Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga - Chapter 237

It’s humiliating.

That was the only thing that lingered in Grondzel’s mind.

It was heartbreaking from the fact that an unknown adventurer from nowhere would come out and start to affect everything he had built up until now. Even the reason is absurd. To wield violence even when there is only heart and no physical evidence. There were no savages as such.

But what upsets me more than anything is the reaction and attitude of the people I was trying to hire to deal with such a savage.

The thug who had worked as a business colleague for many years withdrew his advice at the last, and the mercenary corps he tried to hire instead of enduring his anger immediately questioned whether the target was Eldmia Ega or not. I don’t know what kind of crazy things this miscellaneous thing that I had never heard of in the wild was doing, but it seemed to be true that it was very famous among uncivilized things.

In the end, after tricking the cowards into heading to the waterway, Gronzeel, who had packed only the urgently needed items in case of an emergency, was grinding his teeth after hiding the items in his cache. If the mercenaries returned unharmed, they would be dissatisfied with deceiving them… but what about the rest? No matter how mercenary they are, they really don’t live for only one day, so they will crawl on their own.

“Anyway, he’s just an adventurer.”

He was once an adventurer himself, but since he had already dealt with high-ranking officials and nobles in the position of guild leader, he was a Gronzeel who arbitrarily believed that even if their ranks were different, they were very different.

However, there was no one around him who could correct his wrong way of thinking, so he thoroughly believed that he was right and knocked on the door of the aristocratic mansion where he usually lived. As one of the most luxurious mansions in Englem and a place where many private soldiers and mercenaries show off, the aristocrat who met after going through unnecessary procedures that were not out of etiquette greeted him with a smile and a chubby cheek.

“No, my God. What’s wrong with you, Gronzeel, without contacting me?”

damn pig. It’s like pretending to laugh at a subject that you know clearly.

It was Grondzel, who had never paid an unannounced visit unless there was something urgently needed. That course of action was fully learned by those who helped him, and he also well understood that Grondzel, who visited him like this, would always repay him with a large amount.

The aristocrat in front of him now was the same.

“Thank you for your hospitality despite the sudden visit, baron. It’s nothing else than the baron’s help.

”

“Oh, it’s like this when I see Baron Bycks. I guess it’s because he’s so full of aristocratic dignity.”

Even if he throws an obvious compliment, the man called the Baron Bücks only shakes his hand in moderation, smiling broadly and not actively correcting it. It was embarrassing to even call it a pretense, but Grondzel didn’t care. Even though it was a title bought with money to take advantage of the war, it was because Baron Bycks had a lot of money and had as much influence in Englem as the lord, Baron.

Due to his ties to the capital, his power, which had grown rapidly over the past few years, was not at a level that would disappear just because he had been quiet for the past few weeks.

“It’s not polite to leave a guest here. Come in. If you need help, shouldn’t I help you with all my heart?”

The attitude and movement of Baron Bycks, who put his hand on Grondzel’s shoulder in a friendly manner, was not much different from the last one he remembered. He didn’t even seem to have any particular concerns, and his complexion seemed to have improved. Thinking that the rumor that he suddenly lost his life by taking the wrong connection in the capital was just a rumor, Grondzel accepted the favor of Baron Bycks.

“Thank you very much, Baron. It’s nothing else than a lawless thug who is threatening my safety.”

“My God. To threaten you, who always contributes to the development of Englem. What kind of baseless lowly people could do that?”

Even though he was deliberately called a baron, Baron Bücks does not correct it and enjoys the title. Under the expression of acting pretending to be worried about himself, Gronzeel also acted out of embarrassment while trying to hide his inner feelings of being fed up with the desire to show off.

“Eldmia Egara is an adventurer, a brat. This time, when I asked her to wipe out the thieves who had confused our city, she threatened me with all sorts of excuses and fabrications and tried to extort my reward.”

“Huh! The things I didn’t learn. Where the kingdom’s law stands right, you do such a barbaric thing!”

“It’s truly deplorable. I’ve already personally hired mercenaries to take action, but aren’t they also unreliable in the end? After all, as I reflected on the person I could trust and ask for, I naturally came to the baron. .”

In the end, the number of enlisted soldiers that Baron Bücks had was about 20, and the rest were no different from the mercenaries he hired, whether blue owls or owls, but of course, Grondzel didn’t mention that fact.

“Don’t worry! I’ll move my troops right now!”

“Thank you very much, Baron.”

“Hmmmm, according to my prediction, even if he crawls out of the canal, he will fight the mercenary anyway, and even if he defeats him, he will lead his exhausted body to the guild to protest against you. I will send my soldiers to the guild. So you can wait in peace!”

Troops and troop dispatch, he used grandiose words on a topic he had never been to a war in before, and talked about strategy as if he were concocting a strategy. It happened exactly the moment Eldmia left the waterway and encountered the Blue Owl Mercenaries.

And as time passes, it leads to the present.

“What did you just say?”

Eldmia, who came down to the first floor in a state of rage after checking the guild leader’s office, frowned as she looked at the 20 soldiers lined up in the adventurer’s guild hall. When he saw Laika, who had approached him clumsily, sitting at his feet and wagging his tail, he tried to suppress his anger as much as possible and listen to the story, but the words that came out of his mouth were farts.

“I said I would arrest you on charges of damaging guild property, extortion and intimidation, attempted murder, and theft.”

Eldmia blinked at the soldier’s overly confident attitude, then rubbed her eyes and looked again.

But they were still enlisted men. After kneeling down and petting Laika, Eldmia calmly asked back.

“By what authority do you guys who aren’t the city guards or patrols?”

“We are the enlisted troops of Baron Bycks, a reputed aristocrat of Englem! Baron Bycks himself, who could not tolerate this situation as a retainer of the city, drew his sword himself, so please calmly follow the entrainment!”

“…The retainer of the city? A baron? Aren’t you talking about the lord of Englem? You guards?”

Now that they proudly talk about words they cannot understand at all, they are beginning to doubt whether they have any flaws in their ability to understand language.

A gateway city is designated as a barony that follows the royal family to check the power of dukes or counts. There can’t be two barons in a city that isn’t even the capital, so if that bux or something is really a baron, he’s the lord of Englem, and his enlisted men must be officially marked in the army or belong to the guards or patrols.

Or maybe there are two barons? Rather, the private soldier spoke annoyedly, without a moment to feel uncomfortable with the conversation that went against the common sense he had accumulated in another world.

“Haa, he’s the Baron Bycks.”

“What? You said you were a baron?”

“Whether it’s a baronet or a baron, what matters? You…”

“Have you seen such a crazy bastard?”

A curse came out of her throat, but a smile began to form on Eldmia’s lips. The private understood the reaction as an obvious mockery and raised his hand in a moment of rage. Then, let’s go! With a shout, the soldiers swung their spears in accordance with the ceremony.

“The criminal bastard tried to take it quietly…”

Just as she was about to give the adventurer a taste of power to the unfamiliar adventurer, Eldmia opened her mouth.

“Damage and contempt of the authority of the royal family due to impersonation of public officials. The legal penalty is the death penalty.”

“…what?”

“Deception of the royal family and aristocrats due to impersonation of aristocrats, capital punishment. Violation of the Gateway City Act due to an apparent act of exceeding authority as a private soldier. Death penalty. Participation in criminal acts, destruction of evidence, and attempted fabrication. Imprisonment according to the sentence. However, the case is corruption in the city. In case of violation of authority, up to the death penalty is possible. Leaving the place of work where spear possession is permitted as a private soldier. Attempt to impersonate a regular soldier of the state due to it. Death penalty in accordance with military law. All executions are carried out only by law enforcement officers authorized by the royal family. It can be fulfilled, but…”

The soldier’s eyes began to roll like crazy as the number of crimes and death sentences poured out without hesitation.

“… Self-defence against the criminal acts of the offenders according to this is recognized as innocent if it can be proven through witnesses and evidence after the fact.”

By the time I felt something was seriously wrong, it was already too late. On the contrary, Eldmia felt great satisfaction in the fact that the laws she memorized while working for the Ogatorf family, splitting her free time and pouring out even nosebleeds, shined.

“I fucking worked really hard on studying laws that you couldn’t even sell to legally pick heads for bastards like you.”

Eldmia laughed. It was because I was certain that I could find out at once where the guild leader, who I thought had completely gone, and who was behind it.

“Now, who’s the criminal?”

“Go, go…”

“Leica. Ask.”

Shaking her fat ass, Leica charged at me like lightning.
