CH 36
We successfully infiltrated the royal capital and scattered to our respective posts. No matter how tightly the gates of the royal capital and royal castle are closed, such protection is completely meaningless for a magician who can transfer.
Speaking of me, I am standing proudly in the square in the centre of the royal capital. Naturally, there are no people out and about. I don’t know if a curfew is in force or if they are shutting themselves up because they feel unsafe, but considering what I’m about to do, I’m grateful that they’re not going outside.
Then again, the buildings I saw last night that were smoking were some of the mansions and shops. I don’t like to think about it, but I’m pretty sure it was a house or a shop where humans lived or operated. Just to be sure, I looked inside the buildings, which were mostly rubble, but there was no sign of people. Were they taken away or did they flee outside the capital? I hope they are safe and sound somewhere.
I looked at Percival, who was standing next to me with a difficult expression on his face. Wearing leather breastplates and gauntlets, and long boots, he seems to have matured quite a bit, probably because he always goes out to subdue magical beasts in this form in the territory. It’s really reliable, but I noticed that the mysterious Kobold doll I gave him as a souvenir is hanging from the splendid sword hanging from his waist. An amulet to ward off evil spirits and repel insects. I was happy to see Percival, who is serious and had a beautiful face like a prince, hanging a strange amulet on his sword. Because it matches the one I have on my wand. I’m sure this amulet will prove its worth on the battlefield. After all, it’s very spooky.
“Well then, it’s time for me to get flashy.”
I draw a number of summoning circles on the ground.
“Orthrus1! Nemean Lion3! Cath Palug4!”
At my summons, a two-headed evil dog, an owl-headed giant bear, a lion with a strong body and a monstrous cat that looks like a small mountain appear. In this way, they all look very evil. They are enough to intimidate. But in fact they are all very good-natured.
“Everyone, I want you to go on a rampage in this square and lure out the soldiers in the city, and give them a good scare. But don’t kill them. But if they attack you, I don’t mind if you hurt them a little.”
After saying that and closing one eye, the four summoned beasts let out a yell and a roar. It is truly a magnificent sight. The summoned beasts who came this time are sturdy and their attack power is astonishingly high. However, beastmen are strong, and soldiers are probably well-trained, so it wouldn’t matter if they were blown away a little.
With this many summoned beasts on the rampage, they could attract the attention of the beastmen soldiers who are scattered and on guard in the royal capital. In the meantime, the Royal Capital Liberation Unit (decided) led by Clawis will search for and liberate the humans being held somewhere. It would be more efficient to leave the search to those who are familiar with the royal capital.
Once the hostages are released, we can then ride into the royal castle and do whatever we want.
“Unisus, and then Cait Sith.”
I called up Unisus, who had just taken care of me last night, and Cait Sith, who had recently been complaining about his errands. This time, I think it’s a request that will satisfy Cait Sith enough.
“Did you call nya!”
“Here’s a request you’ll enjoy today. Can you and Percival catch the beastmen soldiers? If they attack you, you can hurt them, but don’t kill them.’
“Accepted!”
“Percival, move on Unisus. He can avoid bows, arrows and swords very well.’
“All right. Thank you for the ride.”
Percival straddled Unisus, and Cait Sith took the form of a black cat and jumped on Unisus’ head.
“Sapphiras.”
“Mm, what?”
“Don’t push yourself too hard.”
Leaving those words behind, Percival then soars into the sky above the royal capital on Unisus. He looks like a prince on a white horse going to retrieve the princess from the evil chieftain.
I asked Percival to capture the beastmen that I couldn’t capture. The fewer people in the way, the easier it is for Clawis and his men to move.
Soon after I sent Percival off, the beastmen soldiers, who had noticed the commotion, rushed into the square. Even the beastmen soldiers were quite confused by the summoned beasts that had suddenly appeared in the royal capital and were on a rampage. Some of them are even cowering at the mere sight of the summoned beasts.
“Well, well, shall we go and clear them out one by one?’
I transferred behind the beastmen who are trying to defeat the summoned beasts and poked with my wand so that they can’t move, and then bound with sharp thorny vines of briar. The bound beastmen looked up at me with blank stares, as if they had no idea what had just happened.
“If you act violently, I’ll tighten the restraints, so just stay in the corner and be quiet.”
The beastmen soldiers who were tied up were thrown to the corner of the square by a strong wind. If I leave them as they are, they’ll be trampled by the summoned beasts.
The beastmen soldiers cannot react at all to me, who appears and disappears in an instant. It’s a technique that only I can perform.
The phantom beasts that are getting better mowed down the beastmen one after another. I cleverly poked them with my wand as they were blown away and rolled to the ground, and repeatedly restrained them with my thorn vines. After about 20 people were tied up, a man who appeared to be the commander finally appeared.
Why are there magical beasts like this in royal capital? Damn it! Is it the work of the humans?”
Bingo. But he says they’re magical beasts instead of phantom beasts. That’s rude.
The commander gave some sort of instructions, and perhaps their leadership has improved a little, the soldiers’ movements have become more coherent, but that level of thing won’t stop my summoned beasts. On the contrary, they were motivated more and more from feeling the response. The summoned beasts that went on a rampage were truly spectacular. I’ve never summoned four summoned beasts at once, and it might be the first time I’ve seen them rampage so happily.
“That’s amazing……”
Once I withdrew from the battle line, I transferred to the roof of the high clock tower overlooking the square and watched the battle between the summoned beasts and the beastman soldiers for a while. Even I was overwhelmed by the rare sight.
The summoned beasts broke their swords and repelled their arrows. The commander seems to be saying something to boost the morale of the beastmen soldiers, who are afraid of being completely outmatched and are trying to run away, but it seems to have little effect. The battle situation is becoming quite overwhelming, so I decide it’s time to draw the curtain.
“I’m sorry, but could you please stay here for a while?
“Wha!”
Before the commander could turn around, I poked him in the neck with my wand to stop him from moving, and tied him up with my proud thorny vines.
“Y-you, who are you?”
“Me? I’m a mysterious magician who came to retake the royal capital.”
When I threw the captive commander to his comrades who were already tied up, I immediately cleaned up the remaining beastmen.
“I’m sorry, but could you keep an eye on these people to make sure they don’t escape?”
I ask the summoned beasts to keep watch and head off to catch the other beastmen soldiers. If I leave it to them, the beast soldiers won’t be able to escape or report to the royal castle.
As I was looking for the beastmen soldiers, protecting myself with barrier magic just in case, I heard shouting from the end of a narrow alleyway. When I looked into the alley where a voice echoed, I saw two beastmen soldiers kicking the crouching beastman in turn.
“Stop!”
Noticing what the man was crouching down and protecting, I hit the beastmen soldiers with a powerful whirlwind, blowing them away and restraining him with my thorns.
A human girl crawled out from under the man as I rushed over.
“Uncle! Uncle!”
“……Uuuu,”
The girl clings to him with her face messed up with tears, but the man only moans and cannot get up.
“Big brother5! Uncle, help uncle!”
I immediately examined the man’s condition. His face is bruised and swollen beyond recognition. He must have been kicked quite mercilessly. Given the way he’s vomiting blood, it’s possible that his ribs have broken and damaged his lungs. It might be a bad idea to leave this untreated.
This beastman was protecting a human girl at his own risk. If the man ends up dead, the girl may be left with a deep wound in her heart.
“Don’t worry, I will help uncle, will you come with big brother?”
After confirming that the girl nodded, I transferred to the courtyard of the academy with the injured beastman and the girl.
I ran my eyes around to get a nearby student to call Aurora.
“I was sure that if anything happened, you would transfer here.”
