Chapter 156 (2/2)

「Wha!?」

However, in contrast to my expectation, the woman was still there with a beaming smile.

「…Who are you?」

『Yea, I’m also wondering who am I at the moment? Well, staying for too long and running into him would be annoying so I will be taking those children with me and get going, ah, I will also take them as well.』

「You don’t?! I won’t let you?!」

『Too late.』

Before the Aqua Lance that was cast with no chant could even reach the ground, the pests that were lying around the place disappeared down the holes that opened below them for a split second.

『Now then, ta-ta♪ I hope from the bottom of my heart for the fulfillment of your plans♪』

「Stay righ..!!」

With a jeering laugh, the woman disappeared without leaving a trace.

Subsequently, only I and corpse of Gordes remained there.

「～～～～～ーーー!!! I cannot pick up traces of teleportation. Aah, why someone who would hinder me had to appear. I only want to follow the path of righteousness with Kaito-sama.」

I made a deep, deep sigh.

In any case, I need to calm down now. First, I should return to town and come up with countermeasures.

I already sent Kaito-sama into his original world. By separating our worlds, the connection between Kaito-sama and those pests was cut.

I have no idea what was that thing but since Kaito-sama will return to purity then there is no problem at all.

When I returned to town with such thoughts, I received the following piece of information that felt almost like mockery.

『A large swarm of demons is attacking the Theocracy.』
