What if the villainous aristocrat who is the middle boss remembers his previous life and gains knowledge of the game – I will never accept a future in

c71



I copied the memories of Edran and a suitably selected executive to Clione.

'Let's get out of here,' .

"Okay."

In the process, I picked up Maria, who was waiting in the room, and erased the blowfish that was swimming around.

"......Will you make this one disappear, too?"

The last time I looked at the blowfish in Maria's arms, she told me with tears in her eyes that she didn't want it to be erased.

I will not erase it, but I will inform the people of the city that it is Maria's familiar."

'Thank you!"

'Hu, guu ......'

ーーーーー

Sorry to keep you waiting.

"No, that's our duty."

I thanked the waiting guards and walked out of the stuffing station.

But still, the church's technique has made this longer than planned.

"What are you going to do now?"

'I'm going to inform the Adventurers' Guild, which is currently in command of this whole city, that we will be carrying out the executions this evening."

I had expected it to take longer to fully extinguish the fire, but with the help of the men and adventurers dispatched by the Dicaman family, it seems that the fire is almost completely gone.

One of the reasons for the quick fire extinguishment is that the focus on keeping the fire from spreading caused the fire to lose momentum as there was nothing left to burn within the area of the fire.

"So the food stalls are already starting to open again?"

"It is early."

With the fire out, the city is gradually returning to normal

""......""

But the people's cheerfulness has not returned, and the food stalls seem to have been opened by those who have nothing to do in response to the fire, but by sheer laziness.

Many people in the city have lost their homes, family members, and even close friends and loved ones.

As a first step, the Dickerman family plans to provide those who have lost their homes with shelter assistance, including the rebuilding of tents and houses, but it will take a long time before the town becomes a bright, happy place with smiles all around.

At least until I enroll in the academy,...... No, that might be a little difficult in terms of time frame.

"Well, it doesn't matter ......."

That must have been the word that just leaked out unconsciously.

There is absolutely no one who heard it because of the low voice, but it makes me a little sad to see the change in Maria who was thinking about the people so much.

"Fugu?"

'Fugu-chan is so cute.'

Maria's self-talk increased as more and more people arrived.

She nicknamed Fugu "Fugu-chan" and kept lifting him up in front of her face to make eye contact with him.

I don't know the extent of Maria's ability to see with her eyes, but if she can hear the voices of more than one person at the same time, it is unimaginably distressing.

The people in the city are looking at me strangely, and it may affect the reputation of the Dicaman family somewhat.

I open the door to my destination, thinking of a cure in the corner of my mind.

"We're coming in."

We have arrived at the Adventurers' Guild, where those who have lost their homes are temporarily staying.

"Hm? Oh, my lord!"

"You look well."

Of course I am.

Even though the fire was successfully extinguished, the city's reconstruction was not finished, and thanks to the disappearance of a church from the city's power, the burden on us, the Adventurers' Guild and the local people, had increased."

Even those things were working at a minimum.

I haven't looked into it in detail, but I'm guessing they did a little bit of personnel management and direction.

But that's not the problem, the problem is that I haven't been particularly involved in the management of the church since I captured them.

Without my knowledge, I had caused hardship not only to the head of the guild, but also to the Dicaman family.

"Well, never mind all that, what are you here for today?"

""I'm here to talk about the execution of church officials.""

"!!!!"

The word "execution" draws the attention of the people around them. The talking has completely disappeared.

" ...... Shall we change the location?"

No, it'll spread soon, and we'll be fine right here."

The guild leader narrows his eyes and looks at me as if to glare at me.

I even feel a little bit of bad emotion.

Hmmm, I don't know why he would feel that way.

"Today, as the sun sets, the crimes will be read out and the executions will take place in the central square."

"...... Okay, I get it."

Perhaps the guild leader is also involved?

But my hatred for the church was also genuine, so I don't think he's involved.

The only other thing I can think of is ......

Mistrust of the lack of a trial?

In a royal capital, there is basically no need to hold a trial if a case of this scale occurs in a nobleman's territory.

Oh, no, because the time until the execution was so short, perhaps he thinks that the investigation was not thorough enough.

"It was a short process, but it was a result of a thorough investigation.

If you are not satisfied with the results, then let's reexamine them, as the head of the Adventurers' Guild, who has focused on the city's needs, has suggested.

The Adventurers' Guild is welcome to conduct its own investigation if it so desires."

"I didn't mean to offend the lord, just from an outsider like me ......."

My defense removed any bad feelings from the guild leader.

After a pause, the guild leader continued as if he had just spoken to me.

"The Dicaman family and the church have been bitter enemies for many years, but recently the relationship, which had appeared to be reasonably good, if not reconciled, has broken down.

Rumors are definitely going to circulate."

The fire signaled the beginning of a battle for survival between the Dicaman family and the church.

"It's better to have the king and other powerful nobles on board.

Thank you for your concern."

It is none of my business.

But judging from the guild leader's behavior, there is a slight possibility that the Adventurers' Guild may be in trouble with the church.
