432 430 Consequences of the raid

"Phew..."

"You won."

Fran, who has disavowed the sword deification, restores the Count on one knee. Apparently, in disgrace, he watched the scene in which Fran defeated the Raiders. Instead, he said that seeing that sight made his consciousness too surprised to be clear for a moment.

Shortly after he recovers, he stops by Fran. However, that face did not have the kind of colour to question, it seemed to have pure praise and surprise.

"Whoa, whoa! What was that... what was that?

"Hmm?"

"I don't know what happened, but I know something awesome happened!

Apparently, thanks to the Count's obscurity, he has never used sword deification.

"That's Princess Black Thunder...... His Majesty the Beast King only likes you. No, it's better than that now."

"Mm!"

Block the Count's words and Fran will set me up.

"Here we go again!

There were still signs of combat inside the mansion. The sound of a broken windowsill or an explosion caused by sorcery echoes.

――

"Count, step back"

"I can fight too! Goddamn it, everyone's safe!

Ten minutes later.

He had repelled the attacking raiders twice and was finally on his way to rescue elsewhere. The aftermath of sword deification has reduced your combat power, but you managed to win because you had one opponent and this one was two.

"This room!

"Mmm."

It was in Bermelia's room that the two headed. There's no sign of battle from inside, but there's no sign of the Bermelians.

"Are you all right!

"Huh! Frederick"

The room was a terrible misery. The remains of beds and bookshelves are scattered and deep scars are worn on the walls and ceilings. There are two bodies of raiders among them. And Frederick is down.

A tremendous amount of blood was flowing from its body, and one sword was stabbed in its belly and back. The sword is falling down in a slightly distorted outfit with its side facing due to its intrusion.

"Greater Heels!"

"A little, be patient"

He wasn't critically dead. Recovery magic worked for me. Fran hurries closer to Frederick and pulls the sword out of his body at once. Oh, this is just a sword. It is not a pseudo-fanatical sword.

"Huh!

Frederick is awakened by the severe pain of being plucked out of his sword, but if this remains stabbed, it will recover and be painful. Forgive me here. Although I can't deny that Fran was a bit abusive.

We did more healing magic and succeeded in rescuing Frederick. But Frederick, who should be losing blood and losing strength, is forced to stand up and head for the window.

"No, rest."

"Bermelia...! They got me!

"What! What are you talking about!

"With me on, there's no more."

How dare one of the raiders take Bermelia's consciousness and say he escaped through the window. I thought their purpose was Count Baileys' life, but they weren't? No, and you failed, so you switched purposes? Anyway, it was over 10 minutes ago that Bermelia was taken away, and it seemed difficult to follow.

'If Ursi returns... No, if you're a wolf in the first place, you might notice. Let's wait for it.'

"... n"

Chasing the dark clouds doesn't make me think I can catch up. Besides, there are still enemies left.

"... first eliminate the enemy soldiers in the mansion"

"My lord! but......"

"For one daughter, you can't kill her!

"Damn! Like I used to...!

30 minutes after saving Frederick's life.

He had managed to defeat the raiders while causing great damage to the soldiers in the mansion.

A total of 25 raiders. The damage on the Count's side was more than 40 when servants and others could also be combined. There will be about 15 injured. Not a single human being is safe. Apparently, the first sorcery burned the stuffing of soldiers that was next to the mansion was also the reason for the increased damage.

Some of the injured also have Corbelt in them. He, too, was on the verge of dying, but he could take his life. I would have lost my left leg a little later. I'm glad I got the treatment in time.

"... I need to work out some normal martial arts..."

It's amazing because Demitris is burying three people on his own while his quintessential martial arts are sealed by the effects of a pseudo-fanatical sword. Corberto is going to regret it. He saw how his colleagues had changed and made that thought even stronger. Eating up teeth, enduring passion.

"... such imitation, where who..."

"Too many thoughts..."

The most suspicious is Marquis Ashtoner, but there is no evidence. I think I should just keep beating him up, but he's more than moving soldiers in the king's city. I'm sorry for the vague evidence. If I make the area Yuruyul, it will be easier for me to rebel.

When Frederick and Corbert examined several people, they found that they were being given massive amounts of exorcisms, just like Hamrus and Gordon.

In addition to the effect of making the human spirit consumed expensive and depriving him of his ability to think, they also have the effect of making it easier to hang magic allusions and the like. Therefore, it seems to be very useful for brainwashing using witchcraft, etc.

"This guy..."

Corberto, who was checking the body of the fifth raider, accidentally leaned his neck. And stare at the raider's face. Fran took it down first, you're a swordsman.

"What's going on?

"Miss Fran, don't you recognize this guy?

"Mm-hmm. I knocked him down"

"No, it's not... it is! This guy's an adventurer!

Apparently he is a man who was a Rank C adventurer. So you were manipulating a high-ranking adventurer? There were several other adventurers who Corberto looked familiar to. Colbert just remembers, and they're all rank C, rank B prowess.

The corbelt is also twisting its neck in front of the mysterious sword that was stabbing the raider.

"What the hell is this sword... Does Frederick look familiar?

"There is. There will be francs too, won't there?

"Mmm."

"It's that demon sword that attacked the inn. You'll never get the wrong look at this bad taste handcover."

Explain to Colbert the similarities between the Devil's Sword because Frederick thought he was manipulating Gordon and the Devil's Sword that was stabbing the Raiders this time.

"So you're saying that this demon sword itself was willing and manipulating these guys?

"It's possible... The demon sword I saw in the inn was half broken, so it was hard to tell, but I think it was a long sword. Besides, they were normally equipped with their hands there, and they were moving freely."

"You mean the sword that moves on its own? This sword has no sign of movement, though?

"I guess that means it's not exactly the same thing. It's much weaker to feel."

Talking about that, there were signs of Ursi coming back to the mansion. Now we'll be able to follow Bermelia's whereabouts.

"Ursi, I'm back"

"Right!

It was not the Earl of Baileys, but Frederick, who first shouted his praise when he heard the words.
