The Simple Job of Only Perishing to the Hero

Book 9: Chapter 22

The vice city Kashnart had made a complete change from the hustle and bustle of when the

armed tournament had started, and time flowed in a relaxed manner. It was simply because the

participants werent in the town, but people who were making bets on who would end up in

highest position could still be found here and there, and it wasnt like the festive atmosphere had

completely disappeared.

Even the knights on security duty had accepted that atmosphere, and there was no mistake

that they had relaxed to some extent.

Speaking about it even further, the Kashnart Defense Chivalric Order that was doing the town

gates security were more precisely not serving the royal family, but a local Chivalric Order that

was employed in the town of Kashnart.

When compared to the Chivalric Orders that served the royal family, their loyalty to them was

low, and werent all that serious.

There were even people who thought that no matter who this civil war fell to between Narika

and Celis, they didnt care since they had prepared the excuse that we will simply carry out

our duty of defending Kashnart.

Maybe because of that, even when that group came walking towards the towns back gate,

they didnt think of it as anything but an Adventurer party coming in.

The knights on security called out to the blonde woman that stood at the front of the group

with a light tone.

Ou, sorry, Nee-chan! If youre gonna pass through here, youre gonna have to either present

some identification, or put your hands on a Reveal Crystal.

The Kashnart Defense Chivalric Order huh. Looks like theyre following Narika.

Ah?

Well, that cant be helped either. She is a member of the royal family too after all. That choice

was correct on their part.

You?

One of the knights that felt that something was strange tried to get a better look at the

womans face, but at that moment.

A fist in a gauntlet was driven into the knights bare face.

Gufueh!

O, oi!? Y, youGaah!?

The other knight tried to draw his sword while being surprised, but he was punched and

defeated before that could happen.

At the same time, the sound of something falling over with a thud resounded from the

watchtower as well.

What could be heard after the sound of what seemed like someone running down the stairs

was a short angry voice and scream. However, that also immediately concluded and things

became silent.

That was quite easy.

More like, arent they a bit too lax? Ah, that jerk Brutus went and attacked what looks like a

waiting room.

Sending her gaze to Shironos and Olred who came down from the watchtower, Eltrinde

shrugged her shoulders.

I cant deny that butNormally, even if the guards below were to be defeated, the guards

on the upper floors would sense the disorder and ring the alarm bell. Its because the device

that opens this gate is also in the upper floors after all. If not for people like you all who could

move up to the upper floors with just your physical abilities, there is no way they would have

fallen with an attack like this.

Its probably because of thoughts like that that this sort of thing happens.

Vermudol, whose armor made a clanking sound, placed a hand on the gate that was still

closed.

During that time, Olred turned his gaze towards the upper floor once again.

Although this is the back gate, as long as it is a key point for even an instant, the organization

of the security should be more strict. To be placing only the minimum amount of security there,

they must either have great confidence in the gateor if not, they must have highly evaluated

that nothing major would happen even if it was attacked.

Its probably both. The gates of the royal capital Elarc and vice city Kashnart are made

with hard metal. Even if battering rams were used, they arent things that would be broken so

easily.

Hey, could you leave the chatter at that? In the end, what should we do to open this gate?

At the same time as those words of an irritated Ykslaas, the tightly shut gate made a

*gigigi* sound and started to open.
