Chapter 321: The New Evil

Chapter 321: The New Evil

“Now then, our strength should be about recovered. Shall we get moving?”

“Nn. Will go to the detachment force.”

“I agree that they shouldn’t be left alone, but wouldn’t it be better to check out where the monsters appeared to the north?”

But Fran shook her head.

“Will do later. Everyone’s safety is first.”

“Fumu. Then we’ll deal with the detachment first.”

“Then, please wait a moment.”

Kuina stores the table in her skirt like some sort of magic trick. If the skill is similar to Dimensional Storage, shouldn’t she be able to store it on the spot?

“Why do you go through the trouble of putting it up your skirt?”

“As a maid, it’s a matter of taste.”

I don’t get it. But I do know there’s something weird about that.

“Shall we get going? Come, Linde!”

“KUOOOOOOOO!”

“If it’s at your current strength, you should be able to carry 3 people!”

“KUO!”

If we ride on Linde’s back, who is capable of moving at high speeds, we should be able to cover a lot of ground quickly.

“The battle is over, isn’t he acting kind of weir- !?!”

Even if she isn’t yelling, I’m still on edge. It seems like the encounter with the Beast King gave her resistance to fearing the strong, the cat girl in front of us is on a whole different level compared to him.

“Ohoho. My name is Murellia! You didn’t know?”

“Nn, knew.”

“Oh? Is that so?”

As Fran says so, Murellia smiles happily. Murellia was the name of the master named by Valkyrie! Is this her? I tried appraising her, but didn’t receive a result.

“Ufufu. Isn’t that a bit rude? Could you stop trying to Appraise me? It’s no use~”

Damn, she has Appraisal Detection and Appraisal Block at a level that invalidates my Eye of Empyrea? Really, who is this girl?

“I wonder where you heard my name from~?”

“Heard from Valkyrie.”

“Ah... so that was it.”

Apparently, Fran’s answer wasn’t the one she wanted. She was clearly disappointed. However, Mare seemed astonished and stared at Murelia.

“Murellia the black catkin??”

“Oh? Has that young lady over there heard of me?”

“Are you telling the truth?”

“Well now, I suppose that depends on which Murellia you’re talking about~”

“ ... the princess obsessed with the Evil God.”

“ Bingo!”

“Mare, who?”

There’s no other asshole it could be. When I heard Mera’s explanation, I knew beyond a doubt.

“She’s the one that caused the black catkin tribe to be punished by the gods 500 years ago.”
