Reborn as the Hero’s Daughter! Time to Become the Hero Once More! Chapter 343

I headed right to Maxwell and reported what just happened. When he heard that, he started frowning.

An enemy pretending to be Reid, huh. It seems yet another oddball has shown up

He probably saw going in and out of Cortinas house and disguised himself as . He sounded quite young.

Maxwell was aware of how dangerous this situation was. He knew , so he knew to be vigilant of that enemy, but Cortina didnt, so she might drop her guard and co into contact with the enemy pretending to be .

Was it such a perfect disguise?

Yeah, I can guarantee it. Even I might not tell it apart.

Do you know if they used magic to disguise themselves?

Magic I didnt consider that.

When I exchanged blows with him, I felt an uncomfortable feeling over and over. When I thought I had him for sure, he managed to escape.

If he was disguised similarly to how I did with the illusion ring, him escaping my attacks could be explained by the stature differences.

Still It doesnt feel right sohow.

Are you saying it wasnt an illusion?

The thread I swung at him at the end managed to land on him even if it felt a bit dull. But that part bothers .

Does sothing not feel right?

There was a reaction. But it was not the feeling of cutting flesh..

Hearing my impression, Maxwell started pondering while brushing his beard.

There are several possibilities. One is that the enemy wasnt a human.

aning?

For example, they were using a familiar.

Ive never heard of a humanoid familiar.

I did not say they used it directly. They might have cast an illusion on it.

Oh?

I pondered about Maxwells opinion. Since it didnt feel like flesh, it must have been sothing else.

For example If it was sothing with long fur, like a longhair rabbit or sothing, then even if I slashed at its fur, it wouldnt feel like cutting flesh.

And the cut fur would return to dust once it separated from the familiars body, so there would be no evidence left.

That certainly sounds consistent But sothing still feels off.

Oh? And what would it be?

He bent back to dodge my katana slash. Such reaction speed should be impossible for a familiar.

Hmm, then what if it was a golem? The reaction speed rises and there is a way to transfer your vision to a golem.

It still feels off even if it was a golem. There was no awkwardness in his movents thats characteristic of golems. He also had an acid shooting gimmick.

I see. Well, we will not arrive at an answer if we just argue here. We are simply trying to deduce it, after all.

Then Maxwell told the events that transpired in the north. That there was soone who had disguised perfectly in a magic perception area and destroyed the ans of contact.

It overlapped with my incident.

A disguise thats not magic, huh They seem to have gone to Michelles house to gather information too, if we are all careful, Cortina would be too.

But in that case, there would be no way to tell you apart from them.

That sucks. Isnt there so way?

Stop throwing all your problems my way. That said, hmm Reid, did that man have any sll?

Sll? Co to think of it, he didnt have a particular sll.

They may mimic your outer appearance whatever you do. However, what if you cover yourself with a characteristic sll?

Well, what sll would make it know that its . I dont have any idea.

Perfu might be a good asure, but an average one would just get mimicked. If I were to do it, I had to use sothing characteristic that cannot be imitated.

I couldnt think of anything like that. Maxwell was thinking hard too, apparently also out of ideas.

I do have several expensive perfus However, they are not sothing that cannot be imitated.

I retorted in anger, but that guy had gotten married before . In that sense, he may have been more resourceful than .

Having said that, he didnt seem to be the type to be interested in perfu, so there was no point consulting him.

GadiusIs out of the question.

He might be able to tell the sll of alcohol apart.

I guess its better to consult girls about this stuff. Do you think Maria or Cortina will have any good ideas?

I have little hope about it. A unique sll is essential. There would be no end if we go about it by ourselves. We need to ask external collaborators for help.

External Do you have soone in mind?

I am talking about the usual personage.

There was one person that Maxwell would refer to politely as personage. And that persons knowledge knew no bounds even from my perspective.

Aste, huh. Right, he might have an idea.

Indeed. I would like to head there right away, do you have ti now?

It was close to evening now. Maxwell could use Portal Gate so we could easily make it back before dinnerti.

Yeah, should be fine. We are in a race against ti now.

I managed to drive him away today, so I dont think hed start anything the very sa day. But I wasnt sure about tomorrow. If possible, I wanted to finish all preparations by today.

Wedo not need preparations I suppose. Speed is more important this ti. Let us go.

Wait, are we leaving right away?

Mateus is on the lookout so there is no one in this mansion now. I only need to lock up.

Go do it then?

I can lock everything with magic in one go.

Damn, what a pointlessly useless trick.

He was probably using the wide-scale Lock spell on the entire house. As I thought, he started chanting before and put so much magic power into the spell you wouldnt think he was casting re Lock.

He instantly locked the entire house and opened up the Portal Gate.

I was thinking that he was using his magic power wastefully, but he probably didnt even feel any burden from it.

Thus, I jumped into the gate and headed to the Sword Kingdom of Alecmarle.
