Chapter 113 – #25 Infiltration, Another Old Friend of the Hero (3)
A mysterious figure wearing a hood――without a last name, a person named Chris was looking around the mansion.
He walked around the outside of the mansion a little while ago, finished a rough investigation, waited for the night to get deeper, and sneaked inside.
Since he uses his special skill, stealth magic, he gets through everything with absurd ease.
Without being noticed by anyone, they infiltrated the mansion.
But…
‘It’s strangely easy.’
Under the hood, Chris scans his surroundings with a cold eye.
A bizarrely wide, bizarrely long hallway.
The size of this mansion is different from what it looks like from the outside.
Only this inside is wide, wide, and complexly composed like a labyrinth, so wide that the end cannot be seen.
A phenomenon that transcends the general laws of physics.
There is no doubt that it is a special phenomenon called ‘magic’, just like Chris’s body is being hidden now.
As she is sensitive to her magical powers and magic, she already knew that when she investigated outside her mansion.
But…
‘But aren’t the guards too lax?’
Of course, there were those who seemed to be guards at the entrance of the mansion.
Definitely a golem type.
Avoiding their sight, I made a big detour around the mansion and jumped over the fence, but I haven’t seen any other guards since.
No matter how much Chris used magic to infiltrate, is it possible for something this low?
Of course, there was an alarm magic to let you know that an intruder had entered, and a barrier that had a complicated feeling, but it was done with absurdly easy hands by Chris.
Obviously, when I looked into it, it looked like a barrier made up of several layers of stone walls.
When I put my hand on it, I should say it felt like I was just painting a plausible paint on a wooden board.
It should be said that it is simply used to match the assortment.
A strange feeling of uneasiness sprouted in Chris at the bizarrely flimsy feeling.
It must have penetrated through an undetected hole in the magical barrier, but
It feels like threads of an invisible boundary are entangled in one’s body.
It was easier to infiltrate than I thought, but that doesn’t mean I can’t be relieved.
To be honest, my heart was pounding with anxiety from a moment ago, to the point of being noisy…
Since the hallway is unnecessarily quiet, the sound gets louder…
‘Heartbeat is loud. It looks like it will come out of my ear hole like this.’
‘Should I go back… ? No, no. It can’t be.’
‘I have to free Emilia as soon as possible. Count Meln must be eliminated.’
Bondi Chris is a soft-hearted person.
However, as he interacted with his old friends Emilia and Princess Mine, he learned that one cannot achieve one’s will with a weak heart.
The heart of courage learned from the two of them inspires the heart to be weak.
Great.
Can do.
You can do it.
Anyway, you made it here safely.
It is as if half of the work to be done today has already been done.
All that was left was to figure out her Emilia’s location, and take her with her and escape from this mansion.
“――What?!”
Peit, And something glowing came out from under Chris’s hood.
What she took out of her arms and flew was a silver dagger.
Pooh!
The dagger that flew in like that was stuck in the middle of the shadow of the dark aisle.
The blade imbued with magical power pierced the soft carpet and seemed to be embedded in the floor.
But the next moment, it’s like being pushed by a shadow…
It floated in the air with a moving shadow.
“Oh my gosh, I tried to keep an eye on you, but I was already caught~”
A shadow pulsating like a living creature, pushing away the dagger thrown by Chris.
And beside it, a human figure rises up from the shadows as if being protected by those shadows.
“Welcome, intruder. My name is Master’s contractor and sex slave servant, Mona the Succubus. … Please take good care of me ♪”
――The succubus Mona appeared in front of Chris who turned around…
* * *
“Whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop. Nice to meet you, guest. If you don’t mind, I’d like to take you to the drawing room where we’ll treat you politely. How about that?”
“…”
Drifting off Mona’s pointless chatter, Chris grabbed his favorite dagger from under her hood and pulled it out.
One dagger in each hand.
The dagger bent in a mysterious shape emits a bluish light in the moonlight outside the window.
It’s like a beast’s teeth, Mona thought, narrowing her eyes.
It wasn’t particularly enchanted, but I could tell that it was a special item made with a special ore.
――Not an ordinary intruder.
It’s like using those things, hiding her body with magic, canceling Mona’s alert spell…
At the very least, Mona was almost certain that her opponent would not be an ordinary person.
Of course, her hand was written separately to make it easier to dispel her boundary spell.
“… Emilia.”
“Yes?”
“Emilia, is the hero here?”
An androgynous voice that makes it difficult to know the gender.
At that question, Mona laughed and put her hand to her lips.
“You mean warrior? What should I do with this, I ate it ♪”
“Shut up. I can still feel Emilia’s magical power.”
“… The joke doesn’t work. And eating it didn’t mean eating it that way.”
Hehesmile Mona.
And behind such Mona, she heard a distant clatter clatter clatter clatter.
The same sound is coming from not only behind Mona, but also behind Chris, who is standing in the middle of her hallway. Coming closer.
The guard golems that had been waiting according to Mona’s instructions were now gathering here.
“Chit… !”
Chris’ decision was quick.
The escape route was blocked both in front of and behind her, so she immediately threw herself at the window beside her.
Clink!
The glass in the window shatters, and Chris’ body flies through the air.
Now that Chris is on the second floor, she can land in her garden without getting hurt as long as she has good posture.
After she bullied her for the time being, she thought that after that, let’s decide how to act next.
“Uh… ?”
Flutter!
And the next moment, Chris couldn’t help but be surprised and embarrassed.
I’m sure she threw herself at the garden outside.
But the next moment, she landed in a hallway covered with a soft carpet.
Furthermore, the same hallway as the one where she tried to run out a moment ago.
In other words, she landed where Mona was still standing.
Even Mona, who was several meters away a moment ago, is now right in front of her own nose…
“【Replacement Magic】. All entrances and exits to this mansion are in my hands.”
The window Chris had just jumped into and the window near Mona were temporarily connected.
And while Chris, unable to comprehend the situation, is frozen in the same position as he landed in her hallway.
Mona reached out her hand towards Chris.
“Catch ♪”
And the next moment.
Charrrr!With a booming sound, heavy chains flew in from all directions, wrapping around the hooded intruder at once, trapping him and hanging him in the air.
* * *
Click-click-click-click-click
Click-click-click-click-click
Even in the middle of the night, the sound of heavy armor resonates.
Since all the vigilance golems in operation were brought in, the hallway where they gathered became noisy with just the sound.
‘Ah, did I call you for nothing?’
I thought it would be a little more difficult and gathered the golems at once, but the opponent was caught more trivially than I thought.
Still, thanks to the presence of the golem, the opponent panicked and moved as Mona guided.
If you think about it like that, it wouldn’t have been a meaningless act.
“Okay, okay~. It’s done, then should I look at your face?
With her bouncing steps, Mona moved towards her chained intruder.
The intruder tries to escape by twisting her child’s body while chained,
There was no way he could escape that much from the chain created by Mona’s magic.
Mona reached for her impaled intruder’s hood and tore it off.
The intruder’s face was revealed like that…
“To?”
The intruder’s face visible under the hood.
Seeing this, Mona couldn’t help but be surprised.
Nothing else.
It’s not because they’re handsome or ugly.
In the first place, the face under the hood had no face.
Under her hood, there was nothing but a doll made of black clay…
Hey profit!
‘Oops… !’
The next moment, at the same time as Mona felt a sharp sense of life, that light was already flying in from behind.
At Mona’s feet, the shadows fill the hallway.
Just as Mona was hiding a moment ago, the intruder was also hiding in the shadows.
And at this very moment, as if taking advantage of Mona’s momentary embarrassment, her intruder burst out of the shadows and threw her body at Mona.
The daggers held in her hands reflected the light of the magic stones, etc., And rushed toward Mona’s slender neck without hesitation.
Like the teeth of an animal.
In an attempt to suffocate the prey, two daggers fly in with flashes of light… !
