Chapter 1 E 5 (Escape)
"Seriously, what a black-hearted person..."
Ryouma kicked the corpse of Gaies with his feet.
That's why Ryouma crushed his own emotion to the depth of his heart. Until the time where he finally has to stop his opponent breath.
Gaies and the others must be already have summoned different worlders long ago even before Ryouma was summoned.
How many people were summoned, and have died burned in despair?
Thinking that, once again the sorrow and wrath against the old man welled up inside Ryouma heart.
*Gangangan*
"W-...What?"
Suddenly the iron door of this room is being hit from the outside.
"Is everything alright? Gaies-sama?"
The door then strongly being knocked on again.
It seems like the soldier outside the door have noticed something unusual at the time I killed the other soldiers.
(In this situation, what should I do?)
(Is there a way? Is there something that I can do in this situation?)
There's no window in this room. There's only a door. And there are some soldiers on the other side of the door, which make him unable to escape.
Ryouma had already killed Gaies and four soldiers.
No, even if there is room for negotiation, Ryouma won't choose it either.
Much less thinking about surrendering to such people.
He tried to pull out the sword from the dead body of the soldier to secure some weapon while looking at the dead body; an idea flashes his mind!
After a few moment of thinking, Ryouma comes to a conclusion.
"I guess, I shall bet on it..."
*Gangangangan.*
The door is being slammed again.
After all, in this world, there exist people who're able to bring out lightning from their hands just like this old man.
Anyway, this place is another world.
(No matter how I escaped this fortress, without money, the only thing that I will end up with will be robbing someone or stealing something.)
For the time being, from the dead body, he finds five leather bags filled with gold, silver, and copper coins. This money is Ryouma hope.
(At least even if I can't find work, until this money disappears, I can live without doing robbery)
(But since I don't know the monetary value of this at all, I was worried about as to how much a living cost would be but, at this stage, there's nothing I can do about.)
Gangangan.
"Gaies-sama! Gaies-sama!"
The door is being slammed hard once again. The volume of the voice that comes from the other side of the door become slightly increased.
There's no time for Ryouma to hesitate.
He took off his student uniform, unfasten his leather belt and fastens it around his chest.
He firmly ties the bag filled with money to the belt tightly.
That is to make sure that they won't identify the face. Then, he put on the clothes and armor that he had stripped from the soldier on himself.
"Fuu~. Somehow I was able to wear it huh?"
Relieved words come out from Ryoma's mouth.
(I'm glad that this armor is not the one full type, but the type that I have to put it on part per part.)
*Gangangan!*
While trying to wear the armor desperately, the matter of the state of the outside room did not cross Ryouma head. However, the atmosphere right now has turned into something that they would likely come rus.h.i.+ng into this room at any moment.
The door is about to be opened by force.
"This is a dangerous bet, but it's better than trying to break through..."
A lot of soldiers tried to come in from the door.
"Rolph imperial knight leader. junior imperial court magic user Seria Wookland-sama have arrived!"
Following the soldier report, a red-haired woman appears.
"What's going on here!? What about Ojiji-sama?"
The moment she comes, she questioned the man named Rolph with a serious tone.
The redhead getting upset with, her rich chest which grew quite big shook greatly.
"Please calm down!"
Rolph angry voice is resounded this time.
Seria, being told by a person that had survived the b.l.o.o.d.y battlefield for so many years, it was enough to erase the unrest within the young imperial court magic user.
She might have noticed that she is angry unreasonably. She then combs her hair try to calm her own feeling.
"No. I myself being impolite. And I can understand you feeling being upset since this is about your blood relative after all."
His one eye then somewhat softened.
She resumes the face of genius who's being recognized as the『Queen of the Snowstorm』 which has both calmness and coldness.
"There are a lot of things that I still don't know."
"I do not mind. Please tell me the things that you are able to understand."
"Three hours ago, Gaies-sama entered the room with four soldiers to perform the summoning ceremony..."
Hearing Rolph words Seria face turn cloudy.
"Three hours is it?... it takes 2 hours to prepare the summoning ceremony, and another 30 minutes to cast it. that means, just what had happened in the remaining 30 minutes..."
An unpleasant feeling spread over Seria's heart.
"Yes... From the story of the guard, about 30 minutes ago they felt a big vibration from the room, after receiving the report, I immediately contacted Seria-dono, and then head over here with the others."
"I see..."
"These guys try to confirm the situation while waiting outside the door, because they are being forbidden to enter the room and make any noise during the ceremony, they wait for a further instruction... isn't that right? Oi, you!"
Rolph asked the two soldiers who have been standing behind him.
"I see... there's no problem with your judgment."
Seria then nodded toward the two soldiers.
"Ha!"
Hearing Seria's words a relieved smile are shown on the soldiers face/
However, many n.o.ble families did not understand that. At worst, there's the possibility that they will be asked: "why did you people did not enter?" .............................................
Just because there's no accident all this time then this time it won't happen either, he's not a senile enough to think like that.
At worst, it might cause the nation to decline. However, Seria shakes her head denying Rolph concern.
"No. Probably a magic attack was used."
Hearing that words, one-eyed Rolph immediately opened his eye wide.
Receiving a magic attack from the Ortomea empire imperial court magic user Gaies-sama, in this continent, no man can survive that.
Seria's words pierced Rolph mind who has intentionally ruled out such possibility.
"We have to think about the worst situation..."
Seria's expression also becomes stiff. It was an expression after they are aware that their blood relative has died.
"I-I'm sorry!"
Suddenly Rolph lowered his head toward Seria.
"Wha- What are you doing? Rolph-sama?"
Seria become fl.u.s.tered.
"Seria-dono. this was one's error in judgment."
If by any chance, he burst into a room quickly, he might be able to save Gaies.
Summoning is something that should be done very carefully after all.
"Seria-sama..."
Rolph saw Seria's shoulders trembling a little.
A spherical flame swirled around Seria's palms then she pushes her arm forward toward the door.
