After letting Luche drink a glass of water to calm her down, I leave her for a moment to go out to the carriage used to imprison the three captured “bandits” and show them to Filianess-san and her adjutants.

“That man...... is a member of the knight brigade...... They are the ones who attacked Luche!?”

Filianess-san doesn’t even bother hiding her anger. She grips her rapier handle tightly but she doesn’t want to pull her weapon out in front of Luche.

(Eros: I am just translating)

“Excuse me, please wake up~...... It is time for your crime inquiry~”

Marle-san is soft-spoken as usual as she slaps the male “bandit’s” cheek. Sigmut eventually regains his consciousness but as the first thing he sees after waking up is Marle-san and Filianess-san, he calmly closes his eyes in resignation.

“...... Kill me”

“Aa...... I really am tempted to do that. But I still want to ask you why did you attack Luche......? Second in command of the black knight brigade, Lieutenant Sigmut Yunkarls”

The dukedom’s knight brigade rank, from the top, is divided from the knight brigade leader and vice leader as the top and then below them the knights are divided into four squads namely blue, red, white, and black squad. Second in command of the black knight brigade means that this person has a thousand knights under his command.

(Eros: I will use Marshal for the leader, general for the vice leader, captain for squad head and lieutenant for second in command. I don’t really know the right translation from the Japanese for the knight brigade’s military rank)

Such a person with lofty status is actually going out personally to deal with Luche who is the princess of the dukedom. If this information got leaked out, disbanding the black knight brigade would be the least they need to worry about.

“I won’t say it twice…… kill me”

“…… For those who are wishing for death, killing them is not the correct punishment. Say it, what secret you are hiding?”

“…… I am attacking the princess because of my own interest. I don’t have anything to hide”

Well, of course, he would try to hide the mastermind behind. Having already guessed how the enemy would act, I don’t feel annoyed by Sigmut’s act. The only problem I have is finding a way to wrench the information out from this daredevil.

Well, even without using skill, anyone with a brain would know that he is lying. So it is a perfect statement to test the credibility of [Detect Lie].

---- Then lets the game begin. I will bait Sigmut to lie so I can grasp the hidden information he had ---- for example, something like this:

“What do you have on mind, Hiroto?”

I gesture Filianess-san to lean over so I can whisper something into her ear. Then I told her to ask a few questions to Sigmut.

Filianess-san nods in agreement and then looks back at Sigmut with an intimidating gaze. She then starts interrogating him with the question I suggested.

“There is someone who wishes to prevent Luche from receiving her baptism no matter what. Is that the case?”

“…… No. I attack her by my own will…...”

With this, the reason why the princess is being targeted can be concluded. But there are still many things I want to know……

“Even if it was your own personal volition, we can’t let your subordinates free. The three of you will be court-martialed according to the knight brigade law. I will make you abide by the punishment”

“…… Kill me……!”

Filianess-san puts the tip of her rapier to barely touch Sigmut’s throat who repeats that word once again. It pierces the skin and a line of red is running down quickly.
