132 Prospectus as expected and unexpected
If the only exit is hardened by the enemy and it is difficult to break through the front, the first thing to think about is whether there is another exit.
This includes not only the existence of hidden paths such as hidden passages, but also the question of whether it is possible to create new exits.
In that regard, the fact that the forbidden lot existed underground was appreciated.
After all, if you can pierce the ceiling, you can escape from there to the ground in the shortest possible way.
The entrance to the stairs that descend from the first floor to the basement, and how many steps from there. And how high is the ceiling in the basement?
After considering the thickness of the material that separates the first floor and the basement, I decided that "with a sword, I can pierce the ceiling".
"(I used to care about the structure of the Great Library to get information. Is it the ability to manage a crisis?)"
If so, then the question arises as to whether the barrier affixed to the prohibited compartment will stand in the way or whether it can be broken even if it does.
In terms of this, I thought that the barrier would get in the way of breaking through the ceiling. Even if the entrance was sealed, there was no point in sealing it if it was broken through from above or below.
The barrier is meant to protect and seal off the forbidden area. Therefore, I suspected that it would work on the entire room, and that it would not be possible to release only a part of it in detail.
And if you try to break the barrier to break through the ceiling, it will be detected by the blink of light at the time of disarming, and it is unlikely that I alone will be able to escape safely, including Cordelia, who is still injured.
So the key was to see if there was a way to interfere with the barrier that would also exist on the ceiling... no, Uncle Rock.
If my uncle slashed with his one-handed sword without difficulty, my [Sword Saint Flash], who was reaching for the Sword Saint's foot, would slash the barrier.
From the beginning, I was thinking of breaking through the ceiling with "Kenshin Ichiba", so I had no problems securing the exit.
And after going up to the first floor, how do we get the enemy's gaze out of the library?
"Hee hee hee hee hee hee hee! This is how you treat monsters! I'm the real monster. Yay! Hyahoo!!"
"Ah, the monsters sealed in the forbidden compartment..."
"Thor! You idiot!! Really idiot!! Idiot!!"
"I understand that you need a diversion, but don't take it this way!"
Ahaha. I can't hear a single complaint from the monsters screaming.
If you go up from the forbidden lot to the first floor, the location will be in the middle of the floor.
The best way to escape from there was to cut through the side wall with the same protocol and go to the plaza where the horses were connected.
However, if the enemy is hardening the perimeter of the building, it will be detected as soon as they leave the building, and it is highly likely that they will encircle it again without escape.
In that case, I needed the pleasure of gathering the enemy's gaze, but I had to slash the wall, and Cordelia and Ethel lacked strength, and Iris was worried about leaving her alone.
So I noticed the monsters that were sealed inside the forbidden compartment.
There is a trap where the monsters sealed in the Forbidden Book are released if the swap puzzles for revealing the Hidden Door are in the wrong order.
Moreover, this trap is a gimmick with a futile obsession that "there are types of monsters that are opened by the wrong pattern", and the monsters that emerge are all troublesome people who can understand being sealed.
So if we let them all go, we'll have a flashy diversion. I thought so.
If you make a mistake in the puzzle, it will only be released, and the banning book itself, which contains the monsters, will be stored on the bookshelf. I realized that.
Based on the subsequent events, I realized that it was more convenient for me to do so. I put a small amount of time for preparation in the collection of the banner with enthusiasm, and took hold of it and pulled out the ceiling with the "Kensho Ichibo".
And before I knew it, I pulled the monsters out of the ban book one after another, causing disturbances, and pulled the Iriss up from the hole that I had made leisurely.
"Alright! Then which one do you want to unlock next ~? You?" Or is it you? "
[Release yourself, mortal. Then I'll give you what you want.]
[Oreda! Oreo!]
[Let us out, let us out of here]
I thought about using the monsters, and opened and closed the book to free them from the ban. As a result, I repeatedly acquired the [Monster User] skill.
Thanks to that skill, I was able to listen to the voices of the monsters that were sealed, and I was able to gain experience points for each monster that I released from the book.
Of course, because of their low skill level, they could not be placed under control if they weren't weak enough, so they were completely free.
"I'll let you go, so don't attack us." "But it depends on the mood of the monster that came out."
Ugh, next time, Mephistopheles!
[Hahaha! Well done, you freed me! You stupid man, in return for your work, you will die without pain. "
"It's time to die, [Sword Saint Flash]!"
[- Ooh!?]
Therefore, for those who are unlikely to listen to my request, I will immediately dispose of them, and the book will also be incinerated with the [Fire Sword].
Then trampled the ashes in front of the eyes of the other book, and then he showed the appropriate person and sentenced him to an additional burning punishment, and smashed him into which direction he had the leadership.
In addition to the experience points gained by defeating monsters, it was also judged as a "training means to make monsters obey". Perhaps the experience points of "Monster user" can be obtained additionally.
And the monsters that perceived the monsters in various ways began to listen to me to some extent.
Instead of two birds in one stone, the three birds unexpectedly smiled. Oh no! The Catharsis is relieving the stress you've been unable to gain experience! I can't wait!!
"Satan... he's the worst demon ever..."
"Nh, you're running out of books." Iris, why don't you go back to the basement and get some? "
"No! Please don't try to take such dangerous things out with such a light curtain!!"
The monster change was rejected by Iris, so I'm sorry to say no.
Well, [Planaria Slime], which continues to grow after being attacked by [Tormentor Clown], is about to overflow to my feet, so it's about time for the tide.
We've repaired the barrier hole that Sakurai opened. Let's go.
"Roger that. I'll lead. Follow me."
While pretending to leave the rest of the banned books in place, you should keep only one book hidden on your back.
With a strange look on my face, I led Iris and the other monsters in a futile effort to deal with them, so that they didn't get into the sight of the puppets.
Cordelia, the injured person, borrows Iris and Ethel's shoulders and moves.
The huge cane that Mr. Cordelia had in her hand was simply intrusive in moving around, and she left it in the forbidden compartment with just a few thoughts.
"Now then. Shhhhhhhhhhhh!"
When I reached the side of the Great Library, I took a slightly longer breath and concentrated, and then released [Sword Saint Flash] three times in a row.
Continuous is easy, but it's not something you can use in real battles if you have to build a pile between battles, but it's something you can use to triangulate the wall and create a tear path.
"Freon! Come on!"
"...! Hingh!"
When the sun went down and only the moonlight was left to rely on, I would call Freon first if I went out.
Connected to the square just beyond the line of sight, Freon removed the equipment himself as he was told, and winged the steel feathers on his back while reflecting them into the moonlight.
"Bull, bull, bull"
Alright, alright, even with the feathers this time, you're calm.
While stroking the head of Freon that was approaching, I checked the situation.
He was slightly anxious because he had a previous record of being suddenly excited when wearing the "Three Heavens Series" and flying without listening to the instructions, but in this case, he could leave Mr. Cordelia on his back.
"Alright, Ethel, ride with Cordelia to the cathedral." I can't imagine that all the knights over there have been captured by the boulders, so I need you to help me heal Mr. Cordelia's wounds. "
"Okay, but I've barely ridden a horse." only to the extent that they walk..... "
"It's okay, Mr. Ethel." Freon is a very smart horse, so if you ask him, he will listen to you. ”
"Huhin"
Freon raised his chin and squealed as if his chest was stretched open, saying that he understood the words.
This good head, it's strange for a horse after all... Wouldn't you be a reincarnated horse from a previous life?
No, well, if it's convenient for me, I'll do anything. I don't have time to ask questions anyway, so let's get Freon on board.
"If you come this far, you'll have to believe me..."
"Just get in first, Ethel." Cordelia-san will lift it from the bottom, so help her from the top of the horse. "
Okay, okay, okay.
Thank you, Sakurai-sama.
Leave the surroundings to Iris and put Ethel on Freon's back first.
And this time, in order to carry the injured Cordelia-san, I turned my arm around to lift her up around her waist-a slight wind cut in her ear.
"Don't lick me!"
"Cumming!?"
I pulled my body back to protect Cordelia-san's arm and waved my sword with one open hand.
Although it was almost intuitive, the "Knight's Sword of Steel" depicting the trajectory of silver flashed sparks through the chains that flew from the sky.
And at about the same time, there was some kind of blow from behind.
Looking around, Iris, with her long stick swinging through, saw a person in a blue robe who would have been beaten by her rolling across the earth.
"It hurts..." It must be pretty hard to see me at night, so I tried to ambush you, but I didn't expect to find out. "
"Even if I can't see you, your [enthusiasm] will tell me where you are." Who are you? "
"I see, that eye, it's like a demon's eye." I am the father of one of my beloved daughters. Of course, it's not bitter, though. "
Having said that, the man in the robe stood up with a black "darkness" spread out in the hood surrounding his head, and he was a strange being who could barely tell that there was a face there thanks to the cloudy eyes floating in the center and slightly at the top.
…………
"Oops, it's finally here."
And there was a girl standing in front of me.
She glanced at me and Cordelia with her characteristically large cat eyes, and slowly stood up to the trident that was clutching in her hand, peeking at the chains in the ejection position from the magic circle that unfolded around her.
Asana Ayako and Joseph Asanaga.
The two executives of the original enemy organization "Obsidian Sword" are standing between us.
From the side, this situation of desperation with injured people, but from my point of view, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a good opportunity.
So I stuck my sword in the throat of the Saintess Cordelia, who was holding her in my arms without hesitation, and raised her voice.
"Don't let them move!" If you move, I'll kill this maiden!! There's no wand here! Is that all right!? "
Threaten the person who came to assassinate the Holy Maiden with a threat to kill the Holy Maiden.
Iris, Ethel, and Cordelia opened their eyes wide at the unexplained behavior they hadn't told anyone in advance.
Normally, I wouldn't have been threatened like this.
They're telling us to kill the target themselves, so we just have to go ahead and kill them.
"......!"
"Ah, Caizi. I can't cum when I get a look like that." It gives the opponent confidence... it's also a cute thing. "
But the enemy won't move for any reason. I'm threatening you to stop moving.
"Reason for aiming at the Holy Lady", which was a half-hearted question, came here and turned into a sure thing.
"(I see, is it the 'Sacred Staff of the Great Sin'?)"
That reaction corroborates my idea, and that's all I need to know for now.
If it is true, I feel like I want to complete the negotiation in this place, but I feel something dripping from Cordelia's back.
Perhaps this is the blood flowing from the open wound. I press it against my body and hold it as long as I can, but I don't have time for long negotiations.
Sandwiched between the front and the back, this situation shows a slight rigidity by taking hostages. But if we don't continue to act, we'll just have to take the lead again, as we did when we were attacked.
"Iris, luggage carrier."
Yes.
I was able to communicate in a whisper in a flash. I don't have time to put Cordelia-san on the Freon for a long time, so I had the luggage carrier made by magic and everyone left here.
All we have to do is buy some time. Therefore, I open my mouth so that I can hear the adversary who is asking for me from the front and back.
"Your purpose is the 'Holy Staff of the Great Sin', right?" Fine, if you want it, I'll give it to you! That's why it's a deal, how about morning and night parents and children! "
……
"Hey, you know us?"
Intriguing or suspicious.
Drag from the battle to the stage of the conversation.
"Oh, I think I know." Whatever you need to prove, you can tell me! Asaga Ayako! "The Holy Scepter of the Great Sin!" Why are you craving it!! "
Caizi was loudly wolfing at my dialogues, which I dared to utter out loud.
I didn't think my grief was known to someone who didn't even know my face.
If Joseph's true purpose is spoken of in this situation, she will lose her ability to escape Joseph's curse. I'm sure you want to avoid it at all costs.
That's why I really... took my hand off the trident that Caizi had set up, and reached out to just say wait.
When I saw the figure, I heard a voice from Joseph saying, "Oh," but at the same time, I received a signal from Iris. I threw Cordelia to Iris and at the same time threw the forbidden book I had hidden on my back towards Caizi.
"Gruaaaaaaaaaa!!"
"---!!"
From the forbidden book, a huge monster dressed in a magic coat called "Gozu Sorcerer" appeared, and the wand in his hand was slammed against Caizi.
Although Caizi jumped backwards, he was forced to retreat further than expected by the aftermath emitted from the impact that submerged the earth.
”Ahh, you're so cute to fail, Caizi!”
A monster is blocking between me and Ayako, and Joseph is rushing to help his daughter.
In other words, there was enough room to escape.
Iris's magic creates a simple carrier formed of ice, which connects to Freon's body.
Suddenly, Freon said, "Hin!? The horse regained its composure by calling its name by surprise.
If you do, you just run away afterwards.
With Iris, Cordelia sits on the loading platform somewhat violently, and instructs Ethel to abandon the violent Gozu and set off to grab the Freon's reins.
Ethel, go!
"Please, Mr. Horse!"
Hiheen!
Along with the nodding, the "Tenma Hane" mounted on the back of Furon spreads.
In accordance with Freon's will, the cloud path that leads to the sky is formed by the power of the [Amakake Bridge], and the [Feather of Weiwei Tanden], which accelerates all the movements of the wearer, cuts off the starting dash that does not stagnate.
"......!!"
Oh, this, this, this, this, this is done, Caizi.
It was already too late when Asahi's parents and children disabled the Gozu Sorcerer. Riding on the Freon and the luggage carrier that were pulled by the reins, we ran down the cloud path and climbed to the sky, which was no longer reachable by Caizi.
No one can refuse our escape anymore. But there's still work to be done.
I peeked down from the inside of the luggage carrier.
There are Planaria Slimes overflowing from the hole opened in the library, a Gozu mage who is chained to a trident spear and pushed into the sky, and Ayako Asaga, who is strongly bewitched, and Joseph, who is standing next to it.
I called them out loudly as I thanked the parents and children of Asahi for being still there.
“Four days from now, before the hero's memorial! If you want the" Holy Staff of the Great Sin ", come there! If you don't want to, you have to give up already!"
Just say it and pull back to the loading platform.
I heard the monsters roaring from somewhere as I ran through the moonlit night. Perhaps Joseph's retreat left the puppets unchecked and overflowed outside the library.
For once, I chose those monsters that did not use fire attribute attacks, so there would be no fire, but I still felt guilty that the Great Library, which is a vault of knowledge, would be damaged.
But the Saintess was in danger, and it felt like an emergency evacuation.
Besides, it's like the Elf's town was burned down... so it's better if it's not burned down.
With such an excuse, I sat down in the luggage carrier while dispelling my guilt.
Why do I have to struggle so much? Ethel, who was holding the reins when she sighed, said, "I don't want to make bad promises."
"I know how to do that... but thank you, Thor." Thank you for saving me. "
"You owe me this." If the heavens hadn't asked for you, I'd have cut it off a long time ago. "
Heaven asked you to do it?
"'If anything happens, give me a hand', that's what I promised."
And when he had spoken, Ethel turned to him, saying, Is that so? For the time being, it seems that the demand for "borrowing" has been conveyed, but above all, it has not been contested.
All you have to do is use that loan to help me build a better future.
"Iris, keep an eye on Cordelia." Ethel, I'll take care of the doctor and where I'm going. You know more about Elf territory than I do. "
Okay, Sakurai-san.
Okay, okay, okay.
When I heard that response, I relaxed and looked up.
The screams of monsters heard somewhere in the blurry moon, and the alarm bells of people who would have noticed the situation echoed through the Elf Realm.
”Hah ~...... the experience is a waste......”
I lay down as I spit out a voice of sorrow for the monsters that were raging in the Great Library with exhaustion.
In the original game, there are more "troublesome" types of monsters that were sealed than "strong".
If we take a good look at it, we'll be able to defeat it in less time... Now, how powerful are the knights in this world?
"(The Knights of the Elf Territory. I can't take back the Great Library, but it's ideally weak enough to hold it back around it. Now, what's going to happen?)"
While thinking about such things, I pray that you will follow the prospectus.
At this time, I should have noticed.
It should be noted that many of the most powerful people in Japan were sacrificed by the [Total Power War against Dragons] three years ago, and that elites who naturally worked in the Elf Territory were also included.
And in just three years, the holes that lost the elites will not be filled.
Let's conclude.
The cathedral was occupied by monsters.
Hearing the alarm, the knights failed to stop the monsters overflowing from the library and retreated to the cathedral next to them.
The monsters that escaped from the Great Library chased the retreating knights and attacked the cathedral.
The Knights of the Cathedral were unable to defeat the impending monsters, and acted to evacuate the people inside first, abandoning the Cathedral as a result.
Originally, by using the defensive barrier to isolate the monsters in the cathedral and the grounds of the library next to it, they succeeded in containment.
We heard the facts from the people who ran away from the cathedral beside Cordelia, who was admitted to a reliable hospital.
I thought that it would be enough for me to reach that scale by the day of the negotiations between Asahi and my parents and children, and I said, "I didn't think that what I did to help the saintly lady from that place would be so important," while "cheating" on Iris and the others, I was happy to see the situation as it was on the prospectus and on an unexpected scale.
"But it can't be helped! It's my fault! I took responsibility for the man-made dungeon [Elf's Cathedral]!!"
─ ─ and said with a full smile.
Aftermath
I will come back after taking the time to write it down.
We'll work hard to finish Chapter 5 around the next refresh!
