Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure

Chapter 479 The Duke’s Visit (20)



As soon as this one elf said this, all of the other elves immediately glared at him.

Then as if there was a domino effect, they all started to crumble.

After all, once one person gave the information that they had, then the rest of them would lose this chance.

In the end, it was a large mess as they all tried to be the one that offered the information.

Though, not a single one of them actually said anything.

To settle them, I had no choice but to slam Durand down into the ground so that they would be quiet.

Once they fell silent, I said, "I will choose one of you to give me the information that I want. If I don't get the information that I want, I'll move on to the next person."

All of them looked at each other before looking like they wanted to volunteer.

But I already knew that this would happen, so I raised my sword again and said in a threatening voice, "I will be the one that picks who speaks first."

All of them fell silent after they heard this, but they still had looks in their eyes like they didn't want to give up.

It was their lives after all…no one was willing to just die without doing anything.

After they calmed down, I put Durand down and said, "Those that have information will say 'yes'. I will pick from the ones that speak up and that person will tell me what they know."

The elves revealed unhappy looks when they heard this.

This didn't give them any chance of increasing their chance of survival. It was leaving everything in this human's hands, which wasn't something that they could be happy about.

But there was nothing that they could do.

After all, they were completely tied up.

Once I was finished, I waited to see how they would react.

However, the elves didn't say anything as if they were waiting for something.

It was only after a minute of silence that they finally realized something and one of them said, "Yes."

As soon as they said this, I pointed at that elf and said, "Alright, it's you then."

The other elves revealed looks of shock and regret when they heard this.

There were some that wanted to say something, but I put my hand on Durand's hilt once more and they closed their mouths.

In the face of Durand, there was nothing that they could say.

The knights helped that elf up before bringing him forward with me.

This was the elf that had been chosen as the representative of the other elves, so I was surprised that he would choose to betray the rest of them like this.

But in the end, it seemed that his own life was more important than anything else as he gave me all the information that I needed.

As we had expected, they were a group that followed the two elves from the capital.

They had been left outside of the village just in case they needed to take care of the village.

Moon deeply knitted her brows when she heard this.

The goal of their trip was…to scout out the elven village and see if they could find anything related to Apollo. But the way that they had arranged this…it was clear that they suspected the village to have something to do with this.

No, put it more simply…they suspected that Moon had something to do with this.

Anyone that knew Apollo would have known about their engagement, so the fact that Apollo disappeared put suspicion on her as his fiancee…or former fiancee.

So they were here to take care of the village if there was a need for it.

But no one at the village really knew what happened to Apollo.

They just knew that he left and never came back. They had assumed that he had gone to the capital to meet his father, or gone on an adventure somewhere else, they never thought that he had disappeared like this.

By the end of it, the elf admitted that they were planning on turning me into a scapegoat for all of this.

They were here to kill me so that I could be blamed for this.

After all, dead men tell no tales.

Once he was done telling me everything, the elf said with a sigh, "I've already told you everything. Can you let me go now?"

I didn't look at this elf as I turned to look back at the other elves.

I left this elf to the knights while heading back towards that group of elves who had depressed looks on their faces.

When they saw me coming over, all of them braced themselves.

After all, they thought that I was coming over to kill them all.

But to their surprise, I said, "Is there anyone else who wants to give me information?"

There was a few seconds of silence as they were shocked by what I said before all of them started fighting to be the one chosen.

I picked a few of the elves randomly and brought them away to talk to them.

When it was all over, we confirmed that what the first elf had said was true and that there was nothing else that they had for us.

At that, I had the elves all gathered in one place again.

The elves were all confused when this happened and many of them wondered what would happen to them.

Once they were all gathered, I looked at the knights and simply said, "You can take care of them now."

The elves were all shocked when they heard this, but the ones that had given us information quickly said, "You said that you would let us go! You're breaking your promise!"

I just calmly looked at them and said, "I said that it depended on the information that you gave me." My eyes turned cold as I said, "And the information that you gave me wasn't worth your lives."

The elves just stared at me in shock when they heard this.
