I wanted to tell Duke-sama to calm down, but he wasn’t in the mood to listen.
How could they throw a stone at Duke-sama? They sure were fearless.
“Who is it!”
Victor yelled at something unseen. We waited a few moments for a response, but nothing came back.
I’d like to think it was a natural disaster or something, but it was definitely thrown on purpose.
“Wow, it’s funny that they’re trying to pick a fight with us.”
Leon’s mouth turned into a wry grin, while Victor turned a challenging eye on Duke-sama and asked.
“How do we find the enemy?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“We wait for them to attack us.”
“Can you dodge all their attacks? What makes you so special that you’re willing to let them get to you first?”
“Who do you think I am?”
“Don’t get carried away just because you can use magic.”
Victor smiled at Duke-sama, who was not in the least bit impatient.
“I’m going to get us out of here without using magic.”
“Heh, that’ll be interesting to see.”
Could it be that Victor and Duke-sama don’t get along?
If anything, Duke-sama might be a good match for Vian, though.
“Here they come!”
At Leon’s words, everyone prepared for battle.
The situation was tense because no one knew where the attack would come from. We have to be alert in all directions. Fighting an invisible foe was terrifying, to be honest.
Thanks to the light sleep, my strength recovered a little, but I still haven’t regained my magic power.
And I was hungry. I wanted to eat a large amount of macarons.
I yawned. It was at that moment that I heard, “Kid!” Victor’s shout echoed in my ears.
Suddenly, a figure falls from the sky. At the same time, the figure takes a firm, crab-like stance on the ground and brandishes a large, long scythe at me at a ridiculous speed.
Bending at the waist as hard as I can, I dodged the first swing. I continued to do a backflip and distanced myself from the enemy.
The opponent stopped moving, possibly because he didn’t expect me to avoid the attack. I slowly took in the enemy’s distinct appearance.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIts entire body was covered in brown fur, and it wore a mask that appeared to be made of wood, so I could not see its true face. The mask was painted with a strange pattern in red paint.
Could it be a traditional mask?
I looked around and saw that we were surrounded by them. Except for the one in front of me, all the others wore masks with orange patterns.
Oh, maybe this was the leader I was dealing with? That’s great!
I may be lucky. The head seemed to be willing to fight with me as well!
“Are you okay?”
“Of course I am.”
Duke-sama’s words made me smile.
“Do you know these guys?”
“No, I don’t know them. I’ve never even heard of these creepy, weird guys, nor have I met them before.”
Victor answered Duke-sama’s question with a frown.
How could you say “creepy weirdos” in front of them? Well, I guess caring was not a word in Victor’s dictionary.
