46. Narrow eyes (not open) VS Glasses (taken off).
A heavy silence lingered in the study.
The place was occupied by a righteous citizen and a black man secretly committing evil.
Seichiro Kenju lifted up his transparent glasses and smiled benevolently, as if his thoughts had finally been put together by the sudden situation.
“Looks like something went wrong.”
A calm voice for someone who has just been framed.
Seichiro spoke calmly without even a hint of negative emotion.
“First of all, I don’t have the courage to study the forbidden magic.”
“Oh, I see.”
“Inherently, he has a personality that hates risks and has already secured a high position in the family, so why risk it?”
“Hmm.”
“Studying forbidden arts for short-term interest? The balance is not right. I am not foolish enough to ruin my life with a moment of curiosity.”
However, like a criminal on the verge of being arrested, he spits out his altercations.
Strictly, he acts as if he is not himself, his voice, facial expression, and hand gestures.
Well, there are bound to be people who have been falsely accused.
“hahahaha, no matter what you say, I will arrest you.”
What do I know? This guy is a villain.
It is indeed a good thing to know the future.
Because no matter how well this guy plays and hides the evidence, you can be sure.
As soon as he seemed to arrest himself no matter what he said, Seiichiro wrinkled his brow.
“I don’t know what you mean, but I am a member of the Kenju family. If you come out recklessly like this, I won’t stand still. White Yacha, aren’t you afraid of Kenju’s prestige!”
Self-denial is followed by intimidation.
However, as a just and unyielding citizen, I confidently answered.
“Aren’t you afraid?!”
“If you come out like this, it will be difficult not only for us but also for Shihei. They won’t like this situation either. Are you thinking of abandoning the gracious Shihei who accepted you!”
“hahahaha, have you already received permission?”
“…… What?”
Seichiro put on a shocked expression, like someone who had been persecuted unexpectedly.
“Shihei together with this outrageous act? Why? I have never performed forbidden magic in front of others, nor have I ever committed a massacre. Therefore, there is no way that such evidence exists in this world.”
Ah, am I admitting my sins now? Kenju Seiichiro, who had been muttering something suddenly out of his mind, suddenly raised his head and glared at me.
“Why are you suspicious of me? Why are you so intimidating me when I had no contact! There would be no evidence for that suspicion!”
That’s a very strange question.
I know he’s a criminal, so I’m trying to arrest him, but he’s talking about evidence.
Is that evidence really that important?
‘…… Hmm, it seems to be important.’
My memory of knowing the future is the proof! It was ambiguous to say
-, And it was pitiful to line up the evidence of the crime word by word.
So I decided to give you a clear answer.
The reason Seiichiro’s crimes are revealed early is simple.
Because the more you put it off, the more work you have to do.
I briefly talked about the situation.
“Because that’s annoying.”
“…… What?”
“I thought it would be convenient to arrest you for now, so I am thinking of doing that now. What, any complaints?”
At my proud remark, Seiichiro put on a dazed expression for a moment, but soon became expressionless.
He wanted to sweep his face, then suddenly took off the glasses that were placed on the bridge of his nose.
The sharper eyes than I thought were looking straight at me.
“Really.”
Episode 3, Forbidden Sorcerer Kenju Seiichiro seemed to have decided to reveal his true colors.
“It seems that today I was bitten by someone far beyond common sense.”
Even while he was saying that, he alternately observed the sharp iron sword in the water and the smiling face, and immediately began to move his steps.
“I’m so sorry.”
Between the sword-wielding me and bare-handed Seiichiro was a large round table.
As he started to move away from me, I also got up and closed the distance.
Perhaps life and death are divided, but neither of them moves in a hurry.
As a result, they turned round and round at the round table, getting closer and further away from each other every moment.
Kenju Seiichiro took off his glasses and said, glaring at me with sharp eyes.
“I said I wasn’t afraid of the power of the Great Kenju. White Yacha, I have heard of your reputation. The ability to cut a white whale, a monster in mythology, in an instant. At such a young age, it is possible to have an arrogant heart.”
“Ha ha, thank you.”
“The ability to slaughter monsters is probably the best in the Kanto region. But can you dare to cut even a human?”
Seiichiro, who was spinning around the round table between me and him, suddenly pulled out a switch from under the round table.
“As a high-ranking member of the Kenju family, I have the authority to mobilize all members of the family in an emergency. If you press this self-defense device, everyone will come running right away.”
“This is an item I really want!”
“The distance from my study to the main building where the warriors of the Kenju family are located is around 150m. Hundreds of people will gather within 10 seconds at the shortest, and within a minute at the longest. Can you kill me and escape safely in that short amount of time? Or would you kill Kenju’s people and get out of the way? Now, which way, answer me, White Yacha.”
“Hmm, either killing you in time or escaping through people, honestly, I think either way is possible.”
Anyway, I am a kind person after all.
Because of being so kind, if the other person misunderstands something, I have a desire to correct it.
I pointed at the switch with a kind smile.
“I’m telling you in advance, even if you press that switch, no one comes?”
“…… What does that mean? Are you saying you killed everyone before entering this study?”
“Ah, what a terrible imagination! I just persuaded everyone with sincere heart-to-heart talk!”
“…… Impossible. You don’t have any evidence, how did you convince my relatives and subordinates?”
“Oh, did I say there is no proof? Hmm, I don’t think I ever said that.”
“…… Do you have proof?”
Kenju Seiichiro frowned. Seriously, I couldn’t understand the current situation.
“What kind of evidence is there? How can you say that you have evidence that even I can’t understand!”
Well, originally, the development of the game is that you don’t get any proof, you just trust them as colleagues, and then you get hit in the back of the head one-sidedly.
I’ve been through that dozens of times already, but the back of my head was sore to go through it in real life.
Therefore, it seems that the evidence was obtained by force.
I clenched my fists and shouted confidently.
“I secretly broke into your study and obtained forbidden books and strange ledger documents!”
“…… My study is endowed with the magic of vigilance, so how did you break in?”
“hahahaha, no one, including you, just sneaked it out without anyone noticing! Oh, are you curious about the trick?”
“…… It’s also impossible. You don’t need to know any tricks. Yes, I have a collection of forbidden books. However, the meaning of the intestine to the end. Books and documents are also things that should be kept as a person in charge of family matters. What’s wrong with that?”
Hmm, are you planning to stay away from it until the end?
In that case, it’s proof that you can’t take it out or beat it, you should have provoked it.
I replied with a grin.
“Not only in the library, but also ‘things’ made in your secret ‘workshop’.”
“…… What?”
“If I bring something like that to you, won’t your father believe me enough?”
“… ….”
‘Workshop’ and ‘thing’.
The moment he heard those two words, Seiichiro Kenju’s eyes changed.
If in the past they had persuasion and the will to compromise in their eyes, it was different now.
“…… Do you know the location of my studio?”
There were still human words coming out of his mouth as he chewed me to death, but only the murderous intent to kill me poured out of his burning eyes.
It was the reaction I was hoping for.
I smiled contentedly and shook my head.
“hahahaha, other than me, don’t you know about workshops yet?”
“…… That is really good news to hear.”
Did you just feel it?
Seiichiro Kenju put the call switch in his hand on his round table.
He looked out of the corner of his study.
“Really, everyone outside did not come to rescue me, but was surrounded.”
Not only that, but it seemed that he noticed the popularity outside the study belatedly.
Three hundred warriors crowded together.
The people of the Kenju family surrounded the library on all sides and sealed it off.
In addition, I told them not to come inside so that no one would get caught up in it.
“You’re the only one.”
Suddenly, Seiichiro suddenly faced me with an expressionless face.
“So don’t hate me too much.”
As Seiichiro Kenju clenched his fists, a large-scale ritual appeared in front of the study.
It’s futile!
