âIt is true that I am surprised that Gagan is dead, but I can always use the human prince Nazar. When I look at it that way, itâs not so badâŠâ
ââŠDo you think I will fall into your hands so easily?â
Men and succubi were a bad combination. And when your opponent was âCarrot of the Hissing Voiceâ, you could count on one hand the number of times you could winâŠ
âYouâre going down. Thereâs not a man on whom my âcharmâ wonât workâŠâ
Carrotâs gaze intensified. At the same time, the Solar Treasure Sword in Nazarâs hand became brighter. At the same time, the jewelry around Nazarâs neck, his shoes, and his bracelets also began to glow. Carrotâs red light was repelled.
âHow much sturdy equipment did you bring? You are very well prepared.â
âI thought there might be a situation like thisâŠâ
Nazar didnât let go of his sword despite his desperation. If Carrot tried to get close enough to strengthen her charm, or if she tried to sneak past him and head for the exit, he would use all his strength to unleash a deadly slash. Carrot had no confidence that she could dodge the blow he was ready to counter with. If it were up to her, the prince would have died in the war long ago.
But Nazar could not move enough to strike a blow himself. Time passed in a fraction of a second.
âWeâre in a stalemate. Thatâs a problem.â
There was no impatience in Nazarâs face as he said this. He wasnât worried about Silviana being killed, but if the situation continued like this, the people in the palace would eventually find out about the anomaly. There were several people with good instincts today, and Thunder Sonia was one of them. She was Carrotâs natural enemy. In the war, he even heard that Thunder Sonia had won every battle in which she faced Carrot directly. If he could buy time, victory would be assured. With that in mind, he vowed to wait.
âI see, youâre thinking that if you buy some time, Thunder Sonia and the others will notice and come to support you,â Carrot chuckled. âBut that doesnât mean that the next one who comes along will be on your side, you know?â
The moment after Carrot said this, Errol noticed a presence approaching from behind. A powerful presence. With every step they took, the fear grew stronger, as if a predator a dozen times his size was approaching. A step, and then another, and another. They were not slow at all. They were light and fast, as if they couldnât wait to attack their prey.
The tension grew, whether he liked it or not. Everyone present, except Silviana, recognized the sound of those footsteps, their presence. And that presence now showed its faceâŠ
âAh, Mister, here she is!â
And then a fairy appeared. For a moment he was distracted. So it was just a fairy, he thought.
But the next moment, everyone was attentive again. Everyone present knew the fairy. Whenever this fairy appeared as a scout, this person also appeared. Sometimes the fairy was so easy to catch that she was called âZell, the baitâ. And if you took the bait, he would always appear.
âYouâre right.â
Slowly he appeared. Green skin, small for an Orc, but with a muscular body. His body was wrapped in the formal attire of the beastmen, and he didnât carry his trademark greatsword, but he still had the air of an overwhelmingly strong man.
Bash, the orc hero.
âYouâve got to be kidding⊠were you in on it too?â
Errolâs mutterings were accompanied by cold sweat.
