Chapter 664: Albert Comes Down

Just when I thought the Corrupt Lord will make his move, he stopped, And I can also see what happens. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novelenglish.net . Fɪre

“Spot, move toward the building with blue roof. We’ll see things clearly there. Don’t fly lower than the roof or someone will notice you,” I said to Spot.

Spot then moved toward where I pointed at. And since I said it with my mouth instead of pointing at it while I’m on top of his head, he understands. That was my fault. I was stupid to point to where we should go from Spot’s back without him seeing. I think I did that many times.

When we reach there, we can see that Wendy and the others are facing their most difficult opponent. Civilians.

No, they are not fighting them. Wendy and the others just protecting themselves from the civilians who cast beginner level magic at them.

“This.. what happened here?” Albert asked.

“From what I can see, the civilians started attacking Wendy and the others as soon as Wendy defeated the ice mage over there. He’s unconscious now. My guess is that he is the hero of this city. And seeing that he got defeated, the civilians think that Wendy and the others are enemies,” I said.

.....

“I see. So that will make the conquest of this city becomes harder,” Albert said.

“Conquest? You said it as if it’s a city to conquer. This is already your territory, so it’s more like... defending? Or is it recovering this city back to its real owner? Man, it’s difficult,” I said.

Hmm... what to do? Wendy has trouble because whatever she’s trying to explain to the people is ignored. No one believed her. That’s why they become an obstacle. No wonder Corrupt Lord didn’t make his move.

And Wendy and the others can’t forcefully break through the civilians. They are agents who are loyal to the kingdom. There’s no way they could attack civilians.

...Maybe we need a group of special agents who doesn’t care about the lives of the civilians. That will take care a lot of things. But that means we’re no different from the cult. I guess we shouldn’t do that.

Well, but I won’t know if Albert or the other kings actually had made a group like that. If that’s the case, the only thing I can do is to trust them.

But now, what to do?

Before I think of what should we do, Albert summoned Sonia in front of us. She’s invisible that even Albert couldn’t see her. But I can.

“Roy, is Sonia here?” Albert asked me.

“She is.”

“Sonia. While being invisible, go and tell Wendy and the others down there to move to the lord’s mansion. Get the man they defeated with them so the citizens will follow them. And we can then show the truth to the people when the lord makes his appearance,” Albert said.

“Understood,” Sonia said. And then she disappears to only appears again down there next to Wendy who is protecting herself from the rocks the people thrown at them. They are weak in magic, so they have quickly exhaust their mana. They are unable to use magic anymore. But that doesn’t mean they are willing to stop when their hero is defeated.

Still, what did that hero do to make the people admire him so much? I hope it’s not something that will cause us trouble.

Hearing the plan from Sonia, Wendy looked up for a bit and then proceed to do the plan. Burnes grabbed the fainted hero and carried him.

The group then carefully make their way while making sure that they won’t hurt ordinary people. But on the way, other people noticed them and started throwing stones at them. And now there are a lot of angry mobs.

But I have one question. Why do they keep stones in their house? So they can throw it whenever they want?

I saw an old lady opened a cabinet full of stones right next to the window and throw them one by one at Wendy’s group. And she’s not the only one. Other people who sees the event from the window of their house also do the same.

It’s like they’re prepared to throw stones. What the hell is with the people in this city?

Anyway, those people are too weak to cause trouble to Wendy and the others. Wendy ignores them as she fight other enemies on the way to the lord’s mansion.

Probably because he sensed it, Corrupt Lord finally make his move. He gets all the strong slaves and his subordinates to prepare to fight Wendy and the others.

Finally Wendy and the others arrive at the lord’s mansion with the angry mob behind them. They will be facing the lord’s subordinates while the Corrupt Lord himself is watching.

“What are you doing in my city?” the lord asked Wendy and the others casually.

Meanwhile, Spot, Albert, Sonia, and I are all watching from above. I also looked inside the mansion. There are still many slaves inside. Most of them are female slaves. I guess they are non-combatants.

...Except for one extremely suspicious woman. She had the slave collar, but unlike other slaves she had a Magic Restricting Collar put on her neck as well. Which should mean that she might be quite strong. But the lord only wanted her to stay with him.

She’s suspicious. Instead of cowering in fear, she’s looking down there from the window as if it’s not important to her. As if whether the lord is dead or not doesn’t matter to her.

I need to watch her. Since she has the Magic Restraining Collar, she might be quite strong. Let’s use Aura to cover our presence as well.

Anyway, down there, the lord is making his speech while his subordinates and his slaves are getting defeated one after another. He made it as if Wendy and the others are criminals. And he even related them to the cult. Which makes the mob angrier.

And when all of his men is defeated, he will finally fight.

“For the sake of the people, I will fight!”

That’s what he shamelessly proclaimed. As he started to cast his magic, a man suddenly stand in front of him. He’s landing there from above.

“Wait, that’s Albert! Why is he jumping down?”

The king who was supposed to be next to me is gone. And he jumped down from Spot’s head to right in front of the Corrupt Lord.

And I only realize it now that he’s a wind mage when he used wind magic to slow his descend and landed safely. I guess I never asked. And it’s also not his job to fight anyway.

“I see that you’re breaking the law, Randy. Any excuses?” Albert asked.

“”Your Majesty!””

As soon as Albert landed, Wendy, Burnes, and the other agents kneeled down on the spot.

The Corrupt Lord himself is confused. But as soon as he saw the agents’ reaction, he knows that the king is really here.

“Your Majesty!”

The Corrupt King also kneeled down. And seeing him kneeling down, the mobs also do the same. They must have never thought that their king would be here.

That’s a funny reaction. But now, let’s see the suspicious woman.

She’s watching Albert from the window as she smiled as if she has found her prey.

She might be dangerous.

Down there, the lord has finally panicked. Because the king is here. And he’s making his speech about the slavery in this city.

It’s actually pretty amazing how he hid slavery in this city from the citizens. Though after Albert explained it. Some people who lost their loved ones finally realized that they lost them because the lord enslaved them and sold them somewhere else. But the people only heard about the death of their loved one from the lord’s subordinate.

Oh, the lord is about to attack the king. That’s a bad idea.

Lightning magic is supposed to be the fastest magic. But there’s someone faster. Albert.

He expected Corrupt Lord to fight back so Albert has already grabbed a gun from his pocket. A small gun that can easily be concealed.

And when Corrupt Lord was about to make his move, Albert quickly aimed his gun at him and pull the trigger. The bullet is strong enough to penetrate Corrupt Lord’s hand.

...Did he spend his spare time to practice his shooting skill? Maybe that’s the case. And he became an expert in quickdraw. It’s a good idea to let Marie made the gun for his safety. Now, even if his magic is weak, Albert should be able to protect himself a bit.

The lord is down now and Wendy quickly apprehend him. I guess the show is over here. I don’t think this is a good time for the circus.

...I lied! Every day is a good time for the circus!

Oh, the suspicious woman is there as well. She didn’t do anything. She’s just watching the mobs turning their anger to the lord and his subordinates. But Albert stopped them saying that some of them are victims as well. People who have been enslaved and forced to protect the lord.

Even now, I can see their collar is stabbing their neck because they haven’t moved to protect the lord yet. So Albert stopped the mob and this way, the lord no longer needs protection.

So, is this over? Not yet. The suspicious woman is still suspicious. Let’s watch her a little longer before coming down there.
