The monsters that swarmed Ria were nearly tidied up.
Only Aulum remained, as well as that monster that he was riding on.
「…I’ll tell you something good.」
The situation had reversed, and even though it was obvious that we had the upper hand, Aulum’s attitude had not changed at all.
No, he seems to be even more composed than before.
The『Threat Detection』that did not have any reaction up until now was loudly sounding the alarm.
「The flute from just now, even without it, I can still manipulate the monsters. Perhaps that right-hand man-sama did not know about it either, but that flute has two functions. One of them is passing down simple commands to the monsters.」
Aulum laughed ominously, and glanced behind us.
「…the second one is to report the current situation even when at a far distance away.」
A voice that I did not recognize sounded from behind us.
When we turned around, the owner of the voice had already used some method to destroy Ria’s barrier.
There was the sound of glass breaking and the light that enveloped our bodies disappeared.
「I thought that it was unusual for you to ask for help, but how did you get that injury?」
He was a baby-faced young man who had black hair, dark eyes and wore glasses.
His ahoge was swaying, and the hand that he used to push up his glasses was pale.
The sound reverberated clearly.
And from in between his hands, some kind of characters came flying out.
A large number of characters formed a circle, becoming a magic circle.
The characters were something I have never seen before and didn’t look like characters. The various symbols fell into place in no time at all.
The characters were shining brightly, and were extremely beautiful.
In merely a few seconds, the tremendously small magic circles were completed, and Mahiro immediately activated them.
「『Living Doll』」
He poured magic power in the magic circles that were shining bright red and then they flew towards us.
「Dodge them! Amelia!!!」
「Kyaa!!」
I prepared myself, thinking that they were aiming for me, but the magic circles headed towards Amelia.
It was too late when I realized it and yelled out.
Amelia, who came into contact with the magic circles, was blown away and crashed into the wall.
And then, she did not move.
「Sh*t! Amelia!!!」
I ran over to Amelia and pulled her into my arms.
She was bleeding from her head. She was not dead, just unconscious.
However, if she was human, she would’ve been instantly killed.
She had also hit the back of her head, so it would be better to get her looked at by a doctor.
「You bastard!!」
「Ah—, ah—, are you aware of the unpleasant look in your eyes? Even now, you look like you’re about to kill me.」
Hearing those mocking words, I knew that I was losing my cool.
『Master-dono, don’t let him provoke you.』
Yoru who had recovered Ria before I knew it, pacified me.
I clenched my fist.
I wanted to punch him, but I understood that I couldn’t win against this guy.
We needed to escape somehow.
To begin with, Aulum also planned to immediately escape after recovering Amelia.
Though I didn’t let them do so.
「Can we count that Black Cat over there as being on your side now? If not, I’ll be angry.」
Yoru returned to his usual black cat form.
That pair of golden eyes glared at Mahiro.
『I will not return to demon king-sama’s side anymore. Because I am no longer Black Cat, but Yoru.』
