Chapter 88 – Where Are They?
Weird.
I felt it today as I saw Rumia who was away.
Certainly, her movements these past few days have been a lot strange to her.
“Um… “
And I was sure.
Rumia is doing something behind our backs.
I mean something magical.
“What’s the matter?”
As I was sitting in the chair with a worried expression on my face, Cecilia came up to me after finishing the meal and asked what was going on.
Ruril was also interested in the conversation between me and Cecilia.
“That’s a bit sensitive, but… “
Should I be sensitive?
It’s because I don’t understand Rumia’s behavior these days.
If you ask why it’s a sensitive story, there is only one story to answer.
She hadn’t had her day off for the past few days because she’d been mixing her body with her every day.
Violently too.
“Sensitive? Story?”
Cecilia, who looked as if she didn’t understand my words for a moment, turned red.
Why are you reacting like that?
If…
“Ugh… “
“Ah… Did you hear me?”
“Yes… “
“… “
Ah…
Was it like that too?
I thought it was audible because it was being done inside the ship, but did Cecilia and Ruril in the next room hear it?
I covered my face with one hand in embarrassment.
If I knew it would end like this, I would have told Lumia to be quiet…
We were so focused on each other that we forgot to keep our voices down.
“Sorry… “
“Oh, no, I have nothing to be sorry about! Of course you should… Because it is.”
“No, I’m really sorry. I honestly have nothing to say. I said I rejected your confession because I didn’t want the party to break up, but I’m not even considerate of you because I have to subdue the demon king… “
My fault is right
At the very beginning, when I revealed this fact, I said that and even apologized directly, but when it comes to Rumia and I, we are doing everything without paying attention to the people around us… Even with ten mouths, there was nothing to say.
I bowed my head.
“Really sorry… “
“Ah, no, it’s okay if you don’t really apologize! Rather, how about continuing the story about Lumia?”
“Ah… “
Yes, the story about Lumia was just as important.
When I first got on the ship, I wondered if the ship was so strange that I went to see it, but after a few days, I realized that it wasn’t like that.
It was two days ago that I started having her doubts and it was only after looking a few more times that I noticed Rumia was doing something magical.
It was because she looked too tired every time she came to her at night to do anything else.
Not only that, but he came to my room exhausted because his mana ran out to the point of being suspicious, and even though he had run out of mana and had a hard time moving, he even asked me to mix his body.
And since he disappears early in the morning…
It was to the extent that I could clearly see with my own two eyes that they were doing a bunch.
“I checked it today just in case.”
I found out that it was taking away my mana very minutely and little by little.
It was an unexpected supply of magic attribute.
“The reason why Rumia tried to mix her body with me was probably because she lacked magic power. I took her power supply and took it. So subtly and skillfully so that I don’t notice.”
“That… “
“Yes, it must be because he is a wizard.”
As a magician, he has a skill that is incomparable to others when it comes to manipulating magical powers minutely.
Even though I’m a hero, there’s no way I’m just a warrior after all, and I can’t be aware of the finely controlled magical power.
Even that will be restored in the morning, so if you wake up in the morning after doing it so intensely, there’s no way you’ll notice if your mana is back to normal.
The reason it took two days was because I was watching my magic in a different way than before.
“If you put everything together, maybe… They seem to be preparing for the upcoming raid.”
“You mean the raid I was talking about earlier?”
He nodded at Cecilia’s question.
Since I had told everyone beforehand, Cecilia knew well what I was trying to say.
It was a story that the succubus queen was attacking directly, which was hardly believable, but everyone already knew who I was.
I knew that I had already gone through everything and returned to the past to save Rumia.
I’m glad everyone believed in me.
Really…
Come to think of it, Rumia was always like that.
Most of these things tended to be done by myself.
“I wish I could tell you… “
It is good to prepare yourself.
Even so, isn’t it enough to cause concern to others?
“Then that… Shall we go find it together?”
“Do you want to go find it?”
“You said Rumia was preparing her something, right? She’s probably preparing now, so shouldn’t she just go looking for Rumia?”
It won’t be bad
Until now, she thought that Rumia was wandering around because she wanted to go out alone, but she noticed that she was doing something to prepare for the succubus queen, and now she had no choice but to find it.
She thought to find out and see what she was up to.
“Then together… “
“Let her separate, and when we find her, let her gather at the central fountain. Is it 30 minutes?”
“Ah, yes… Okay… “
She was Cecilia, whom she was trying to find together, but Ruril heard the whole story and proposed with a clear smile.
Three people can find it in about 30 minutes.
Yeah, that wasn’t bad.
“Okay, let’s do that.”
“Then I’ll go first!”
At my words, Ruril left her seat with an excited expression.
Come to think of it, she was a bored Ruril because she had nothing to do after coming into the ship, so she might be enjoying herself because she has something to do now that she has to find Rumia.
I looked for a while in the direction where Ruril disappeared, and then I too stood up.
“I’ll go look for it too.”
Where is it
It was very inefficient to search everywhere, so it was important to think from Rumia’s point of view as much as possible while walking around.
The fact that it always came to me with insufficient magical power, in other words, did something magical with this ship.
And the biggest problem I’ve described.
It was the unique charm of a succubus queen.
Lumia in the past had explained that it was mental magic that came out naturally as a racial characteristic.
Because of the enchantment all over the ship, most of the knights and nobles had memories of being busy coveting each other’s bodies without coming to their senses before they could fight.
Let’s think about that part.
In the case of Cecilia, a saint, and Rumia, a wizard, En Rumia has good mental protection, and Cecilia is not good at it because she is a saint, while Ruril was a relatively ordinary elven archer, so he fell in love with them.
And he was about to run over me right next to him.
Fortunately, thanks to Rumia’s quick purification magic and spirit-type protection magic, she was able to defeat the Demon King with her party members and barely win.
In other words, there was a good chance that now that he had been notified in advance, he would do something to prevent it from happening at all.
So what action to take?
“A barrier to block enchantment magic all over the ship?”
Or, when a status ailment came, she might have cast a spell that could alleviate the status ailment on everyone.
However, if it was to remove the status ailments that were inflicted on everyone, there would be no way to take magic from me for such a long time.
That said, it meant one thing.
“You’re trying to make sure that the charm itself doesn’t work.”
Other than that, I can’t really explain it.
In other words, they are trying to spread barriers throughout the ship so that they can block all mental attacks.
Although he was not well versed in magic, it was conceivable that in order to create a barrier to cover the ship, a magic circle was set up on the outside of the ship and the magic was channeled.
Then…
Rumia will be running around outside of her.
She’s probably walking around the outer part and setting up magic circles.
‘Then why don’t we go around the outer part?
I’m not sure, but 30 minutes was enough to walk around the outer part of the ship.
It’ll be a bit of a nuisance to the people around you, but it’ll be fine since people rarely go around.
I applied a little force and moved quickly.
I don’t know if I can go around all the floors, but let’s think about this too.
If you want to create a barrier, you’ll need to install it all over the world…
“I wonder if we can look around the first floor and the top floor.”
Let’s look around the entire first floor and the top floor and go to the center.
If you are on the 3rd floor, you should be able to walk around in 30 minutes.
I sped up a bit.
