Reborn as the Hero’s Daughter! Time to Become the Hero Once More! Chapter 246

Gideon collapsed before my eyes.

Blood kept endlessly gushing from underneath him, and he showed no signs of movents. His chest was still, too, so he was not breathing at all.

That said, given who he is I cant be careless.

It was possible that he was holding his breath and pretending to be dead so that I would approach. If he was still alive by chance, it wouldnt be strange for him to devise sothing like that now that the situation had turned on him. I thrust a spear in him from afar to see the reaction, but again, he remained still.

So hes really dead, huh. Making so vigilant You really were sothing.

I felt strangely sentintal towards this formidable enemy, but I had no ti to get lost in that. Klein had jumped from the window and was planning to escape. Naturally, Maxwell could sense his movents so him actually escaping was close to impossible.

Besides, we were quite loud earlier during the fight. It was quite possible that the remains of their group would co rushing here. There should still have been five more people here.

Now then, lets find this taxation docunt

Anyway, I decided to leave Kleins matter to Maxwell. Our goals were the docunt and his life. I currently couldnt afford to do both. In that case, I had to at least accomplish what was possible for .

I promptly dragged my sore body and began searching the house. People like him had a habit of storing important things where they could be easily retrieved from.

That was so they could escape at a monts notice. Villains tended to prefer living in higher places, but this guy chose his room on the first floor. This too was probably so he could jump from the window to escape imdiately.

Even back when I broke into Count Tarkashires mansion, he was positioned right next to the escape path and imdiately fled when I appeared. He was careful enough to constantly plan his escape path. Perhaps this careful nature of his was the origin of his son, Donovans excellence.

He failed to escape with his important certificate this ti because I wounded his right hand in advance.

As I rummaged through the drawers of the office desk, as expected, I found a scroll resembling a tax certificate in the easily reachable topmost drawer.

The wax seal on it had the crest representing the royalty of Raum. It was similar to the one Maxwell used from ti to ti.

So this is it

Good grief, letting the main target get away You sure have beco blunt, Reid Reid!?

Just then, Maxwell peeked his face from the window. I couldnt accurately tell since he was outside, but he seed to be carrying a man in his hands. He probably secured Klein during his flight.

After seeing in a bloody state, his carefree voice was replaced by that of fright.

Ah, sorry, I ended up bumping heads with quite a troubleso man.

I do not mind that, but those injuries

He usually observed my state through his familiar, but doing that ant you wouldnt be able to observe things with your own eyes. Since he was hurrying to my side, he probably cut away the shared senses with the familiar. Given how surprised he was, that assumption was probably correct.

Yeah, he gave quite an embarrassing defeat. No, I suppose I should say that he was well worth the injuries I have suffered.

Good heavens, for you to praise soone so much.

He wasnt Mateus master for show.

His expression got warped when he saw my appearance, but I couldnt bla him. Gideon was soone I couldnt beat even with the muscle strengthening on top of the thread strengthening from the outside, and instead had to take him down by a surprise attack.

Given his strength, he wasnt quite on the level of the past or Lyell, but still close to that.

Thanks to that my body is completely wrecked now. Id be grateful if you start healing fast.

You ask that, however, I am not as good at it as Maria.

I should be in a better state compared to Priscilla, so hurry up, will you?

Even as I was talking with Maxwell, my knees were starting to give in, making it impossible for to keep standing. As I plopped down on the floor, Maxwell hurriedly cast healing magic on .

It was not as effective as Marias, but my wounds started to slowly heal. The hole in my shoulder, as well as the one in my side, proceeded to close up.

As I was observing the changes in my wounds, I suddenly noticed the way I was sitting. I was in a girly sitting position, with my butt down and heels on either side of it. It seems I had grown used to even sitting like this.

My magic would not be able to bring back the blood you have lost. For that we need Regeneration.

As he said, my eyes werent even able to focus properly as I sat down. We had to deal with Klein and then leave the mansion, so if I lost my consciousness now I would end up being dead weight.

I managed to hold on by a hairs breadth because he quickly understood my condition and cast healing magic.

Sorry, I ended up dragging your feet

You fought against a man considered to be master of Mateus, so it was natural. I shall handle the rest so you just stay still.

I cant be any more pathetic

If I still had my old body, it wouldnt have ended up being such a difficult fight. Gideon was indeed faster than Mateus, but still not quite as fast as the old . With Reids body, I would have easily overwheld him in terms of speed, while also not making any blunders that would result in a heavy injury.

How do you plan to deal with things after this?

If I leave this mansion be, Cortina would eventually sniff it out, would she not? Thus, I am considering blowing him up along with the mansion. Fortunately, we are outside of the residential area.

In that case, where was the need to sneak inside

If you had not done that, we could not have recovered the taxation docunt. Not to ntion, we were not sure whether Klein was inside or not.

I suppose you have a point.

For Maxwells purposes, Klein had to be considered missing, not dead. As such, it wasnt a bad plan to blow him up with this entire mansion so there would be nothing of his corpse left.

S-Sorry Thanks

Once he finished with the healing, I tried to stand up but my limbs trembled and I couldnt put power into my legs. Thus, I once again plopped down. It seed I was missing too much blood, after all.

Do not push yourself. You need to rest for so ti. Even Priscilla could not move properly for days.

With those words, Maxwell picked up and soared up with Flight. I could hear loud noises from the door, but Maxwell cast a Magic on it too. The spell locked the door very firmly, so it didnt even budge.

His dual use of spells as he fluttered into the air was quite impressive, to say the least.

Whats that?

It is a spell called Hard Lock. It makes the entire door harder than iron, so one cannot tear it down.

Oh Then, what about that side wall?

Hmm?

Right as I pointed it out, soone thrust a sword through that wall. Unlike the marbled floor, the walls werent so hard it seems.

This is not good!

Exclaiming, Maxwell dropped off the tied-up and fainted Klein, and flew from the window while carrying .

That night, a teorite fell on the outskirts of Geeze Unions capital. Fortunately, it did not hit the capital itself, however, it blasted away one mansion situated on a small peninsula.

As that mansion belonged to a slave rchant that got in the way of the local public order, the citizens were apparently relieved about it.
