Transition to Another World, Landmines Included

271 Continuous and Case Investigations (6)

We left the morgue and went back to the room, and we had been briefed by Sazius on what we knew so far.

"First, Toya and the others confirmed it, but the vampire's body was found"

The sight of Hulka and the others turns to us in unison for that word of Sazius.

In contrast, when me and Toya nodded, the Hulkas also gave a slightly more complicated look.

"Then, after searching that house over there, some bodies of goods were looking for missing persons"

"Is that... did you sneak into that house? Could our presence have rushed...?

"Maybe, but I don't think you need to worry about it, okay? Take responsibility for your actions yourself. That must be the adventurer, right?

Sazius shakes his head to the side while agreeing lightly to the words that Hulka leaked.

"... right"

"Well, the goods are at hand. There was another person in that house over there. It was on the missing persons list, you're a 16-year-old woman. This one's alive."

"Yes!? You were there? Over there? You did all that nonsense and you didn't have a reaction?

Yuki raised her voice to the surprising information that Sadzius had done.

I wasn't caught up in my foe either... No, the two girls upstairs, they were also unresponsive, so of course there's a chance they won't notice, but it's truly unexpected that there were other survivors.

"Try searching. Even so, he wasn't talking about being trapped in the basement, or anything like that, he was sitting in bed and bluffing."

Is it in the same condition as the girl then?

Is it going to be a state of fascination that has not received any particular order?

"Another thing, as good news, seems to have solved the effects of vampires dying or the fascination"

It was around noon that the charm was lifted and the girls' condition returned to normal.

We step into that house, like, a few hours later.

At that time, the reason was unknown, but then the suspicious body was found, and it seems to be the vampire.

"Good, you should say...... how are the girls?

"It's not that bad about the three of us that we brought back. compared to the victims of similar incidents."

Sadzius refers to cases of sexual assault and abduction.

It seems that only the lead soldier has the opportunity to deal with the victims of the incident that said so, and that (...) of the (...) harmed (...) people (...) and (...) are (...) still in a better mental state.

Even if I remember what was done, it seems to be a half-dreaming state, because I wasn't forced to do it.

"But the last one I found, she's pretty confused. You're reading the material, right?

"Er... maybe the guy you were with was found more dead?

"Oh, that's it. What you're saying is disjointed... apparently, they made me kill my lover."

"" "... Wow" "

Unexpectedly, we all leak our voices.

He also told Halka to kill me, or something, and I might do it... but it won't be stylish.

It's a messy trauma.

"Is that... are you okay?

"It's hard to say it's okay, but there's nothing we can do. If my family had money, I might ask a cleric with good arms to treat me... I don't know."

Sazius' expression when he said so is quite dark.

Speaking of which, the victim's girlfriend's family, when we went to talk to her, didn't respond very well either.

I wasn't going to be rich, and I'd rather be ashamed of her - no, given what they said about being pretty close to it, what would I do to her back...

"Can I see her? Not as good as my main job, but I can use some healing magic, so I might improve a little..."

It was Hulka with a wrinkle on his forehead who made such a suggestion.

As for the healing magic of the mental system, there is a level 9 magic called "Mad Healing" Cure Insanity, "but naturally this is not fully usable either, and it seems a little troublesome to be known to be usable high-end magic.

Because if you leave her alone, her future, which was helped by it, is dark.

I guess the suggestion after considering them is its vague mouthpiece.

"I appreciate it as this one, but is it good? Normally, you're gonna need a lot of money to get you to use healing magic, right?

"Because I got involved"

"Hmm. If that's the case, let's allow it. Just leave it to the women, will you? It doesn't feel so good when a man gets close."

"Then let's go with me and Natsuki, Yuki. Good?"

"Yes, I don't mind."

"Yeah. That's kind of pathetic."

"Okay. Then I'll show you later. So, it's the Lord's decision, and now he admits that he's done what he asked you to do. As far as the rest of the missing are concerned, you're within normal limits."

"I appreciate that... is that good?

"No problem. It's supposed to be part of our army. Satomi's search has also been scaled down."

I don't know what “normal range missing" means, but if they say something like that, there's nothing we can say.

"And here's your reward."

Sazius looks up a little and opens his mouth as he gives me one seal he took out of his nostrils.

"Er..." This is a document that recognizes ownership as a lord, but please accept the official document issued by the King later from Diora. "I'm not sure, but I did tell you what I said, didn't I?

"Roger that. Thanks."

"This is it, this time it helped. Not only about Elias, but about the vampires. If you are going to continue to work in this area, I know you will have the opportunity to get involved, but otherwise, call me when you come to pinning. Training with you is well worth it."

Sazius says so, shaking hands with each and every one of us, leaving the room.

When we dropped it off, we quickly opened the seal we received from Sazius and checked the documents inside.

"Ooh, pretty excited? It says," Dungeon, give us six kilometers radius from its entrance. "

"Well, you also have the signature of Viscount Nenas... In terms of area, isn't it about the size of a small town?

Of course, in Japan, though.

A circle with a radius of six kilometers is over a hundred square kilometers, right?

The town we lived in - no, how big was the city?

A lot of mergers have made it pretty broad, but if it were old, it might be about this.

"There's usually a city like this. Face as a nobleman...... no, may I ask? I wonder if there's a part of you that cares?

"For once, we will have saved Master Ilias' life. In addition to that, we have this request."

"If you don't have a use for it anyway, does it feel like you can behave somewhat overwhelmingly - or what?

Hmm.

Well, I don't have a use for it, whether it's from us or from that wide a range.

"In the meantime, can we even build a house? At the entrance to the dungeon. There's nothing for anyone."

"I think it's a good idea to keep the transfer points safe, but you don't have that skill, do you?

"There you go, prefabricated?

carrying capacity and have more power than the average person.

If you use magic in combination, you might be able to handle a little building.

Yuki and Natsuki gave me a slightly troubled look at my suggestion like that.

"Would Mr. Simon make it? It's good to ask..."

"Isn't the problem with money? I have used it for a long time..."

"Speaking of which, you said you used it pretty well"

"Excuse me. I have a lot of delicious ingredients."

"Oh, no, I don't mind. We're eating too. - But when it does, it's a golden solution first."

Apparently, we're going to dive into the dungeon without much time off when we get back to Raffan town.

When we were discussing exactly what schedule to act on, the door to the room was knocked and a single female soldier came in.

The numbers are small, but even among the soldiers in charge, there are female soldiers.

With her guidance, which was dropped by Sazius, the Hulkas left for a while.

Less than half an hour later, Natsuki and Haruka came back to make sure it was brought to Yuki's shoulder.

"Welcome home. How'd it go?

"... things aren't so good. I tried my best."

"The result is like this..."

Was it subtle as a response, the look on Haruka and Natsuki's face is unbelievable.

"Regenerate" that if fully functional, even lost arms will be regenerated.

In a situation where the effect is "I don't even realize the regeneration of scars on the surface of the skin", even under one of them, level 9 magic, unfortunately, the more the effect will be known.

"But if the Hulkas had magic, they wouldn't have calmed down a bit, would they? So don't think it didn't work."

Yuki, who sat the two of them in bed, gives a slightly brighter voice, as she follows those Hulkas.

Well, there's no need for the Hulkas to care either.

"At least, four women's lives could have been saved, that's good, right?

"It's tough not to break it off. Natsuki and Haruka did what they could. That would be nice."

"I know..."

"Yes......"

Unlike those of us who haven't seen the person in person, as the Hulkas who have been face-to-face, it's still not easy to break them off, even as they nodded, their expressions remained indelible for some time.

corner of Pinning town.

On the wall of a crumbling abandoned house.

In the shadow was the figure of the man.

Blue and white complexion and a lost arm from the shoulder.

The left foot is also from the middle of the thigh, and the right foot is not from the ankle down.

As brought to the wall in that condition - no, I was there in a collapsed state.

"Are you kidding me... if you're a vampire, you won't recover the damage..."

Man in such a situation - Kaji goes bad, but in fact where he recovered, on the contrary, his health continued to drain.

Lost arms and feet.

There is no blood flowing from it, but Kaji did feel something invisible, something like life spilling.

"Now you look like a vampire at all. They have teeth..."

Energy Drain was supposed to be a powerful ability.

There is only one weakness that you can't use unless you materialize, but when you tried it before, you succeeded in killing them in a few moments after grabbing their hands.

If you can strike a surprise, it's the strongest thing you can do, even if you can't, if you become a bat, if you become fog, and you circle behind them.

Kaji thought so.

But he was completely powerless against the person he was taking care of.

How dare you go grab it from the front?

Even if you can get around behind your back successfully, the moment you materialize and grab someone, the other four will slash you to death.

Such a situation.

In the first place, if you think you've been attacked accurately even by a small bat, and you've become an immaterial fog, you've also taken damage with a weapon attack on top of being burned.

There was no room at all to bring it into the energy drain.

"Damn it! Why aren't you attracted at all?"

Since it has never failed at all before, Kaji was confident in terms of its ability to attract.

Instead, I don't care if I don't have any other abilities as long as I have this.

So much so that I think so.

But in earlier battles, the Hulkas had no effect at all and could not even create a gap.

Why is that?

With a boisterous head, Kaji contemplated and eventually reached one answer.

"... oh well. Level difference?"

At a time when the level was not indicated in the status, I had almost forgotten about it, but now I remember the first evil god saying, "The level will rise."

"Ha ha... Me, I didn't do anything that would level me up..."

Even when traveling from town to town, I haven't used my fascinated opponents to fight at all, and naturally, I haven't trained in combat, etc.

Speaking of what I did, in energy drain practice, I just killed a few people.

"It can't work. For a year, the adventurer had the ability to use Level 1."

Regardless of the actual level difference, I become aware of the difference between the Naos, who solidified themselves in solid gear, and myself, who for a year was a self-depraved slut, and the Kaji becomes strangely convinced.

Only the protagonist of the story can level zero beat level five.

I simply wasn't. That's all.

"Ha... well, you know what? I was supposed to die then. The year I spent over here was extra stage. I can't do that over there. Experience, I've enjoyed it a lot..."

So whine, Kaji reminds me of this past year.

I did what I wanted with charm, and I killed people.

I also did a lot of things to get caught by the police if I did it in Japan.

"In short, it's a crumb business..."

While I'm at it, Kaji laughs.

karma.

With that in mind, this end is also natural.

But rather than end up doing nothing, I could have liked it, shouldn't I just be satisfied with it - I thought so, and Kaji looked up at the blue sky visible from the collapsed wall.

"Oh, it's not bad... this is how it ends..."

The body of the loose ground falls to the ground and stays motionless.

But his face was loose, strangely satisfied.
