“Uuh…” (lissa)
Was lissa unable to stand up due to the shock? She slowly falls on her backside by sliding down, while leaning her back against a wall.
Despite being dumbfounded, she produced mumbled groans.
“lissa, you aren’t injured are you?” (Shuuya)
“Hiiii…” (lissa)
When I approach her, she screams.
Oh, shit, her abdon is wet due to the shock…
It doesn’t look like she has an injury, but her state is slightly weird.
“lissa, oi, what’s wrong? … No good, huh? Rollo watch her.” (Shuuya)
“Nya.” (Rollo)
Once the black pantherRollodeen hears my words, she swiftly moves her limbs and draws near to lissa in large strides.
Since it turned dark after the magic lights created by the enemies naturally went out one after the other during that ti, I had to create lights from my ring with its matching triangle on level surfaceTriforce for lissa.
Although lissa has her face looked at by the black catRollo, she’s still in a blank state. I’m worried, but there’s nothing I can do. I will prioritize the interrogation for now.
I move over to the guy who is crawling in order to try escaping with his injured legs.
“Guaaaaa.”
“Oii, how about I stop stepping on you if you talk about what you were asked?” (Shuuya)
“I-I got it it. Please remove your foot.”
I was stepping firmly on the injured part but took my foot off him.
“So, on whose orders did you target ?” (Shuuya)
“… Oze-san and Jane-san.”
Again those nas, huh?
“Those two are leaders of 【Owl’s Fangs】, aren’t they?” (Shuuya)
“Yea, it’s as you say. Oze-san and Jane-san are responsible for 【Demonic Steel-City Holkerbaum】.”
“There’s also a boss who controls the leaders, right?” (Shuuya)
“There is. The boss is President Bill Sokuudo-sama. He should be in the 【Labyrinth City Pelneet】.”
The wire-puller is in Pelneet?
“Did you buy my information from Belgart?” (Shuuya)
“That’s right.”
“I see. Well then, let’s have you tell what amount of information you obtained about ?” (Shuuya)
Did the mber of 【Owl’s Fangs】 resolve himself? His mouth gets going after he nods.
“… In the beginning it started with the unit, which had chased after 【Scales of Gaia】, being annihilated as if they had vanished all of a sudden. … Oze-san knew that there’s no way for the enemy forces, which were missing Strong Arm Deyma, to have such level of spare power. “It’s definitely odd”, is what he said in a strong tone. Similarly Jane-san asked “Was there a master bodyguard who was hired by the enemy?” That was the occasion when we noticed it first.”
From that ti, eh?
【Owl’s FangsThese guys】 apparently still don’t know what happened to the guys who hired Mysty and attacked the caravan.
“And, after obtaining information from the thieves guildhyenas several tis, Jane-san ntioned that you, the spear user, are suspicious. Then, freely using our own information network, we observed you. Jane-san, who confird that you stayed at a high-class inn, had an interview with the boss of Belgart and the matter with the feudal lord, judged that you are no ordinary person. ‘After the all the possibility of you being a bodyguard, who was hired by 【Scales of Gaia】, is high’, she said. That’s why we chased after the back of the spear user after receiving the order to do so.”
He leaked a variety of things.
I haven’t been officially hired by 【Scales of Gaia】 yet though.
Well then, let’s run a little experint…
I concentrate thick mana little-by-little in the magic spear I held in my right hand while controlling the mana minutely… Ripples of mana are visible on the surface of the magic spear.
Those clung to the surface of the violet tal for a mont and the small bloody dirt fell off.
However, what I’m trying to do is sothing else. It’s about gathering and minutely controlling the mana towards the magic dragon gem which looks like a large, blue, clean crystal that is located at the spear’s end.
The deliberate manipulation of mana… made the mana perate into the crystal. At that juncture the the mana makes the crystal’s body glitter with a blue colour and it shines strongly as if it obtained a soul, in the the small circle-like compass which is located in the centre of the crystal’s body. Making an ice spear, just as I have imagined, grow from the tip of that bluely shining crystal body, I ford a broadsword of blue ice which is enveloped by a thin white mist on its surface.
The power of imagination is important.
It has a na like Ice SwordFreeze Sword.
However, my opponents should pay attention the red axe blade of the red spear, which is my standard weapon, in the beginning.
The bottom end of the ice broadsword is said to be retractable and you can call it a hidden bladeIce Claw.
If it’s possible to use it like a gimmick, it will probably be usable for feints.
However, as there are peculiarities in mana control, I have no other choice but getting used to it by practising with it little by little.
“… Ahnn, w-what’s that? Won’t you please save ?”
“… Who knows, I asked about what I wanted to hear. Wouldn’t it be for the best if you prayed to so god?” (Shuuya)
“G-God-shaamaa, heeelpp.”
“Well, such a convenient god— doesn’t exist though!” (Shuuya)
I swing down the magic spear, which has grown the hidden bladeIce Claw, as a farewell gift with an arched smile.
The double-edged blade of ice was absorbed by the chest of the crawling man without any resistance while making a crunching sound.
“Gahaa.”
Once I ceased the release of mana, the hidden bladeIce Claw, which popped out from the bottom end of the magic spear, vanished in an instant. Just the chest wound was left.
Blood spilled from the cut without stopping, and only cold air and the stench of blood wafted about.
Well then— now that it has co to this, it would be better to directly contact 【Scales of Gaia】?
But, that’s for tomorrow and after that.
If I don’t go to the headquarters of Belgart now…
I store away the magic spear while spinning it and look at lissa’s condition.
As she was apparently still ntally slow, she stared blankly into empty space.
Still no good, huh?
If it’s a state of losing your mind for a long ti like this, a simple psychological trauma and stress syndroPTSD seems unlikely… anyway, I will have her return to sanity in a slightly forceful manner.
“lissa, lissa, oi, wake up!” (Shuuya)
“Nya, nya.” (Rollo)
I shook both her shoulders vehently.
Rollo extends her tentacles and joins in shaking her.
“… Y-Ye-Yes…” (lissa)
“Great. Did you co to yourself? Can you stand?” (Shuuya)
“Y-Yeshh. … A, n-no, it looks hopeless…” (lissa)
It seems to be completely hopeless for lissa as her hip has given in and her feet are staggering.
Although she is in a Jovi Jova* stateammonia sll, it can’t be helped. (T/N: じょびじょば – only found Jovi Jova for that one. It’s a J-Pop band that perford cody acts, acted on television and sang songs consisting of 6 people. I think they are famous for their silliness? No idea, I didn’t research them much more than reading the Japanese wiki about them xD)
“Got it. In that case—” (Shuuya)
I hold lissa forcibly in my hands.
I end up holding her in a princess carry.
“A-Au, that’s not allowed—” (lissa)
“Look, it’s alright now. So I wonder if we shall go to Belgart’s headquarters, but… lissa, are you okay with such a pose?” (Shuuya)
“Eh? Eeeh…? T-This is, umm, unpleasant… Sorry. I sll, right? This…” (lissa)
Once she realizes that her lower body part is stained with pee and in a Jovi Jova state, her cheeks are dyed red and she shrinks her body. Is she embarrassed?
“I don’t mind. Shall we return to the inn where I’m staying at for now?” (Shuuya)
“N-No. Ah, my ho is around this neighbourhood. Can you please take there?” (lissa)
“Understood. Please tell the route. Rollo, co.” (Shuuya)
“Nya!” (Rollo)
“Yes.” (lissa)
We are guided through small alleys while being verbally instructed by lissa.
Being carried in my arms, she is sowhat embarrassed.
Most likely she is minding the ammonia sll which stinks with a *phoo*.
Rollo, who goes ahead, turns around and waits for who is carrying lissa who stays small and quiet. She advanced ahead once again swinging her tail when we caught up.
For a while I proceed through alleys according to lissa’s voice while watching Rollo’s appearance from behind.
“Ah, here we are. It isn’t locked.” (lissa)
“Roger.” (Shuuya)
We arrive at lissa’s ho.
It’s a small house which was built with a wooden frawork in a grid pattern.
I imdiately open the entrance door while holding her in my hands.
“Huh? Onee-chan?”
A girl, who wore a plain one-piece, stood there.
“Ah, Erika, this person is a guest. I got his help. Let’s talk later since we will head inside now, okay?” (lissa)
“Eh? Y-Yea.” (Erika)
Her younger sister? She resembles lissa a lot.
“Shuuya-san, the inner part is that way.” (lissa)
“Aah, okay.” (Shuuya)
Leaving behind her younger sister at the front door, I was led to a small room and we entered it.
Since there are woman-like accessories here and there, this place is probably her room.
While being slightly nervous, I gently put lissa on top of her bed.
“Can you move? Are you alright?” (Shuuya)
“Yes. I’ve cald down for the most part.” (lissa)
Certainly, she appears to be relieved.
Her swollen cheeks look a bit slack.
“That’s how it seems. Is there anything I can help you with?” (Shuuya)
“It’s fine.” (lissa)
“Well, then I will leave the room.” (Shuuya)
“Ah, yes.” (lissa)
Once I exited the room, her younger sister ca to see .
“Ah, hello.” (Shuuya)
“Yes, good evening.” (Erika)
“Your elder sister is inside her room.” (Shuuya)
“Yes, looks like it. Are you by any chance onee-chan’s boyfriend?” (Erika)
“Umm, it’s different. I was rejected? That’s the feeling, I guess?” (Shuuya)
“Oh my, is that so?” (Erika)
At that point lissa jumped out from her room after having finished changing.
“E-Erika~ Don’t say odd things to Shuuya-san!” (lissa)
“Ah, Onee-chan. Just now you said that he had helped you though…” (Erika)
“Yes. That’s true. You know about my job, right? Therefore, it’s related to that.” (lissa)
“I see. It’s enough already. Since 【Belgart】’s work is dangerous, it would be best if you stopped it.” (Erika)
“Er, well… there’s no way I can do such thing. Even though I’m experiencing risky ((situations)), there are people who are saved by my information after all.” (lissa)
“… Haa, that’s the usual. Even though I could calm down and feel relieved if you had powerful physical strength…” (Erika)
“Fufu, Erika. Thank you.” (lissa)
Saying that, she hugs her younger sister closely.
“Ah, onee-chan… mmh, does sothing sll like pee?” (Erika)
“Eh? Ah! T-There’s no such thing. You are imagining it.” (lissa)
“Reaally?” (Erika)
“Nya?” (Rollo)
At that point Rollo peeked at our situation from below while looking very interested.
“Waaaaah— How cuteee.” (Erika)
Erika showed an innocent smile, caught Rollo with childish, quick movents and hugged her.
“That cat’s my partner. Her na is Rollodeen. Please call her Rollo.” (Shuuya)
“Hee, Rollo-chan. That’s lovely.” (Erika)
“Nnn, nyanya.” (Rollo)
Rollo ows displeased and escapes Erika’s embrace by twisting around.
She ran away in a dash.
“Aah, Rollo-chan, that’s too soon.” (Erika)
Erika chases after Rollo.
“Fufu, jeez, Erika.” (lissa)
“Ahaha, Rollo has beco desperate.” (Shuuya)
lissa regained her smile.
So ti ago I was worried…
I think there’s so kind of reason for her to leak pee and to be befuddled though.
However it’s a topic that’s difficult to ask…
“… lissa, umm, why did such thing happen so ti ago?” (Shuuya)
“It makes you wonder, doesn’t it? I will explain the reason. Please co inside my room.” (lissa)
My hand was grabbed by her and I was taken into her room.
Having closed the door with both her hands across her back, lissa cast her face down.
From that behaviour and her expression I got an inkling that she’s trying to talk about sothing important.
She lifts her face, puts strength into her eyes by apparently mustering her courage and moves her lips.
“I have… for to have reacted in such a way…” (lissa)
lissa takes off her clothes while while talking with a feeble voice similar to the grazing of a bird’s feather.
Her laying her upper body half bare exposed a certain fact.
Eh…? Ah, that’s how it is?
I comprehended after looking at her upper body half.
There are terrible scars on her chest and one breast was missing.
There was a fake item, in order to pretend it being a breast, embedded into the clothes she took off.
“… It’s because of this injury. In the past I was kidnapped by the religious fanatics Totogudius, 【Apostles of Blood Mark】, and in a ritual of sacrifice… I was told that it was for the sake of the King of the 10-Layered Hell, Totogudius, and my chest was pried open to steal my heart. I was rescued by the boss of a thieves guild in the middle of that ceremony. My life was saved with healing magic, but since then—” (lissa)
I didn’t want to make her talk to the end.
I pick up the clothes which fell to the ground, place them on lissa’s body and hug her over her clothes.
“I got it, thus wear these clothes.” (Shuuya)
“Y-Yes.” (lissa)
lissa, who was hugged by , returned the embrace by burying her face in my violet armour and placing her arms around my waist.
“… However, bit-by-bit, please let talk to the end while staying like this.” (lissa)
“Okay.”
“Since my life was saved by magic, I’m absolutely bad with seeing blood and being approached by n. I end up feeling excessive dread… being ntally slow and incontinent so ti ago is a consequence of that.” (lissa)
Huh? Just now…
“However, I seem to be mysteriously alright now. I’ve been embraced closely by you like this, Shuuya-san. It looks like it’s fine if it’s you, Shuuya-san… though my chest is throbbing…” (lissa)
Even if she says that, her body is trembling slightly.
Do I make her show courage?
“Are you okay? If you are fine with , I will help you practise hugging whenever you want.” (Shuuya)
“— Really? My chest is…” (lissa)
lissa looks up at while looking insecure.
The boob research society is an infinite garden. It accepts everything.
Despite the sll… let show my courage as well.
“… Idiot, such things don’t matter at all. I will embrace your heart.” (Shuuya)
“Shuuya-san…” (lissa)
Sexual passion dwells inside her eyes.
“lissa…” (Shuuya)
Our gazes turned towards each other’s lips. I naturally lift up lissa and steal her charming upper lips while indulging in the gap that’s located on the surface of her soft lips.
/infinitenoveltranslations/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/146.png
Entangling and overlapping out tongues, we exchange saliva… of course I hugged lissa’s body closely.
“— It hurts.” (lissa)
Damn! I got too excited.
I separate my face in a hurry. A thread of saliva is drawn from both our mouths.
“S-Sorry.” (Shuuya)
While apologizing, I lower her, whom I held tightly to lift her up, to the ground and separate from her.
“Fufu, it’s fine. Please hug gently this ti…” (lissa)
“Yea.” (Shuuya)
At such good ti—
“Onee-chan~, what about our guest?” (Erika)
“Aua!” (Shuuya)
*startle*… which reminds , there was a younger sister.
“Erika~, wait over there.” (lissa)
lissa puts on her clothes in a hurry to keep up her appearance.
Once she wore her clothes, she opens the door after sending a lovely wink and revealing a smile towards .
Behind the door was the cock-blocking* Erika who held Rollo in her chest. (T/N: originally hindering/nuisance/obstacle as verb but I consider my term more appropriate in this situation)
“Ehehe, I caught Rollo-chan~” (Erika)
Rollo looks completely exhausted with her whiskers hanging down and her red eyes being dilated.
“I see. Good work, Erika-chan.” (Shuuya)
Saying that, I grabbed Rollo at the scruff of her neck and placed her on top of my shoulder.
Was Rollo finally liberated? While completely exhausted, she dives inside my hood.
“Dear guest, your na is Shuuya-san?” (Erika)
“That’s right, please take care of , cute Erika-chan.” (Shuuya)
“Yes, best regards.” (Erika)
“Erika, it’s not allowed to bully Rollo-chan? As a matter of fact she is a very powerful familiar.” (lissa)
“Eeeh? Really?” (Erika)
“Correct. And I’m an adventurer.” (Shuuya)
“Hee, an adventurer, huh? Shuuya-san, you give off the feeling of being strong. How cool—” (Erika)
Saying that, Erika ca to cling to .
N, ooh, this child has a splendid chest. Erika-kun! You are great. You sll nicely too!
“Oh my, what a delighted expression…” (lissa)
It was a dry voice.
“Haha… guess so.” (Shuuya)
I smile while pretending to be calm. And I looked at the owner of the dry voice.
— Hiiya, chilled air is drifting about where lissa stands.
Although she’s smiling, she has an expression that doesn’t smile.
“Shuuya-san, just now you told that you will hug whenever I want to, but are you actually hugging whoever?” (lissa)
“No, this now is sothing inevitable.” (Shuuya)
“Hu~mph.” (lissa)
“Huuuh? Fufu, onee-chan, are you angry?” (Erika)
Since lissa has puffed up her cheeks to so extent, it’s completely obvious.
“I-I’m not particularly a-angry.” (lissa)
The younger sister Erika is revealing a sowhat triumphant look…
“Is that sooo? I wondered whether you might be jealous.” (Erika)
Uhaa, though it’s sohow hot, the looks of the elder sister and the younger sister are clashing against each other.
Let’s do a follow-up at this point.
“Heey, it’s almost night. Wouldn’t it be better for the two of you to go sleep?” (Shuuya)
“Ah, yea. That’s right.” (Erika)
Erika separates from obediently like a child.
“Erika, go back to your own room.” (lissa)
“Yea. Shuuya-san, will you co with ?” (Erika)
Erika tempted by switching from the expression of a child to that of a woman.
“Hey! Erika, don’t get cocky!! That’s not allowed.” (lissa)
“Hehe, I understand. I will go to my room~” (Erika)
Erika skips towards the neighbouring room after sticking out her tongue.
“Haha, a lively younger sister, isn’t she?” (Shuuya)
“Eeh? Yes, indeed.” (lissa)
lissa nods with a smile.
… However, I ended up involving this woman who is able to enchant soone with her beautiful smile.
If I recall it now, I did sothing horrible at the beginning.
If I don’t apologize…
“lissa, I must apologize. I’m very sorry.” (Shuuya)
“Huh? What’s it all of a sudden?” (lissa)
“It’s from the ti we first t. When we exchanged information, I took out a weapon and scared you by getting close to you, lissa. I’m sorry, okay?” (Shuuya)
I beca engrossed in the bargaining to extract information.
Were her eyes wet or wasn’t she just close to crying completely…? I want to hit the from that ti.
“… Aah, it’s about that ti? Well, I don’t mind it. It’s fine. Like this I was saved in “various” ways. … Danger is an unavoidable part of working for Belgart.” (lissa)
lissa swings her slender hand left and right. Good grief, she was able to reply with “I don’t mind it” while smiling.
“You being able to say that makes happy, but there’s also the matter of having dragged you into a dispute between dark guilds, lissa.” (Shuuya)
“It can’t be helped. I’ve told you many tis, but it’s my “job.” However, saying such thing, am I in the wrong? After all it’s “” who spread your information through Belgart in the beginning.” (lissa)
She, who scowls and produces a stern expression, decides to show a self-satisfied look.
In the end she smiled pleasantly though.
“Haha, that’s true as well. In that case we are of equal status in this regard?” (Shuuya)
“Fufu, seems so, doesn’t it?” (lissa)
“However, it’s probably for the best to inform your boss Dino-san about you being attacked, right? Besides, if you befriend , it will result in you being targeted by 【Owl’s Fangs】.” (Shuuya)
lissa nods ekly and ponders about it.
“… Yes, I will report it tomorrow. Certainly, your information can’t be distributed carelessly anymore, Shuuya-san. If it’s about the annihilation of a 【Owl’s Fangs】 unit, we can circulate it though.” (lissa)
“If you do such thing, won’t 【Belgart】 itself end up getting dragged into the dispute?” (Shuuya)
“I think this much is alright. If 【Belgart】’s headquarters got attacked, the personnel would go into dormancy while hiding. Above all, there are also other dark guilds who are fighting against 【Owl’s Fangs】. Not to ntion that if they attack 【Belgart】 which isn’t a dark guild, they will just create enemies and get entangled in various complicated situations, and that will cause their own reputation to take a hit.” (lissa)
The possibility of Belgart being attacked is low, huh?
“I see. I feel slightly relieved.” (Shuuya)
“Oh, did you worry about ?” (lissa)
“That’s natural, isn’t it…?” (Shuuya)
I answered while scratching my cheek with a finger.
“— Thank you.” (lissa)
While stating words of gratitude, lissa suddenly beca bright with this and ca to cling at to so extent.
The soft touch of a woman is sohow transmitted even through the violet armour.
… I want to enjoy the sensation, but since I want to get in touch with 【Scales of Gaia】 who is hostile towards 【Owl’s Fangs】, I need information.
“lissa, I need a few bits of information.” (Shuuya)
“Eeh, yes. What is it?” (lissa)
lissa asks with upturned eyes while clinging to .
“Do you know the location of the office of 【Scales of Gaia】, their current headquarters?” (Shuuya)
“Yes. I know of it.” (lissa)
“Please tell .” (Shuuya)
“Understood. Please wait a mont. I will draw a map on a leather cloth.” (lissa)
lissa removes the hand which hugged and sits down at a desk located in the living room.
I had her roughly draw the location where 【Scales of Gaia】’ store happens to be.
“Thanks for the map. It’s at the end of a backstreet off the central main street, eh? The last turf in the shopping district’s sphere which keeps being protected by 【Scales of Gaia】.” (Shuuya)
“Yes. You are going to head towards 【Scales of Gaia】, aren’t you?” (lissa)
“Yea, just a bit ago I saved a “beautiful woman” and a “middle-aged, grim man.”” (Shuuya)
“Those are “Mia of the Fireball” and “Victor the Hamr?”” (lissa)
lissa’s look completely shifted into work mode.
Her thin eyebrows are tensely slanted upwards and her blue eyes are shining sharply.
As expected of 【Belgart】, her conjecture is fast.
However, speaking of a beauty, she imdiately corresponds to it, doesn’t she?
“… As expected, you know them?” (Shuuya)
“That’s only natural.” (lissa)
lissa starts to speak while putting her slender hands against her hip.
“I won’t ask you what you are going to do. However, I’m certain that I’m participating in the turning of a new page for the underworld of this 【Holkerbaum】.” (lissa)
“… Haha, it ain’t sothing that grandiose. Well then, it’s already late in the night. I will go back soon.” (Shuuya)
“Eh? Ah, i-is it wrong for you to s-stay over today?” (lissa)
Honestly, I want to stay with her, but isn’t her younger sister…
After embracing lissa, who cast her eyes down looking embarrassed, I whispered closely into her ears,
“Next ti I will turn into a wolf.” (Shuuya)
“— Ah, yes.” (lissa)
lissa has a red face.
I separated from lissa leaving behind a slight after-taste of my breath.
“Well then, it will be fine if you can guide to the headquarters of Belgart tomorrow morning. If you are busy, I will patiently wait in my high-class inn while nominating you.” (Shuuya)
“Okay, as long as my work isn’t hectic, I will head over there once it’s morning.” (lissa)
I exit through the entrance door.
“Then, see you tomorrow—” (Shuuya)
In the middle of saying that, I was once again hugged closely by lissa.
“Really, thank you very much for today.” (lissa)
Although it’s through my back, her feelings are properly conveyed.
“Ah, I told you it’s fine.” (Shuuya)
“Nya!” (Rollo)
It seems Rollo gives an answer after making an appearance from within the hood.
“Rollo-chan, you as well, thank you.” (lissa)
“N, nyanya.” (Rollo)
At that point I reluctantly bid farewell to lissa.
I follow the path leading back to the high-class inn.
However, although it’s fine that I left the house of the attractive lissa… I end up getting lost in the alleys even after using . I try going back and forth on small paths.
At last I arrived at the high-class inn right at midnight in such manner and I was able to return to my room.
