Chapter 152 Strongest Sage, Arrests
"Wha . . . Who are you?"
"Did we have this guy in the security?"
The city ruler was perplexed to see me who suddenly showed up .
Huh?
The reaction is not what I expected .
And I've gone all the trouble of coming here myself as a target of his attacks .
Don't tell me . . .
" . . . Don't tell me, you were sending assassins without even knowing my face?"
"Assassins? What are you--no wait, a brat wearing adventurer clothes with Disqualified Crest . . . Could it be, you're Mathias Hildesheimr!?"
. . . Seriously . He really didn't know how I look .
Yet he wanted to take me hostage huh .
"Yeah . You got that right . "
" . . . Where's the women?"
"Ruli and the others are in the back . Oy, everyone, come on out . "
The four showed up with Iris in the front .
I'm in the center of the room while the four are at the entrance .
Seeing that the city ruler sneers at us . . . and shouts out loud .
"Kuku . . . All members, surround him! . . . Fool! Straying away from the women on your own!"
With those words, hidden doors on the floors and ceilings opened and the city ruler's underlings came out of them .
. . . It's way too crude for an ambush .
At least try giving the signal without us noticing .
I threw out magic and fists at coming underlings while thinking that .
The attackers crumbled down without a sound .
Befitting of a bunch under this city ruler, their movements were also really crude .
The most difficult part was preventing myself from killing them by mistakes .
I'd like to squeeze info out of them after all .
"Soii!"
"GYAAAAAAAAA!"

. . . Well, such consideration seems to be irrelevant to Iris as an underling who was going to get pass her got blown off into the wall .
The city ruler was watching that in blank amazement .
Thus, his underlings were annihilated in under 30 seconds .
"Ho . . . How are you fighting! Weren't you a healer, the weak point of the party!"
Ruli and the others are looking at the roaring reddened city ruler with pitying looks .
They've ceased recognizing him as a threat anymore .
"He really believed that Mathi-kun is in charge of healing . . . "
"He'd have known that it was a mistake simply by looking at his equipment and stuff . . . . "
" . . . I mean, did we ever get hurt to need healing anyway?"
Now that you mention it . . . I don't think we ever did .
We should have some training to cope against injury to prevent inactions in case of emergency . . . but it's been getting postponed .
Well, putting that aside for now .
"Dogiel Melkia, you're under arrest . "
I took a rope out of Storage magic as I said that .
"Wha . . . Me, under arrest!? On what right!"
Don't tell me, he really didn't know .
Then why would they hunker down in this place .
I made an eye signal at Eiku while thinking that .
Eiku took out the document from the king and thrust it before the city ruler .
"Your apprehension has been ordered by His Majesty the king's decree . With my presence, the executive proxy, Mathias has been endowed with the right to arrest you . "
"Wha, it's fake! This must be a mistake--gah"
I shot magic at the screaming city ruler and tied him with the rope .
"Now then . . . Now we can leave it to you right?"
I asked Eiku .
"Yes . Mathias-sama could also execute him if you wished so, however . . . The kingdom administration would be grateful if I could bring him back alive . "
Well, I guess that's so .
Even this foolish city ruler might spit out some useful info with some tortures .
And he probably would get it easier if he died here .
However, I personally don't have any reason to let this guy die off so easily .
"I understand, I'll leave the rest to you . . . We've got something we ought to do ourselves after all . "
"Ought to do?"
"Yeah . . . . I've got an idea about how our raid here got leaked . "
