Ladies and gentlemen, there's a hidden passage here!

As soon as they disappeared, Ellis found a hidden passageway as she explored their surroundings.

It was nice.

"Hmm... I don't think any traps have been set up." It must have been made purely as an evacuation route. "

"Thanks to the soil smoke just now, there are still some footprints left." I'm pretty sure the two of you used this place. "

Stella and Ellis keep an eye on the scene.

I want to imitate that observation power.

Let's go after them immediately!

Yeah, that's right.

Chiffon nodded, and Stella and Ellis tightened their faces.

What are you waiting for?

Can you capture Mina?

With some anxiety and doubt, we entered a hidden passage.

――――――――――

"Hah... hah... hah!"

Mina and Verg kept driving through the hidden passageways.

The hidden passageway is narrow, and it is best for two people to stand side by side.

Besides, it's like a maze, so it stops everywhere.

Mina did not know the structure of the hidden passageway better than Velg did.

"What the hell...!"

Ahn?

As she ran, Mina sent Verg a blameless gaze.

“Why, I was so scared because I attacked them”

"Hey, wait, that was me..."

"You think you can deceive my eyes?"

……

That was definitely Mr. Verg's attack.

I used the power of Velga to get to Horizon.

His power is to manipulate the shadows.

From shadow to shadow.

It lurks in the shadows.

And... attack from the shadows.

He had the ability to do that.

Mina saw the power.

The attack was not the work of the wild monsters, or the selfie of Rain or Verg.

It was set up by him as if he were breaking up the meeting.

Mina stared at Verg.....

And Verg sighs.

"Oh, I'm sorry. It was me, for sure." Arbitrary. I should have consulted with you beforehand. ”

"Consultation... is that what you were thinking of attacking from the beginning?"

Of course.

Velg nodded without falling apart.

Mina suddenly remembered the mild dizziness in his attitude.

What on earth are you thinking?

For the sake of peace between humans and demons, we must take the hero as our ally.

And yet, I can't believe you're trying to sell me a fight.....

"I'm sorry, I couldn't stand it."

"Patience...?"

"I just told you... my men, who were left alone in the city and beaten by a brave man, were very important people." You had a family relationship. So when I found out that he was hit, I honestly bled on my head. So... let's remind the brave of this nonsense. "

"That's..."

"I'm sorry, I was short-sighted."

"... I see. If that's the case, then I can't help it."

"It would be helpful if you could say so. It's what I asked you to do, but for now, let's prioritize getting away."

Yes.

Apparently convinced by Verg's explanation, Mina changed her mind and ran forward.

Looking at her like that, Verg laughs in his heart.

What a modest woman.

Do you believe what you normally think, with all the holes in it?

I can't believe it.

There's no way to choose someone who moves intellectually as an envoy, and if you hate brave people, you should bomb them directly in front of you first.

It's a lot of other stories.....

Mina believed it easily.

Because of that character, it's not just for that reason.

Mina trusts Verg so much... that she easily trusts his story.

I accepted it without doubt.

It's a good trend.

Verg laughs at the prospect of fulfilling the true mission he has been given.

The real mission given to him is neither Mina's support nor her escort.

burning Mina, and then falling like Lean.....

It was about bumping into a brave man.

If you defeated the brave, that's it.

Even if you fail, you can still get a superior soul.

Either way, it didn't hurt.

Do your best for me.

Verg laughed inside and ran down the hidden passage with Mina.
