I took the lead and started walking toward the interrogation room. Four knights surrounded and started to panic.
「Hey, don’t go first. What the hell do you think you’re doing!」
「Naturally, I am thinking of exonerating my false accusation. What else is there to do?」
When I said this in a cold tone, the leading knight clicked his tongue irritably.
It was you who were dismayed by Douglas-sama’s declaration and fell behind. They probably didn’t expect things to get this big anyway, but they have to take responsibility for what they said. It’s not sothing you say to satisfy montum or self-esteem. You can’t take it back.
「What a sassy bitch.」
「Well, I am flattered by your complint. By the way, you are arrogant and rude.」
I smirk back. I couldn’t help but be amused as he looked at as if he was about to shoot dead, not hiding his irritation. He was a greenhorn to take on a provocation of this magnitude, hohoho.
「You are making fun of , the Count of Brace…!」
「Fufufu, I’m sorry.」
I’m not mocking you, I’m just stating a fact. Please be aware of yourself, I know you can’t.
But still, you are the Count of Brace, aren’t you? I wonder. Your fellow knights have admonished you and you seem to be making an effort to keep your cool, but you are failing. You can almost hear them grinding their back teeth.
「Tch, whatever. It won’t be long before you cry anyway. I’ll forgive you just for now.」
Yes, you’re right. It won’t be long before you’ll be crying. Do you have your handkerchief ready? If you need , I can lend you my handkerchief.
「That’s very generous of you, hoho.」
That’s for .
The four knights and I headed for the hearing room, exchanging such sarcasm. And following us is Raul. You can’t not co, can you? Even though it’s your subordinate’s arbitrary decision, if I am found to be falsely accused, you will not be spared from punishnt. It’s not a problem that can be dealt with by your favorite self-indulgent theatrical performances.
I am very angry with Sir Brace, but I am so grateful to him for giving the opportunity to vent my anger in an unexpected place. I won’t go easy on him, though.
「We’re here, get in.」
Pfft, I got to the hearing room first, didn’t I? It’s not cool to say this line from behind my back. I inwardly mocked him, but kept my composure on the surface and waited for him to open the door.
「Has the clerk arrived yet?」
When I entered the hearing room, I was suspicious that it was empty and asked if anyone was there. I asked him if he was suspicious.
「Do you think we need a secretary for just for you?」
「This is a necessary rule. When conducting an interview or hearing, the presence of a clerk is required in order to keep an accurate record. It’s not up to you.」
Is this basic stuff? Are you really a knight?
「You don’t an he doesn’t know about this, does he?」
I turned around and asked Raul and the other three knights behind .
「It can’t be. Isn’t it?」
All the knights except Raul, who answered in this way, including Sir Brace, looked uncomfortable and clamd up.
「Haah, we have no choice. Sir Colden, you will go and explain the situation properly, and then the clerk will co. Then we will have a interrogation.」
「Hey, one of us should go. How dare you take our captain by the chin!!」
What is the matter with you? There is a proper procedure for the presence of the clerk. You know that they don’t just show up when you call them.
「I am asking Sir Colden, who’s in the position of captain, to do this because you lot aren’t getting anywhere. This is sothing that should’ve been done before forcing to accompany you. You are the one who is making your boss, Sir Colden, clean up the ss. I suggest you look at yourself before you reprimand .」
「Wha—…!!」
I’m seeing how the knight in shining armor says,『I’m going to interrogate you now, so co here right away』without going through the proper procedures. You can be sure that they will be furious that you are disrespecting the Secretary. Therefore, in order to mitigate this situation, Raul, the captain of the group, went there and asked them to co, bowing his head, and that kind of appearance was necessary.
.
「Leave it there. I’ll go get the clerk. That’s all right.」
It’s okay or not, it’s only natural for Raul, the boss, to take responsibility for the mistakes of his own people. And yet, it’s no longer possible for him to complain『But…』or whatever. You should at least educate your subordinates well. Aren’t you not managing them well enough!?
「…Please do.」
There are so many things I want to say, but I hold back. I’m wasting my ti anyway. I’m going to be patient here to get the child knight and Raul to give a hard ti while I try to clear my na first, I think.
As Raul left the room, I put my hand on my forehead, as if to say, “I’m tired.”
「Lady-in-waiting-dono, this way, please.」
Perhaps seeing my condition, one of the knights led to a chair. Unlike Sir Brace, his attitude toward softened a little.
Ah, I guess he’s thinking of what would happen if my false accusation was confird. I was told that if I made my reputation a little better, I might be able to get a lighter punishnt for my warm-heartedness. I’m sorry to hear that. I have no intention of doing so. But it was also tiring to stand and wait for Raul to return.
「This is very appreciated.」
I thanked him frankly and sat down in the chair. So child complained again about that, but I completely ignored him.
I’ll deal with him when the clerk cos, so just shut up for a mont.
