The reincarnated god of war cuts down the empire
Count Arsene (2)
“… … .”
There was literally complete silence.
The silence is so loud that even the sound of a pin falling can be heard.
“What bullshit did I just hear?”
“… … .”
Eventually, a harsh voice penetrated my eardrums, and my mouth naturally closed.
Of course, this reaction was expected to some extent.
‘This life is truly refreshing. ‘When was the last time you heard someone talk about bullshit in your past life?’
I even burst out laughing inside.
I’ve experienced this a few times, so I’m pretty used to it.
Of course, I knew this well from experience.
For guys like that, a stick is medicine.
However, this time I’m going to take a slightly different approach.
Because I am no longer Enslot Heil Edenberg, commander of the eastern part of the Empire in my past life.
In these situations, if you kill and eliminate all of your opponents, you are nothing more or less than a murderer.
Moreover, the masked bastard watching from the tree will leave information about my current appearance as well.
“Let’s go nicely. “I don’t feel so bad today.”
“Hey, there. Someone please take off that guy’s pants. “Shouldn’t you at least check whether or not the slave you are offering to your goddam is the right one?”
Now it really seemed like they were treating my words as just bullshit being barked out somewhere.
“Let me take it off!”
At the knight’s command, one of the soldiers came forward excitedly.
“OK. try.”
“Hehehe, you idiot. “Enough of this nonsense, I’ll just have to check with the old man to see if it’s there or not.”
puck!
I lightly threw the rock I was holding at the approaching soldier.
The soldier who got hit by that exact thing said, ‘Quack!’ It falls down with a sound.
The three knights also clearly witnessed this.
“… … Anyway, at the level of the soldiers.”
“These guys, we need to go back and do something about it. Pathetic bastard. And now it’s like getting hit by a kid and fainting… … .”
Was it because I overheard their constant conversation?
Soon dozens of soldiers stiffen in shock.
“I will do it! “Give me a chance!”
Soon another soldier raised his hand and shouted.
Among those who came with him, he was the youngest soldier.
“okay?”
The driver points at me with his chin.
“Do better this time.”
“yep!”
This time, it was a young soldier with a burning will for some unknown reason.
“… … This is your chance. “I will leave a deep impression on the knights and become their squire.”
Count Arsene gives its knights the privilege of selecting a personal squire from among the family’s private soldiers every three years.
To private soldiers, being selected as a knight squire was a kind of success.
First of all, the salary increases.
Conversely, there is much less work to be done.
Not only is there no need for sentry duty or daily arduous training, but there is also the need to act as a meat shield at the forefront if a war breaks out.
A squire only has to worry about the convenience of the knight he serves.
Occasionally, life becomes difficult when you serve a knight with a bad personality, but that’s just my luck.
On the other hand, if you meet a good driver, your future life will bloom without any hesitation.
“What have you been muttering to yourself since a while ago?”
“shut up!”
Are you trying to take off my pants after subduing me?
The young soldier grabbed his spear and rushed towards me.
“Aaaah!”
slap!
I was so clumsy that I easily avoided the spear that made me yawn.
Then, I snatched the spear with my own hands.
“uh… … ?”
The soldier whose weapon was taken away in an instant opens his mouth blankly.
“That’s not how you use a spear.”
I looked around at the spear in my hand for a moment.
Even though it was on the outskirts, the condition of the weapon was not bad, probably because it came from a high-ranking noble family.
When it comes to windows, weight balance is more important than anything else.
In that sense, the weapon that came into my hands was definitely of high quality.
“… … good.”
Kugu soup.
Soon I took a stance.

I especially didn’t like the guys called knights who just looked at me with their arms crossed as if they were making a fuss.
What’s wrong with helpless soldiers?
“Sigh.”
Take a deep breath.
The arm holding the spear is pulled behind the back.
Like an arrow tied to a string, the muscles of my entire body contract tightly.
Awesome!
Soon, the spear in my hand shot to one side like a thunderbolt.
“omg!”
Was that speed completely unexpected?
“P, P hat!”
The mighty knights couldn’t even think of stopping them and quickly rolled their bodies onto the dirt.
Whoa whoa!
The spear passed right past the knights and hit the tree right behind where they were standing.
It was still trembling, and the power contained within it could be felt up to here.
This is a warning.
Because I wasn’t aiming for them in the first place.
“this… … “You fucking brat?”
In the end, the knights became angry.
From their perspective, they rolled down to the dirt to avoid a spear thrown by a mere slave.
“That’s what I told you, I would go smoothly.”
“… … .”
Even the death sinks on the knights’ faces.
If you don’t feel anything after seeing this move… … .
‘Yes, that will be your fate too.’
Javelin throwing is a more difficult skill than it looks.
Moreover, the ability to fire a weapon this far away is not something that just anyone can do.
In the end, when I was wondering if I should kill them all.
“… … for a moment. “He’s not an ordinary kid.”
The oldest knight, who had remained silent until now, soon spoke up.
“You guy, what is your identity?”
“You already know, right? I am a slave who was promised to be sold to your family. So, in terms of status, I guess I would be a ‘prospective slave.’”
“The young man speaks briefly. Other than that… … .”
“If you find out, you will get hurt. “Let’s just go.”
“… … .”
Silence fell again.
“The important thing is that some pig kidnapped me and tried to sell me as a slave to you.”
“pig… … ?”
Another guy quickly whispers to the senior knight who is questioning him blankly.
“It seems like you are referring to the master.”
“… … My name is Hans. “What is your name?”
I gave a short answer to Senior Engineer Hans’ question.
“It’s Enslot.”
“That’s a good name. Yes, Enslot. What can we do? “That is your destiny.”
“what?”
“Just think of it as passing by and stepping on poop. It’s something that can’t be helped. Who would blame you if you were struck by lightning from the sky while walking down the street? “I guess I’ll just have to accept death.”
Naturally, a chill appeared on my face at that answer.
“As expected, you guys also knew the identity of that pig.”
“… … .”
They responded with silence.
Well, I guess he helped with this transaction without even asking about the slave’s status.
Even if something went wrong, he would have been confident that the pig’s back would solve it.
“Is that your answer as a ‘knight’?”
“… … !”
For the first time, Hans’ skin turned red.
“It was a thunderbolt that fell from the sky… … . “Yes, that pig is the illegitimate son of the Marquess of Foltain, right?”
“Watch your mouth. “If you drop your snout without knowing the subject, your neck will roll on the dirt.”
“Hehehe. “You mean like you guys just now?”
At my ridicule, the youngest knight finally said, ‘Chop!’ I pulled out my sword.
“That fucking brat?”
“Or, like this guy?”
I walked straight to a corner and picked up something lying on one side of the forest.
A round object hidden in the grass was soon revealed to the world.
“Now that I think about it, you might know this guy.”
Tuk, degurrrrr.
I threw the head of a knight who died a while ago.
“omg! Yes, a human neck?”
“for a moment! That looks familiar for some reason… … ?”
“Hey, this guy. Isn’t it Thomas? This is Marquis Foltain’s C-rank knight. Why, it appeared in last year’s friendly inter-families knight contest… … ?”
visor!
Soon even Hans can’t stand it anymore and pulls out his sword.
“How dare you murder a knight!”
“He deserved to die.”
“Do you think you can get away with breaking the laws of the land?”
A knight is the property of the country to which he or she was given the title.
Since the property was destroyed at will, this should be governed by the law of the land.
one.
“This guy broke the law of the land. “Furthermore, it’s you guys.”
“what?”
“Still not able to understand the situation? The people of the kingdom are also the king’s property. However, a mere servant’s blood dared to steal the king’s property and even engage in illegal slave trading for personal gain. “The driver you are so proud of took bribes and entertainment and looked after him.”
I flinch.
Hans stopped moving at my explicit words.
“that… … .”
“If the king of this country finds out about this, who will he severely punish? Are you going to punish you guys for being one huge cartel? Or will he punish his poor subjects for trying to protect themselves from such evil forces?”
“… … !”
Only then did the knights completely shut their mouths.
“As you can see, not only the slave traders but also the knight died by my hands. Even receiving a reward from the country would not be enough for this. “If I had left it alone, it would have continued to do so.”
“really… … “You killed him?”
I nodded.
I have no choice but to trust these guys anyway.
Because if you don’t believe it, the current situation can’t be explained.
“I will hand over the pigs I have caught to the country in accordance with the strict laws of the country. In that case, not only the Marquess of Poltain, but also you, Count Arsene, who tried to buy slaves, will not be able to avoid responsibility.”
Grrrr.
Soon the three knights begin to tremble.
Then, they whisper among themselves again.
“This should never happen. “If the head of the family knows this, we won’t be able to just ignore it.”
“Just kill it. “Aren’t dead people silent?”
A grin formed on my lips.
I can hear it all, you motherfuckers.
I knew that would happen, so I left a trump card.
I also had a debt that I had to repay to someone else.
“Hey, if you go! “Stop watching and come out here.”
“… … .”
As expected, all that came back was silence.
“If you don’t come out now, even if I deal with them, you will never know the whereabouts of the gods. “You sure don’t want that, do you?”
“… … .”
Only then did the tree seem to tremble for a moment, and then something fell down.
“really… … “This is troublesome.”
The masked guy scratches his head as if he is truly troubled.
“Bah, night mask?”
The knights widened their eyes at that sight.
That mask on the face is nothing but a symbol of the organization.
“I never thought you would call me at a time like this… … .”
“If you enjoyed the sightseeing, now you have to pay for the sightseeing.”
“Caliber value… … “What?”
“Didn’t you say earlier that you were curious about the contents of the letter I requested? “I’ll tell you now.”
Startle.
Soon, the guy stiffened up.
This guy is definitely quick-witted.
“The contents of that letter… … Could it be this?”
“If you pretend, you’re good.”
“What the hell are you…” … . “Did you anticipate this situation from the time you wrote the letter?”
The masked guy asked me one question after another in a trembling voice.
“no. I just thought I would receive a reward from the country for recruiting the head and pig of a guy named Thomas who broke the law of the land. Do you think it was me who knew that the knights were so rotten?”
Honestly, I knew.
Because you can see the whole thing by looking at one thing.
“Are you telling me to believe that?”
“It’s true.”
“I guess capturing me was all part of your plan.”
Finally, the masked guy sighs and looks at the knights.
Because even then, he was being stared at with stinging gaze.
“… … The introduction is late. “I am the green number 4 of the Night Mask.”
“Why on earth does the Night Mask help slaves?”
“To me, you are not a slave, but a client.”
“client… … ?”
When Hans asks a question, he nods his head.
“I received a request from a client here. The original principle is to keep the requested content strictly confidential, but it seems like this is what the client wants… … .”
The mask looked at me with resentful eyes for a moment and then continued speaking.
“… … “What you just heard about here will all be conveyed to the palace, even if something goes wrong with the client here.”
“… … !”
Not only the knights, but even the soldiers’ faces are turning white.
Again, the correspondence that was originally supposed to go to Count Arsene was burned and destroyed.
And, the letter to be sent to the Marquis of Foltain was edited and handed over to the Night Mask.
There was no mysterious spray or anything like that, but I just told the truth about what I experienced.
Ordinary citizens were kidnapped as slaves, your family’s knight named Thomas ordered the slave he was trying to sell to satisfy his own self-interest, and the blood of the head of the family would be transferred to the palace according to the laws of the land.
The content to be sent to the royal palace was in the same context.
If I revealed my identity, there was a strong possibility that these people would be punished even more, but I held back because I was worried that the evil queen would find out about my whereabouts and send an assassin.
“how is it? “If you’re planning on killing me to keep me quiet, then you’ll have to do the same to me when I get here, right?”
It is a mask of the night.
They are a huge information organization that spans the entire continent.
Again, they always complete the requests they are assigned to, even if it is for the sake of the organization’s trust.
It would be foolish to turn the mask of the night into an enemy over something like this.
Above all, this was not a matter that could be decided by small-minded people.
So, in the end, the answer they had to give was decided.
“… … first… … “I’m taking you to the head of the family.”
Hans muttered through gritted teeth.
Finally, the answer I wanted came out.
“It will happen soon.”
The look in the masked guy’s eyes as he looks at me mumbling like that becomes strange again.
“I knew you weren’t an ordinary person, but… … “I never dreamed that you would even use me.”
“Do you know what Chapter 7 of the iron rules I established are?”
I finished speaking without waiting for the other person to respond.
“Use everything you can. Especially on the battlefield.”
And, from now on, this was my battlefield.
