Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure

After we came out of the room, the guards that had been waiting outside immediately surrounded us.

The manager quickly turned around and said, ”Count Zwein, I hope that you will not mind. We have prepared guards to escort you to your carriage.”

I gave a nod since I already knew that this was the case.

If anything happened to me while I was still in the auction house, they would naturally be the ones that would be punished. Not to mention that if I was robbed of the item that I won, they would lose all their reputation.

So that was why the manager was being so cautious.

I didn’t mind since this was just how it was.

Plus, it would be a good way of attracting attention like I wanted.

As we walked through the auction hall, it was definitely eye-catching with all the guards around me.

There were many people that pointed and whispered as we walked through, but that was fine with me.

However, we didn’t go to the entrance. Instead, we went to the back entrance where my carriage was waiting for me.

After I got in, the manager came forward to ask, ”Count Zwein, do you require an escort back home? This is one of the services that our auction house provides for our important members.”

I just shook my head and said, ”There’s no need for that.”

Then before the manager could say anything else, I gave the driver a signal and he started moving the carriage. The manager could only watch as we drove off without giving him a chance to speak.

After we left the area of the auction house, I asked the driver, ”Is everything set up?”

The driver was someone who was sent by the fourth prince, so he had been taking care of the setup while we had been at the auction.

After hearing what I said, the driver gave a simple nod before saying, ”When they come later, all you have to do is remain in the carriage. We will take care of the rest.”

I gave a nod back, but the look in my eyes told a different story.

The look in my eyes made it clear that I would act on what I thought was correct.

The driver didn’t care though since this wasn’t a part of his orders.

All he had to do was bring us to the ambush location.

As we got closer and closer, the driver made sure to give us signs to tell us that we were getting close so we could prepare ourselves.

While we were driving through the streets, I noticed that there were fewer and fewer people walking around.

It was clear that this area had been cleared so that normal people wouldn’t be caught up in this. At the same time, the other side would clear out the area so that there would be fewer witnesses.

While we passed by them, Shaka said, ”These people aren’t normal.”

I looked at him with one brow raised and he just gave me a look that explained everything.

These people that were walking around in the streets, they were people that had a dangerous vibe to them. It was a vibe that Shaka would recognize right away because he too had a vibe that was similar to this one.

It was the vibe of someone who…was involved in certain shady businesses.

They were either guards or assassins that had been hired by the fourth prince or the other princes.

Regardless of what I wanted, we were already deep into the plan and there was no turning back.

So I revealed a serious look and focused my mind for what was about to come next.

The carriage continued onward and only stopped after traveling for a while longer.

But this wasn’t a sudden stop, this was a stop that came from the carriage slowing down. And they didn’t stop because they had arrived at their destination, but rather because there was something that stopped them.

Looking out from the window, I could see that there was a group of people that had suddenly appeared in front of our carriage.

With the way that they stood there, it was clear that they didn’t have any good intentions.

In fact, it looked like they were about to attack us.

The driver stopped right in front of them before asking, ”Is there anything that we can do for you?”

The leader of this group revealed a smile before saying, ”Yes, you can leave your lives and your goods here.”

The driver knitted his brows when he heard this before saying, ”I don’t know who you are, but you should be aware that this is the carriage of the lord Count Zwein. Do you really think that you’ll be able to get away with this?”

The leader of the group gave a chuckle before saying, ”Isn’t that the reason why we’re doing this? You shouldn’t be a fool, so just leave now and we’ll spare your life.”

The driver didn’t say anything as he looked at this leader with knitted brows, but his hands weren’t idle. They were still firmly gripped on the reins connected to the horse in front of him.

Then all of a sudden, the driver raised the reins and was about to drive the horse forward to break through this group.

But before he could, the leader suddenly threw a knife at the driver.

The driver was able to dodge out of the way, but that knife cut through the reins and freed the horse.

At the same time, his subordinates all aimed their daggers at the horse.

Now that the horse was free from the control of the driver, it ripped itself out of its harness when it saw the daggers flying at it. When it did this, it also destroyed part of the carriage while breaking free.

So by the end, the horse was able to run off past these attackers and leave the carriage stranded there in the middle of the street.

There was no escape for them now.
