The Strongest Wingless Gargoyle

"... hmm?

Consciousness slowly surfacing from the midst of a slight sleep.

When I woke up, I was put to bed in a room I didn't know.

Get yourself out of bed and look around the room slowly.

"... this, this place?

The expensive vase on the shelf by the bed wasn't in the inn I stayed in yesterday.

The colorful paintings hung on the walls are supposedly painted by famous painters.

For once, I intend to have a lot of knowledge of the conditioning products in that hand.

Expensive condiments are close to Menardo's castle.

Well... Still, the median eye-catching rate is about 70%. What?

Why was I asleep in this room?

Daytime memory that awakens and rises over time.

After finishing my research at the guild and breaking up with Metel, a sleigh stole my wallet at the store where I went in for lunch. I was surrounded by men saying I was a penniless meal and drink at accounting time.

To apologize to the store owner, this situation was planned and the Suri man was actually guru with the shopkeepers.

When I resisted the men trying to force me into the back room on the grounds that I couldn't pay, and I was about to go straight into battle.

I... I was put to sleep by sleep magic.

"... eh"

Stand in front of a mirror installed on the wall to check your identity.

What you see in the mirror is how you remain disguised, almost the same as you were this morning.

"... good"

Exhale in a ho. Black-haired cuttlefish are disturbed because they were lying in bed, white robes are wrinkled, but it doesn't seem like someone pranked them while they were asleep.

But it's also been a long time since I thought of something important.

Shit! Being asleep means...

"... ahhh!

When you open the curtains and look outside the room, the sky is already dark.

At least three hours have passed because of what happened at the store before the evening.

Not good...... I need to hurry back to Metel's house.

I won't be able to make it to the scheduled break-in time for Alberto.

No, maybe... time is running out.

I don't know the exact time because I don't have a clock in my room.

By now, Alberto and the others should be in a hurry with me gone.

If we don't make haste to rendezvous, but... we don't even know where this place is.

I have no land prospects for this city. Look out in anticipation of being a familiar view.

It's all empty out the window, not a single building of the same height around it.

I can see the city lights shining beneath my eyes pretty far.

Apparently I'm the tallest building in this city.

"... Oh, that? Could it be here?

And I have a very bad feeling about it.

Outside the window, I spotted a scuba flying in the air at the front, and I looked at it jiggly and I looked at it.

I smile and wave. I wave back my hand unexpectedly to Sacubas.

I can see a few other Sacubuses in the sky.

I get an answer for where I slept.

I am at the castle of Lidomdora.

There is only one place in this tall building where soldiers patrol.

Moreover, the top floor was due to the fact that the roof of the castle was visible nearby when I looked up through the window.

It's the floor with Corru and Berea.

(... you're not the worst!

Hold your head in an incredible situation.

What do I do, what do I do?

So, can we get out of here?... before anyone comes to the room.

Face out the window again and look down.

It is more than forty meters tall even if you look at it.

No... much higher than the city's outer walls.

Jumping off here is suicide.

Whatever Alberto is, it's Othi who catches me falling and being unable to move because of an injury.

There's no such thing as a building that you can fly to nearby, and when it's useless outside, you just have to get out of there.

Alberto told me about Lidomdora Castle.

If we find the magic formation of the castle, we should be able to escape.

Fortunately, the Mirage Ring is at my disposal.

Should I give it a try with a tick or a bee?... but if I run into Beria and Corl, I'll be caught for sure.

It is quite dangerous to roam this floor alone.

Maybe we should change our plans when this happens already.

Use this situation. Right now, I'm on the same floor as my brother by chance, so if I can get out of here first and later and somehow see my brother......

My brother can help me if I'm not in a state of fascination.

No, but... I don't even know where my brother is on this floor.

"... eh"

Concon...... and the sound of knocking on the door.

Shit, someone came to my room even though I hadn't even thought about it yet.

Slowly the door opened and it was the girl with the red hair twintailed who showed up in the room.

A blue-haired succubus that stands with it.

Me backwards reflexively against the Sacubas slowly approaching one step at a time.

I realize that the red-haired girl is the girl I saw when I lost my mind.

and at the same time slowly understand who brought me to this castle.

When I saw it at the store, my vision was sumptuous with sleep magic, and I didn't know.

(... this girl)

The way you stand with your offerings on the top floor of the castle is also consistent with the characteristics you were hearing about.

Even from the fact that I used a level of sleep magic that I couldn't resist...... probably.

"Ma, Demon King Korru!

……

"Dear………………………, right?

I notice the silence when I see a little wrinkle leaning over Corl's forehead.

First of all...... or I totally abandoned it.

I wasn't even ready for my heart in the face with the sudden demon king.

"Well... look, all of a sudden, you'd be surprised"

Great...... they forget what they say and do now. Ho, a relief.

It feels like I'm suddenly feeling weak, and I feel a little bad.

Nothing. I'm not one of Corl's men, but it's not a good idea to call the Demon King off.

I just can't imitate like this gargoyle.

"Dear Corlu, should we prepare something to drink that calms you down?

"Well, I'd like to take my time."

To see the exchange, it seems she was still the Demon King Corru that person.

Sacubus, his squire, leaves the room and becomes alone with Corul, the Demon King.

I don't know the bottom of that strength because it's covering up magic.

But it conveys a similar feeling when your brother is beside you.

I forcefully suppress body tremors, push fear to kill and relate to the Demon King.

"You don't have to be so vigilant, because I'm not going to do you any harm"

……

"I can't help it after what happened during the day."

I'm confused by that word, because it sounded like Corlu was genuinely worried and saying it.

Corl smiling to reassure me.

"Do you remember what happened at the store?

"... uh... yes"

Corl will carefully explain what happened in the store after I went to sleep.

Corlu came to the store during the day as part of an inspection of the city.

She was informed in advance of the crimes being committed in the store, and the store appeared to have been marked.

The time that Corlu came to inspect coincided with the scene where the men were just about to attack me.

Arriving at the store, Corlu is in a bunch of guys. Seems like he put them all to sleep using sleep magic so that no harm could be done when he saw me...

"No, I'm sorry I got involved, 'cause it was like we should hurry up a little bit."

"... yes, no, no, no, keep your head up"

Apologizing Demon King Corlu, I don't know... but things are going so crazy.

I was just on guard earlier, and this response feels like eating a shoulder watermark.

"Oh, thank you, help me..."

"Yeah, I'm sorry I made you nervous over here"

I'll draw on the story and thank her.

Well... I don't know how to misunderstand in that situation.

Of course, it didn't matter how many men attacked me to that extent.

For once though, Corlu was kind enough to help... right?

Honestly, it feels a little weird.

Though Corl's sleep magic complicated the situation.

"Speaking of which, you haven't even heard your name yet, have you?

"Oh, uh, Li... it's Marie"

"I see... you're Marie"

For a moment, I almost called him Liese, but decided to call him Marie.

Because I remembered that I was introducing myself to Berea with Liese.

Perhaps this matter could be passed from Corul to Beria.

Corlu's Kindness (?) Thanks to the response, I can only spare a little on my head.

I can think calmly now.

There is a conjecture floating from Corul's response so far.

This... maybe Corlu doesn't realize I'm your brother's sister, right?

I wouldn't have reacted this favorably if I knew she was my sister.

That should just feel more rugged. Well...... thanks to you for saving me.

I have had no experience with Corul in the past and the status quo is not suspicious.

Could this be normal for you to go outside?... such hope springs up.

I don't really want to stay long in this place.

He's disguised now, so he doesn't look the same as he did in the hot springs, but if he were to meet Berea and talk, he'd be suspicious with his voice. You'll remember the voice of the person you spoke to just a few days ago.

If I could, I'd go find my brother, but I wouldn't be able to do it in this situation with the demon king himself in front of me.

If they took the snail and found out it was an elf, they might associate it with your brother.

As far as Berea, I think you remember my face when I met you at the hot spring.

I want to ask Corl... if Beria is in this castle.

But if you ask, it'll definitely seem weird, won't it?

Talking to Demon King Corulu, an earlier Sacubus came back to the room with tea in it.

"... ah"

"Sit down, sit down..."

Tell Corl to sit in the chair provided in the room.

I really want to get out there fast, but I just can't take the decision to refuse the Demon King's invitation.

Drink warm tea with hot air across the street from Corl.

"I hope it fits Marie's mouth...... what do you think?

"Oh, it's delicious"

Seriously, there's no way I know what flavor it tastes like in this situation.

Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. I want stomach medicine, not tea.

At first glance, Corul's gaze was poured on me drinking tea.

"... duh, what's wrong? Look here."

"Hey, I thought you'd have a beautiful way to drink. Like some princess."

"Oh, ha... no"

Shh, sharp. For a moment, I also thought that the fact that such a statement popped up meant that I was... but it just seemed to say what I thought.

Though I often get stuck with Alberto or when I lose my mind.

Exactly. I'm going to be kicking ass in these places.

Yeah...... well, let's forget how we behaved in the hot springs as an exception.

……

Still, it's a strange situation.

It has a subtle almost atmosphere, thanks to Corlu's concern for me.

At least on the surface it would look like I'm bickering with Demon King Corlu.

Inside is not if you're doing this...... and in a hurry.

I have to get out of the castle and rendezvous with the Albertos.

But you can't make it unobstructed because they're the other guy.

But Corlu is really kind?

How much is it because of the magic of Corru that I will be polite to one woman, the Demon King, to this point immediately? It's generous aftercare, it's too broken.

I'm going to have a conversation with Corlu in surprise.

"Uh-oh, uh-oh, Cohon Cohon"

Where the conversation separates, Corul, the demon king, coughs deliberately to change the air.

"... Dear Corlu, this way"

"Mmm."

Corl receives a black cloth-like thing from his subordinate Sacubus.

"... uh, yeah, you know... I need to ask Marie a favor"

"Please, is it?

Corl, the demon king who moves his mouth with the mogomogo, seems to be unable to talk just a little bit.

Demon King Corulu begged me? Suddenly it passes and I accidentally find myself.

"Hey, I need you to put this on and bring me a meal to a room."

Hey, I don't know what you're talking about, this guy...

Corl hands me the black cloth Corl just received over the table.

Spread the handed cloth onto the table.

White frills in black fabric, long skirt, hand tips and fine embroidery at the bottom of the skirt.

Very familiar clothes for me.

Well, I've never worn it myself just to watch.

"Co, Dear Corlu... Is this made-up clothing?... right?

"Yeah, that's right."

Corl nodding clearly to my question.

It's not like it's spreading and observing clothes or magical tricks.

Fabrics that seem quite expensive are used, but their shape is in the general range of made-to-measure clothing.

When I look up, I see Corlu and I meet each other.

"There's a lot of things, a lot of things... I can't tell you the details, but I don't think it's dangerous."

……

Inside, it seems to have been conveyed that I am surprised.

Corl provides a supplementary explanation. Well, it was an explanation or just a dialogue that made me more alert.

Think about why you do this favor.

He wanted me to deliver the meal, but you could ask someone in Sacubus for that kind of distribution.

How could I?... and I get the idea.

"Can't you do something for me? After what happened to me, it's hard for me to ask you to do this... oh, maybe you have a promise or something after this?

"Yeah...... and"

Of course I do, but I can't even say, "I need to help you prepare to sneak into your castle..."

It's weird for me to say that already in the castle.

Demon King Corul poses as a favor with his hands superimposed in front of his chest.

Rich breasts thrive as your hands move.

... Yes, I'm a woman, even if I'm colored.

Is it unique to Sacubas to pose like this with nature?

"I don't mind if you leave the castle after delivery... please, of course I'll give you a reward"

I want you to let me go because I don't need a reward... how easy it would be to say that.

I want to refuse the request of the Demon King Corul, because he's full of suspicions.

But I can't believe the Demon King's favor... is actually like compulsion.

I can't say no even if I want to, Corlu should know that too.

It may have been the circumstance around there that has been oddly kind since I came to the room.

"Really, just deliver... right?

"Yeah, of course... that's all."

"... I get it"

reluctantly, but reply so that it does not appear on your face.

Corl grins with gratitude by holding my hand.

"Thanks! That'll help!

In this situation where Corlu is right beside the original, there is no alternative.

Assuming it's rampant, there's nothing you can do about it with your demon king, Corlu.

At least until Corlu is gone from the side, he needs to be grown up......

When I asked Corl about the subtle time, it's highly likely that Berea is away from the castle.

There is still more than an hour left for Beria to return from the hot springs.

If Berea is acting just like yesterday's time......

Unfortunately, we're not likely to make it to Alberto's scheduled intrusion time, but we'll hurry back and rendezvous later after we've completed Corl's requirements.

Sacubas trying to help me change into made-up clothes.

When I told him I was going to change myself because I was ashamed, he left with care.

Put your hands and feet through unfamiliar clothes, thinking that I wish I could just run away like this......

Finish dressing in made-up clothes even though I struggle a little.

I don't think there's anything strange about me to look in the mirror.

Call the Corlu's waiting at the door.

"Yeah, nice! Very good!

"Oh, thank you?

"It's not flattery, it's so cute! I can't wait to get it straight. If Marie's cute, you can make Gappo Gappo money at the store! Number one, no doubt about it."

"... aha..."

I haven't really flattered you, and I'm not happy at all.

He's probably complimenting me on being a corru.

My tension is pretty down though.

"hehe...... this would be"

Corlu, the Demon King, nods contentedly when he sees me.

Something was smiling black for a moment now...

Being a maid, I was taken from the room to the hallway by Corlu.

Dinner to deliver while I dressed was ready.

Slowly transport dinner on top of the service wagon to the desired room.

Because of unfamiliar maid clothes and nervousness, I can't walk straight and my footsteps are unstable.

"... it's okay, if anything happens, I'll protect you..."

……

That being said, this situation is hardly informed of anything.

I'd rather not be anxious.

Turn the corner of the hallway and stop in the room where the Demon King Corlu is located.

"Hooray."

"And excuse me"

After lightly knocking.

Corl walks inside without waiting for someone to respond across the room.

I follow her, too, on guard.

I'm watching the maids' movements at the castle for once, so I somehow know what to do.

"... Huh!

What came into my eyes was the look of a man reading a book at a table.

As soon as he enters the room and sees its side, his heart chops heavily.

I reflexively lose my strength and somehow recharge the tray of dinner I almost fell out of my hand.

"... to..."

"It's okay, you just have to be normal"

Says Demon King Corulu.

Not knowing the circumstances, she must have mistaken me for being so nervous that she almost dropped the tray.

Normally I don't know...... I can't.

It's up to me to be upset, because right now... who's in front of me?

Someone who was the reason I came to this city and who wanted me to be safe.

(Dear Brother Cliff!

Even though I'm about to scream its name, I remember the status quo and hold it in the back of my throat.

"... what, a lot more today... so?

Looking back slowly, brother.

The look on my brother's face, who didn't even move into the inexplicable entry of Demon King Corl, stopped completely when he looked at me.
