"What's going on?

Suddenly, a roaring scream caused Clyde to open the door to his office with great force, and he asked the Kingsguard waiting in the corridor.

But the soldier just shook his head, his confusion evident even to himself.

I don't understand! We're sending them out to investigate now!"

"......, though it may have been my imagination."

King Weik muttered with a bitter look on his face.

"What is it, Lord Vike?"

"Wasn't that Hayato Hayama who screamed earlier ......?"

I'll go check on him.

I wouldn't mind if something happened to Hayato Hayama, but I wouldn't be happy if he caused trouble in the palace again.

Sam did not wait for Clyde and the others to reply, but ran toward the medical office.

"...... what the hell is this?"

On the way to the infirmary, soldiers were lying in the corridor.

Some of them had even died.

"......What's going on?"

It is reasonable to assume that someone has invaded the palace, but I can't think of anyone who would do such a thing.

(Or, perhaps, the people of Najaria have just now made their move? But the scream is Hayato Hayama. Is that the one you're after?)

As I tried to avoid the fallen soldiers and head for the infirmary,

"Mr. Scheidt!"

"My Lady, what are you doing here?"

Kaoruko Kirishima called out to me from behind.

"I heard Yuto's screams, so I thought maybe the women had come for revenge."

"Is that so? But this place can be dangerous. Please go back to your room and lock the door as soon as possible.

Sam hurriedly offers advice.

He decided that it was dangerous for Kaoruko to be here as long as she did not know who the enemy was.

"Oops, that's not going to happen.

A voice echoed from inside the infirmary, contradicting Sam's words.

Sam is alarmed and hides behind Kaoruko to protect her.

A man in his thirties with a good physique appeared from the doctor's office.

He is dressed in simple white clothes and wears a lot of mismatched gold work on his arms and legs. His ears and nose were pierced, and his appearance was not elegant.

In the man's hands was Hayato Hayama, who looked as if he were unconscious or slumped over.

He was being dragged by his hair, and there was a painful gnawing mark around his left eye, and his eyeball was missing.

"You ate his eye, didn't you?

It was easy for Sam to make that judgment.

The man's mouth was stained bright red.

The man smiled and wiped his mouth with the hand that was not holding Yuto's hair, as if he had noticed Sam's gaze.

"Oops, my bad. I'm not very good at manners.

"That's not what I'm talking about. What's the point of being a cannibal if you don't know the rules? No, it doesn't matter. How did the people of Najaria get into the palace?

"Oh, yeah, how do you know I'm a Najarian?"

You're the only people on the continent who eat people.

"Ha-ha-ha, no doubt about it!"

Sam's guess was confirmed by the man himself.

It is unknown how he got into the palace, but he is a citizen of Najaria, and he ate Hayato Hayama's left eye.

I knew this in my knowledge, but when I was confronted with a real cannibal like this, I could feel a disgusting sweat break out on my face.

It looks human, but it is as if there is another, more different creature in front of me.

Behind Sam's back, "...... what? Kaoruko looked blue, saying, "Cannibalism is such a thing.

"I ask you again, how did you sneak into the palace?

"Uh, can I tell you this? Well, okay. The point is, there are still traitors in this country who will cooperate with us. I don't like traitors. I'd kill them as soon as I find them."

"Don't talk so high and mighty when you're using that traitor. So why did you eat it?

"Oh? Oh, you mean this guy? I'm a collector of evil eyes.

"A collector?"

"Oh. I'm a sucker for a magic eye. So when I find someone who has a magic eye, I take one eye and keep the other.

"It's beyond comprehension. What's the use of doing that?"

If you eat it, there's a chance you'll get a magic eye. Didn't you know that?

"No, that's not possible!"

The reply was so ridiculous that Sam raised his voice.

But the man did not seem to mind.

"That's the reason why I've gotten the magic eye in the past," he said, "I've eaten it before. But, alas, this time it was not enough. Well, it was tasty with a certain amount of magic power, but it's always frustrating when you can't get a magic eye.

"That's crazy. And now that you've eaten his magic eye you have no more use for it. I don't care if he takes that piece of shit with him.

You don't need scraps.

Just leave it. What use is such a piece of shit?

He's from another world, right?

What then?

"Our chief is very interested in other worlds. So I thought I'd get some information from him. As far as I'm concerned, all I need is a magic eye, but I'm still an obedient Najarian warrior. I have to do what the chief says.

Sam dared to continue the conversation.

He is trying to get more information out of the people of Najaria.

The man is also giving me some information, though I am not sure if he understands Sam's intentions or not.

If possible, we would like to capture this man, not beat him.

But it was difficult for Sam to fight alone with Kaoruko at his back.

"Oh, that's right. There's another woman from another world who's called a saint, isn't there? You can take her home with you."

"--Hi."

Behind Sam's back, Kaoruko let out a small, frightened scream.

Kaoruko's reaction made the man look convinced of something.

"She's the saint, isn't she? I'm so lucky. I found two of the people I wanted. It would be ideal if I could bring them both home. I want to eat one of them together. It's not every day you get a chance to eat otherworldly meat. I hear they're exceptionally talented in magic and spells. I'm sure they'll give us strength."

"You guys, you're making me sick."

"Hey, hey, Mr. Scheidt, what's with these people, eating is a metaphor, right? Right?"

Sam shook his head as Kaoruko turned pale and trembled behind him.

"I'm sorry, but these guys really do eat people. Please don't ever come out from behind me, saint!"

"Uh-huh."

"By the way. What's your problem?

"Samuel Scheidt. He's a court wizard of the land. I will not tolerate any more disorder in my court."

"Hey, hey, hey! You're Samuel Scheidt!"

The Najarian man's eyes lit up when Sam said his name.
