162 – [Side Story] Student from the East Continent – 21
The ‘girl with the real Alyssa’ was able to be protected by Lilu purchasing it from the girl’s owner.
It is said that although she had a pretty face, she was not very popular because she had a physical disability and her ‘work’ was very clumsy.
So, the owner handed over the girl at a low price.
And, one more thing.
“Do you know anything about that girl’s origin?”
“No, they said that the person who sold that child was wearing a hood and hiding his identity, so they couldn’t find out.”
“I couldn’t tell…? Didn’t you buy it yourself?”
“Ah…That’s it…”
Seeing the owner stuttering, Lilu reached into her pocket and took out another silver coin.
When the owner saw the silver coin, his eyes lit up.
“hahahaha, they are called the Allon Family, who use this area as their territory. We buy the women they gather…”
“Alon family… I mean.”
Alon Family.
It wasn’t the first time Lilu heard that name.
What are you hiding? The attackers who attacked him and Sir earlier were none other than members of the Alon family.
…It went well.
I still had to see their faces at least once.
I can guess who it is, but I also needed to dig into the identity of the person who really sold Alyssa to the brothel.
You can solve two problems at once, so isn’t it really killing two birds with one stone?
When he handed over the silver coin he had taken out, the brothel owner’s mouth was torn below his ear.
Leelu was shocked to see his greedy smile, but she also thought that it was one of the ways for the lower class to survive.
Holding back a sigh, Lilu opened her mouth.
“…I guess I’ll have to see the end.”
After saying that, Lilu disappeared.
The owner of the brothel looked at the place where she disappeared for a long time.
She might have thought she was talking nonsense if someone else heard her, but she actually felt like something was going to happen.
It was like a unique feeling from having seen all kinds of customers while running a brothel here.
Sir, who left her care to Lilu, returned to the dormitory with her girl.
The real Alyssa, who had been rescued, must have relaxed as soon as she arrived in the room, so she collapsed and fell asleep.
Seeing Alyssa sleeping with a very comfortable expression, perhaps because she was relieved, Sir laid her down and covered her with a blanket.
And she sighed deeply.
Her soul and spirit were inherently pure to a rare degree.
However, due to the influence of the curse, she was forcibly pulled out and settled into a body that did not fit her at all.
Her mental wounds could be healed with Cyr’s power, but the shock and damage she received when she was transferred to this body was something that Cyr could not do anything about.
More than anything, this good girl was devastated by the fact that someone with her own name and her own body was causing harm to those around her.
Of course, there was the important task of purifying the Western Continent and raising and planting an ‘alter ego,’ but Sir wanted to help this child.
This child suffered greatly due to someone’s malicious intent.
More than anything, I was angry.
Sir was someone who rarely got angry, but she couldn’t forgive this time.
An evil curse that blasphemes the soul and spirit of people and twists the laws of the world.
This was something that should never be left alone.
The good news is that this curse only allows you to transfer your body once.
If the body can be moved around freely, it will be difficult to catch and the damage will be increased.
“Sir.”
“Lilu, I want to help this child.”
“…I thought you would say that. Please leave it to me.”
As Lilu smiled while saying that, Sir also smiled back.
From long ago, Lilu, who always worked hard for herself, really seemed to always give Sir energy.
As the capital of the Ardian Empire, Almak is a city that boasts excellent public safety.
However, it is only the outer surface of the city, and if you go into the lower and back world, which is beyond the reach of the imperial army, it can be said that security is largely managed by three organizations.
Well, it’s closer to the point that they are the ones who manage public security, but in reality they are the ones who rule.
One of those three organizations is the Allon Family.
Among the three organizations, it was the organization that was particularly large and powerful, and occupied a larger area.
The leader of the organization is Yumis Allon, a magnate in the world behind the empire.
She was also originally from the lower class, and she was a very outstanding person who rose to her current position with just her resourcefulness.
With her numerous subordinates under her command, Miss Allon gained the power to control the back alleys of the system.
But today, she felt like she was having a nightmare.
Her numerous, and her subordinates, who had faithfully run away as her own hands and feet into her cruel hands, were lying on the floor, moaning.
And the person who did it was none other than a woman wearing a hood.
Thanks to making a big profit this time, the intruder came in while she was gathering her subordinates and having a big banquet at her home base.
She was covering her face with a hood, but the lines of her body were enough to tell that she was a woman, so her subordinates, who were embarrassed by the sudden presence of the intruder, immediately laughed.
She didn’t know what business she had come in for, but Miss Yu, who was well aware of the harsh nature of her subordinates, felt even a little bit of sympathy for the intruder.
And then some of her men got up and approached the intruder, and Miss Yu, who was sipping her drink while thinking of the devastation that was about to occur.
But the result is this situation now.
Her subordinates who were making fun of the woman in the hood were thrown against the wall, and all those who rushed at her in rage fell to the woman’s dagger.
The other subordinates who were not hostile or attacked did not dare to attack him, and only trembled in fear along with Yumis.
“You…What on earth are you doing…?!”
Yumis is confused by the absurd situation and asks a question with a trembling voice.
Instead of answering, the other person took out the bow she was carrying on her back.
And then he hung the arrow on the string and suddenly shot it at Yumis.
“Heek?!”
With no time to dodge, the arrow flew past Miss Yu’s ear and lodged in the side of her face.
The sound of the arrow hitting his ears struck his ears, and Miss Yu was so weak that he could not even stand up.
“If you answer the question, I’ll spare your life.”
“I’ll answer you!! Tell me anything!!”
Miss Yu, who heard the sound of the arrow hitting right next to her, could only nod her head frantically.
“…Have you recently received a request to attack a noble lady from another continent?”
“Of…Request…?”
At those words, Miss Yu turned her head and looked at the man who was eating and drinking near her.
As an executive of the Allon family and his own brother, he managed most of the important requests, such as raiding his nobles.
The man who noticed Yumis’ gaze stammered.
“That…That…”
“Uh…Answer quickly! Our lives are at stake!!”
The man nodded his head at Miss Yu’s harsh voice.
“Yes…Yes!! It was clearly a request to show bitterness to the foreign daughter attending Belnoa!!”
With a thud, the arrow flew again, this time hitting the man.
Quaak!!
“Huh oh oh!!”
The arrow that flew accurately grazed the man’s leg, passed between his crotch, and lodged in the wall.
At that sharp touch, the man stiffened with a white face.
“Who is the client?”
“That…That…That…”
A man who hesitates.
With the sound of the bowstring being struck again, an arrow fell into the man’s leg.
A shattering scream echoed throughout the base, making the people around them tremble in fear.
“Next time, I’ll shoot you in the head.”
“The Prime Minister…The Prime Minister’s son!! Chris Maletti!! This is the man’s request!!”
Hearing those words, Lilu remembered the face of a boy with gray hair and glasses.
Indeed, sometimes I felt like I was glaring at Sir, and then I did something like this.
Lilu gritted his teeth.
“You…What on earth did you believe in and try to get your hands on a noble from a foreign country?!”
“I… I also thought it was dangerous to touch a noble from another country… But they said they would somehow cover it up with the power of the Prime Minister…”
“Are you a fool?! If you mess with a noble from a foreign country, you think that the power of the prime minister will somehow work out something?! If you make a mistake, we’ll all get away with it!”
Yumis’ angry voice filled the base.
Overriding the fear she had just felt, Yumis felt anger boiling inside her.
‘That boy must have been planning to blame everything on us!’
The anger of the woman who controlled the world behind the system was concentrated in Chris Maletti.
If you think about it, isn’t it the same as being in this situation because of that bastard’s request!!
Miss Yu shook his head desperately.
The brain of the woman who had risen from the bottom to this point was desperately trying to come up with a plan to overcome her situation.
“Sorry… I’m sorry!!”
But above all, it was an apology.
None of the subordinates lying on the floor are dead, and considering that there are such talented people, it is highly likely that the request itself failed.
In that case, she saw that there was still a possibility of making up for it.
“Well…We caused trouble by receiving the wrong request! I’m really sorry!!”
A sign of apology so polite that one’s back bends 90 degrees.
Since coming to this position, she hasn’t made an apology like this in a long time, but she bowed her head without hesitation.
She knows when to step up and when to back off.
She didn’t get this position for nothing.
“I’d like to ask one more thing.”
“Yes…Yes!! Anything!!”
“There is a girl who was sold to a brothel, and we are looking for the person who sold her.”
At those words, Miss Yu opened her mouth.
There are more than one woman who has been sold to a brothel. How can it be easy to find her?
“Isn’t it too vague to find?”
“She is a girl who can’t use her legs, is blind, and can’t speak.”
“Well…If it has that kind of characteristic, we should be able to reveal it…But there is a possibility that it was sold while hiding its identity…”

At those words, Lilu held her Miss Yu’s shoulder tightly.
As the grip pulling her heavy bow caught her shoulder, Miss Yu felt like she was going to die in pain, but she barely managed to keep her expression.
“Come back in a few days. Until then, let’s find out.”
“Ah… I understand!!”
Miss Yu nods her head frantically, enduring the pain.
As the hooded figure turned her body and disappeared, Miss Yu lost strength again and sat down on the spot.
It is dangerous.
Miss Yu felt that this might be the biggest crisis for the Allon family.
“Did you hear that? Be sure to find it!! Mobilize all of our personnel!!”
