Chapter 104 – The Wizard’s Tale (11)

“Ugh… Mmm, the head…”
“Are you awake?”
“Everyone, you guys… What the hell is this place… “
“He fell among the monsters, so I moved him here and treated him. What is your name?”
“I, I…Oh, Orma…Ugh…”
“Why are you here?”
“Ugh… I, I… I was… Ostrich… I was about to drag the ostriches to the arena…”
As expected, Ostrich Man had his memory his blown away. Well, he wouldn’t be able to help this guy even if in fact he didn’t fly. He won’t be able to go anywhere and talk about what happened to him?
“Lenny. Let it sleep.”
“Yes…”
When Lenny used Relax, Ostrich Man began to stretch again. The word is relaxation, it does not end with relaxing his body his, but puts him to sleep. Didn’t you name it wrong? Yuri wondered if it wasn’t just me who thought that way.
“But why do I fall asleep while using Relax? By what principle?”
“Ah, that, that… Just… If you pour in the divine power for a short period of time… “
“Hehe…”
…Afraid. The saintess’ output teeth.
“Is this okay?”
Lenny is looked at by the Ostrich Man who has fallen asleep. He’s the one who tried to attack us. Does he care? It’s because he’s the perfect type to be loved. Well, if it wasn’t for that, maybe I wouldn’t have been tinkering with it like that.
When such a Hogu priest has sex, it’s a mess…
“Mr. Eugene?”
“…It’s okay. Because this is a beginner zone. Well, at best, a rabbit will eat it.”
So we left the dungeon, leaving the snoring Orma alone.
#
“Oh. Are you dying already today?”
“Yes. I have something else to see.”
Rize looked puzzled, but she didn’t ask any further. Come to think of it, it’s always been that way. Do you feel like you don’t want to know unnecessary information beyond business? Are you thorough in learning and living? For something like that, it appeals more sexy than necessary…
“Have you been to the witch?”
“Ah, that… “
“You’d better go there as soon as possible. Opportunities like that are rare.”
“All right.”
So we parted ways with Rize and headed to Ariel’s mansion.
“But since there was such a fuss inside the dungeon, is it okay to go outside?”
Yuri said while covering her body with both hands as if she was a little scared.
“If it’s a mansion, even that person won’t be able to spread his magic her. If he messes up to that point, he’s supposed to break the contract.”
“Hmm… Then wouldn’t it be fine if we met at the mansion from the beginning? Why did you ask to meet in a dungeon… Ugh. What?!”
Yuri glared at me while covering the side I stabbed. I tugged at the ear and whispered quickly.
‘Are you clueless! He doesn’t look like he has any money! If you’re like me, living in a spider’s web, would you want to invite people over!’
‘Ah, is that so…?’
“…It’s not that unmanageable.”
“Ugh, Mi, I’m sorry.”
Kek, this guy has good ears. I can’t even whisper now.
He Arrived at Ariel’s mansion while having such a pitiful joke.
The structure of the mansion itself was large and splendid looking. It’s just that it’s not managed. There are rusty structures here and there, weeds growing on the stone road leading to the front door, and the shadows of the garden trees that make the mansion even more dreary…
The two of them walked holding onto the hem of my clothes as if they were a little dazed.
“Yu, I think even a ghost will pop out.”
“I-I will… “
“…You guys are not afraid of the undead, but are you afraid of ghosts?”
“Surely scary! If you hit the undead, they die, but don’t ghosts die?”
I’m much more terrified of the existence of monsters. Carnivorous rabbits are also scary.
“Hehe! Bar, there was a virgin ghost in white at the window just now!”
“Hey?!”
“…A ghost. Isn’t it rude in many ways to a house where people live?”
“Mi, I’m sorry.”
I had no choice but to apologize over and over again on behalf of the two idiots.
“No, over there, over there?!”
However, in the window the glass pointed to, there was something like a white cloth waving…
“You stupid. That window is maintained. Clean and without vines. It is a room where people live.”
“…My, am I stupid?! How could you say that to me?!”
The entrance of the mansion arrived before I knew it while making a pitiful noise. When we opened the front door, a butler dressed in black greeted us.
“Oh, Ariel. Are you back?”
“Well.”
The butler had a slim body and seemed a little taller than Yuri. A beauty with sharp eyes and a sharp impression. Her black-brown hair was tied up, giving off the impression of a career woman.
“Who are these people?”
“This is my guest. Fellow adventurers.”
“A colleague…”
The butler pricked up her ears as if wondering. …Ear? No, this woman has her ears on top of her head?! Are you a count?
She passed by the boulevard and saw a beast with a cat’s head, but this woman was usually seen only as a human wearing her headband with her ears. Wait, so what about the tail?!
“Ugh.”
“Yu, Yujin! People, uh, ass… Uh, it’s rude to look at it that way!”
No, the reason I looked at that girl’s ass was to check if the number of dogs was right! If the number of dogs is correct, it might be someone I know! And you’re rude to the subject who made a fuss about seeing a house where people live and saying that a ghost lives there!
“What about Niel?”
“He is getting up.”
“Tell him that he will be visiting soon. We will be in the parlor.”
“All right.”
Ariel ushered us into the parlor while we chatted silly.
“Sit as you please. It’s embarrassing to have guests in a shabby place.”
“How shabby…”
Contrary to its appearance, the inside of the mansion was quite clean. The furniture is a bit old, but overall it looks luxurious. It’s a little hedged, but it looks like it’s going to stretch out if you’re not careful, and a fluffy sofa and a neat table with no dust visible.
“Wow…”
If I wasn’t the only one curious, the two were looking around here and there.
…They don’t look like much because they’re doing that. I need to calm down too.
“I don’t think the word shabby is appropriate. I don’t have much knowledge, so it’s hard to say anything, but I think it’s hard to find a well-maintained mansion like this.”
It was just like that. The mansion I saw was about the gold-plucked house of the rich man in the drama, but this place was a place where the word “Old-fashioned” Could be positively described.
“… Thank you. Rebecca will be delighted.”
“Rebecca?”
“Haven’t you seen it before? I am working hard alone.”
Rebecca… Rebecca…
“…!”
Okay. I remembered. Fuck! That woman was Rebecca!

Rebecca.
I don’t know the last name. Like Ariel, an assassin who appears from the north.
When Ariel went on a rampage with Naias, of course her supervisors her didn’t just sit back and wait for the warriors.
Having a territory in the north, the nobles used soldiers and mercenaries to form their own subjugation party. But even before they dealt with Naias, they were all destroyed by an assassin.
It wasn’t that the assassin killed all of the punitive forces. It was just hiding in the middle of the night and poisoning the food, or assassinating the mercenary commander or the commander of the aristocratic family.
In the end, the assassin was captured by a group of warriors who came later and was interrogated by the public authorities to find out whereabouts of Naias, but the only thing they found out was the name Rebecca.
I was wondering why an assassin appeared out of nowhere while subjugating the spirits, and it seemed that this elf was the owner.
Yes, I admit my loyalty, but an assassin!
Scared! Fuck!
“Why are you leaving your body like that?”
“Oh, no, nothing.”
-Smart.
“Come in.”
Ariel gave permission and Rebecca pulled out. A teacup placed in front of us… And Rebecca pouring tea with an expressionless face… Scared! Shit, looking at it now, those eyes that look chic aren’t those eyes of a killer?
After Rebecca served everyone a cup of tea, she stood in the seat behind Ariel and looked… Down at us. It’s like having a quick cup of tea.
The teacup placed in front of me was somehow ominous in color. It’s purple, isn’t this poison?!
“Oh, it’s the northern ilac.”
“Sleep…!”
Lenny is drinking tea before I have time to say anything. A happy smile hangs over his face. Now that face will soon be in terrible pain…!
“Mr. Eugene? Why?”
“… No, nothing.”
Lenny was fine. I feel like I’m doing something stupid. You shouldn’t have bottomless prejudice that you are an assassin. Even I am the master’s guest. Although those eyes are quite burdensome.
After drinking a little bit of tea like that. Ariel opened her mouth.
“Okay. I decided to tell him why I owed him.”
“Ariel-sama?!”
An iron-blooded assassin who was momentarily taken aback.
“Okay. For causing trouble to these people in many ways. And now it’s not even such a secret story.”
“…”
Ariel started talking to Rebecca like that.
