Chapter 696

Chapter 696

Are you planning to buy my begging by showing me just one technique, Longcat?

Were you trying to insult me?

“I really, really ask you to show me one more time.”

It was too awesome a skill to be scolded like that.

It’s a space horror. One of the legendary techniques I’ve heard of since I was little is now being demonstrated before my eyes. How can I resist it?

“Ugh, I’m tired···”

Of course, this arrogant brat is also clearly aware of the greatness he has reached.

At my earnest request, Cheryl barely managed to hold back the corners of her mouth that were twitching as if she was about to ascend to the level of a clown, pretending to be tired, and after a moment of concentration, she swung her sword. Then, with a “kak!” sound, as if it wasn’t an illusion or a trick of the eye, a similarly sized sword mark appeared next to the spot where the shrapnel had just been thrown.

It really cuts! It’s not even sword wind or sword energy magic, but it really cuts a place where there’s nothing!

Finally, unable to bear this great achievement, Cheryl lifts her up and treats her like a lion queen, and an unmistakable sense of pride overflows from Cheryl’s face.

“I already knew you were a genius, but I didn’t want you to be this much of a genius···!”

To others, this may seem like a lot of nonsense, but in front of Space Cham, such reactions are as meaningless as a stone on the street.

“That’s amazing.”

But I was quite taken aback by Asili’s appearance, which only responded with something like, “Wow, that’s amazing! You worked hard!” while she was right next to me, jumping up and down and hugging Laika, who was rubbing her body against me, she was clearly surprised, but no matter how much I thought about it, it wasn’t something that could stop at that level.

“How can you be so calm after seeing this?”

“Hmm? No? I’m really surprised. I’ve never shown it before. I figured you’d get stronger if you worked hard, but I never imagined you’d be able to cut through space.”

Is it because they are elves that they have different senses? There are elves like Lumings who have the skills to defeat even dwarves with their crazy obsession and just hammer away at them, so for Asili, this kind of incredible ability may be secretly considered ordinary.

...Huh? So I have the ability to make Ashlie, who is used to such great things, grab the back of her neck every time? That might be a problem?

“By the way, did you get new armor?”

“Huh? Oh, I happened to get a chance and went to the Dwarf Kingdom to get a new one. This one was made for a dragon.”

“I thought it was going to be late, but oh my god!”

Even Cheryl, who achieved the feat of space magic, had her eyes sparkling as she examined my armor with Asili. No matter how much I thought about it, I was struggling with the thought that space magic was more surprising than dragon armor. It was the Laughing Bell gang that came much later on purpose that saved me.

“Sir, it would be better to move slowly···”

“Oh, I see. Everyone must be tired, but I was so surprised that I lost my mind.”

I got so excited that I forgot my age. But since it was something I couldn’t help but get excited about, I confidently put Cheryl down and hugged Leica instead.

“They said they would assign accommodations since there are so many distinguished guests from so many countries. Let’s talk about the details later and go and rest.”

“Haha, okay. I need to hear what happened during that time.”

“yes···?”

Why did you bring the schedule forward by two days? Did you change to a user while riding a carriage?

Even Cheryl tilted her head in confusion at the story that was difficult to accept, and the saintess nodded as if she understood.

“Unfortunately, Itisel’s side also seems to be unaware of what they did. They suddenly closed the distance as soon as they decided to act separately from the royal family...”

“Wait a minute. Separate actions? Are you saying we’re not coming together?”

“That’s what they say”

Uh... Is this by any chance a makeshift gate? If so, that would explain it, but that’s an imperial secret. No matter how important the envoy is, I don’t think they can use it so carelessly.

“Anyway, given the circumstances, I think I should ask you to accompany me. If it were an ordinary envoy, there would be no problem in meeting him alone, but since I sent a member of the royal family as an envoy···”

“···Are you saying that you sent a member of the royal family?”

It’s cold

A knife flies into my heart and stabs me. I asked this question hoping it would not be true, but unfortunately, the saintess answered in the affirmative.

“It is said that the first princess of the empire, known as the White Star of the Empire, is coming in person.”

Well, I am once again amazed by our hamster’s actions in such an unexpected way. It’s not surprising anymore...

···Wait a minute. You don’t already know about the mess that that straight-talking princess, Catherine’s sister, caused at the mansion, right? You were just trying to sneakily let it go without telling Asili, but aren’t you finding out in some weird way?

As soon as the incident was mentioned in the gathering of Asili, Lagnis, and even Esmu, the saintess suddenly lowered her voice and asked cautiously.

“By the way, is Miss Ogatorp okay?”

“Yes? Cheryl? She looks fine, except she looks a little tired. Why are you like that?”

I asked this question because I thought we had already become close friends since I joined the Siegfried Party and started working there...

“Are you sure about me?”

···The response that came back was far beyond expectations.

“Have you ever exhibited any behavior such as talking to yourself too much, acting as if you can’t hear the sounds around you, or suddenly pulling out a sword and moving it?”

The saintess was still standing on the doorstep, whispering as much as possible, but I knew that if Cheryl was determined and listened, she would be able to hear it.

So I leaned my upper body back slightly and turned my head to look at Cheryl. Cheryl met my eyes and looked away, burying her head between my shoulders.

Me too, but what are you doing here, Cheryl Cheryl?
