432 430 Consequences of the raid (1/2)
”Phew...”
”You won.”
Fran, who has disavowed the sword deification, restores the Count on one knee. Apparently, in disgrace, he watched the scene in which Fran defeated the Raiders. Instead, he said that seeing that sight made his consciousness too surprised to be clear for a moment.
Shortly after he recovers, he stops by Fran. However, that face did not have the kind of colour to question, it seemed to have pure praise and surprise.
”Whoa, whoa! What was that... what was that?
”Hmm?”
”I don't know what happened, but I know something awesome happened!
Apparently, thanks to the Count's obscurity, he has never used sword deification.
”That's Princess Black Thunder...... His Majesty the Beast King only likes you. No, it's better than that now.”
”Mm!”
Block the Count's words and Fran will set me up.
”Here we go again!
There were still signs of combat inside the mansion. The sound of a broken windowsill or an explosion caused by sorcery echoes.
――
”Count, step back”
”I can fight too! Goddamn it, everyone's safe!
Ten minutes later.
He had repelled the attacking raiders twice and was finally on his way to rescue elsewhere. The aftermath of sword deification has reduced your combat power, but you managed to win because you had one opponent and this one was two.
”This room!
”Mmm.”
It was in Bermelia's room that the two headed. There's no sign of battle from inside, but there's no sign of the Bermelians.
”Are you all right!
”Huh! Frederick”
The room was a terrible misery. The remains of beds and bookshelves are scattered and deep scars are worn on the walls and ceilings. There are two bodies of raiders among them. And Frederick is down.
A tremendous amount of blood was flowing from its body, and one sword was stabbed in its belly and back. The sword is falling down in a slightly distorted outfit with its side facing due to its intrusion.
”Greater Heels!”
”A little, be patient”
He wasn't critically dead. Recovery magic worked for me. Fran hurries closer to Frederick and pulls the sword out of his body at once. Oh, this is just a sword. It is not a pseudo-fanatical sword.
”Huh!
Frederick is awakened by the severe pain of being plucked out of his sword, but if this remains stabbed, it will recover and be painful. Forgive me here. Although I can't deny that Fran was a bit abusive.
We did more healing magic and succeeded in rescuing Frederick. But Frederick, who should be losing blood and losing strength, is forced to stand up and head for the window.
”No, rest.”
”Bermelia...! They got me!
”What! What are you talking about!
”With me on, there's no more.”
How dare one of the raiders take Bermelia's consciousness and say he escaped through the window. I thought their purpose was Count Baileys' life, but they weren't? No, and you failed, so you switched purposes? Anyway, it was over 10 minutes ago that Bermelia was taken away, and it seemed difficult to follow.
'If Ursi returns... No, if you're a wolf in the first place, you might notice. Let's wait for it.'
