's infancy.

The infant was resisting if she hadn't completely fallen asleep. But I couldn't scream because my mouth was blocked.

All of this was going on without a hitch.

Unfortunately, someone knows the plan. I pulled the trigger toward the wagon just before he got on the wagon with the baby.

Tung Tung!

“Hee-hee-hee!”

I deliberately aimed for a horse.

The words from the bullets fall. Thanks to you, the wagon breaks down and you lie on one side. The already riders are trapped in the wagon.

At that moment, I met the gaze of spiritual love. Young-ae's eyes were cold as if she was suppressing her anger.

I'm not the enemy.

I took off the hood as proof. When my identity was revealed, my spiritual eyes slightly trembled.

What are you so surprised about?

I told you, whatever happens, I will save you.
