Let’s think of a plan to capture Kabino
PAGE 2
We set off for the Adventurer’s Guild.
Serulis, Luchila and Milka were with me. Also Grulf and Gerberga.
Gerberga was riding on Grulf’s back.
“Cluck.”
“Grr.”
It sounded like Gerberga was clucking out orders while riding him.
Apparently, Grulf considered Gerberga above him in rank.
We arrived at the Adventurer’s Guild after walking for some time and quickly went inside.
There was a simple hall inside of the guild for eating.
Shia was sitting in that hall and drinking tea and eating pastries.
Ario and Josh were also sitting with her. It seemed like they were having a lively conversation.
Shia’s tail wagged vigorously as soon as she caught sight of me.
“Oh? What is it, Mister Locke? I didn’t think you would come to the guild today.”
“Mister Locke, you moved houses? Congratulations.”
“Congratulations on the new house.”
Shia looked a little surprised.
Ario, the F Rank Sorcerer, laughed happily.
Josh, the F Rank Archer and Scout, lowered his head politely.
I had once hunted goblins with Ario and Josh.
“Ah, thank you. I know it’s rather sudden, but are you busy?”
“Oh, we aren’t on any quest right now, anyway. We were going to take the day off.”
“If you need more people, we would be glad to help.”
“I am also quite unoccupied!”
Luckily, Ario, Josh and even Shia had not accepted any quests.
And so I told them.
“That’s good. I do have a request to make…”
“Do-do you need help moving?”
“That’s not it. It’s a bit of a dangerous mission. You can refuse if you want.”
“Hm. I accept.”
“Leave it to us.
“I too will accept it.”
Ario, Josh, and Shia accepted it.
“Don’t you want to hear the details first?”
“It is fine. I won’t reject a request from you, Locke.”
“Exactly.”
“I too will accept any request from you, Mister Locke!”
“You really shouldn’t say such things so lightly.”
After that, I introduced to them, my companions.
Serulis, Luchila, Milka, and Grulf and Gerberga as well.
Of course, Gereberga was only introduced as a cute chicken.
It was better to keep that part a secret for now.
And then I talked about our plans to defeat Kabino.
I wanted Ario, Josh, and Shia to block the back exits.
This was so they could arrest any who tried to escape.
“To be blunt, it will be dangerous. You can refuse if you want.”
“That’s not a problem. Leave it to us.”
“I can hardly wait.”
“To think that such bad people are in the capital. I will not forgive them!”
Serulis and I would be part of the group charging in from the front.
“The problem is Lord Gerberga…”
“Cluck.”
“Luchila, Lord Gerberga, and Grulf should stay outside of the front entrance after we have gone in.”
“Understood.”
“Grr!”
Grulf seemed very excited about it.
Grulf was strong. However, as he was still young, I did not want him to fight alone.
It would be better for him to stick with Luchila.
After that, we ran over to Kabino’s house.
This was so we would arrive at the time that was discussed with the district manager.
We arrived early and so I had Shia, Ario, and Josh take up their positions.
Shortly after, it was time for the plan to begin, and the district manager and his subordinates all took their positions.
The district manager had brought half of his subordinates, which was ten men.
He was not able to bring them all, as that would impact their other daily duties.
“I will go with Serulis and Milka. Luchila, you and the others stay here.”
“I’m trembling with excitement.”
Milka looked nervous. She was shaking and perhaps a little afraid.
On the surface, I would appear to be Milka’s guardian and ask them to leave her alone.
I had decided that taking her would make it easier to talk and appear more proper.
However, if she was this afraid, it might be better that she didn’t come.
It would make things harder to explain, but it wasn’t anything I couldn’t manage.
“Milka. Would you rather stay here with Luchila?”
“No, I am going too! It’s my problem as well.”
“I see. But don’t worry. I will protect you.”
“Ah, oh. Thank you.”
Then I turned to Luchila and said,
“Take anyone who tries to escape.”
“Leave it to us. And you be careful, Mister Locke.”
“Grooff-grrooff.”
“Cluck.”
Everyone seemed roused for what was to come. Especially Grulf.
He probably wanted to make up for his failure to wake up the other day when there was a suspicious noise.
“Grulf. Don’t do anything dangerous.”
“Grrr.”
“And listen to Luchila.”
“Grr.”
I patted him on the head. Grulf’s tail wagged happily.
After that, we walked up to the door of Kabino’s house in order to ring the bell.
Just as I was about to ring it, I heard a small scream.
“Ahhhhhh! Help me!”
“Don’t think you can escape!”
“Please! Forgive me!”
The screaming and shouting were coming from within the building.
It seemed like Kabino’s house was mostly soundproof.
I had come very close to the door and could only barely hear the screaming.
“It sounds like an emergency. Milka, you must wait here with Luchila.”
“Yes. Understood!”
Once I saw that Milka had returned to Luchila, I tore the door down with my sword.
Of course, it was the Devil King Sword. The door came apart like butter.
I kicked down the remains and charged into the building.
