Chapter 353: I Was Told to Rest

As soon as I entered the hotel, I quickly went to where Kayla is at.

“Oh, Roy. You’re back already?” Candy asked.

“Yes. I finished some work but I might have more. Candy, Wendy, you two will come with me to meet him tonight,” I said.

I just told Candy and Wendy that we will meet Albert. Even though I didn’t name him because there are other people than us here, they know who I’m talking about. And as expected, Fred is confused.

And I saw Kayla descending from the stairs. Just to be quick, I raised my injured arm which is covered by Victoria.

“Kayla, heal,” I said as I make Victoria unwrap herself from my arm so blood start dripping from my injury.

Seeing that I’m injured, those who know about my strength looked at me with concern. Kayla also hurriedly approach me to heal my arm.

.....

“Did you let down your guard?” Kayla asked.

“And they are more resilience than I expected. Sorry,” I apologized.

“Geez... When was the last time I need to heal you? You’re leaving now?”

“Yeah. I don’t know if I can cheer on you tomorrow, but good luck. You too, Jewel. And Sara. And the dude I don’t know his name. And your fifth annoying member.”

After my arm is healed, I took Candy and Wendy with me to meet Albert. We are riding on Spot’s back.

It is the first time Wendy rode on Spot, so she was a little bit scared. But she got used to it quickly.

“Why are you taking us?” Wendy asked.

“So, you know what order to give to other agents. You two must have known all the other agents’ face, right? Those who participated in the tournament and those who didn’t? It’s just to let the information spread faster. Though I’m sorry if in the end, it was unnecessary for you to come,” I said.

“No problem. The fact that you called for us mean it was that urgent. Even if we are not needed, it’s best if we at least listen to your report. You didn’t get the others because you want them to focus on their matches, right?” Candy asked me. She knows what I’m thinking.

“Right. And I doubt they will lose the first match tomorrow.”

“Even if their opponent is full of agents like Angela’s opponent?” Wendy asked.

“...how many teams have the members full of the agents?” I asked.

“About seventeen. Two are the seeded teams,” Wendy said.

“What about this morning’s team and yesterday’s winners?” I asked.

“Yesterday afternoon was a match between two teams full of agents,” Wendy answered.

Which mean that we already lost two teams full of agents. Why aren’t the official made it so all the teams filled with the agents will fight those who aren’t in the first round? That way, the second will be filled with all sixteen teams with powerful mages.

Maybe the officials made the draw fairly. That’s why Angela’s team faced against a powerful opponent right away.

As soon as we arrive at the mansion Albert is staying, we greeted Oleg who is still staying as his guard in Melk until Mustache arrive.

“Is Albert in?” I asked.

“He’s inside. Should I come as well?” Oleg asked back worriedly since I didn’t come here alone.

“If you want to.”

He decided to follow us inside.

Albert has been notified by Sonia that we’re arriving. As for Marie, I can see her sleeping with Lana and Alan. Sophie must have sneaked Lana to them after the match is over.

Once we meet Albert, I told him what I saw, what I heard, and what I did to him.

“So, they were the ones responsible for the kidnapping attempt for my son? Did you kill all of them?” Albert asked.

“I did. They are all expert level mages, and we are fighting at an inn. And someone else in the next room was killed as well. I don’t know who,” I said.

“Is there anything strange that you see after you killed them all and left the place?”

“No. Everyone there were scared, which is the normal reaction. They just got surprised that the room is suddenly destroyed. I don’t think any of them are cult members. Though I might be wrong,” I said.

“Sigh... just how many expert level mages do they have? They really thought that Angela is as powerful as expert level mage?” Albert asked again.

“Yes. After reporting to the guy waiting at the inn that kidnapping Shirley is too difficult, someone reported that Angela is too strong. They must have thought that Angela and Shirley are staying together and decided to return to kidnapping Alan. They said that they were sent by the Archbishop to conquer this kingdom.”

“That mean they will keep sending people here. Or the capital. Since I’m away from the capital, they will target Hector,” Albert said.

“Is he the Prime Minister already?” I asked.

“Yes. Hector will do the job as the Prime Minister. As for Lowe, he didn’t retire. He just picked more difficult job which is to negotiate with some dangerous people to get information about new arrival at the capital.”

“Well, now what? Should I go patrol more often?” I asked.

“No need. You brought Wendy and Candy so they can quickly report this to all the other agents, right? Those two will inform everything to other agents, while Oleg will inform the guards. Tell everyone to improve the security and investigate any suspicious people. Just like Roy said, you might need to observe their expression when they saw powerful participants. Don’t be too conspicuous. Maybe send some agents as the street vendor at the square as well.”

Albert started making some plans to increase the security around Melk. Tomorrow is a different day. There might be more arrivals coming from other place.

Even now, there are many people who stayed outside the gate and built a tent there just to watch the match. I guess I should check on those campers as well.

The three quickly do the task given to them. But... what about me?

“As for you, you need to rest. Sonia told me that you were injured. Although Kayla should have healed you, you must have loss some blood. Just sleep here since Oleg will be gone for a while,” Albert said.

I took his offer and sleep in the guest room. Because of the loss of blood, I was tired and quickly went into slumber.

“Wake up!”

I woke up after hearing someone is shouting. And it’s not the gentle voice of any of my lovers. It’s a male voice.

I looked at the source of the voice, and see a mustache.

“Oh, Mustache, you’re already here?”

“His majesty told me to hurry, so I asked a wind mage to bring me here. Seems like there’s a trouble, huh?” Mustache said.

“Not really. In fact, I just prevented the trouble from happening. What time is it?” I asked.

“The time for team from Cassau to fight. Don’t you need to watch them?”

“After patrol the area. Seems like I sleep longer than I expected. Is Albert already at the Arena?”

“Yes. I was told to come here and wake you up before the match ended. His majesty said that you need to at least watch Jewel and Kayla fought.” Mustache explained.

“What about the annoying dude?” I asked about the member of Cassau team who entered through bribery.

“He was covered in magic items, but he still lost quickly. That was also the first time someone used magic items in the tournament. Many people complained, but because the rule said that it’s fine to use any magic items as long as they are not used for killing, everyone reluctantly accepted it,” Mustache said.

“Well, he’s going to be the laughingstock of everyone watching. I bet his father is losing face letting his son fight in the tournament. I don’t think he has enough magic items to go for the final.”

“Before I left the Arena, it was Sara’s turn. She was the third fighter, but she defeated two opponents on her own. She’s fighting the third one when his majesty asked me to come here,” Mustache said.

“Two opponents? That mean she’s strong enough for the cult members to take notice, right?” I asked.

“Even on my way here, I see some people doesn’t like her to win. Just like you said, we are going to investigate them carefully. We will make sure those who are following them to not get too close since they are most likely expert level mages. Just leave the patrol to us. You need to watch the fight,” Mustache said.

I guess I can still watch Jewel fight. I don’t think Sara alone is enough to win the rest of the match. But for Jewel, she can do it. That mean Kayla won’t have to fight.

I don’t see Victoria and Spot around me. Albert must have brought them with him. That’s why Mustache is fine leaving his side.

Since I didn’t get a ticket, I watched the match from the rooftop. It was right at the time for Sara to win her third fight, and will fight the last fighter. I guess the other agent managed to defeat one opponent then.

Sara lost the match, but she was applauded by the audience for her strength. Everyone is now expecting a fight as great as yesterday, and Sara did it well.

Next turn is Jewel. This should be a piece of cake for her.
