Chapter 56
Village 51:Lies and rebellion
It's me,narrator-san.
It's been 2 days since Souta came to prison,
Now,it's night time.
In the kitchen of tower 6,
The chef,Kanya Kentucky,is resting in his office.
He heard a knock on the door,
He shouted furiously,
"Shut up!I'm sleeping!"
"Mind your words,chef.The king is here."
The king!
He quickly got up,and opened the door.
"My lord,what are you doing here?"
"I'm here for the execution."
"But,there's still 8 days left."
"Do you really think i will keep my promise."
"What."
"I did it to 'protect' my people."
"But…"
"But!I lied,so 2 days later,i'll exercute him."
"Then,why are you here today?"
The king,took out a paper,and gave it to Kanya.
It was a painting of a female prisoner.
"I'm a interested in this women,and i would want some time alone with her."
"But it's against the rule."
"I am the rule."
Kanya is shock.
He,who respect the king,
Cannot believe what the king is saying.
He broke his promise,
His trying to sleep with another women.
Now,he have loss all hope on the king.
He knew the previous king very well.
He was wise,helpful and kind.
But after his death,and a new king rises,
The amount of prisoner increased.
From helping the poor,
Too walking near the palace.
He believed that most prisoner did nothing wrong,
Which is why he requested to be the only warden in tower 6.
Tower 6
Since he have the 'Lie detection' skill,
He only allow those who were accuse into tower 6.
Right before leaving,
The king pa.s.sed a piece of paper to him.
"This is the new sentence."
Kanya opened the paper,and was shock.
All the male prisoner will be executed,while the female prisoners will be sold as slaves.
Kanya have tolerated the new king for a long time.
Now,he doesn't want to obey him anymore.
He decided to take a stroll in the tower,
He doesn't care about the prisoners in the othe towers,
But,the prisoners in tower 6 are all innocent.
As he walk along the corridor,
All the prisoners greeted him with smile on their face.
Despite him torturing them with training,
His actually helping them.
As he walk closer to Souta's room,
He heard their conversation.
"Ueki-san,here's the map."
"Great."
"Found it?"
"Umm.Here will be a great place to dig out."
Breakout!
Kanya,being a soldier,wants to stop them.
But after remembering what the king is going to do,
He got an idea.
He opened the door,and entered.
When the four people in the room saw him,
Everyone have a different reaction.
Ueki's scared and hide under the bed,
Robin pretend nothing have happened,
s.h.i.+nn…is still asleep,
Souta,quickly hide the map and paper.
"Don't worry.I'm won't do anything."
"Ee?"
He took out the paper the king gave him,and show it to them.
"This b.a.s.t.a.r.d."
"a.s.shole!"
"I'm going to help you escape."
"What's the condition?"
"I want you,to bring everyone in tower 6 to escape as well."
"But,what you going to do?"
"I'll kill the king."
