Scolded
“……Although I’ve heard about it before, this is outrageous”
“……She held back quite a lot usually huh”
Before Mylene and my eyes is the aftermath of the slashing attack. It tore the First Princess who’s feared as the Flame Princess into pieces without any issue, reduced the Royal Castle’s wall to rubbles with just the after-effect.
In addition to that, the soldiers who were there were all turned into small pieces as well. Only the Flame Princess still has a comprehensible appearance but, even so, her hands are cut and downwards from her waist has been cut off.
And then Liscia who returns triumphantly to our side. That face with the helmet removed has this boastful air somewhere and it irritates me slightly.
“How was it, Master! I’m also quite impressive, aren’t I!”
“The characteristic of a Paladin was non-existent though”
“……Uu, I wish you wouldn’t say that. Even I, thought about wanting to use the Paladin’s Occupation Arts multiple times. Until I got my hands on this Seven Swords, I couldn’t use it at all”
Liscia who went ‘I can’t use it for some reason~’, and with a slightly sorrowful expression, looks up into the sky like she’s thinking about it nostalgically……she can make such frail yet beautiful expression huh. My heart throbbed unconsciously.
“Creator, the soldiers over here are done”
When I am looking at such Liscia, Nero speaks to me. I look around after hearing Nero’s words and, the soldiers who gathered have all been defeated indeed. The numerous smashed up bodies and bodies in small pieces are inevitable huh. It can probably be the materials for the Opus Killers.
“Then, how about her, Hardt-sama?”
I turn my face upon hearing Mylene’s words to, the Flame Princess……huh.
“That girl, she’s still alive, right?”
Even so, the only difference is that she’s going to die immediately if she’s left like this though. Nevertheless, if she’s alive then the healing method is different.
“Mylene, can you heal her?”
“Yes! I have been practising on the dead spirits recently so it is fine!”
Mylene who says that and starts to run off. She joyfully holds in her hands a portion of the Flame Princess’ body that was cut off, affixes it to the body and activates magic. She goes ‘For Hardt-sama’s sake!’, and works hard on various things for me. Let’s do something for her next time.
While Mylene is healing her, I have the Opus Killers gather up the other corpses, Nero and Liscia are dealing with the soldiers who, although sporadically, come attacking.
“Alright! Hardt-sama, she has been healed!”
As I started to think about whether I should help out Nero and the others, I hear Mylene’s energetic voice. I look at the direction of the voice and, there is the figure of Mylene who is running towards me happily. At the spot where she was until just now, although still not awake, the figure of the Flame Princess who’s completed healed is there.
“Oo, you did a good job, Mylene”
I caress Mylene’s head and, Mylene smiles happily as she pushes onto my palm even more. How cute, jeez!
“Creator, it’s about time for us to head inside. It has also become a pain to deal with those guys”
When I was showering the lovely Mylene with affection, Nero interrupted us. This fellow, he did it intentionally huh. However, what Nero said is also right. Rather, we are a little too relaxed. We don’t know what might happen so we have to focus.
I make Liscia shoulder the Flame Princess and we enter the Royal Castle from the wall that Liscia chopped up. Inside, a pathway that’s so wide that there’s room even if 10 person line side by side together goes on. Besides, there are lots of turns. Somehow, it feels like I’ll lose my way. Moreover
“We are being invited in”
It seems Liscia and I arrived at the same thought. Ever since we entered the castle, we stopped catching sight of any soldiers. It’s a possibility but they are probably inviting us in.
“What do we do, Creator?”
“Of course we’re going right from the front. There’s no reason for us to be sneaky. Besides, if it’s Liscia and the others then they will be able to forcefully hold it down with their strength even if it’s a trap, right?”
“Fufuu, of course, Master!”
“I will also do my best and protect Hardt-sama!”
“Kukuu, of course”
From what I said, Liscia proceeds first, Mylene is on guard by my side, Nero gives instructions out to the Opus Killers. I advance forward along with such subordinates.
And then we arrived at, a large conspicuous door. There are quite a number of presences behind the door. I place my hands on the door without hesitation. I hear the voices of Liscia and the others that are stopping me but, I open the door as it is. And then after I opened the door
“Release!”
Under somebody’s command, my field of vision was filled with magic. However, anybody will roughly know that it’s a trap if they feel these much presences. Naturally, I was also prepared.
“The Sun Of Erosion”
A jet-black orb that looks like it will absorb everything appears before my eyes. The orb that isn’t even 10 centimetres in diameter starts moving in response to the approaching magic.
It flies about in front of me at lightning speed, absorbing and erasing the magic that approaches in succession. Perhaps about several hundred, the orb that absorbed all that amount of magic, even though it was only about 10 centimetres at first, it probably has a diameter of about 2 meters now.
The spectacle that is visible on the other side of the orb is, dumbfounded soldiers who are standing stock still.That’s also natural huh. Since all of us are totally unharmed because of this orb.
“Then I’m returning it. Burst open”
When I snap my fingers, the orb that became large bursts open. They sharpen into pointed spears respectively and fly towards the soldiers who released magic at us until just now. Without even a single soldier being able to escape, it pierced all of the soldiers. At the back of room that was changed into a sea of blood in an instant, a group of people look at us dumbfounded.
They are a bunch of people who are wearing gorgeous clothes. That is the King and the ministers huh. As it is, I start to walk triumphantly……try to walk triumphantly and, I was grasped by the head from the back. Eh, ouch.
And then my head was forcibly made to turn. My, my neck is going to twist off!? And when I look at the direction that I was forcibly turned to, Liscia who has a tremendous smile with, Mylene who’s teary-eyed, and Nero who looks to be……angry was there.
“Master, shall we have a little talk. Nero, I’ll leave the guys on the other side to you”
“I understand. It is Creator’s fault this time”
“That’s right! I thought my heart was about to fly out!!”
I who was grabbed on the head with Liscia’s ridiculous strength was held so high that my feet couldn’t touch the ground and, am dangling. My n, my neck hurts.
And then I was forcefully taken away by Liscia. Mylene follows along. The Opus Killers who enter the room in our stead went to surround the King and the others under Nero’s instructions. I’ll be talking to them so don’t kill them.
“Prepare yourself, Master. Time for a little lecture”
……More importantly, my life might be in danger.
