Chapter 82
Chapter 82
At midnight when everyone was sleeping, there were several shadows quietly creeping into the goblin village .
Their numbers did not exceed ten people . All of them were wearing black clothes .
All of the mbers took special training so when they invaded the village, they didn’t cause any noise in the forest .
Sotis, the hands of the n moved irregularly . It seems they coordinated by making good use of hand signs .
Their target was a person who was sleeping inside the main building in this village .
They knew from their previous eting that the village leader was a man with a monster-like strength and that he employed a lot of slave soldiers and monsters .
That’s why they were being ordered to co and kidnap his favorite slave .
The target was the alchemist girl . Even though she was the most senior slave of this village leader, her fighting power was low . The task would be finished easily even if she resisted .
One of the guys in the black suits soundlessly went into the building . There was also another entering to give so assistance . The rest of them were watching the surrounding area as much as possible .
15 minutes later, the man who had entered had co out . On his shoulder, he carried a large filled jute sack .
One of the n who had been watching on the outside confird the sack . After that he nodded at the other man that it was indeed their target .
The n left the area without any sound . It really was a perfect task .
If there was no other strong people than them in this place at night .
=====
“Lord Patriarch, Amy-dono has safely been kidnapped by them . ” (Velgord)
“Thanks for your hard work, make sure you’re able to secure Amy’s safety, okay?” (Hibiki)
“I will thoroughly carry it out . ” (Velgord)
Velgord reported the situation to while kneeling on the ground .
By the way, all of the vampires called “Lord Patriarch” . I don’t care what they called so I let it be .
Though everyone was issued instructions at once that sothing might happen after that ti when Ayla was attacked downtown, I didn’t expect the day would be coming so soon .
I had received the report from the ghosts, who were spread out as an early-warning net in the forest, that there was a suspicious group approaching, so I had been thinking to avoid giving damage to the other party .
Since I didn’t have any proof that their targets were my slave Ayla and the others, I arranged several people so anyone could be kidnapped .
“Well then, shall we go to their headquarters?” (Hibiki)
“As you will . ” (Velgord)
=====
Apparently, I have been kidnapped safely .
It seems their target was us as our master had said .
I was carried out from the village and shouldered in the bag for two hours before they let out .
When I ca out from the bag, the first thing that I saw was a female priestess praying while crying .
Is this the “selection priest” who was kidnapped that the stew uncle was talking about?
If that is so, then the one who kidnapped are the evil god believers .
“Ah, god . Please send your aid . Scorching Dragon-sama, please help . ” (priestess)
Although there was nothing wrong with a priest having faith in god at a ti like this, but you shouldn’t be placing hope on the scorching dragon too, you know?
It’s because that girl, Selva, was sleeping like a log in the guest room of our ho .
Our master asked us to search for information as much as possible, however he had said to not overwork ourselves to do it .
First of all, let’s talk to this priestess, I guess?
“Er, can I ask sothing?” (Amy)
“Eh!?” (priestess)
Apparently, the priestess had not noticed when I was brought into this room .
By the way, the room that we were in now was a stone room with only a hole for ventilation .
The door at the entrance doesn’t seem like it would budge with a person’s strength .
“Are you, the “Selection Priest” of the Church?” (Amy)
“Y-yes . Yes I am . Were you brought here by force too?” (priestess)
“Yeah, well, that’s right . I guess . ” (Amy)
Actually, I have a whisper ghost haunting , which I could use as a “trump card” when the ti ca so there was a world of a difference between and the priestess .
“Really, you must have been frightened . But it’s alright . I will try to do sothing about this . ” (priestess)
The priestess who had encouraged seems like a good-natured person .
“Thank you . Has Lady Priestess been confined in here longer than ?” (Amy)
“…around 2 days has passed . ” (priestess)
I heard that they provided her three als everyday . I doubt that they will give the sa treatnt to .
Well, there won’t be ti to take a al when the problem would be solved anyway .
“Was anything done to you by them?” (Amy)
Since it’s necessary to get information about the purpose of the evil god, I had ca here to this place .
“That’s, I don’t know anything . They only carried in my als when I was confined here . ” (priestess)
Even if I talked to the guard outside, it didn’t seem like I’ll get an answer .
For what purpose have they kidnapped the priestess?
[Amy, art thou fine?] (Zir)
Zir spoke through the whisper ghost .
“Zir? Has the attack started?” (Amy)
“Yea, the elites of mine clan hast already begun to attack . If ti permits I would not mind if thou wast to rage ‘round . ” (Zir)
Raging around, I didn’t expect for her to instruct to do that .
“The priestess has been caught together with . I don’t want to do anything flashy . ” (Amy)
“Is that so, then I wilt send soone to et thee . ” (Zir)
“Please . ” (Amy)
Fuu, the priestess was looking at as I took a breath .
“Just now, who were you talking to?” (priestess)
“Um, it’s my companion coming to help us . ” (Amy)
“Is that true!?” (priestess)
“Yeah, we’re adventurers . ” (Amy)
“I see, they seem to be excellent comrades . ” (priestess)
“Yes, I’m always being a burden to them though . ” (Amy)
“That’s not true . Because, when you have been caught like this, aren’t they imdiately coming to help?” (priestess)
“I-I guess so . ” (Amy)
“With just this much, I can tell that you’re important to them . ” (priestess)
“Yeah, I guess . ” (Amy)
By the ti we joined with Zir, who was in charge of the pursuit force, we had already finished encircling the hiding place of the evil god followers .
We started to attack not long ago because the arrangent of the goblin force had finished .
We avoided not killing the other party as much as possible . The number of captives had already exceeded ten people .
“Mine lord, Amy seems to has brought ov’r the captured Priestess . ” (Zir)
”Is that so? I don’t really want to be connected with the priestess though . ” (Hibiki)
“Shouldst they beest directed to Velgord’s group?” (Zir)
“No, I’ll go with Ayla . ” (Hibiki)
The vampires are a gray zone for the church . A strong feeling of rejection might occur depending on the person .
“Then, I wilt go as well . They wilt not suspect with this hair . ” (Zir)
“I guess so . Velgord, I’ll leave the command of the pursuit force to you . Get along well with the commander on the goblin side . ” (Hibiki)
“Certainly . ” (Velgord)
The vampires and the goblins who had started living together in the sa village, their relationship was generally good and there was no problem at all .
When I told the vampires that their position when they co to the village would be the sa as those of the goblins, Velgord said “That is too much”, but he consented at once seeing the living conditions of the village .
As expected, you wouldn’t be able to believe it when you saw the hygienic goblins taking a bath almost everyday .
Our goblins have a more cultured life than normal adventurers .
They took three als everyday, and maintain and skillfully create tools .
Recently, there were a lot of goblins who play catch during break ti too .
The vampires were amazed when they saw the goblins who did such entertainnts and enjoyed their daily lives like that .
Many people who had been looking down at the goblins in the beginning, have started to open their minds at once .
Their first joint work together was this siege battle .
As the progress went out smoothly . There was nothing left for to do .
With Zir guiding, we reached the room where Amy was captured .
“Amy, are you alright?” (Hibiki)
“Yes, for master to co all this way to pick up . Thank you very much . ” (Amy)
Amy trotted to my side .
There was also a woman who was looking at in the back of room .
“Are you Amy’s companion?” (priestess)
“Yeah, I am . ” (Hibiki)
“To co this far . You must be very strong . ” (priestess)
“Nope, when we ca here, this place was almost empty . We didn’t chance upon any battles so far on the way here . ” (Hibiki)
I lied to her . There were actually more than 50 evil god believers .
“I wonder if sothing had happened?” (priestess)
“I dunno? Since I just wanted to help Amy, I’m not interested in that other stuff . ” (Hibiki)
Since it was impossible for us to leave the priestess of the church as she was now, I freed her bound arms and sent her back to the church in town .
The morning began to dawn when we returned the priestess to the church .
“I want to give rewards to all of you . ” (priestess)
“It wasn’t a big deal, we really did nothing at all . ” (Hibiki)
I wanted to return quickly and start the interrogation, and before that I wanted to get so sleep for a mont .
“I’m really thankful to you . I’ll absolutely give you rewards on a following date . ” (priestess)
The priestess waved her hands for a long ti .
I did not say anything more and turned and left the place .
“Please leave the interrogation of the evil god believers to us . ” (Velgord)
Velgord volunteered for the interrogation role .
Honestly, I feel relieved because I am so sleepy .
After I left the interrogation to Velgord, I will go to sleep at once .
“Master, umm, thank you . ” (Amy)
Amy once again gave her gratitude to , though it should be who must thank her .
The fact was that I put Amy in danger .
“I’m sorry, I’m sure you were scared being kidnapped, right?” (Hibiki)
“No, I wasn’t scared because I believed that I would be saved . ” (Amy)
Amy happily answered .
A few days later, I had a bad feeling when I heard that the priestess who I helped that day, was looking for us .
