Contrary to my concern, Kyle didn’t kill anyone.

When I saw the blade of the knife flash so menacingly, I really thought he was going to kill those three people, but instead he just subdued the thieves.

No, to be honest, it’s a bit lacking to say subdued.

― Eek [ H-hello? ]

Kyle actually overpowered the three guys easily. Two of them fainted in an instant and the last one stood trembling like an aspen tree.

As for the last man, it wasn’t that Kyle couldn’t knock him out, he just controlled his strength, and kept throwing punches, seemingly venting his anger.

“Who sent you?”

Kyle asked while placing the knife near the thief’s neck.

“If you tell me the truth, then your life will be spared.”

“U-uh, w-we were just l-looking for something worth some money, t-that’s all!”

“Something you can sell?”

It wasn’t completely wrong, but it was a bit of a reach.

Didn’t you say you were going to kidnap or kill the woman hidden by him. Now, just because you’re in front of Kyle, you became a weak person. Obviously if the person you’re in front of was a weak person, you guys wouldn’t hesitate to rob.

Not to mention, these insignificant guys didn’t even have a plan and were just impulsively taking stuff. Compared to other nobles, the study of the Northern Grand Duke is not heavily guarded, so it would have been easy to enter.

“No one told you to kidnap the demonic beast?”

Kyle said grimly.

“This is the last question.”

“T-that, u-hm, i-it.”

The trembling thief somehow raised his head and looked me in the eye. Why? What? Why are you looking at me you hamster kidnapper!

“It was because of the demonic beast.”

(*//basically the thief is saying they were trying to take out Soohyun out of the cage, because Soohyun manipulated them.)

That’s right, you went into this study thinking you’d find a woman who was hidden by the duke, but instead you found me, an ordinary hamster eating almonds, you must be embarrassed.

Kyle’s gaze quickly scanned the study. Some of the papers related to the Blake’s estate administration were disorganized on top of the desk, along with a few macadamia… My snacks.

Kyle raised his sword roughly and unevenly, making the thief nervous at the fact that the sword would cut his throat at any moment.

“That, t-that, Grand Duke-”

Thump.

The masked man who still standing up until a second ago, collapsed to the floor. The way he fell in front of me, shocked me into jumping away and causing me to be stuck at the corner of the house.

You scared me to death. Why would you fall right in front of me! You even made eye contact while collapsing!

“Cashew Nut.”

Kyle reached into the hamster house and lifted me carefully.

“Are you alright? You must have been very surprised.”

― Eek… [ Listen here.. ]

“Don’t worry now, the festival is just around the corner and these people didn’t seem like trained assassins, so I’ll just lock them in the underground prison instead of killing them. As for the guests from the Imperial City…”
