Chapter 127.2: Ruler of The Tomb

「Idiot.」

Reiji voiced out the thought we all had but did not dare to speak.

「YOU BASTARD!! HOW DARE YOU MOCK ME!!」

The prince with the short fuse got riled up.

I really wish Reiji would be careful with his remarks since it could become a troublesome matter later on.

Harsesh pointed his sword at Reiji. His was a one handed sword with a warped blade, it was a generic sword in Gypseal called khopesh (Sickle sword).

Its curved blade had the might of an axe.

「Calm down, prince. We should focus on retrieving the pyramid.」

Just as Harsesh was about to charge forward, Totona stopped him and entered in between the two of them.

It was obvious that Harsesh wanted to show his good side to Totona.Rread latest chapters at novelhall.com

「You’re right Totona... Be thankful “hero”, you were just saved by the skin of your neck.」

Harsesh returned his sword into its sheath.

「Sure, feel free to interpret it in that way...」

Reiji seemed to be fed up with Harsesh too. He was definitely too lazy to even mock Harsesh.

「Isdes-dono, may I hear your plan?」

Isdes nodded after hearing Totona’s question.

「Yes, Totona-dono. Our enemy outnumbers us, but they’re mostly undead. They’re weak to light magic. Reiji-dono, Harsesh-sama, I request that the both of you use light magic. In addition, since the mummies have resistance against light magic, they won’t get annihilated by Harsesh-sama and co’s magic. That’s why we’re going to break-in from the front.」

So according to Isdes’ explanation, we were going to break-in from the front. But, it might be because there was no other choice.

「What are we going to do about the captured people?」

When Totona asked this, Isdes tilted his head in puzzlement.

「What do you mean, Totona-dono?」

「The culprits for the large scale disappearance case are most probably those Apophis folk. Some people might have fallen victim to them and been caught. Not to mention that some cat scouts are among them.」

We had also heard about the disappearance cases. The culprits might indeed be the Evil Gods of Apophis. Meaning that they might have hostages to use at their advantage.

「We’re going to abandon them. Our utmost priority is taking back the pyramid, or destroy it.」

Harsesh nodded hearing Isdes’ remark.

「Totona, those captives will only become a hindrance for us. We really have no other choice.」

Harsesh and Isdes’ opinion was right.

But, Totona didn’t seem to accept that.

「If possible, I want to save them.」

「But the problem is, we have no idea where they were taken as captives, or whether they’re still alive or not.」

Totona shook her head hearing Isdes’ remark.

「It’ll be alright. I can get in-depth information in my own way. Prepare the pyramid map for me.」

「Ha~h, I understand Totona-dono. Nephthys, bring me the interior map of the pyramid.」

「As you wish, Our God.」

After Nephthys nodded, one of his subordinates returned with a map.

「Thanks.」

Totona took out a book after expressing her gratitude to Nephthys and co.

「No, wait a minute, that mummy over there, can you come forward?」

Reiji pointed at one particular mummy in the back.

The mummy who got called by him came forward.

「Tch!! We got found out, eh!! EVERYONE DO IT!」

The voice didn’t come from the mummy’s mouth, it came from his abdomen.

Suddenly, the mummy’s abdomen burst apart, and a small shadow leapt out from within.

「ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! A RATMAN?!?」

Yes, they were ratmen.

And there were more of them.

More ratmen came out from the belly of a few other mummies.

「THOSE F*CKING CATS SAW THROUGH OUR DISGUISE!!」

Those ratmen closed in quickly toward the cats.

「EVERYONE PREPARE FOR BATTLE!!」

「「「NYA~~~!!!」」」

All of the cats unsheathed their rapier at once.

The ones who replied to Nel’s call, the cats in boots, were the ones hailed as Nyanko Fencers (catsith swordsmen).

Each of them was so adorable that I wanted to kidnap one of them and bring them with me back home for some fluffing.

The Nyanko Fencers executed the ratmen in succession with ease.

As one would expect from the royal guards of the princess. We didn’t have to make a move.

「No way, they spied on us...」

Nephthys was the one who was shocked the most.

The same goes for Isdes.

「Maybe they have the ability to erase their presence till its utmost limit. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to infiltrate.」

Totona started her explanation.

In fact, Isdes had already been aware about the existence of the rats inside this place.

But, he failed to notice that they were not normal rats.

That made those rats even more troublesome.

「Indeed, meaning that the information has probably leaked to our enemy. Now those guys will be waiting to ambush us.」

Reiji let out a daring smile as he spoke.

Yeah, there was no point in launching a surprise attack anymore since they were already aware of our plan.

But then, we still had to take back the pyramid to save Shirone.

And this was the risk I took for that.
