Chapter 54 – The uncouth lady observes the situation

As I continued my rescue efforts, I found Lord Nazel in the city. In addition, Tony is there too.

When I landed on the ground, Lord Nazel rushed up to me with an impatient look on his face.

"Agnes, what are you doing? It's not safe out there."

"I was carrying the injured to the mansion. I was the only one who could ride the wyvern, so...... Torre could only ride pegasi. Lord Nazel you...... killed the magical beasts, right?"

Behind them, a large magical beast is lying on the ground.

It resembled a tiger in appearance and had small feathers on its back.

"I know Agnes is doing her best, thank you. But it's dangerous, so you should go back to the mansion. Please."

"What are you going to do now, Lord Nazel?"

"I'm going to ......."

Then Lord Nazel briefly told me that another magical beast had entered the city.

That magical beast is less dangerous, but according to Tony, it is heading straight for the lord's mansion.

"Then we should hurry. Please get on Jenni."

With Lord Nazel and Tony on the back of Jenni, I take off into the night sky.

The fires burning in the city were dying down, and gradually the area grew darker.

When we reached the garden, Tony, who knew about the magical beasts, opened his mouth.

"Earlier, I told Lord Nazelbert that the magical beast in question was kept by the lord. That beast was the cause of the former lord's death."

"What?"

I was so surprised to hear this shocking story that I raised my voice.

The last lord was killed by a magical beast.

But I was surprised to hear that he was killed by his beast.

"There was an old stable at the back of the yard."

It was dark and dank, and there were bloodstains all over the place.

"I wonder if they kept the beast there."

When we built the new stables for Jeni, we tore down the old ones.

"That one was a rare breed of highly intelligent magical beast that had been kept in the lord's house for generations. That guy understood all human languages and even understood hierarchical relationships and positions. My parents worked for the former lord, and I helped raise the beast myself......, so I know about him. I also know that he is by nature a gentle soul."

However, it seems that the former lord abused rare magical beasts to relieve his frustration.

Tony and his parents defended such a magical beast and were almost killed by the lord.......

"The magical beast killed the lord to protect us. Then we let him escape into the woods and hid the whole affair. We didn't expect this to happen."

Lord Nazel spoke to Tony, who was looking somber.

"So why is this magical beast heading for the lord's mansion?"

"He wants to kill the lord. He hates the lord. He must have sensed the presence of a new human being living in the mansion,......, and the resentment he normally suppresses with his reason must have gotten out of control with the new moon."

He was captured by a previous lord, spent time in a small, dark stable, and was mistreated by the previous lord.

The resentment must run deep.

"Well, I'll deal with it. Agnes, move to a safe place."

I am worried about Lord Nazel, but I understand that he would be slowed down by my presence.

So I decided to send Jenni back to the stables, and I would watch the outside from inside the stables.

I opened a small window and secretly watched Lord Nazel. Jenni also came to the window.

After a while, a loud thud echoed through the yard. A huge horse with eight legs appeared. The thud sounded like a horse jumping over a fence.......

The garden had been lit by a bonfire, so the area could be seen even at night.

"Good thing it wasn't where the field was."

Tony says something and runs up to the magical beast. He seems to be trying to persuade it.

Lord Nazel tried to stop him, but Tony ignored him and touched the magical beast.

"I can't hear them very well because they're a little far away. But I think it's dangerous......."

"Gurulu......"

Jenni growled softly next to me as if replying.

As expected, the rampaging magical beast neighs loudly and swings its legs up toward Tony.......

"Oh my God, it's going to trample him down!"

Then Lord Nazel quickly stepped forward to protect Tony. The magical beast's foot hit Lord Nazel and bounced off him.

I was about to jump out of my skin, but......

"Oh, Lord Nazel. Did you get up normally? He restrained the magical beast with a magic plant."

Lord Nazel seemed to be relaxed and easily caught the magical beast. Tony seems to be safe.

After making sure it was safe, I walked out of Jenni's stables.

I also strengthen the plant that restrained the magical beast.

"Agnes, you came out?"

"It looked like the situation was fine. Lord Nazel, are you hurt?"

"Yes...... somehow I'm feeling fine"

Lord Nazel hugs me and squeezes me, and Tony talks to the restrained magical beast all the time.

"This man is not like any lord I've ever known! He won't hurt you! It's all right now!"

The horse, which has lost all sense of reason, is still rampaging, but his condition seems to be calming down as the night goes on.

I had no time to spare between helping people and watching over the extermination of the magical beast, but before I noticed the sky was gradually becoming lighter and lighter. Dawn was approaching.

Tony, I'll make a cage for the magical beast, and you can take a short rest in the shelter.

Lord Nazel puts up a fence around the magical beast and I reinforce it.

Inside the fence, which was covered to the ceiling like a cavalry stable, Lord Nazel released the magical beast.

"Thank you....... Lord Nazelbert. Let me tell you more about it later."

"Yes, okay."

After finishing everything, Lord Nazel caught me wandering around and took me to the mansion.

Curious Jenni peeked his cobalt blue eyes out of the stable window and gazed at us happily.
