Chapter 99 The Scary Side Of Rosalier-San
Maya-chan unleashed magic with a arm movement similar to a horizontal chop often seen in pro wrestling.
"Hoho, so this is what happens when you use this in a real PvP (player versus player) battle. I see, I see..."
Maya-chan's words seemed as if she had predicted the tragedy in front of her. She crossed her arms and seemed lost in thought.
"Maya-chan, what are you doing?"
"I wonder what would happen if I mastered it at a high level... Hm? What's wrong, uncle? Isn't this a low-level wind attribute magic spell?"
So this is a low-level wind attribute attack magic. Is it really this amazing?
But still, a knight? A guard? A soldier? I don't know, but the two men in the front row who were right in front of us, they were split into two with just a thin layer of skin. The red carpet-like thing is stained with a dark red color, no, it's overflowing. It's so gruesome...
"Hey Maya-chan, isn't that too much?"
"But, Uncle, didn't you say not to hold back?"
Oh well, teehee. Ahh, it's turning into a big fuss. Maya-chan, do you not feel guilty for going that far? If so, you might be kind of messed up in a way. I feel the same way though.
"Any-way, even if the opponent dies, we can somehow manage, but we can't fix the building with magic, you know? Reflect on it."
"Yes... I'm sorry."
"Goshujin-sama, could you please stop at that point? I will also make sure to firmly talk to her later."
"――Eek!"
Seeing Rosalier-san glare at her, Maya-chan lets out a short scream. Yeah, yeah, Rosalier-san's eyes are seriously scary. Namu namu...
"Yeah, I'll leave the rest to Rosalier-san. Centrena, please take care of the ones coming from behind."
'Kuu'
She's standing behind us, trying to protect us.
"Does Centrena-chan understand human words?"
"Yeah, she totally 100% understand everything."
"Amazing."
Oh no, anyway, there's a dead body in front of us, and it's freaking me out. It looked peaceful, so I don't know how long it's been since this royal castle wasn't invaded. It seems they never trained for this kind of situation.
"I-I'll protect the king."
There's an older man with fancier clothes than the others. Is he the commander? But is he okay? The people on both sides look weak.
I walk slowly, and a knight attacks me with a big sword. I use my arms to shield myself.
"Ugh! Full Recover. Alright, I'm back. Your sword skills can't cut off my hands!"
My stats in 'Display Self-Status' were higher than humans in terms of physical ability. I knew I was capable of something like this. You know, I used to be an indoor person. I didn't have the stamina to climb up the wall of a building using a rope.
I'm grinning as he make a bit more of an exaggerated cut on my arm, but it actually hurt a lot. Rosalier-san came up from behind him, without making me feel like she was there, and immediately decapitated the guys on either side of me.
"Maya-chan, please watch from behind with Centrena. I'll give you a proper turn later."
"Understood."
'Kuu'
I make a batten with my arms and keep moving forward. I will be the shield and Rosalier will be the attacker. I've used this strategy in online games as well. At that time, I was carrying a shield and a hammer.
It hurts a bit, but it's kind of fun. It seems like Rosalier-san understands what I'm trying to do. I'm going to take the sword holder and she defeat them from behind.
Oh no, the corridor was full of people, but now it's full of dead bodies. I kick and flip them with my feet, then open the nearest room, but no one's there. I dump the bodies there. Tie them up, put a muzzle on, blindfold, and dump them. Just repeat that 10 times.
"Rosalier-san, Maya-chan, Centrena. I'll be back after resurrecting them a bit."
"Going to the bathroom, right? Just go."
"Hey, I just need to think about something."
I enter the room where I dumped the bodies and cast 'Resurrect' every time I touch them. Ah, even the one that was split in half by Maya-chan is coming back. Ew, it's gross.
"Okay. Ready."
"Goshujin-sama"
"Hmm?"
"I think if Maya-san's magic is trained, it will make area annihilation easier."
"Well, that's true, but we won't be doing this forever, right? I just hope that at least it will become easier to collect Magic Beast subjugation magic stones."
"That's certainly true. I'm also looking forward to the day when I can go out together."
It's not like, "Let's go hunting together," you know. Well, Rosalier-san actually did it before.
Anyway, there are two doors. Now, which one are they behind? It was quite a commotion, so they probably know we're here too.
"Yes, that's right. There are five people on the right side. There seems to be three people on the left side. ...I think the left side is probably the correct answer."
"I see. Then let's go from the right side. Centrena, keep watch in the next room, okay?"
'Kuu'
"Alright, I'm going to open the door, so Maya-chan, are you ready for another round like earlier?"
"Yeah. I think I'm still good to go!"
"Alright, 3, 2, 1, here we go"
"Air Cutter. Oh, Air Cutter, Air Cutter"
Is it really three shots? When I peeked inside quietly, it was chaos. Although it didn't reach the walls, the knight-like people inside were all sliced up. Yeah, it's not a pretty sight.
"Maya-chan, it's overkill. Too much."
"Tehee."
I went inside and eww, it's disgusting... It's unavoidable that they're all tied up and cut up. Let's prepare this and that. It'll be over when I use the 'Resurrect' spell for the number of people.
But, I'm not worried about my mana decreasing at all.
"Well then, if this place turns out to be a dud, we'll have to search somewhere else."
"Yeah, but it would be interesting if there were traps here."
"Huh? By traps, do you mean like human bombs?"
"No, not like that, Uncle. That's really gross, you know?"
"I see."
"Are you two really not siblings?"
"Yeah."
"Yeah."
Ah, Centrena accidentally stepped on something.
"What did you step on, Centrena?"
'Kuu?'
"Oh, well..."
"Yes."
It seems like they heard the commotion from downstairs. It seems like three people were stepped on. They probably got caught by Centrena, got kicked, and then tragically stepped on to death. That's how it seemed.
"Oh no, this is annoying. Let's just drag them to the room for now..."
"This, this is tough."
"It's their fault for approaching Centrena without caution."
"Yeah, I guess so."
Anyway, I tied up their hands and feet, making sure not to merge them, then dragged each one separately and repeated the process of tying them up.
"For now 'Resurrect'. if it doesn't work, then just rest in peace."
"You're so nonchalant, Uncle."
"So, did it work?"
"Sort of."
"Phew, that's a relief. I was worried about what to do if a chimera was created."
"Wouldn't that be fun?"
"No, it wouldn't."
"Are you sure?"
I managed to revive the remaining two as well. It was close, wasn't it? It seemed like something was about to mix in. From now on, I need to be careful.
"Well, I guess this is probably all that's left in this royal castle. The officials are probably hiding, I suppose."
"Yeah, that's right. Nelliza-san wasn't there."
Ah, Nelliza-san, how nostalgic. She was the official with the Hero back then.
"Oh, right. There was someone else, right? When they found out I wasn't the Hero, they kept showing me my status plate."
"Yeah, that's right. What did they say? I think it was Ikirīsu (Irresponsible?), uncle."
"Ugh. Isn't that just the same as 'Ikiri (?)'?"
"Oh, maybe it was Ikirāsu (poser)? I think that was the name."
"Close, but not quite."
"Still, the assistant official with the Hero was demoted."
"Huh?"
"That person, yeah. Maybe it's better not to talk about the person who's no longer here."
Seems like she's lost in thought. Something must have happened, huh?
"Well, now it's time for today's main event. It's a showdown of three matches with the royal family."
"Wasn't it supposed to be the 'Operation Overthrow the Royal Family'?"
"Yeah, you could say that."
"Haha. You two really do look alike, don't you?"
Seems like Rosalier-san's temper has cooled down. I think that's a good thing though.
