Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure

Chapter 272 Strange Proposition



Seeing that I was becoming serious, the duke also revealed a serious look and said, "We have him in our dungeons and we have stabilized his conditions, though it was hard since it was our first time treating a demon."

The demons had different body structures from humans, so it had been hard for the duke's private doctors to treat their demon prisoner.

It could even be considered a miracle that he survived at all.

But since they had treated him, the demon had remained silent.

The demon had been conscious, but he had completely withdrawn into his mind and didn't react no matter what anyone said to him.

The duke had tried using his interrogators to get some information from the demon, but he wasn't able to get anything out of him.

But it would be different for Shadow Garden since this was what they specialized in in the first place.

Hearing this, I gave a simple nod before turning to Shaka to ask, "What happened to the demons from before that we caught?"

Shaka looked around at the knights and they all couldn't help taking a step back at this, but he still said, "They've already been taken care of."

I gave another simple nod in response since it wasn't hard to figure out what he meant by taken care of. For a human kingdom like this, it was the most simple way of dealing with demons who were trying to invade them.

So I said, "Then can you call for someone to pick up this demon as well?"

This time, it was Shaka's turn to give a simple nod.

With that, I turned back to the duke and said, "Your grace, are you alright with those arrangements?"

The duke didn't hesitate to nod in response.

This was already the best result for him.

He had already taken care of the threat to his city and at the same time, he had provided help to the Shadow Garden agents that had been sent to investigate.

While there would be a bit of backlash because of him neglecting this problem for so long, he would still have the merit of acting up to solve it and even helping in subduing a demon.

So there was no doubt that he would be rewarded by the king once they reported this in.

As for getting more than this, the duke wasn't greedy. He knew that if he tried for more than this, he would just be bringing trouble to his own door.

Since the duke was so cooperative, that actually helped them very much.

There was no need for Shaka and me to personally escort the demon, there were other agents from Shadow Garden for this. So all that was left was for Shaka to contact them and they would come to get the demon.

With this, I said, "Your grace, thank you for your assistance and cooperation. I hope that we will have a chance to meet again."

Seeing that he was about to leave, the duke couldn't help feeling a bit of regret.

After all, he still wanted to build a relationship with these two from the Shadow Garden.

If he could, it could be said that he would be on the road to success.

Then as if he had suddenly thought of something, the duke said, "Oh, that's right, there was something else that I had forgotten to mention."

At this, both Shaka and I stopped and turned to look at the duke, waiting to see what he had to say.

The duke didn't keep us in suspense as he said, "There was someone else who was captured after the incident."

Both Shaka and I looked at the duke with a confused look since we didn't expect this, but then we understood what the duke meant when he said his next words.

"It's one of my advisors." The duke said in a heavy voice.

As I had already expected, one of the advisors of the duke was involved in this matter. After all, it was impossible to hide everything that had happened in those villages unless there was someone covering it all up.

But I had completely forgotten about this matter since the matter of the demon and the undead had already been solved.

Now that the duke had taken the initiative to bring this up, naturally we also needed to handle this.

I looked at Shaka and said, "Can we take him with us as well?"

Shaka gave a nod in response to this.

Of course it wasn't a problem to take this advisor in with the demon since this was someone that had colluded with the demon to create that horde of undead. There was no doubt that he was connected to the demons in some way or another.

If he had to guess, it was most likely that this advisor was part of the demon worshipers.

So the amount of information that they could get from him definitely wouldn't be small.

It was just a simple line added in his message to bring him along as well.

Since the duke had also mentioned this to us, I had no choice but to thank him for this information.

But before I could say anything, the duke suddenly said, "Your lordship, I've heard that you have a beautiful wife, but have you ever considered having a concubine?"

The moment that I heard this, I couldn't help revealing a shocked and confused look.

Why was the duke suddenly asking me this?

The duke didn't mind the look on my face and continued, "If you have, then have you considered my daughter?"

There was only silence that followed after he said this.

I could only look at the duke in shock and disbelief as he said this, but it wasn't just me who felt this way.

Everyone in the room looked at the duke in the same way because…no one would have thought that he would ask something like this all of a sudden.
