Louisa rushes to Brigitta at full speed, holding the sabre. I'll follow the tacket soon, but I can't catch up.

Brigitta, who was under the stairs that followed upstairs, did not move as if she had been stunned by surprise. Louisa grabs Brigitta's body with both hands and lifts it gently, putting a saber blade on her white, thin neck.

"Hehe. Now we have a match."

Then he showed Brigitta, who was holding him in his chest, and the sabre he had hit on his neck, to the tucket running from behind.

"Oops. Stop right there. If you don't want this girl to be in pain, listen to me very carefully."

and Louisa stopped her words. Because Brigitta stuck his chin with a little thin finger like that doll from below.

"What's up, little girl? Forgive me if I get violent..."

Louisa's expression changed surprisingly as she looked closer at Brigitta's face in her arms. And finally, Louisa hardened like a stone and stopped moving. I looked at the left eye of Brigitta with my eyeballs off and petrified it.

When the balance collapsed and the bridge was about to fall backwards, the caught up tackle was finally supported by one hand. Of course, don't forget to keep your eyes closed. If you look at Brigitta's left eye, it will petrify you.

"* Giggle *. It's not too exciting."

Brigitta smiles with exhilaration. The tacket kept its eyes closed.

"... just put on your eyelids. It's heavy and it looks like it's going to fall."

When I complained, I was hit in the head with a pepper.

"I helped you, but you're not saying that. In the first place, Sochi is weak, so you don't have to deal with a thief alone.

Absolutely right, so there is no objection, but the attitude from the top is a bit annoying. When I pulled the supporting arm slightly and let it twitch, Brigitta stuck to me and said, "What are you doing?! Stupid bait!"

"I'm sorry..."

"Look, you can open your eyes now."

When I opened my eyes, Brigitta's left eye was covered with eyelids as usual.

I'll take her hand and help her get off Louisa, and then I'll roll her in the corner of the hall so she doesn't get in the way. I tried to pick up the saber that Louisa was holding, but the petrified hand didn't open at all, so I gave up.

"So, Mandragora. He said he found it upstairs."

"Yes, that's right. Come on, look at this."

That said, Brigitta points to the handrail on the stairs. The polished shing gold handrail had something sticky on it. Looks like the same red wine we found in the food warehouse.

Red wine stains appeared on the handrail and a little on it.

"Did Mandragola go up here after a red wine bath at the food warehouse?"

I see. So Karon and I went upstairs and followed after Shizukuishi, and we arrived at the study. Now, put your earplugs on again before you go upstairs. If they scream, they'll be dead in no time. "

As I was told, when I refilled the earplugs and raised the stairs, there was indeed a dot of shizukushi in the corridor on the second floor. Beyond that, there is only one door open. The shadow of the door also had the appearance of a beast, Karon. It seems that he is asking how he is from there.

When he realized that the tacket was approaching, Karon pointed his finger into the room with a cum. When Karon and I changed places and the tacket put their back on the door, I just peeked into the study with my face out.

That was the right room to call it a study.

The walls on both sides are filled with bookshelves that reach up to the ceiling, and the books are tightly packed one step at a time. There are also sofas for reading books and tables for writing, and it's like a small library.

And almost in the middle of the room. There were creatures there that I had never seen before. The creature sits on the floor and looks enthusiastically at the book.

(There he is... this is him...!

It was a small beast about 50 centimeters long, as expected.

Something like long light green hair covers your body. From all over the hairs, there were thistles and stems, and small leaves everywhere. The face is also covered with a long beard of the same color as the hair, and the hand attached to the book is wrinkled like a root, giving it an overall grandfathery appearance.

It is a beast that is both a plant and an animal.

Definitely. It must have been Mandragola who drove the inhabitants of this mansion to death.

I don't look like I'm screaming at the moment.

I was just reading the book in front of me.

(If we catch him, we'll do it now.)

Taketo looked at Karon next to him, and Karon nodded.

Quickly, when I put the Spirit Gun into a holster, I took down the backpack that was hanging on my shoulder and took out some folded leather bags from inside.

As originally planned, I'm going to put Mandragora in this. Then, they wrap it up many times and take it outside the Mansion, trapping it in a stone cage brought by Ulu and taking it to a remote place.

(I wonder if this kind of leather bag can really prevent the "scream of death".)

Slightly... no, I'm pretty worried. But I couldn't find any other way to carry it safer than this, so I had to try. I thought about petrifying and carrying her out with the power of Brigitta's eyes, but her eyes didn't seem to work for plants, so I passed as the first choice.

Taketo gives Karon two leather bags. I refilled the earplugs and held several leather bags in my hand, and the two nodded again.

(... I guess I have to go.)

What if they scream? Honestly, I couldn't help feeling anxious about it. Because I have an earplug, I get a loud beat in my ear.

As Taketo swallowed his saliva, he took a step into the study.

Mandragora is in the middle of the room without noticing it at all.

As the tacket stepped into the room, it ran towards Mandragola. I can't hear the footsteps, but Karon will be following me from behind.

I can't escape, so I'll run with all my might. And as I approached Mandragora at once, I lifted the leather bag and put it on my head. Lie down immediately and tie your mouth with a string. At that time, Mandragora finally noticed something unusual and moved around in the bag.

Nevertheless, Kalon tied the bag's mouth with a further cover while avoiding the book in front of Mandragola.

"I'm sorry... I have to catch you."

Yes, while the tacket murmurs, the hand moves quickly to recommend the work. So, after tightly tightening the mouth of the quadruple leather bag, I finally took a breath.

Fortunately, Mandragora hasn't screamed so far. Occasionally, it's moving in the bag, but it's not a magical beast with sharp nails or fangs, so you won't have to worry about being torn from the inside.

"Well, I have to get this out of here...."

When I raised my face with that thought in mind, something cold came into contact with the cheek of the bait. Smooth, hard feel. It stretched from behind, like a blade of a sword.

I can't move. Someday, there's a sign of someone behind me. Karon is next door, so neither is he. Not to mention the short bridge.

When I moved my face slightly and forced myself to look behind, I felt pain on my cheeks.

My cheek was cut by the blade that was hit. Still, I looked behind me. A stranger stood behind the tacket with a nasty smile on his face.

It's not just behind the tacket. Behind Caron. And then, one day, there were three strange men in the study.

(Ah, shit... I didn't realize Mandragora was distracting me...)

Moreover, now that I have a hard earplug, I was unable to detect any signs with the sound.

Brigitta must have caught on to one of them.

It was rough. I should have guessed. There was only one thief inside, so naturally we should have thought about other people hiding out. And yet, I wasn't thinking about Mandragora that much.

While the blade was pressed against his throat, Taketo glanced up at the man in front of him smiling.

(These are Louisa's buddies... probably poachers. You're here to steal Mandragola. But... I can't give it to you.)
