I Am No King's

Chapter 39 – Quality

"Some have finally expressed their objection."

　

I stood up, looking at a writing on the wall of the living room.

　

The inside of this house is not much different from my house. Dining room between the living room and kitchen, nearby there is a living room, and a room on the 2nd floor. In the living room there are two bodies, in the dining room one body, and the rest in the kitchen. There are stab wounds on each neck.

　

We did not touch the bodies, leaving them lying and strewn on the floor. The smell of rancid and fishy in the air did not bother me. I've gotten used to the sight of a half-rotten body and being eaten by maggots. Not only me, Inanna, Emir, and Mulisu did not seem bothered.

　

"How's the second floor?"

　

I asked Mulisu who had just come down from the second floor.

　

"As we suspected,” Mulisu replied. “It seems, the culprit is just focusing on asking you. Not a single valuable item disappeared. Just some food missing from the fridge."

　

Yes, as Mulisu said, the culprit only took food in the refrigerator. Not only that, it even looks like used pans and pans are used for frying. I can say the culprit is quite sick because he is still able to cook with a corpse strewn like this. Well, I’m not one to talk, though.

　

Emir and Inanna also toured the house, doing random checks.

　

Tok

　

The door was knocked, making the Emir rush towards the door.

　

"Your guys finally came. Let's go in."

　

The Emir returned with two men.

　

One was a mother, probably already three heads old. The most striking is her long blonde hair. Maybe in his body flowed the blood of the noble Mariander. Inanna also gave the same look to him, who probably thought the same as me.

　

One was a boy who was still a teenager, even younger than me. He had long hair pinched and his bangs covered his right eye. He had black hair and eyes, the hallmark of this royal noble.

　

As far as I've come across, most new schneider agents are noble, or at least equal, like the Ufias. It seemed that the Azzaha family only recruited nobles or the equivalent. On the other hand, the previous person in charge, the Cleinhad family, did not prioritize nobles.

　

"Include me, I'm Shu En. And this kid is–"

　

"My name is Adini Estoic, of the Count Estoic family."

　

This young man named Adini interrupted Shu En with a thin tone. Not very polite. With him mentioning his name and family glass, I can conclude he still carries the arrogance of nobility.

　

"Shu En, do you know of His Majesty the King's relationship with me?"

　

"Yes, I know."

　

"Then, this kid?"

　

Shu shakes.

　

Hmm, so yeah. I want to see the response.

　

"So, Shu En, what do you think of this?"

　

Shu En looked towards the wall, at the writing written in blood and filled the wall.

　

YOU ARE NO KING

　

Shu En gave the same response as us, calmed down and observed the writing carefully. On the other hand, Adini slightly opened his mouth and frowned. It seemed that he was trying to guess the intent behind the writing.

　

"Have you ever talked about it with an outsider?" Shu En asked.

　

"Of course not" I replied Shu En. "I only talked about it to Emir and Inanna. Even my family doesn't know. Even if I talk about it, only with His Majesty the King."

　

"Hmm, so yeah. Means the leak came from our side."

　

I paused for a moment, throwing a glance towards Shu En.

　

Shu En noticed my glare attached to his face. "What's wrong?"

　

　

"It's easy for you to say that the leak came from your side. Don't you have the pride of being a schneider agent and trying to point the blame at the other side? Looking for a scapegoat? I mean, your image is like that. Every time something goes wrong, you're gonna throw it on the black market."

　

Shu En sighed, “Ah, I do not deny it. Some new people do that. I also have the pride of being the schneider agent you mean, but I was also trained in the world of espionage. Although there is a possibility that personnel are double agents for the black market or other kingdoms, I also do not deny the possibility that these personnel are indeed treasonous. Well, nothing is absolute.”

　

Heh...is this the result of the upbringing of the Cleinhad family? Apparently, the Cleinhad family had a good upbringing as well huh. It's a shame they're not in this world anymore. Maybe his kids can? However, I'm not sure that his children in control of the kingdom's intelligence can give positive results, like Shu En. It could even give negative results like Adini.

　

"You, I like you. If he keeps his promise, I want you to work for me more often."

　

Shu En smiled knotingly. "You praise me too much."

　

Shu and I threw eyes at each other. Not only me, he also used the word "you", showing the trust we have given even though we have just met.

　

"What are you guys talking about? It's just a case of rebellion, right? Why bother calling us, agent schneider? The culprit only expressed his hatred towards His Majesty King Fahren. This kind of thing is enough for the police to handle it."

　

And, one person who didn't know anything, got into the conversation. Who else if not Adini, a schneider agent who doesn't know about my relationship with Fahren? However, rather than knowing nothing, I don't think he's listening. If he was listening, he would realize we were talking about something else, not rebellion.

　

Adini pointed her index finger at my face. "Just because you're Mr. Emir's future husband doesn't mean you can call us, agent schneider, at will. We have a much more important task than dealing with a rebellion like this. Now you're just wasting our time. Understood?"

　

Behind Adini, Shu En and Emir just shook their heads while holding the temple. Somewhat far away, between the kitchen and the stairs, Mulisu held back a laugh. Next to me, Inanna left her mouth open, gaping.

　

All right, what I'm going to respond to first is... Inanna.

　

"Why? Surprised by the child's response?"

　

"Ah, gin, Sorry.” Inanna. “True this kid is agent schneider? I mean, with Bana’an's intelligence competence as low as this, if it wasn't for you, I think King Arid might have made Bana'an one of Mariander's territories."

　

"Haha"

　

Aw, so blunt. Either because Inanna was offended because this child already considered me inferior or because she did consider this child to be of no quality. I don't know.

　

On the other hand, Mulisu was unable to hold back his laughter anymore. He let his laughter appear, outraged.

　

Shu En and Emir can only cover their faces with their right hands. I can guess the embarrassment they are feeling right now.

　

Currently, there are three different reactions shown by the schneider agents who are Emir and Shu En, the gugalanna agent who is Inanna, and the black market Bana’an who is Mulisu. If there's a black market representative Mariander, complete already. Unfortunately there is no.

　

On the other hand, Adini just fell silent and looked around. From his face, I could guess he was thinking "why are these people? is there something wrong with my words?".

　

"I'm sorry Lugalgin. As you can see, this is the result of management differences."

　

"It's okay. I understand that." I responded lightly.

　

"Come, listen!"

　

Adini turned to Shu En. Despite turning his head, he seemed to be gnashing molars, trying to contain his irritation.

　

"Actually, Lugalgin had a much more important relationship with His Majesty King Fahren than his future son-in-law. I won't explain their relationship because your rank is still too low. In essence, if according to Lugalgin the schneider agent should come, then it is. Now, Lugalgin's remarks are a top priority after His Majesty the King."

　

Sorry, I consider my relationship with the Emir to be much more important than with Fahren. However, I won't discuss it now. What was more troublesome now was the selection of Shu En's words. Indeed Shu En did not tell me that I was the next king candidate, but–

　

"Are you saying that Lugalgin is more important than this royal family and royal nobility?" Adini raises the tone.

　

Yep. I have not finished my path of thought, this boy has already come to a conclusion. Real nice.

　

Shu En sighed for a moment. "Do you question His Majesty the King's orders?"

　

Adini again gritted her teeth. He realized that if he continued to protest, it was the same as questioning the orders of Fahren, King of Bana'an.

　

　

"I just want to let you know that there might be a traitor. Actually, if I wanted to, I could clean this house myself, leave nothing behind. However, since this matter is directly related to His Majesty the King, and our relationship all in the future, I think it would be wise of you to take care of all this."

　

"thank you. Your decision is right." Shu En bowed slightly. "I will try to reach His Majesty the King. I have to report this."

　

"Ah, about that," the Emir got into the conversation. "Lugalgin has given details of the incident and all his findings to father."

　

"Eh?"

　

Just then also a voice sounded from Shu En. He took the phone out of his jacket pocket and read the message. After reading, he said it briefly.

　

"While waiting for the agent who will clean up this place, His Majesty the King wants me to check this place out as well. Just in case someone gets missed by you." Shu put the phone back in. "I thought His Majesty the King was just joking when he said you had his personal number, it wasn't."

　

"No, Gin!" Emir snatching. "I told you not everyone knows your personal phone number. You're the one who takes things too lightly."

　

Okay, I admit my mistake.

　

"Here, you check the second floor and let me check the first floor." Shu En gave instructions.

　

"Huh? Why would I check the second floor? It was clear all the events on the first floor! You want to take all the achievements on your findings, huh?"

　

"Are you sure?” Shu En asked back. “Lugalgin and others have already checked. If your findings are less than theirs, what do you think will happen?"

　

Adini did not answer.

　

As Shu En said, if it turns out that Adini's findings are less than our findings, Adini's achievements will actually be smeared. It could be that he even got a penalty or dropped the ranks.

　

With heavy steps, Adini also climbed the stairs, towards the second floor.

　

Pulisu drew closer to me, he still laughed a little. He must have been thrilled to see such a low-quality royal intelligence.

　

"Write, don't laugh too much. Remember you will also be their instructor in the near future."

　

When he heard my words, Mulisu immediately removed the laughter from his face.

　

Mulisu walked over and hugged the Emir from behind.

　

"Ah, can I be an instructor for the Emir alone no? Apparently, becoming an Emir instructor would be much easier. He also needs quality. At least until the quality is the same as the gugalanna agent beside you."

　

"Eh?"

　

The Emir only gave a short response. He threw a glance at me, blinking.

　

"If you really want it, I can include the Emir under your guidance. But the boy too."

　

"Eh. don't want to. I want obedient people like Emir only. If need be, I don't want nobility under my guidance."

　

"You said Emir was a submissive? Not wrong with talking?” I refuted Mulisu. “Already. Right now, I think you will be a special instructor of an agency that has a noble background. I mean, who else could guide a noble with arrogance, like just now, other than you?"

　

"You..."

　

Mulisu pointed my index finger at me. Apparently, he did not want to be given a troublesome job. And, I don't want to either. However, I can't say that. Therefore, I have prepared another answer.

　

"If I had guided them, not a week ago, they would have fled, returned to their families."

　

"That's it," Mulisu smiled cunningly. "Let you be the antidote to nobility. Let no more nobles be agents of schneider."

　

"If that happens, the nobility can rebel. There could be a coup. When that happens, there must be a lot of black market organizations that will support the rebels, trying to get relations. Are you willing to throw away the profits you now have and start over?"

　

"Hmmm....."

　

Still from behind the Emir, Mulisu held his chin. He seemed to have just realized my words.

　

"There's nothing on the second floor. Everything happened on the first floor."

　

There had not been fifteen minutes, a voice had already appeared. Adini came down from the second floor. In fact, Shu En was still in the kitchen, yet to move to another room.

　

"Absolutely?" Mulisu asked.

　

"Absolutely."

　

"Then, what about the slightly messy girls' closet?"

　

"Huh? What does the contents of the cupboard have to do with this incident?"

　

Mulisu glanced sharply. "Are you stupid or what? Of course related. If it turns out that some clothes are missing, we can guess that the culprit is a woman the size of a girl in this house."

　

"Eh?"

　

"Then, check the woman's make up.” Mulisu. “Around the face cream cap, there are some stains that are still wet. This shows the offender cares about her appearance and happens to fit in with that make up. If from there alone, we can already find out the culprit is not an ordinary person, most likely nobility. So, we can find out which noble is using the brand's makeup."

　

Adini was unable to accept Mulisu's words anymore. He exploded, "I'm a man. What did you expect?"

　

"No men or women's business. You're intelligence, right? It's so important. Lugalgin will also check the same even if he's a man, but he's not intelligence."

　

When he heard Mulisu's words, Emir and Inanna looked at me.

　

I nodded, giving an answer to both of them.

　

"Now, go back upstairs and look for other findings. Do you want to lose face when His Majesty the King finds out you didn't get the findings while we report some findings?"

　

Adini continued to grind her teeth. However, he complied and returned to the second floor. Apparently, when Mulisu used the name Fahren, Adini, inevitably, so according to.

　

"Lugalgin, if you really want to make your friend, Mulisu, become a specialist noble instructor, I think your decision is right. He was able to suppress Adini easily without letting the child resist."

　

Shu En responded without showing his face. He spoke from the kitchen.

　

When he heard it, Mulisu looked at me and puffed his cheeks.

　

I could only smile and answer, "No, right."

　

Seriate
