Infinite Gacha - Chapter 420

The sound of a "whoosh" ripping through the air is faintly audible.

It is the sound of tin in the sky above, putting orphans who have been drugged with an explosive magic item to sleep with a sleeping magic bullet.

Fairy maids on guard duty at a building in a back alley off the main street where the parade passes, overhearing the occasional wind noise and conversing with each other.

I didn't think that in addition to the original plan, you would also be carrying out a plan to help the orphans," she said. It's so unexpected, isn't it?

I don't have a choice," he said. If we leave it like this, it will interfere with the original operation.

undefinedCurrently, a coordinated operation is being carried out in the air and on the ground to rescue the orphans.

Fairy maids, who were not originally scheduled to participate, were called from the lowest level of the "abyss" to retrieve the orphans who were put to sleep and transport them to a certain house.

This was a completely unscheduled operation, as Nazuna had discovered the presence of explosives by chance, based on her intuition.

And since Yume-sama had asked the master to do it out of pity for the orphans, there was no way it could fail. On the contrary, we can consider ourselves lucky that it did not affect our original plan.

Well, you know. But still, Yume-sama, who tries to help the orphans, is really an angel. Of course, Light-sama, who gave permission to help the orphans out of pity, is also too kind.

I heard that the parade tour you were looking forward to was cancelled for the safety of Yume-sama. There was still time to go around the festival. Poor Yume-sama. ......"

Currently, Yume is returning home to the luxury inn where Nemmu and Gold were staying under escort. Although she is supposed to be in her room for safety reasons, she has returned to the lowest level of the "abyss" for safety reasons.

This is a precautionary measure in case of an unscheduled orphan bombing.

But," he said, "aren't the festivals on the ground honestly not very subtle?　The atmosphere at the festival is nice, but the food at the stalls is not very good, the sweet food is not very good, and even the water tastes bad."

A gal-type fairy maid gives her honest opinion.

The fairy maids were also visiting food stalls during their break time, as they were on the ground for a change.

The reputation of the "NARAKU" members on the ground was not so good to begin with.

Of course, not all of them were bad.

Some, such as Gold, described the local delicacies, alcoholic beverages, and ghetto food as "delicious," "addictive," and "flavorful.

Overall, though, they didn't rate them very highly. ......

So, how good is it really?"

It is human nature to be curious.

The fairy maids, with their feathers hidden and discreetly dressed, ate and drank on the ground for the first time. ......

As I had heard, it was not so tasty compared to the "abyss".

The nerdy-looking fairy maids voiced their agreement.

She said, "It sure didn't taste good. The meat was tough and smelly, and the seasoning was basically salt.

I mean, I'm not saying that I don't like it. I mean, what about the fact that even the fruit water tastes bad?　It's not very sweet and has a cloying taste, and you can hardly taste the fruit.

Food and drink at the lowest level of the "abyss" are provided by Wright's "Infinite Gacha" cards.

Food and beverage cards from the "Infinite Gacha" also have a rarity level, and naturally, the higher the card, the tastier the food.

For example, the higher the rarity of wheat, the sweeter the taste, and even just baked bread tasted far better than bread made by high-class innkeepers on the ground.

So, Yume-sama, aside from the parade, there is probably nothing to be gained by staying at the festival any longer. In fact, it's probably a good thing that Light-sama and Yume-sama didn't have to eat unsanitary and dubious food.

Ta, ta, ta, that's for sure.

Light is level 9999 and has resistance to disabling poisons.

Yume has a magic item that nullifies the same, so even if she were to be given a poisonous drink, there would be no problem.

The fairy maid did not want her master to eat anything suspicious any more.

And it's about time..."

As they are complaining to each other, the scheduled time ...... for the detonation of the "exploding magic item" first poured into the city by the anti-Lilith faction is approaching.

The Lilith group, aware of this in advance, collects all the "magic items that explode" except for the orphan's. The Lilith group is now in the process of setting off the magic items.

They were collected in a building located in a corner of a back street off the main street where the parade was to take place.

The building in this corner was uninhabited and was originally scheduled to be torn down due to its aging.

Ellie gathered "magic items that explode" there and constructed a ward around it.

The upper part of the building was untouched, and when it exploded, the force of the explosion would escape into the sky.

The idea was to destroy useless buildings that were neither too far nor too close to the main street where the parade would be held, so that the anti-Lilith faction could be declared a problem and they could be disposed of.

The parade is unpopular, as Ellie has put up a "ward of hesitation" to keep people away from the area, just in case.

The fairy maids were standing guard on the side of the building just in case.

A nerdy-looking fairy maid takes out her pocket watch.

"One minute before the explosion. ......

As the time approaches, the countdown begins.

Five, four, three, two, one--zero.

As she counts down the seconds, the "Exploding Magic Item" explodes on schedule.

The exploding energy is blocked on all sides by the wards and escapes to the only open space above.

Because the wards extend quite high up, like chimneys, the explosive energy is released at a great distance from the ground.

Thanks to this, there was absolutely no damage to the ground.

The sound is muffled and smoke billows up, but it is not a continuous explosion, so it quickly dissipates.

People nearby were surprised by the sudden explosion at first, but since there was no particular damage, the explosion sound did not continue, and there was no further change, it only spread in a murmur.

Thanks to the fact that the nearby security soldiers are spreading the word that there is no problem, the commotion quickly dissipates.

However, it will be a very good landmark for those who are watching the chaos in the capital from afar - the anti-Lilith faction.

Even if it means their own destruction.

Now that we're done with our business, let's go back and report it, shall we?

Okay.

The fairy maids, who had finished their watch, also left the scene to report back.

All that remained was the wreckage of the building that was originally scheduled for demolition.
