Chapter 393
125. Princess of the Abyss
The day when the full moon rises.
The fact that, of course, that day was tonight made it even stronger as if they were aiming for this time.
Millefeuille said that the princess of the abyss called Uld would not immediately try to kill me because she judged that I was not a threat right now.
In fact, all she had ordered to Millefeuille was to get to know me briefly.
therefore.
“Either you’re strong enough to relax casually after hearing what you’ve done here.”
Or you’re an idiot who can’t even make that judgement.
It was my current thought to judge that it was close to the former in terms of probability.
Three grandmaster level phantom beasts that can shake the continent even if there is only one.
Considering the fact that she single-handedly subdued the three phantom beasts, who would have become stronger over time, and forcibly subordinated them, if the prerequisite is that her powers are intact.
“If we collide now, it would be a headache.”
Aside from her combat sense and realization of skills, my judgment was that her basic hardware specifications would be overwhelmingly disadvantageous.
I eventually accepted mille-feuille.
All she had to do was promise that she would never find out that she was a vampire and that she would never do anything wrong to the humans here.
If it’s not too late, I’ll take the ban.
She was a unique vampire who recovered quickly even after being cut by a blue tooth.
The ban or curse I place on her is bizarrely twisted due to the power of the Philosopher’s Stone, and it produces results that I can’t even guarantee.
There was a sense of regret in not accepting Millefeuille’s proposal and leaving it alone.
“But it is strange.”
Perserk did not easily let go of the hobby he developed after gaining a physical body.
“Why doesn’t that uld, the princess of the abyss, actively use her powers?”
Her question itself was the same as mine.
In fact, considering the level of the current continent, even I, who is judged to have a lot more hardware than her, can shake the entire continent casually.
If she puts her mind to it, she can shake the entire continent and achieve what she wants right away.
Why are you so silent?
It was also a mystery that has not yet been easily solved. The millefeuille vampire didn’t lie.
Whether it’s a lie or not, Perserk can’t be fooled.
In the end, I was able to find out from her that what she said was true to some extent, if not completely.
“I can only see that there are restrictions. Whether it’s a clever ploy or whatever, when you have hardware this overwhelming, there’s absolutely no reason to waste time right now.”
I don’t know how long she’s been here, but given that she’s at least somewhat aware of the currents of this world, I guessed that she’d spent a lot more time than I thought.
If that’s the case, after all, he’s been hiding himself for some reason even though he’s been here for quite a while.
“I think this kind of opponent is the most beggar. It’s not easy to figure out what’s going on in your head.”
I’d rather have a plan. Or did you just come out of nowhere?
All living things that move according to the flow of causality will show their intentions if they turn the cause and effect well.
However, if the opponent commits incomprehensible behavior irregularly, it is not easy to find out what the opponent is thinking right now, let alone a proper psychological warfare.
“It’s amazing that you spend days worrying about your partner’s behavior patterns.”
“I’m not mind-reading.”
It’s just a rough prediction. In a situation where there is no basic data, it is really dangerous to infer the opponent.
“Do? The full moon has already risen high up there. what do you do now If that Millefeuille vampire lied and diverted your attention...” “
It will be fine since Lynne is watching. It doesn’t feel much better than that.”
Having muttered that, I looked from the lord’s castle toward the academy.
As I gazed at the four strong spires surrounding the academy, there was a sense of silence.
Still, the lord’s castle had a fairly lively atmosphere, but strangely, today’s lord’s castle was so quiet that even the sound of insects could be clearly heard.
It was a moment of silence for a while in a strange atmosphere.
“Something is strange.”
Feeling the strange atmosphere and subtle coolness piercing my skin, I woke up to this intuition that visited me fiercely as if it had been a long time.
that something is strange
However, if you analyze it coldly, there is nothing very strange.
It is not difficult to find a mercenary, wanderer, treasure hunter or merchant lost in the forest. In fact, there are quite a few cases like this.
“Of course. Please help Catherine.”
Elia, who had fallen in love to the bone, reached out to her as if she had reached out to help, as if she did not feel such a sense of incongruity.
“Hoho, thank you so much.”
She approached me with a graceful smile, and smiled brightly.
“But it’s getting late, so it’s hard to go any deeper.”
“...”
At the woman’s words, Catherine quickly pondered.
As she said, it was not a wise decision to go further into the forest as it was now getting dark.
The escort troops had to rest, and the road was dark, so there was no way to know where the wagon would overturn.
Even using glowstone would not be of any benefit in the long run in such a dark forest.
“I happen to know of a good place to camp around here. Would you like to go there?”
At her words, Aria was visibly pleased.
“Really? I would really appreciate it if you could guide me.”
“no. She seems to be a noble lady of quite high rank, so I’m really grateful that she listens to the words of a lower-class person like me.”
The woman who said so guided people, saying that it was not far away.
“grandee? Why?”
At the question of Lord Bellos, who rode the horse instead of the coachman, Catherine shook her head.
“Just...”
Should I say it’s an animal sense of crisis? There is something hard to explain.
He even doubted why he was wary of that single wanderer with nothing.
Afterwards, the wagon that entered the forest under the guidance of a woman soon found a perfect place to camp.
The place lit up by the moonlight of Krias floating in the night sky was to the point where I felt that the surroundings were somewhat bright thanks to the night myeongcho.
“There is a stream nearby. You can go to Heinz Manor when the day is bright, so it seems appropriate to camp here.”
At the words of Sword Master Sir Velos, Aria clapped her hands and liked it.
“I see. Everyone must be tired, so you need to rest as comfortably as possible.”
At her words, Bellos smiled as if he were looking at his cute granddaughter.
“Hehe, even though this old man is old, he is still correct. Degrading the princess.”
“No. You promised to stay by my side for a long, long time. Lord Bellos.”
“This is a place I found after getting lost and wandering around here. I was just lucky. Have you eaten?”
The eyes of the knights gathered at her speaking while turning over the hood of the wizard robe she was wearing.
With her long black hair hanging down, she was certainly a stunningly attractive and beautiful woman.
“I just finished eating.”
“Oh is it? In fact, I’ve been wandering through the woods for days and haven’t had anything to eat...”
she said, rubbing her hungry belly gently.
“Oh my, that can’t be. Sir Rita. Could you give him something to eat in the carriage?”
Hearing those words, the knight quickly ran and took out several small pieces of beef jerky and held them out to her.
“Eat.”
“Oh, thank you. It’s beef jerky that looks delicious.”
Catherine, who had been watching him fiddling with the beef jerky with a bright smile, slowly rose from her seat.
“By the way... I’m a bit peculiar, so I need to eat something other than beef jerky.”
“Get down!!!!!”
Quaang!!!
Realizing something at the same time, she screamed as if screaming.
Before the words could be finished, there was a flash of red light.
All that was left was the smell of blood that pierced his nostrils to the point of misery.
