Chapter 37 - Elite Troops

Editor: imsara
Schneider escaped to his mansion in the royal capital. After a struggle between Tiarietta and the black man who calls himself a hero, both of them disappeared from the laboratory. Then, he ran out as soon as Polkos released his restraints. From there, he started going crazy.
Schneider jumped into his room without responding to the maids.
“Damn it! Damn damn damn damn!!”
He smashed the expensive furnishings in the room which caused the whole room to quickly become messy. Still, the anger inside of him did not subside. The humiliation and shame he received in the last three days has not been experienced by him previously and was never been expected at all.
His right shoulder is buzzing. Tomorrow morning the mysterious bond will be released. There is no guarantee that he will keep his promise, but for Schneider, this matter was not…trivial.
“Tomorrow…”
He crouched on the floor and trembled with a huff. He applied for a duel and withdrew it on that day. That fact spread throughout the school. He was confident that the words of the little manager of the laboratory can be dismissed since it has little power. However, the party who is involved, Hart Zenphis, is awful.
He is the son of a remote county lord who was admitted at the recommendation of the King. Almost equal in family background with him.
Even if he could just barely bring it up in an argument about what he said or didn’t say, he was the one who was at a disadvantage at the widespread fact that he was injured two days ago.
Being dismissed by the freshmen as well as bearing the disgrace of withdrawing the duel.
“He can’t be forgiven… He can’t be forgiven…”
Sooner or later, he would overthrow the monarchy and exterminate the queen and establish a new dynasty. He will do it during his father’s generation and he will be the next king. For that reason, he took part in a shady religion. A group of performers who enticed the queen to make money. The plan was progressing smoothly by using them…
“This place is not something that can falter me!”
Schneider had a distorted smile. He could no longer pretend to be a good guy. His guts boiled as he obeyed the hateful female professor’s words, but he could no longer go on.
“First of all, those four.”
If all witnesses are erased, the disgrace will not be known by anyone. No matter what the black man, whoever he was, says. In any case, the black man will appear with the question about the whereabouts of the four. At that time, the Hafen family’s elite will come and kill him.
“Fu, Fahah, Fahahahhaha!”
Schneider immediately took action—-.
An old-fashioned western-styled building located in a secluded area in the Royal GrandFelt Magic Academy. Surrounding it, a number of shadows were scattered. Eventually, ten people gathered in the forest near the main gate.
“Report the current situation”
The commander of the unit gave a command. They all wore the same black robes and covered the hood deeply to hide their faces.
“There are only four people in the building. All of them are gathered in the conference room in the south center of the second floor and are enjoying the banquet. Three people are drunk and in the same room due to the heavy sake. It seems like they all slept.”
“OK. Are the barriers on points?”
“Yes. Five people have finished building sound-proof barriers and intrusion detection barriers in three layers with different attributes.”
“Okay. Then, let’s commence the final operation.”
The raid unit is divided into three. Six men entered the building and split up inside then ascended two flights of stairs to the second floor. As soon as they entered through the door of the conference room which also has two doors, the four men outside rushed in through the window.
The sleeping people are to be killed all at once, and the corpses are to be carried away. After that, the five people in charge of the barrier will erase all evidence such as blood traces, and pretend that the four people vanished without a trace.
It would be a fuss if there were four people missing at the same time. The first to be suspected is the recently troubled Schneider. Even with all of that in mind, as long as you don’t leave any evidence behind, you can make up any excuse you want.
“Let’s start the operation”
At the captain’s signal, the four men ran outside the room where Hart and the others were sleeping which is south of the building. The remaining six people proceed to the front door.
“But, what did these guys do to him?”
One of the members asked while another member responded.
“Well, I do not know. However, it seems to be involved with the honor of the Hafen family.”
“Two teachers, two students. Why are we….doing this…”
“Do not talk nonsense. We will only do what we are ordered to do, and that’s it.”
The captain chided him nonchalantly, but inwardly he felt the same way. He was not told the details of the situation. However, he had reportedly heard that Schneider had caused trouble with the new students. The Hafen family most elite of the elite was sent to do the dirty work of assassination and such things as cleaning up a child’s quarrel. They had been trained to eventually confront the Lighting Princess.
Their exasperation is relieved by doing their job perfectly and throwing the four targets corpses at the idiot son. As the captain paced with a lecherous smile on his face.
“Ow!”
“What?”
The men ahead of him stopped in their tracks.
“What’s the matter?”
“There’s … something, like an invisible wall, that prevents me from moving on.”
The captain tilted his head at the way the void flattened and reached out his hand.
“………Surely, there’s something there.”
Something hard like a wall. There is no sound even if you hit it with a fist like knocking on the door. Divided into two hands and even looking for a gap.
“Neither is this. We can’t get close to the laboratory.”
“It’s completely surrounded the hall.”
They join the troop who were at the window. The captain jumped up by self-reinforcement and jumped over the two-story building.
“Upper floors are same as well”
The transparent wall was stretched over the roof and there was no gap.
“A Mithril knife won’t even faze it.”
Then, he spelled out the magic even though he will be noticed by the people. He was bounced back.
“What is this? Magic?…?”
“One of the targets is level 30 over, who is also familiar with ancient magic. There is a possibility of manipulating magic beyond our common sense…”
Even so, is it possible that an elite troop that were trained to fight the Lightning Princess can keep their defenses with their hands and legs asleep? They were not informed. There is nothing about the black man who cast a mysterious magic on Schneider.
“What do you want to do, Captain?”
“…It can’t be helped. Gather those who are maintaining the barriers for the time being. All of you blast through by using maximum magic and storm through the window to complete the operation.”
“Understood-uh…?”
When one of the members tried to turn his heel, he opened his eyes with surprise. Following the line of sight. Five of the barrier makers who were just about to call out to him are,
–Floating upside down.
All of them were crying as if they were possessed by fear, but no voice was heard. Their limbs were set in a strange pose, and only their mouths were moving.
“This is five. There are ten. This is all.”
A strange voice, like several overlapping voices, came from upside down companions. A strange man with a jet black body that melted in the darkness was also floating there. With a pose like sitting on a chair, the figure quickly flows through the air.
“I wasn’t upset, and I didn’t think anyone would approach such a remote place, but it was a correct answer just in case. So, who are you?”
Somehow, they felt that it was a playful tone. The captain did not know who this man is and what he is doing now. The only thing that is clear is that the man is dangerous. That was enough.
“Spread! Restrain him!”
Capture then ask questions. The captain’s judgment was quick and the members’ understanding was quick as well. Encircling the man without having to confirm each other’s movements. Two people who could use flying magic were deployed above his head.
They would never let him escape. With the common understanding that they would cut off the limbs first. They hurled attacks with different attributes from the left, right, behind, and even from above. However–
“You still won’t answer me? Good grief.”
The whole thing burst around the man and disappeared.
“Attacking others always leaves an opening. Just like those thieves out there, they are the same.”
Immediately after such a tweet was heard, people were startled. After such murmurs were heard, everyone was astonished. Every member of the team was frozen in place from the neck down and could not move.
”Captain! I can’t shoot magic like this!”
At the mournful cry, the captain took a step or two back.
“What, what is going on? This kind of…?”
His back hit an invisible wall. Then, he buried himself in the wall.
“Now, I’d like to ask who you are and why you came here… can you answer that?”
Then, the man shook one hand in the void. Several translucent plate-like objects appeared. Their image was reflected there.
“Well, I do not know, but it seems to be involved with the honor of the Hafen family.”
Without any difference in his tone, the words that one of the member of the troop said had just told him everything.
“Hmm. Are you guys from the Hafen family? However, I’m not sure if this is enough. Should I go back further?”
One of the plate-like things floating in the void reflected when they were gathering in the forest.
“Zoom up. And volume up!”
The situation in the forest was expanded and the voices become louder. It was a scene where the final confirmation of the operation was being made.
“Kill and carry the corpse… and make them look like they are missing.”
The tone of the voice went down.
“That’s really it, isn’t it? Why are you doing that? I’m sure it was pride. It’s Schneider’s order, right?”
His tone was broken. On the contrary, it was scary.
“I don’t really understand. By the way, it seems that you don’t know the detailed circumstances, but you followed the order. Isn’t it a rebuke of conscience?”
Afterwards, they were scared and had cold sweat through their back.
“No, Why don’t I ask the person directly? Why don’t you come along?”
Their field of view went dark–.
