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

The place where the knocked down Silas was exploring was fortunately far away from the servants and Mina, and considering the possibility of some kind of accident, I sent the nearby Silas to check the situation.

Butu!

The connection with Silas was also severed.

“Hmmm... .......”

Even though he has no combat power, he can't be too careful with someone who can defeat a person in an instant without sharing information with that little Cirrus.

Confirming the earrings, rings, necklaces, and battle magic tools obtained at the Temple of Jealousy, I headed to the place where Silas was defeated.

“[Silas]."

[Pi_......]”

The summoned Silas is crying mournfully in front of the room where the connection with the two Silas was severed, as if it had sensed something.

"Go."

[......]

Butu!

The connection with Silas was lost within seconds of unceremoniously entering the room.

I've been listening carefully ever since I rushed Silas into the room, and the fact that the connection was broken without hearing any strange noises shows that Silas is not able to resist in the least.

The number of Silas knocked down in this room is 3.

It is hilarious that a hostile person would stay in the same room all the time, considering that information is not being shared.

In other words, it is fair to assume that there is not a hostile presence in the room, but a snare of some kind.

I don't know what kind of trap it is, but it's not a problem if we can check it with no injuries for once thanks to the magical equipment.

Rumble ......

The door is slowly opened.

There seems to be no set use for this room, just a simple room with a desk and four chairs.

In such a room, there is one foreign presence.

"Nu~~”

"......”

A mysterious being with a round body, beard, quadrupedal gait, and fluffy hair looked up at me as I entered through the door.

'Nu~~'

Chillin'

For the time being, there seemed to be no danger, but I was at a loss as to what to do with this mysterious creature, so I rang the bell I had received.

“You wanted to speak to me, ?”

So early.

"Is this living creature also a gift from His Majesty?”

The creature ...... No, you have not heard anything about it I see.”

When the guide turned his attention to the mysterious creature that continued to whimper, he answered in a somewhat surprised manner.

}This creature is a Nuko, I suppose. It is a basically harmless creature with considerable covert ability and magic resistance.

It is a very favored creature among the nobility, who keep it to exterminate vermin and pests of all kinds, starting with the Nezumo.”

“......”

Unfortunately, it seems that my wrens were deemed harmful to the nuco and were exterminated at a very rapid rate.

No, wait, I mean, why is it here if it wasn't a gift from His Majesty's people?

"Did the Wild get in here?”

"No, as I explained earlier, Nuco is quite popular and highly vigilant, so it is a living creature and almost never to be found in the wild.

At the very least, there should be no wild ones here in the capital.'

Then why is it here?

"Perhaps...someone had a Nuko in their possession and it escaped.

It will take some time to find it because it is not wearing a collar, but I will deliver it to the Knights.'

'I see, then, thank you.”

Inserting my arm into his stomach, I lifted the nuco up easily, not seeming to be resisting in particular.

Where was his caution?

“‘Noooo...’”

"......"

“Noooooo!”

What the hell is wrong with him?

I had noticed him staring at me while I was talking to the guide.

Eventually, he was carried outside and kept squealing without averting his gaze until I was out of sight.

Phew. ......”

That was a disturbing curiosity, wasn't it?

Now that I've confirmed that it's safe to go, let's go read the letter from His Majesty, even though my schedule has deviated.

Having determined that Nuko was in no danger, and having accepted the information from Silas again while I was dealing with Nuko, I had a complete grasp of the mansion.

The study where the letter from the king was said to be placed is located at the end of the third floor of the mansion, a place for a siege in case of an attack of some kind.

It can be reached by climbing the stairs in front of Nuko's room.

"Well, the letter is ......."

At first glance, the study is full of luxurious furniture, and the shelves for documents and books are empty, making the room feel a little lonely.

The letter was on the desk.

{Khalil, did you like the mansion?

I am sorry to summon you to the capital so suddenly, but it was necessary for us to talk about the future, I hope you will understand.

I prefer to speak to you in person rather than via letter, so I'll skip the explanation here, but let's talk about it at the party and gathering that you must attend from now on.

Please check the enclosed sheet of paper for the details regarding our future arrangements.

Your friend, Carius Guillaume Vengarten}

I read the letter, which is as close as ever, and look at the enclosed items.

'Wow. ......'

A voice came out unintentionally.

The calendar engraved with the dates up to the time of my enrollment was inscribed with the letters of the royal castle every day, and various appointments were made twice a day.

Besides,

The party's still fine. But what is this chatty lunch time?”

The participants were the king, the prime minister, and myself, and I'm sure they just want to talk.

I'm too nervous to enjoy the taste of a meal with those two, even the finest food.

”Chatting breakfast, chatting dinner, chatting tea time...... mostly chatting!'

Can't I take a break? ......
