To Be a Power in the Shadows!

As I walked out of Clara's room blurry down the hallway, I felt signs of approaching me from behind.

When I felt the signs of the event and waited, I was suddenly shouldered.

"Hey, new guy! You got into the princess!

Saying that with a nasty grin was a doemy chimp.

My surroundings are surrounded by doemy chimps.

Five...... no, six.

Zach was grinning bitterly at how he didn't feel behind the group.

"Hey, I need to ask you a favor, will you listen to me?

With a stinking breath, a chimp says in his ear.

"Hey, what is it...?

I said not only my voice but my whole body vibrated fine. [M] I feel like a slime staring at a dragon.

"You don't have to freak out like that. If you do us a favor, we're friends."

"Ha, ha..."

"Do me a favor, you're the only one who gets along with the princess. We'd like to talk to the princess, but her surroundings are getting in the way. So I want you to take the princess out."

"Me...?

"Yes, you're the only one who can. I don't care how. I'll lend you one of these."

That's what the chimps took out was powder.

"If you mix this medicine with a drink, the surroundings and the princess will soon be in your dreams"

"So, but this is what happened to me..."

"Holy shit!! Can't you ask my friend for a favor?!? I want to hurt you!

"Hino..."

I shrink when I am intimidated by Doss' gracious voice.

"Ah, can I have a word? I don't think that's a very violent imitation."

From outside the group, Zach spoke with a pulled face.

"Oh, my God, Zach. How long have you been a pacifist?"

"Sa, lately? Anyway, let's be gentler, no violence, just now."

"I'm not kidding, can you do it if you do!! Taking a princess hostage is quick to lure an owl!!

That's what the chimp punched me in the face. [M]

As soon as my fist touches my face, I pull out my strength and shake my head, completely absorbing the shock.

It's a technology called Slipping Away.

The general idea is that if you get hit in the head, people have a concussion, but if you know how to get hit, it's something you can tolerate outdoors.

There are two ways to get beaten. Use your strength to endure, or drain and flush.

I did the latter. [M]

He shakes his head and flushes the impact of his fist, so he also has a high mob point for looking like he got punched in the flash.

"Ugh..."

I fall in the hallway pretending to be blown away.

"I gave you good advice and I tried to stop you, okay, you're gonna be okay, right?

Zach was making an unrelated appeal as he retreated.

"You're going to have to take the princess out. I'll wait three days. If I can get him out, I'll give him a nice meal. But if I can't get him out..."

Chimps step on me and weigh in.

"Remember, I'll kill you."

That's what they left behind, and they walked away.

"Hmm, I see. Are you going to lure Clara into hostage?"

You're smart.

I stand up with the dust on my clothes.

Then, Zach, you came back for some reason.

"I think it's gonna be okay, but a lot of things are gonna be okay, right? It doesn't matter if I'm just watching."

For some reason, Zach, freaking out, you say.

"No problem. All assumed."

"Nah...... you're telling me you were reading something like this!? I was also surprised to get into the princess that way, but I was looking ahead...... so..."

"The story has moved... as planned..."

I smile deeply at Zach for a glance at you.

"... ugh! Oh, what the hell are you...! Oh, are you a Kingslayer? You don't look like a Doeme..."

"... I'm neither"

"Neither...?

"I'm not a Kingslayer or a Doemman. My enemies..."

I cut the words there and left the words as they disappeared on the fast trip.

"'Malice' lurks behind the two factions..."

"Heh, gone!? Only my voice can hear me!?

Zach, you're looking around with a stunned face.

Well, what do we do now?
