The Falsely Executed Marquis’ Daughter Wants to Live Peacefully with Fluffy God Vol. 3 - Chapter 157 - Katariona Fights her Former Nemesis (

The ballroom was enveloped in a dazzling light.

Screams could be heard from everywhere, as the light was so bright that it was impossible to keep one's eyes open.

Is this...?

An outburst of magical power?

Charlotte's magical power has gone out of control.

"Rio! Rio, are you okay?"

"Leon! I'm safe. Where are you?"

Because I was suddenly hit by an intense light, I did not know where Leon was, but he was not far from .

"I'm safe."

"Leon, where are you?"

I reached out in the direction of the voice, and a warm hand grasped mine firmly.

"I am here."

Groping for Leon's face, I placed my hand on his cheek.

"Can you see Leon?"

"No. I've been caught off guard. But I know where Rio is, even if I can't see you."

Even in the dark, for a god with god's eye, eyesight is irrelevant.

But Charlotte's magic did the damage, albeit physically, to the god's eye.

I invoked Sacred Magic in a whisper and healed Leon's eyes. And at the sa ti, I healed my own eyes as well.

My vision cleared up, and when I saw Leon's face, I let out a relieved breath.

"Leon, I'm so glad you're okay."

After gazing at Leon for a while, I heard a coughing sound.

"You guys. Don't flirt with each other in this ti of ergency!"

Overhead, Tojurou-san was standing with his eyebrows raised and his shoulders furrowed.

"Tojurou-sensei, are you all right? Are your eyes alright?"

"Yes, thanks to this."

He said, dangling a black object in his hand.

"What is it? That."

''It's a pair of glasses with light-shielding lenses."

Tojurou-san was standing next to Kikuno-sama. He was wearing black glasses, which made him look all the more suspicious.

He said they were dark glasses with lenses that blocked out the light.

"Where did you conceal such a thing? No. Should I ask how you got them?"

I would like to ask the sa question as Leon.

"Better to be prepared,' wouldn't you say?"

Kikuno-sama, who was laughing with her hand over her mouth, was a mystery.

The dress should have only enough pockets to hold a handkerchief, even if it is a kimono. ......

However, the mystery was soon solved.

"Kikuno. Do you have my sword with you?"

"Yes. Here."

Kikuno-sama smoothly pulled out Tojurou-san's sword from the pocket of her dress.

「〇！◇▽□＊〇！！！！！」

An inarticulate screech escaped from my mouth.

"Oh? Do you fancy having a sword in your pocket?"

In response to Kikuno-sama, who removed her dark glasses, I nod my head.

'The pocket is a magic bag, you see. I asked Laura to make a custom-made dress."

I see!

That would explain how the sword ca out of the pocket.

But I doubt that any woman in this country would co up with such an idea. Nor would any n.

A magic bag is a valuable magical item. I don't think it's an exaggeration to say that no one would think of using it for a party dress.

"Where's Chris and the Pri Minister old man?"

Tojurou-san glanced around.

I also looked around the venue.

The people in the hall were either moaning, holding their eyes, or had fallen over.

However, so of them were engaged in rescue activities.

They must have barely escaped Charlotte's magical outburst.

"Speaking of which, where is Charlotte!?"

I looked around, but there was no sign of Charlotte.

Did she escape in the confusion?

"Mu-! Rio, the garden!"

Charlotte must have been tracked down by the god's eye. It was Leon who found Charlotte's whereabouts.

"The garden. Oh, no! Not good!"

May is waiting in the gardens.

May is in danger!

I sprinted to the garden.

The garden near the ballroom is not far, but I felt frustrated by the distance I had to run.

"Get on, Rio!"

Leon transford into a lion, running alongside .

I put my hand on his mane and hopped on his back.

"Hold on tight!"

Leon broke a nearby window and spread his wings into the air.

The night garden was brightly lit with magic stones, and I was able to spot Charlotte imdiately.

Nearby was May.

May was sheltered on the back of Ron-sama and Sylphy-sama.

"There she is! Leon, by the fountain!"

"I see her!"

I gripped Leon's mane tightly as he swooped down to the fountain.

"I'm not going to let you! Charlotte!"

Just as the ground approached, I jumped off Leon's back.

Charlotte's big eyes are bloodshot, like a ravenous beast on the prowl.

"Kukkuk! That little girl is the god of creation. Oi! Dragon god tribe. Give the little girl!"

"I refuse!"

Sylphy-sama held May in her arms as if to protect her, and Ron-sama stood in front of Charlotte to protect them both.

"Then I will take her from you by force."

A low male voice.

That voice is not Charlotte's. It is probably speaking through her as the dium.

The one that is speaking is probably the founder of the Campbell family.

"Who will give you my sister!"

Pulling my hairpin out of my hair, I transford it into a small dagger and stabbed Charlotte in the neck with the hilt from mid-air.

While there is no guarantee of fatality if I thrust with all my might, I can knock her out if I am more or less careful.

It is one of the self-defense techniques I learned from my sword master, Tojurou-san.

"Gu--k!"

For a mont, Charlotte held her neck and almost collapsed, but she barely held on.

However, it seems the damage was done. Let's capture her while we still can.

"Plant Magic' Prison of Thorns!"

The thorns surrounded Charlotte's body, weaving a lattice-like prison, trapping her.

"Yurie!"

"Big Sister!"

Sylphy-sama and May rushed over to .

"You're rciless, you know that? One-shot out of the air?"

After the two of them, Ron-sama ca towards us with a grin on his face, as usual.

"My sword master taught to show no rcy to anyone."

I was also taught to finish off my opponents with a frontal attack as much as possible, but I don't intend to follow that rule every single ti. In battle, be flexible. This is Kikuno-sama's teaching.

"Rio!"

Chris ca running from the ballroom, calling my na.

"Chris! Thank God! You're safe."

"Charlotte is ......! Oh? Did you get her already? I didn't have a chance to have at her."

Chris looked at Charlotte, who was locked in a prison of thorns.

"As expected of Yurie. My apprentice is excellent."

Kikuno-sama smiled as she applauded.

"Oi! Yurie is my disciple!"

Tojurou-san shoved at Kikuno-sama.

"She's my disciple too."

Even Ron-sama interrupted.

"Each of you taught differently, but I think I have found good masters."

When I said this, the three masters seed to be taken aback, and they all looked at for a mont, and then smiled.

I was surprised at how easily things had resolved themselves, but if the damage had been kept to a minimum, there was nothing I could have done better.

"This is not the ti to be taking it easy. May. Disable Charlotte's magic."

Leon the lion strode over and urged May to nullify the magic.

"I see. Can you lend your power, big sister?"

As May reached out her hand to , a scream rang out-----

"How dare you!"

With a voice like a roar, the prison of thorns broke.

From the sound of it, she had not been defeated.

Charlotte, who had torn the hem of her dress down to her knees, stood up.

She invoked her own magic, but it has already changed into a distorted form of light magic.

"May! Stand back!"

Sothing jet-black and slimy wrapped around a blade of light ca toward May.

I shielded May with my back, and I tried to counter Charlotte's blade with my magical power.

However, a blade of wind passed by and collided with the blade that Charlotte had released, canceling it out.

Moreover, another blade of wind went toward Charlotte, cutting off the right side of her hair.

''Oh my? I missed. What a sha, I was aiming for her neck."

Big brother walked toward with a sinister smile on his face.

"Big brother!"

"I'm sorry I'm late, Rio. May, are you hurt?"

Big brother picked up May into his arms.

"You!"

Charlotte, whose hair no longer fit for the occasion, glared at my brother, to which he snorted.

"This ti I'm going to cut your head off."

With May in his arms, elder brother once again created a blade of wind.

"Big brother. I don't want to kill her just yet. At least cut the other side of her hair first."

May smiled prettily while saying sothing disturbing.

"You siblings are rciless."

Ron-sama laughed again. And he was laughing so hard he had to hold his stomach.

"You little brat! How dare you taunt !"

Charlotte must have felt that she had been made a fool of. And she created a distorted blade again.

However, the blade that ca toward her was swallowed by space. This was Ron-sama's magic.

"There is going to be damage here. Yurie, we are going to transfer."

"Where are we going to transfer to?"

"Sowhere suitable."

Ron-sama's magic enveloped us. With Charlotte included. ......
