I Am No King's
Chapter 160 – Sudden Attack
~Lugalgin's POV~
I went to the kitchen and checked the dinner preparations. When I came into the kitchen, Inanna whispered to me.
"Just know what theory? You're training Shinar's control as well as Agade's members, right?"
I smiled when I heard Inanna whisper.
"Well, I don't want to focus too much on Suen. On the other hand, I also can't leave Suen and serve Ninlil just like that, right?"
I whispered back, answering Inanna.
Honestly, for me, the moment Ninlil played with Nanna and Suen like this was rare. Moments like this remind me that my life does not revolve around intelligence, black markets, and the inheritance of the throne. I was again reminded that I too have a life as a normal commoner.
On the other hand, I no longer have to worry about the assessment of the mother to the Emir who just counted the months. At present, Emir can cook and do homework well, just like Inanna.
Eh? My level? Huh, don't joke. Although Mariander's military forced Inanna to become independent, she had only been in for a few years, let alone the Emir who was just starting out. I've been doing homework since Ninlil was born, 14 years old. My skills in homework are impossible to match with these two former princesses.
I remember High School when Illuvia and Maila protested because my cooking tasted better than theirs. Not only that, I cleaned up the executive board room making them go up. They say, if the school knows I'm more skilled than they are at homework, then their image as a core caretaker will be tarnished.
At such a time, Arde would defend me by stating that it was normal for me to have that ability because I was a commoner. However, he failed to convince the two of them because he himself was able to produce a cuisine that was better than mine. In conclusion, the guy at the core of our High School executive board is more skilled at homework than the girl.
By the way, I haven't contacted Arde and Maila in months. I sent a message a few times, but they only replied to him a few days later. They seem to be really busy. Well, how else. We are no longer a school. Our agenda is also different. Maybe, after this, our friendship will be more tenuous.
"Nanna, thank you for being friends with Ninlil."
"Ah, it's okay, Brother Lugalgin. Instead we're glad Ninlil wants to be friends with us."
Maybe the others didn't notice it, but Nanna's tone was slower and softer when talking to me. In the past, when I was still living in one house with my father and mother, he often came by using the excuse of playing to Ninlil's house. If I was at home, he would have been looking for an opportunity to chat with me alone.
However, now, I hear he doesn't come as often as he used to. Ninlil said Nanna is now busier with studying because the exam is imminent. However, the real reason was that Nanna did not have a strong reason to come because I was no longer home. He also couldn't have suddenly come to my house.
Until now, I had no idea what made women fall for me. And I don't want to find out. However, at least, I am still sensitive, unlike someone.
Suen seemed to still have feelings for Ninlil. Although he said he wanted to ask me about control, he repeatedly stole a glance towards Ninlil. Therefore, I tried to bring the two of them closer together.
Unlike me who always pay attention to the surrounding conditions, Innate Lacuna training results, Ninlil is completely insensitive. In fact, I would bet, he was currently unaware that I was bringing him closer to Suen. Hah, I'm so worried. The chances of my sister getting a partner is very small.
Finally, dinner was ready on the table. I sat between the Emir and Inanna while Ninlil sat between Suen and Nanna. We also took it in leisurely. At least, that's the plan.
"E–"
"Yes!"
I haven't had time to call Emir, or Inanna, they've both moved quickly.
No no no no no
A dull voice was heard many times. In the window, there were several white circles, attempted bullets that failed to enter the house.
Before the bullet hit the window, we were all on the move. The Emir and Inanna pass beside the table and pull Nanna and Suen. I jump on the table and pull Ninlil. Right now, we're all taking cover behind a wall, at the end of the room.
I installed this house with bulletproof glass. Even a Lupus-type sniper rifle belonging to Lacuna would not be able to pierce through it. Only an anti-material rifle could penetrate it. However, even so, I still have to be on guard.
"Gin, man,"
I looked at the Emir. In the Emir's arms, Nanna was trembling. His hand clasped the Emir's clothes so firmly. So too with Suen. He did the same thing to Inanna.
On the other hand, Ninlil did not tremble at all. He put his body on me, but I felt no vibration at all. He seems pretty calm.
We did nothing, just waited. Not long after, the gunfire stopped.
Nanna was hysterical when she heard my smartphone ring. The Emir stroked and stroked Nanna's hair gently, trying to calm her down.
I let go of Ninlil and picked up the phone. While picking up the phone from Mari, I walked to the window, looking at the marks of the shots.
"How's it?"
[Three people from the Alhold family. They're already dead.]
I heard Mari's distinctive tones. I can imagine him talking with his half-open, dim-looking eyes, on the other end of the phone.
When I saw the marks of the shot, what surprised me was that the bullet that was fired did not seem to be targeting me, but was targeting Ninlil and his two friends. Do they want to kill Ninlil? No. gabe. Not likely. Ninlil was the future leader of the Alhold family. There's no way they killed him.
Or another possibility is, the Alhold family tried to kill Nanna and Suen, then threatened Ninlil. Perhaps, they wanted to show that I could not protect Ninlil's friends, force him to return home and obey orders if I did not want them to be threatened.
Yes, this scenario is the most likely.
"The Alhold family yes."
[Yes, the Alhold family. Sorry Ka–Lugalgin. At first, I wanted to interrogate them. Unfortunately, they were suddenly killed when I arrived.]
Suddenly dead? Perhaps, there was someone else watching them from a distance. When the other party approached, the person would press a button, spreading poison in the body of the attacker.
"Search people with strange gurgles within a radius of a few kilometers. You can deploy Agade employees who are free. Then, you call someone from the base and perform an autopsy on their body. I want to know the poison or whatever caused them to die."
[Good Ka–Lugalgin.]
I told you, Mari, if you want to call me by calling Kak, I don't forbid.
Let's hang up.
I sent a message to Shu En, asking that an agent come to Nanna and Suen's house and give their families protection.
"Nanna, Suen, I want to talk to you about something important."
