173. Allen Cell and Political Marriage [24]
When Lilim-senpai called out to the prisoner in front of her, the man called Sebas slowly raised his face.
「Oya… It’s been a long ti, Lilim. What are you doing here?」
The mont I heard his voice and na, I rembered everything.
(If I rember correctly… He is the vice-president of the student council, Sebas Chandler!)
A formidable swordsman who sneaked into the Holy Ronelia Empire alone and brought back the Blood Diamond requested by the president.
His strength is the real deal.
At the Sword King Festival, he cut down Lily Gonzalez, the general of White Lily Academy, in one stroke.
But imdiately after that, he was taken away by the Holy Knights due to various circumstances, so I completely forgot about his existence until just now.
When I rember what happened a few months ago,
「Sebas, it’s an ergency! We need your help!」
With a serious expression, Lilim-senpai asked Sebas-san, who was sitting in seiza. [1. TL Note: “Seiza” is the Japanese term for the standard formal traditional way of sitting in Japan.]
However,
「No. I won’t move from here. To be more precise, I can’t move.」
Without even considering it, he imdiately shook his head.
「What? Why…? Is it such a heavy cri!?」
Sebas sneaked into the Empire, a country banned from travel, and stole a rare mine resource, the Blood Diamond.
Perhaps being confined in this dungeon is the punishnt for that cri.
And as Lilim-senpai looked to Clown-san,
「No, it would actually be helpful if you can take him away. He’s actually sitting there of his own volition, which also causes trouble for .」
He scratched his cheek lightly, and smiled bitterly.
(…Sitting there of his own volition?)
I didn’t really understand what that ant, but…
Apparently, the reason he can’t move from here was not because of a『punishnt』.
And then,
「The president said at that ti, “I’ll pick you up later, so behave until then”. So I wait. Until the ti when she’ll pick up.」Sebas-san said, and quietly closed his eyes.
(…I see, that’s what it is.)
It seems that he stayed here of his own will.
(Co to think of it… When Sebas-san was taken by the Holy Knights, the president did say such a thing.)
It’s vague, but I rember.
However, judging from this current situation… She no doubt forgot about Sebas-san.
What can I say… I kind of felt sorry for him.
「I don’t care about such old stories! More than that, your dearest Sie is being used as a tool for political marriage!」
「In less than ten hours, she’ll be married to a noble of the Empire, though…!」
Lilim-senpai and Ferris-senpai shouted as they hit the glass pane.
「…HA!?」
Sebas-san’s mouth gaped open.
「…Lilim, Ferris. I think you know this, but I hate jokes. I’ll seriously get angry if you screw around too much.」
With a gentle smile on his face, he began to emit bloodlust, which almost causes my body to shudder.
「T-This is not a joke! Even right now, Sie is no longer in this country!」
「No one would make such a sick joke, though…」
「So you’re not lying, are you?」
Sebas-san asked, with a sharp gaze, and the two of them nodded at the sa ti.
「…I see. Understood.」
He stood up and slowly walked towards the glass.
And the next mont,
「…!」
He swung his right arm at an indiscernible speed, and tore through the tempered glass like tearing through a piece of paper.
「「「「「Wha!!!?」」」」」
After escaping without any difficulty, he stretched his body greatly.
(As I expected, this person is pretty strong.)
I heard that No.18-san used disposable chopsticks as a makeshift sword to cut iron bars, but…
Sebas-san smashed tempered glass with his bare hands.
「T-This glass is crazy expensive, you know…」
Clown-san dropped his shoulders and looked at the broken pieces of glass on the floor with a pained expression.
In that situation, Sebas-san turned towards .
「It’s only been a few months, but, Allen, you seem to have pushed further through the “inhuman path”. You are quite sothing to still remain sane even with that much power.」he said, shrugging his shoulders, seeming astounded for so reason.
(Now that I think about it, I feel like I’ve been told the sa thing before. Perhaps this person knows about Zeon?)
When I was thinking about that,
「Well nevermind, that is Allen’s own problem. Now, how do we save the president? Give instructions.」Sebas-san said, looking straight in the eye.
「First, we’ll head to the『Phantom Spirit Laboratory』in the outskirts of Drestia and find the『spot』. You can think of the spot as a place where you can travel back and forth between the Imperial Kingdom and the Empire. We will use it to invade the Empire and attack the residence of Nuro Dolan which is the ceremonial hall. Then, after we rescue the president, we use the spot to return in the sa way.」
「…I see, it’s not bad.」
「According to Clown-san, the ceremony will start in about ten hours. To be honest, we don’t have much ti anymore. I’d like to leave as soon as possible. Are you all right to move right away?」
「Of course. Even while we’re doing this, the president is having a hard ti. We have to save her even if by one minute sooner!」
「Yes!」
Now that we were all gathered, we headed to the Ringard Branch of the Phantom Spirit Laboratory.
