61 CHAPTER XXI -- RESCUE Sherry (2/2)

If I killed them, I wouldn't be allowed to talk to them.

”Oh, my God. ...... Who are you?” in an instant for a kid like this.

It doesn't matter. Besides, it's my line.

Shit. ......

The man looked around.

”You can't try to run away. You won't get away with it. So give up.

Yeah, ...... not going to get away with it, huh?

As if to catch me off guard, the man shot a lightning spell from his concealed hand.

'It's useless, yes, it's over.'

I dodged the spell easily, and shot the leader in the gut with a fist .

The leader collapsed, clutching his belly.

What should we do with these guys... Ah, there's a good place for the wagon. Let's take the wagon to the castle.

Then I'll finish packing the men into the wagon and I'll go get Sherry.

Am I late?

Yeah, it's late.

Sorry. I'm sorry. I was just trying to keep up appearances.

As I say this, I will break Shelley's shackles with my sword.

Then I pick her up.

”Is that so?　Then I forgive you.

Thank you. Can I cry?

It's so late I can't even hold back the tears.

'Oh my, then you should have rushed it...'

Saying this to myself as I climbed off the roof.

'Huh?　Who are those men?

In the wagon. Don't worry, they're all unconscious.

I reassured Sherry as I sat down next to her and began to drive the carriage.

I'd seen and learned to drive a carriage on a few trips.

I mean, it's my first time.

But I'm not worried.

It's the middle of the night, and there aren't many people on the road, so I guess you can handle a little rough driving.

As I was driving the carriage with that thought in mind, Shelly put her head on my shoulder.

”Leo ......

What?

'Thank you for helping me today . Honestly, I'd given up on the idea of being enslaved with no one to help me anymore.

'I'm really sorry ...... I should have asked you back what happened when you got your first reminder .......

I really should have checked on that one.

I got the telepathic message: ”...... I talked to that red-haired guy when he kidnapped me.

'Red hair...... Speaking of which!　I forgot to find Allen!

I was so focused on helping Shelly that I forgot.

Allen was provoking me.

Yeah, he'd be gone by the time I woke up.

Where did he go?　Did you know I was coming?

'Well, ...... I'll have to do it again sometime.

'Yeah, please. ....... Hey, Leo.

What?

I answer when I'm called.

Turn around.

'What?　Yeah.

I don't know, but I do as I'm told and turn to Sherry.

”Thank you for today.

Shelly kissed me lightly.

”What?　Huh?

I'm a mess right now.

I'm all red in the face.

Turn around. Drive safely, please.

'What?　Oh, yeah.

I couldn't help but look forward to hear what Shelly had to say.

Sherry's face, which I saw for a moment, was also very red: .......

Thus, Sherry's rescue was a success.
