Chapter 310: The three baba yagas
We left the red flower girl's house and decided to head to where I first met Baba Yaga to meet her. The most likely person to know what was going on was Baba Yaga. I get a ride from Hix and the other three get a ride from Stra and we move on.
Then we spotted Baba Yaga right away.
"Oh? It's that little boy from earlier. Come to get beaten up again?"
"No, I came to ask about Prince Finist"
Then Baba Yaga laughs.
"I don't know any prince like that!"
Baba Yaga then sent a fire arrow flying. Hix and Stra ducked.
"Hey! Lets not. Takuto! She's attacking us!"
"...I see. Then let's fight back..."
I take out my Scarlet Ring. Baba Yaga is surprised to see it.
"...You have something quite unusual. Boy"
"I'm still a novice, so I'll have to use it"
"Huehuehue. It's interesting, isn't it? This is going to be a fancy magic battle!"
Me and Baba Yaga will be shooting magic at each other. At first the magic is weak and then it gradually becomes stronger. Since it was a special opportunity, we decided to use mainly wind magic.
Then, Baba Yaga moves into the forest.Read latest chapters at novelhall.com Only
We chase after her. After a while, we came to an open area in the forest. Then a building like a warehouse on stilts appears in front of us. We recognize it.
Baba House?
? ? ?
This is the house of Baba Yaga in the Baba Yaga folklore. The problem is that it's the part where they treat you like a monster.
But once you get this far, there's no backing down. I get off Hix. Then, Arleigh asks me.
"Hey...Takuto. You're not going to go in there, are you?"
"What choice do we have if we come all this way and don't go in?"
"That's true, but...this is turning into a monster, you know?"
"And I don't have a good image of the Baba Yaga house..."
Well, that opinion is very true. But I'm sure I'll be fine. Because the magic battle earlier, though spectacular, did not really cause any damage to our side.
It was as if she was showing someone that she was serious about fighting us. I can think of no other reason for the demon to play such a trick on Baba Yaga.
"If you won't go, I'll go alone"
"All right! You got it!"
"You..."
"I, I'm coming with you!"
Chiffon's words caused everyone to enter the Baba House. Arleigh resisted, but when I told him it was a chance to get a large number of points, he easily changed his hand.
"Sorry to interrupt"
"Huehuehue. I'm glad you came without fear...well, don't sit down"
We sit down in our chairs.
"May I ask you about Prince Finist?"
"Of course...Prince Finist is in the hands of a demon under the control of Demon King Bael. He is now sleeping in a prison in a cave that no human can reach"
Well, that's what's coming.
"I wonder if they went to all that trouble just to play with us?"
"That's a bonus. First of all, demons love human bad emotions. You know, the ones who are caught up in the bad feelings over Prince Finist's disappearance"
She means the girl with the red flower.
"And a hostage to us. Thanks to that, we've been watched by the demon and have no choice but to deal with humans"
So Baba Yaga is set up to be related to Prince Finist or something.
"Emm~I'm sorry, but isn't this a bad place to talk about it?"
Chiffon asks me that, but I think we're talking because it's okay.
"This house was made by me. Even the demon can't see into this house. It is natural for a lady to protect her privacy"
Well, I guess surveillance is out the door all the time.
"Sure, but are you sure the demons won't find out?"
"This house was originally a magic house that sucked the vitality and magic power out of humans as soon as they entered it. We use it to kill humans. The demons will think you are dead when you enter"
Kowaa. But if that's the case, we'll have to make a play.
"Huehuehue. You have a real magic sword, don't you? Now that you've heard all this, you'll cooperate with us, right?"
"Yes. How can I help you?"
"First, let me give you this"
Baba Yaga handed me a key. Let me appraise it.
Unlocking Wood Key: Important Item
A magic key that changes with the keyhole. You can unlock without the unlocking skill.
"What? This key? I want it so bad.
"With that key, you should be able to unlock Prince Finist's prison"
"What? Well, then, that's easy"
Arleigh...did this guy even listen to her earlier?
"You...you don't know how to get there"
"Ah...ri, right!"
"Huehue. You're right, girl. That's why you need to meet the other two Baba Yagas. Of course, you'll have to act like you did before"
That's where I come in.
"Emm, what's the item that will tell us where Prince Finist is and what's the other thing?"
"I'm sure they'll give you some clothes with an air-blocking effect so the demons won't find out about you"
Is that an invisibility cloak! I want this one too~.
"Then return to the village with return. You don't want me to chase you, do you?"
