genius prince vol 8: chapter 19

-----------------------

As it turned out, no traps or suspicious places were found in the area we surveyed. Of course, we did not fully investigate everything. There are concerns that we may have missed something. However, at least there were no places where a large number of soldiers could be hidden or where traps were set. There was some concern that the rickety buildings might collapse at any moment.

After confirming the escape route in case of emergency, Ninym left the abandoned mansion after finishing work. By this time Wayne will be staring at the documents right now. Ninym went back the way she came, thinking that she had to go back and help him immediately.

"......That is"

Ninym sees a figure on the side of the road as she arrives in a popular area .

"What are you silent about, old man?"

"why Don't you give me anything valuable."

Apparently, two men are involved in a well-dressed old man.

"..."

I shouldn't stand out. I have urgent business to attend to. They didn't seem to notice me. that's why

"It can't be helped"

Ninym decided to rush to make a surprise attack so that it wouldn't stand out.

"Oh?"

she approached the men silently from behind, grabbed one of the men's arms, and twisted it vigorously.

"It hurts, what?"

Before the man can even blink his eyes to see what's going on, Ninym quickly pulls out a dagger and holds it to his neck.

"Don't make noise"

The man gasps at the feel of steel on his neck, forgetting the pain in his shoulder. In response, Ninym glared at the other man.

"Stay away from that person."

" Hey, you ....... ......!"

" I said stay away from him. Do you want your friends to die? "

The man flinched at the tone of his voice and took a step or two away from the old man. Seeing that, Ninym pushes the detained man away and breaks in between the old man and the men.

"Leave. If you continue, you'll see blood."

" Ugh, you little..." "

"Yeah. This guy is not an amateur."

Even though it's two against one, it doesn't mean they can win. Even if they did, as Ninym said, they would see blood. This kind of people who would rob an old man to get rich would not have the guts to tolerate such a situation. The men cursed Ninym verbally Then left quietly.

when they were completely out of sight, Ninym finally let her guard down.

" Is everything all right?"

she turns around and speaks to the old man. The old man nodded slowly, turning his cloudy white eyes toward Ninym.

"... Thank you. Thanks to you, I don't see any blood."

Ninym responds.

"It doesn't seem to be very safe around here. I'd like to say something, but you should avoid going out alone."

"... I walk a little outside this time every morning, though I usually use a more empty road."

"I see, it seems like you've had a bad luck from a whim."

"No, it's not"

The voice of an old man was amazing.

"A whim can't happen to me, but today I've taken a different path, stranded by the silly guys, and you've appeared there ..."

The old man meditates in anxiety. He said he was wondering what was wrong.

" I guess you have a role to play. It's good to go. I'll be picked up in a while, so don't worry."

"... Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to take your word for it."

It's not surprising, but there's no doubt that he have something to do. The voice of an old man reached Ninym's back as she turned on her heel.

" There is more than one storm brewing .Thou shalt be mindful. A calamity will come soon."

" Hmmm... strange old man you got there."

Wayne, who heard Ninym's story, responded in a casual manner.

"You don't seem very interested. "

"It's not uncommon for an eccentric weirdo to be at the knees of a major religion. but it's not like Ninym was hurt. ...... For me, the story of Felite that Franya brought is more important." "

"I think it's a complete prejudice that weirdos aren't uncommon, but ... well, I agree that I'm worried about Patura."

Wayne grunted beside Ninym, who nodded

"I'm really satisfied with the request over there and how it happened, but what's the matter?"

"It's annoying, just Wayne."

So Ninym points forward.

" It's over here that you should focus now."

The time is night. The place is in front of that abandoned house that Ninym did a preliminary survey early in the morning. From now on, a secret talk will be held here by Wayne, Tigris, and a third person.

"... That's exactly what Ninym says. This is just as important."

Where Wayne said so

"I have been waiting for you"

It was husht, a servant of Tigris, who showed up with his voice.

"What about Tigris?"

" Go inside first. The other one should be there too.."

husht said.

" Tigris has asked that you enter the house alone. The guards are to wait outside."

Ninym frowned at the request, but Wayne controlled it by hand.

"I understand, I don't have any objections, let's go right away."

Wayne then enters the abandoned house alone, leaving a disgruntled Ninym behind. It was dim inside the mansion. It's dim, even though it's indoors with no lights, because of the moonlight that shines through hole in the wall.

However, there was no one to be seen.

"Tigris?"

Call into the darkness. Then, after a while, the reply came from above.

"Oh, Prince Wayne"

If you look up, you can see the atrium upstairs. Tigris was coming out from the edge of the second floor passage.

"What are you doing in such a place?"

When Wayne asked, Tigris replied.

"No, the third person was a little stubborn. I was just persuading him."

"Are you sure?"

"To tell the truth, the third person is pretty careful in forming an alliance with Prince Wayne."

"... . Wait, you're telling me you haven't finished discussing this with the third person by this time?"

" Well, I'm here. There is no doubt that the other party has the same intention. Wait a minute, and I'll take you right away."

Perhaps because he escaped from Wayne's mouth-to-mouth attack, Tigris quickly withdrew his face.
