I Favor the Villainess

99. Assassins

"What are you going to do, Ray!!

I woke up in the college room. Lady Claire said that at the opening when she caught an eye on me.

"Please calm down, Master Claire"

"Can this calm you down! Someone who could be you, blind your eyes wrongfully, etc!

Master Claire harshly disputed me.

"Are you still this Claire-François partner!

I usually almost add tea, but if I do that now, I can decisively lose faith.

We need to explain it properly.

"Dear Claire. I didn't unjustly close my eyes. We will pursue the matter of Suras and the matter of Dollar properly and fraudulently."

"Huh...?

Until then, as the momentum was a lie, Master Claire's discourse weakened.

"So, but, Ray? You're in the mouth of Suras..."

"I just pretended to ride. There's nothing to aim for."

"Aim...?

A question mark appears on Master Claire's face.

"Yes, more than that, please help me find Master Lily"

"Cardinal Lilli? What's wrong with her?

"I made a mistake that I didn't explain beforehand, but just like Claire, she jumped out thinking I was in a surrus truck."

"You're really making a mistake."

You wanted me to, too, and Lady Claire spills.

"Anyway, we need to find her"

"I get it. Well, let's split up."

"No, that doesn't work either. It's somewhat dangerous."

"Danger?"

"... excuse me, Master Claire. I don't seem to have time to explain."

When I pulled Master Claire's arm and got her out of bed, I set myself up trying to protect her from the door.

"Set it up, Master Claire."

"Huh? Huh?

Kachiri, and made a very small noise, and the door was unlocked.

Master Claire finally realized what was going on, and took out the magic wand and set it up.

The door opens quietly and about six men slip in from there.

"Who are you!?

Suras' assassin, sir.

I know you're one of those private soldiers who was in Suras' room, but you're not wearing crested armor or anything.

He wears a black bobble cloth and a white mask on his face.

Sarace said she wanted to make a deal, but she wouldn't expose him to that.

It was the real deal to lie about the shavings on the spot and turn them off.

I wasn't the only one who pretended to be in the truck.

"You're thorough with the Three Man Cell again."

"Shh, Three?

"It means we're trying to stop our breath at any rate."

"Well, I guess so."

Lady Claire nodded and said this with a cane to the men.

"Come on, call me! This Claire-François, let him escape and hide -"

"Ahhh! Murderers!"

I screamed out loud, blocking Master Claire from trying to cut her.

Master Claire made a face that said yes.

In this scene, in the game, it's a scene where you can leave the assassin with the target of the offense, but this is what I always thought.

Why didn't you call for help?

This is the college dorm.

Which naturally means there are a lot of people.

Two to six is pretty tough, but if you raise your voice like this...

"What is it!

"What's the scream now!?

"Are you all right, Master Claire!

This is right.

People keep coming together.

If it was a game, it would take away the opportunity to play the offensive target and ruin it, but nothing stretches back.

As much as Claire has something to do, I can't help but call for help.

Well, this is also a reflection during the civilian movement.

……

The men wandered for a moment, but resisted without fleeing.

Perhaps they are held weak by Suras.

It could be money, it could be the life of a family.

I cannot know that, but I wonder how deadly the weakness is.

The men continued to fight without surrendering to the end, killing themselves when they were about to be seized.

"Oh my goodness..."

Lady Claire's groaning was, of course, something that was accusing Suras of.

"Yah. Where it doesn't matter, it's nice."

A bright voice echoed that didn't fit on the spot.

At the same time, the door to the room closed on its own.

There's a gunshot and knocking on the door from the outside, but apparently it won't open.

Moreover, those left behind on this side of the door fall one after the other.

"There it is!

Lady Claire unleashed a powerful flaming spear in the direction where the last person to fall stood.

The flaming spear flew towards the corner of the room, but then it vanished like a mirage.

"Hey, you two. I see you again."

I remember the misplaced voice color and the black mask on my face.

"During the civilian movement..."

"Yes, yes. I was alarmed then. Well, this time it means revenge."

This development was not envisaged.

How could this man at this time...?

"Ray, I'm late to think about it. I'll take them down anyway."

"Yes, sir."

Certainly Master Claire is right.

"Oh, wow. But don't think it's gonna be that easy, okay?

Laughing at him, the black mask set up a knife.

"Be careful, Master Claire. Probably Cantarella."

"Yes."

Remembering when Lady Sain was attacked, I urged Lady Claire to be vigilant.

Lady Claire replies, staring without alarm.

"Hmmm...... I don't know what to do."

"If you're not coming, I'll go here!

When Master Claire waves the wand, a flaming spear arrives at the base of the black mask.

But...

"Ha, mundane"

On the verge of striking a man directly, all of the flaming spears disappear, just like they did earlier.

What the hell kind of magic is this?

"Basically, what do you do when you call me when you attack? If you want to..."

And before I finish, the man disappears.

"Come on!"

"For example, like this, right?

The distance was quickly packed and the black mask was slashed by Master Claire.

Master Claire manages to distance herself.

Even Master Claire, who excelled in martial arts, was critical.

If I were you, I wouldn't think I could react.

"Freeze."

I activate the water attribute magic "Giudecca" that I once used on the Manarian stylist to stop the movement.

If you keep connecting to Earth Pike and complete "Coquitos" -.

"That's why I'm so wasted."

A man who seemed frozen for a moment but instantly recovered from the freeze.

No way. This man, the same spellbreaker user as Master Manaria?

"Mmm. But I'm sorry. You two together. Then you're going to lose it."

"Challenge yourself to come and see me."

"'Cause it's an order. Hey. I don't mean it either."

There are no shards of tension, but when I see that Master Claire doesn't set it up, I guess there are no gaps.

"Oh. I will. Yah."

Suddenly saying so, the masked man ran towards the door.

Kick through the door without killing momentum as it is.

You're surprised the door suddenly opened, the crowd groping in the hallway cracks.

Through that gap, the man escaped the room.

"Wait!

"No, Master Claire. Master Lily's safety checks first now!

I stopped Lady Claire from chasing me.

If the assassin is the hand of Suras, the devil's hand should extend to Master Lily.

And I thought,

"Mr. Ray! Dear Claire!"

Someone in the vortex appeared from the other side.

It is Master Lily.

"Good... You're safe."

"Dear Lily...... Why are you here?

I was relieved, at the same time, of my doubts.

"Ya, I knew I didn't think Mr. Ray would say that for no reason... I came to ask why, but then you two were attacked by a man."

Master Lily cried out as she was.

"Rest assured, Master Lily. Master Claire and I are safe. I'm sorry for your concern."

"Ho, it's true..."

Master Lily won't stop crying, so I have no choice but to stroke her head up.

"Ray. Just explain the situation to the dorm supervisor. And Cardinal Lilly needs an explanation."

"Right."

The whole dorm got fussy that day.

We were to be chased to tidy things up, and it wasn't until noon the next day that we were free to move.

But our counterattack starts here.
