Skeleton Knight, in Another World

In the evening, myself and Arian had already placed themselves in one of the inns they had taken during the day together, as the people of the city rushed early as if they could into a sky stained with cedar.

I have nothing to do for now, so I sit with my knees in the corner of the room.

Arian, speaking of, plays gobbly with Ponta on the bed.

There, as the travelling chiyome quietly entered the room and closed the key from the inside, he took a big hat and stood up his black cat ear, looking around.

After exploring the surroundings, Chiyome asked about the results of the gathering of information, looking in turn at herself and Arian, who were in the room.

"How was it with you?

To that inquiry, myself and Arian face each other silently.

"This one didn't get any particularly useful information. After that, Arian got tangled up in a drunk."

Answering Chiyome's question with her shoulders flaunted, I could see her black cat ears moving pimply. Her expression hardly changes, but her ears and so on seem to make her emotions come true.

It conveys a somewhat softening and delightful appearance. It would be easier to understand if I could see the tail, but is it easy to read the emotions of cats because I had cats in my parents' house?

Being sincerely pleased with the result that she and Arian's information-gathering was not fragrant would mean that the information she herself had brought would be useful. Since Chiyome is in a position to rush the task of this search for the Elves against Arian, the idea is that if he can contribute to her, he will also have a good heart test?

Well, Arian at the time doesn't seem to have particularly bad feelings about Chiyome. I'm just trying not to let him get away with sneaking around the ponta I was stroking at hand......

"This one had some gains"

After Chiyome and Ariane's gaze crossed, Chiyome slowly said so and strained her chest.

"Oh, that's great"

This is an occasion for praise. Hit your hand slightly exaggerated and say a compliment, the cat ear over Chiyome's head moves pimply toward this one.

If it's true, I want to stroke her under her chin after this, but she's a cat, not a cat. You should weigh yourself in, and if you do, I won't do it because Arian is going to see you with cold eyes.

"We didn't know how many, but it was witnessed that the Elves were brought into the Lord's Castle about April ago. But about March ago, there was an elf tribe that was transported out of the castle this time. We couldn't infiltrate the castle, so we didn't know if anyone was still inside."

Had it been brought in here a long time ago, but did it also come out of the possibility of not being here already?

Five people were definitely being transported into the city in terms of the number of sales contracts. It is unclear how many of them were carried out, but it is not necessarily that no one remains captured in the castle yet.

I look toward Arian because I think so.

"If there's any chance it's left, I'm gonna infiltrate and help you out."

Arian looks straight back with those golden eyes and speaks clearly of his determination. Her answer was within the assumption, so she nodded at it and asked what she would do with the next day of infiltration.

"So when are you going to dive into the castle?

"You'd better hurry, wouldn't you? How about we get in this evening?

As Arian grabbed his fist and settled early, Chiyome, who had been listening to it, had moved somewhat hastily to take that opinion to mind.

"Please wait. Investigations have not yet been completed into how many elves remain captured in the castle and where they are captured. If you infiltrate this castle, you will be the wings to look for lice!?

To Chiyome's prophecy, Ariane frowns at the root of her eyebrows and makes a difficult face and asks her.

"But if you do, you're gonna stay here for days to figure out how many people are caught and where they are, right?

"... Yes, I'd like at least five more days"

Gathering information alone is inherently quite a difficult task. Still, I guess we should see that she's pretty good at being able to manage to make a point in five days.

But here comes one concern.

"Whatever Lord Chiyome is in this land of Hilk roots, I wonder if we can lurk through for five days."

Chiyome's cat ears shriveled a little to the concern she raised, making her difficult face.

There is a power (from my side) to build such a fine church that Hilkism, with its ethnicity, can be built. Regardless of the lurking or infiltrating genius (pro) chiyome, it seems difficult for someone like myself and Arian who is already a little floating from their surroundings to scratch the eyes of others and keep lurking.

If you have a safe house or something, you don't have to know, and this is just a normal inn. If anyone who believes in religion were to report Arian, they would not be talking about the rescue of those imprisoned in the castle.

It was a chiyome that had been bothering my head for a while after receiving Arian and his own opinion, but when I exhaled and slowly nodded, I had made suggestions for a day to infiltrate.

"Then let's infiltrate the castle tomorrow night. Tomorrow morning, a unit will be dispatched from the western fort towards Casec to become the third formation. The fortifications adjacent to the castle are passable in part, so I think it would be preferable after tomorrow to have less support to rush when infiltration is discovered"

Ariane nodded and responded to Chiyome's suggestion.

Then, based on that information from Chiyome, we will meet to step in when we infiltrate.

This infiltration was performed by myself and Ariane as before, and Chiyome decided to be in charge of stopping when backup was dispatched from the west fort when the infiltration was discovered, and providing backup in turmoil.

The next day, Chiyome went to the final bottom of the fort, but she and Arian decided to make love to each other in the inn room because of the drunken high-ranking officer in the case. They may have forgotten about this one because they were quite drunk, but I have never taken extra care of them.

In the evening, the weather, which had collapsed since around noon, was covered so that thick and dark clouds could drip in on one side of the sky.

Normally, the moonlight goes out when you infiltrate, and this weather with more darkness is welcome, but for me infiltrating with [Dimensional Walking Method (Dimensional Move)], with more unexpected darkness, fewer places can be transferred, and more places are difficult to reject and infiltrate.

However, this is a special circumstance for us, and for Chiyome, who alone monitors the western fort, it is a convenient condition for him to have more darkness and be able to lurk.

Under that dark sky, which took a quick look at the book of the night, Arian and myself, who had taken out the inn, joined Chiyome once they had completed their investigation for their last meeting.

When I said a meeting, it all ended without delay, just a final confirmation of where to find the rendezvous place after the escape and how to instruct the fort to disrupt.

He broke up with Chiyome on the spot after midnight and now even comes near the castle wall in the southwest of the Lord's Castle.

This time, on the condition of avoiding the northwest part of the church and not even approaching the west fort, he went down a dark alley strewn vertically and horizontally throughout the southwest city, looking up at it from the shade of an alley with a view of the walls.

There is no moat or other around the walls, but a wide street along the outer perimeter, where you can see guards walking around from time to time.

Rain grains had already fallen quietly from the thick clouds covering the sky, and the darkness around them had begun to deepen. If you look for a place that can be transferred, you can only find a place at the top of the painfully visible walls or about where the bonfire for watching is on fire.

In this darkness it seems quite difficult to move into the castle after transferring over the walls. The shadows are probably thick within the walls thanks to these high walls, and there should be considerable restrictions on where they transfer. But if you keep it long on the walls, you're more likely to find it no matter how dark it is around you.

The first metastasis is a battle against time.

"So we're going?

She nodded back silently when she saw and asked Arian, who had placed her hand on her shoulder.

"[Dimensional Stepping (Dimension Move)]"

With the exercise of metastatic magic, you and Arian, as well as two Pontas, who are in charge of the green fur muffler at the neck, travel instantly from the edges of alleys throughout the city to the walls of the castle where the lord lives.

Arian is responsible for checking the perimeter immediately after the metastasis. Dark Elf's girlfriend has a good night's eye, so she is asking for an enemy. It's just that the guards moving over the walls mostly have the lights in their hands, so in view of what's really unforeseen.

Speaking of myself, I am in the middle of the task of staring into the shadowy walls from above the walls and selecting places that are likely to be easy to transfer and find.

There is a nice building that looks like a main building on the back to the west of the wall, and a small and large building is distributed in the shape of a co to surround the central garden placed in front of it.

The central garden has few light sources, and it is probably the guards around to see only the flickering and small lights moving multiple times.

As we head to the rescue of the imprisoned elves, the main building of our destiny to infiltrate will still be the main building in the back of the west. But the perimeter of the main building is hard to see a gap with the light leaking from the hall and several guards standing around.

Moreover, there is a considerable distance from above the walls where we are now, and trees planted, implants, etc. are blocking sight, and the exact number and movement of guards are not known.

This would be a particularly definite means of not heading directly to the main building, but of moving from the walls you are in now to the side of the building on the south side, close by, and searching for a route into the main building after searching there.

As he sorted out his thoughts as he looked around the castle from above the walls, Arian, who had refrained next door, smacked him on the shoulder small enough to send a signal.

When I point my gaze only at her, I show a hand sign like putting two fingers up and swinging to her left twice.

Apparently, two people are approaching from their left hand. I can't stay long.

Nod at her signal and activate the metastatic magic again.

The scenery instantly switched and moved to the back of the mansion, which was a little smaller than the other buildings on the south side. Even if you say it's tiny, it's a pretty big mansion compared to ordinary people's houses, etc.

With two stone floors, mosaic patterned walls made of a combination of stones of different colors attract quite a bit of fun in the light of leaking out of the mansion.

The large rectangular glass window, lined to the ground floor wall of the mansion, is embedded with a plaid stare to see what's inside. The hallway was handed out at regular intervals what appeared to be the light of the magic props, and the red carpet was shown at the foot of the hallway illuminated by its lights.

However, there are no signs of people in the hallway where the condiments and the like are placed in good condition. There are also fewer lookouts around compared to the main building and it is quite quiet to just hear the bugs lurking in the bushes around.

The mansion finally proceeded to give in and peer around as he sank into the central courtyard of the corner and the main entrance to the mansion where he could see it. Two watchmen just stand on the front entrance, there are several lookers around in the courtyard, and several guards can be seen under the lights in the main building behind.

The courtyard has a lot of places to lurk in, and there are many dark spots with no lights to travel with in the transfer, which makes it quite difficult to travel.

First we have to explore this mansion or move along the outer perimeter of the walls from the back of the mansion to the main building to find a place to break in from there.

Speaking to Arian, who had followed her from behind to that effect, she had suggested a search from the mansion where she was now.

"I don't think it's likely to come off to see too many watchdogs?

I'll tell her my personal opinion for once.

"We haven't been able to identify the number or location of the captives, and if you're looking for lice in the castle, you'd better start looking for the lookout spot, right?

Certainly, in exploring the castle, it's also my job to search first for places unlikely to be spotted on the lookout.

Let's start with this mansion.

With that said, he peered into one of the mansion's windows, made sure there were no shadows around him and transferred to the mansion's hallway using the [Dimensional Walking Method (Dimensional Move)].

"There's hardly any sign of anyone on the ground floor... but it feels strange."

Mumble with a slight movement of its pointy ears as Arian, who was behind him, explored the surrounding sounds.

"It's convenient if you don't have people. Let's check out this mansion and get to the west side of the main building."

Turn the door knob on the nearby door and peek inside the room.

There is no light in the room, and the dim interior is only slightly lit from the hallway near the entrance, with poor prospects. It's just that I haven't seen you using this room lately. The conditioning is dusty.

Normally, these mansions are managed by dozens of servants and will not fail to be taken care of openly.

Is the lord's kitchen situation here more painful than it looks and he hasn't even gotten around to managing the mansion?

When I looked at Arian, who was opening the other door and checking the room, I shook my head silently.

There didn't seem to be anything in particular over there.

For now, we go down the hallway, where only the lights light up, peering into the room in turn. Eventually, as he came to the corner of the mansion, the hallway continued at a right angle to the back.

This is the hallway that will be the back of the mansion, but I don't see any other doors that lead to the room, just a big double door at the ram.

Invite Arian to move in [Dimensional Walking Method (Dimension Move)] without making any noise in front of both of its doors. When Arian gently pushed open the door on one side, the doorbell slightly sounded.

It was like a big dance hall there.

The height up to the second floor is blown through, with large chandeliers suspended at equal intervals from its high ceilings. The polished floor stones are lined with elaborately designed columns, and the left hand is shaped like a kind of sunroom with large glass windows positioned between them.

But none of the lights were lit in this hall, and none of the moonlights came in because of the broken weather from the glass windows.

For this reason, there were no advantages to any prospects as if a large black hole had been opened in the back.

As she turned her gaze toward Arian, the dark elf at night, she stepped into the hall to be drawn to something fluttering.

"Lord Arian?

Yes, I tried calling her whispering, but she didn't respond as usual. I was surprised and tried to speak again, and I finally realized it.

Over her head, at that slightly higher position, it was floating.

The body is about fifteen centimeters long and the round body is dark all over its body, which is quite difficult to see in this dark. Its flying dwarf-like creatures, with small feathers and short tails on their backs and multiple projection-like objects on their heads, looked back at this side and a red eye opened and raised an odd voice.

"Gekku!?

No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a decent creature, and your right hand doesn't hesitate to react without thinking that you might have imitated the devil somewhere else.

"Chest!!

As the chops rolled out of his right hand slammed that inexperienced dwarf demon to the floor, the sound of Becha and something crushing sounded in the hall.

"Oh, that?

As the dwarf demon sticks to the floor, he looks around and looks back this way as Arian suddenly remembered, which was now unresponsive.

"Are you all right, Lord Arian?

"Sorry, I'm suddenly unconscious..."

Arian tried to shake her head and twisted her neck to her previous condition.

"What if it's this guy's fault?

I pasted it on the floor. When I showed it and showed it, her eyes opened to surprise.

"Imp!? Why are you in such a house?

Check yourself out for that Arian word and see the stuff stuck on the floor. Sure, there was a monster named Imp in the game that had a similar shape, but it wasn't so small so far.

But if you think about it, you can also talk about how you can't help but see monsters that are fifteen centimeters long in the game.

"Surely Imp handled the magic of the phantom system?

Ask Arian for confirmation by citing the features that had previously appeared in the game, and he looks down at the imp affixed to the floor stone in agreement with it.

"Usually you're only supposed to be in a dark, relatively magical place like a cave..."

Another voice answered it from the darkness behind the hall to that word of Arian leaking like a whine.

"He's my pet, isn't he? Oh, that's outrageous..."

Myself and Arian gaze up at those who spoke as if they had been bounced, putting their hands on the pattern of the weapon raised on their hips.

One man appeared there to get out of the darkness.

The man looks familiar. He's a man who used to come tangled up in Arian with drunken momentum under the castle.

Apparently someone who has something to do with the lord here.

The long, large man laughs and looks at this one, hoisting his bearded mouth as he rocks his unique dreadhair. And his eyes were slightly smiled.

"Oh, Temehe and the others... when are they the ones who took care of you all over the city..."
