“S-straight to the royal palace!? Reus-sama, are you joking at a time like this……?”
“Oneechan, did you forget where we are right now? We are in the sky, the sky! With this flying boat, we don’t have to climb over the city walls.”
“Oh-, r-right.”
Incidentally, this airship also has a useful function.
“Look, we’re right above the city now.”
“Even though we’re so close, no one seems to have noticed us.…. is this real?”
“This ship is in stealth mode. No one can see this airship from the outside.”
“This ship can even do that!? It could completely cripple the city’s security.….”
Even if I lower the altitude of the airship, no one pays attention to us at all.
Well, to be honest, there weren’t many people in the city to begin with, and the only people walking around were what appeared to be sand bandits patrolling their area.
We continue towards the Royal Palace.
“Let’s make a ruckus outside just in case. Fana-oneechan, Anje-oneechan, Lill, can I leave it to you guys?”
“Mm, leave it to us.”
“We just have to go on a rampage, right? That’s easy.”
“Understood.”
In order to disperse the enemy’s forces, Fana and the others were first dropped around the royal palace.
Soon screams and yells rang out.
“Let’s attack the city walls as well.”
“What do you mean?”
“Flame ball × 100”
“…… Huh?”
The hundred balls of fire I unleashed scattered in all directions, heading towards the second wall. They continued to land one after another on the upper part of the wall, the walkway where the sand bandits were stationed and could move around.
At the sudden surprise attack, I could see the bandits who were guarding the area panicking.
“W-what, what’s that frightening magic just now?”
“I just shot a bunch of flame balls. Well, I guess they’re called fireballs now.”
“No matter how you look at it, they weren’t the size of a fireball!”
This should leave the palace thinly defended. The airship docked next to the palace’s tallest spire.
“Let’s get in through this window.”
“This tower leads directly to the center of the palace… I can’t even imagine an enemy attacking from a place like this…”
Eleonore smiled wryly.
“The mastermind who united the sand bandits must be somewhere in the center. If we can defeat him, the rest will be nothing but a ragtag group. They’ll surely crumble in an instant.”
She looked back and nodded vigorously to her companions.
“Let’s go!”
Eleonore took the lead and rushed into the tower through the window. I followed beside her, with the soldiers quickly following behind us.
From a distance, it was a very beautiful white palace, but it seemed to be quite dilapidated, perhaps because it had been built for a long time.
We run down the spiral staircase of the tower.
“Sand bandit!”
“Ah? Gyaaa!?”
Eleonore slashes the man on the platform in one breath. He was probably standing guard in this tower, which overlooked the entire palace, but he never expected that an enemy will appear from above.
Just like that, we went down the spiral staircase at once.
We were greeted by bandits sitting on the floor laughing stupidly.
Eleonore quickly charged in.
“You’re in the way!”
“Eh? Guah!?”
“Where the hell are you going!?”
“E-enemy atta—”
“Uncle, just sleep.”
The man who tried to blow the whistle fell into a stupor with my magic.
After that, Eleonore and her soldiers defeated the bandits in the palace one after another. They probably never expected that the palace would be attacked so suddenly as they came in a panic, with no sense of coordination at all.
“There aren’t many of them in the first place, right?”
“Most of them may be in the city. This is convenient for us then.”
I thought that the palace was full of sand bandits, but it seems that they are rather thinly spread out in the city.
Eventually, we arrived at a large hall used by the queen for audiences.
“Good, good! There are quite a few fine girls here! Now then, which one should I start with? Uhahaha.”
There were about fifteen bandits and about the same number of young and beautiful women in the hall.
The women were gnashing their teeth as they stared fiercely at the man sitting arrogantly on the Queen’s throne.
