Chapter 23 . 2 : Magic Potion of Love

Rena’s throat is making a low gulping sound .

She has currently removed her hood . Now, I am able to have a better look at her face . A genuine beauty; she should probably be the most beautiful woman I’ve met so far, right?

I couldn’t think anything when I’m alone with this kind of beauty in this kind of atmosphere . I feel more uncomfortable than happy for being so close with this beauty .

The experienced Reiji might be able to do something about it . Oh, I can’t help but think of such things .

Rena is letting out an alluring smile while gazing at me .

That smile is simply foul play .

Though there’s charm magic, I think Rena will be able to charm her opponent without even resorting to that kind of magic .

Rena is looking at me with moist eyes .

「KUROKI」

Rena suddenly blurted out my real name .

EH!? I thought, how do you know my real name?

I’m being pulled by her while I’m pondering about that question .

I couldn’t believe it, but Rena’s extremely beautiful face is right in front of me .

I feel dizzy .

And then, Rena’s red lips overlapped with mine . The smell of liquor enters my nasal cavity .

I could hear the sound of something being broken in my head .

◆The Captain of Temple Knights, Lucullus

「What are you doing!! Hyllus!!」

I ended up shouting those words .

I placed my hand on my mouth .

Raising a loud voice was unbecoming in the holiday villa of hero-sama .

「What’s the matter, lord Lucullus?」

A girl approached me .

「Ah, Chiyuki-sama」

I bow at her .

To this beauty .

Black-haired sage, Chiyuki .

That is her name .

She seems to be a girl at glance . But, this girl has unrivalled magical power compared to those bunch of magicians in the temple in Holy Republic Lenaria .

Even those magician from Saria academy may not be be able to match her magical power .

Maybe because that black-haired sage was just out of the bath, her wet hair looks really s.e.xy .

「The truth is, the people who were investigating the city are yet to return」

「Investigating… . Ahh, about the things we asked, right . We ended up causing you trouble, lord Lucullus」

She then bowed to me . I’m bewildered by her action .

「It’s nothing, that’s the job of temple knights, after all」

I reply so while straightening my posture .

It seems that the hero-sama is looking for a certain person . So we, the temple knights are helping them search for that person .

Hyllus is on the move, since the person they’re looking for can use invisible magic .

While the temple knight Hyllus has his own skill, he is also gifted with ability to gaze through and discover the truth behind invisibility and illusions .

Thought he can’t see through the illusion magic of the fairy dancer, he can still see through high level illusion magic .

That’s why I left the search to him .

But, maybe that was a mistake on my part .

Though his ability is ranked 1~2 amongst the temple knights, he’s p.r.o.ne to cause a commotion . Though his habit is being overlooked due to his ability, that also has its own limit .

Even if the ability of the subordinates chosen by him is quite high, they have problematic behaviors . It’s already way past the time for them to go back .

In the past, they’ve caused trouble for women during their duty, so the same thing might be happening right now .

Though something might have happened to them right now, they would have blown the whistle to inform us in case there was an emergency situation . If they can’t even do that, then they’re disqualified as temple knights .

We can’t decrease the number of guards anymore than this just to search for them . I become more and more vexed just by thinking about that fact .

What should I do when they return?

「Let’s punish them when they return」

「No, it’s our selfish request after all . At the least, please be gentle with their punishment」

Chiyuki-sama is speaking for Hyllus .

Though this black-haired girl is feared due to her ability to use powerful magic, I just recently discovered that she’s actually a kindhearted girl .

「That aside, lord Lucullus . Did you happen to know where Reiji’s going to? 」

「The hero-sama? Though I’m sure that he is secluding himself in his room, I don’t know where he is right now since no one has entered his room after that . Do you want to enter?」

Chiyuki-sama is nodding at my question .

Properly speaking, the targets of protection also included hero-sama, but we can’t do anything if hero-sama can’t do anything .

Chiyuki-sama also won’t be blaming us since she knows clearly about this matter .

「Geez, where did he disappear to…」

She heaves a sigh .

◆Princess of the Rox kingdom, Almina

◆Princess of the Rox kingdom, Almina

「Reiji-sama」

On top of the bed, I bring my face closer to the chest of my beloved person .

There’s an ugly scar running from his right shoulder to his left hip .

There wasn’t such scar when we first met before .

I hate that dark knight who inflicted such a scar upon Reiji, the one hailed as the hero of light .

The wound inflicted by that dark knight seems to have left a scar that won’t disappear even with the healing power of the saint, Sahoko-sama .

How dare that dark knight do this kind of thing to the beloved man of the G.o.ddess-sama . I’m sure that G.o.ddess-sama will bring punishment upon that sinful man . [TL: … . ]

Suddenly, when I’m thinking of such things .

Is G.o.ddess-sama embracing him in this way, too?

Though I’ve never met that G.o.ddess, it seems that sometimes she descends at the Holy Republic Lenaria .

She might have come to meet Reiji-sama .

The man loved by that beautiful G.o.ddess Rena . Is him . [TL: … . ]

Though this might be rude, I feel like I’ve become a G.o.ddess when I’m with him .

My beloved person went down from the bed . Exposing his bare body .

It’s a beautiful body which makes me want to stare at it even more .

But, this is also the end . Since it’s not only limited to G.o.ddess Rena, there are several more beautiful girls around him . I can only enjoy a slight amount of time with him .

「Are you going to leave?」

「Yeah, I should be back soon」

I recall about the black-haired sage from Reiji-sama’s words .

Chiyuki-sama is a beauty and an extremely terrifying person . If our relations.h.i.+p were to get discovered, it’ll be the end for me .

Well, she could easily demolish that firm rampart with her magical power . I’m definitely no different from a pebble when facing against such terrifying magical power . My fear surfaces just by thinking about that event .

Nevertheless, I want to be together with Reiji-sama .

「I see… . 」

I said so with a slightly lonely voice . I want to remain in his memory even just a little .

But my wish was also in vain as Reiji-sama is wearing his clothes now .

「Ah, come to think of it, Almina . I’ll do something about the matter you’re talking about」

Reiji-sama said so while smiling at me .

It was the zombie outbreak matter from last night .

The survivors of Striges might come to exact their revenge on this kingdom .

Since Striges are powerful demons, we decided to borrow Reiji-sama’s power .

This is the request of my fiancee, Rember .

I feel bad for Rember since I have this sort of relations.h.i.+p with Reiji-sama .

Though I don’t hate Rember, I can’t bring myself to see another man ever since I knew Reiji-sama .

Though I don’t hate Rember, I can’t bring myself to see another man ever since I knew Reiji-sama .

「Striges huh… . To think that they managed to survive . I will definitely eradicate them for you, Almina . You have my word」

I feel relieved upon hearing Reiji-sama’s words .

◆Temple knight

「I’ll leave it to you then, Orusan . We’ll go contact the mansion of hero-sama」

「Yeah, leave it to me」

I hear such an exchange from the top of the place I’m lying at .

My body can’t move . When I’m trying to look around, the temple knight who is suffering the same fate as me is also being carried in the same manner .

I heard the voice of the men who carried me till this place .

Why did it become like this? It makes me want to cry .

I can only regret the fact that I didn’t blow the whistle fast enough .

Just who the h.e.l.l was that man we met in the alley?

He seemed like your usual kind person at a glance, but that man’s maneuvers was anything but normal .

I was beaten down without even having any chance to resist .

Though I don’t know what kind of move he used at that time, my body and mouth were already paralyzed .

Still, I feel a dull pain running throughout my body .

I felt that everything is captain Hyllus’s fault .

I hate him .

It’s all because captain Hyllus was unreasonably doing such things .

The man called Hyllus, his ability to court women is unparalleled .

After seeing Sahoko-sama in that kind of attire, we also went to woo women due to captain Hyllus’s invitation .

Then, I recalled Sahoko-sama’s attire . I never thought that a such pure and gentle girl like her would wear such an attire .

I simply can’t forget her figure . It’s still vivid in my memories even when I close my eyes .

Consequently, I’m jealous of the hero who receives love from Sahoko-sama .

I feel healed just by being at her side .

No one but Sahoko-sama can make one feel healed like that .

Any kind of wound will be healed by her, the white saint .

I wonder if I will have the chance to touch her hand .

If so, then I will say my grat.i.tude to that man who made me feel this pain .

Who is that man anyway?

Could it be that he is Sahoko-sama’s target?

I must tell Sahoko-sama about this .

Could it be that he is Sahoko-sama’s target?

I must tell Sahoko-sama about this .

Maybe she’ll praise me for telling her that .

「Kukuku, how’s your body?」

The approaching woman is the owner of this house .

After beaten by that man in the alley, we were brought to the nearby doctor immediately, this woman’s house .

I somehow managed to see the figure of the woman from my lying position .

She is a black woman .

She’s wearing black hood and black clothes to hide her pale face and eyes .

Though I don’t know how she looks like since I almost unable to see her figure, I think she’s quite old based on the way she spoke .

It seems this woman has poor sight . I knew from the story of the men who carried us here that she can’t live in an extremely bright place .

That’s why the room is gloomy, since she closed all the windows in her house . Only a miniscule amount of light from the setting sun managed to enter the room through the gap between the windows .

As you might expect from a doctor, her house is filled with the smell of medicinal plants .

My head is dizzy just by sniffing that odor .

「You guys are the knights protecting that hero, right?」

Then, I felt a dissonance on hearing her words .

The tone of this woman was filled with killing intent .

「Kukuku… . How lucky am I today, for my prey to deliver themselves to me」

Prey? What the h.e.l.l is this woman talking about?

There’s nothing unusual about this woman .

And then, I was agape when that woman untied the cloth that covered her eyes .

Those aren’t the eyes of a human .

Bird… . The eyes of a bird .

The woman’s bird eyes has black pupils surrounded by yellow color where there should be white .

Her eyes s.h.i.+ning with fiery rage aren’t human eyes .

Thus, I noticed a fact .

She is a demon .

「Uuurgh」

My collagues and I are groaning upon seeing her eyes .

「You guys will become my p.a.w.ns」

She starts laughing . Suddenly, I spotted long canines from the gap between her lips .

「To destroy the one who killed my cute daughter, the hero and this kingdom . 」

She laughed terrifyingly .

Unfortunately, we couldn’t do anything but groan in pain .
