“Fufufu, I never thought that so many goblins would be wiped out. Hmm, what a complete miscalculation.”
With a sullen expression on her face, the woman approached us.
Judging from the way she spoke, there was no doubt that she was the one who instigated the goblin.
“So even for the Red Scorpion, this is an unexpected failure huh.”
“As expected of the Guild Master. I didn’t expect you had already investigated that much.”
The Guild Master was probably asking this to fool her, but perhaps because she was in a bad mood, she readily admitted that she was part of the Red Scorpion.
“Could it be that you intended to send the third son of Count Bakuak here to slay the goblins and then head to the city after attacking the village?”
“Oh dear, you know it well. So even you boy has figured it out huh. Well, it was originally rumored that you are incomparably smarter than that idiot.”
When I asked her what was on my mind, I apparently got it right.
The woman had a bitter expression on her face.
Here, I posed another question to the woman.
“What happened to the other person, the magician?”
“Well, she’s either a goblin’s plaything now, or she’s already in their stomach. I wonder which one it is though, fufufu.”
“Ahh, ahhh!”
From the way she spoke, she was probably left in the forest.
Or rather, the best proof of that is the third son of Count Bakuak. He is now holding his head and trembling in fear when he heard the woman’s story.
“All your plans have been thwarted. Just obediently surrender.”
“Fufu, I’m not the type of woman who gives up easily. Did you really think I’m going to back down obediently? Dream on!”
“Damn it, everyone, get on the defensive position.”
“““Guwaa!”””
Suddenly, a huge explosion erupted, mainly around the woman.
We managed to avoid the blast by putting up magical barriers and taking defensive positions, but not only were many people blown away, but the houses in the village were also damaged.
“Haaa!”
Gakin!
“As expected of the Guild Master. Oh right, Cat Ears and Slime also defeated the Goblin General.”
Breaking through the smoke from the explosion, the Guild Master, Shiro, and Ao rushed towards the woman.
The woman also quickly put up a magic barrier to protect herself, but she seemed to flinch for a moment.
“Get lost!”
Bzzt bzzt bzzt!
“Wow, what a power! You are indeed a first-class magician, boy.”
Aiming for an opening, I released a lightning strike with my accumulated magical power.
The woman grinned at me, as if teasing me for my weak attack.
I already expected that she can block the spell I casted.
“Don’t stop attacking!”
“Hah!”
“Eiiii!”
“Tsk! You’re persistent. That was a heavy blow you know.”
In order to prevent the woman from attacking, the Guild Master, Shiro, and Ao stay close to the woman and attacks her magic barrier nonstop.
The blow delivered by the three of them was quite heavy, and the woman also put up a thick magic barrier to overcome it.
“Damn it, even this….…”
“I won’t let you!”
“Tch. I can’t attack like this…”
If she tries to cast magic on the three of them, I will cast magic as a distraction, preventing the women from breaking free.
At first glance, it seems like a stalemate, but I actually had an idea.
