I Kinda Came to Another World, but Where’s the Way Home?

"Hi-hi... are you expecting that boy too? Kufu...... fuhihihihihi" '

Dim mansions are as dim as night, even during the day. Because deep fog surrounds the mansion 24 hours a day.

And in the mansion, next to both sleeping leashes, Doran and Leila were seated. There is no chair, on the floor, but there is only one Leila who is conscious. Neither Doran nor Liesche had any way of waking up unconscious.

And a creepy voice echoing the mansion in it. He sounded fun, mean, and talked to Layla in a speaker-like voice.

But Layla takes no action against that voice. I didn't even move one finger.

No, you're not.

It's not that I won't move it - I couldn't move it.

I couldn't move my body while sitting in a gym, as if I was restrained by something I couldn't see. Only the red eyes, though slightly looking around, expand their spatial grasp of qi and be vigilant, still do not feel the signs of being the Lord of the Voice. I don't even know where we're talking from, where we are, whether we're human or demonic in the first place.

I can't get any information about them. Layla pointed her lips in a grumpy manner as she lurked her eyebrows.

"I'm coming... you're coming"

'Kuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Maybe he won't come, huh? You might have abandoned your business and gone somewhere already.

"Huh... Huh...!?

Leila usually tried to overhear words that she didn't normally believe at all.

But at that time, the video (image) runs behind Leila's brain.

An orange noise leaves the Luke's Hyde kingdom after abandoning Leila and the others.

My headache ran just for a moment, and Leila's expression was distorted. Video that is too clear and burns to impression. Anxiety passes only for a moment in Leila's mind, and it spreads. anxiety like being twitched and eroded, possibly.

I felt a little bit of cake in my heart believing in orange noise. I believe you, but, no way, maybe, that idea comes to mind and disappears.

As soon as I did, my ears touched as tall as a broken speaker I could hear. But if you want to block your ears, your body doesn't move, and if you don't want to hear it, it's a voice that echoes directly into your head, blocking it may not make sense.

"Fuhihihihi... are you coming? Do you want to come? Maybe he won't come? I'm not coming. I'm sure, duh... ♪ '

"Shut up! Tight, you're coming!

'Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!

Shut up, annoying, May fly, Ursai. Leila meditates her eyes all the time, diverting her consciousness from her deafening voice. Many times in my head I repeated that the orange noise would come.

However, if you meditate on your eyes, the earlier video (image) will clearly emerge behind your eyelids. I got a headache with a bump.

Maybe the Lord of this voice is doing something. This headache, this worst video (image) that comes up in the back of your brain, all the voices that sound directly on your head. Maybe that's the kind of attack that makes your mind squeal and scratch around your head.

That's what I came up with, Leila had no way to prevent it, no power to free herself from the forces that were holding this body.

"Heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh... it's fun"

A tall voice, like a broken speaker. The voice seemed really enjoyable and said so mean as to let Leila bear it with her eyes closed with a careless sweat.

"Shut up......! Tight you......!

The laughter sounded gusty as Leila's headache increased.

◇ ◇ ◇

- Meanwhile, around that time, Luxhide Castle.

"Ha... I found you. You're tight. I didn't expect you to come into the castle the day after we broke up."

"Oh, Alicia, honey!

"I'm the one who found you, fool"

I walked out of the library and found Alicia for a while. The costume is just not the same as it was yesterday when we broke up. The outfit, which was mediocre, was changing from a garment like some uniform to a costume in a king-like red cape, with a brilliant crown on its head.

Blonde hair with a golden yarn-like habit was somewhat well-groomed, light but make-up on, and she had some grown-up charm from her young girl, yet her style, majestic standing, and penetrating expression. If you're bad, you look more adult than a coarse adult.

Alicia approached me in front of her, sounding a cutlet and a creepy footstep, reaching for her tiny little hand as best she could, and grabbing my chest, she pulled up to her face.

And I've been binta as much as I want with that little flat hand.

"... are you okay?

"What kind of body are you..."

Well, as you know, my defenses are awesome, and even if I'm not usually aware of them, my defenses are always about half the absolute value. Even if Alicia is somewhat good at her athletic abilities, she won't be able to attack me enough to lose my defense.

I mean, I'm intact. Alicia's hands must have been a little paralyzed.

"So, suddenly you say hello to your tenacity."

"Play, where did you break into the castle on your own?

"Huh? Intruder? I can't forgive you, I can help you! Find the intruder!

"Ha... you're the intruder, fool"

Oh, I knew it? Well, you put up a gate soldier and went into the castle, and you're officially classified as an intruder.

Nevertheless, even with my word of mouth, I called you to the 1st Princess, and I think you can welcome me a little. Well, if that's what Alicia says, I can't help it, 'cause she's an intruder, and I'm gonna get you big time.

Going out with a 7-year-old girl is also an elderly job, isn't it?

"So, what? Deception?"

"I'll execute you."

That's not what I was saying. They can't override the difference in power.

And while we interact like that, somewhere Alicia seems to enjoy it. After all, if you live in a hard routine, do you enjoy conversations without other love? Then just talk to Iris so she can communicate with people. It's a little too pathetic to watch, aren't you?

Well, even so, that's not my business. I found Alicia conveniently. Let's get this over with. About that mansion.

"Alicia, I just wanted to ask you something."

"... Hmm, you suddenly got serious. But it would be nice if we just stood up and talked in my private room."

"Oh, really? I never walked into a girl's room!

"I suddenly stopped wanting to go in... this way at all"

In the meantime, about that mansion...... I wish I could pull some info.

◇

"Well, what do you want to hear?

Alicia's room we arrived in was pretty killer scenery. It's like there's nothing childish about it and there's only the bare minimum that you need to get up and get dressed. For once there was a guard soldier in front of the room, and he alerted me once, but Alicia put me through as soon as she said she was good.

Even so, this kid...... he's not really childish. He's too grown up for a 7 year old, so early in maturity, he doesn't seem to have a hard time, but as a parent, he doesn't seem very funny. I think it's the days we spend with our own young children that our parents want to cherish... because being an adult means being independent of our parents. Genius is a good thing, but it doesn't seem like it's all good.

Well, isn't that what I say?

"Yeah, it's a mansion outside the south of this country, isn't it?

"Do you know anything about it?

Get down to business quickly. Then, the moment I spoke about the mansion, Alicia's eyebrows moved pickly. Apparently, he knows something.

"... stay away from that mansion. That's not a good thing to do with people."

Alicia said that with a slight tone of voice down.

"Stay away from that mansion," which means that Alicia is - rather than - the royal family of the Luxhide kingdom has been involved in anything about that mansion.

What's that? Who is that voice? Why wouldn't they demolish a mansion like that? What about that massive grave? Oh, my God, that's what I came here to know.

"Can you tell me why?

That's why I heard. I have a reason to be involved in that mansion. [M]

If you can't tell me, I'm in a little trouble.

Then, after a little thought, Alicia answered with hesitation. My gaze is a little off to the side, and rather than worrying about whether it's a good thing to say, it looks spicy, or with a look I don't want to say.

"... that the mansion was built in the early days of the nation's founding... we know from the backward reckoning of aging"

"That's right..."

"According to the history books, this land is the first queen... the land of Alice Luxhide's birth. And where the mansion was, there were only massive graves. The mansion was built later as the residence of Queen Alice. Anything, she wanted Queen Alice herself to build a mansion in that place... but nobody knows whose grave that massive amount of graves is. Queen Alice knew."

……

Listening to Alicia, that mansion was apparently the first queen's mansion. It's a story about a mansion built on top of what was originally a graveyard, as if even ghosts were about to leave.

Maybe the Lord of that voice is the ghost of that Alice Luxhide. If that's the case, I can't think of a way to counter it. It's a ghost, so they say physical attacks don't work.

With that in mind, I listen to Alicia. [M]

"Queen Alice died in that mansion. Then that mansion, which was deserted, is left until now without being demolished as the queen's mansion. But... as soon as the mansion was deserted, there began to be strange rumors about it."

"Rumors?"

"'That mansion is hung with the curse of Queen Alice. Anyone who approaches you dies,' well, that's a rumor. That's not an impossible story, is it? The power of the" curse "is real in itself, and there are powerful substitutes for the" curse "that cannot be broken where the operator died. Extremely, those who admired the first queen who actually went to clean that mansion didn't really come home... and because of that, no one approached that mansion anymore"

Listen to this story, I think.

I don't know what time the first queen died. But I'm sure the Lord of that voice could have existed since the rumors of that curse began to rise. If it were, it would still be a demon tribe... or a long-lived species... either way, it wouldn't be human.

Or someone who knows the rumor is using the rumor to do something odd like this, but... it's likely he's not human after all. Even Leila, who has a low status for S-Rank, is sure of her strength. Those with the power to grab it lightly...... it would be easier to think of humans as unlikely.

And then, as a possibility, is it really Queen Alice's curse?

"I don't believe in rumors, but unless we interfere, it can be harmless, and now we're free of interference."

"Hmm...... So, what does Alicia think? About that mansion. You really think this is the curse of the first queen?

"There's no way. I don't believe in the curse of the First Queen, and it's only rumors of death."

"I guess, he said he measured how old he was... and that he measured it means he approached the mansion, right?

"Yes, no one, dead or otherwise."

Rumors are rumors, that's what Alicia said. Perhaps the measurement itself was done from outside the mansion, but he hasn't heard that voice itself at this appearance.

Besides, does the fact that no one is dead mean that voice isn't coming out unless you go into the mansion? But it's called hauling Mr. Doran, grabbing Leila and the others, seems to be able to act somewhat outside the mansion... and has the power to do so without any foretaste and no signs, so long as there is no evidence left entirely.

Almost complete stealth ability. Or do you have the power of a metastatic system like the Demon King?

"But there's still something 'there' in that mansion... that's for sure"

"Hmm? What does that mean?

Then Alicia accidentally said that.

"There must have been something in that place that just made rumors. Coincidentally, inevitably, deliberately or naturally, something must have happened. We who are in the king's position cannot miss it more than it does leave behind the fact that it did kill people."

"Hmm."

"We looked into it at one time. But when it comes to natural phenomenal objects, only that deep fog... could not confirm the existence of the undead, and all possibilities were crushed."

But Alicia continued in such a delimited and heavy tone.

"Six months ago, a researcher who had been brought here to investigate... went missing and was found abandoned."

Is that what the Lord of that voice did? Though I think so, I know that what's happening to me now happened six months ago. The researchers, who suddenly went missing, and Layla, who suddenly disappeared, are in a similar situation.

Also, being an abolitionist and being found means that you cornered the Lord of that voice until he was an abolitionist... or are you a user of the psycho-interfering magic used by the Demon King, or something around there?

In that case - there's a great chance that Leila and the others will, too.

"... this may not be relaxing"

"Mm?... Speaking of which, why are you looking into that mansion? Besides, I've been thinking since I saw you earlier... what happened to your people? It would have been perfect for you, such as a gray-haired woman."

"Yeah, well, a little bit. Someone in that mansion grabbed me."

"Huh!?

But, well, I got a lot of information. The intelligent Alicia has information, you won't get any more information from Olivia.

Then, first of all, the first princess - is it number one to look into it from the days of Alice Luxhide? Let's find out where that mansion was and when there were rumors, from around there. Unless you know what the lord of that mansion's voice is... you can't hit me with your hands.

"Okay. Thank you, Alicia. I'm sorry to hear about the intruders, but please try to mislead me. In the meantime, can I browse the books in the library?

That's what I say, get up and try to leave the room. And get Alicia permission to view the books in the library.

Then,

"Wait, that's just fine - I'll work with you too"

Alicia stood up just like me when she said that.
