The eastern side of the capitals middle layer has beco a big battlefield between the adventurers and the enemy.
Magic and arrows are flying all over and the sound of swords clashing can be heard from everywhere.
We are currently stuck on that battlefield.
It seems we wont be getting anywhere soon huh.
We are abandoning our horses! Everyone gets off!
Judging that it is impossible for us to get through this place on horseback, he issued the command to ditch the horses.
A wise decision.
The battle is in the adventurers favor. The reason being the enemys chain of command was disturbed and the battle is now relying on individual power and judgnt. This makes so much difference to the battle because this is how adventurers normally operate in the first place.
To combat monsters unpredictable nature, adventurers are required to always think and choose the appropriate response.
For them, the confused soldiers arent even worth being considered an enemy.
The fact that they didnt overwhelm the rebels by now is simply because of the enemys large number.
The enemy probably stationed a lot of soldiers in the middle layer in the first place.
When I thought so, a sharp voice suddenly echoed.
INCOMING!!
A large amount of magic flew toward us who were moving along the edge of the battlefield.
The soldiers of Narbe Ritter managed to dispel or deviate their trajectory with their sword but the blast from the magic impact still remained.
A magic blasted near and Christa. I pushed Christa away in a hurry but the blast blew a little distance away.
Your Highness!!??
That hurtsIm fine. More importantly, get readythey are coming!!
Beyond my line of sight appeared Zandra, who is burning with anger, leading a group of mages toward us.
Her appearance truly befitted that of a witch.
The adventurers that possess an excellent sense of crisis ended up opening the way for her.
They probably judged that it would be best to not get involved huh.
Good day, Zandra-aneue.
Do I look like I am having a good day?
Oh my? Are you perhaps angry?
Obviously. I want to slaughter you right now.
Oh please, I do feel sorry that I sneaked into your room you know. I wont tell anyone that you have those flashy underwear even though you dont have anyone to show it to okay.
A fireball imdiately flew at .
Lars managed to parry it with his twin swords but a bead of cold sweat ran down his face.
Please keep your provocation in moderation, Your HighnessI might not be able to stop the second one.
Thats no good then..we are running away!
I imdiately turned back and started running as fast as I could.
Magic bolts flew at from behind with trendous speed but the Narbe Ritter managed to sohow block them.
Although I was separated from Christa, the Narbe Ritters that are with her should be able to keep her safe.
Moreover, the one that is in more danger now is .
OOH!? That one almost got !!
Their aim is getting more accurate!!
Larss voice shows that hes desperate.
The number of mages on the battlefield dictates their firepower.
With that firepower concentrated on , its obvious that this is bad.
When I thought so, a wind blade flew toward my neck.
I tried to avoid it by rolling away but the place I rolled into was quite bad.
Its the Dull Prince! Get him!
Tsk!
I tried to avoid rolling into the Narbe Ritters but I ended in front of an enemy soldier instead.
I wanted to avoid their sword but I probably wont make it.
However, the enemy soldier was kicked from the side before he could swing his sword down.
Sorry, thats my childhood friend. Dont be so violent with him alright.
OH! Gai! You ca at a good ti!
Dont yOu CA aT a gOod Ti ! You just lured tons of enemies my way!!
It was Gai who kicked the enemy soldier away.
While he talked to , the enemies spread out and surrounded us. Intending to have Gai protect , I stood up and went behind his back.
My bad but keep safe. My sister is angry at you see.
The hell did you do to her?
It was a bad move ntioning her underwear but it seems I said too much when I said that she has no one to show them off to.
Thats entirely on you then.
You think so after all?
So? What color was it?
I found three you see.
When I was having such a conversion with him, magic flew toward us again.
Gai parried it with his sword but it seems his arms went numb since it was more powerful than he thought.
Ouchit seems shes really pissed at you.
I think she is intending to kill you too. Look, shes glaring at us.
What did you involve in! Seriously!
Its your fault too since you kept asking alright.
Of course I would ask! A man would obviously be curious about a beautys underwear alright! Princess Zandra, you are so beautiful! It even made surprised that you are still single!
SHUT UP! JUST DIE ALREADY!!
Zandras face turns bright red as she hails more and more magic at us.
However, they are not that accurate probably because of her anger. Quantity over quality huh. It would have been fine if you just aim carefully in the first place.
This is bad. Excuse !! Hey adventurers! Lend a hand!!
Lars and the Narbe Ritters cant get to us since they are dealing with the rain of magic from Zandras subordinates.
Gai alone wont be able to protect so I asked the other adventurers for help.
However.
I think that Her Highness Zandra is the most beautiful woman in the Imperial Capital!
too, too!
Maam, I thought that you are beautiful since a long ti ago but now that I can see you up close, you are even more beautiful than the Blau Mowe. Your angry face is also wonderful Maam!
Tsk, these guys are totally unreliable.
The adventurers all praised Zandra because they dont want to fight her.
They probably didnt know that they only added more fuel to her anger.
ALL OF YOU SHOULD JUST DISAPPEAR!!
Saying so, Zandra prepares a large scale magic.
As she said, if we let her, we will all get wiped out together here.
At least I have to get it soplace without people.
When I thought so, I heard a loud voice from the tall building nearby.
I wont let you(Desuwa)!
Please, Mia-san.
Looking there, I found Mia and Finne.
Mia draws her bow to the limit.
She is probably planning to shoot a big one over here huh.
Nice assist. Finne, Mia.
Saying so, I ignored Zandra and started running.
Realizing the gradual concentration of magic power from Mia, Zandra was forced to switch her target.
Then.
If its a contest of power then I will take you on!!
DONT GET IN MY WAY!
Zandras large scale magic and Mias maximum power magic arrow collide.
A white light wrapped the whole battlefield for a mont followed by a big explosion high in the sky.
The blast from the explosion put the whole battlefield to a halt.
After the blast, the battlefield was wrapped in silence.
After all, no one could recover imdiately from the impact from such a blast.
However, there was a man who rushed at without caring about that.
ARNOLD!!!!!!!!!!
Oh, its good to see you wel-
Although he was supposed to be paralyzed by the magic tool I found in Zandras room, Gordon who had already recovered was rushing toward .
As expected, I cant dodge that.
Thats why I gave up and threw the bag containing the Rainbow Celestial Jewels at him.
He probably never expected to throw it at him.
Gordon was surprised and stopped to catch the bag.
You fool! You value your life that much huh!
Fool huhlet return that word straight back to you then.
Saying so, I grinned and urged him to open the bag.
Gordon had a suspicious expression on his face for a mont but he imdiately took the jewels out of the bag.
What?
There were three round objects inside the bag
One is the jewel I found and the other two are the spherical magic tools I found in Zandras room.
Good work, coming so far just for . But unfortunately, you cant activate the Celestial Sphere with only one jewel you know.
Thats impossibleyou should have all three jewels with you!!
I only had one from the start. Thanks for being so trusting and believing everything I said even though you never saw the actual jewels. Thanks to you, I managed to earn precious ti for this side. Oh, also, the other jewels probably arrived at Fathers place by now.
Im, Impossible! If you dont have it then who!!
Who is it I wonder? Maybe, it was soone you overlooked?
I grinned.
While I grin at Gordon, I can hear an astounded voice from behind .
To think that you intentionally focus all eyes in the Imperial Capital to yourself, that was quite a dangerous move you know?
It wouldnt make sense if I alone am not willing to beco a decoy after I made my brother and sister ones right? Besides, I thought that if I hid it inside the castle, Aneue would have a hard ti later. So how was it? I managed to lure them all out here for you right?
Good work. You did well. As expected of my younger brother.
Said Lize-aneue as she slowly appeared behind .
Behind her are the n under her direct command.
Its ti to put down the curtain! Gordon!
Kuh!
Thus the battle in the middle layer of the Imperial Capital shifted from a battle between adventurers and rebel soldiers to a decisive battle between the Imperial Army led by Lize-aneue and the Rebel Army led by Gordon.
