The Enemies Launch an Attack
Thank you for reading at bayabuscotranslation.com)
“Where is everyone?” (Harold)
“Don’t worry. His Highness Owen is with Marion and Lloyd-sama. Liliana-sama is with Liz-sama, Christia-sama, and Carla-sama.” (Monica)
After receiving Monica’s report as she returned to the room, I nodded.
Given that there was a high possibility that they would attack tonight, I had already instructed everyone to stay in groups of three or four for caution. I had considered having everyone stay in the same room, but that would make it difficult to move in a place like this, and moreover, if we did something that obvious, the enemies might make a drastic move.
“Hehe… I wonder when they’ll arrive. Then, we can leave this old tower and enjoy the journey back to the royal capital with Haru-sama.” (Alexandra)
Wearing armor, Xandra’s crimson eyes sparkled with excitement.
I don’t know who will come to this room, but I can only say “good luck” to them.
“Sigh… If that happens, the food I prepared, sacrificing all of His Highness Harold’s belongings, will be wasted.” (Monica)
Monica sighed, resting her hand on her cheek.
Before that, could you do something about my luggage that you ruined? At this rate, it’s a certainty that I won’t even be able to change my underwear.
“Haru! Haru! Once we get out of here, I want to make a detour to Morn Island… is that okay?” (Casparleague)
Cas snuggled up to my cheek and looked up at me with pleading eyes.
What is this partner of mine? So cute.
“Of course, no problem. It’s been three years since then, and we can also visit Cas’ mother’s grave.” (Harold)
“Yay! Thank you, Haru! I love you!” (Casparleague)
“Hahaha! That tickles!” (Harold)
Overjoyed, Cas spun around on my shoulders and relentlessly licked my cheek.
But why are Xandra and Monica looking at us with such longing expressions? …Well, whatever.
“Ah! Your Highness, above!” (Monica)
“Understood!” (Harold)
“Yeah!” (Casparleague)
In the blink of an eye, Cas transformed into the Jet Black Shield Casparleague, facing the ceiling.
“Wh-What!? Impossible!” (??)
“Too naïve. Did you think you could launch an attack with that?” (Alexandra)
At the same time as the surprised voice of the purple-hooded man, Xandra instantly took the man’s back, and before he could even make a sound, he was cleaved horizontally, half of his face cut off.
“The tattoo on his right hand is of a Gnome… One of the ‘Four Extremes’… Sorry, I forgot the name.” (Harold)
“Haru-sama, this person did not introduce himself earlier. Therefore, it is natural that you don’t know his name.” (Alexandra)
“Ah, I see.” (Harold)
Xandra provided a follow-up, but the real issue was that I had forgotten the name of the event boss from ‘Enhaz’.
It is a little embarrassing. But, as a heavy user of ‘Enhaz,’ forgetting the name of the event boss is something I need to reflect on. I’ll make sure to remember the name before this event is over.
“But as expected, His Highness Harold was right. They… made a move.” (Monica)
“Yeah.” (Harold)
In the scenario of “The Broken Doll Hidden in the Magic Tower”, the protagonist and heroines would be trapped in the dungeon after being drugged in the banquet food. Since that couldn’t happen, they were definitely going to resort to force.
“More importantly, let’s head to the rooms of the others. They must be under attack as well.” (Harold)
“Yes.” (Alexandra/Monica)
We rushed out of the room, keeping an eye on our surroundings, and first headed towards Liz and the others’ room.
“Liz! Everyone!” (Harold)
We burst into the room by force, but…
“Ugh! Ugh! It’s because of you all that I’m hungry!” (Liliana)
“W-Wait…!? Gupeeeh!?” (??)
The poor purple-hooded woman was knocked into the wall by a powerful stomach punch from Liliana, letting out a strange sound before falling silent.
That was a bit of an overkill, wasn’t it?
“Is everyone… okay?” (Harold)
“Y-Yes… thanks to Liliana, we’re safe.” (Lizette)
Even Liz, normally so composed, looked utterly shocked by Liliana, who had turned into a demon.
Given the hunger, it was probably all her frustration that was unleashed onto that woman. Poor thing was totally collateral damage.
“With this, only two of the ‘Four Extremes’ remain.” (Harold)
“Haru-sama, what is the ‘Four Extremes’?” (Christia)
“Oh, Christia-san, you didn’t know about it.” (Harold)
As we headed toward Owen’s room, I explained the ‘Four Extremes’.
They were four subordinates of the Magic Tower Master, McLaren, each wielding advanced magic corresponding to their respective elements. The most distinctive feature was that they all had tattoos of their elemental spirits on the backs of their right hands.
“This woman’s right hand tattoo is Undine. In other words, she is a user of water magic.” (Harold)
“I see… no wonder.” (Carla)
Carla nodded as she observed the woman still embedded in the wall.
Considering the wetness around the room, at the very least, the enemy had used magic.
“Oops, we can’t waste any more time. Let’s head to Owen’s room.” (Harold)
Owen aside, Lloyd also has decent skills as a ‘Galhaz’ character, and Marion has her ‘Battle Axe Sky Drive’. They shouldn’t fall behind even against a single event boss… I hope.
“Owen! Are you okay!?” (Harold)
We rushed into Owen’s room, but what greeted us was just the wrecked room. Unfortunately, Owen and the others were nowhere to be found.
