48 – Abduction

Abduction

On the street, Philia walks with a brisk spirit.

When she recollects what happened today, she goes crazy with embarrassment. Because of Sessett’s antics, her mood went strange and it became like she was confessing her love.

It is clear that he does not like Rai. She makes me want to hit her with her fist just by looking at her mean laugh and wrinkles her forehead whenever she does something strange.

She was a philia who had never felt a romantic feeling in her life, but she said that if she liked this feeling, she would probably have ruined the world three times.

But she gave away her sweetness as if in confession.

After that, she was caught by other friends and had to keep listening to her dating stories. She explains that she doesn’t, but the girls who don’t listen to her have already made it a fait accompli.

Yes. It’s not that she’s crazy, it’s that the people around her are crazy.

She is superstitious, but she says that on the day of Seria, there are fairies who scatter her love powder around. Clearly, the academy students who were dazzled by the powder only looked at it with strange eyes.

“That… Lady…”

She denies reality and as she strides forward, her attendant calls cautiously.

“Huh? Oh- I’m sorry, Emma. You can go back to the mansion first. I’ll look around a bit more before I go.”

Pilia has no escort. The central aristocracy, the Serios family, is a political family with no ties to the military. Although there are knights and privates in the family, compared to other military families, it is a new blood, and perhaps the strongest person in the Serios family is Philia.

She attends her academy with only two of her attendants, one managing her mansion and one serving Philia at her academy. Worked in a mansion

Of course, no matter how few soldiers or knights she was, she didn’t even attach her escort to the eldest daughter of the family, which also indicated her position in her family.

Her political family, Serios, doesn’t like her going to her academy and gives her minimal support.

Emma, who had a hard time following her temperament, nodded her head at her words to go back first and headed to her house. Her regular Emma’s body couldn’t handle the stamina of her Philia, so when she left the academy, she often went home first.

Her alone Philia lets out a small sigh and walks down her street. She had nothing to do but needed time to cool her head.

The culprit of this incident, the three-set, has already run away, knowing that it will be a big deal if caught. It was a day when she had a falling lecture, and as soon as the academy was over, she came home quickly.

Philia, who thought she might go to Sesset’s house as it is, calms her bubbling heart and sees her armor displayed in front of her shop.

Philia has been thrilled with her weapons and armor since she was a child. Oddly enough, she was not interested in dolls or dresses that her peers liked, but she was drawn to the graceful curves of her armor and the art of hard metal.

As a result, she became a heretic child who aims to become a knight in a political family, but she has no regrets about Philia.

Her

She likes to wield her sword even when her family opposes her, and the elation that radiates from her battles makes her tremble. As she looks at her well-made armor even now, her dizziness subsides.

While looking at her armor with her happy smile, Philia turns her head at the sense of urgency felt in her alley.

Her stumbling steps and rough breathing reach her ears, and soon a messed-up woman emerges from her alley.

“Please help.”

“What’s going on?”

As the woman collapses, she asks for her help from Philia, who has caught her eye.

“Some strange men are trying to rape my sister! Please, please help me!”

At the words of the woman who shouts as she straightens her torn clothes, Philia immediately follows her into her alley.

The woman runs hurriedly along the complicated alleyways and looks around her while memorizing the path Philia has passed. As she follows the woman into more and more obscure places, Philia looks at her rooftop for a moment before speaking to her woman.

“Aren’t we all here now?”

“……”

At the voice that clearly reveals hostility, the woman turns around in silence.

Philia has already drawn her sword.

“How many people do you think tried to kidnap me?”

Serios, who was deeply involved in politics as a central aristocrat, often visited. The family motto that he always gives back did not come about for nothing. Seriosgar fought a great number of enemies and took the current position.

Among them, there were physical attacks and frequent attempts to kidnap Philia to blackmail her.

“I’ll tell you in advance, my father doesn’t care if I kidnap me. And if I tell you one more thing, most of the guys who tried to kidnap me are dead by my hand.”

As Philia speaks, armed men sneak up on both sides of her alley.

There is nothing to be afraid of with these kinds of people. Scary ones always appear in small numbers or approach without even giving a sign.

As a barrier is placed over the sky that blocks sound and mana through the buildings, Philia asks the person who seems to be the leader of the group.

“Who ordered it this time? Baron Julio? Count Baren? If you want to catch me, can you tell me to spend some money?”

A ruffian man doesn’t answer and gives instructions to his men with a chin. People with sharp weapons fill the narrow alleyways and slowly approach Philia.

They are less skilled than the assassins I met before. No, it’s not about falling, it’s about the level of a third-class mercenary. Besides, there is no need to be restricted to protect anyone this time.

Philia, who had been calculating her escape route, shook her head excitedly saying that she had done a useless thing and covered her magic with her sword.

With the sound of her clanking, the red blade flames and she swings her sword to one side.

She just swings it in the air, but mysteriously, the sparks flowing from the tip of the sword are fixed in space and create a net of fire.

Blocking one of her aisles, Philia immediately turns around to deal with the people behind her.

She shed the sword of the first man who approached and slashed her leg. Philia kicked him and threw him to the one who followed.

She doesn’t stop, and Philia cuts down three people, so those who tried to block her alley and enter hesitate. When they stop moving for a moment, she throws her magic stone on the floor and turns her body.

– Paa Ang

Behind her Philia, her pillar of fire rose up and blocked her alleyway. Philia ran to the other side of her, ran the tip of her sword through the eyes of the blonde man who had managed to cut off her fiery net, and stepped back from her. Fly

“Aagh!”

A man who has lost sight randomly swings his sword, causing all his colleagues to stop moving. In the meantime, Philia puts her sword in and pulls her dagger from her bosom and throws it at her side.

She is hit by daggers that fly like arrows through her crazed companions on one side, and daggers that pierce through pillars of fire on the other.

Having been slashed in half in an instant, the embarrassing boss hears a scream coming through the pillar of fire and shouts.

“Get up, you bastards! A shield! Who has a shield?! Go forward!”

But the boss’ efforts to reorganize her were to no avail as Philia broke through her pillar of fire.

Cleaving through the flames, Philia quickly cuts three of her in front of her and kicks one of them away. Again, her companion becomes a burden, and her sword pierces the neck of the woman whose posture is broken.

“If you can’t keep in line, people should rather interrupt you in such a narrow alley.”

Seeing Philia walking while wiping off her blood from her sword, her leader notices her and grabs her men next to her and throws them at her and runs away.

As if she had expected it, Philia went ahead while slashing it, and chased after her leader.

Philia knocks down the garbage piled up in her alleyway and she tries to throw her dagger at him as he runs away in a hurry, but unfortunately she is blocked by the randomly scattered garbage.

With no dagger left in her hand, Philia chases after her while strengthening her body with her magic.

The boss, who has good fighting skills but is good at escaping, ran away, wandering through alleys like spider webs.

“Don’t come closer!”

“Sa, save me.”

The boss grabs a woman passing by and threatens her with a knife to her neck.

Stopping her steps, Philia analyzes her situation while looking around her with her sword stretched out. No matter how you look at the pale woman’s expression, they are not friends. The tearful girl lying on one side of her appeared to be the woman’s daughter.

“Ahhh! Mom!”

“Sophia! Don’t come! Hold still! Mom, it’s okay! It’s okay…”

“Be quiet!”

Shaking the woman she caught, the leader pointed the point of her sword at Philia and shouted.

“Throw away the sword!”

“……”

Seeing her frightened woman and the crying girl alternately, Philia wordlessly throws her sword at her floor. Her boss tosses her handcuffs towards her Philia, telling her to put them on.

As Philia stays still in her handcuffs blocking her mana, the boss puts a knife to her woman’s neck. It’s too deep to be a mere menace dragon, and the woman’s blood runs down her sword.

“Did you say Sophia? Can you go and get someone to help?”

The boss shouts as Philia tells her girl with a forced smile.

“Don’t talk nonsense! Everyone wants to die?!”

“If you kill that person, you will die too. You will be handcuffed, so just stay still.”

Alerted by glaring at her boss, Philia smiles at her girl again.

“Sofia, I’m going to help her mother. Would you like to go and fetch the adults?”

“……”

With her tears welling up, Sophia nods her head at her frightened face and runs off somewhere. After staring at Sofia’s back for a moment, the leader urgently shouted to Philia.

“It really kills me! Don’t do anything weird and get handcuffed quickly!”

“If you let him go, I’ll kick you.”

The boss puts the knife deeper into the woman instead of answering. More blood flows from the woman’s throat, soaking her clothes as she swallows her breath loudly but cannot make a sound.

Thinking that further negotiations are impossible, Philia frowns at her, then, as if holding back her anger, strikes her on the floor twice with her fist and kicks her in handcuffs.

After Philia felt her mana disappear with the sound of her clicking, her men belatedly rushed behind her. When her situation was reversed, Philia spoke in a calm voice to her boss, who smirked with her delighted smile.

“Let him go because he is handcuffed.”

When her boss hits her philia with her fist, philia doesn’t even move her, only her head turns, then she turns back to where she was and looks at her boss.

“Free me.”

“You’re f*cking, you b*tch.”

When the boss starts beating Philia randomly, her men rush in and stop him.

“Brother, then he will die. I told you not to kill him.”

The leader, who came to his senses at the words of her subordinate, spit on the fallen Philia and told her to take her away. Philia, being taken along with her woman who was being held hostage, looks at her with her messed up face and sends her a reassuring smile.

“Lai! Long time no see! Didn’t you miss me?”

Michelle sees Rai, whom she had a hot night with, and rushes to hug him. As a beast-man, she was unstoppable in expressing affection, and when she saw Michelle rubbing her body in front of the adventurer’s guild in broad daylight, her Cindy frowned at her.

“It’s waving so much that wind blows from its tail. It would be cool to be by your side.”

“Whoops, that’s why I’m so happy.”

“Her sister’s mouth is also going to be torn, so hide it.”

At Cindy’s words, Sierra turns her head away, covering her mouth with her hands.

Cindy, who often spent time with Moura’s adventurer’s party due to her experience exploring dungeons with Rai, became friends with them and even called Sierra her older sister.

Even now, Cindy, who often learns how to use magic from Zeroa, can use the wall-breaking magic Lai taught her twice a day, and thanks to that, her stock price rises tremendously.

She’s only twice a day, but if used well, it dramatically reduces the way she has to go back a long way, so even her high-ranking adventurers’ party seeks her out.

Originally an adventurer, but after retiring and becoming a porter, Kraosa taught Cindy to make use of her experience to make a porter a support role that can support the party even in battle, and her skills and status were gradually improving.

It’s all thanks to Rai, but Cindy, who can’t easily erase the image of a color horse, looks at him with cold eyes.

“Did you come because you wanted to eat something sweet on Seria’s Day?”

“I didn’t really think about it, but if you give it to me, I’ll eat it.”

“Shall we go to bed then? Sweet dew comes out…”

At Michelle’s words, Cindy spits out her drink and chokes. It was too blatant for the naive Cindy to bear.

Sierra was beside her, handing her a handkerchief, but seeing her flushed face, Cindy shook her hand with an awkward smile.

I don’t see how two people can share a man. The naïve Cindy, whose face makes her blush at the mere imagining of her bedtime affair, shakes her head and tries to clear it from her head.

“Then we’ll go first.”

Sierra naturally stands up at Michelle’s words and she joins them. Cindy is left alone with a reddened face.

Today, she has nothing to do because her exploration is over. When she goes back to her house, she wonders if she should stop by her new store, but she looks far away.

A small child was crying alone. As her people stare at her sadly crying, Cindy quickly approaches her and lowers her to her eye level.

“Why? Lost her mother?”

“aaa, Mom, aaah-!”

“It’s okay, it’s okay. Her sister will find her mother.”

When Cindy turns her head to find a nearby patrol or guard, the child says something shocking.

“Mom- Mom to bad people-“

Her crying makes her speechless, but that alone startles Cindy and turns her attention back to her child.

“Bad guy? What’s up?”

“The bad guy… Caught my mother… Whip, mom, an older sister told me to call someone… The older sister with the red knife did that.”

A clumsy explanation, but Cindy gets it right away. As Cindy tries to stand up to find her guard, someone speaks from behind her.

“Where?”

Lai, who she thought had left, was standing behind her before she knew it.

Cindy was startled by the sudden appearance of Rai and stomped her buttock behind her, but he didn’t care and only looked at the girl with a smileless face.
