103 Black lion (2/2)

But doesn't this man know how to calm down? Very annoying.

”Duh!　It's like this!　Looks like I have no choice but to use my good looks to captivate the brave men!

My mother wriggles around creepily.

It's very creepy. Even the nearby goblins in the entourage are about to vomit.

I wonder if that would be a better way to repel the brave men.

Even the brave man, as expected, would run away from this uncomfortable feeling.

It was when we were talking about such things.

Suddenly, a magic circle appears in the air.

'It seems we've met in time. Gero-gero-gero.

Appearing from the magic circle was the goddess Herkert with the head of a three-necked frog.

''Lady Herkert ah!　Where have you been~！！！！！！！！！！！！

My mother clings to Herkert, sniffling.

'You're completely helpless. I've brought you some reliable help.

When Herkert says that, several magic circles appear in the air.

Multiple shadows come out of those magic circles. Some of them look like humans, while others are deformed.

What are they?

Um. Master Herkert. Who are these people?

My mother asks, tilting her head.

Hmm, these are all the male gods who have been courting the goddess Raina. It seems that they all have been rolled up on their sleeves, though. Guess what?

I look at those who have appeared at Herkert's word.

They all emit a ridiculous sense of intimidation.

'I don't like what I'm hearing,' says Herkert. Herkert, I'll tell you what. I'm not being wore up on my sleeve. They just don't know what I'm capable of. What kind of brave man is this? He's such a jerk. I'm going to kill him and show him who's worthy of being Raina.

A frightened-looking man-god crowded in on Herkert.

Yes. That's right. ”Why should we let a stranger steal our beauty from the heavens? How can we just sit back and do nothing?

'Yes!　That's right!

Oh, God!　A man who looks frivolous doesn't deserve a heavenly beauty princess!

'I've had a crush on Raina for hundreds of years!　How could that be for a man like that!

Yes, sir!　Raina-chan is mine!

'Oh?　Who said anything about the front?　Get out there!　Of course it's mine!

What are you guys saying? A princess as beautiful as her is exactly what I deserve.

'What?　You scumbag!

The male gods almost got into a fight.

'Machina!　Stop fighting!

A powerful magical force is released from the hellcart.

I'm about to be chilled by the pressure.

Suddenly, the male gods look at the hellcart.

''You'll decide who's worthy of being the heavenly beauty after you kill the heroes. It shouldn't be too late after that. Gero Gero Gero.

Herkert says with a grin and the male gods look at each other.

'It sure is: ......

Yeah, I'd have to kill that scofflaw first.

I guess we'll have to put this game on hold until then.

I will kill anyone who tries to take my Raina away from me.

It's like a lie about the bleak atmosphere we had before.

The castle was about to collapse.

Now, this is the end of the story. The only thing left to do is to wait for the heroes to enter the wards. Then no one will be able to see what is inside. I'm sure you'll be able to find out who killed your beloved, and you won't have to worry about being hated by Raina. Guess what?

Herkert laughs.

It seems that Herkert had been going around gathering those who had a grudge against the brave men of light while he was not in this castle.

The fact that he was able to gather them in such a short period of time means that he may have planned it in advance.

While I was thinking about this, a magic circle appears.

The one who emerged from the magic circle is the one with the black lion's head. It has a huge great sword on its back.

''Hmph. I'm not sure how many people have gathered here. You don't know what you're doing.

The one with the black lion's head looks at the gathered male gods and mutters.

The mouth of the lion's head is not moving. The black lion's head is probably a cover-up.

''Oh, I didn't expect you to come too. I didn't expect you.''

Hm. Old froggy. I'm not going to let you go. I'll have to kill that bastard who calls himself the Hero of Light first.

A powerful killing spirit is emitted from the black lion.

It's not just to Herkert. It's for everyone here.

That powerful killing air makes the male gods tense up again.

Who is that person with the black lion's head?

Wow. I didn't expect him to come too~. That's funny!　Let's report to Lady Coona ASAP!

The clown behind me says happily.

It seems that the clown has figured out who the black lion is.

''Not even the bravest man would be able to win against all these gods. And it doesn't matter how many men who are not part of the Modes boys get hurt. Guess what?

Herkert's laughter echoed through the hall of the Castle of Sweets.

Raina, the beautiful princess in heaven.

What's going on?　Tona?　It's very unusual for you to ask me.

I greet Tona at the doorway of my mansion in Elyos.

'I have some business to attend to. Raina. Have you seen my brother? I don't think he's in Elios.

Brother? What's wrong with Toles? He's not in Elios? What does that mean?

Tors is charged with protecting Elyos.

As such, he rarely leaves Elios.

”I don't know. ”I don't know, but my brother has been approached by an outsider. I thought my brother might be consulting with you, but he's not. I interrupted him. I'm leaving.

With that, Totona leaves.

Toles and an outsider. What does that mean?

The Tors do not like those who do not belong to Elyos.

The Sea King Triden, who is always outside of Elyos, is a possibility, but Triden wouldn't hide and make contact with him.

Therefore, those outside would be those who do not belong to Elyos.

And that's why they contacted the Tors? He didn't even turn away. What does that mean?

I had a bad feeling about it.
