Chapter 183 Trust?

Part 2

He could no longer understand what was going on at all.

They were attacked by a large group of Monsters that didn’t come because of the man. Probably due to the man’s curse, multiple Dragon carcasses were found on the way. Originally, any one of the things that happened was so unexpected that it would have been enough to suspend the escort mission.

But still, the situation was turning out to be extremely favorable for the man.

In a more favorable direction than the direction that the man had assumed would work out.

When something so ununderstandable happens, even the man can’t stay calm.

Until now, Emperor――Radrick Atrum Zebrudia had always been surrounded by his Imperial Guard. That important task had never been entrusted to anyone else.

However, who would have thought…… He was informed that from tomorrow onwards, he would be mixed with the Imperial Guard and would escort the Emperor while being close by.

He first doubted his ears when he heard it from him.

The behavior of 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》 was too mysterious. Leaving the escort behind and going away, and not even making a decent excuse, wasn’t something a Hunter would do.

He thought they were going to be pulled out. It was 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》 who acted foolishly, but if the Leader of the Party made a mistake, it was only natural that all the Members would be affected.

And knowing that, the man was in fact slightly relieved of the decision. Like, now I could get out of this mission.

However, the actual conclusion went way over what he expected.

The man’s main force was to fight a war of attrition using a very specific curse, but he had no intention of losing easily even in a direct battle. The reason why he didn’t take this course of action until now was because he thought about what would happen if he failed to kill his target, and also because there was the uncertainty caused by high-level Hunters.

However, if they were to be placed nearby, there was a chance that he would be able to take advantage of that chance and kill him. He didn’t even need to use the curse. All he had to do next was to escape, but even if he couldn’t escape, he could still achieve his goal.

Is 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》 an idiot……? He frowned under his hood.

He has observed what he had done so far, but if it wasn’t for the rumor about him being an unparalleled strategist, he would have excluded him from being a potential enemy.

It was the first time he had used the Cursed Keystone Jewel――『Proof of the Immortal Dragons』 so many times in a row.

It is a priceless item, you can even say that it was more valuable than the man himself. It is best not to use it any more than this.

What he needs to think about now, is how to get past the Hunters’ defenses.

Fortunately, 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》 shouldn’t be aware of the man’s true identity. If he did it right, he could slip past their defenses and assassinate the Emperor and even escape before he was noticed.

The only problem was――Kilknight Version Alpha.

He was the only pure close-quarter combatant among the Hunters doing the escort, and he was an unknown being brought in by 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》.

The man remembers most of the names of famous hunters, but he has never heard of Kilknight Version Alpha. Or rather, it is quite possible that his name is an alias, but the problem is that as a warrior, Kilknight is so skilled that he can easily cut down a Chill Dragon.

There is a momentary lag during a Magi’s offensive magic, so a good melee fighter can deliver several blows in that time.

The man was a Magi. In melee combat, he would be one step behind Kilknight.

And even if he were to hit him with a surprise magic spell, there was a good chance that the crimson armor that he never takes off is covered with some kind of protective magic.

Radrick has a Barrier Ring on him. So, it would take two blows to kill him. One blow would still have been fine, but I have to say that giving two blows with Kilknight next to him is next to impossible.

He had to be careful with 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》 because his technique was unknown, but he also had to be careful with Kilknight.

If possible, it would be preferable to do the assassination when the two of them weren’t around, but things wouldn’t be so convenient.

As he was thinking with a difficult face,? he suddenly heard a small sound from the other side of the door. It was the sound of knockings. Before he could answer, the door opened.

The person who appeared was an old Magi with his back standing straight like a pole.

His gray hair was pulled in an all-back hairstyle, and instead of a wand, he wore a magic bracelet on both of his arms.

He was the Magi with the second-highest Hunters Level in the escort, Term Apokris, the 《Still Water (Shisui)》. He has mastered water magic, magic which tends to be seen as plain, to the utmost limit, and is one of the best magic users in the Imperial Capital. It is said that his ability is almost the same level as that of 《Abyssal Fire Destruction (Shin En Kametsu)》.

However, his expression was steeper than usual. He frowned and checked his surroundings once, then whispered to the man.

“Kecha…… It might be sudden but――――《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》 might be… A member of the 『Fox (Kitsune)』.” (Term)

These were words that the man――Kechakchakka Munk had never expected to hear.

He was so shocked that it was as if he had been struck by lightning. He involuntarily opened his eyes and let out a small interrogative voice.

“Keke……?” (Kechakchakka)

“Are you surprised…… Yes, I am aware that I am talking nonsense. However, considering his unusual behavior and circumstances so far, I can only assume so. The man called Kilknight is probably one of 《Infinite Variety’s (Senpen Banka)》 henchmen he had brought with him. I should have noticed it earlier, it was so blatantly suspicious that I didn’t notice it. There is no way a guy who runs into a swarm of Monsters and slashes them while screaming “Kill, kill” is someone decent!” (Term)

Kechakchakka couldn’t say anything in front of Term Apokris who was extremely serious.

This………… Would require a change of plan.

TL notes:
