Chapitre 137: Crusch’s Heart Flutters a Little
Soon, Ayanokouji officially began to implement his plan.
Since in the eyes of others, Russell had most likely fled the royal capital out of fear of the crime, Ayanokouji used this as a reason to ask Crusch to leave the royal capital with a group of knights and go to investigate Russell.
His goal in doing this was to move those who might cause him trouble out of the royal capital.
Crusch offered a lot of support, but her impartial character would bring trouble. Therefore, after Ayanokouji successfully obtained the right to agency, Crusch was sent outside the royal capital.
Not only that, Ayanokouji also included Julius in the team to find Russell. Although he was Anastasia's subordinate, he was also a member of the Royal Knights. The knight's responsibility should be prioritized for now in this matter, Anastasia's power in the royal capital would be greatly reduced.
Cursch and the members of the Royal Knights were moved openly and fairly. During this period, Ayanokouji could move without any restrictions.
"Ayanokouji-sama, I will surely complete the mission satisfactorily!" Julius said respectfully, and then turned, "Crusch-sama, please take this time."
"Um, I have to trouble Julius, you and the other Knights at that time." Crusch nodded, then smiled, "Don't worry, Ayanokouji, I will definitely complete the mission! I will definitely not disappoint you!"
"I believe in you." Ayanokouji said calmly to both of them.
Seeing the united expressions of everyone, he knew that they were completely unaware of his intentions.
Russell was no longer in this world. They would never find him in their lifetime.
After a few months, they would return in shame.
Ayanokouji turned slightly and looked at Reinhard with a glance around him. He did not include Reinhard in the team that left the royal capital because the other party still played a very important role for him.
"By the way, Ayanokouji-sama, I have heard some rumors recently. Have you heard that the Great Rabbit, one of the three Mabeasts, has been eliminated by you?" At this time, Miklotov asked curiously.
It was Ayanokouji who sent someone to spread the news to the royal capital about him and Emilia killing the Great Rabbit.
"That's right." Ayanokouji nodded without any change in expression, "But it's not my credit, but Emilia-sama's credit."
"Really?"
"Doesn't that mean two of the three great Mabeasts have been destroyed by Ayanokouji-sama!?"
"Too coincidental to meet them in such a short time...Ayanokouji-sama, do you have any evidence?"
Ayanokouji had long anticipated such a situation. Perhaps no one fully believed the fact that his camp had eliminated the Great Rabbit: "Yes, we used magic weapons to record the scene during the battle, but due to the special nature of the Great Rabbit itself, we could not leave any trophies."
Soon, he handed his phone to everyone and showed the video in front of everyone, which amazed the members of the Council of Wise Men.
"Amazing..." Miklotov nodded, his eyes full of awe and respect, "But I have a question, Ayanokouji-sama, why didn't you tell the palace about killing the Great Rabbit afterwards? This is an amazing achievement!"
"Because we killed the Great Rabbit not to achieve any achievement, but to eliminate the danger to the kingdom and ensure the lives and safety of the people. This is something that must be done, not a great achievement." Ayanokouji said slowly.
And all this was a plot designed by him.
He was the first to spread the news in the royal capital, but he did not take the initiative to tell it. Instead, he let the Council of Wise Men speak first, to further enhance his image and Emilia's camp.
"It seems Crusch also thinks so." Ayanokouji turned his head.
"I think what Ayanokouji said is right!" A smile appeared on her face, and Crusch recognized Ayanokouji more and more in her heart. She thought the choice to follow him was not wrong.
This meeting soon ended, and Crusch and some members of the Royal Guard immediately began to make preparations to track down Russell.
"Ayanokouji, we are ready to leave!" Said Crusch.
"Alright, leave the investigation work inside the royal capital to me. You must pay attention to safety when acting outside." Said Ayanokouji.
In the process of getting along with Emilia and Beatrice, he learned that some attentive words with the opposite sex can further enhance trust.
"Um." After hearing those words of concern, the corner of Crusch's mouth lifted slightly, and a blush appeared on her face
Ayanokouji's ability and sense of justice were all admired by her. Besides, this man saved her from the brink of death, perhaps Crusch would have unique feelings for him in her heart.

"Crusch-sama, it seems you have someone you like, meow!"
Felix looked at Crusch with a meaningful look and said with a smile.
"No, this is just an illusion. It's not real. And it's impossible for me to have a good impression of someone like Ayanokouji."
Crusch coughed a few times and replied with a very serious expression.
"Are you so firm? But Crusch-sama will also fall in love in the future, right? Crusch-sama, what kind of person do you like?"
Felix leaned forward and asked curiously.
"Forgive me Felix, I will not be affected by this love affair until I realize my dream."
Crusch said resolutely.
"Crusch-sama is lying. When you saw Ayanokouji and Emilia express their feelings just now, you were clearly very fascinated, nya!"
Felix smiled and said, "And Crusch-sama doesn't know how to give birth to a child!"
"I-I didn't!"
Crusch wanted to pretend to be serious, but the blush on her face completely betrayed her.
She shook her head, unable to help but turn her head, and saw the illusion again. There was no doubt that she did not agree with everything Ayanokouji did in the capital. But she had no intention of stopping him at all, but she also affirmed Ayanokouji's ability.
"I remember Russell had fled in reality, but there was no progress in the investigation of the dark trade involving him."
Crusch muttered to herself, "Let's help his investigation. It will still be useful for the throne selection."
All the stories told in the illusion were true. Crusch wondered in her heart, if Ayanokouji really traveled to this world in the future, what should she do with him?
Ayanokouji was clearly not a good person.
But could he be considered a villain?

The scene changed. After Ayanokouji arranged things, he was about to leave the palace, but soon a familiar male voice came from behind him.
"Ayanokouji-sama."
Ayanokouji knew the identity of the other party, turned around and looked at him, it was Reinhard.
"Reinhard." Ayanokouji also nodded.
"I don't have time to congratulate you on your achievements. You not only eliminated the Mabeast that has plagued the kingdom for hundreds of years, but you also paid attention to what Russell did." Reinhard said respectfully.
"No, this is what I should do." Ayanokouji said calmly. He actually deliberately slowed down and pretended to meet Reinhard by chance. "Reinhard, since you are here, I have something I want to tell you."
"Please tell me."
"I exchanged ideas with Wilhelm the day before yesterday."
"Wilhelm..." Reinhard pursed his lips.
"After fulfilling his sad wish, Wilhelm also wants to make peace with you." Ayanokouji said, his eyes fixed on the man in front of him known as the strongest in the world.
His greatest strength was limited to strength, but for him, Reinhard was easier to deal with than Russell and Anastasia.
"Really?!" Reinhard's eyes widened, with a hint of surprise in his eyes
"Yes, I have talked to him about this. Although Wilhelm blamed you at that time, it was more because of the sadness of losing his wife." Ayanokouji added, "After that conversation, Wilhelm expressed his desire to make peace with you."
"So... But I still don't know how to talk to him." Reinhard's expression was a little complicated, "And my father..."
"If you can improve your relationship with Wilhelm, your relationship with your father can also improve." Ayanokouji said calmly.
Before meeting Reinhard for the first time, he had investigated his family and learned that the conflict between the Sword Saint family was not just between Reinhard and Wilhelm.
Heinkel Astrea was respected by the kingdom, was a hardworking and pure swordsman in the past, but unlike his parents, he did not have extraordinary talent. After his wife fell into a coma, his anger became rough and eccentric. He is now completely disabled. Because he is still a member of the Sword Saint family, the Kingdom still maintains the position of deputy regiment of the Royal Guard.
Ayanokouji investigated and heard that Heinkel gradually gave up on himself after being defeated by his five-year-old son. Because Reinhard inherited the Divine Protection Sword Saint. According to the information obtained previously, Heinkel didn't care about Reinhard at all. Instead, he constantly scolded him and got drunk every day.
It can be said that Heinkel is now a disgusting existence in the kingdom.
Ayanokouji analyzed Heinkel's character and found that the reason why he became like this was not only the death of the previous Sword Saint, but also jealousy of Reinhard's talent.
His mother was a Sword Saint, and his father was a Sword Demon, but Heinkel himself had no talent for swordsmanship. Even if he had worked very hard, he could only reach the level of the strongest among ordinary people, he could not compare at all, but his son had unparalleled strength.
Through this period of time, Ayanokouji became more and more convinced of his previous theory. The inequality between humans was determined even before birth.
This is clearly seen in this world. People favored by the world can obtain abilities called Divine Protection, and they are like monsters in front of ordinary people who do not have Divine Protection.
But now Ayanokouji didn't care about Heinkel. For him, only Reinhard and Wilhelm were valuable, Heinkel who had no talent and a strange personality, had no value of utilization.
If he continued to cause trouble, Ayanokouji would also have to deal with him properly.
"Please forgive me for my unauthorized actions. I prepared dinner for you and Wilhelm, Reinhard. Wilhelm has agreed to come. I don't know what your wishes are." Said Ayanokouji.
"Alright, thank you very much, Ayanokouji-sama!" Reinhard said gratefully
