Chapter 75: Rats!

  (*Celia’s POV*)

  In total, there are only a few hat we have yet to kill off. The only problem is that they went into hiding. In a big city like this, there are many pces where they could hide. But most of them clearly left this city, and they went to hide elsewhere.

  Which is why I am not iy at the moment, and I am just following a trail of a his noble is actually the worst one, as his crimes were enough to make even me want to torture him to death. But I know that Hell is real, so I won’t burden my soul with such a sin. He will be suffering far more while burning in Hell, after all. Literally!

  I am sure that he will end up in the lowest yer of Hell, just from the crimes that we know that he itted. Regardless, I will still have to find and kill him. Rather than a thhly thought out escape, this dude just ran away with his tail between his legs.

  Eventually, I came across a cave. I have some bad experiences with caves, but I khat this is where that man had run away to. Or at least, this is one of his temporary shelters. I took out my sword, and I carefully ehe cave.

  Quickly, I came across a shivering man. Due to his crimes, I won’t even dignify him with his he man was terrified by my appearanot because I was scary, or anything like that. Well, I robably scary to him. As I was clearly here to kill him off.

  Man: “So… you’re the ohat’s been hunting us?” He asked.

  Celia: “Yes, I am. Though, I am not the only one involved.” I reply.

  Man: “Fine, I tried my best to run away. But I clearly failed. Uhose hypocrites, I will not run from my sins. I k was wrong, but I did it anyway. I always khat I would get what is ing to me.” He said with a defeated tone.

  Celia: “Giving up so soo me guess, you want to ask something of me, right?” I ask with a raised eyebrow.

  Man: “…That is correct. I just wish for a painless death.” He pleaded.

  Celia: “You don’t deserve it, but I just stab you with my soul knife. You see, I am married to a Death Goddess, so if I stab you with it, you will just be sent straight to the afterlife.” I reply.

  Man: “That is more than I ask for. Besides, no oruly knows if the afterlife exists.” He replied.

  Celia: “Oh, it does. Both Heaven and Hell. Sorry to rain on your parade, but you will end up in Hell.” I say with a ugh.

  Man: “…”

  Despite my warning, he still let me kill him without resisting at all. And like that, he was dead. Stupidly, I his entire body back, just for proof of his death. Luckily, as long as something is dead, I store it in my iory, so that is what I did.

  With a sigh, I started the long trek back to the city. This dude ran miles away, which was impressive, sidering his attire was that of a nobleman. As I kept walking, I got a call from Ria. Of course, since she is my loving wife, I picked up the call right away. Annoyingly, the distao which she talk to me is detly limited. But the fantasy phones range is longer, so we have to use it to talk to each other.

  Ria: “Celia, did you deal with that st noble?” She asked.

  Celia: “I dealt with him, yes. But what do you mean by st noble?” I ask with a head tilt.

  Ria: “I have already killed all of the other nobles not on the list. You have his body, right?” she asked.

  Celia: “I do. Are we going to deal with April now?” I ask with a curious tone.

  Ria: “That was our iion, but the pn has ged.” She replied.

  Celia: “What happened?” I ask.

  Ria: “Queen April has decided to take the fight to us. Which just means that she is going door to door, trying to find who is responsible for this mess. Luckily, June isn’t suspected by April of being the cause.” She expined.

  Celia: “And it looks like they’ve found orator…” I say with a sigh.

  Ria: “Celia?” She said with a ed tone.

  Celia: “Sorry, it looks like I was followed. I have some annoyao deal with, I’ll talk to you ter.” I reply before hanging up on her.

  Somehow, despite me being somewhat careful, I ended up being followed. Dammit… I should have turned invisible while trag that man… Oh well. It’s not like I ’t hahem… As for who I am talking about, it is a group of a hundred knights.

  Looking at them, they were clearly knights directly under Queen April. At the very least, they looked both skilled and fshy. What a misuse of tax funds… Though, sidering this entire kingdom, I’d say that wasting tax funds isn’t that big of a deal. What was a big deal, was the person who stepped out of the carriage before me.

  June: “So, you’re the ohat’s been killing the honorable nobles of our kingdom? A trial isn’t even needed. Knights, kill this woman already!” She demanded.

  Oh, no… I’ve beerayed! Juepped out of the carriage, and looked to not even reize me at all. Have we beehis eime?…

  Ruina: “Stop being dramatic! June is just keeping her cover.” She said with a sigh.

  Yeah, I figured. But ’t a girl have some fun? Think about how iing it would be if Juually betrayed us. It would be funny, at least to me.

  Ruina: “…”

  Ju bato her carriage, and it drove off with her in tow. As for the knights, they all took out their ons and prepared to attack me. Yeah, I know that I am doing illegal shit, but I am a Princess. Shouldn’t they be more careful when dealing with me? Though, to be fair, I haven’t actually revealed my all. I prepared to fight them with a smile on my face, but then something bad happehey brought forth a captive. And it was someohat I knew. Fuck…
