The Adventure of a Boy with the Mind of a Middle-Aged Man

Vol. 4 - Chapter 40 - The beacon to the extermination of Laguna, the second district of the imperial capital



Imperial capital, second district ―― Sivalier

I received counseling that the whereabouts of two young siblings, who are the residents of Vels town where Shirohime is working, has become unknown and as a result of investigating, it was confirmed that they are kidnapped by Laguna. And it's also confirmed they have been confined in the shady auction house in amusement town, second district.

The second ward is the largest influencing center as the paradise of high class nobles. Interfering in this place is equal to picking a fight with purebred aristocrats. Not to say there are even some annoying rules because of which none of the forces have infiltrated it.

However, I don't have any reason to be afraid of the likes of purebred aristocrats. To say, I'm also helping in the building of Vels's town. So if residents were left unattended, that in itself will leave behind a bad example. It's necessary to thoroughly beat them.

Though, there are two problems.

The first is, none of the armed forces under the Empire like the army or guards are allowed to enter the second district with the pretense that important rituals are performed. This is a regulation since the founding of the Empire, so it will not yield even to the Emperor.

The second is that the Empire's central administration of the justice department has become the puppets of purebred aristocrats, so even if we arrest them, it would all be in vain since they will be released either way.

For the first one, Our Sagami Company is a merchant group and not an organization that belongs to the empire. And it's possible for the members of the justice administration who's a non-armed group to enter.

Regarding the second, I have sent a mountains of evidence proving the injustice of justice administration department to the central administration of justice. If I didn't get the permission to expose all of it at once, I will send all of the evidence to commercial guild.

The current empire is borrowing a vast amount of money from the commercial guild. Supposing that the central administration of justice dares to meddle with the evidence, all of the merchants will immediately pull their hands from the finance at once. When that happens, it would be the imperial government who will be the cause of destruction.

If the imperial government turns out to be an idiot who will push the empire to ruin just to protect the purebred aristocrats of the scum organization Laguna, such an organization isn't worth retaining. I will overthrow them once and for all.

When I conveyed the final warning to the imperial government and asked for the permission to exterminate the second district Sivalier, the permission was granted more smoothly than I expected.

With that being the case, we are now gathered in the inn located next to the actual raid location.

"All the members have been arranged"

The one to report this was a black clothed man, Spy, kneeling on one knee.

"Listen well. Absolutely don't miss the leader of the illegal auction house Shicho. It doesn't matter what you do with the rest of the Laguna."

One of the court official who was participating in the strategy meeting made a gulping sound.

"What should we do about the visiting purebred aristocrats?"

Krama next to me expresses his questions politely.

"Arrest them, but if they resist, thoroughly teach them a lesson. So thoroughly that they don't feel like resisting again."

[ [Yes, My lord!] ]

Krama and the spy kneel and disappear along with short whiskers gentleman like a smoke.

"Now, shall we also move? Court official Luke"

When I urge the beautiful red haired woman with a ponytail,

"Yeah"

She nodded with a expression as if she's going to fight a mortal combat. The snowflake mark embroidered on the back of her robe is the symbol of court official. I was extremely surprised when she was introduced by the Baron Hakuro but it seems like she has climb up to the court official position and was invited to central.

With such, we tread on the path to the premise of a shady auction house.

Children were brought to auction one after another.

No matter how I look, the organization called Laguna clearly seems to be aiming at me. I think it would be unusual to have no hesitation even after being crushed so much. I don't intend to show compassion even the size of a water flea anymore. I will also bring the scummy participants down to the earth.

Waiting for a while, the kids abducted from the Vels town are finally brought to auction. Amidst the rising price shouts, I desperately suppress the murderous intent and intently waited for the opportunity.

"5 million!"

The one who stood up and raised his voice was a fat man with a blank feature and his eyes unnaturally protruding out.

The enthusiasm in the venue began to cool down at the shout of the man.

(Encirclement of the whole area has been completed. Not a single worm can escape)

I nodded in satisfaction at Spy's report I could hear from behind and stood up while raising the prince,

"One hundred million"

"Hey! Facilitator! There's no way a brat like him can pay 100 million! Kick him out of this place!"

"Young master, can you show the money?"

Asked the facilitator while rubbing the whip in his hand. I signaled to the court official sitting next to me with eyes, and she went to the platform and throw the cloth bag on the facilitator.

Facilitator scrutinized the content of the cloth bag,

"R, Real thing?"

His face was immediately dyed with a color of ecstasy and rubbed his hands together.

Seeing Luke tightly hugging the two, I hurled one last question at him.

"By the way, I can do anything with these kids right?"

"Of course~. It doesn't matter if you just appreciate them, chop them or love them!!"

These were the last words uttered by the facilitator in his life.

"Huh?"

As the next moment, his face was sliced off in an arc and the upper half of his face slowly dropped to the ground. A bit belatedly, the body which has lost half of his head also collapsed on the ground with a bang, like a marionette with its string cut off.

"gh...... "

"Hyaaaa!!"

The screaming chorus of the guests, appearing as if it was the first time they had seen such a gruesome sight, poured into my ear and I raised my hand up and snapped my fingers as I shouted [shut up].

Instantly, the transparent threads of the “Explosive thread” i have laid around in advance explodes, destroying the walls and the decoration around the room.

Taking advantage of this gap, a group of people armed with firearms rushed into the room. All the members of the group were dressed like special forces with helmets on the black color vest.

They restraints the Laguna’s members with skilled hands and points their muzzle at the guests.

They are the members of Sagami company special assault forces, formerly the members of Revise family. After the death of Gill, they all plunge themselves into hellish training and now, they are the elites even in the Sagami company. For them, Laguna is the foe who caused the death of the Gill and their predecessor. Even now, they are looking at Laguna’s members and the guests with ferocious and a dangerous glint in their eyes.

“Take care of children”

A few members of the special assault force nodded at my instruction and as they were leaving the premise with the spirit siblings,

“Holy spirit king-sama!! Please save! There are still others captured in the back like us!”

The blonde boy shakes off the hand taking him out, comes and cling to me and raises a pleading voice.

I patted his head gently,

“Understood. Leave it to me”

Saying so, I signaled them with my eyes. This time, the children are taken out by members of the Special assault force.

“You bastards! Which force do you guys belong to!? Don’t you know this is a sacred and inviolable second district? No armed forces are allowed to enter!!”

A fat aristocrat with protruding eyeballs and his whole face flushed crimson shouts in a hoarse voice.

“You are?”

“I’m Marquis Name Gushee. That's right, a marquis! It would have been beneath my dignity to talk with filthy guards like you originally!”

“And what is His excellency the Marquis Name Gushee doing in a place like this?”

“Well that’s…… “

Name instantly at a loss for words. Of course he will. Human trafficking of anyone but the sinners is now allowed officially. And none of those children seems to be sinners either, if this comes to light, it doesn’t matter if he is marquis oF somewhere or anything, they will be punished.

“His excellency Nema just happen to be invited by someone and stepped into a place like this only”

The blonde bob cut aristocrat who looks like a close aid next to him interjected.

“And for all of that, he seems to have proudly declared the price of 5 million so proudly, no?

“That’s…… I just felt those children are pitiful and thought of donating them. What’s wrong with donating them?”

So, there you have it. Although it’s refreshing to see the appearance of those noble aristocats who took pride in themselves dancing around in such a comical and unsightly manner, but time is pressing now. Let’s deal with all of this quickly.

“Fumu, there’s indeed not a problem with donation”

“That’s right. I was donating only! However, the audacity of you guys, don’t you know the rule established by His Majesty the First Emperor for you to bring the weapon into the second district!? What kind of country bumpkin are you! I will definitely makes you reveal the force you guys belong to and then, that organization— —”

“So annoying”

I turn my left hand palm at marquis Name, link both of his feets with my “explosive thread” and twist them up.

SNAP a sound of bone breaking resounds. And then — —

“Huh?”

A idiotic voice.

“Gyaaaaaaaa!!”

Then a bit delayed, a shriek echoes.

“I told you you’re being noisy”

This time I am going to break his jaw so he can’t even scream.

“Listen to me. It doesn’t matter what kind of high and mighty aristocats you are. You guys are nothing but filthy criminals. The fact that you guys engage in human trafficking, not to say purchasng the kidnapped kids will be announced publicly and you will be judged as the traitor to the empire. Don't you think so?”

Luke, who was looking at the gruesome site with a pale face twitched at my voice.

“It’s just as he said. I’m a official in the empire’s department of administration of justice”

She took out a letter from her pocket, opened it and while showing it to everyone,

“It has been confirmed that this place is an illegal auction house of Laguna — — a worldwide criminal organization. We are apprehending everyone here for participating in the kidnapping and trafficking of the imperial subject.”

She declared it loudly.

“Ridiculous! There would be no order if someone like a court official is allowed to do this kind of violence. Just state your affiliation! Army!? Or the guard!?”

For the voices of criticism arising against us,

“We are Sagami company”

Tetsu — — the head of the special assault force said it bluntly.

“Yeah. They are just a business company without any ties to the empire. To not contradict with the regulation for this time operation, His Majesty the Emperor, home ministry and attorney general have jointly commissioned the Sagami company to destroy the Laguna and expose the illegal human trafficking. If any of you have any objection, please take it to the court to your heart’s content.”

“Tha…. that”

Finally, the aristocats whose heads are drooping down are tied one after another and led out of the building.

Now, the annoying idiots have been dealt with. The only thing left to do is the extermination of Laguna. Not a single one is going to escape. I will make sure to capture everyone and send them to hell.

“I will leave the rest to you” Leaving those buzzing flies to the court official luke, I stepped into the back of the building to exterminate Laguna.
