After getting all the essential information Elena left the guild just to see an elegant looking butler was waiting for her outside the guild. He reported -

"Adventurer, I'm Nicolus the head butler of Margrave Raflieta. My master wanted to meet with you and talk about the infamous bandits. Enter that carriage over there."

"Umm, he wants to have a talk with me about the bandits hah? Excuse me but I'm currently a little busy. I might be available after about 4-5 hours and that time I will go to Margrave's mansion."

Saying so Elena started to leave. Veins started to twitch on the butler's forehead. As there were not many high ranking adventurers in Urasula and the Margrave family had very strong military power, the subordinates of Margrave here were not very respectful toward an adventurer. And the only A rank adventurer of the city who died recently was a pushover and that didn't help the case.

So, due to these reasons, the butler Nicolus made the most wrong decision of his life. He was a military man with an impressive level of 246. He was very proud of that and as he had a lot of experience with real combat he thought he must be stronger than a young girl even tho she might have a higher level and a beautiful face. He was a close quarters combatant so he threw a punch toward her face to destroy that picturesque face.

From a very young age Nicolus was very fond of muscle. Even after growing up he was still unable to get rid of this fetish and he fell in love with the Margrave himself. But Margrave rejected him and married a beautiful woman and from that day on he started having an insane hatred towards good looking women.

But after throwing the punch before he could think of anything he found himself lying on the ground looking at the sky. After that he felt an impact hitting his belly and he coughed up blood. Then he heard a menacing voice -

"With your taste, you don't need your little brother, right? I will kindly destroy it for you."

Saying so Elena kicked Nicolus in the balls very hard and the sound of something breaking was heard followed by Nicolus' pain filled shouting. Some adventurers and city guards who knew about Nicolus' identity were trying to get close to Elena to help him but after seeing what Elena did to Nicolus all of them backed away slowly. Nobody wanted to have their balls broken. If they lost their little brother they would no longer be able to have snu snu and that's a big no no.

After shouting for a few minutes Nicolus fell unconscious due to excessive pain. Elena kicked him away like trash and looked at the guards who came with Nicolus. She used a special power for the first time outside of practice that she didn't have in her previous world. She used the soul resonance of the "Celestial Mystic Fox (Kumiho Kuzunoha)" and used the power of mind manipulation. By using this soul resonance Elena could actually read the thoughts of all low level beings be it a friend or a foe. But she didn't like to use the soul resonance all the time as it was a little bit uncomfortable for her.

After using mind manipulation and making the guards loyal to her instantly he ordered them to put Nicolus inside the carriage and then take him to the Margrave's mansion. And she also told them to give the Margrave a message that she would visit him sometime later and she was looking forward to seeing a warm reception. As she saw them leaving she turned around and went away from the adventurer guild.

After taking a few twists and turns she suddenly disappeared from the sight of the person who was looking at her from quite a distance. As soon as he frowned a little bit trying to find Elena once again he heard a mesmerizing voice from behind.

"I was wondering who was the pervert, who was looking towards a fair maiden sneakily. So it was you, huh?"

He body completely froze after hearing her voice. She once again used her soul resonance and extracted all of his memories. From those memories she found out that he was one of the spies who were hiding undercover inside the city. Their job was to gather all kinds of information and to keep an eye on some key figures. As they noticed that she was an A rank adventurer and that the margrave family was asking her to visit them to give her more information about the "Deadly Plague", they decided to keep an eye on her.

As this organisation was not primarily related to an assassination or to an espionage organisation, they didn't have much secrecy and all the other members knew each other. So Elena used the memory she got from the man and hunted down all the other gang members who were also inside the city. She even double checked some other members memory and was able to find out three more members who were not in the first one's mind.

After cleaning up all the members who were inside the city working as a spy she went toward the mansion of Margrave Raflieta. As soon as she reached in front of the gates she received a very warm reception as she had told them to do. About 100 arrows were sent straight toward her without asking any questions. Elena had a passive {Projectile Immunity (MAX)} skill so none of the arrows were able to reach her even tho she didn't dodged them at all. Then she kicked open the doors. Actually the doors didn't just open but were blown up and landed in the Margrave's garden.

After she crossed the gates another hail of arrows came flying toward her. This time they were not normal arrows but magic ones. The numbers were much lower than the previous time but the power of each arrow was much higher. But, just like previous ones these special arrows were also unable to reach Elena.

Then the gates of the main mansion opened and a lot of soldiers clad in full plates came out and attacked her. Elena got a bit impatient as she knew that these were all the probing units and a lot more were waiting inside. She had no need or patience to play his little game as she wanted to attack the bandit's hideout tonight so she released a bit of her hidden killing intent and the world turned crimson.

The soldiers had a vision of mountains of corpses and rivers of blood. Everything around them turned scarlet, the sky, the ground, the water everything. Even tho a lot of them were veterans of the battlefield, they had never seen such a scene before and just after a few moments all of them who came in contact with Elena's killing intent fainted.

"I think I overdid it a bit. Even half of the currently released killing intent would have been fine. Heh, no problem I will just wake the Margrave up."

The Margrave was tall and muscular. Even tho he was a little old but he was still able to maintain his figure and strength. Elena didn't want to interrogate the Margrave out in the open so she took him inside the Margrave's office to start her little interrogation session.
