Claude’s words were cut off. It was because he realized what it meant to catch the wizard.
At least on the surface, but Claude was well aware that wasn’t the case.
‘Your Majesty… will only be satisfied if the traitor’s blood that I kill is completely cut off.’
Chichester reminded Claude of the current situation.
“But Your Grace, the kingdom of Vega is not that easy.”
“I have no intention of going to Vega. If he had conspired with an Imperial Wizard, he would still be around here.”
Claude added in a confident tone.
“If a wizard walks down the street in Vega, he’ll be stoned.”
Sir Chichester asked curiously.
“By no means, are you planning to catch the wizard at Tors?”
“Wilder will be a good bait.”
Sir Chichester let out a sigh.
“…It’s Wilder’s idea”
“Of course.”
“The old man should now know that he has grown old.”
Claude smiled softly.
“He said before he retires, he wants to end all my troubles.”
“That guy doesn’t even know his place…!”
Sir Chichester gritted his teeth.
“As expected, he almost cut off my neck before.”
Claude turned his attention back to the report, as it wasn’t a day or two for him to complain about Wilder.
‘The spy traveled between the South and the Southwest. This means…’
He flipped and closed the report. The southwest is the road to the capital. Except for that, it was a boring neighborhood with nothing for the spy to be interested in.
“The wizard must be in the capital.”
“I think so too.”
Sir Chichester nodded.
“I can’t go to the capital.”
“Even if you go, it will be impossible to catch the criminal in that complex and easy-to-hide place.”
“As expected, I should use Wilder. Don’t worry too much. I’m not going to waste your friend’s life.”
“Your Grace, who is close friend’s with who…!”
Claude stood up laughing.
“He is not meticulous enough that he can’t confirm the fact that his target didn’t come to work. It’s only a matter of time before he gets caught in the trap. Then…”
After the youngest son grew up and became Duke of Tors, the southern part of the country and the imperial family maintained a friendly relationship.
“Behind it was the Vega Kingdom.”
Tuk
There was the sound of a fountain pen falling on the desk. Claude raised his head and looked at his loyal servant.
“What did you just say, Sir Chichester?”
“We caught the spy who was in charge of the tangent. The kingdom of Vega was behind it.”
Sir Chichester calmly repeated what he had just said. Claude frowned.
“Magic is not the way Vega does things. Was he trained to confess that when he get caught?”
