Clearing an Isekai with the Zero-Believers Goddess – The Weakest Mage among the Classmates

Lesson 317: Makoto Takatsuki reunites with the Shrine Maiden of the Sun

"Queen Noelle...?"

A dim prison underground.

There was Her Majesty the Queen of the Sun.

Why are you here...? However, the 'crisis-sensing' skill reacted before thinking about it.

There are two guards in front of the prison where Queen Noel is being held.

(...... "Hidden" Skill)

Hide the signs in a hurry.

However, both of them seemed unmotivated and blurred, and they didn't notice that they were far away.

"You're not running away, are you, Master?"

The black cat (Tsui) is strangely looking at us.

"Let's help Queen Noelle." Black Cat, help me. "

Wasn't she the woman that Furiae-sama hated?

"It's my friend's wife. You can't abandon me. My spirit magic is too powerful, and the water spirits are not well right now, so it's difficult to get help. Do you have a good hand?"

"I see... you want to borrow the help of a cat, Master." Fufu, I can't help but rely on you that much. "

"...... ahh, that's helpful"

Is he really a cat while using my magic?

When we're talking, somebody might have been reincarnated.

Thinking of it like that, the black cat cutely snorted "Nyaooooo" as she approached the prison where Queen Noel was being held.

Looks like the guards noticed.

"What is this cat? Are you lost?"

Poor thing, the cellars in the basement are like a maze.

"Hey, I don't hate stroking this thing."

“You're so friendly. You're a cat keeper.

"I'll give you a ride to the ground."

One of the guards, whether he likes cats or not, stretches out his arm and holds up the black cat.

The next moment, the black cat's eyes glowed sharply.

― ― Curse of the Moon Magic and Sleep

"...... Huh?"

The two guards fell into the dark cat's magic and collapsed into the spot.

And I can hear the snoring "googly".

I slowly approached Twi so as not to stretch my legs.

When did you learn such magic?

"I was taught by Furiae-sama."

A black cat who answers my questions in a frizzy way.

Furiae-san... what are you teaching me?

But now I'm saved.

Queen Noel, who is in prison, is lazy and hasn't noticed us.

I thought I was asleep, but I raised my face suddenly as if I had noticed my sign.

Oh, Makoto-sama!?

"Quiet."

I sent a gesture to Queen Noelle, who was about to shout, pointing her finger at her mouth.

"... how did you get here?"

"The demon used it to help me." It's a coincidence that I discovered Queen Noel. ”

"Nyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa"

The black cat cries in response.

Well, you adorable demon user.

"Let's get out of jail for now."

I said that and pulled out the goddess (Noah) 's dagger.

There was a magic lock on the door of the prison that unleashed a terrible magic power (mana).

"Makoto-sama... this cell is locked (locked) with a particularly strong barrier magic." If it weren't for a king or higher in the barrier magic user..... "

Queen Noel explains something, but time is running out, so I swing my dagger down.

- Kang.

And the magic lock broke in two.

Huh?

I slowly open the door of the prison, looking down at the face of Queen Noel, who will be taken away from me.

The door was opened without making any particular noise as to whether it was being maintained.

"Ah, um... how did you do that..."

“Let's talk about the details later. Can you stand up?"

"Yes, but I can't get out of here. Look at my feet. These shackles are connected to the" Chain of the Earth "and I can't escape. This magic chain can only be broken if it is a weapon of the hero's Holy Sword class....."

- Kim.

I cut off the chains that bound Queen Noel's legs.

"...... What about you?"

Her Majesty Queen Noel was hardened by her ladies' frivolous voice and expression.

Well, let's get out of here.

"No, no, no, no, no! Master Makoto!? How did you do that?!"

I'll explain to you on the way.

"Hah, hah..."

Queen Noel followed quietly, even though she had an unconvincing face.

"The stone is your master's artifact that has torn apart the chains of heaven." The national treasure magic tool is like a toy. "

"The cat is talking about tearing apart the chains of heaven!?"

Queen Noel's eyes were black and white as if they were confused.

I don't know what he's talking about.

I told you the story was a secret.

Hey, Tsubaki.

"... I'm sorry, Master. My mouth slipped."

It's too late for a sad face to apologize.

Your Majesty Queen Noel, please don't take the cat's joke seriously.

"Um... this cat's demon speaks fluently." Besides, I heard that one of the highest ranking treasures in the Land of the Sun, the "Heavenly Chain", had been torn apart.... "

Hahaha, that's not how it works.

A cold sweat travels through my back.

”... you just slashed the [Earth Chain], didn't you?”

Let's get out of here!

Yes, yes.

Switch the topic forcefully.

I need your help, but I'll have to discuss it with Tsui later.

The two of them and one of them proceeded through a dimly lit underground maze.

The guide is a black cat.

Dive deeper into the maze of mysterious jails.

The chunky candles and lights illuminate the foot.

For a while, only the footsteps resounded in silence.

Here, Master, you can go out to the abandoned house in Kowloon City with your shadow magic and shadow crossing.

Then, in the black hole floating in the sky, the black cat suddenly entered.

"Queen Noel, please go ahead." There shouldn't be any danger. "

"Yes, yes..."

In a gesture of awakening, Queen Noel enters a black hole across the shadows.

I followed.

Moments of darkness.

Next, a blurry ray of sunlight entered my eyes.

"What is this place...?"

Apparently, it looks like a vacant house.

Princess Noel is holding her mouth with her handkerchief.

It must be because it looks like dust.

It was a desolate indoor space that had been inhabited for years.

"Now, I want to move somewhere..."

I look at Queen Noel's outfit.

It's a flashy dress that catches my eye even though I'm a little tired because I've been in jail for a long time.

If you walk around the city in that outfit, you'll find out you're the Queen in no time.

Queen Noel also noticed the meaning of my gaze.

"I'm sorry, Master Makoto." I don't have a change of clothes with me.... "

"It can't be helped." Twi, can you find me a change of clothes for Queen Noelle? "

"Your husband is a rough cat... please wait a moment"

That said, Toto... disappeared into the shadows.

"Shall we wait?" Is there somewhere I can sit...?... water magic and washing "

I washed a chair that seemed to be able to sit in somehow with water magic.

Here you go.

Thank you very much.

Queen Noel will obey your offer.

I sat on the ground near it.

…………

A slight silence reaches us.

I was choosing the words to hear from.

"... how well does Master Makoto understand the current situation?"

I was asked a question earlier.

"Well, after being stunned by the Devil King, I woke up in a room in the royal castle..."

I explained what happened in the last few days.

And Queen Noel told me what happened, but unfortunately, the information she had was no different from mine.

I see, so you don't know what happened after the ceremony.

Looks like you've been trapped just like me.

"All my acquaintances were [fascinated] by the witch of the disaster." Lucy, Saiu-san, even Princess Sophia.... "

"Yes... so am I. Even the Hero of Light (Ryowski) and the Great Sage..."

You met Momo with Sakurai-kun, right?

I breathe out in relief.

I was able to confirm that the two people who had not seen each other were safe.

"But... even when Ryowski looked at me, he didn't say anything... he didn't even know who I was."

Queen Noel's expression was dark.

"It's weird... even though the charm of the Light Hero shouldn't work..."

The sun is shining through the windows of the empty house we're in.

It's not like a thousand years ago when it was covered in dark clouds.

And even Momo, who is supposed to be acquainted with the witch of disaster?

"The witch who inherited power from the Great Demon King is stronger than she was a thousand years ago...?"

"... perhaps"

……

Silence reappeared.

Just talking here doesn't add to the information.

I guess I'll just have to go outside and see what's going on.

At that time.

Here you go, Master.

The black cat was coming back in time.

I have clothes for women in my mouth.

Can I have my clothes changed, Your Majesty Queen Noel?

“Yes, of course, I'll change.”

I'm going over there.

Husband, shouldn't we go too far?

"Master Makoto, I don't care." You don't have to leave. "

"...... you're looking over there." Tell me when you're done dressing. ”

I turn my back on Queen Noel with restlessness.

... Gasa... Suru...

The sound of clothes rubbing echoes.

Asked Princess Sophia, the royal family does not usually change clothes on their own.

Someone seems to be helping us out most of the time.

So I don't seem to care much about being seen by people... "

(... restless)

Count the number of sheep while using the "Bright Mirror Water" skill.

Sorry to keep you waiting.

A voice came from Queen Noel.

I look back slowly.

"What do you think? Isn't that weird?"

It looks good on you.

It was like the clothes that Sae-san wore before, like the so-called town daughters.

It didn't seem like Queen Noel was always dressed in royal costumes, but it looked surprisingly good.

“Okay, let's go. We will escape the capital from the roads that are as sparse as possible."

Yes.

Queen Noel nodded nervously.

I slowly opened the door to the abandoned house.



"This is..."

It was the world of "gray" that opened the door.

The roads, the skies, the buildings, everything seemed to be fading.

”What the hell...?”

I kept my mouth shut like Queen Noel was in shock.

Anyone would look at this view for the first time.

But I knew how it looked.

It's the same as the demon continent a thousand years ago.

"...... Master Makoto. Are you sure?"

“Yes, I'm sure.”

After that, I had a tingly, unpleasant feeling in my chest.

When I set foot on the demonic continent, I first visited a small demon village.

The demons there were weak, and we were harmless.

Later, after a battle with the allied forces of the demon kings, I also went to the king's capital of the demon continent.

The inhabitants who were there had common characteristics.

They were all "fascinated".

And this sun kingdom is in the same state as the demon continent a thousand years ago.

“Let's proceed with caution.”

Yes, Makoto-sama.

Of course, I won't make up my mind on the premature calculation.

I didn't tell Queen Noel I was uneasy.

- The people of the western continent may be fascinated by it all.

Oh, my God.

"This way, my husband, Princess Noelle."

In contrast to me and Queen Noel, who had a gloomy face, the black cat's voice was sulky.

I'm saved by that now.

"It's the Queen, Tui."

"No, I don't mind." Feel free to call me that. "

Queen Noel smiles small.

Led by a black cat, it follows the back road of Kowloon Street.

I passed a few people along the way, but I was never stopped.

However, every resident was "fascinated".

My reasoning adds to the credibility.

No, I don't know yet.

Let's think about it before we do.

Queen Noelle, do you have an address to get out of the capital and go somewhere?

"A little further south from the King's City, there is a bigger city. There were many Shrine Knights stationed there. We also have units from the South Knights, so we should be able to secure a certain amount of strength. And if you have someone who can use communication magic, you can send help to other countries.”

"Okay, let's do it."

There was no objection to the content.

As a matter of concern, we need to find a way to get around.

I wish I could procure horse-drawn carriages, but it would be difficult in the capital.

I told Queen Noel about it.

"Master Makoto, I can walk." The monastery also had all-day walking training. "

Queen Noel offered me a smile.

Princess Sophia once taught me.

The shrine maiden of the church of the goddess has the strength to escape by herself in preparation for the revived Great Demon King's army.

"Well, that's comforting..."

To be honest, my (...) health was the one I was worried about.

I was the one who pulled my legs on the move a thousand years ago.

Tsui, can you travel to the city with shadow magic?

"Unfortunately, shadow crossing is a magic way to move around the city quickly." It's not a good place for long journeys, Master. "

The rope of begging is gone.

I can't help it, let's walk... "

Oops, that's the gate.

I came to the edge of the king's city.

At the castle gate, there are guards who check the entrance and exit of the royal capital, and they are asked to show their IDs and other documents.

"I'm in trouble..."

Originally, Queen Noel was at the top of the Sun Country, so it was a Face Pass, but now she's a fugitive.

I have to hide my identity.

"I don't think there's anything..."

A silver badge (badge) came out of my pocket as I was scavenging to see if I could find my Adventurer's Guild ID.

"[]/(n, vs) (1

"It's... the emblem of King Highland (I) 's Kingsguard."

"It looks like you can use it." Queen Noel, please keep your faces hidden. "

I've received it before to participate in the military assembly, but it would be perfect under the circumstances.

The royal Guardian was a high ranking soldier, so I wouldn't be able to ask any more questions.

Queen Noel is dressed as a town daughter, and she'll be fine if she doesn't even see her face.

We lined up with people leaving the capital and showed the guards their badges.

As expected, the guard saluted me in a hurry, and I almost got through with a no-check.

Pass through a large gate.

Not far from the walls of the royal capital of Sinfonia.

Me and Queen Noelle, the black cat, took a breath when no one else was around.

"Escape successful, Master."

"Thanks, Twi." Thank you for your hard work, Queen Noel. "

"Thank you, Master Makoto." But you can't do it slowly. to ask for help from now on..... "

When I was having such a conversation.

"Oh my, where are you going quickly?" Did you like your meal in the room, Apostle? "

An elegant voice stopped me.

Turn around a little.

Until just now, there was no one there.

The RPG Player skill does not neglect the surrounding vigilance.

In other words, the opponent moved with a spatial transition (teleport).

One of the leading users of teleportation in this western continent...

"Great Sage..."

Queen Noel snorted.

There was Furia-san, the evil witch (Nevia).

Next to it is the Great Sage (Momo) with a white robe.

"Master Makoto... I'm sorry"

Momo's eyes, which he apologized for, were also clouded with gold.

"It took Momo-chan a long time to captivate me. I finally got to meet you."

A witch who smiles with a smile.

(... was it a cylinder break?)

In the end, the grey world stretches beyond the king's capital.

This was the barrier of the Witch of Disaster.

As long as he was in there, he could be under surveillance.

Because it was a wide barrier, I could not check it in detail.

Water Spirit (Deer), can you come?

Yes, my king.

I summoned the Great Spirit of Water.

In the room where I was trapped, there was a barrier that weakened the power of the water spirits.

However, he predicted that it would have no effect until outside the king's capital.

The result seems to be a hit.

"Oh, you're resisting me, Momo-chan." Please, please. "

"... uuu, I'm sorry, Makoto-sama"

Momo waved his cane in a sad voice.

As if surrounding us, various magic circles, large and small, appeared at once.

Protect Queen Noel, the Great Spirit of the Water (Dear)!

"I-I have the art of protecting myself!"

We were prepared for an attack, but the magic of the Great Sage didn't attack us.

Hundreds of immortals surround us - the demon kings of the past appeared in a spatial transition.

Some of them looked familiar.

There's also the figure of the Devil King who stunned me.

"Don't be so vigilant. I'm not going to do anything about it."

The witch who had surrounded the demon kings in all directions.

In the first place, where are we going to leave the capital?

……

We don't answer anything.

The evil witch didn't seem to care.

"Fufufu, will you answer me?" Okay, let's see. Gather strength around a city. Or perhaps you said that you would ask for cooperation from other countries. "

That word was what we were trying to do.

Anyone would be able to predict that.

But that's impossible.

"What's impossible...?"

Queen Noel unexpectedly asked questions in the confident voice of the witch of disaster.

The evil witch laughs like a giggle.

"Isn't the Apostle's prediction true?" The magic of this "grey world". All the people here are enchanted by the Moon Shrine Maiden. Because it was his magic, it was only effective against demons and demons a thousand years ago, but now Friae-chan is the "Saintess" of the Goddess Church. Moreover, the foundation of the barrier was laid by the Sun Witch Noel over there. The people who believe in either the "Holy God" or the "Evil God" can still be fascinated. "

An evil witch who keeps telling her stories.

I wonder if I'm off guard...

However, the tone of voice made me feel absolutely confident.

What is the effect range of this magic?

I ask questions under the guise of calmness.

A thousand years ago, it had fascinated all the northern continents.

So, worst of all, all of the western continent could have fallen into the hands of a disaster witch this time.

The witch of the disaster laughed at Furia-san with a face that she would never do.

"This planet (...) is all (...)"

"...... Huh?"

I couldn't understand the meaning of the word for a moment.

"That's why it's impossible for you to ask for help wherever you go." Let's go back to the Royal Castle. "

The Evil Witch smiled at us, as if to declare victory.
