Chapter 668 Chicken Claw Noble
It doesn't matter who laughs at you.
Uncle Lundberg gritted his teeth and trembled all over. He lowered his head and said nothing, but just kept humming.
Darkness felt a little bit reluctant.
"Sir Lundberg..."
"I feel like I can't speak anymore. I'm so angry, I'm as red as a volcano before it erupts."
Huihui also couldn't bear to watch it anymore.
Everyone felt that Uncle Lundberg was a bit miserable. After all, he had gone to so much trouble and made so many preparations. He thought he was on the second floor, but he never expected that researcher Raf was on the fifth floor. He was also deceived.
I don't know how to comfort him.
However, the stupid goddess Aqua covered her mouth, pointed at Uncle Lundberg and sneered loudly: "Puchi Puchi! I say that uncle, he showed off so much power, but in the end he did nothing, what a fool!"
“Hey, hey! Aqua! Don’t point your finger at him, don’t irritate him too much!” Darkness quickly stopped her.
Xiaolin originally sympathized with him.
But when he saw the other person's red and warm warning face turning like a crab, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Um...Senna, what should we do in this situation?"
"...Well, yes. After all, he attempted to subvert the country, so in order to truly expose his crime of subverting the country, we must first arrest him--"
Sena said this very seriously.
But when Uncle Lundberg heard that not only his efforts were in vain, but he also faced arrest and questioning, he could not help but roar in a low voice.
“…You must be joking!”
"that……"
"You don't want to listen to me? This is the property of my Lundberg family! This kind of thing cannot be allowed! I am a noble, the dominant party, and the others only exist to obey!"
He stomped his feet every time he said something.
I understand that he is unwilling to accept this, but this will only make him look very low-class for being angry and embarrassed.
"But why is it like this... I keep getting disappointed...! This kind of thing shouldn't be allowed...!"
He couldn't accept it either.
Well, generally speaking, I'm in a state of collapse.
Aqua pulled at his clothes in fear, "I'm telling you, Xiaolin, that uncle suddenly said something very dangerous."
"This is not good... We should go back before we get into trouble..."
"Shut up! When did I ever allow you to speak?!"
Before they could leave quietly, Uncle Lundberg glared at them fiercely with bloodshot eyes.
Huihui also shuddered.
"Huh?! I feel like I said something very unreasonable."
“Oh, really, damn it…! Anyway, let’s start over, all over again…! To do that, we must first get rid of those who are getting in the way…!”
His excited emotions calmed down.
No, he must have thought about his future plans, as he looked at those people with danger and murderous intent in his eyes.
Hey, hey, hey, this development could be...
At this moment, Uncle Lundberg opened his arms and shouted, "Defense function activated! Come out, Graeme!"
As he was speaking, a Gram jumped out.
It was about 3 meters tall, lavender in color, holding a wand-like object in its hand, and emitting a different kind of light. It looked quite dangerous.
"You really want to attack us!?"
"Since I've let you know so many things, I can't let you go back alive!"
Uncle Lundberg made a firm decision.
Aqua yelled in dissatisfaction: "You are kidding, you idiot! It's just that you are too proud of yourself and keep talking non-stop, right? We did nothing wrong!"
But Uncle Lundberg has lost his mind. He doesn't listen to the stupid goddess at all, but orders his men around.
"Go, defend Grem! Show these people the power of our ancestors that has been passed down from generation to generation!"
"Have no idea!"
Kobayashi and others also took out their weapons.
Darkness decisively stood in front. With her level improved a lot, she exerted all her strength to act as a qualified meat cushion.
Huihui couldn't use explosion magic, but Yunyun had no problem using advanced magic.
While they were trying to restrain Grem, Kobayashi and Ryuzi rushed forward and quickly killed Grem.
“No, impossible…! Graham, the last resort… actually…”
Uncle Lundberg didn't seem to expect that they would solve the problem so easily. He looked at them in surprise. He wanted to deny it, but the parts on the ground told him that this was the truth.
"We have also improved our levels a lot because of you. We can't be defeated so easily."
Xiaolin smiled confidently.
When everything was over, the Kingdom's prosecutor, Sena, came out to clean up.
"… Mr. Lundberg. No, Lundberg."
"what?!"
"I am going to arrest you for subversion of the country. I will ask you for details later. Please come with me."
"N-No! I-I can't be caught yet...ah?!"
Uncle Lundberg staggered, as if he wanted to take the opportunity to slip away, but suddenly his eyes rolled up and his body collapsed to the ground.
Revealing Darkness behind him.
"S-Sorry, he tried to run away so I knocked him out."
“Wow, this old man is still alive after being hit by Darkness’s super strength.”
Huihui exclaimed.
Although Darkness's attack missed, her power should not be underestimated. If she hits him, he will be half-crippled if not killed. Although Aqua can help heal him, it is not worth dying because of this.
The powerful female knight was slightly embarrassed.
Sena didn't blame her, but shook her head and thanked her, "No, it's a great help. If possible, I want to take this man away. I would be very grateful if you can help me."
"I-I know."
Darkness nodded and said to the others, "Xiao Lin, I will take Lord Lundberg away. You guys can go back first."
"Oh, leave it to you."
Kobayashi readily agreed.
Sena is the prosecutor of the kingdom and Darkness is the heir to a great noble family. If neither of them can solve the problem, the rest of the team will be of no help and may even cause more trouble.
but……
It seems like things are becoming more and more confusing.
A lot of things happened and I don’t know what’s going on, but... the bad feeling is getting stronger and stronger.
What will happen to us in the future?
----
the next day.
Kobayashi and Darkness, who were called over by Sena, were interrogated in detail.
Although she knew the general process, the details still needed to be sorted out, which was undoubtedly a huge workload.
The two didn't come back until noon.
Push open the door of the mansion.
Darkness breathed a sigh of relief and said, “You’re finally back.”
"Ah, welcome back." Aqua, who was sitting on the sofa, greeted the two and said in surprise, "You two look very tired."
"Is it so hard?"
Huihui and Youyou also looked concerned.
Xiao Lin rubbed his forehead painfully and complained: "The same question has been asked many times. What we know, Sena should also know..."
Forget it, after all, it involves the crime of subverting the country.
Since it concerns a national affair, the investigation must be carried out with extreme caution. But why is it always linked to me? Is he a collection of troubles in action?
"But I didn't expect Lundberg to have that idea..."
Darkness sighed slightly.
As a great noble in the kingdom, even if they cannot catch up with the Dustinis family, they are not far behind, and it is not a problem for them to live a happy life.
Unfortunately, he was still blinded by power and strength and lost his mind.
Aqua asked curiously, "What about the culprit? Didn't the noble uncle say anything?"
"It seems that Sena is also in a difficult situation as she has remained silent during the interrogation." Kobayashi sighed slightly.
This is the bad thing about aristocrats.
If you remain silent, there will be no evidence. Even if you use a lie detector, it won't work. After all, you can't be convicted as long as you don't speak.
"It seems like I've been dragged into trouble again."
Youyou said softly.
I finally collected all the materials and it turned out like this. How unlucky!
"correct."
Hui Hui was a little surprised and asked, "What about Xiao Lin's crime? Is he still guilty now?"
"There seems to be no problem with the pardon. It's great that Sena is here." Kobayashi felt slightly relieved. People like Sena would definitely not be welcomed in the kingdom, but such people were indispensable in the kingdom, and he was grateful for her care.
"It's a blessing in disguise."
"Haha... I interfered with something that could easily earn me a lot of money, but ended up losing all my levels and equipment, and ended up like this..."
Xiaolin sighed heavily.
Huihui followed up with another attack: “Of course, I won’t get paid. From a profit perspective, it’s a total negative return.”
"Okay, okay, isn't it good that Kobayashi is not dead? Now let's think about the future." Aqua didn't seem to care.
She had always been heartless, and Kobayashi had scolded her for it many times, but now it seemed quite comforting.
"From now on... It's really strange that Aqua would say something so serious."
"What? It makes me sound like I'm just saying weird things."
“Ah, it happens quite frequently.”
"I won't dwell on the past. I will forget everything and live only thinking about tonight's dinner and bubbles! So Xiaolin, forget about all that and help me buy some ingredients and a good bubble bar?"
She said this as a matter of course.
As expected, she is still a useless goddess. I am the real fool for believing that she would say something serious.
I knew it would be like this.
"But, Aqua, is this all right for you? The ribbons that were deposited probably haven't been retrieved yet."
"Eh?"
Aqua was stunned when she heard Megumin say that. There was a clear look of stupidity in her eyes, as if she had just remembered this.
No, it’s more like Xiaolin just remembered it.
So, to prove that I won't run away, I left it with Uncle Lundberg...
Megumin continued, “I thought they would be returned after the party, but I didn’t expect something like this to happen. Aren’t the ribbon and the magic sword still in Lundberg’s mansion?”
"Ah...ah?!"
Aqua screamed.
"Yes, yes, my ribbon! That damn noble said he would return it to me properly, but he broke his promise! Xiaolin, go to that mansion right now! You must get my ribbon back!"
"No, Uncle Lundberg's house is off-limits right now."
Kobayashi said so.
Aqua yelled angrily, "Why?!"
"That's the residence of a noble who was arrested for subverting the country, so it's only natural that no one else is allowed to enter."
"What about my ribbon?! Give it back to me! Give it back to me right now!"
Aqua rushed over, grabbed Kobayashi by the collar and shook him back and forth.
"Let it go! There's no point telling me! If you tell Sena, you can get it back, right?"
"I, I understand! I'll go and ask for help!"
With that, the stupid goddess ran out of the mansion.
Looking at her quickly leaving figure, Xiaolin couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth.
Huihui was also slightly stunned.
"…I'll be leaving soon."
"Don't worry about her. Let her go."
That guy not only forgot everything that happened yesterday, but also forgot everything about his own ribbon. He had clearly said before that it was proof that he was a goddess, and he handed it over reluctantly.
As expected, she is the stupid goddess.
At this moment, Darkness pulled at his clothes.
"...Xiaolin, can we chat for a moment?"
"how?"
"I care a lot about what happens in that dungeon."
"Dungeon?"
Hearing her say this, Xiaolin also pinched his chin and fell into deep thought.
"You're talking about the one that came out of the relic, right?"
"From the results, it was possible to avoid Lundberg using it for evil. But, that magic was released just like that, wasn't it called Valavi? Whatever the result, it's not good to have it released."
What Darkness said made sense.
Although the slime hasn't done anything strange now, there's no guarantee that it won't do anything strange in the future. If it commits an irreparable crime...
Even with Sena as a guarantor, the kingdom will definitely hold him accountable.
Huihui also said with concern: “Although I don’t know the details, there must be a reason for sealing it.”
"I, I think so too." Youyou said timidly: "That magical creature looks very bad. If it causes damage..."
Not good. I'm a little worried.
But Senna seems to be very busy with Uncle Lundberg's affairs now, and she hardly heard anything about the magical creature Valavi during the interrogation of us. Even if we tell her, she will be powerless.
"I'm also concerned about the missing Raph."
Darkness said to him, “How about we track them later?”
"Well...if that's possible, I don't want to get involved in troublesome matters..."
"Xiaolin! After all, we are the ones who unlocked the seal! And as a noble, I must be held responsible for Lundberg's misdeeds. Please, help me track down Valavi."
“…You said so.”
Xiaolin sighed slightly.
"I understand. Since Darkness has said so, let's go track down Valavi."
