Became the Escort Knight That the Princesses Were Obsessed With chapter 150

150. Deep Night (6)

Anyway, the chieftain was not satisfied even after Hummels died.

If we don’t find his son, everyone will die.

‘Leah and I will be chased down soon.’

It would be better to find him like this.

There are three suspects excluding me.

A man with a mustache, a large man, and a man with a tattoo on his neck are all knights.

“Isn’t that Leon’s knight…?” ?”

The three Bakal knights asked me.

Then, I sighed with a gloomy expression on my face.

“Actually, my hometown is Bakal. So I had no choice but to board the dragon.”

I glanced up at Tina.

And then, he blinked one eye.

“I was just trying to hide, but when our knights mentioned it, I had no choice but to be dragged out….”

The men stared at my tear-filled eyes.

Then, without realizing it, they showed pitiful expressions.

“It must be unfair on that side too….”

The man with the mustache looked particularly sad.

“What… , whatever the circumstances, it means that one of us is Hummels’ son….”

The large man was quick to grasp reality.

“Not me, this is my first time seeing an elder.”

The man with the snake tattoo on his neck was especially denying himself.

“Me neither.”

The same goes for men with mustaches.

Everyone insisted that he was not Hummels’ son.

‘They say there is one of them being a traitor….’

“Even if there is one among us, would you bother to reveal his identity?”

“You have to reveal it, or you will kill not only yourself but everyone else.”

The large man frowned and said.

Then, I answered silently.

“If you come out, everyone can survive.”

After I finished speaking, all four people became quiet.

“….”

A suffocating silence.

We, who were framed as suspects, looked at each other in silence in the middle of the yard.

“Actually, we don’t have Hummels’ son among us?”

To get a clue, I quietly asked a question.

“But, you said there were definitely Elder Wolves.”

“That’s right, Hummels also shouted it before he died.”

The three knights refuted one after another.

“That could have been a lie that the elders told to kill us all together.”

I spoke to them seriously.

“It seems plausible.”

Then, one by one, they started nodding their heads.

“In the first place, would an elder who likes to boast bother hiding the existence of his son?”

“Well, so the princess could have known about the existence of the black crystal.”

So it was concluded that there was no son of Hummels among us.

“But what if it really doesn’t exist?”

I slowly opened the gun.

Then, the men who took the bait agreed.

“I can’t help it. “I have no choice but to go to the Elder Wolf and tell him that the Elder’s son is missing.”

Thanks to their words, I stood up from my seat.

And, he confidently proposed.

“Then, let me at least have a conversation.”

The men looked at me with suspicion as I personally came forward.

However, as if he didn’t have the courage to go out instead, he soon pursed his lips.

“I am from Goa, so I am quite familiar with the wild. “If it’s okay, I’ll take a look.”

“Well, you cleared the way for the squirrels to come during the day.”

The man with the mustache nodded at her.

“But you’re from Goa? “It looks like I have a booty.”

The large man looked at me suspiciously.

Then, I showed him the wound on my forehead and the knife marks on my forearm.

“Even though it was like this, it was quite a struggle.”

“Ah….”

Only then did they understand.

“Then, do me a favor….”

The three knights looked solemnly as they approached the elder wolf.

But….

“… !!”

Werewolves sticking out their front claws and trying to hit me.

I was startled and took a step back.

「Son of Hummels, there is no use holding on if you don’t come out.」

The chief warned in a firm voice.

「I know for sure that you are here…. “Give up any thoughts of running away.”

The wolf extended its claws and made the number 2 with its fingers.

「There are only two fates for you.」

A powerful purple air current surged from his two claws.

「If Hummels’ son comes out, he will die. “If he doesn’t come out, everyone will die.”

I returned to the knights, clutching my shocked chest.

Then, the men looked up at me worriedly.

“Are you okay…?” ?”

I answered with a deep sigh.

“It doesn’t work as expected…” . Now that things have come to this, I really need your son to come out….”

The knights became dumb again.

“I can’t help it.”

The large man, who was no bigger than me, opened his mouth.

He said, raising his finger.

“There is only one way.”

We all looked at him.

Then the man in the T-shirt spoke with his dark eyes flashing.

“If Hummels’ son is not there…. “I have no choice but to pass him over by creating a son who does not exist.”

I asked in a meaningful voice.

“That means…. Are you trying to make an innocent person a victim? ?”

“There’s nothing we can do. Instead, I’ll tell the princess and get you at least a hero title.”

The trustworthy man spoke calmly.

“Then the three of us will live comfortably.”

“Ha, this is ridiculous. Are you really the culprit? “By doing this, I will increase my chances of survival.”

I frowned and asked.

“You really don’t know?”

The large man spoke firmly.

“It doesn’t matter who Hummels’ son is, what matters is that he will never come out!”

As her voice got louder, Tina looked at me worriedly.

Then, I tried to reassure her by raising the corners of her mouth.

“In the end, whether it’s my son or not, someone has no choice but to die.”

He directly organized the situation.

“Then now we have to decide on a victim to satisfy those wolves.”

The three Bakal knights looked at the old man’s body lying on the floor.

Cleanly cut cross section.

Black blood flowed from there.

“I can’t do it…” !!”

“Shall we at least leave the voting to the entire convoy?”

The men were whispering as they looked at Hummels, who had died coldly.

“Are you sure? “If you forcefully push someone, you will be caught right away.”

I told them firmly.

“Someone who voluntarily acts must appear.”

Planning to somehow sacrifice one person.

“This makes no sense…” .”

“I just can’t…” .”

Everyone was scared.

They were clutching their heads and falling into despair.

“….”

After understanding their condition, I didn’t say anything for a moment.

Then, he silently stood up and said.

“Then, I will do it.”

I am willing to step forward.

The idea of claiming to be a victim.

With those words, the knights’ attention focused on me.

“I was born an orphan anyway.”

I raised my fox-thin eyes at them.

And, he spoke confidently.

“So, I’m going to save everyone and get the title of hero.”

“….”

The knights kept their mouths shut.

It seemed like he had no intention of stopping me any further.

“Veil….”

However, Tina was different.

He looked anxiously from afar at me, who had voluntarily committed death because of him.

“….”

The same goes for Leah.

She is leisurely alone, leaning against a tree with her arms crossed….

Her eyes were trembling subtly for some reason.

“Thank you so much….”

“I will make sure to publicize your merits to the world… !”

The drivers expressed their gratitude to me with hopeful eyes.

However, before that, I added a condition.

“However, there is one condition.”

When I gave a serious look, the knights swallowed deeply.

“What is it…?” ?”

“It’s no big deal. All you have to do is answer simple questions ‘honestly.’

The men looked reluctant.

Then he nodded.

“Okay, ask me anything…” .”

“I will also respond faithfully.”

“….”

Because there was no solution right away.

“Okay, then let me ask.”

I crossed my arms alone.

“There really is no son of an elder among you, right? Even if I confess that it is real, I will make the sacrifice.”

And he asked the knights firmly.

“So, if it is his son, speak with confidence. “Is it really not there?”

“….”

The men glanced at each other.

Then, he slowly opened his mouth.

“Not me.”

“Me too.”

“Like I said, it was my first time seeing the elder’s face.”

I took in the faces of the knights one after another.

After that, he raised the corners of his mouth.

“Okay, it looks like it really isn’t there.”

I got up from my seat.

After that, I calmly headed towards the Elder Wolf.

“Elder Wolf… !!”

The wolves all focused on my loud cry.

“The son of Hummels is me!”

The son of the damned black elder finally appears.

The wolves’ red eyes flashed at his appearance.

「You finally arrived. “A piece of trash that doesn’t even bat an eye when his father dies.”

The old wolf got up from his chair.

Then, he ordered his subordinates to drag me in front of him.

“Wow… !”

I was thrown in front of a werewolf.

And then, I broke into a cold sweat due to his overwhelming force.

‘Indeed…. ‘That’s huge.’

A 100-year-old werewolf.

Very powerful mana flowed from his body.

‘If I were to be rude, I would have to use the Grand Auror to fight?’

「But you still have a conscience, seeing as you have no intention of killing all 30 people.」

“What are you going to do with me?”

When I looked at him and asked him silently, the chief answered coldly.

「Of course I will kill you.」

「I will cut you open alive and take out your heart. Afterwards, I will squeeze it and make you eat it again.”

Tina covered her lips with her palm at the chief’s cruel words.

Her blue eyes twinkled like sapphires.

“Because of me….”

However, I, the person involved, did not react in any way.

I just answered leisurely to the werewolves who were going through a lot of trouble.

“You must be going through a lot of trouble because of me.”

「Is the guy who sold his father out of fear of death now worrying about us?」

The elder wolf’s sharp teeth growl.

However, his teeth soon stopped standing out.

“Great Chief, there is a much easier way.”

Because I, who was about to die, made an unexpected suggestion.

“Killing me will not bring back my son who passed away. Moreover, my father, the culprit behind all of this, is dead, so it’s just an act of anger.”

I shrugged.

And then, he looked at the Elder Wolf with worried eyes and said.

“Furthermore, if you kill me and spare all the witnesses, my family will send a punitive force.”

I spun around with the Elder Wolf in front of me.

And he pointed to the knights of Bakal and said.

“At that time, elite soldiers much stronger than these will attack. Then you will lose not only your son but also your precious subordinates.”

「You…. “How dare you threaten our clan?”

The legendary monsters frowned.

They looked like they wanted to tear me to pieces right now.

“I’m saying this because I’m worried about you. “As you can see from my father’s personality, my family members are vicious.”

I made a venomous expression like a dead Hummels.

At this point, my thin eyes help.

“So, please let me live and return the black crystal containing my son’s soul.”

「Are you saying you know the location of the crystal that contains your son’s soul?… ?」

The old wolf was tempted to hear that he could regain his son’s soul.

“Yes, it is in Bakal. “If you let me live, I will return not only the black crystal but also the corpse I am storing.”

From black crystals to corpses.

Although it will be difficult to save my son, the funeral is a condition that can be held.

“Wouldn’t all of this be resolved only if I return alive?”

I smiled broadly and said to the old wolf.

「….」

The knights looked blankly at me telling lies.

“Who on earth is that person? Who is so bold… !”

“Will you just send me back alive with the body…?” ?”

The men swallowed deeply and looked at me.

However, there is one thing they overlooked.

The reason the werewolf was enraged at Hummels was because of his son’s corpse.

They believe that only by holding a funeral for the dead can they meet again in the next life.

So, for now, the corpse is a big advantage.

「….」

As expected, the Elder Wolf covered his forehead.

And then, I was worried for a moment.

「Chief, this is a ridiculous proposal… !」

「That’s right, we’d rather kill that guy and go to Bakal ourselves to collect the body… !」

Elder Wolf shook his head in response to his subordinates’ painful persuasion.

「No, if we lose you too….」

I added a word for him who was worried.

“I will break the Black Crystal to pay for the mistakes of my poor father. And, it completely removes the blood that has accumulated inside.”

「….」

Elder Wolf took a deep breath.

Then, he glanced at me and asked.

「Okay, let’s say we release you. Then….」

The wolf stretched out its huge hand and pointed at Princess Tina and the guards.

「What will those who witness your mistake do?」

A red brilliance like the sun burns in the eyes of the old wolf.

As if trying to penetrate my true feelings.

“Yes, of course…” .”

As if responding to this, I opened my eyes like a fox.

Afterwards, he answered with a smile.

“We must kill them all.”

――――――.

The guards were shocked by my cold words.

Even Leah, who had been calm until now, parted her lips.

“Let’s say everyone continues to live like this. Then, rather than picking up your son’s body, I will be arrested right away.”

I looked at Princess Tina with a cold expression.

“Even if they allow the collection, I will be executed after that. “If that’s the case, then there’s no point in going through all the hardships and going back.”

Both hands joined together.

And then, he said to the wolf with a cunning smile.

“So, if I stop everyone, wouldn’t I be able to live and hold my son’s funeral…? ?”

「… 」

Elder Wolf did not respond to my unconventional suggestion for a moment.

The same goes for the werewolves who said they had to kill me.

Only then did they understand that I did not come forward until my father died.

“Chief, if I don’t keep my promise, you can come to the castle and reveal the truth. “There is absolutely nothing to lose.”

「I see….」

The wolves nodded.

In fact, their original purpose was to kill the princess of Bakal and take revenge on the emperor.

So, even if we kill everyone here, including Tina, there is no difference from the original plan.

「Okay, now I can finally feel the sincerity….」

「If you are really going to keep your promise, you have to endure such evil deeds.」

Elder Wolf looked at the princess and the elders.

And then, he raised his sharp teeth and spoke.

「If you had suggested releasing the hostages, I would have judged it to be a ploy to keep everyone alive and killed them right away.」

“Even when her father died, she didn’t even blink her eyes.”

I stood next to the Elder Wolf.

And then, he raised his black eyes like a wolf.

“That piece of trash…” !!”

“How can you be born as a human and join the side of a monster?!”

「I’m sorry, princess.」

The Elder Wolf raised one of his hands.

And, he ordered his subordinates.

「My son’s corpse is more important than sending you back alive.」

Kill everyone here except me.

Werewolves surrounded the hostages.

And then, each of them slowly approached with golden aura wrapped around their claws.

With the intention of killing everyone.

“Veil, Veil….”

Tina’s blue eyes twinkled.

“Princess, hide with us… !”

The disarmed knights hurriedly flocked to Tina’s side.

They tried to face the werewolves with fearful eyes.

However, there is only one person.

There was a man who did not protect the princess and glared at me alone.

That mustache from earlier.

“Wait, wait…” !!”

He stood up as if he had made up his mind.

“You are being deceived now… !!”

And then, he urgently shouted to the wolves.

“He is definitely not the elder’s son, it’s all a lie!!”

「No? “What on earth does that mean?”

The Elder Wolf asked with flashing red eyes.

“In the first place, that person is not even from Bacal, he is definitely the first person I met in Leon!”

His mustache ran to the Elder Wolf, panting for his breath.

“As I said, I am from Bakkal. “My father, Hummels, just sent me to Leon to study abroad.”

I told the chief not to be fooled.

“No, absolutely not!!”

「Why do you say absolutely no? “What is the reason?”

Elder Wolf asked coldly.

Then, the knight facing the chief placed his hand on his chest.

“That’s right… ! “Because I am Hummels’ real son!!”

All the werewolves paused at the man’s surprise remark.

All the humans also looked at him at once.

‘I finally found it.’

I was among them.
