We were frozen in our seats, unable to move at the disaster unfolding before our eyes.
—Except for one person and one animal.
“Tou!”
Zudoon!
“Jaaa!”
Aiming at Baphomet, who was about to eat the woman, Shiro and Ao charged at him with a drop kick. Completely caught off guard, Baphomet was blown away in a flashy manner without having time to take up a defensive stance.
“You can’t eat Oneechan!”
“Ua….…”
Shiro and Ao stepped in front of the Receptionist-oneesan and glared at Baphomet, who they had kicked away.
On the other hand, the Receptionist-oneesan seems to have not yet grasped the situation as she still had a terrified expression. By the way, Ao secretly used life magic on her to clean up her body, but she didn’t even notice it.
“They’re getting in the way of the fight. Arrest the thugs and get them out of the church.”
“Don’t let any more needless killings happen.”
“““Yes!”””
At this time, the Margrave and the leader of the Holy Knight gave instructions to the soldiers under their command to deal with the thugs who had lost their will to fight and those who had lost consciousness.
Of course, they also carried the corpse of the priest outside the church.
The Receptionist-oneesan was still too weak to move, so one of the Holy Knights carried her in a princess carry.
“S-sorry, Shiro-chan. Please don’t die.”
“Un!”
Shiro nodded enthusiastically in response to the Receptionist-oneesan’s words as she was carried outside.
“Muhuuu”
Baphomet was blown away by Shiro and Ao in a spectacular manner, taking the seats in the church with him. Then, he stands up with an angry expression on his face.
However, the others who have seen Shiro’s attack are now quite motivated to get rid of Baphomet.
“He’s a little different from the Baphomet I’ve heard from the rumors.”
“Mm. Maybe the summoning was incomplete. This one doesn’t have a shred of intelligence, and physical attacks seem to work just fine on it.”
The Guild Master and his wife are probably right. If Baphomet isn’t as strong as he should be, we have a chance to defeat him.
“Hehe, if we can hit him like that, then this will be easy.”
“Indeed. Let’s get rid of him as soon as possible.”
The chairman of the executive committee and the Margrave are having such exchange, but I think they are planning to defeat Baphomet quickly because they want to have drinks already.
“Hugaaa!!”
“It’s going to cast magic! Activate magic barrier!”
All of a sudden, Baphomet began to gather magical power in his hands.
Following instructions from the Holy Knight, Sue and I prepared a magical barrier together.
“Eii!”
When I tried to talk to the daughter of the executive committee chairman, who can also use magic, I was stunned as she threw a magic attack at Baphomet instead.
Zudoon!
“Guga!”
Zudododooon!
The magic released by the daughter of the executive committee chairman hit Baphomet directly in the face, and Baphomet subconsciously released his magic before he had time to gather enough magical power.
But even though Baphomet hadn’t gathered much magical power, it was still quite powerful.
Thankfully, Sue, me and the magician girl were able to block Baphomet’s spell with a magical barrier.
“Fufufu, attack before you get hit! That’s the iron rule of fighting, right Dad?”
“Sigh. I didn’t expect you to be so similar to me.”
“Without a doubt, that child is yours.”
In contrast to the smug look on the executive committee chairman’s daughter’s face, her parents, the chairman and his wife, had very complicated expressions on their faces.
That said, now that we know surprise attacks work on Baphomet, it looks like it is time to start our counterattack now.
