174. Allen Cell and Political Marriage [25]

We left the Orest branch of Holy Knights Association and headed to the Phantom Spirit Laboratory, located on the outskirts of Drestia.

To save time, we did not use a carriage. Exactly because we were in a hurry, we ran on foot.

After a couple hours of running, we arrived at Drestia, the Merchant City.

We ran through “God Street”, along the center of the town and proceeded to the forest that spread beyond that.

We pushed our way through the rough forest terrain, and came before a half destroyed laboratory.

「Fuu, we’ve finally arrived.」

Ringard Branch of Phantom Spirit Laboratory – the Black Organization research facility where Ria was once abducted and confined.

「It’s pretty big looking at it again.」

「When it comes to finding a single spot in this huge laboratory… it’s going to take some time.」

Ria and Rose muttered.

「What does the spot even look like in the first place?」

「To be precise, it seems to be a technique called『Shadow Crossing』. I’m guessing it might be something blackish.」

Lilim-senpai and Ferris-senpai said, while tilting their heads.

(As Rose says, this may take longer than I expected.)

The laboratory is vast, and its interior is intended like a maze as a countermeasure against intruders.

As the atmosphere started to become tense, Sebas-san clapped his hands together to draw everyone’s attention.

「We don’t have much time right now. Let’s start the search right away! Allen, you know the structure of the laboratory, so you will lead!」

「Eh…? Ah, yes, I understand!」

Something with what Sebas-san said gave me an uneasy feeling, but I stepped into the laboratory for the time being.

At that moment,

「This is…!?」

An indescribable『unpleasant feeling』rose up from the ground.

(This repulsive feeling which also feels a little nostalgic…)

No doubt, it’s him.

「What’s up, Allen?」

Ria tilted her head, looking at me just standing there.

It seems that she cannot sense this feeling.

「…I think I might’ve found the spot.」

「R-Really!?」

「Yes. I sense a very unpleasant presence. If we follow this presence, we should find the spot.」

「『Unpleasant presence』…? 」

「I’m not really sure, but I think it’s probably Dodriel’s spiritual power.」

When I and Ria were talking about it,

「That unpleasant presence… we have no idea what Dodriel’s spiritual power is like, but if the inhuman Allen says so, I’m sure he is correct!」

Sebas-san gave his stamp of approval.

「T-Thank you.」

How do I put this… the reason he trusted me didn’t make me all that happy.

Then, we went to the depths of the laboratory following Dodriel’s spiritual power; to the dungeon where Ria was once held.

「Here… No, it’s beyond here!」

「E-Even if you say『beyond』… There’s nowhere to go.」

As Ria said, we were in a small room of about four tatami mats.

But his spiritual power is definitely coming from beyond this point.

「Sorry, but step aside a little.」

I said, and cut towards the mud wall in front of me.

「HA!!!」

As a result, the wall in front of me collapsed very easily,

(As I expected…)

Beyond this point, there was a large space.

「「A hidden room…!?」」

Ria and Rose widened their eyes.

「O-Oi, look! In the center of the room, there is something that looks like a spot!」

「Or rather, I think this is definitely the spot, though…!」

「As expected of the inhuman… It seems that even your intuition is monstrous.」

The senpais said, excitedly, and turned towards the black shadow swirling in the center of the hidden room.

「I feel Dodriel’s strong spiritual power from this black shadow. This is definitely the spot he created.」

I was the only one who could sense Dodriel’s spiritual power.

The fact that I seem to be connected with him is a little unpleasant.

But this time it was helpful, so I don’t mind it too much.

「From here on out, we’ll be at the notorious Holy Ronelia Empire. There is no guarantee that we will be able to return safely. Everyone, are you『prepared』?」

As I confirmed with everyone one last time,

「I still think it’s too dangerous, but… If Allen is going, I will follow you wherever you go!」

「Holy Ronelia Empire… There is no better enemy as an opponent to enhance Sakura Blossom One-Sword style to the next level!」

「That idiot Sie who left on her own… I’ll drag her back if I have to!」

「Parting without even saying goodbye… I definitely can’t accept that, though…!」

「I am the president’s knight. I’ll even go to the depths of hell for her sake!」

Everyone declared their resolve.

「All right then, let’s go!」

And we jumped into Dodriel’s spot.
