Chapter 220 – Morbius (4)

Arriving in front of the magic tower, we started looking for accommodation. The party, consisting of two women, one man, and one coffin, drew attention. The employee pointed to the coffin and said.

“Ah, guest. There is no room in our inn to store corpses. I’m sorry, but go to the storage room ahead of you…”

Before he could finish his words, the coffin was opened.

“Alive.”

As Taffy stepped out of the coffin, raising her hand, the staff screamed.

“Ahh! Chew!”

Me and Milia laughed, twitching her lips, and Petunia Titti munching her lips, trying to contain her laughter. The clerk grabbed his chest, took a breath, and laughed along with us.

“Ah, you were in a group. I was surprised. I thought you were some kind of vampire or something.”

Haha.”

I smiled and nodded, and the staff led us through the room with a few more hilarious jokes. The spacious room had three beds. Taffy and I decided to sleep in one large bed, and Millie and Petunia Titti each decided to share a different bed.

“The magic tower is huge.”

Between the mage tower and the village there was a wide forest and plain. However, despite the rugged hills and towering trees, the magic tower was looking down at us, standing up as high as an index finger. Milia nodded her head at my words and said:

“It’s a place like that, so it’s hard to find where the security room is. It would be nice if I could quickly control the elevator and go up.”

“Me. Can’t I go in?”

Taffy asked, pulling at the hem of my dress. Millia shook her head first, and she said:

“You can do that if you want, but… You don’t know what security devices are inside, and you don’t know how far you have to go up. I wonder if it would be right to go up after roughly specifying the location of the security room? We literally know nothing about that tower.”

I said looking up at the tower.

“Can’t we fly? Fly to the top floor, gather your mana all at once, and then blow him away.”

“Oh my, tell me to do both flight and shield?”

Milia pretended to be frightened, and she said so. As I look at her taffy, taffy shrugs her shoulders too.

“Good way. I don’t think so.”

Actually, even if I did, it didn’t feel like a very good way. I heard that the magic tower is very sensitive to air intruders. Petunia Titti shook her head and said.

“It is a place where even if a bird flies in, it is shot and killed right away. Going into the air is not recommended.”

“Then can I have no choice but to wait?”

Milia shrugged her shoulders and Taffy started playing by rolling the ornaments in her quarters. Petunia Titi brushed her hair and looked at us, she said.

“Or there are other ways.”

Our gaze returned to Petunia. She explained the operation, avoiding her gaze as if a little burdened.

*****

Next night. The bar was crowded with wizards and merchants who came from here and there. Those of us who had paid for the lodging were quietly sipping drinks in a corner, and Petunia Titi was sighing and covering her hair.

Milia was watching people with a smile on her face, and I asked Petunia.

“So can you find out? Who is the person from the Mage Tower?”

“…That person over there. I remember the last time you went to the Magic Tower, you said that you relieve stress at a bar every weekend.”

When Petunia Titi went to meet Mobius, she rode the elevator with another wizard getting off the upper level of the Mage Tower, and then he told his colleague such a story.

“Hey, don’t do that either. Go to the town bar on the weekend and have a beer. What the fuck is that sex?”

“Don’t say that out loud! Sick.”

At that time, Petunia Titi had to meet Morbius, so she didn’t react much to the nonsense. However, the wizard’s colleague was discouraging his friend with a very embarrassing expression. The tone and voice that did not care about her surroundings, and her rather unpleasant appearance remained in Petunia Titi’s memory.

And now, in a corner of the bar, a man who looked just like the one Petunia Titti saw at the time was drinking beer and shouting in a low voice.

“Oh, fucking sex.”

And he ate the whole chicken with a satisfied face, and Milia smiled at the man.

“Is that the man?”

“Uh.”

I asked.

“How will we do it?”

“Oh my, are you talking about how to attract men with a succubus next to you?”

Millia made a tearful expression, then smiled again and winked at me. Her expression really changed like a mask, so there was no way to know which one was her true feelings. She waved her hand at us once, then moved up to the man, wiggling her hips.

“Here, brother.”

“Yes yes? Yes?”

The man stopped drinking beer and looked at Milia. Miria was exhaling her sweet breath as she blatantly exposed her cleavage and twisted her legs coquettishly. Facing her slightly flushed face, the man couldn’t come to his senses and spoke gibberish.

“Ah, ah, ah, what, what are you doing?”

“Why? What have to happen? I just came because I wanted to talk.”

Fingers swayed on the table. Their wet lips showed off their soft texture, and they swayed as if they were leaning on a glass, and sat face to face naturally. The man looked around and fidgeted, then stretched his waist and said.

“Ah, haha! This, talk! Yes Hey, talk!”

“Brother, you are cute.”

When Milia said that, he drew his breath hard like an engine full of her mana, and his face turned red and he shrank.

“Ears, are you cute? Hehe… ! Oh, oh that… !”

Milia asked, rubbing her table with her fingers.

“Is your brother a wizard?”

“Ah yes… ! Yes He’s a wizard, uh, how did you know?”

Millia reached out and touched the wizard’s chest. On his chest was a badge bestowed on upper level wizards by the Mobius Mage Tower. As she squeezed the badge, the man twisted his body as if pressing on his nipples.

“Oh… ! Oh oh… !”

I was giggling, sipping my drink, and Taffy watched me and poked a finger at my nipple.

“Ah… !”

“Evan. Good mood?”

“It’s so damn good.”

Stopping her from continuing to stab me, I observed the situation. The mage was scratching his head, and Millia naturally asked about the mage tower.

“Brother. You work at the Mobius Mage Tower. I am also studying magic.”

“Ah… Is it so?”

“I heard that Mobius Mage Tower is very secure, and outsiders are not allowed to enter at all? I wanted to go on a field trip, but I couldn’t because I was afraid of it.”

As Milia put on her sullen expression, the sorceress began to bark like a dog and explain.

“Eh, ah… ! Not quite like that. The Mobius Mage Tower has strict security, but the 1st to 3rd floors are open to outsiders, and from the 4th floor onward, there are a lot of insider research. The reason for this is that there are many confidential research items among insider research, and also because Mobius said that security is the lifeblood of the Mage Tower when he was newly inaugurated. For our Mage Tower security, we use not only refined magic stones, but also a unique driving method that Mobius himself came up with. Unlike the driving methods used in other Mage Towers, this driving method consumes less mana stones. As for how efficient this is because it consumes fewer mana stones, is there a magic device called Imperius that was mentioned in a magic thesis the other day? Do you know Imperius?”

Seeing the magician’s twinkle in her eyes, Milia replied in a puzzled tone.

“Oh, no… ? You don’t know about that?”

“Ah, you don’t know Imperius. Now, what Imperius is, is the magic mining equipment that was presented at the conference last year, and it is extremely efficient compared to the equipment used to mine ordinary mines. As for how efficient this is, it can be operated for a month by using the existing driving method and using 5 mana stones. But now, if you use the new driving formula created by the elder Mobius for Imperius, you can use 4 magic stones to drive it for another month and 15 days. However, there is another downside to this, as the magic circle is made so delicately that it is vulnerable to breakdowns, and when there is confusion or mechanical failure, a magical explosion occurs. Ah, do you know the difference between a magical explosion and a normal explosion?”

“Ah, that’s right…”

Millia looked at us with a puzzled expression. The wizard spit out a lot of information, but the information he was spitting out was useless at all.

“Just an explosion burns or kills a person, right? Magical explosion is not a burst of energy, but rather a phenomenon in which mana just explodes like water bursting out. You never know what will happen if a huge amount of magic power permeates the magic circle. They said that the magic circle itself could be distorted or malfunction, so it could become a completely different magic. Are you curious? Some magic towers are conducting research on such magical explosions…”

“Here, there brother.”

Milia tried to shut his mouth, but he grabbed her hand as she raged. The wizard trembled as if he had been electrocuted, and he couldn’t even meet Milia’s eyes and shut her mouth. I was distracted from laughing, and Petunia Titi scratched her head and glared at me.

“Why not? It’s funny.”

“…No, that’s fine.”

She turned her head away as if she had nothing to say, and in the meantime saw the two of them getting up. As Milia walked ahead, wagging her hips like her tail, the sorceress trotted behind her.

We quietly followed the wizard,

Millia opens the door,

The moment the wizard steps in his foot

Kang!

I swung the club I had prepared in advance.

“Keep it off…”

The man’s body collapsed, and I nodded in satisfaction.

“This bastard knows where the security room is, right?”
