"dusa was spotted along with a Human man!" A man ca in from the outside world reported.
"Finally? Where is she? You guys! Let's go and get her before she escapes again!" Dennis asks and commanded his subordinates simultaneously.
The sa man hesitated for a bit before saying, "Sir, we're sure that she's dusa due to the aura she is emitting, but there's sothing wrong with her…"
Dennis, along with the other three furrowed their brows, confused at why this guy is fidgeting while reporting. "What's wrong?"
He stayed silent for a mont as he's still trying to recall what he just saw, thinking if it's real, "She's dressed in a maid uniform…"
"What…?" Dennis blankly asked. Their minds started running at full capacity trying to guess the monster's intention of doing so.
He knew that it'll hard for them to believe his words because even with the long record of hunting dusa, this has never happened before, "It's true! And most importantly, she isn't wearing a blindfold but a pair of glasses instead!"
" "What!?" " Along with his words, Dennis and Theodore stood up in shock. It's understandable since never in their records dusa revealed her eyes after her first beheading. And, indeed, dusa never revealed it again due to her hate for it and strange reluctance to use it.
Elexa and Petter were also shocked at his revelation but calr compared to the two.
Theodore cald himself and thought for a bit and asks, "What about the man with her? What's up with him?"
"Sir… We don't know anything about him. All we can tell is that dusa seems to follow his directions…"
Theodore, Dennis, and Petter now are making ugly faces. They couldn't imagine soone like dusa would follow soone, a human man at that. It's pretty well known in their clan that dusa, along with her sisters, has abnormal hate for n.
The man has nothing else to report, so he stepped aside to let these young masters think of their next course of action.
After a few minutes, another man entered the space and reported, "I'm here for another report! We wanted to pressure dusa along with the man, but he suddenly changed his appearance and wore a white bone mask with green markings and pressured all of us instead! We judged that even if all of us who are outside goes against him, we wouldn't stand a chance!"
'Where did this guy ca from? What's his goal? Why is he helping that monster? He is pretty strong, alright… But all of those stationed outside are the weakest of the clan. Even I could do sothing like that easily.' Theodore thought to himself and eyed Petter to gauge his reaction. He can tell that he's a bit shock at this developnt, but returned to his normal deanor. But seeing this, Theodore's suspicion grew… Petter is giving him a feeling that he doesn't want to get involved in this, but he's the one you set all of this up, including asking Athena to use this place. Theodore then transferred his sight to Elexa. As he expected, she's still concerned about dusa. Although Elexa is the one closest to him if it's compared to his other cousins, she's also the weirdest as sotis, she would give him a completely different feeling… as if she's a different person from ti to ti.
Shaking the unnecessary thoughts off, Theodore focused on the said man accompanying dusa, "Where are they now?"
"… They are coming straight here."
"Hooh? If that's true, I don't care if dusa's eyes were relieved or so unknown guy is wiping her ass for her, they'll both die here." Dennis looked at Theodore but the latter didn't react to his words, 'Heeh… Your confidence will be your downfall. You all thought that the poison is the only secret of our House? I'll 'accidentally' cut your head along with that monster later.'
After a few seconds, Dennis and Theodore both noticed that Elexa has been strangely quiet. Normally, if Dennis started saying sothing like that in front of her, she'll refute his words imdiately, but they only saw her look of concern while looking at the point where people appear after they are teleported inside.
'Big sister… I wish you luck on saving them… I hope you succeed.' Elexa earnestly thought, ignoring the words of her cousins.
"Dennis! Don't f*ck this up!" From the audience's stand, the old man in the middle of the mbers of the House of Harpe shouted.
Clenching his teeth and fist, Dennis answered, "I won't let you down, father!"
"Theodore! I know you want to get the seat of the Clan Head for our House and late father… But don't risk your life for sothing like this…" Instead of shouting like the old man, the lady from the House of Flight, Theodore's mother sent a telepathic ssage to her son.
"…Got it, mother. I know what to do." Theodore replied the sa way and his expression beca serious. Like Theodore, his mother noticed sothing unusual. They feel that this won't end with just the competition for the Clan Head, though they can't tell where the bad feeling is coming from.
Everyone inside beca busy as they prepare for the incoming monster. After their preparations, they waited for a few minutes before the magic circle coming from the outside lit up. Everyone on the audience's stand drew their weapons and kept quiet, but instead of the anticipated dusa and the unknown man, five balls of paper appeared which put a question mark on everyone's head.
A second later, the balls lit up in white light. Petter and Theodore, with the sharpest instinct in the crowd, yelled, "Get down!!!"
A large explosion that shook the entire space ca. Strangely though, it didn't do any damage beyond a ter of the balls and it just spread a cloud of yellow smoke.
The smoke imdiately spread throughout the arena and the people started cursing. The loudest of them all is Dennis, "*Cough* *Cough* What the f*ck!!! What the hell is this!!! Slls like fart!!!"
The bomb is actually a smoke bomb that spreads nasty sll.
Everyone who can block the sense of sll imdiately did it with the use of magic. But they underestimated the stink bomb, as the nasty slly fart actually went through their barriers and directly assaulted their sense of sll. Even if they physically cover their nose or even if they stopped breathing altogether, they could still sll the strange fart. Truly a horrifying weapon of mass discomfort. The one who made it is a genius without equal, but he used his smarts in such a nasty thing.
Everyone thought that they should evacuate the place as there are no winds to blow away the bad air, but soon after, they noticed that the sll is slowly disappearing along with the yellow smoke. After a few more minutes, it disappeared entirely as if it's all just a bad dream. Although there are still lingering sll, it's a lot better than the saturated sll of doom.
Everyone felt relieved except for four people, Petter, Theodore, Theodore's mother and the cloaked figure in the House of Shield. They all thought that if the enemy is capable of sending sothing like that despite the restrictions on the magic circle, then it's also entirely possible that they could just send a nuke to kill them all without even being able to retaliate. Cold sweat started to flow from their backs.
A few seconds later, the magic circle lit up again and everyone felt scared of another round of stink bombs and prepared to obliterate it with magic before it can even explode.
To their relief, no stick bomb appeared but a man with a white bone mask wearing a black suit along with their target, who is wearing a maid uniform, dusa. They all stared at them blankly until the man spoke up, "Nice to -… Damn! Who the hell just farted!? And this sll? Whoever you are, a suggest you go see a doctor! You're probably constipated for a few years now! Or maybe this is how you welco your guests? Is this a cultural thing? Quite unique… and slly if I were to word it nicely."
Dennis instantly reacted and pulled out his rapier, "You bastard!!!"
The masked man blackened eyes opened wide and said, "So you're the constipated guy. You can die from that you know~."
