Chapter 149 Strongest Sage, Obtains Permission



 

"There's a letter!"

A certain evening .
There was a letter in the mailbox in our inn's room when we got back .
No sender is written .

" . . . Is this another harassment by the city ruler?"

"I wonder if they've given up trying to beat us upright?"

Alma and Ruli observed the letter as they said that .
The city ruler's underlings have been attacking us everyday in this past week indeed .
I don't blame them for getting suspicious at this letter in this situation, but . . . it's different this time .

"No, this isn't from the city ruler . It's the letter we've all been waiting for instead . "

I unfold the letter after saying that .
I haven't put my guard down, but there should be nothing weird written on it .
The content is in line with my expectations too .

"Look, this . "

I spread the letter .

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Need to pass you a letter . Will wait on the dungeon floor 2 .
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

This all that's written .
There's a dungeon map drawn below with sign marked on a location .
This is the place the sender is waiting at huh .

" . . . What does this mean?"

"I can't think of it as anything but a suspicious invitation by the city ruler . . . Maybe he's put a trap there . . . . "

"If he wanted to pass a letter, he could just have put it in the mailbox like with this one . . . . "

"No . This should be different . If they're going to attack us, they wouldn't purposely do it on floor 2 and they would have written the appointed time . And above all . . . the reason they gave is too suspicious to be a trap . "

Basically, the higher the dungeon floor, the more people are there .
You'd find someone just by walking a bit on floor 2 .
They would have chosen a deeper floor if they intended to ambush us .



And the reason for calling us would have been a bit less suspicious .

"Then just who . . . "

"This person probably came to meet us as ordered by the king . Pretending to be an adventurer make them less suspicious, and there's no way a letter from the king be dropped in this mailbox just like that . "

" . . . . I see! It's true that getting found out by the city ruler will be troublesome!"

"Which means, the king's messenger is waiting in the dungeon . . . We've got to hurry!"

"Yeah . We should hurry but still careful as to not raise suspicion . "

We hurried to the dungeon .



10 minutes after we found the letter .
We arrived at the location specified in the letter .

There's no one in the appointed place .
. . . Or so it looks it .



"We're here to receive the letter . Could you show yourself up?"

I said so and waved the letter toward the wall .
And then a part of the wall disappeared . . . and a man appeared out of thin air .

"Please excuse me . I'm called Eiku . I was ordered to keep myself hidden until Mathias-sama found me as His Majesty believed you definitely would . "

Eiku bowed in front of me as he said that .
His equipment look like that of an adventurer, but . . . his movements don't .

He's probably a secret agent employed by the royal family .
The magic he used to hide himself is also one of the less objectionable ones I saw in this world too .

"The reason you rigorously hid yourself that far . . . . is to avoid getting found out by the city ruler, am I correct?"

"Yes . My order is to deliver this letter without the city ruler's knowledge and to accompany you if necessary . "

Eiku handed over a letter as he said that .
The letter is stamped with the royal family's crest .

I receive the letter and open it .
The content is . . . written with something that goes beyond my expectations .

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
I have received your report regarding the current ruler of Melkia City, Dogiel Melkia .
We have carried out an investigation about his tyranny ourselves, and the situations are just as Mathias reported, it cannot be forgiven .
Thus, the instant this letter is delivered to Mathias, Melkia Household is to be abolished and Dogiel Melkia is to be executed .

In addition, if you wish for it, Mathias and his party, with Eiku as a representative of the royal family, can act as a proxy to arrest the current city ruler .
In that case, you are permitted to execute him on the spot if you deem it necessary to .

As we expect him to put on a resistance, be advised to prepare your force .
But that's probably not needed if Mathias agrees to take part .
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

" . . . Mathias-sama, would you like to act as a proxy for the arrest?"

"Yeah . I'd like to . "

I immediately replied Eiku's inquiry .
With this, we can make our move now .




TLN: With this chapter, we have caught up with the raw of Shikkaku Mon
