Chapter 88 Dangerous Relic ②

Part 2

Benetta, the Thief who has an excellent five sense, stands up and point at the entrance.

It is a noble mansion. Security is quite thick. In particular, for Gladys-kyo who has an unrivaled opposition against Treasure Hunters, the guards he employed are all strong enough to defeat Hunters.

The screamer was a man. However, his voice wasn’t raised because he has a slight accident.

“I will go ahead!”

Ark was already running before Montor gave instructions to the guards.

I open the door vigorously and run along the wide corridor covered with carpets with my companions. The flat floor covered with carpets is much easier to walk than Shrines we are always exploring.

We run past the housemaids as they are standing still, they probably heard the same scream.

The screams didn’t end after one scream. Two or three more time later… There are sounds of glass shattering.

“Why do we hear scream in Gladys-kyo’s mansion!?”

“Maybe Liz-san came to rob them.”

“If! Liz came! There won’t have! Any scream! Raising!”

Isabella who is running in parallel with the other complains with a screaming voice.

After all, it wasn’t something like comforting éclair who is depressed!

I was prepared for something to happen but when I actually experienced it, I feel like I am having a nightmare or something. Of course, this isn’t my first time.

Van Gladys is in the reception room. I don’t know what is going on, but éclair’s safety is our first priority.

As nothing had happened, I let my guard down so now I am worrying if I am too late.

No… It is starting from now on. I have my weapons. I still have my magic and potions.

Our preparation is complete. Even if a dragon attacks, we can repel it without any problems.

Benetta who is leading us, suddenly stops running.

From the corner of the corridor we are running to, a guard wearing an armor with Gladys coat of arms crashes into the wall with tremendous force.

After this he stays down on the floor. His armor covering his vitals are all dented out and he doesn’t even move after falling down.

Ark predict the opponent attack method in this short lapse of time.

He is completely unconscious but there are no noticeable scars. Was he blown away by sheer strength?The guards are big men in an armor, but if you are an experienced Hunter then you can do the same even if you are not Ark.

However, such a phenomenon usually doesn’t occur. It is too inefficient.

Even if the opponent only has a blunt weapon, you can kill in a more efficient way by crushing someone from the head than sweeping him sideway. Besides, if there are no cut marks then…

Behind Ark, the priestess Yu makes her report in a small voice.

“It is alright, he is… Still alive.”

“…… Aah.”

Considering the size of the mansion, the size of the target is limited.

It is on a blind spot but from the other side of the corner, there isn’t a strong presence.

Is it a rebellion, an assassination or a thief who want to steal the item éclair got? Many possibilities cross my brain, but it is too unnatural that it happens in the Count Residence.

Isabella pulls out a short wand and Armelle stand on guard with her swords out. There is no opening on “Ark Brave (Holy Spirit’s Son)” Party who went through Shrines when anything can happen.

Montor must have called for the security. The more time passes the more guards are gathering in here.

However, if the enemy’s purpose is éclair-jou, then there is no time to waste.

I cast a spell and bestow thunder elemental on my left hand. Electricity zapping sound is heard. Although it has a small light, it is one of Ark Rodin’s move making him able to overpower a big man.

On the other side of the corner, a small shadow appears.

When Isabella and the others who were ready for battle saw that appearance, they froze up.

“Uh, uh… Don’t, don’t scorn me. Don’t, look, at me, with those eyes. Don’t be afraid, don’t be envious, when you are only weakling. When you are weak, er than, me… Aaaaaah!!!”

A pure white dress that is swaying left and right and a small sword on her waist that her father gave her on for her birthday. Her well-groomed golden hair is messed up, she is barefoot and her center of gravity on her body is swaying, even now it looks like she will fall.

Isabella takes a step back with a pale expression. Yu hold her mouth and Benetta squeezes her cheeks and leans forward a little.

It should have been the girl Ark came to see. But now, her figure is completely different from what Ark remembers.

Her entire face was covered in pink flesh.

Blue eyes are peeping through the jammed holes located in her eyes and open her pupils when she is looking Ark. The flesh sticking on her face are crawling like a worm and if you look at it carefully, you will fell strangeness on it.

.

Even if it was grotesque, there are still éclair’s features on her. This is way too daunting.

I feel a terrifying and distorting force coming out of her small body. Unlike éclair who I was familiar about, there is a distorting and big presence.

Although éclair Gladys is certainly overflowing with talent that is only for someone of her age, her physique, skills and Mana Material isn’t enough to defeat a professional guard they hired. She shouldn’t have, normally.

Upon seeing her appearance, Ark wasn’t angry or wanted to call out to her but wanted to throw up.

“I, I see… So, you wear the mask. I don’t need a sword… That is what it was about… This is… Unexpected.”

“UUuuuuUUh… Aaaa… A… Aaaark… Do…no?”

éclair called Ark’s name with a voice as if she was having a nightmare.

TL notes:

Thanks for reading!

I love that they said that if it was Liz there won’t be any sound of guard screaming if she was the one breaking in. If it was her, it will be like an Assassin’s Creed player. Well a true stealth player I mean, not like me who charge after I get spotted every single time. XD

Tchao à plus!

She said Ark-dono but it is cut so it became do… no.
