The Exiled First-born of the Noble House. Rising to the Top With the Worthless Skill [Null Poison]

What Happened Afterwards

Sitting back down on the bed, I continued to do maintenance on the Vendetattein while I waited, as a few minutes had passed since Alexandra left when the door of the room was swung open once again.

“Chris! You’re finally up!”

With a joyful voice, Ralf entered the room.
Behind him Esta was also there.

I figured they would have returned to Isabelle’s home but, considering how fast they showed up, they were also probably staying here.

“Yeah.
Sorry for making you two worry.”

“Nah, we weren’t worried or anything! It’s not like you had any injuries, and the old man healer also said that you just collapsed from exhaustion that’s all after all!”

“But he also said that you did exert your muscles a bit too much and may have damaged them, so now that you’re awake, do you feel anything wrong with your body?”

“I mean, yeah, my body does feel a bit sluggish but otherwise, I feel perfectly fine……..Speaking of, just how long have I been asleep?”

I just decided by myself that I had only slept for about a day but I did end up using both [Ability Unleashed] as well as [Mad Warrior], and then I even further forced myself to fight that executive, Prowse as well.

And if we’re going by past cases, I wouldn’t be surprised if they told me that I had been sleeping for 3 days or something either.

“Nah, not much time has passed actually! You collapsed yesterday afternoon, and right now it’s early morning of the next day!”

“Is that so.
I had slept a lot longer when I was in Edestor, so I thought I may have slept a lot longer this time too but, good to hear that that’s not the case this time.”

“Well, it may also be thanks to the skilled healer that Charlotte-san prepared for us.
Apparently he is the royal family’s personal healer and is known to be extremely skilled, or so I heard from Alexandra-san.”

Huh, Charlotte even arranged for a good healer for us it seems.

If he really was the royal family’s personal healer, no wonder my recovery was also much faster.

“I guess I’ll have to thank Charlotte for that afterwards………there’s more I want to ask however, do you mind?”

“Of course! I assume you wanna know what happened after you went out cold?”

“Wow, a rare case where Ralf’s guess is correct? Are you really the real one?”

“Hey, when am I not right huh!? Anyways, let me tell you—–“

And then, Ralf and Esta began to inform me on the events that followed after I fell asleep.

Since I had taken down Milworc as well as two of their executives, they didn’t have much problem subjugating the rest of buildings without much trouble.

More than half of [Under Eye]’s members had died, and those that were captured had been imprisoned by the royal knights and were currently being interrogated.

I had already heard of the damages incurred by the knights from Alexandra, plus as I could see, Mielle, Ralf and Esta were all perfectly safe and sound.

Since our side technically also had a bunch of deaths, we couldn’t shout it from the rooftops but, it was very clear that this battle with [Under Eye] had ended with our complete victory.

But it seemed that the damage caused by [Under eye] was larger than expected, as when they investigated the basements of the buildings, they also found multiple captured people as well as a bunch of corpses with their internal organs taken out, and in another building they even found large amounts of illegal drugs that they were smuggling inside the capital.

“I see.
Looks like a lot things were found afterwards but, there wasn’t any big incident per se.”

“All thanks to you putting your life on the line, Chris! Well, the knights that went to deal with the aftermath of whatever you did seemed to look very miserable though.”

“I don’t recall much but, I did use that skill and went on a full rampage after all.  I feel sorry for the knights who had deal with the corpses but, I hope they realize that they all were alive only because of what I did there.”

“Well, thanks to everything that happened yesterday, the black market got blockaded entirely it seems but……..today, it seems to be back to normal already again.”

The battle that occurred was quite large scale and there were a lot of casualties, and yet, they had already returned to their daily lives.

As expected of the lawless zone I suppose.
I was honestly left feeling a bit impressed.

“Thanks for all the reports.
I more or less have an idea of what all happened while I was asleep.
Did Charlotte contact you to talk about what we’ll be doing next?”

“Just that we’ll talk again in three days at the [Lemon Kid] again.
Until then, keep your heads down and don’t attract attention—–is what she said.”

“Basically rest for the next 3 days eh? Well, that was the plan anyway.
We’ll take it easy until the next meeting.
You guys must be tired as well right?”

“I mean yeah, but more than that, I’m getting worried about Snow as well! I know Chris you can’t move about right now so should I go and check up on the little guy?”

Snow eh…….

I had ordered it to standby inside the Peixa forest, so I was a bit worried for it as well.

And I was planning to bring Snow back once the [Under Eye] problem was resolved, so depending on how the meeting with Charlotte in 3 days goes, I’ll go and get Snow back then.

There is a 3 day gap right now but, right now I want to make sure that everything’s okay first before doing anything hastily.

“I’m worried too but I’ll go to get Snow after the next meeting is done.
Snow can wait another three days, right? After that we can bring it back.”

“……..I guess, but I’m still a bit worried.
I know Snow’s strong but it’s also a bit too kind sometimes.
I hope it’s at least eating properly, right?”

“I left quite a lot of food for it so I think it’ll be fine.
Well, if you’re really that worried Ralf I don’t mind if you go and take a look, you know? I’m too tired to for a trip though so I’ll stay here though.”

“Alright! Then I’ll go visit it by myself then! Esta, you can stay in the capital as well!”

“Sure.
I’ll leave checking in on Snow to you Ralf.
I’ll prioritize recovering from my fatigue as well.”

And just like that, having decided how to spend the next 3 days of break, we left the royal knights quarters and went back to Isabelle’s house.
