Chapter 112

Aragon: “Where the heck are we going…?”



When he thought that they will go to a different room to see where the witness was, Mariel suddenly left the house and headed to the gate . Aragon had no choice but to follow her while complaining along with Earl Mathrius and the escorts from both families .

In addition, the Reifell Visounty’s servants also joined after that .

Butlers, cooks, maids, coachmen, gardeners, attendants, porters… . Every servants followed after her while hardening their expression as if they were forced to hold down their fury, but only their eyes that were glaring ominously .

 

Mariel went out of the residence gate and stopped at a few meters ahead .

Beyond that spot, lies a wall of crowds gathered from all over the town .

Aragon & Mathrius: “”……””

The Reifell Viscounty members and one girl do not seem to care even when they are currently standing in front of the crowd .

However, Aragon, Earl Mathrius, and Earl’s escorts are all having a cramp on their faces .

They do not know what is the purpose of this crowd .

 

If, by any chance, there’s a malice against the Reifell Viscounty, the crowds would make an assault as mobs .

In that case, the escorts who are only a few in person won’t be useful at all .

While thinking so, they couldn’t stop having cold sweat flowing from their back .

However, even if they are having sweat on their back, that doesn’t mean that they are also sweating on their face as well . They must never do something that will expose their flustered expression due to the fact that they are nobles who are currently in front of the commoners . Even if they are enduring this only for their own pride .

 

Aragon: “… . H-hmm, do you want to say that someone in this crowd is a witness? Or perhaps, you won’t say that they are all witnesses, right? This is just a threat from you by using a number of people, which means that there’s no evidence whatsoever in the first place and you are just trying to-……”

Mariel: “The witnesses are here . ”

 



Ignoring Aragon’s words, Mariel raised her voice and six horses were walking towards her through the wall of the crowd .

…The same six horses, who are not Ed and the others, but instead two riding horses and four carriage horses that are being kept in Reifell Viscounty . Of course, without a mask covering their faces .

The six horses were not being ridden by the coachmen and the stableman, and instead they are strolling side by side with them . And then, they stopped right in front of Mariel .

Aragon looked around searching for the ones who had gotten off from the horses, however, excluding the individuals who had brought the horses, he could not see any figures other than the crowd themselves .

Aragon: “Where’s the witness-…”

Mariel shouted and blocked Aragon’s words .

Mariel: “Who’s the one who ordered the culprits to kill my parents and brother?”

Then all the horses lifted and pointed their right forefoot,

……to Aragon .

 

Aragon & Mathrius: “”The 『Witnesses』 are HORSEEEEEEEESSS!?!””

 

The yells from Aragon and Earl Mathrius were in tune .

And then, Earl Mathrius continued his words .

Mathrius: “They are not humans, so wouldn’t it be more fitting to say 『Witness Horses』 instead of 『Witnesses』…?”

(TL Note: It’s a word play for witness (証人) where the 人 means people but, the Earl changed it to 証馬 where the 馬 means horses . )

However, his whisper was ignored by everyone .

 

Why did the horses pointed to Aragon with Mariel words alone?



The answer is simple, that is, Kaoru had prepared a few patterns in advance so that the horses will act in a certain way by using her movement, and now, Kaoru is bending her wrist in front of her stomach and pointing to Aragon . Hence, the six horses are also doing that as well .

Of course, the horses have a good understanding of what this event is for as they had already been told beforehand . The signals are only to support the words that came from Mariel .

And the crowd who saw it,

 

Crowd: “”””””OOOOOOOOHHH!””””””

Stranger A: “It’s a denunciation towards the murderer who killed the master of the horses who followed the noble lady!”

Stranger B: “They cannot be ordinary horses! This is because of the Goddess power! Amazed by the girl’s determination and the horses’ loyalty, Goddess Celestine must have lend her power to the girl!”

Aragon turned pale when the crowd screamed .


 

Mathrius: “…How is it? Do you have any excuses?”

Earl Mathrius thought that with this, Aragon would give up . After all, it looks like Goddess Celestine is also involved as well, hence Aragon should have no escape from his sin… .

 

Aragon: “Sin? What do you mean by that? It’s just a shrewd little girl who had taught a technique to her horses that are being kept in her own house, though?

And she’s using an atrocious method to make her uncle, who is a direct ancestors, to confess himself as a criminal in an underhanded way! A disgraceful noble little girl who is trying to deprave someone of his nobility, it’s certainly a capital punishment for her…”

 

*Pichon!*

 

Aragon: “……Huh?”

Aragon felt something had fallen onto his head and when he puts his hand on his head,

Aragon: “……Birds…feces?”

*Pichon!*

*Pichon!*

*Pichochochocho……*

 

Aragon: “UWAWAWAWAA!”

Aragon looked up to see what’s going on and saw a scene that he had already familiar with at his home recently .

…In other words, a formation of fighter bomber crow squadron .

 

Stranger A: “See, the Goddess’ Angels have appeared…”

Stranger B: “If you don’t know when to give up, Goddess’ divine punishment will fall upon us!”

Stranger C: “Celestine-sama is not good at aiming, so we, no, the whole kingdom will also be consumed as well! Just confess!!”

The crowds started to make some noises but, if he admits his sin here, he will certainly be beheaded . After all, he had committed a slaughter of a noble household’s head, his wife, and his successor which is an even greater sin than a thief who had committed an arson .

 

Aragon: “I-I don’t know! It might just be a flock of crows which had been given food . Goddess Celestine has no interest in humans’ personal actions…n-no, she probably dispatched them for that little girl’s mischief! After all, I only came here by chance, so the crows objective is this Reifell Viscounty’s head, that is this little girl……”

However, Aragon’s desperate explanation was not convincing everyone as they already see the fact that the only one who got hit by the crows is none other than he himself .

At that time, the corner behind the crowd suddenly fell completely silent .

The quietness gradually spread to the whole crowd .

And there appeared a crevice between the rear crowd which then continued forward towards the main gate of Reifell Viscounty’s residence .

Six masked horses are walking in the center of the crowd, followed by dozens of dogs, dogs, and dogs… .

 

*Pokupokupoku*

 

*Pokupokupokupokupoku……*

 

There’s only one lead horse which is followed by one each on its left and right rear . And three horses are lining up behind them .

Six horses are currently advancing in a pyramid formation . Of course the head is… .

Mariel: “Carlos!!”

Yes, no matter how disguised it is, Mariel could tell who it was .

It was Mariel’s personal riding horse who she had a long relationship with, Carlos .

The Carlos, who was told to be dead before, and then was taught its survival by a mysterious girl .

However, this is not the time to rejoice after a long time . They had to do the roles that was directed by the girl .

 

Mariel: “My Reifell Viscounty riding horse, Carlos! My wish has finally reached the Goddess and she delivered it! And for the divine horses who have delivered him, the Goddess’s angels and dogs, please see the rest of this case until the end!”

Carlos: 『Burururu, Buhihi~~n!!』

Crowd: “”””””OOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHH!””””””

 

(……It’s over now, Aragon……)

Earl Mathrius muttered the words that was on his mind .
