The checkpoint at the foot of the Munca mine.

You are cleared through. Ladies and gentlemen, please come in.

Thank you for your service.

After presenting a permit for passage, handwritten by His Majesty, and undergoing a brief inspection of our belongings, we stepped into the mountains where the thugs are imprisoned.

The route through the mining area can only be used if you declare in advance ...... for risk management reasons.

There are strict rules in place because if anyone is in a state where they can pass easily, the crime slaves will escape.

"Ladies and gentlemen, if you're not feeling well, please don't hesitate to tell me. Due to the location, it won't be comfortable, but ...... we'll make arrangements for you to lie down and rest.

Thank you for your concern.

The Munca and Salvage mines are state-owned mines that produce gems and rare metals and serve as a prison facility that punishes thugs.

The huge profits from the mines, the backgrounds of the criminal slaves housed there, etc., are all factors that lure people to injustice. ...... The mines are run with great care.

Only officials who are recognized for their moral character are allowed to serve as guards, and the revenue reports that go to the palace are checked multiple times.

There is also an extensive system for individuals to report wrongdoing, so if you do something wrong, you will be exposed immediately.

However, it is also true that there are a certain number of people who work as ...... guards who give in to their desires and become steeped in evil.

I've heard that there are some guards who are found to be dishonest from time to time and end up on the side of justice.

The man who is guiding us now, who calls himself the head guard, is probably one of them.

It's a good way to keep up appearances because of the profession of the guards, but ...... has been a harmonious influence on the detection of signs and symptoms since the first time we met.

I don't feel any resentment, so it's not a personal grudge.

I can tell in advance with a little research that we're going down the mining route, and I'm wondering if someone's bought off on us for money.

I have no idea who is behind this: ...... There are so many things I can think of that I have no idea.

If something happens to the grantor in the state-run mine, the person responsible is His Majesty Normir.

The investigation will likely lead to the arrest of the culprit and his or her associates, but I think the damage done to the mastermind is less severe than working in King's Landing or on the territory of other noble families.

If the person who instigated the guard chief was a high ranking member of the aristocracy, all they had to do was cut off the tail of the person who was the link.

''Jinx-sama, it's exceptionally hot today.

'Yes. Wearing protective gear makes me sweat.

He doesn't seem to be willing to do anything about it himself, but he's only getting more harmful.

Do you want to poison us? .......

Or maybe he's just trying to lead us to a dangerous place to die.

"We have plenty of drinks for you to drink. If you're thirsty, please don't hesitate to ask.

Thank you. Now, may I have a drink?

I'll be right with you. Master Zink, please have a drink.

〜Poison tea

Ingredients: Special grade tea leaves from the Muwen region

Magenthoekis

Effect: Dulls the thinker's ability to think and is highly dependent

Feel free to say hey ...... how dare you use a tasteless, odorless poison that will make gold coins fly off in a single vial.

'Kokkuh ...... Kokkuh ...... Kokkuh ....... Whew, thank you very much. It quenched my thirst.

Create an item box entrance in your mouth and pour the poisonous tea into a different space while pretending to drink it.

Examining this liquid later should prove that Magenthowex was used.

''If you say so, it will be worth preparing it. Please let me know whenever you want it.''

The warden receives my thanks and returns my words with a smile.

He doesn't seem to have a shred of idea that his plan has already been exposed.

Yes, I do. Thank you for your concern.

Even though it's an act, there's no way I'm going to let anyone but myself drink poisoned tea. ...... Barker.

Master. I have sent a letter to Duke Voncker's personal "distant letter" to inform him of the situation. I have sent a letter to your Majesty.

Thank you, Ian. Keep in touch.

I'm sorry, sir.

We had a chat with the warden and shared information with our companions, paying close attention to make sure he didn't notice us.

We were whispering to each other with wind magic and sending letters of urgency to the higher-ups in the capital.

The human body is big, so you can at least hide the letter as long as you're careful about the direction you're facing, and ...... ink can be managed by smearing blood on your fingertips.

We are beloved by trouble, we are used to emergencies, and we regularly simulate incidents.

Fortunately or unfortunately, we don't get flustered by this level of trouble.

We've received a letter of permission to retaliate against the warden, so we can counterattack him at any time.

However, in times like these, sincerity is important.

It's better to get permission and beat them up properly, because it will lead to a better impression of His Majesty's people in the capital.

If you always maintain an insolent attitude, when you fall behind for some reason, you may be ostracized.

Even if it's a true emergency, you should deal with it in good faith when you can afford it.

'Brother. The letter with the blood letters, it's quite impressive. If that thing arrives out of the blue, it looks like a heart attack.''

Yes, Esther. There's probably a lot of noise in King's Landing by now.

Well, ...... it's an emergency, it has to be.

As soon as you get my news, you'll have to find out sooner than later so that you have proof that Her Majesty and her people have taken care of it.




Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
