9. The Secret Garden

"Huh, me?"

Rose squirmed and stretched out her right hand with her orchid fingers, and began to make Lilith reluctant to beat her.

"Well, yes, I'm one of them, and the other one is Quirrell, and by the way, Quirrell's name is so nobilizing, so her full name is actually Quirrell Bunitalia......"

β€œ...... Ahem, let's put that aside for now. After making eye contact with Asma, Lilith resisted the urge in her heart and asked, "I don't know if you're playing dumb, so I'll say again, we're looking for the leader, not the Mary Sue." ”

"But I'm the leader, aren't you looking for me?" Rose tilted her head, although it looked real, not cute at all, "Speaking of which, you two are new faces." ”

Is your memory worse than that of a fish?!

"Who are you, and why did you come to this place from the outside?"

|an][shu][ba].β€œ Looking for you, of course, there is a purpose, but don't worry, we are not suspicious people, we are really not suspicious 'people'"

β€œ......”

Looking at Lilith, Rose frowned, and it was at this moment that Lilith noticed the sharp scrutiny in the eyes of the fat Mary Sue opposite, which did not match her body shape and personality in the slightest.

Well, it seems that I didn't find the wrong person on my side.

"Well, since you're a guest, can I take you to my house for a tour? Of course, Quirrell-chan will come along. ”

Rose said, writhing her fat body and starting to show Lilith the way. And the orcs on both sides of the road have long been surprised by Rose's behavior of obstructing the city. Just cast all eyes on Lilith...... On Asmill beside him.

No way. A big golden fox has come out of a group of gray orcs, and anyone will take a few more looks.

"Fox-chan, why are you so cute? ”

Rose, who was halfway down the road, turned around and asked, "And your fur is so pretty...... How do you get it?"

"Born ......" Not to mention Asmar, even Lilith is difficult to bring up her interest in communicating with Rose.

"As for the figure, although I am very confident in my nobility, the figure may still need a little exercise. ”

More than a moment!

"Figure, I actually think you look pretty good. ”

Ignoring Lilith's horrified eyes. Ashmill laughed, "You're slim enough, aren't you?"

"......" Rose stared at Asmola for a moment, then turned back, "Hehehe, thanks for the compliment, it seems that I am really perfect." ”

Ashmo, I'm glad I hurt you. You are absolutely worthy of your title.

Led by Rose, Lilith and Ashmill first returned to the dangerous tent where Quirrell was.

Mia, who had been stunned by the strange green smoke, was gone, probably leaving by herself when she woke up. Since this place is small, there will still be a chance to meet.

"Quirrell-chan! Still fiddling with the cauldron in there?"

"Didn't you say don't bother with the sorcerer's alchemy!"

A small frying pan flew out of the tent, but this time it was Rose instead of Mia, and after smashing the fat on Rose's chest, the frying pan sank into it completely, and then fell to the ground with Rose's breathing.

What a perfect defense......

"Quirrell, there's something urgent. ”

"Don't bother me! This time it's almost successful! Alchemy of turning stones into gold bars!"

"Quirrell-chan, I'm in, huh?"

Rose said and walked towards the tent, and as she lifted it, a familiar smell of smoke wafted into Lilith's nose.

Isn't that the smell of gunpowder? Not to mention that it is impossible to turn stones into gold bars, but why does it smell of gunpowder?

Wait a minute...... Gunpowder?

"Hey, be careful!"

【Bang】

A burst of fire erupted from the top of the tent, and then a small black image hit the belly of the rose as it was about to open the tent, and then the rose rolled on the ground several times like a ball, and finally got up in disgrace.

"Hey, failed again. Quirrell, who had been wrapped in fat, was unharmed compared to the roses that had gnawed on the soil, and after getting up and patting the dirt on his robe, he picked up the must-have king-sized wizard's hat that had fallen on the ground and put it on his head to cover a pair of cat ears.

Brunette-haired, blue-eyed, it seems that this is another leader, although judging by what she just did, there is not what a leader should be.

"Rose, who are they?"

Just when Lilith wondered why this Quirrell could easily pull up the fat rose to a certain level, Quirrell's eyes were already on herself.

"You're a black cat too?"

Quirrell said and sniffed his nose, "But you don't smell right...... What's going on with you two?"

"Quirrell, my stomach hurts, I was hit by you......"

"No kidding! If it weren't for your interference, I would have smelted the gold bars. ”

Quirrell yelled at Rose mercilessly, "Come on, you brought these two guys, right?"

"Oh, yes, I'm going to take them to our house. ”

Rose blinked, "Quirrell, you're going too." ”

Led by Rose, she avoided the eyes and ears of all the orcs, and after a long detour in the mountain path, Lilith stopped at Quirrell's signal.

Along the way, the two beast-eared girls didn't say a word, but this didn't make Lilith feel strange, or rather, the current appearance was what they were, and the Mary Sue and alchemists in the village at the beginning were mostly just pretending.

"You're here. Rose stopped, "Our stronghold ......"

But isn't there just a forest around here?

...... Could it be ......

"It's just a little trick. Quirrell said as he took out a twig and drew it on the ground, "Blatantly you can only be crushed, so I set up some illusions." ”

As the final strokes of Quirrell's magic circle on the ground fell, a completely different scene unfolded before Lilith's eyes.

The dense woods had been replaced by wooden fenced fortifications, and in the middle of them were all small wooden houses, where groups of orcs armed with all kinds of weapons were patrolling back and forth. After seeing Quirrell and Rose, they resumed their patrols.

"How's that, Quirrell-chan's magic. Rose asked, "If someone who doesn't know the situation walks in, it's only possible to be spinning around in place." ”

"Well, that's good. ”

Lilith nodded.

What amazed her was not Quirrell's magic, because even Lilith herself could do it with ease, and to be honest, the Cheng dΓΉ of this illusion was still too low, so that even outsiders could detect the abnormality.

However, Quirrell is a cat lady, and it is a rare occurrence that there is a cat lady who can do magic in the orcs. And looking at her situation, she has been able to arrange such a maze, and most of her strength should be able to compare to a young magician.

"It's not safe to talk outside, let's go inside. ”

After rearranging the maze from the inside, Quirrell led the way into their stronghold. (To be continued......)
