[Since a while ago, you people had been saying <I came from the royal capital> or <I’m an envoy>, but there is a possibility that the envoy received a mission from the boss of the criminal organization in the capital to kidnap a child. Without stating the name of the client nor the business you have with me, even if you say that you’re just an envoy who came from the royal capital, it does not explain anything, and it is not reassuring whatsoever. I have no idea.
And I don’t even know if what you’re saying is true…] Kaoru
[Wha…] Bureaucrat
After being stuck for a moment, the bureaucrat tried to yell at me again but immediately noticed the gazes of Emil, who’s holding the handle of the sword he had worn on his waist, and the neighbors who’re looking at him with scary eyes. He closed his mouth that he had just opened.
[Anyway, I’ve never been to the royal capital of this country, I have no family, relatives, or even acquaintances living in the royal capital, and I have no idea of anyone who might be able to help me. I’m wondering if some villain had noticed me, since he’s doing things such as trying to trick me into kidnapping and making me an illegal slave, or thinking that I was simply a little girl and threaten me so they can steal my shop. so……] Kaoru
[Wait, what are…] Bureaucrat
To my words, the bureaucrat has his eyes wide open. But what I’ve said was not really strange. So, the neighbors’ glares were quite intense……
And, as the situation continues…….
[Hey, I brought you the guardsman-an-chan.] Man
An uncle in the neighborhood brought me a guardsman in his mid-20s.
The guardsman is neither from the royal capital, nor is he a strong elite soldier. He is just an ordinary low-ranking soldier from the local area who has just been trained. ……And he is <one of the people in the city> who knows everyone.
…In other words, he moves with the intention of protecting the local people rather than the outsiders. Especially when comparing the underage (looking) girls against the three people who are getting agitated and are about to commit unscrupulous acts.
[You guys, you broke into the store suddenly and threatened the children!] Guardsman
Oh, he’s going full throttle from the beginning, guardsman-san!
Ah, when I thought that guardsman-san’s gaze moved, I saw a woman about 17 to 18 years old among the bystanders!
Wa ha~a, are you perhaps trying to show off to the young women?
Well, it is convenient for me to keep it on the track, especially if he came out boasting such strong attitude.
[What are you saying, I’m from the royal capital…] Bureaucrat
[Yeah, that’s all you said from the beginning, and I don’t even know your name, your client’s name, or even your business with me in the first place. It’s just that and nothing else…] Kaoru
Yes, I haven’t even heard his name yet.
He should’ve just stated his name, the client’s name, and the nature of business from the very beginning. But instead, he looked down on me like I’m just a little girl and suddenly yelled at me in an interrogating tone, so that’s why this had happened.
He wouldn’t be able to give the client’s name in front of the guardsman and a lot of people anymore.
If he do that, the rumors will spread quickly like wildfire. So the more influential that person is, the less likely he will give the person-in-question’s name.
Well, he will be taken by the guard, so he can give him that person’s name where the others cannot hear him, in order to prove his innocence. ……If he can prove it, that is.
[You…] Bureaucrat
After staring at me with murderous eyes, the bureaucrat said to the guardsman.
[I’m from the royal palace. Do you know what happens if you go against me!] Bureaucrat
However, the guardsman has a calm face.
[…And so, can you prove it?] Guardsman
[Such a thing, these two can testify!] Bureaucrat
But the guardsman who heard it just shrugged it.
[…And how will you prove that they are related to the royal palace?] Guardsman
[Eh……] Bureaucrat
No wonder. That will happen…
[Ei! Do you know what will happen to you after this!] Bureaucrat
[No, even if you claim that the current offender of a criminal act is a high-ranking person, if I don’t believe it and just let it go, I will get fired? Even if you really are working for a high ranking person, I don’t think I’ll be scolded for catching someone like you in the act of criminal activity. I might even get praised for it.
This is not a rotten city where we can overlook criminal activity if the offenders are high-ranking officials.] Guardsman
[Eh……] Bureaucrat
Oh, this city is pretty solid!
Well, even if you say <criminal act>, they’re like trying to force a clerk to with their authority. If I were an adult man, it might have been just a dispute between the customer and the clerk, but as a woman…, and I look like a minor girl, with the way of the conversation earlier. From their point of view, it can’t be helped if it’s perceived as an attempted case of something quite bad.
Well, the fact that he would have forced me to talk about various things and then take me to the royal capital, so that’s about right.
Anyway, for the time being, please calmly go to the station with the guardsman.
It may just be an attempt, but he’s likely to have a certain status, so maybe he’ll be squeezed out of information by the guardsman and his superiors at the station.
As expected, he wouldn’t put them in prison, since they didn’t touched us directly.
But they’re likely to get a warning that they should never approach us again.
Ah, that’s right!
[Hey, can I get that person to come closer to me?] Kaoru
[Hmm? Oh, I don’t mind…] Guardsman
With that being said, the guardsman, who’s being vigilant, urged the bureaucrats to approach me.
[Can you see the color of my eyes?] Kaoru
[Eh? Ah, I understand.] Bureaucrat
After that, the bureaucrat brought his face closer to mine and looked into my eyes.
[Eh, light hazel brown……] Bureaucrat
The bureaucrat has a stunned face. As expected, you thought that I had black hair and black eyes, didn’t you?
That means that he inevitably knew about the angel.
[Also……] Kaoru
And when I took my wig off.
[Wha, brown hair!] Bureaucrat
Alright, he should now know that I’m not the [self-proclaimed angel of Balmoa Kingdom]. ……No, I’ve never called myself such thing, only them.
Have you heard it from that light-mouthed pharmacist old man? Or did you follow someone from the barn and asked about the Viscount Reifel family? Did those merchants who came from royal capital had the same source of info?
In any case, we’re just a small store that has nothing to do with the angels of Balmoa Kingdom or the miracles of the Viscount Reifel and Baron Drivel. They should have thought so.
And for the finisher…
[Perhaps, someone purposefully misinformed you, just like those merchants? The merchants said, <black hair, black eye colors>, so when I showed them the color of my eyes and the color of my real hair underneath my wig, they immediately withdraw, so I showed it to you in the same way.……] Kaoru
[Wha……] Bureaucrat
All right, mission-complete!
With this, it was set in stone that we were just a little store that sold medicinal herbs to that shitty old man, and that we had nothing to do with other matters. I have nothing to do with the Viscount Reifel family, and I don’t know the Baron Drivel family.
The horses?
There aren’t many horse shops in the suburbs that takes good care of horses, so it’s just a coincidence that the place where I left my horses was the same horse shop of the Viscount Reifel family.
…Or, in fact, that’s actually true.
If you look at when we came to this city, when we left Ed and others, it’s easy to see that it’s irrelevant. In the first place, there is no reason to bother to leave our horses in the same ranch and do something that catches the eye of suspicious people.
Now this bureaucrat will not be able to show up to us anymore. If he comes again, that time he’s going to jail.
And he can’t honestly tell his boss that he made such a blunder, which was caused by his arrogant attitude, that he couldn’t make a contact since he couldn’t state the client’s name and his business with me, so maybe. I will be completely removed from his report.
Perhaps they’ve known the rumors about angel of Balmoa Kingdom for a long time, but they’ve known me here as a similar girl or a merchant who have been on the line of investigation ever since I came to this city. It wouldn’t be a problem if he didn’t included that in the report, as he only knew it as a result of a close investigation and listening to rumors.
And now, the bureaucrat would really think of me as <a simple pest, cheeky and annoying little girl>.
And so, the bureaucrats were taken-in by the guarsman-oniisan.
Alright, this should all be finished.
From tomorrow onward, a free and peaceful life will begin once again. Alright…
