Chapter 4 – Infiltration, the religious city Sphereart

It couldn’t be helped, I guess I’d pitch in and help.

“Finn, Iris, you’ll wear this and enter Sphereart together with me.” (Akane)

“Waa, what a pretty necklace! Onee-sama, thank you very much. But, is there something in this necklace?” (Iris)

“It’s a handmade necklace which I made. The skill『Disguise level MAX』is bestowed by the jewels attached to this necklace. Its something superior that can disguise not only your status, but your presence, figure and outward appearance as well.” (Akane)

“Master, this, perhaps, was maybe something put to use from the Galum Gang!” (Finn)

Oh, Finn was skilled, wasn’t she?

“That’s right. But, the magic tool of disguise the Galum Gang had was an imperfect thing. If a slight shock ran into the magic tool itself, it was released immediately. This necklace was improved based on that. If you are wearing it, the face you are Iris will absolutely not be exposed. Call to mind what kind of appearance you want to have. However, your height will remain as is, so be careful.” (Akane)

“Onee-sama, I’ll put it on at once.” (Iris)

When she put on the necklace, Iris closed her eyes, and seemed to be calling to mind the her she wanted to be. A short time later, Iris’s hair changed to pink, and the appearances of her eyes, nose, and mouth changed. If it was this, it hardly would be realized that she was Iris.

“If it’s this, it absolutely won’t be recognized that it is Iris-sama. It’s all right even if appraised by the guard’s crystal ball, right?” (Finn)

“If it’s that, then it’s all right. The skill level is MAX, it won’t be exposed. The Galum Gang were also disguised, and they went through normally. The level of disguise bestowed probably exceeded the appraisal in level.” (Akane)

“But Master, you also had the disguise skill. Furthermore, it’s level MAX.” (Finn)

“When I was trying out various things, it was like that. Of course, I don’t use it for crimes or anything like that. Even if you falsify your status, if you change even your appearance, figure, and presence, you won’t be noticed by anyone even if you show your true self.” (Akane)

“Onee-sama, it won’t be exposed with this, will it? Is the disguising of my status fine with this?” (Iris)

“Master, I disguised myself. Please check.” (Finn)

“It’s all right, you’re cute, same as before disguising, and your status also changed a little. Cause your title and unique skill to disappear, erase either all or one magic skill, and also considerably decrease your basic ability values so there’s no problem. Finn, you don’t need to change your appearance, it’s all right with that.” (Akane)

When Iris’s status was displayed, it was an impression like this.

As one would expect, she was a saint. She was a complete specialized type of holy magic and magical power. The level 10 was probably from subjugating some higher ranking evil tribes in the large forest. However, what I was worried about was that there was no divine protection. I had thought ‘surely there is『goddess Sphere’s divine protection』’, but it was strange? I thought that the people who had divine protection probably were being protected by some kind of thing. That’s why, in Finn’s case, the evil tribes couldn’t approach. But, Iris—the saint of Sphereism—didn’t have that. Wasn’t it strange?

“Iris, your title is only saint, right?” (Akane)

“Yes, that’s right, is there some problem?” (Iris)

“No, there’s no problem.” (Akane)

As I thought, it’s strange, something doesn’t make sense. Then, I wonder why the evil tribes didn’t assassinate Iris. I guess it couldn’t be helped even if I thought about it.

The same as Finn, let’s train Iris.

It seemed Finn had grown since then. Did she memorize wind magic? I thought that since she had used『Whirlwind Cut』some time ago, she probably did. Probably, claw technique skills were linked with magic. She had memorized thunder magic—a superior magic—from the start, so she could use『Whirlwind Cut』. She hadn’t invoked it until now, probably because her magical power had decreased because of the curse.

(By the way, the status of a goblin knight is around 2100 on average, just barely C-class)

“Yup, Iris-sama, you’re cute.” (Finn)

“Ehehe, thank you very much.” (Iris)

“What’s left, is her name.” (Akane)

“Onee-sama, even if it’s Eris, isn’t it no problem?” (Iris)

“It’s fine, but you just changed the ‘I’.” (Akane)¹

“Yes, because I didn’t want to change my name too much.” (Iris)

“Well then, from now on, it’s Eris. Finn, please also address ‘Eris’ without an honorific.” (Akane)

“Fue, address her without an honorific!?” (Finn)

“Naturally. You’re disguised, where is there a child who uses honorifics towards their junior, who is in the same social position as them?” (Akane)

“Princess Finn, please let me call you Finn-ane. I, because I was an orphan, it’s fine with temporarily, so I want to try to calling you it.” (Iris)

“U~, I understand. Eris, please treat me well after this.” (Finn)

“Now that that’s settled, what we must do first is infiltrate Sphereart and gather information. If she’s missing and 3 days have passed, there will also be various movements. Take care to not move carelessly.” (Akane)

Or rather, the one who must move carefully most of all–––was me?

“”Yes!”” (Finn+Iris)

The entrance of Sphereart came into view. The gate was huge. Some time ago, I got on the griffon and tried to do reconnaissance, but like Eris has said, there was a big cathedral in the center of Sphereart, and the city was formed as if to surround it. And, there were gates on all sides to the outermost east, west, south, and north, the entire city was surrounded by walls. However, there was one thing different from what Iris had said. It was the holy magic. The entire city had the holy magic『Creature Leave』applied on it, centering around the cathedral. To maintain magic in this large of a range was impossible with the power of a person. Perhaps they were using a strong magician. This magic reacted to evil power, so let’s cancel the black arts that I was also developing. It’d be unpleasant if I was repelled at the entrance. If I cut off my evil power completely, I could enter normally. Well, I guess that was impossible for genuine evil tribes.

I wonder if Eris knew about this holy magic. Let’s not say it now. But, I could solve one mystery. There was holy magic being applied on the entire city, evil tribes couldn’t enter. So, I guess they manipulated humans, transferred Eris to the big forest with transfer magic, and tried to kill her in there.

And in Sphereart, one thing that could be said was that the security was far more strict than the royal capital. This holy magic hadn’t been applied on the royal capital. I wonder, was there some kind of reason?

“Onee-sama, Finn-ane, I’m getting a little nervous. Can we enter normally?” (Iris)

“It’s all right, Eris doesn’t have a guild card, but if you explain it like how I said earlier, you can enter.” (Akane)

It seemed that our turn had come. Finn and I handed over our guild cards, held our hands out to the crystal ball, and passed safely. In regards to Eris, it was set as ‘in the middle of a journey with her family, they were attacked and her family was killed, but only she survived somehow, and when she became too hungry and collapsed, she was rescued by me’. The guard, while thinking it was unfortunate, let Eris pass.

“It’s a little bad for the guard.” (Iris)

“What are you saying, Eris, isn’t it half-correct? After subjugating the evil tribes, you ate lunch that I made with frightening momentum, didn’t you?” (Akane)

“Ah, that’s because Onee-sama’s lunch was too delicious. Especially the fried chicken, I want to eat it again.” (Iris)

“You understand, Eris! Fried chicken is something superb, isn’t it? If you go to the Possible Roof in the royal capital, you can eat it. Moreover, what Master made isn’t just fried chicken. After a bit longer, I think it will spread to the entire royal capital.” (Finn)

I felt that they were exaggerating quite a lot. Say what you like, it would take around half a year.

“Finn-ane, is it true! Onee-sama, even right now, I want to go to the royal capital.” (Iris)

“You’re deciding it in vain. At least, wait one week. If you do, then I’ll take you.” (Akane)

“One week! I understand. I’ll look forward to it.” (Iris)

Iris was also pleased with fried chicken, huh. Was it because it was a staple menu for a child? If it spread in the royal capital, it would also come to Sphereart soon.

“Then, let’s go to the adventurer’s guild for now.” (Akane)

It was nice that we were able to infiltrate successfully, but how do we move from here?

1. Collect information on the missing Iris event, and understand the current situation

2. Strengthen Finn and Iris

3. Grasp and capture the people manipulated by the evil tribe

4. Subjugate the evil tribe involved

Maybe points like these. The seal of the Evil King was weakening seemingly also in Finn’s case², so I guess the evil tribes are starting to move actively to prepare for that. To the evil tribes, both Finn and Iris were existences that were hindrances.

Well, let’s start gathering information first.
