Chapter 47: Live to the fullest

"Is that your idea? Or is it an order from above?"

I asked the garrison commander, who had no intention of opening the castle gate.

I didn't like the fact that the guy who was trying to take advantage of his position to take advantage of women in the first place was preserving his position, but he decided to exercise patience.

"Ha, you acted like you were proud, so what do you mean by the monsters and the subject you brought?"

"So, Hazel accepted this too?"

"Of course. The countess ordered me never to open the castle gates."

Of course, there was no need to believe the words of the garrison commander.

Rather than listening to the words of an insidious bastard, it's right to trust what I saw and felt.

But, judging from how confident he was, it was possible that Hazel had approved of this in some way.

Simply put, it was my judgment that Hazel might not have been the subject of this order, but she would have agreed.

'That's right, I'll check it out.'

I looked at the castle gate with a strange smile.

Butler Castle's gate was a double structure, divided into a lattice-patterned iron gate and a thick wooden gate.

Among them, an iron gate made of lattice was seen blocking the front gate of the castle.

Through the hole in the iron gate, I could see the residents of the Butler estate looking out from inside the castle with anxious expressions.

The funny thing is, the refugees who had been trembling outside the castle until recently were also watching the situation.

"Why are you guys just watching? These are also people like you, and they are also people who have fled from their hometowns."

"…"

Despite my shouts, the residents and refugees just stared at us without moving.

It was just disgusting to me to see their expressions, asking what kind of power they had to open the gates.

"Abolish the gates completely!"

At the words of the garrison commander, several soldiers rushed in and started turning the pulley.

The wooden board corresponding to the entrance rose little by little, and eventually it was seen that it was blocking the gate.

"What are you going to do about this?"

"Now, there is nowhere to run!"

It was natural for the refugees who followed me to be shaken by the words of the garrison commander.

The only thing that got better was that it didn't come out unattended like in the first round, probably because of what I had already experienced.

They too will be after me, and they will see clearly what kind of person I am.

"What are you going to do now?"

Saint Marianne asked me that, and instead of answering her question, I pulled out the Peril sword that was worn around her waist.

The lightsaber probably survived because Lilith came here.

This was originally his technique, but I decided to use it without hesitation.

"What happens from now on is your responsibility."

I crouched low, then raised my sword and rushed toward the gate.

"After being chased by a monster, he finally went crazy."

I heard the voice of the garrison commander watching what I was doing from the top of the castle wall, but I didn't have time to answer his words.

I was pouring all my energy into the sword I took from Peril, and then the ordinary sword began to emit a brilliant light.

Bang-.

With a loud noise, as if a thick castle gate exploded, pieces of wood were scattered, and the iron gate of the lattice that was closing the inside was also damaged beyond recognition.

'It's a bit of a shame. It wasn't a bad sword.'

I looked at Peril's completely ruined sword and threw it to the floor without regret.

In the strange silence, only the sound of a broken sword rolling on the floor could be heard.

When something hard to believe happened even after seeing it with their own eyes, people just looked at me with a stupid expression without making a sound.

"What are you doing? Without evacuating to the castle."

Marian, who finally came to her senses at my words, started leading the refugees into the castle.

I saw some soldiers blocking their way with spears, but when I sneaked forward, they started backing away in terror.

"Hey, are all these crazy people? Are you all going to die?"

From above the gate, the voice of the garrison commander was heard again.

He was in a state of fear that I might harm him, but he was asking such meaningless questions as if he didn't understand the situation easily.

"If you want to live, try hard to block it."

That's what I replied to the garrison commander.

In the first place, I had no intention of saving them for nothing.

Just like the refugees from outside the empire, those in the Butler estate had to take a test to be fair.

Just as I gained strength and took responsibility, it was right for them to take responsibility for their own lives in order to live.

"Creek- Creek-."

The cries of the monsters that had been heard from afar got closer little by little, and before they knew it, they started pouring into the castle.

They were small monsters, such as goblins, but those who were controlled by the Demon King's army officers were moving much more agilely than their original body movements.

Butler Yeongji-gun, who was only thinking about the defense battle, was taken aback, and the castle was no different from Muju Gongsan.

The small monsters that entered the castle fiercely charged at the frozen people, and soon screams and shouts resonated throughout the castle.

The interesting thing was that even in the midst of the chaos, the targets the monsters attacked were extremely limited.

"Marian, keep an eye on them."

Lilith would get away with it anyway, but I said that to Marian and slowly started walking toward resistance.

I'll leave it to Lilith for the janitors, but Hazel had something to check.

"Yo, warrior…"

Heading to the inner castle, I was able to face Charlie, who was rushing out of the castle.

Charlie's face was terrified, as if he had already been reported to her at the castle gate.

I smiled at Charlie and asked.

"Where are you going in such a hurry, magistrate?"

"That, because it said there was work on the wall."

Even in that short moment, I burst into laughter as I watched Charlie roll his hair.

Of course, he could be headed for the castle wall, but the bag in his hand seemed quite heavy to see that he was heading to the battlefield where the incident occurred.

I walked up to the frightened Charlie and lightly kicked him in the stomach.

The coward, who only knew how to roll his head, rolled on the floor with just one light kick and began to vomit the things in his body.

All kinds of valuable precious metals spilled out of the bag he missed.

"What is this? Why? Were you trying to reward the soldiers?"

"Ugh…"

Charlie couldn't even give me a proper answer to my question with a distressed expression on his face.

Looking at the guy's reaction, you could tell whose head it was that blocked the castle wall.

It was because he had a facial expression that was unique to him.

The only thing I didn't understand was what the gain of this guy by fucking me was.

"Why did you do that?"

"Keugh. It was an inevitable choice because monsters could enter the castle."

Charlie, who was caught by me, excused himself like that.

Of course it could have been, but he still couldn't look me in the eye properly, as if he were hiding something.

"No, not that. The real reason."

"… I'm blocking the city gates. What else could there be?"

I frowned at Charlie, who was dropping the hour hand.

It's a situation where he doesn't seem to be able to open his mouth easily.

But at that moment, a letter made of luxurious material fell from Charlie's arms.

After throwing Charlie on the street, I picked up the letter he dropped.

"That, that."

Watching Charlie look at me in bewilderment, I could tell there was something in the letter.

And after examining the letter closely, I immediately frowned.

It was because the prince's seal was intact on the letter Charlie was carrying.

Kill the warrior.

The content of the letter was just that.

I realized why old Charlie was holding this letter dearly.

It seemed that he was planning to run away to the ecliptic and entrust himself to the crown prince.

The problem is not Charlie, but the prince, Aaron.

'Why the hell is he...?'

I couldn't understand the behavior of the prince, who dared to send a letter to the vassal of the Butler estate to kill me.

There would be no reason for Aron to kill me in the first place; he was only full of thoughts of using me.

Perhaps, even in the first playthrough, I thought about whether Aaron was involved, but it was difficult to be sure.

I can't say it's a good relationship even if I die, but Aaron used me properly.

In the first place, the prince was not a person who would throw away a hand that was easy for him to use.

In addition, the fact that I went to the Butler Mansion this time started not by the order of the emperor but by my own will.

There were already many variables, so it was unreasonable to infer what happened in the previous round based on what happened now.

"My, give it to me!"

Charlie shouted at me, but of course I had no reason to give him the letter.

'I'll have to check this separately.'

With Aaron's letter in my bosom, I looked at Charlie and said,.

"What a funny guy! Shouldn't now be the time to think about the future?"

"What, what?"

"Creek- Creek-."

A few monsters were running fast behind Charlie.

"Live to the fullest, magistrate."

I said, looking at Charlie with a sad expression, and soon saw a goblin near Charlie brandishing a short dagger at him.

After that, I heard Charlie's screams, but I just moved towards the inner room without any regrets.

It was because I was much more curious about Hazel's reaction than the unlucky Charlie.
