Volume 5: Demon Slayer Chapter 035 The Inertia of the Plot
Darkness hesitated for a moment, then said with a wry smile, "Sato has been arrested."
"Caught ?" Emiya was stunned. Although he was a little surprised, he didn't seem to be shocked at all. Instead, he accepted it very quickly.
"So what did he do? Steal someone's underwear?"
Darkness couldn't help but complain: "Although Sato does often steal people's underwear, there's no way he would be caught for something like this."
Emiya said seriously: "No, no, no, in my world, his behavior is enough to be arrested and imprisoned for several months."
"Where does this law come from?"
"Of course it is the law of my world." Emiya had already planned to confront Darkness and the others. He came back this time to tell them his true identity.
Darkness didn’t dwell on this point. Instead, she said, “Anyway, we are discussing how to save Kazuma. Now that you are back, let’s work together to find a solution.”
"There's no rush for that. Let me ask first, what's going on with her?" Emiya pointed at Aqua with a look of despair on her face, as if she had lost her dream.
Darkness said: "This is what happened."
It turned out that after Emiya left, Aqua and her group lived a life of drunkenness and debauchery. After all, after Emiya divided the bounty for killing the Headless Knight equally, everyone obtained at least nearly 100 million Eris in wealth.
This is a huge sum of money for Aqua, Satou, and Huihui.
So at the beginning, these people just kept on making things and buying whatever they liked. They didn't know how to save money at all and spent money like water.
In just one month, the ten million Eris were spent.
Aqua, in particular, bought a lot of high-end sparkling wine and various high-end ingredients. She lived a luxurious life, and Darkness couldn’t stop her.
In fact, it wasn’t just Aqua. Megumin and Satou Kazuma were also like this.
Darkness was helpless.
Aqua looked like a fool with a lot of money, and soon attracted the attention of a group of businessmen. After seeing that Aqua was rich, these businessmen kept recommending good things to Aqua.
The prices of these things are more expensive than each other.
But Aqua didn't care about this because she had money. Even if she spent more than 10 million Eris, she still had tens of millions of Eris and didn't care about this little money.
However, at this moment, a businessman appeared beside Aqua and told her that he had a channel to get a batch of super high-end sparkling wine from the royal capital.
Not only can Aqua drink the remaining sparkling wine herself, she can also sell it to Axel, making money from the difference and earning more money.
If she was lucky, Aqua would not spend all the money. Instead, as her business grew, she would earn more Eris, forming a virtuous circle.
What he said seemed to make sense, but to Emiya, it was just a lie to deceive Aqua.
What is Axel? It is a novice adventure town.
The adventurers in this place are all low-level adventurers. How could they be willing to spend a high price to buy some super high-end sparkling wine?
If these high-end sparkling wines were really shipped to Axel, they would most likely face the embarrassing situation of not being able to be sold.
After all, the consumption in this town is there.
Of course, this is not absolute. What if it really is sold?
Anyway, whether Emiya believed it or not, Aqua believed it.
After all, everyone knows her intelligence.
So Aqua spent a lot of money to ask a merchant to bring a batch of high-quality sparkling wine from the capital of this country. This money almost emptied Aqua’s savings.
And this businessman did not run away with the money. He actually shipped a batch of super high-quality sparkling wine from the royal capital.
To be honest, even if this batch of sparkling wine could not be sold and Aqua kept it for herself to drink, she would not be in the current state. But the problem was that there was something wrong with this batch of sparkling wine.
Of course, this is not the merchants exchanging fake for real. In fact, this batch of sparkling wine is indeed super high-end sparkling wine.
But just as they were about to reach Axel...
The Mobile Fortress Destroyer appeared.
That’s right. The mobile fortress destroyer that destroyed countless cities created by the otaku who was reincarnated and sent to this world by Aqua herself appeared near Axel.
Axel's Adventurer's Guild suddenly made countless adventurers anxious, trying to fight against the Mobile Fortress Destroyer and protect Axel.
As in the plot, they succeeded.
Aqua took action to eliminate the barrier of the Mobile Fortress Destroyer, and Wiz and Huihui used explosion magic at the same time to blow off the Mobile Fortress Destroyer's thigh.
In the end, Axel's adventurers all fought their way into the interior of the Mobile Fortress Destroyer, putting an end to this behemoth that had dominated the continent for countless years.
However, afterward, Aqua received the news that her sparkling wine was ruined.
It turned out that on the same day that Aqua and the others destroyed the Excite Fortress Destroyer, the merchant also returned to Axel with the sparkling wine and was forced to be involved in the battle.
The explosion magic cast by Huihui and Wiz not only destroyed the legs of the Excited Fortress Destroyer, but the strong wind and huge waves caused by the explosion also blew away the merchant and his car who were hiding to the side.
The car at that time was filled with super premium sparkling wine that had just arrived.
As a result, everything was shattered to the ground.
Everyone present at the time smelled the strong smell of alcohol , but no one cared. Aqua even laughed at who was the idiot who was transporting alcohol at this time.
In the end, I found out that the idiot was myself.
From that time on, she became a salted fish without dreams.
I still haven't recovered until now.
The reason why Sato Kazuma was captured was also related to the Exciting Fortress Destroyer. At the beginning, they forcibly stopped the Exciting Fortress Destroyer's movement function, causing the Exciting Fortress Destroyer to protect itself.
Sato Kazuma ordered that the core of the Excite Fortress Destroyer, the Coronal Ore that was about to explode, be moved away using transfer magic.
As luck would have it, the place where the ore was teleported to was the mansion of the lord who governed this land.
Fortunately, the lord was not at home at the time, so he was not blown up along with his mansion.
However, when the lord returned, he was shocked to find that his house was gone. He immediately ordered the arrest of Sato Kazuma on charges of subversion of the state and put him in prison.
He will be tried soon.
Emiya scratched his hair and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that the inertia of the plot was really strong. He originally thought that with his intervention, Sato Kazuma would escape this disaster.
Unexpectedly, even though he had a wealth of nearly 100 million eris, Sato Kazuma was eventually arrested.
And the reason for being arrested was exactly the same as in the plot.
This is too...
"Let me ask you, when will Sato Kazuma go on trial?"
“Tomorrow,” Darkness said.
"So, how are you going to save Satou Kazuma?"
“Well…” Darkness glanced at Aqua, who was still in a state of inaction, and then looked at Megumin, who was full of chuunibaku power. Finally, she lowered her head and said, “Sorry, we haven’t come up with a solution yet.”
Emiya couldn't help but rub his head, he knew it.
"Forget it, leave this matter to me." Emiya remembered that the lord who managed the Axel area seemed to be a rather lustful uncle, and he was also an uncle who was in collusion with the Demon Duke.
"Hey, is this okay? You just got back." Darkness said a little worriedly.
"No problem, leave it to me, but you have to help me."
Darkness agreed without hesitation.
Emiya walked outside, "Follow me."
"Hey, where are you going?" Darkness hurriedly followed.
"Of course, I'm going to find the person who arrested Sato Kazuma. You should know this person."
The person who arrested Sato Kazuma was actually the kingdom's prosecutor Sena. From the outside, she was a black-haired beauty. At first glance, she looked like a boss's secretary. She was a very smart beauty.
Of course, she is also a very serious beauty, but unfortunately, this guy is a complete rotten girl.
Under the guidance of Darkness, Emiya found the prosecutor at the police station in the center of the town.
"What do you two want to talk to me about?" the prosecutor asked seriously.
"Ms. Prosecutor, I heard that you have captured Satou Kazuma and are planning to prosecute him for subverting the kingdom, is that correct?"
Prosecutor Sena narrowed her eyes at Emiya, "So, you're here to plead for Satou Kazuma?"
"No, actually I'm here to tell you that you caught the wrong guy."
"What?"
"The person you should really catch is not Sato Kazuma, but the lord who manages the Axel region. He is the one you should catch."
"Are you kidding?" Prosecutor Sena was dumbfounded by Emiya's words.
"I'm not kidding, what I said is true."
"Truthfully, why did I arrest the Lord? Can you tell me what crime the Lord has committed?" Prosecutor Sena asked calmly, her hands folded across her chest.
"Is colluding with the devil a serious crime?" Emiya asked back.
"What?" Prosecutor Sena was shocked at first. Collaborating with the devil is not a small crime in the kingdom, but she found that she had been led by Emiya since the beginning.
After taking a deep breath, Prosecutor Sena quickly calmed down and said sternly: "You know what you are talking about. Slandering the lord is a serious crime. Just based on your remarks, I can arrest you and treat you as Sato Kazuma's accomplice."
"This is not slander, but the fact." Emiya remained unmoved by the pressure from prosecutor Sena.
