Tensei Shoujo no Rirekisho

Around the Wave Greeting Edition: Gesley's Runaway

That, why me, sleeping here.

When I wake up, I see a ceiling I have no idea about.

I do go to a lot of places now to go to Gwennasis territory and now in Rainforest territory......

... right! Alan!

I was just saying something that Gesley doesn't know what it means to erase Alan!

I felt like I wanted to jump up, but if I wanted to wake up, my body wouldn't move for some reason.

His eyes were opened, but he wasn't going to be able to move his arms or legs.

Speaking of which, I was sniffed a high concentration of sleeping pills before I was put to sleep. I still have poison in my body.

I found myself unexpectedly put to bed in a beautiful room when I managed to move only my eyes.

Only lamps placed on the side table illuminate the room, with no windows and dim.

And... and when I moved my gaze elsewhere, I unwittingly solidified.

'Cause there's something like a cage.

A cage, or something like a door in this room, is like plaid iron bars... that, could it be me, locked in this room?

The cage-like door has chains wrapped around it and a large lock.

Besides, as far as the lattice clearance shows, the watch stands.

I see. I think I'm trapped in this room.

Gesley sniffed me before I lost consciousness. I still don't feel like I can move my arms or legs with sleeping pills, but if my mouth...

"Ahhh..."

Somehow my voice barely spoke.

That said, I don't think I can shout, but if I can speak up, it's this way.

I cast a spell so low that I didn't know if I had a voice or not.

"Omoiwabi satemo inochiha almono ukinita enuha namidana rikeri"

Safe antidote magic.

When I think my body starts glowing, I feel uncomfortable around my throat......

"Geho, geho, ho..."

I choked unintentionally.

When I finished spitting a small amount of blood out of my mouth, my body felt refreshed and eased.

It got easier, I thought, waking up my body and muddling my mouth with my arms.

I can't help but vomit blood because this is always the case when I use detoxification magic. I think he's giving out something bad with the blood.

"Master Liu, are you awake?

I heard a worrying voice coming from across the door of the cage.

If you look at the voice, you're the one who was doing the lookout thing in front of the door. Gesley's Kingsguard, for sure.

"What does this mean?

When I said that, the knight bowed his head as he shrunk himself in a frightened manner.

"I'm sorry. But this is also what His Highness thought for Master Liu! Her Royal Highness said there was an emergency and she went out somewhere... Then I told her to stay in this safe room because I was worried about her."

Huh? What are you talking about?

You trap me in such a cagey place, and I often say it for me or something!

This knight is being duped by the lies Gesley told.

Gesley locked me in here just to keep me from coming after him.

It's not for safety.

"Where is His Highness, Henry?

"Uh... Your Highness, I don't know because I wasn't told where I was going"

... Huh? Are you serious about that?

My husband said he was going somewhere to protect me, but he didn't grasp...?

You noticed I had eyes to blame. The knight opened his mouth like he was in a panic.

"Your Highness is a wizard. If you're meant to be, you don't need protection!

I looked out for a knight who said that straight out until it was clear.

These people are really... just ornaments.

"... how many minutes has it been since His Highness went out?

Saying so with less bitterness, the knight told me it was about two minutes.

As we can see from Gesley's story, it was the Count Rainforest residence that headed there.

If this is near the Inn, it takes about four minutes to reach the Count's residence by horse. Guessley shouldn't have gotten there yet. If I go after him with all my horses, I might catch up with him critically.

Gesley said the word "erase" clearly then.

It could be a joke because it's about Gesley, but it's also a real possibility because it's about Gesley.

We have to stop it. We can still make it.

"Can you get me out of here? And get a horse and a coat ready..."

Say, I get out of bed.

The outfit is the same as it was before Gesley put me to sleep. I found the leather shoes I was wearing at the time under the bed.

"Oh, you can't do that! Your Royal Highness has told you to stay here. Master Liu must be protected here!

Though the knight has said so desperately, I ignore and wear leather shoes.

If you won't let me out, I'll have to get out myself.

When he put on his shoes and secured them with a tight string, he jerked off the sole trick and took out the matchbox he had stored on the thick bottom.

And when I come in front of the door with the match box in my hand, I stick my hand in through the gap in the lattice and point the lock facing the other side just a little bit this way for my hand.

"No, you can't! I can't open it. I don't have the keys either, so I can't open them!

"Keys and I don't expect you to, so no problem"

That's all I say, I try to rub the gunpowder part of the match into the keyhole of the lock and put the powder in.

The knight was loud with a crying voice from earlier, but when I ignored it and continued working on it, they accumulated matching powder all over the keyhole, so now I'm going back to bed.

I breached the sheets of the bed in a grand way and dipped them in the oil of the lamp when I made the cloth cut.

And he messed with the shoe trick again and took out the little hidden knife he had hidden on the other sole.

I don't have the basics of a weapon, but I'm glad I kept it hidden because it's as good as this.

I knew I had these things ready and no worries!

It was worn around the tip of the concealed knife with a cloth dipped in the oil earlier.

All right, we're all set.

"The escort, it's a little dangerous there. You should step back."

"Yes!? What, what are you going to do!?

If you don't leave, you'll get really hurt.

When I said that and stared, the frightened escort said hiccup and backed me down.

I quickly flew the knife toward the lock when I lit the lamp on the tip of the knife all right.

And then, hurry up and twirl your body in a bed futon to protect your head.

Then a huge explosion sounded, whether it was Don or Van.

And the pitiful voice of an escort named Ghaa...

I thought that guy was just a knight that Gesley told me to protect me, too. I thought it was a disaster, then I put my face out of the futon.

The smell of gunpowder is all over the area.

And the lock broke as expected.

The drugs on the core of the matches that permeate this country are almost like gunpowder. Pack it up and burn it and it can be quite a bomb.

I take the rest of the fragments of the lock, which barely holds the prototype, off the chain, wrapped around it to secure the door.

The last chain was broken and Jalan fell to the floor. When I opened the door of the cage and went outside, the knight of the guard, who had been there earlier, was falling on the floor at the end of the hallway.

I feel like I saw it. The trauma doesn't look like it, so I just stunned and passed out.

"Nevertheless, where am I? I wonder if there's anyone else who made such a loud noise and no one else will come"

I shrugged so much but in the end I didn't know the answer so I decided to walk out the hallway relying on the lamp lights for now.

Apparently, the place I was locked up in was underground. Besides, it wasn't even that wide, so I immediately found a staircase leading to the ground and was able to get out on top.

Out on the ground there was a smell of damp ground and a rain noise.

I was worried it was going to rain in the morning, but I'm sure it's raining now.

It's the kind of city I've seen looking around, maybe not that far from the inn we were staying in.

Shall we go back to the inn once?

But I'm scared because I don't know what Gesley will do.

I ended up buying a jacket and a horse in the city and decided to go straight to Rainforest Mansion.

The rain deprives me of my strength more than usual, and my vision is worse.

But that should be the same for Gesley.

Maybe he's raining me along the way.

Gesley wasn't into horseback riding, but it didn't extend to me, should it?

If I keep up with everything I can, I can catch up.

I sneeze the rain with my jacket, hold on tight so the reins don't slip and let go, and run your horse on the super express and push on.

After a while it thankfully stopped raining along the way. Increase the horse's running speed even more.

Forsaking his return, he proceeded with all his strength, and what I did to the mansion was about two minutes after I left.

In front of the Rainforest Mansion, which I will always feel nostalgic for, I try to jump and get off my horse and run into the front door.

Ringing the bell of the door chillingly, there was a maid director, Stella, who had previously taken care of her.

"Li, Master Liu......!? What the hell is wrong with you dressed like that?

He looked at me when I came in a wet rag, and he called me that.

I was glad you realized it was me for being so worn out, but not now.

"Is Alan...!? Is Alan safe!? Your Highness hasn't come yet, has he?!?

"Dear Alan...?

"Alan is okay, isn't he!?

so desperately good to my bewildered maid chief,

"Lew? What's going on!?

And I heard an ear familiar voice, and I turned my gaze to the rear of the maid length.

Alan came down the dance floor stairs in front of the front door, shaking his jade eyes in bewilderment.

Alan......! It's Alan...!

I was heartily relieved to see Alan, who didn't seem injured or doing anything, and I ran over to Alan unexpectedly.

"Alan, great......!

I say that and hug Alan with the kind of momentum that hits him.

Good! It's Alan! Alan, he's alive!

When I hugged Alan and made sure he was safe, I finally calmed down.

If you notice, Alan feels a little stiff. He stretches his spine and makes you wander off wondering what to do with his arm.

Seeing Alan confused, I hurried away in haste.

Speaking of which, I'm still wearing a wet, dirty coat.

"Sorry, dressed like this......!

Alan wears a white shirt with a charcoal vest and trousers, which is a nice outfit for a noble item. I feel like I got dirt on my clothes because of jumping on Alan like that. No, it's definitely dirty!

I was rushing to take my coat off, and Alan put his hand on my shoulder.

"No, it's not. Not that I cared about my clothes... uh, more than that, why is Liu here? Is something wrong?

That's what Alan told me and reminded me of my original purpose. Alan was safe, but maybe there's going to be a guy like Gesley.

I need you to be vigilant.

"I want His Highness Henry to be careful. You don't want me to deal with you even if you come here..."

"Huh? Your Highness Henry? Then I've been in the Mansion for a while now."

"... Huh?

I was desperately trying to tell Gesley to be careful, and I opened my eyes to Alan's words that I wouldn't even look at.

"Your Highness, did you want it?

"Ah, oh. So just now, Brother Cain and I left..."

"Dear Cain..."

Sooo I felt like I could hear blood loss coming from behind my ear.

I was wrong.

It wasn't Alan that Gesley was talking about.

Gesley's aim is......

But, no way. Because Master Cain is Gesley's favorite.

But...

"Alan! Where did the Cains go!?

"Uh, uh, maybe it's a nearby lake. He said something about going that far."

I listened to Alan and turned back my heels.

It's not that far to the lake. As soon as you get another stepping horse to work hard. Right away.

"Hey, Liu!

I hear Alan calling it off in the back.

"Excuse me, Alan, I, I have to go!

While I answered that, I attracted the horse's reins and jumped on them.

"Wait, I'm going, too.... Smith, give me the horse!

That's what Alan said, speaking to a servant who was at the stables.

Just when Mr. Smith, who was pulling a horse nearby, said, "Ha, yes!" Alan jumped on the horse when he brought me the horse.

"I don't know what the hell is going on, but that means Liu is so desperate, doesn't it!?

Yes. I'm glad to hear Alan say what he said as a matter of course. I'm comfortable with you coming with me.

"Thank you, Alan"

I gave it back and kicked the horse.

To the lake.

Master Cain is Gesley's favorite.

So I don't think it's going to be what I imagine.

Though I think so, I have a bad feeling about it for some reason.
