The Strongest Wizard Becomes a Countryside Guardsman After Taking an Arrow to the Knee

Chapter 346 – The Agent of Elkay

Chapter 346 – The Agent of Elkay

It took a bit for Vi-Vi and the others to come back through the transport circle.

Just had to wait.

Leah and her brother were talking about what had happened up to now.

The box with the demons was shaking, and I asked Yureena, ?So the capital’s agent is a zombie.?

?Yeah...it’s no good to do the usual...?

?The usual??

?Well, it would cause problems.?

I understood what she meant.

The agent was a zombie, but you couldn’t just execute him like a normal zombie.

?Tie him up, take him to the capital??

We couldn’t just bring him in through the transport circles, then.

I guess Timi could fly him in for us.

?I really wish Cruz could take care of this, but it’s the old Demon Lord’s place.?

?Yeah, just her stepping in here would get some monsters raging...?

I kept her away so that no one would get killed in the process as well.

I just wish she’d understand why she’s not wanted in a place like this.

?I guess we could ask Luka to do all of it.?

?You could do it yourself, Al??

?Yeah...ugg...?

This was going to suck.

I guess it’d be better for an old guy to do it than these kids, but, ?Luka’s better at explaining off stuff than I am though...?

?Yeah, I guess you’re right, Al.?

So for the next few hours, I changed the box around so it could fit the Demon Lord.

And after that, Vi-Vi and Timi arrived.

?So this is the Demon Lord’s castle! You look great, Shiggy!?

?ryaa ryaa!?

Shiggy was happy to see her aunt.

And Vi-Vi said that she had put the circle in Tom’s home with no problems.

Seems that Cruz was waiting for us in her palace in the capital.

?Well, let’s get the demon and the Demon Lord to the capital.?

?N...no! Pleasssse!?

I picked up the box with both of them sealed inside.

Since they fit pretty well, I was sure neither would die.

But it would probably hurt.

After shutting the box, I sealed it magically so they couldn’t see or hear outside the box.

Then I placed a gravity spell on the inside so they couldn’t tell which direction they were being moved.

With that done, we went to Tom’s house.

Then to Mulg, then to the capital.

Cruz was waiting for us there.

Luka explained to her everything that had happened.

?Al...this is the box with the two inside??

?Yup. Now I have to get the zombified agent here as well, so wait here.?

?Roger that.?

So I went back to Elkay with Luka and Yureena.

Timi was waiting at Tom’s house.

When I tried to enter the agent’s home, a soldier stopped us.

?I am viscount Luka Langow, I have something for the agent.?

?He’s busy. Please leave.?

Strange response for when a noble visits.

Normally they’d let you in without a word.

?Even so, I must see him.?

?He’s busy. Please leave.?

The same words again.

?This is hypnosis.?

?Yeah, please, Al.?

The soldier could speak, so he wasn’t zombified.

It was one glimmer of light in all of this darkness.

I knocked him out, and we entered.

There was a servant, but he didn’t notice us.

Maybe all of them were zombies.

As we went in, we found the office to the agent.

And there a secretary arose and shouted at us.

?You there! What are you doing!?

?I am Viscount Luka Langow. I’ve come to see the agent of the capital.?

?He is very sick. I am here in his place...?

?Excuse me.?

This guy had to be an underling of the so-called Demon Lord.

Luka pushed him over and entered the office.

Then the smell of rotting flesh hit us.

There was the zombified agent, signing and stamping documents.

?What the hell??

?SOMEONE! GRAB THESE INTRUDERS!?

He shouted, but the zombies didn’t move.

Luka grabbed him and slammed him to the floor.

?If you’re going to give a zombie an order, you have to know how!?

Yureena walked over to the agent and whispered into his ear.

?I am the holy Yureena Limnia. Please endure a little longer. I will soon set you free.?

I could see the agent still signing and stamping papers...but a drop fell and spread on a paper he was signing.

Almost like a tear.

We bound and knocked out the secretary and brought the zombie agent to the capital.

We also killed all the zombies in the home.

I gave zombie over to Cruz when we got to the capital.

?Al, thanks so much. Leave him to me! And thanks for this!?

She said, handing over the wolf mask.

?I’m off to the Ministry of Justice! Moofy! Come along!?

?Moo moo!?

Cruz jumped on Moofy while I put the box and agent on with magic, and Yureena and Luka left with her.

The Ministry of Justice and Commerce...well almost all the Ministries would be in an uproar about what had happened.

If I could help, I would. In Cruz’ palace was a maid petting Femm.

?Femm, it’s been a while!?

?Wuff!?

?Without you, I’d have a lot harder of a time!?

?Wuff! Wuff!?

Femm said with a wag of its tail.
