If You Got the Power of Flight, Invisibility, and Teleportation, What Would You Do? v2c40

I teleport to my room and that’s where I lost consiousness.

It seems that my life has been saved.

「Sorry, I was beaten badly」

「Master came and cured it. However, please take a rest tonight」

「He said that you lost just according to the schedule」

Even Matifa, Even master, just what do they think of me?

「Well, that’s true. If you can do that, you’ll be a Hero」

HeroーーA person who can get over any hardships and rescue many people. If someone can force to hold down that situation, it’s not impossible for him to destroy or rescue a country.

「You must be joking. I’m not a hero but the one being beaten by the hero. Rather than that, what’s the current situation?」

Just how long was it after I fainted? What happened after the meeting? What’s the state of the castle? Is Seria safe? What about Lululie? Did Misha betray me too? Various question runs through my head.

「It’s been half a day since you passed out. The date is about to change soon. I took over the guard duty you received from Lululie. She was surprised when I went to the castle gate to meet her, but that’s probably okay. Elves hate and are wary of dark elves, but she was convinced when I said I’m an acquaintance of Ren. I told her that you’re injured and is taking care of something」

「No, I’m your assistant after all」

It’s seems Cathy had dealt with Lululie. She may be useless in some places but she’s much more experienced than me. There’s no need to worry.

「It’s that cat girl beast right? She seem to have noticed me but she didn’t take any strange behavior. But, we must be cautious」

However, Cathy holds me down.

「Please take some rest」

Cathy looked at me angrily and sighed. It seems that persuasion is impossible already.

「Even if I told you you won’t listen. Then, Ren, there’s an additional commission from Master」

Then, Cathy took out the parchment and parcel which is rolled on the nearby stand.

「Additional commission is the assasination of Matifa Lau Ell Pito. Master gave this as this is necessary」

A pair of dagger was taken out from the package. It’s a cursed black sword with ancient characters carved into it.

「It’s a cursed sword that absorbs magic. Though it’s a top class cursed sword that sucks up the magical power of the owner, it doesn’t matter to you. It’s an order that you will use that and kill the witch of supreme time」

Cathy described it cool-headedly.

This has an entirely different reason from guarding Seria. The reason why I risk my life is because I want to protect Seria.

No, is it possible in the first place?

「…Do you seriously think I can?」

First, the difference in overwhelming pwoer. She has a vast amount of magical power and botomless magic. It’s impossible to break up in front.

Next would be my feelings. The woman who slept with me betrayed me. I became attached to her. Can I possibly kill her?

Thinking what to do, Cathy talked to me, pressing for answers.

「It seems you’re worried. However, your body is in danger if you don’t do it. I honestly don’t know what the witch called Matifa can do. If this escalates just like that, you’ll die the following day. Isn’t it wise to kill her as master said before it’s too late?」

I felt the cursed sword handed to me awfully heavy.

◆

After talking to Cathy, I turned up to Lululie’s house to see how Misha is before going to the castle.

Lululie noticed me and called out to me with a surprised voice.

「Ah, Ren-san, you were safe!!」

「Yes, I feel uneasy. Lilith and Misha-chan were awake until now, as one would expect, they’re put to sleep」

Lululie stares at my body intently. Then, she noticed the bandage wound on my arm and she touched it gently.

「You really are hurt. Are you all right?」

7「No, please don’t mind it. I’m relieved that you’re safe more than anything else」

Lululie felt relieved. Though she heard from Cathy that I can’t come, she waited for me specially.

「Sorry to worry you. But, are you fine without sleep?」

「You did say that. But, be relieved as I’m alive」

It seems that Cathy pretended that I was attacked by a demon. If that’s the case, Lululie’s worry is understandable.

Lululie giggled silly.

「Ren-san, have you eaten dinner yet? Should I make a light midnight snack?」

「It’s fine. The injured person should take a rest」

Leaving that unsaid, Lululie disappeared to the kitchen. I confirmed Misha’s state meanwihle.

Misha is lying down on the bed with Lilith. The blanket was off and her belly is exposed. Seeing her sleeping face, I can’t see her plotting something.

What about if I got killed? I think she’ll be sad but the possibility of her being glad as he was freed from being a slave isn’t zero.

Lululie seeing me threw out a question.

「You look gloomy. Are you worrying about something?」

「Yes, a face that’s facing hardships. You can consult me if you’re okay with it」

Lululie sits down, looked straight to my eye and asked. Words naturally leave my mouth.

「Just a bit, I was betrayed by someone I thought is a companion」

「She2 probably means no harm It’s like a child prank. But, it’s not a prank on a permissible level. Depending on the case I will…」

Kill. I didn’t say it. When I said that, it will be denied certainly. If that happens, I won’t be able to put my hand on Matifa anymore

Lululie listened to me then pondered. Then, she began to speak slowly.

「Is it a child’s prank? Lilith often plays prank at me too. I do scold her but it does not heal easily. After Ren-san came she became docile but she’s originally lively. But, that person isn’t a child but an adult isn’t it? I think an adult must atone properly」

Lululie express her honest opinion.

However, Lululie continued to speak.

「But if Ren-san suffers from it, then you don’t have to do the impossible, right? For example, I think the best method would be to cut all your ties with her」

Lululie was worried about me till the end. A way for my fear to escape my body was presented.

At the point where I got related to person called Matifa, I can no longer prepare an escape.

「Yes, that’s why, please don’t force yourself too much. You can always consult me anytime, I’ll even hear your grumbles」

Then, the talk ended. I took over the cleaning of dishes and I forced Lululie to sleep.
I decided to do nothing about Misha for now. I tidy up while she’s sleeping, Misha doesn’t seem to be a hindrance.
