Even Though I was the Real Saint, I was Exiled—Which Means my Country is Over (WN)
84. You underestimate me.
It goes back a little bit.
"Nh... where are we?
A dull headache.
My consciousness awakened and I slowly opened my eyes.
Elaine, have you noticed?
Ralph.
Looks like I was sleeping on Ralph's pillow.
No... is it correct to say that you were unconscious in this case?
"Ralph. What the hell is going on?
As you can see. Ralph and the others were captured by a mysterious group and brought here. * giggle *... Ralph is here. There's no excuse for that dragon man. "
Ralph looks depressed.
I stroked Ralph's back comfortingly, saying, "You're not bad."
"Ugh... oneechan, I'm sorry. It's all my fault...."
"This child is not bad! If you blame me, please blame me!
In the same room, there were children and women who looked like their mothers.
Both were terrified and apologized repeatedly.
"It's not your fault. And I'm glad you're safe."
Smile and don't scare me.
Nevertheless.
"Looks like it was a trap..."
I was alarmed.
Now we're trapped in a jail-like place.
I put my hand on the iron lattice door and tried to open it, but it didn't sting. Furthermore, the door is magically locked, and it seems impossible to open it by force.
Hehe, did you finally wake up?
In doing so, a crowd approached me.
He has wings from his back and two horns on his head.
From the appearance of that anomaly, it seems that at least we are not human beings who have trapped us here.
"Are you... a demon race?
"You know exactly what I mean."
The demon clan smiled disgusting with Niyaniya.
The demon race —— it should be a rare thing to show up in public.
I can hear multiple different voices from other places as well as this demon tribe.
I don't know where this is, but I don't think we're the only ones in there.
"How did you guys get me here until you used such a little kid?
I asked without much expectation.
You're hostages.
And the answer came back.
Probably relaxed, convinced of the victory. Stupid.
"Hostages?"
"Our Lord Bardul and his men are now going to the spirits. Lord Bardul is strong, but it is bad to face the Spirit from the front. That's why I'm holding you hostage and negotiating with the spirits."
——
I can't help but lose my words when I'm told something I can't abandon.
The demon tribe stunned me from behind while I was talking to a child in need.
His spirits... they must mean Philip and the others.
You mean it was set up from the beginning?
"Get me out of here. Take me to the spirits immediately."
"Ha! Even in this situation, I don't know if you want to look at me like that... but I'm sure you can't! I'll tell you one thing, don't think about escaping. You can't open this door in the first place, and even if you can get out of that room, there are a lot of demons here besides me. I wonder if you guys with legs and hands can get out of here?
The demons said joyfully and sat in a nearby chair.
I knew it, but you're not going to let it out easily.
"Oneechan... we'll be fine.
"I can't bother you. But... no matter what happens to me, can you just save this kid?
Turning to the back, the child and his mother spoke anxiously.
But...
"It's okay. I'll help you both."
I'm not going to abandon you both. And of course Ralph.
That's what the demons laughed at me about.
But if I'm going to escape alone, I have to protect these people's lives.
It may be a bad way to put it, but it's enough.
The demon tribe hasn't killed these two yet because of this calculation.
I get angry with the mean means.
Elaine, what are you going to do? If you wait, Nigel and the Dragon Man may come to rescue you, but we don't have much time to do this. "
"Yes, I understand."
I don't know what's going on with Philip and the others while we're doing this.
But the demons here seem to be licking me a little too much.
I started communicating with someone when I was in the city, using a reminder.
"... hmm? What's the matter, Elaine? It's not unusual for you to come and talk to me."
Douglas' voice.
Great. Looks like we're not too far from the city.
There was also magic to discourage conversation, but there was no problem with this. Or do you think there is nothing you can do even if you talk about it?
Douglas. I don't have the time, so I'll tell her briefly. Looks like I've been detained by a demon clan. "
Nah, what!?
Douglas's voice makes me nervous.
I stayed silent and kept on talking to Douglas just in my head.
Can you tell Nigel right away?
Okay... but if you're caught, Nigel won't be able to move too flashy. Can you get out of there alone?
Hmm, I think I can get out of the locked up room. But there seems to be a lot of sentinel demons out there, and it's hard to do it alone. "
"I see... but the fact that I can preach like this means that the demons are underestimating you."
That's right.
I wonder if it is because the information has not been conveyed properly, and the packing is sweet everywhere.
Do you think I'm trapped here and keeping quiet?
You think I'm a princess waiting for the prince's help?
But... I'm sorry.
Failure to carry (...) and (...) inspect (...) objects was the fatal failure of the demons.
So Douglas. I'm going to do this, so you 're-- '
Communicate the plan.
Then Douglas said, "Okay," and cut the conversation.
All right.
We're getting out of jail!
"Even so, this woman is quite good. Can I give you a hand before Master Baldur gets here?
"Stop it. The woman seems to be the key to the ceremony, as Bardul says. If you hurt me, I won't do it for free."
"Chi... I'm pinching. I can't believe you're babysitting a girl like this. But I can't allow you to disobey Master Baldur...."
When I noticed, other demons appeared in front of the prison and talked about our treatment.
Well, it doesn't matter how many people we gather.
Um, I'm sorry.
I speak to the two demons.
"A little... I'd like to go to the bathroom, where should I go?
"Ahhh? That's not true. Keep it there. I'll take a look at it."
"Ah, um... I'm a woman too, so that's embarrassing. Could you turn around, please?
"Ha! Who wants to say that your orders are... but if you treat them strangely, Bardull may be angry at you later. Last mercy. I'll turn around for three seconds. That's it."
"Haha! You're not gonna finish the girls' toilet in three seconds!
While laughing, the two demons strayed from me.
But... three seconds is enough.
Yes.
I immediately put my hand on the jail door and activated my magic.
... the magic manipulation was taught to me by Robert!
In less than a second, the lock of the cell came off physically and magically and opened with a clicking sound.
"Ahhh?
But the demons soon realized it.
"Hey, what kind of hand are you...?!
"Douglas!
I hid something in my clothes before the demons attacked me.
It 's-- it's a jewel from Douglas.
When magic poured into the jewels, a divine light enveloped the area.
And when the light runs out...
"Aren't the demons quite brave enough to take Eliane away? You know who this is, and you imitate her like that?
A man with his arms tied up in a disgraceful manner appeared before me.
Douglas, it's a summons.
