I Am No King's

Chapter 85 – Little Leak

"Sorry, Lugalgin, can we ask for your time?"

　

"I don't mind, just go in."

　

Shinar and Ufia entered before closing the door.

　

I keep opening up document after document. Shinar and Ufia had been in for a long time, but they still had not said anything. In fact, the two of them were still standing in front of the table.

　

"Why are you still standing? Please sit down."

　

"Thank you."

　

The first Ufia responds and sits down. Shinar just followed.

　

"I'm sorry, I'm reading."

　

Ufia responded, "it's okay. We're the ones who bother."

　

"So, what's up?"

　

I didn't hear a quick response. I occasionally glanced, looking at those who were throwing glances at each other. Perhaps, they were waiting for the other party to start first.

　

I'm back to these documents.

　

Finally, after a while, a voice sounded.

　

"Let me first. Gin," Ufia started the conversation. "Is it true that if there is an agent who has signed a betrayal, you do not hesitate to clean up the entire family of the agent and also the entire family of agents who from the beginning did not submit to you?"

　

"Did you hear it from Jeanne?"

　

"I, yes..."

　

When I saw Ufia like this, I remembered Ufia who was still stiff. If it was the old Ufia, she would have reprimanded me for calling Jeanne without the title of princess.

　

"I'm not completely evasive, but neither am I fully justified. Think of it depending on the situation, situation and condition, when it happens. But, still, it's better that there's no traitor because we don't know anything about the future, right?"

　

"Situation and condition?"

　

Ufia was not fully able to digest my words, nor was I intent on explaining. On the other hand, I gave a warning.

　

"On the signature list, there were four people from the Alhold family who also signed. And, do you think, are they really going to give their loyalty to me?"

　

"That's impossible."

　

"Can?" I agree with Ufia. "In other words, there is a possibility that they signed it with the aim of letting me off guard, then attacked. If successful, in addition to obtaining a position in the royal intelligence, they would also get a name in the Alhold family."

　

Ufia did not refute my words at all. He himself agrees with my words.

　

"So, Ufia, besides being a schneider agent, you're also in charge of keeping them from betraying me. If that happens, I will gladly clean up the Alhold family, including you and your family. Except my family, of course. Hehe."

　

I laughed a little when I imagined the moment of Alhold's great family massacre coming. Yes, the possibility of that moment coming is quite small in my opinion. Wh why? Because there is still a father. I have some assumptions about my father. However, since he has been very kind to me, I tried to put that guess aside.

　

"Yes, I understand."

　

Ufia replied firmly, without any doubt at all.

　

I saw he was ready for the task he had to carry.

　

"Then, Shinar, what do you want?"

　

"Ah, that, anu,"

　

"I'm even surprised you're still going to see me without your two brothers. Aren't you afraid I'd kill you?"

　

Shinar was silent for a moment. Right now, the only sound I heard was the sound of paper being flipped back and forth by me.

　

"If you were going to kill me, you would have done it that night, right?"

　

"Not wrong." I reject Shinar's statement. "I didn't kill you because you were too young. If you're over 16 by then, I can make sure you're dead."

　

"I, that....."

　

Shinar was unable to continue his statement. He just looked down.

　

"So, again I ask, what do you want?"

　

"I haven't changed my mind. I want to know why it's against my family, against the Cleinhad family."

　

Heeh, this woman is really something. My mind hasn't changed about it. If this was a comic, he would have been the main character. When else can you meet a person who can quell his grudges and even look for explanations.

　

　

"Eh?"

　

"Ufia, that,"

　

"Yes?"

　

"What do you know about the Cleinhad family?"

　

"Ung, they are the front line of defense of this kingdom facing the black market....?"

　

I paused for a moment and looked towards Ufia. Even my hands stopped moving.

　

"Why do you seem to doubt your own answer?"

　

"Yes, Gin. I mean, there hasn't been a year since I became a schneider agent. And before that, I spent time in knight school, not on the black market. What do you expect?"

　

Yes too. But, is it okay for agents not to know basic info like this?

　

After that, I began to tell what the Cleinhad family had done for generations, about human buying and selling practices, human trafficking, and the black market system they implemented, including the effects that occurred. After I said it all, these two women just fell silent with wide eyes.

　

"So, any questions?"

　

"Did that really happen, Gin?" Ufia asked.

　

"Yes, it's really happening."

　

"So, Lugalgin," Shinar added. "Is it because someone wants to demand justice? Is that really so?"

　

From the beginning, he kept trying not to mention that I was the one who massacred his family. Apparently, he did not want Ufia to know of his personal problems.

　

But this woman is quite clumsy.

　

"That's not justice. I'm sure the incident happened just because someone was hurt and wanted revenge. If it had not happened to that party, perhaps the Cleinhad family would still be alive today. Yeah, I can say they're dealing with the wrong guy. Although it was not then, sooner or later, the Cleinhad family would make trouble with the wrong party. That's inevitable."

　

"Rudence..yes."

　

When I saw the reaction of these two women, I could see the doubt in them. Their eyes still looked without direction. They even looked disorganized with their mouths half open.

　

On the other hand, I told it all as if I was talking about my lunch menu, nothing special.

　

Their reaction is normal. I mean, there's no way a massive massacre against one of the strongest noble families in this country is normal. Moreover, supposedly, people would think what I did was too far away.

　

But I don't care about all that. I just do what I want, nothing more and nothing less.

　

"Then, do you think, why was I left alive in that moment?" Shinar continued to pursue explanations.

　

I sighed, "in my opinion, because you guys are young. I heard, in the Cleinhad family, there is a rule that states every family member who reaches the age of 16 years will be told this fact, he said, in the hope that they do not do stupid things outside the family and can continue the devotion of family and–"

　

"No!" Shinar. "I can't believe it. I can't believe I'm just left alive because I haven't reached 16. There's gotta be another reason, right?"

　

This woman does not want to take my explanation for granted, unlike Ufia. Yes, since this concerned his own family, it was no wonder that he insisted.

　

"alright. I'll answer it. Another possible reason is–"

　

Seriate
