Elasor, you're caught.

　--The day after Artoo defeats the S-rank boss.

　A room in the royal palace.

"What happened to the mission you gave Artoo?

　Princess Charlotte asked her subordinate knight.

"That's the princess...

Did you fail?

No. I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm sure it's a good idea.

... Wow!

He's the best of the best.

I'm so proud of you. You must definitely become a knight, Mr. Artoo.

Yes, that's right.

I'm not sure what to make of it, but I think it's a good idea. The more allies you have, the better, especially if you have a talented person like him.

"I know what I'm doing, Princess.

You asked for it.

Yes. ... And speaking of disturbing developments, the boss that Artoo defeated...

What's going on?

It was originally sealed, but it wasn't you who unlocked it.

So you're saying that someone else broke the seal?

Yes. So, someone else broke the seal. - Yes, and Artoo defeated him when he was attacking the city.

I'm not sure what to make of this. It was undoubtedly done with the intention of sabotaging Arto-san.

I think so too. I'm currently investigating, but I'm sure we'll find the culprit soon.

Please.

　†.

　--Captain Eraso was getting drunk with his men.

　If he fails, I'm afraid he'll have to pay for it.

If he fails, I'm going to be the knight this time!

　He told his subordinates.

　However, such a happy time could not last long.

"Hey, where's Eraso?

　Suddenly, Eraso was confronted by the royal court's military police.

"What is it?

　Elasor's eyes widened at the sudden event.

　The military police grabbed Eraso by both arms and forced him to stand.

The MPs grabbed him by the arms and forced him to stand. "We're releasing the S-rank boss and arresting him for endangering the city.

　When Eraso hears the word "arrest," his face turns pale.

"Wait, wait, wait, wait!　I had nothing to do with this!

I've already done my research. The guild appraised your sword and found evidence that you broke the warding in the mine. I've got testimony from your men, you can't get away with this anymore.

No, no, no!　I'm innocent!

No, shut up!　Just get him out of here!

　Captain Elasor is dragged away by the military police.

　The men who had been drinking with him were inwardly relieved to hear that their shitty boss was going away.

　†.

"Eraso will be sentenced to 20 years in the mines.

No, no, no, no!

　Eraso and the guild master were arrested. As a result of being charged with a number of crimes, including bribing the royal court and harassing his subordinates, both of them were sent to the mines.

"Oh, my God!　You'd better remember that!

　Like Eraso, Gilmas was sent to the mine, and he spat at the judge.

　But he no longer had the power he once had.

"Take these people to the mine!

　The judge ordered the military police.

"Wait, wait, wait!

　Elasor cried and was forcibly taken away.

　The judge ordered the military police to take him to the mine.

"Oh, you!　I won't forgive you!!!

　--he glared at Artoo, who was observing the trial as a person involved in the incident, and was taken away while saying so.

　I'm not going to let you get away with this.

... I guess bad things come back to haunt you. It's not very cosy.
