Organ rental company in another world

Karentin gently pulled the reins, and the two horses pulling the carriage slowly came to a stop. Norn's dilapidated carriage came to a steady stop in front of the villa gate, which seemed out of place with it.

Austin had been waiting inside with five soldiers for a long time. When the carriage arrived, the soldiers carried the heavy wooden crates and prepared to load them onto the carriage.

Louisa considered that using a special mesh box for coins would attract the covetous eyes of others, so she used an ordinary wooden box, and stuffed the inside and outside of the box with cloth as cushioning to reduce the noise of the coins clattering together.

Seeing this, Norn couldn't help but admire Louisa's thoughtfulness, but it seemed his little car couldn't hold it all.

Karentin compared the size of the carriage and the wooden crates and figured that the carriage could only fit a maximum of four crates before there was no room for anyone to stand inside.

"How about I help you sell this car and you get a bigger one?" Karentin asked Norn.

With Norn's consent, Karentin unloaded the chest containing several thousand gold coins that Norn had placed on the carriage. Just as he was about to spur his horse away, several armored men blocked his way.

Karentin's face darkened as he recognized the leader as his superior, Knight Torris.

"Mr. Karentin, please come down. I have something to discuss with you," Torres asked.

"Is it about your son? I'm sorry, I didn't hit him."

"Regardless of who did the hitting or who was hit, isn't it our duty to protect every resident of Rose Town? Please come down. As your captain, I feel it's necessary to discuss this matter with you."

Just then, Norn arrived. Hopius, who had been hiding behind Toris, saw Norn and jumped out, pointing and shouting, "Father, it's him! He stole my money and beat me up!"

Torres looked at Norn with sharp eyes and couldn't help but admire him in his heart.

Ah, what a handsome young man!

With such a robust physique, it's no wonder that idiot Hopis couldn't beat him.

Torres glanced casually at his son, whose face was bruised and swollen, and a surge of anger and disappointment welled up within him.

Damn, if only you looked half like this guy!

Upon seeing this scene, Norn instantly understood what had happened: this good-for-nothing had gone to his father to complain.

However, Hopis looked a bit strange. Although his face was still covered in bruises like a car accident scene, his injuries were obviously more serious than those he had sustained. His right cheek was swollen to almost the size of an apple.

Moreover, as the captain of the royal guard, Torres couldn't possibly be unable to afford even a bottle of healing potion. How could he possibly allow his son to endure the pain and come to testify against him?

There is only one explanation: Torres first gave his son a healing potion, and after the injury healed, he suddenly realized that it might be more effective to have him come back covered in wounds, so he beat Hopis up again.

Thinking of this, Norn chuckled: "Sir Knight, you're really ruthless to your own son, you beat him harder than I did."

A flicker of surprise crossed Torres' eyes. "Are you kidding me? Why would I hit my own son? You're here anyway, so come along with Karentin and take him away."

After speaking, Toris waved to his men behind him, and several soldiers in white armor stepped forward, their right hands resting on their sword hilts.

Upon seeing this, Karentin immediately drew his sword and pointed it at them, saying, "Go back! What do you think you're doing? Trying to arrest people in broad daylight with impunity?"

"You've shown favoritism to the perpetrator out of personal affection, which is a serious violation of our mission. And you, the perpetrator, dared to beat my son today; tomorrow you'll dare to lay your hands on the townspeople of Rose Town! I'm bringing you before the Duke for a fair trial!"

The next second, the soldiers all drew their swords.

Without further ado, Karentin jumped off the carriage, sword in hand, and confronted the soldiers.

"Attack! I'll cover the damage if you get hurt!" Torres shouted to the soldiers.

His confidence stemmed from the Duke of William's strict management of his soldiers.

Once upon a time, a knight got drunk and harassed a woman in the street. The woman's husband, unable to bear it any longer, got into a fight with the knight and accidentally cut off one of the knight's arms.

To cripple one's own knight is seen by other dukes as a great provocation, a capital offense.

After Duke William learned the cause of the matter, he not only revoked the knighthood but also personally apologized to the man.

It is precisely this strict governance that has made Rose Town exceptionally stable, attracting merchants from all over the world to do business here, thus creating the prosperous scene that Rose Town is today.

Karentin's act of allowing outsiders to bully the townspeople could be considered as serious as a knight harassing a woman.

Even if Duke William were to take pity on Karentin and pardon him, taking the opportunity to cripple Karentin by one hand or half a leg would still achieve Torres's goal.

Upon hearing Toris's words, the soldiers unleashed their fury and charged at Karentin with their swords.

Karentin was, after all, a mithril-level adventurer, so dealing with these roadside thugs was naturally a piece of cake for him.

Norn, on the other hand, was in a different situation. His sword was left in the car, and he wasn't wearing any armor. He was about to run back to the villa to find Austin when he was grabbed and pinned to the ground.

Karentin's situation wasn't much better, because he couldn't kill them, so he could only kick them away again and again. As his strength gradually ran out, he was also pinned to the ground.

"Do it! Chop off his right hand."

Torres walked up to a soldier and said.

"Huh? This..." The soldier was somewhat reluctant.

"Get them done. I'll take responsibility if anything goes wrong!"

The soldier could only hesitantly raise his sword, about to strike, when Austin's voice rang out:

"Stop right there!"

Torres stared in surprise at Austin running towards him, but quickly regained his composure.

Austin looked at the soldiers holding the two men down: "Release them!"

The soldiers quickly got up and retreated dejectedly.

"What are you doing?"

"Miss, this man bullied my son in the street, and Karentin was right there but helped him and turned a blind eye. I'm taking them to the Duke now."

As Torres spoke, he quietly pushed Hopis forward with his hand, so that Austin could see the terrible state of her son.

Austin merely smiled dismissively: "Arrest someone if you must, why cut off Karentin's hand?"

"You must be mistaken, we're not going to cut off hands." Toris looked at the soldier with the sword raised, who nodded repeatedly.

"Hmph, I don't care what you say, Norn is my savior, and no one is taking him away!"

As soon as Austin finished speaking, Torres's pupils dilated in shock.

What is this?! This kid is Austin's savior?!

He had initially thought Norn was just a companion of Karentin when he was an adventurer, but he hadn't expected him to have such powerful backing.

However, the Duke of William was a man of principle and would not take sides in this matter.

"Whoever he is, he stole my son's money and beat him up. This can't be left like this. I'm going to send him and Karentin to the Duke!"

Austin wanted to argue, but Norn stopped her:

"It's alright. If you're upright, you have nothing to fear. Go ahead and go."
