Part Five

“Jeanne and Aura were kidnapped!”

Those words caused an uproar throughout the party. The ones who made the most noise were the neutral nobles, and some of them looked ready to spring into action at any moment.

“Duke Sanga, if the person who kidnapped them was a noble, and let’s say that, hypothetically, someone injured or killed that noble, what kind of crime would I, as their master, be responsible for? Hypothetically speaking, of course.”

The duke thought about my question for a while, then said, “Well, if there’s truly a noble behind this, it would depend on his rank and the severity of his injuries, but the girls might not be acquitted if they were the one who caused the harm. If that happened, you might be charged with some kind of crime as well. However, there’s a decent chance the whole thing would just end with a light fine. Of course, if the culprit is a low-ranking noble or someone who’s not a noble at all, the courts will surely write it off as self-defense. You’re not planning on killing anyone, are you?”

Upon hearing this, everyone around looked at me in unison. But that wasn’t really the problem—there was a very good chance I wouldn’t be killing anyone, but...

“I won’t rule it out, but I think there’s a greater possibility that Jeanne and the others will end up killing them. Not directly, but because they’re in possession of my golem bodyguards.”

“How much power do the golems have?”

I thought about it for a minute. “In terms of sheer combat strength, they’re about as strong as Shiromaru. There are two of them.”

In terms of magic and speed, however, the scorpion-type golem bodyguards didn’t come close to Shiromaru. They were made almost entirely out of metal, and since they lacked pain receptors, in a battle they would just continue to move even after being injured, pummeling their enemies until their cores were destroyed, no matter how much their own bodies were damaged in the process.

I couldn’t imagine Jeanne telling them to kill, but if she panicked and ordered the golems to protect them, the golems could do as much damage as a rampaging earth dragon. Speaking of which, I had just been thinking about using the core of an earth dragon to make my next golem...

“Tenma, I know you’re probably thinking about something weird again, but now is not the time!” Namitaro interjected with astonishment, somehow reading my mind.

“Sorry, Namitaro. Anyway, go ahead and tell me what happened.”

“Okay.”

According to Namitaro, he’d been napping in the garden when all of a sudden Leena ran into the yard and informed him that Jeanne and Aura had been kidnapped. Apparently, she and Galatt had been in town when they’d spotted Jeanne in the distance. They had been about to go say hello when all of a sudden someone jumped out of a carriage and kidnapped them.

The area of town where they’d been kidnapped was usually pretty deserted, so this seemed to be the work of someone experienced.
