"It's here, it's coming. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Rem!" The excited Natsuki Pleiades couldn't help but stand up and looked at the distant scenery. The village of Alam is already within easy reach, and even the white roof of the mansion can be seen in the swaying canopy at the end.

"Yes. Rem nodded equally happily, and after a long journey, the two finally hurried back to the Rozval mansion.

Sister, you must wait for me. The maid clenched the reins in her hand, her heart beating faster, and she was very worried about whether she would still see the familiar smiling face when she arrived at her destination.

Wait, no......

"Be careful. Rem, who let go of the reins, flew towards the Nagetsu Pleiades beside him.

At this moment, a spinning blade flew out of nowhere, slashing across the neck of the running Earth Dragon. In the blink of an eye, the creature that still maintained its footing posture was reduced to a different position.

The weightless luxury carriage inevitably rolls aside. After that, the black-robed weirdos who emerged one by one were standing in a semi-arc around Natsuki and Rem, who had escaped the catastrophe.

"Who are you? Natsuki looked at the attacker in front of him in a panic, and the dragon chariot specially given by Kurxiu was already lying next to them.

"Witch cultist!!" Rem gritted his teeth and said word by word, the anger in his eyes burning uncontrollably. Apparently she recognized the other person's origin, perhaps because of the pupil-like emblem on their hoods above their eyes.

The signal for battle began when Rem shouted their names, and an assailant fearlessly rushed towards the maid, who was greeted by a meteor hammer that smashed the upper half of his body, and Rem, who had taken out the weapon from nowhere, slowly gathered the chains.

Seeing this sledgehammer that had caused painful memories to him again, Natsuki Pleiades swallowed a little embarrassed, and always felt that Rem at this time was more terrible than the attacker.

The rest of the attackers seemed indifferent to the sacrifice of their comrades, and did not even glance at the corpses, but only drew their weapons to each other in tacit agreement, and the atmosphere immediately fell into tension.

It was Rem who was the first to attack, and the meteor hammer that was thrown into the air again swept towards the attackers under the flexible manipulation of the girl, and except for the first two unlucky eggs who were directly killed, the remaining nine attackers rushed towards Rem in different directions.

The first knife that came over was dodged by Rem, who was crouching and leaning over, and pulled the chain horizontally with his right hand to block the opponent's second attack, and the footsteps retreated, and the girl who opened a safe distance turned her left hand at the attacking attacker who was approaching on the other side.

"Elsew. A spell of magic blurted out, and a humanoid ice sculpture seemed to be natural.

But this moment of pause was caught by the enemy waiting on the side, and the flying dagger was firmly inserted into the girl's right leg, and blood immediately came out.

Three more assailants pounced on Rem, the tense engagement leaving her with no time to heal her wounds, her right hand shaking her chains, and the meteor hammer struck from behind them, shattering them in one fell swoop before they could approach their master.

It was the dagger again, and it was the cultist who was standing in the distance and threw it, this time the injured part became the girl's left shoulder, and even though he dodged the magic recited by the enemy, Rem still couldn't avoid the fate of being injured with more enemies.

If you can win, you will definitely win. It's all here, and no one wants to stop Rem from getting home. Taking advantage of a moment's respite, the maid retracted the Meteor Hammer.

"Damn. Cai Yue complained that he had the heart to help because of the fast pace of the battle, he could not find the best point to cut into, and wanted to harass the other party's long-range, but he couldn't find the right weapon. Rushing forward is probably only causing unnecessary trouble to Rem.

Why, why am I so weak!!

"Pleiades. The maid with her back to the boy shouted her partner's name, "You go quickly, go to the mansion to find my sisters!"

"No, how can I leave you here to fight alone. Natsuki, who stood up, looked at Rem's strong back.

"Let's go, do you want us all to die here?" Rem finally turned his head to look behind him, his previously calm eyes had been replaced by awe-inspiring anger, and the purple horns that emerged from his forehead indicated that the girl had fallen into a terrible state.

"I'm going to find my sister to help me, please. ”

The maid turned her head to look at the attacker, who seemed to be surprised by the change in Rem and remained on the sidelines.

"I'll come to your rescue, Rem. Biting her lower lip and hating her weakness, Natsuki finally looked at the maid's parting gaze, with a determination that she would not hesitate to die.

"Yes. Rem nodded, waiting for distant footsteps behind him. She lowered her head and smiled slightly, Lord Rozval, Rem has completed the task you assigned.

"Witch cultists, all deserve to die!" Raising his head again, Rem, who had already turned into a female ghost, rushed towards the attacker who seemed to be chasing Caiyue Pleiades without hesitation.

Caizuki, who had been deliberately scouting in the forest, ran skillfully and nimly in the path, using the highest speed he could run, approaching the village of Alam in the distance.

Hurry up, hurry up. Sooner than later, Amilia, I'm back. I'm not going to do stupid things again this time and say anything that makes you sad.

The fence that isolated the forest was already close in front of him, and he turned over to support the jumping Caiyue Pleiades, shouting as he ran: "Is there anyone, is there anyone? I'm the Pleiades, help me." ”

There was no response, and the noisy village in the past was only Caiyue's own voice echoing lonely at the moment. Then the running gradually stopped.

He saw the corpse of a village.

The villagers, who were supposed to be called by their names, always with unsuspecting smiles, lay down in front of him in a gathered manner.

"Petra,"

Natsuki, who was kneeling on the ground, stretched out her trembling hands to the girl in front of her. On the face that should be full of sunny smiles, he still maintains the pain of dying.

In her frightened gaze, she noticed the wounds on the girl's missing arms and legs. A subconscious feeling of nausea rushed from his stomach to his throat.

"Hmm...... Yes...... Ah......h

Cai Yue, who was staring down at the ground, inserted her mouth with her sleeve, and kept opening her mouth to tell herself: "Emilia is waiting for me, Emilia is waiting for me." Amelia...... By the way, and Rem, who is still fighting them. ”

Tears slipped from the corners of her eyes, and Natsuki got up from the ground again, and ran past the corpses of the villagers with an unwilling howl.

Why is this happening? Why is this happening?

I want to see Emilia and miss her smile. I want to be treated gently by Rem and Ram. Betty's poisonous mouth and Ram's strong rhetoric are very nostalgic.

If only I could stay here forever, if only I hadn't gone to the royal capital.

The time spent in the royal capital, the existence of the royal capital, are the root of evil.

Rheinharut, Firut, Roma, Kursius, Phyllis, Wilhelm, Arashi, Julius, Anastasia, Al, Priscilla, members of the Order of the Magi, members of the Order of Knights.

It would be nice if none of these people existed, and without them, you wouldn't have lost yourself.

If I hadn't gone to the royal capital at that time, but had been by their side, all this wouldn't have happened, right?

With such a thought, Cai Yue stopped his steps, and he came to the gate of the mansion, and the corpses in the garden made his heart be pulled hard.

"Ram ......" moved forward little by little.

"Betty ......," Natsuki kept calling their names.

"Amilia!" was just nothing to do.

Arashi, who was lying on the roof, straightened up and looked at Nanatsuki Pleiades, who was heading towards the mansion with trembling steps below. No matter how far away he was, he could smell the thick fear that permeated the other party.

Like many souls who die by the sword, when people taste despair, so does the hatred of the weak.

Honglian lowered her eyebrows and sighed.

"The leading actors are all together, and sure enough, this is the plot point. ”
