Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure Chapter 469 The duke’s visit (10)

After the two green haired elves enjoyed themselves for a bit, they turned their attention back to .

They looked at with those smug looks on their faces.

It was completely different from before where they had acted indifferent.

Now, they acted like they were much better than as they looked down at sitting on the ground.

Now, they acted like they were far above and could command however they wanted.

That was the image that I had put on while I had been selling these items.

After all, each ti that they paid, they always dropped the item on the ground for to pick up.

It was as if they were saying that I was only fit for picking up their scraps.

Still this was what I wanted to see.

After all, it was only like this that I was able to get them to let their guard down and give the information that I wanted.

The next words that they said imdiately did that.

The one on the left said, "I've heard that you were here when Sir Apollo left."

The one on the right said, "We also heard that you two didn't get along…"

His voice trailed off as if he was implying sothing.

As I had expected, they had co here to find out what had happened to Apollo.

When he didn't return, his father must have gotten worried and sent these people to check on him. Or…his father might even know that he was dead, so he was trying to find the culprits who killed his son to take revenge.

Regardless, it was clear that they were targeting .

Whether it was because I was a human and it seed likely that a human would do sothing like this, or if they were just using as a scapegoat, it was clear that they were targeting .

At the sa ti, I learned sothing else from their words.

It seed that these two already knew so things about .

As for how they learned these things…it was clear that there were so people that were involved in this matter.

The people who were sitting around the room with us.

The elders of this elven village.

But I didn't bla them since I'm sure that they had no choice but to tell these two. These two elves were from the capital, so I'm sure that this held quite a bit of pressure for the elders.

I calmly looked at them and said, "We did have so difficulties between us, but that was just normal since we didn't have matching personalities. It's just a difference of opinion, nothing more."

The two of them narrowed their eyes to look at , as if they didn't seem to believe .

But I just kept looking at them with that calm look on my face.

For so reason, the two elves couldn't help feeling strange since this was different from how he had acted before. For so reason, now that he was looking right at them, it was almost as if he was standing up to them.

This wasn't sothing that they felt good about since their egos had beco inflated.

So the one on the left said, "Difference in opinion?"

The one on the right said, "Is that all it was?"

I didn't say anything as I looked back at them with that sa calm look.

It was clear that there was sothing that they were implying, but I didn't fall for their bait and just waited for them to say what they wanted to say.

Seeing that I wasn't going to say anything, the one on the left said, "Do you know that Sir Apollo has gone missing?"

The one on the right added, "It's not even certain that he's still alive."

Right after they said this, they looked at my face carefully as if they were waiting to see what reaction I would have to this.

However, all they got was a stone cold look on my face that showed that I didn't know anything about this.

They just deeply knitted their brows when they saw this.

After a long mont of silence, the one on the left said, "Are you saying that you have nothing to do with this?"

The one on the right said, "Be aware that whatever you say now can and will be used against you when the ti cos."

I just calmly looked at them and said, "I really have no idea what happened to him. After I left, I've had many other things that I've had to deal with, so I have no idea what happened here."

The two elves looked at Moon as if they were trying to get her to testify against , but all she did was nod in agreent to this.

Moon had been following the entire ti, so she knew all the business that I had been taking care of.

She was the perfect alibi for .

When the two elves saw this, they deeply knitted their brows.

After all, they had expected this to go much differently, but now they were the ones that looked like fools.

After a long mont of silence, the two of them looked back at and said, "Alright, then we hope that you will rember what you have said here today."

I looked at them with a smile and said, "I think that we haven't been introduced yet. I am Zwein, a count of this kingdom."

As soon as they heard this, the two elves revealed ugly expressions.

Even if they disliked humans, they knew what it ant to be a count.

They had thought that the other side was a lowly human that they could easily deal with, but now it turned out that he was a noble of this kingdom.

While the Elven Kingdom wasn't afraid of this kingdom, it wasn't as if they would willingly cause trouble for the humans.

After all, the humans far outnumbered them and if they worked together, it would be easy for them to take care of the elves. It was just that the humans were too busy fighting each other that they hadn't done anything to the elves yet.

So they wouldn't provoke the humans for no reason.

The two of them knew that the title of count wasn't a lowly title. It was considered quite high among the humans, so this person wasn't an easy person to deal with.

Seeing the look on their faces, I revealed a faint satisfied smile.

This was the result that I had wanted to see and this was the result that made the most assured.

It was clear that they wouldn't do anything now that they knew that I was a count. Unless they wanted to start a war with the humans, these elves would give up the idea of making scapegoat.

Or…they would have other ideas…

I would take preparations against these other ideas, but I hoped that they wouldn't actually go through with it since it would be troubleso to deal with.

At the very least, I knew that they wouldn't do anything to right now.
