Chapter 392.2
After returning to Cydale, I gave Kisara and Helme a rough rundown of the events. Kisara immediately called Rotalz over, and in the meantime, Helme returned into my left eye.
Muu watched all that happening while obviously bewildered.
I’ll entrust the babysitting of Muu to Lash-san who’s been trying to touch Iglued’s tree.
Lash-san adopted a triumphant pose by throwing her hands in the air.
Did she understand what I was thinking? What a strange ghost she is. Well, it’s just a joke anyhow.
“Quema, Solobo, I leave Muu in your hands. Also, don’t go to the village’s center, okay? Plus,put on your masks.”
“Count on me! I shall teach Muu my locking technique <Combat Grab>!”
“Very well. It is a shame that the thread user Muu has no interest in swordsmanship, but I shall abide by your order, Shuuya-dono.”
“Nn, nyaa.”
“Nyaoo.”
The two magically created tigers Hueremy and Alray meowed. I don’t think that they’re perceiving the orcs as fodder, but…
“You two also guard Muu. You’re also free to turn into statues as gatekeepers.”
“Nyaa.” “Nyao.”
The two transformed back into cats and moved to their favorite spot on the training ground, the trench created by Nemus. It was the preferred pastime of the Rollo Squad to squeeze themselves into that trench and nap in there.
『The cats appear to have taken a liking to that depression』
『Seems so』
Helme-chan pointed a finger after having appeared at the edge of my visual field.
“N, nya.” Rollo meowed while watching the other two cats leave.
Even though I I didn’t understand cat talk, I still got the meaning behind her meowing from the general flow of the conversation up until now.
And then I had the Burning Knights return into their ring, and entrusted Dee-san and Lily to Quiche who had been chatting with Gramps Ton. I also explained the situation with the Death Butterfly women to Red Tiger Storm, Moga, and Nemus who were near Quiche.
Since everyone basically confirmed to leave the village’s defenses to them, I left the village hall and loudly shouted, “Rollo!”
“Nn――”
Rollodeen, who had transformed into a Horse Lion, deployed her tentacles with the children cheering behind her. Her tentacles coiled themselves around Kisara, Rotalz, and me. In the meantime, Granny Bang continued to pray loudly, extolling Rollo as a divine beast, while letting her saliva fly.
『Granny Bang’s mystical force is quite something~ It looks like even the spirits are acknowledging it』
I ignored Helme’s telepathic comment, and acted before Rollo would retract her tentacle. I dashed towards her, jumped, and landed on her back. Kisara matched my actions to a tee.
Just what you’d expected of a Four Heavenly Witch.
She was straddling Rollodeen while clinging to me from behind. As such, I could feel the pressure of her boobs on my back.
The pressure and softness was irresistible! Her boobs immediately pepped me up. Thanks!
However, Rotalz…
“Uuuhh, why am I the only one to suffer such a treatmeeeent!”
Rotalz was dragged along rather than being carried.
“Sorry, Rotalz. You’re too huge. Anyway, Rollo, follow the scent. It’s right around the corner!”
“Hehe, Rotalz. If Golgonshura kicks up a fuss, you’re free to devour her,” cooed Kisara while wearing a classic nun’s garb.
It looks like she was badgered by Muu because her boobs’ swaying made it hard on Muu to focus on the spear training.
“For real!? Alright! I’m going to do my best!”
The fireball on Rotalz’s forehead grew bigger.
“Nyaoooooo,” roared Rollodeen, just to start dashing.
The instant her limbs demonstrated their mighty power, we immediately flew up right above the Sea of Trees. If Viine had been with us, I’m sure she’d have peed herself out of fear.
◇◇◇◇
We arrived at the Death Butterfly people’s territory, which also encompassed the special orchard of apple trees, in the blink of an eye.
Everyone was paying attention to the vicinity while casting glances at the two Death Butterfly women every now and then.
“I’m back.”
『Those are the infamous Death Butterfly women…』
『Helme, I’ve formed a covenant with them, so no need to worry about them. However, Golgonshura is different pair of shoes…』
I got off Rollodeen and walked up to my friends. Kisara and Rotalz followed me. Meanwhile Rollodeen transformed into her black panther form. After showing off something to Rotalz, Rollodeen came next to my side.
“Nn, welcome back.”
“That was quick…”
“Boss, our preparations over here are complete.”
“Those two are Death Butterfly people… I see they’ve also dropped items and weapons with tremendous amounts of mana,” commented Kisara from behind me.
“Ah, I’ll take care of those weapons.”
Noticing the treasures thanks to Kisara’s remark, Rebecca picked them up.
At the same time, I cast a look at Jody and Ciel, “Yo. So where’s that sealed gate of yours, you two?”
“Come, it’s this way.”
Jody was apparently going to lead us there.
“…”
Ciel revealed a sad expression when she saw Rebecca storing her scythe being stored away in Rebecca’s item box. But, once Jody started to run, Ciel shook her head and chased after brethren. We also followed the two women while chatting.
The destination proved to be surprisingly nearby. Of course it was still deeper down the ravine, but it wasn’t as though we had to go underground or anything.
However, the vicinity was filled with trees, or rather, blue flowers and a single, huge tree, to be precise. The tree’s shape resembled that of a butterfly, naturally you could say, I suppose. It had a color that seemed to be a combination of Judy and Ciel’s colors. The number of butterflies fluttering around it was abnormally high.
At the base of the tree was a door. A single, wide path continued from the root to the place we arrived at.
“Over there. It was close-by, right?”
“Your face shows that you hadn’t expected it.”
“Yeah,” I admitted.
After a short walk, we arrived at the sealed door.
“This is the sealed door that had a magic seal cast on it.”
It was an awfully simple door.
Jody and Ciel moved to both sides of the door, and said, “Spearmaster-sama! Please open this door! We beg you!”
“We beg you~!”
They went down on their knees and lowered their heads.
“Nn, strange. They look like they’re Shuuya’s new subordinates.”
“They formed a contract, so it’s not necessarily wrong to call them that, is it?”
My <Head Servant Leaders> remarked while their eyes dyed crimson red. But not because they were aroused. They were apparently both using their <Blood Mana>.
Eva deployed her usual floating weapon arsenal and also Sajiron’s globes. Rebecca, on the other hand, released flames from Guphon, creating a huge ring of fire around herself that also contained her own blue flames.
Kisara activated her <Magic Breath>, too.
Okay, I’ll get ready as well then.
Touching 《Dark Hell Bone Knight》, I summoned Zemetas and Adomos. Next I summoned Adombraly.
“Your Excellencyyy.”
“Your Excellencyyy, this is the hideout of the Death Butterfly people! There’s a similar place to be found in the Spirit World. We shall trample it down!”
“Milord, the Burning Knights’ heads are scary!”
I don’t want to hear that from a three-eye like you!”
“Oh, only the eye on the forehead has become smaller.”
“Nn, did it shrink because of Shuuya’s scolding?”
Exactly because it’s a Red Moon Puppet Soldier with three eyes, it looks somewhat surreal.
“Boss, I’m ready as well. However, this place got only one high spot – the tree with the sealed door.”
“Tsuan, just do what you can without trying the impossible.”
“Hey, Bucktooth. I’ll handle defense, so you focus on attacking from a distance,” ordered Rotalz with a haughty tone.
“…Roger.”
“Kisara, you’re going with defense too? I’ll become a wall, so handle the rest skillfully.”
“Yep, I got it covered.”
It sounds like that’s a special tactic of the Kisara-Rotalz-combi.
Still, this sealed door looks fairly old. It’s as imposing as the vault door which had sealed away Wild God Cazdolo. The door over here looks just as old or even older.
However, it contains a considerable amount of mana at one point in its center where a medal has been inserted. Small, depressed, silver lines are creating complicated thunder swirl patterns which are lining up horizontally and vertically.
“Partner, you ready?”
“Nn, nyaa,” Rollodeen replied while baring her glittering fangs.
“Very well, then I’ll open it in one go.”
I took Golgonshura’s Key out of my item box and inserted it into the door’s lock.
In the next moment, countless streaks raced across the wooden surface of the door from its depressed center. Thereupon, the door was divided in upper and lower part, opening.
“…Who…dazzling…the door, the door was opened!? Ciel, Jody? Are you there?” Golgonshura’s voice resounded from within.
And then a humanoid appeared through the now open door. No, it was a person with butterfly wings that sported a pretty contrast of black and blue on her back. She had long, delicate hair which was adorned with ornaments. Her eyes were pure white, and she had small lips and chin.
She moved her small head left and then right. A necklace with gems swayed beneath her neck.
She wore a sleeveless, girly dress with blue as the basic color. And on top a garment that was tinged with mana. Her boots with the attached ankle straps had an extremely high-class feel.
Isn’t that quite a beauty there…? Her fairy-like wings, the outfit, and her boots; all of it is nice! But, her eyes…
Does she possibly have no eyesight like Amelie?
『The color of her wings resembles my skin color, doesn’t it?』
『Now that you mention it』
“Golgonshura-samaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
“It’s Golgonshura-samaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
Jody and Ciel embraced Golgonshura.
“Those voices…Jody, Ciel? Did you possibly open the door?”
“Golgonshura-sama, your eyes…”
“…What, if I recover my mana…they’ll heal eventually,” answered Golgonshura, but then turned her face in my direction, apparently sensing my presence. “Did you form a covenant with these two?”
At that moment, Golgonshura’s expression went through a complete change. Many veins surfaced on her face out of rage, and mana overflowed from her entire body. And then she extended fingers towards the eyes of Jody and Ciel, scooping out their eyeballs.
“Kyaaaa.”
“Ugyaaaa.”
Ignoring their wailing, Golgonshura kicked both of them away.
“Of all things, you have sullied me with a covenant! Rejoice that I limited it to just your eyeballs!” Golgonshura screamed in anger, her voice loaded with mana.
Then she pushed the eyeballs, of which she had one gouged out of Jody and Ciel respectively, on top of her own white eyeballs as if to dissolve them into her own eyes. In the next instant, her eyes regained their light, now possessing butterfly marks as irises.
“Now then…you people whose mana I cannot measure, and especially you who arbitrarily bound my kin with a covenant.”
“What?”
I reflexively readied Baldok in response to the force behind her words. Removing the Wave Gourd, I extended my <Chains> to the sides a bit.
“…For the present I shall put your existence aside.”
“You put my lord aside? Want to eat my whip?”
“Cheeky three-eye. Hmm? A Spirit World dweller has a human as lord? Oh well, small fry should remain silent. Even if I cannot see your mana for some incomprehensible reason, you’re just frail mortals in the end, right?”
“Boss, this bitch…”
“It reminds me of the fierce battle at Highground. ――She exudes a presence surpassing the enemies of back then by far, though…”
Kisara moved to the left while preparing her witch spear and checking the combat distance.
“Nn, a goddess with a bad vibe?”
“Everyone, sorry, as expected, I’m…” Rebecca’s bad habit reared its head.
She wants to say that Golgonshura is a goddess of disease and disaster?
“Rebecca, don’t mind it. We’ll confirm the situation for a bit longer,” I appeased Rebecca.
In response, Golgonshura spoke up while chuckling, “…But, if the quality of mana is so trifling…gufufu, phhahahaha. I can’t sense any other gods in the vicinity either!! This time I’ll succeed for sure――”
Golgonshura had apparently snatched mana from Jody and Ciel, seeing how her mana had grown now. And then she summoned a wand in one of her hands, which still had the butterflies of Jody and Ciel stuck to it.
“――<Dimension Kizeleg>.”
――Ouch! My ears hurt.
Once a terrifying volume, combining voice and wand, thundered, a bright mana beam shot up into the sky from the wand. Golgonshura had apparently activated some kind of huge spell or skill
Everyone except for me held their ears. Rollodeen had also retreated while lowering her panther ears so as to block them.
I didn’t fall back, though. With Baldok in one hand, I kept slowly shortening the distance. Blood was streaming out my ears, but I didn’t give a damn.
“Hoh…even if it wasn’t a direct hit, you still endured after being exposed to my divinity? Just who are you!?”
“I’m a spearmaster, just as you can see.”
“Spearmaster, stay away from me. Rather than that, you might find it more interesting to look above. …Gufufufu.”
She has a beautiful face, but her laughter is really hard to stomach.
It wasn’t as though I was tempted by Golgonshura’s look, but I still faced the sky.
Eh?
The sky, or rather, a part of space has been torn?
Huge passenger planes, business jets, and fighter jets fell down through the tear. The passenger planes and business jets were smoking.
Had their engines been busted? But leaving that aside…airplanes!?
