Chapter 33: 33
◇
Well, now that the demon has been dealt with, let's meet up with Liza and the others .
Lulu and Nana are remaining in the village, so they're probably fine . Both of their HP haven't decreased, and also Nana's MP and Lulu's stamina are at no-problem level .
"Now then, Arisa, Pochi, let's get out of here . "
"Yes, nano desu . "
"Okay . "
What's wrong Arisa, you look awfully tired .
"Are you tired?"
"Yeah, I really am . "
"I'll piggyback you nodesu~ . "
It looks like she's not pleased with the instant-kill of the demon with the holy bolt earlier . I should have not taken Arisa's turn to shine after all .
Since Pochi seems to want to carry Arisa on her back, I leave it to her . When Pochi is running down the the stairs, Arisa shouts, "N, No, I'd rather master to carry me instead~" . Looks like she's unexpectedly energetic .
Before I knew it, she had started to call me, "Master" again, instead of "you" . Since I don't particularly care, I let her call me whatever she likes, but that Arisa obstinately calls me "Master" only when she's exhausted .
I lift off the silver mask costume that I've forgotten to .
Of course, I also clean-up the wooden holy sword and the remains of holy-bolt creation without leaving any trace .
>[Evidence Destruction Skill Acquired]
It's a skill reeks of crime, but after I activate it, I perfectly clean-up the traces once again .
I feel like I could do perfect crimes now .
◇
When I'm joining with Pochi and Arisa who are in front of the deserted mansion, I notice that the second daughter of the baron is coming here quickly .
Even though the destruction of evidences takes time, she has just been at the wall, she's really fast . She likely have used magic .
The lady appears from behind the tall hedges .
Demonic .
"You people there, where are hero-sama desuno?"
"Hero-sama had gone with baron-sama to the castle's stronghold . "
"It's not that imitation . I'm talking about hero-sama with the golden sword desuwa . "
Demonic .
"The hero-sama I know is only that one . I don't think there's anyone else inside the mansion?"
"Karina-dono, this girl seems to have said the truth . Let us go upstairs . "
"Where's that voice coming from nodesu? I can't see the jii-chan nodesu . "
"Don't tell me, it's an intelligence item?"
<TLN: Jii-chan means gramp, with chan . >
Demonic .
Yes, those are somethings that only exist in 2 dimension (Fiction) .
"I understand, young ladies, thank you for the information desuwa . "
Demonic breasts (Manyuu)--an existence that has surpassed explosive breasts (Bakunyuu)--Supported by silver locket-shaped ornament, they're hanging, the girl with proportion that looks like a joke runs up the stairs .
"What happen, you've hardened like a stone since awhile ago . "
Thanks to Poker Face skill, my glances weren't exposed .
It was too kyonyuu, I had stopped thinking . Even in my wildest dream, I didn't think that there was an existence that surpassed that girl's big sister .
It'd be hard to oppose if such human approaches you .
In a sense, she's more dangerous than the demon .
"I'm sorry, I was surprised to see an Intelligence Item for the first time . "
"You're lying . You were probably ●REC-ing that manga-like kyonyuu right?"
Looks like Arisa could see through my lame excuse .
Oh right, rather than that .
"Arisa, can you create figure of my cosplay earlier with your magic?"
"I could do it if it's just an image seen from eyes . "
I see, an image huh .
"Then, create the illusion on the window of the mansion's top floor and have him jump around like a flea toward the castle wall, to the urban area . "
"Like that, it'd be out of the range of my magic--Is it really necessary?"
"You don't want the kyonyuu beauty from earlier to follow us along right?"
Her appearance is totally in my strike zone, but I feel like the personality is the type I'm not good with .
"Okay . I want to avoid that with all my power . "
Violet magic circle appears on Arisa's surrounding . It's Arisa's unique skill, [Over Boost] .
I've made sure that there's no one in the vicinity already, even though there's no one in sight on around 2 meters away from the hedge, it may be a bit careless of her to use it outside in the middle of the day .
The illusion of silver mask appears on the mansion's balcony, and casually jumps out from the window . While carrying the golden sword on its shoulder, it's jumping around like pyon-pyon, in straight posture, and then disappears in the city .
The movements were a bit disgusting, but it seemed that the people in the stronghold had properly noticed it, it was a good performance .
Slightly after the illusion goes to the city, the lady shows her face on the balcony .
I've thought that she would come out a bit faster, but the inertia of those breasts are probably really great indoor making her unable to run with all her might . I've hoped that she would witness it when the illusion is out of the see-through skill range, but since there are other witnesses around, there's probably no problem .
Arisa who is exhausted after using Over Boost tries to coerce me to drink her stamina potion mouth-to-mouth, but I pinch her nose and thrust the potion bottle on her mouth .
◇
Now then, before I meet up with Liza, there's one final work that I have to do .
With Remote Arrows, I crush the zombies who are coming out of the passage that the companions of fake hero have used and litter the road with corpses . And of course I also close the entrance near the castle by bending the iron bars near it and tie them to it .
Even though the fake hero's companions are badly hurt, it seems that there's no one who dies, they're moving toward the territory's border using the side road .
For some reason, knight Eral--It's the guy who's tried to stab Hayuna-san--is also moving behind them . When did that guy escape . His health and stamina are in critical condition too, but this type of guy is usually hard to die, so he probably would live .
Looks like the giants and knight called Zotor are blockading the front gate . Liza and the others are taking care of the zombies inside the city while heading toward the castle gate .
Since the zombies who have invaded the city are consisted of thieves and goblins, they're weak on the whole . I've not fired any support shoot since awhile ago since the opponents are too weak for Liza and the others .
◇
There aren't only soldiers on the top of the castle gate, but also several servant-like people, they are shouting something to the people outside .
Liza and the others are going to arrive soon . The three's levels have been raised . As expected, they would after that many battles . Pochi has become the lowest leveled one among the beastkin girls . Next time, I guess I'll take Pochi to a monster hunting date at midnight .
I lead Arisa and Pochi to climb up the tower beside the castle gate . There's a door that goes toward the castle gate halfway through the tower .
I wonder what is this smell spreading inside the tower . It really stinks . Pochi put both her hands on her nose as if it's really painful . It's quite a cute gesture .
"Ugeh, what's this kendo's guard-like smell . "
"Stinknodesu . "
We get out of the dark tower to the top of castle gate . The light is dazzling .
"Oh! she's defeated the last one . "
"Yer' amazing, demi-human knight-san . "
"Now, people who've bet on the scalekin knight-san for defeating the last one! Receive your share . "
Air of delight is dominating the top of the castle gate .
It seems that Liza has just defeated the last zombie . They're about 300 meters away from the castle gate .
"Liza! Tama! Mia!"
I call the three of them while waving my hand .
Liza who noticed me lead the other two to come here while riding the horses . About 10 Oyugock knights are following them from behind .
What's with the subordinates-like movement .
"Are they subordinates of magician-sama?"
The one who ask is wearing soldier-like clothing, but it's actually one of the maid that I've met on the mansion . Since she had rolled up her hair and wears a helm, I did not noticed .
When I affirm it, she says, "I'll make arrangement immediately", and conveys something to an important-looking man . It seems that he's one of the few survivors of the regular soldiers .
With his instruction, one of the door for horse riders is opened, and Liza and the others go inside the castle .
"Satou . "
Someone jumps from the unsaddled horse, it's Mia . I catch her and holds her sideway . She's as light as ever .
"Tama . "
"Pochi . "
Beside us, Pochi and Tama firmly hug each other . Since the two of them were always together, they might had been lonely .
However, Liza is still cautious even after she gets inside the castle . She's moving her line of sight vigilantly .
"Thank you for your hard work too Liza, there's no enemy inside the castle, it's alright . "
After I assert so, she finally removes her vigilance, and dismounts .
However, her tension is still high . She's probably tense since this is inside the baron's castle .
"You don't have to worry, baron-sama and his peers are open-hearted good people . Pochi was loved too . "
"I've received baked sweets nodesu~ . "
Pochi takes out baked sweets from her pocket and shares it to Tama and Mia . Come to think of it, she was fed on something when she was sitting on the daughter's lap .
"Master, it is most reassuring that you're safe . "
"Un, I'm glad that Liza is safe too . "
Since there's a small wound on Liza's arm, I heal it with the magic that I've just learned today . Fumu, it uses 10 MP for such small wound huh, looks like potions are more efficient .
Liza is apologizing for leaving her position and coming to the city that has resulted in exposing Tama and Mia to dangers .
It seemed that her action was because she was anxious that I would be imprisoned by the noble . Looks like she's worried about me, with different reason than Arisa .
I'm thankful for the worry, but tonight, I will tell Liza that it's just an imaginary fear .
