Outside a large mansion, two people stood outside the gates with five guards standing in front of them. "Get that shithead little master of yours out here right now, or I will slaughter my way in."
"Margret, please calm yourself…." Duglous was having a headache. He knew Margret could not control her anger. And now here she was, ready to kill, and they had yet to even talk to the man.
"I am calm. I gave them a choice, didn't I?" Margret replied with a snort, and Duglous shook his head. He decided it was best just to forget everything. He would just go with the flow.
"Look here. Do you know whose house this is!?" One of the guards yelled back.
"Isn't it just some tiny high priest? Tell Robert Elston to get his ass out here now, or I will cut everyone down on my way in. That little bastard needs to confess the things he did to my daughter!" Margret took a step forward, causing the ground to crack. The rocks near her feet began to rise in the air. Her aura was bursting out of her, causing the guards to feel as if they were being pressured by an invincible force.
"This…" The lead guard was shaking in fear. He knew if he said the wrong thing, he would lose his life. "Someone go tell the young master that he has guests."
Guards were only paid to work, not to give up their lives. There was no loyalty. Unlike the the holy knights who protect the cathedral, these were just random everyday men. They had families to go home to and only did this for a day job. Even if they did get fired, they could easily just become adventurers. "Please follow me. I will send you to the receiving room."
"That's more like it." Margret nodded and was about to step through the gate when a voice called out to her. "Margret!"
Nora arrived somewhat out of breath. "I am glad I caught you. I see that you found one of the culprits, but it is not just this man. Sandy Gliston, a C Rank adventurer, is also behind it. She has some connections to the Grande Gang. From what I know, Shizuku did enter the dungeon but never came out. A few men followed her the entire way and also entered the dungeon. I do not know what happened after. But…."
Nora turned and looked at her husband, who walked up slowly with a massive hammer on his back. "We will go deal with them. You handle that Elston guy."
Margret grinned and nodded. "Alright, I will do just that. Thanks, Nora. You too, old man."
"Tch… Still hating on me, I see. I only touched your ass once back then by accident. Nora kicked my ass for three straight days. Can't you just get over it?" Old Buldarg pulled on his beard. He really had no intention of angering Nora. He had tripped over a rock, and the thing he happened to grab to steady himself was Margret's ass. Was it his fault his race was so damn short?
"We can talk later, but for now, lead the way, Sir guard." Margret ignored Old Buldrag and walked through the gates. She did make sure to raise her hand and wave at Nora.
Nora stood there, chuckling to herself as she looked at her husband. "It seems she holds grudges for a long time."
"She was never one to let things go." Old Buldarg sighed. "Anyway, let's go talk with this Sandy person. If she doesn't talk, cast your truth magic on her."
"Don't worry, I know what to do." Nora smiled and leaned down and kissed Old Buldarg on the forehead before walking towards the guild. Her information said that Sandy was still actively taking requests, so they should be able to figure out where she went.
Inside a small room with only two couches and a table, Margret and Duglous sat staring at the guard by the door. "What the hell is taking so long? Do I need to go and get him myself?"
"Miss, please just wait. Our Young Master was in the middle of somethi…." The guard was cut off before he could finish as the table in the room exploded.
"Do you think I give a shit what he is in the middle of? Even if he was in the middle of taking a dump, I want him to suck it back up into his ass and get here now. If he doesn't, then I will destroy this entire mansion!" Margret had smashed her fist down on the table. She was two seconds away from starting a blood bath.
"I will send someone to tell him…." The guard could only sigh and leave the room.
In another part of the mansion, in a room that was dimly lit, a man sat with three girls lying naked beside him. He couldn't help but wonder if that Fallen had gotten what she deserved. While he did not mind using her as a plaything, he knew his father would not like it. He had already gotten chewed out by him once. He did not want to get yelled at again.
"Young Master…. The visitors…. They are about to destroy the mansion." A guard called out to Robert from behind the closed door.
"Damnit!" Robert couldn't risk such a thing happening, so he had no choice but to get up. "Tell the bastards I will be there…"
*Boom!*
"No need. I came to you, you little shit!"
