Chapter 503 – Smell and Track

000

Soon after, when Cleon and Riomes come out of her room, Lila and Sasha narrow their eyes as they see her blushing and stroking her belly.

“…Sasha, why do you have a clothespin on your nose?”

“…There’s a reason for that…”

When Cleon tilts her head at Sasha, who answers with a slightly tired expression, Tamamo urges Cleon to speak.

“So! Didn’t you just make a baby inside and come out?!”

“Hey, baby!?”

Amelia raises her voice in response.

Soon after, when Cleon showed her the gold amulet she was holding in her hand her-and the purple engraving on it-Tamamo clapped her hands as if she had done well.

“Good good! You did a good job. With that amulet, you’ll be able to save the demons. Then, girl from the academy. Explain the strategy to this guy.”

“Ha ha. I can’t help it.”

There were many things I wanted to discuss, but first, as Tamamo said, it would be better to clearly tell Cleon what to do.

After talking about setting fire to the brothel and the relationship between Tamamo and Lesia, Cleon’s expression seemed a bit shaky.

“It’s a daring operation.”

“Isn’t it? I think so too.”

At Tamamo’s attitude her, which seemed to take Cleon’s words her as a compliment, Cleon sighed and shook her head.

“I guess you can’t cancel the spell.”

“Well. That’s right. It was created hundreds of years ago. It’s the technology of the ghosts of the time. It’s lost now.”

“What are you yohos losing so much…”

When Layla talks like she’s tackling her, Tamamo just laughs it off like she has no face.

“Because they are basic hedonists, they focus on living in the present. Rather than paying attention to the literature or history of the past.”

“Well. I’m not denying that stance. So- you’re saying that we just have to solve the problem of the runaway spirits before lighting the fire?”

At Cleon’s question, Tamamo takes her amulet and flutters it in her hand.

“Yes, that’s right. If you’re going to track down the ghosts, leave it to the ‘girl possessed by the beast god’ over there.”

When Cleon, who immediately recognized that it was referring to Sasha, looked at her, Sasha nodded her head.

“Now my nose and lungs are filled with the distinctive smell of Yoho people… If I borrow Ruben-sama’s sense of smell, it will be easier to chase them.”

“I see… But, if it’s tracking, shouldn’t it be possible to use the hunter’s mark…?”

“…Uh?”

When Cleon said that, Sasha opened her mouth for a moment and put on a dazed expression.

“——No! Yes, you’ve worked hard, Sasha. I’ll ask you!”

“Yeah, yeah. It’s not good to rely on imprinting for anything. Yes.”

“I-I believe in Sasha too!”

Cleon, Layla, and Amelia, who read her quick mood her, voiced encouragement to her, but Tamamo blinked her eyes while watching it.

“Anyway… The yoho with this talisman can control its body condition to a certain extent, just as it does with other imprints. You can use it to remove the ‘poison’ from your body and stop running rampant.”

“In order to control the imprint, I need to be in touch with the body. …Anyway, I’ll need to attach an amulet and restrain it for a while.”

“Don’t worry if it’s a restraint! You can pierce the blood and paralyze the body!”

Whoops, Riomes smiles and moves his arms as if making waves with his fingers his.

Seeing that, Layla nodded her head.

“I can use binding magic, and Sasha can too. I don’t think there’s any problem with that part. I don’t know how much the fairies can fight.”

“The runaway Yohos are mostly young guys. Even magic that can be used properly is more focused on seduction and ‘serving guests’ than combat. Because my name is a bit dangerous…”

She scratches her head as she says so.

“Dangerous guy?”

“Yes… It’s a child called ‘Kuzunoha’. He’s as young as the other runaway yohos… But he’s talented. He’s a genius who taught himself dozens of spells by himself.”

“…That kind of guy is running rampant… It’s a headache.”

When Lila nodded, placing her hand on her forehead and raising her voice, Tamamo nodded in agreement.

“Because he was a child who was greedy for knowledge and power … If he continues to take medicine like this, his tail his might continue to grow. If that happens, his hands his will become useless. Find him as soon as possible and save him.”

“I’ll try.”

Cleon looks out the door as he nods.

When she confirmed that the sun was slowly starting to set, she looked at Tamamo and asked a question.

“Do the demons only appear at night?”

“Yes. It’s because it’s targeting men with affection. It will move after the smell of men’s spirits.”

“Then you’d better wait a little longer.”

Laila stretched her legs out in the knowledge that she could rest a little longer, and Sasha thought about something of hers for a bit before carefully raising her hand.

“Hey… If that’s the case, wouldn’t most Yohos aim for Mr. Cleon at night?”

“…”

Tamamo widens her eyes at Sasha’s words her.

And Rio Mess nodded her head, saying ‘Ah-‘ and as if he was sure of it.

“If demon spirits can follow the smell of spirit – the presence. Of course they will be attracted to the strongest scent…”

“Ohhh! That’s definitely true! That’s right. It’s just that you can’t feel it because you can use magic to transform your body. If you release the transformation, the demons will come looking for Cleon!’

Tamamo was also caught by Sasha’s words her! She makes the same expression, but Sasha’s face when she says it just gets harder and harder.

“As expected, Sasha…! A hunter’s power of observation and ideas!”

Lila, who sincerely praises you.

“Even though I’m still young, the future is bright~”

Riomes is looking forward to Sasha’s growth her.

“Sasha. Let’s protect Cleon together!”

Amelia hardens her resolve.

But Sasha raises her head without her words her, and she talks as she slowly removes her clothespin from her nose.

“…As expected, there was no need for smelly hell~!!!”

001

The brothel where the veil of night has completely descended –

However. Unlike the streets and back alleys of the royal road, the brothels shine brightly at night as if the light from the sky had come down to the ground.

Lanterns shining in various colors, and the voices of demi-humans trying to attract guests.

Even today, men who put all their energy into the brothel by passing through the gate with the money they saved, wander the streets looking for a woman they like.

However, there is a ‘dark’ part even in such brothels.

Even the light of the moon shining brightly in the sky does not properly reach the street, not the place where shops are gathered, but the accommodations of brothel employees.

Because everyone went out to work, there was not even a single light leaking from the room.

Tumble, Tumble. The sound of footsteps echoed.

Could it be that she came all the way here without realizing it, fascinated by the light that seduces men?

You won’t find what you’re looking for here, but if you carelessly venture into the dark-

“…It’s probably no different from asking to eat it.”

Licking her lips with her tongue, she emerged from her alleyway.

Almost all of the sexy clothes worn by the children of the Eastern countries were worn, to the point where important parts were exposed.

Various feminine parts that sway with every step.

And a ‘tail’ of lush hair that rose from the back of her buttocks. Two.

In an instant, she tried to reach the man as the ‘enchantment of enchantment’ spread out from her suspiciously sparkling bewitching eyes of her.

Papabak! Then, an arrow fell somewhere and surrounded her feet her, making three points.

“A foot-binding shower!”

When the ignition key that activates the stored magic power resounds, a binding line of magic linking the arrows is created, trapping Yoho within it.

“Kh, huh!? What, what is this…!? I can’t move…! Who the hell…!”

Yoho panics, but he struggles, knowing that he cannot fall from there.

The next moment, she’s ‘hot’ and she looks at the man she was meant to target.

He was glaring at himself with the ‘golden amulet’in his hand.

“That, that talisman, that ‘elder’-sama’s…!?”

“Mr. Cleon!”

“Ah!”

In a situation where Yoho could not escape, he confirmed that the male Cleon was running towards him and shrank his body.

However, Cleon, with the talisman Tamamo gave him on his palm his, vigorously ‘slaps’ at Yoho’s forehead and strikes it down.

“It hurts!?”

Unknowingly, as tears flow, a whining sound comes from his mouth his-but it opens from Cleon’s mouth.

“Moment Domination…!”

Just like Sasha, the moment I put the short ignition key in my mouth, the stamp of dominance drawn on the golden amulet flashes purple.

“Body access… Check nervous system… Toxin found… Toxin release… Removal-. Nervous system recovery. Soul healing spell imprint.”

“Aww. I’m sorry…”

Yo-ho faints with her eyes rolled back while shivering.

The inside of her body was manipulated by Cleon, but thanks to this, the mixed poison was able to escape from her body.

“Okay…! This is the 4th person.”

As Cleon received the stunned Yoho in his arms her, he let out a sigh of relief when he saw her tail her reconciled with light and disappeared.

“That’s not a bad pace. Instructor!”

And when the people who were hiding and watching it came out, Cleon nodded his head.

To Riomes, who was the first to come out and approached, Cleon carefully lifted up the yoho he had just purified and handed it to him.

“Take them to Tamamo.”

“Leave it to me. I’ll be right back!”

As if lifting a light pillow, Riomes accepted Yoho’s body and jumped up, crossing the roof of the building and leaving.

“Yes, as Sasha said. When Cleon is alone, she will come from Yoho’s side.”

“Really. Thanks to you, you don’t have to go looking for it yourself.”

When Layla and Amelia talk like that, Sasha can’t shake the hype.

“But it was good Sasha. The timing of her restraints of her was perfect, and she shot three ‘simultaneously’ with a howitzer. She’s getting better and better.”

“Go, thank you…”

Even though she is depressed, Sasha scratches her cheek while laughing, as if Cleon’s praise her is happy.

“How many more do we need to do?”

“I said nine people, so five more. Among them, I don’t know when ‘Kuzunoha’ will come out…”

“Half way now… Half an hour is not a bad pace.”

Lyla nodded at Cleon’s words her.

“Okay. Then let’s hide so another guy can come. It’s my turn next.

Two people who alternately act as restraints.

As if it were a competition, he was researching a way to more effectively restrain the ghosts.

Amelia also had an expression that she wanted to do something.

“Amelia prepares to come out as the front line in case something happens. Okay?”

At Lila’s advice, she nods her head as if she understands.

Then, the three leave Cleon once again and hide in the shadows of the alley.

Cleon also casts a perception-degrading spell on himself, so that his face and appearance his are not properly visible from a little distance.

And when I walk quietly down the alley again –

Less than 5 minutes later, I felt ‘pretending to be popular’ again.

“Whoa… The terrible ‘smell of spirit’… I managed to come all the way here alone. Oppa.”

When he heard the voice, Cleon squinted his eyes and spread a magic barrier over his ear her.

This voice- it was because I could instinctively feel that it was dangerous to continue listening to it.

Perhaps, the voice also contains phantom magic.

And the one who appeared in front of Cleon under the shadow of the moon was a woman with a slightly different atmosphere from the other ghosts.

Silver hair, golden eyes.

Red makeup painted around the eyes and exposed clothes that started from the bottom of the shoulders.

And- the most eye-catching thing is the tail growing behind her-

‘Four…’

The number of tails visible to Cleon is four.

Considering that all the guys she’d caught so far were ‘two’, she had twice as many.

‘Then… Is she Kuzunoha?’

Certainly, it was understandable for Tamamo to be wary of him.

“Whoa. What are you thinking? A scary face…”

She sighs and breathes sweetly.

If it had been virginity that stood before her, she would have knelt down on her on the spot and ‘begged her to eat herself’.

When Cleon doesn’t show that mood, Kuzunoha smiles at her and pulls her own clothes down even more.

As the upper part of her breasts are revealed larger-though her areolas are barely visible.

Cleon kept her gaze fixed on her and stepped forward as if signaling her.

Then-

“Infernal Chain!”

As promised, Layla’s voice rang out and blazing flames emerged from her air and flew toward Kuzunoha.

“Magic!?”

Raising her voice upon seeing the magic, Kuzunoha quickly jumped behind her and swung her hand at her.

Then, a blue flame appeared and shook Layla’s chains.

“Shit!”

When Lila’s curse sounds, Sasha shoots her arrow next.

She blocked even that, with her own incantations of her, then looked down at her hands her and then moved her gaze to Cleon.

“…I’m surprised! I never thought it was a stranger who came to catch me!”

“…Be polite and spit out the poison in your body.”

“I don’t like that… Couldn’t you extend the tail to 9 and then postpone it?”

At her words, Cleon thinks of what he heard from Tamamo.

‘A Yoho with nine tails transcends the species called Yoho. Beast – no, to become a part of the Beast God. As much as that. You absolutely have to stop it.’

“I’m sorry. I can’t do that.”

“…Chi-it!”

Kuzunoha clicked her tongue like that and then-

Cut off her own little finger her.

“What!”

Cleon was momentarily taken aback by her behavior her, and her movement her stopped, and her little finger her swelled up on the spot-

It turned into a huge monster that stood in the way between Cleon and her.

“Kuh…! Was it a waste of time…!”

Cleon pours magic all at once and succeeds in eliminating that monster.

After her finger monster disappeared, Kuzunoha had already disappeared.

“Cleon-san! Are you okay!?”

“Ah, it’s okay. …He’s a quicker judge than that. …He noticed my presence, so he won’t come back… What should I do?”

When Cleon talks like that, both Layla and Amelia seem to think ‘Oh no…’.

But, Sasha-

“… Sniff… Sniff…”

And rang her nose-

“…You can chase it by smell! If you use the mark, it will be discovered because of the magic reaction, but… You don’t have to use the mark!”

“…Really!?”

Cleon looks back at Sasha, widening her eyes at her words her.

“…Yes. Probably, thanks to Tamamo-sama, I remembered the smell…”

“Then it was a ‘necessary action’, Sasha.”

When Ryla also talked to Sasha while nodding her head, Sasha also looked a bit bewildered…

“That. That’s right! Then I will guide you, so please follow me!”

As she said that, she ran out through the streets of the brothel.

After a while-

“I’m back, instructor…? Huh? Where did everyone go?”

Only Riomes, who had returned from work, was left there.
