Eternal Adventurer (WN): Chapter 589

 

Toward a Solution



School life has begun again


First day of school of the new semester


Eugenia and Mileina walk in front of me.


There are people from her faction around her as usual.



"Ara? It's you poor people!"



Eri Drassel and her faction stand in our way.


She had already stopped hiding her true nature.



"You must be living a tough life, unable to live a decent life without being influenced by the prince of the empire, aren’t you?"



I've already talked to everyone in the faction.


Our faction...



"...Why don't you say something!"



A woman screaming in frustration



"You guys! What a disrespectful attitude to Eri Ojousama, who will become a Marchioness!"



Everyone ignores everything and heads to the school.



"By the way, Eugenia-san, I tried mixing our country’s flowers into the soap while school was closed!"


"So, did it go well?"


"Yes, my father presented it to the lord and he was very pleased!"



They continue to live together within the faction.


It's okay


If you completely cut ties with Eri's faction like this, things will go well in the future.


We've already confirmed it, after all.

"Ugh, shit! Let go!"



Just when I thought I had finally finished my work, I received a call from Prince Ask.


Yukikaze-sama was also next to him, so I knew right away that this was no ordinary matter.


And by combining the information we both knew, the answer came easily.



"Where are you from! Who do you think I am!"



In front of me, a criminal tied up with a rope is struggling while being restrained by knights.



"You are Hasou-dono, the eldest son of Samuel Nehru, Count of the Holy Kingdom."


"You knew! You can't just do something like this and expect to get away with it..."


"I have a letter from your father."



I placed the letter in front of him so that he could read it even if he was unable to move.



"…What is this!"


"The decision has been made to disinherit you."


"D-don't be silly! You, what did you do!"


"No matter what I did, this is what happened when I told him what you did."



A golden liquid that causes people to hallucinate and have impaired judgment.


This man was the one who led the cultivation.



"You thought about sending nanomachines to the Empire, Geldarinne, Samuel Islands, or even pro-Imperial countries. No, you haven’t thought that far ahead. It’s probably just a coincidence."


"Y-you guys! You burned down the ship!"


"That's right. That kind of thing made me uncomfortable."



When the criminal in front of me heard that, his expression turned grim.



"That sea area is not your territory! Even those nanomachines are not illegal within the Holy Kingdom! This is clear interference in internal affairs!"


"Oh, that’s fine."



I showed the criminal another letter.



"This is your arrest warrant."


"What…"


"We know that you kidnapped poor people from all over the southwestern continent and used them as nurseries for nanomachines. We contacted many countries to confirm."



It was a really tough check.


Anyone would get tired if asked to travel through 14 countries in 3 days.


This man's actions were declared unforgivable by 13 countries.



"The charge is human trafficking. It's easy to understand."


"S-sophis..."


"There's no reason to be sophistical. It's all true, and you're no longer in a situation where you can get away with it."



I looked at the knight


The destination is a room where knights who can use needles to peer into other people's memories are waiting.



"Yeah, since you asked where I am from, I’ll answer."



I feel very good because various problems are being resolved.


That's why I was able to answer with a smile.



"Interstate Crime Investigation Agency, Aristes Edgeworth, rank Colonel. Please remember me if you can."
