A Frontline Soldier Awakened as a Gamer In The War! - FSAGW Chapter 95 (Part 2)
“Hello, Lord Vyarolf. We come from the Armis family, so please calm down for a moment.”
“Armis? Ah! You guys are the Shadows, right? So, you’ve come to rescue me, huh? Haha! I knew it!”
Vyarolf laughed, looking at the masked individuals as if he had never been afraid.
“We’ll release you right now, so please step back for a moment.”
As Vyarolf and Delonce stepped back, the masked figure swung the dagger surrounded by Aura.
Clang!
The shoddy iron grating was easily cut through.
As soon as the grating fell, Vyarolf crawled out, muttering to himself.
“Hurry up and release me. Ugh! When I return to my family, I won’t let those Markain bastards get away with this!”
“Understood.”
The masked figure extended their bound arms towards Vyarolf, their eyes gleaming. The command they received was not for rescue but for assassination.
The masked figure was about to swing the blade towards the unsuspecting Vyarolf.
“Wait!! Stop right there.”
The voice coming from behind forced the blade to stop.
As the masked figure held the sword tightly, he turned his head calmly, revealing a young boy standing there.
“…How did you get in? There should have been number 4 and number 5 guarding outside.”
‘I didn’t expect this. Count Armis… he’s a despicable one.’
Unable to sleep late at night, Kaiyan had entered the other dimension to play with his horse and came out to find Rieka waiting for him in his room with an anxious expression. When he asked what was going on, she said that the magic alarm they had set up in the underground warehouse had gone off, so he hurriedly rushed to the underground prison.
However, what Kaiyan hadn’t anticipated was that the intruders’ intention was not to rescue, as he had initially assumed, but rather to kill Vyarolf.
‘Perhaps they’re after the fact that Vyarolf died within the Markain family.’
“You, you’ve done nothing wrong! They just tried to take me!”
After looking at Kaiyan, Vyarolf, whose face had turned pale, spoke as if trying to justify himself and quickly retreated into the broken iron grating.
“Stay there.”
“…What did you do to Lord Vyarolf?”
The masked figure stared at the trembling Vyarolf and then looked at me suspiciously.
“It’s nothing much… He just kept lying when it would have been better to confess, so I used a little force.”
“You tortured him?”
“Impossible. Look at his body. Do you see any signs of that?”
In fact, there was no torture. He took a single punch, and then he spilled all the information he knew.
Thanks to that, I was able to easily store the information in an artifact that recorded sound, and this artifact would become a crucial weapon that threatened the Armis family.
‘Although I used up all my remaining G to purchase the artifact.’
“I see. Numbers 2 and 3, kill him. And don’t underestimate him. I’ll carry out the mission.”
“Understood.”
Upon hearing the masked figure marked with the number 1’s words, the masked figures marked with the numbers 2 and 3 blocked the path. The person who seemed to be their leader turned his body towards Vyarolf after giving Kaiyan a quick glance.
The mission he mentioned seemed to involve killing Vyarolf. While the other masked individuals were buying time, they intended to kill Vyarolf.
“That won’t do. Activate Aura! Body Enhancement!”
In an instant, a burst of power surged through Kaiyan’s body. He felt a tremendous strength that could tear through anything with his sword alone.
Normally, he might have savored this feeling, but right now, the priority was preventing the masked ones from killing Vyarolf.
With a strong push off the ground, Kaiyan swiftly advanced. The two masked individuals, appearing surprised by his speed, instinctively swung their daggers. However, both of them were at the level of lower-tier experts, just like the ones outside.
Seeing the daggers flying towards his head and heart, Kaiyan quickly drew his sword and struck it down with force.
Kwaaah!
“Kyaah!”
“Kuuh!”
The daggers that collided with his sword shattered into pieces, and the two individuals who couldn’t withstand the impact vomited blood as they were thrown backward.
“What’s this?”
The leader of the group seemed surprised or perhaps desperate as he tried to swing his dagger at Vyarolf, but…
“That won’t work!”
Kaiyan, without slowing down, used a Shoulder Charge.
Pwooong!
The one hit by the Shoulder Charge was sent flying to the prison wall, dropping his dagger in the process.
“Ugh… Ugh…”
Momentarily in pain, he seemed to be stunned by the impact.
Kaiyan turned his head towards Vyarolf and Delonce. Delonce was burying his head in the ground, while Vyarolf was trembling in fear and muttering something.
“Mo… monster…”
“You fool. Do you really think they came to rescue you? If it weren’t for me, that guy’s dagger would be buried in your heart right now.”
“W-what are you talking about?”
Despite his trembling, Vyarolf vehemently denied it, which only made him seem pitiful.
“Fine, the two outside are still alive, so you can ask them. Figure out who’s telling the truth.”
“T-there’s no way. That’s impossible. I am a noble of the Armis family! They came to rescue me!”
Looking at Vyarolf, who denied the reality while trembling, Kaiyan shook his head and was about to leave.
“Wait.”
A good idea crossed his mind like a passing thought.
While he had already found a way to hit the Armis family, wouldn’t it be a proper revenge to give Vyarolf’s family a two-pronged attack?
Turning back towards Vyarolf, who was scared and hiding behind Delonce, Kaiyan said, “Vyarolf, let’s go outside.”
“Go outside? Are you trying to kill me?”
“It’s not like that. If you go outside, I’ll give you a good meal, let you sleep in a real bed, and of course, I’ll untie you.”
“What are you talking about?”
He wanted to give a good smack to the suspicious-looking Vyarolf who seemed to doubt everything.
“Oh, and before that, didn’t you mention that your father is in charge of the northern territory for the Armis family?”
“Y-yes, that’s correct. My father is the central figure of the Armis family in charge of the northern territories.”
“Good, that should be enough.”
Would Vyarolf’s parents know that Count Armis had tried to kill him?
He was already looking forward to their reaction if they found out.
