Isekai.. The Legend of Supreme Magus Beginning (Isekai.. Legend of the Supreme Magus Begins)
112

When entering the city. Argus and the others could see the gloom in the city, they looked lethargic and uninspired..

"Let's find an inn first before we figure out what really happened.. " Say Argus

"Emmm.. That's a good idea.. " Said Roland.

While others just come along, especially Wilona who has since seen what Argus can do before. He always kept quiet and followed them without saying much more..

After that they choose an inn that has a bar in it. They deliberately choose it even though it is noisy but there is the easiest place to get information..

After reserving the room, the women went into their rooms while Argus and Roland sat in the bar.

They began to listen to the conversation of everyone who ate and drank there, and from there they understood a few things..

First there are many ship accidents in the middle of the sea that are suspected to be done by sea monsters.

Second, in addition to sea monsters are also suspected there are some pirates who lurk around the waterway.

The three seemed to be marquez currently in a sick mania and the one taking over was his brother who was a Viscount..

And the fourth.. All the policies that were carried out in this port city seemed to come from the idea of the Viscount itself..

And after hearing all that finally Argus and Roland went into the room to talk more.

"So what now..?? " Task Argus.

"For points one and two, it's not to be confused.. Because either sea monsters or pirates are an ever-present threat.. " Said Roland.

"So I don't think it's a cause or a reason for trouble right now.. "

"For the third point, if there is indeed a problem with Marquez's health, then it should be reported to the palace.. And then the royal side will appoint someone to replace the marquez until he can take over again.. "

"But there's no such report here that I know of.. So there must be a problem with this.. "

"And I think it has to do with Point Four.. Rumors about all the tax increase policies related to the Viscount.. "

"It could be that all of this is the Viscount's reset, because suddenly he took over Marquez's position while there was no such policy from the Kingdom..

And all those hikes and rules were there after he replaced marquez.. "

"Then what if we just go straight to Marquez's place and take care of everything..?? " Task Argus.

"No.. We don't have any solid evidence of that.. " Said Roland.

"Tumben you're thinking straight..?? " Said Argus.

"Help.. I've been fed many books by the old man, if I'm still the same. There's something I can cross off the family list.. " Said Roland.

"You're afraid of scribbling off the family list or you have another purpose for doing this..?? " Task Argus.

"What purpose..?? " Ask Roland.

"Yes like to make you able to get a woman one of them.. I heard you had someone you liked in Raika.. " Said Argus.

"Where is.. I just want to be someone who deserves to be the next king.. " Said Roland.

"Yes although it's actually another reason, so I can be proud in front of her later.. Hehee.. "

"Haha.. Ok ok.. " Said Argus.

"All right now I'll ask.. We're gonna finish this my way or yours..?? "

"Let's finish it my way first, if it doesn't work then use your way.. " Said Roland.

"I want to prove that I'm not stupid like the old man used to say..

I've only been lazy to use my brain all this time.. "

"alright.. So how's your plan.. ?? " Task Argus.

"Let me think for a second.. " Said Roland. Then he thought about what he would do next.

"All right, I got an idea.. We'll do it like this.. .... "

The next day at Marquez's residence..

"Master.. There are still many people who have not paid taxes. They objected to the tax increase being too high.. " Say one report the tax withdrawal results to someone sitting holding a wine glass in his hand..

"Say.. If they can't pay taxes within a week, they'll be arrested and given slave seals.. " Say the man sitting in the chair in front of him.

It was a thin man and was seen wearing a lot of jewelry on his body, even his teeth were also some in the gold layer..

He is the Viscount of this city. His name was viscount Galak.

"But Sir.. The amount is too much, and the taxes you set are too high.. Aren't you going to lower it a little so they can pay for it..?? " Say the person reporting the tax returns.

"No way..!! It is the decision of the Kingdom to deal with the problems that are happening. So if they can't pay for it, they will become slaves..!! And it was decided..!! " Shouted that ferocious Viscount.

The soldier who reported the tax squeezed his hands in annoyance, yet he did not dare to say so..

"Good.. " After saying that he immediately turned around leaving the room..

"Hehh.. Lowering taxes..?? Truth be told, poor people are useless.. " Strong Saying..

After a while someone knocked on the door of the room.

"What's up..?? " Instead.

"Report sir.. Outside there is someone who wants to take a boat that is prepared for members of the previous work.. " Say that guy.

"Boat for working members..?? " The Viscount Gumam.

"Dam.. Has he come..?? Shouldn't there still be a few more days until he's here..?? "

"Ehh.. Where is that guy..?? " Task Viscount Galak.

"The man is under the master.. " Say that guy.

"Tell him if the boat has any damage, so it's still fixed now.. " Say Viscount.

"Good sir. " Say that guy. Then he turned and left.

"Why did it come so fast..?? Damnit.. They still haven't returned, I have to buy another day or two.. " Said Viscount..

After a while later, the person who had previously reported it returned to the room again.

"What else is it..?? " Task the Viscount.

"Sorry sir.. I've said as you ordered, but the man says he wants to see you.. " Say that guy.

"Say I'm busy right now.. " Say Viscount.

"I've already said that, but the person still wants to meet you.. "Speak that guy.

" The troublesome person.. Then let him come, I want to know what he's going to say.. "Ucap Viscount's.

" I just need to say it like before, and if he doesn't believe me.. Let it.. "Murmur viscount.

" anyways.. Who's he.. He is just a messenger.. "

After a while the man who had previously come with a man and two women..

"Please.. I'm going out.. " Say the person who previously reported it.

"So what do you guys want to take the ship..?? " Task the Viscount.

"I told you the ship was damaged, so leave you need to wait for repairs first. I'm busy right now. "

"Busy..?? With wine and food in front of you..?? " Tell the man who just arrived.

"Take care of your words.. Don't you know who you're talking to..?? " Say the Viscount.

"Who is it with..?? " Say the man while opening his head cover to reveal his face.

"You..? You..?? You..?? Prince..?! " Shouted the Viscount in shock.

"Yes..!! Now tell me who I'm talking to..?? " Put word Roland.

"I'm sorry, prince.. I don't know it's you.. " Say the viscount while running and prostrating in front of the prince.

"Even if you know why..?? You said the ship was damaged..?? It was a ship that the kingdom prepared as a gift.. And it was just created how it can be damaged..??!! " Shouted prince.

At first he only wanted to use this excuse to meet with the Viscount, and when he had met he would try to find out about the tax increase and all the prices here..

But when he heard the ship for Argus was broken, he was furious.. Because he knows what the ship means. Argus had already helped a lot and he only wanted to ship alone, it made Roland feel the kingdom was still indebted to him..

But now he heard it was broken..?? How he's not angry..

"That's.. That's.. " The viscount was at a loss to answer what, but suddenly someone entered the room..

"Hi Galak.. What happened to the pirate..?? Didn't you say they wouldn't attack us..? Why are they still robbing us..?? " Say the person who just entered, he did not pay attention to the condition at that time and immediately shouted as soon as he entered.

Roland and the others frowned when they heard that person's words.

"What did your words mean just now..??! " Ask Roland.

Just this time the person saw who was there and noticed a slightly strange state where the Viscount seemed to be sitting on the floor in front of that person.

"You..?? Prince..?? I'm sorry prince.. " Say that guy.

"Tell me what does it mean that this guy can manage those pirates..?? Tell me the truth or I will kill you now..!! " Shouted Roland who was getting angry.

"Ehh that. That's.. The Viscount said that he could arrange our security from the pirates as he leased the luxury ship to us earlier.. " Say that guy.

"But it turned out that when we were in the Red Sea robbed us, and said it was Viscount's business and they were still short of money so they robbed us.. "

"What does this mean..!! Tell the truth..!! " Said Roland.

"That's.. That's.. " The viscount was speechless this time.

Meanwhile, somewhere else..

At this time Argus, Lisa and Eve left together while Roland, Olivia and Wilona went elsewhere..

Argus who came to the port saw that everything seemed to be no activity such as loading and unloading or ships that would sail..

Argus tried asking there, and as a result they were afraid of sea monsters and pirates..

And it is said that the messengers from the Kingdom are currently sailing trying to conquer the monster.

But they were hesitant because their appearance did not reflect the conquest at all..

Then at that moment suddenly a ship came from the ocean and pulled over at the port.

"Help.. Isn't that the ship that's going to do the conquest..?? Did they fail..?? " Say the fisherman there..

"Of course it failed.. League only their performances..?? They looked more like nobles going on vacation than doing conquests.. " Add others

"Is that the ship you said before..?? " Task Argus.

"True, it's them.. " Say the fisherman.

"Masters.. Isn't it the logo and the sign on the ship..?? " Said Lisa.

"Yes.. Just like you think.. " Said Argus.

"Forgetit.. Let's go back.. "

"Dad..!! Didn't we get on the boat..?? " Task Eve.

"not now.. You see, baby, our ship is wrecked. So we need to fix it.. " Say Argus

Then Argus, Eve and Lisa left.

"Masters.. What's going on..??" Ask Lisa.

"It looks like there's a problem with that viscount.. " Said Argus.

"Then is it fine that we don't go with Prince Roland and the others..?? " Task Lisa.

"No problem.. Anyways.. Who would dare to him..?? " Said Argus.

"Because he has his own plan.. "

"But what exactly is the prince planning..?? " Task Lisa.

"Plan..?? Haha.. Forget it, don't get your hopes up with that muscle brain..

The plan he said was not really a plan at all, he would just come to Marquez's residence and try to meet his deg.. " Said Argus.

"He just borrowed a ship-taking letter from me and tried to meet Marquez or the Viscount there with my identity alone.. "

"After that he will ask why there is a tax benefit here..

Hihhh... Forget it, he did something troublesome.. If I come along, I can instantly get him to talk without much effort.. "

"Why doesn't the prince just use his name..?? Isn't that easier..?? " Task Lisa.

"He said he didn't want to lose any evidence.. But why should he care..?? As long as he was sure he could punish him directly.. " Said Argus.

"Forget that.. We'll just follow them.. We'll get the answer later there.. "
