Chapter 73
Gray turned his attention to Emilia, who tried to call him off as he jumped out. Emilia’s eyes met his, and with a small nod, she turned her back and ran around the perimeter of the plaza, hiding in the trees.
(…There are three enemy magicians. First…)
Gray releases a sleep charm and runs straight to the center of the square, formulating his magic for the next spell.
The horses fell asleep as if in a sleep spell, but none of the kidnappers were asleep. As Gray had read, each of them was equipped with equipment that was resistant to sleep and paralysis.
“Ha… I knew it.”
“Oh?! Who’s there?!”
The kidnappers, noticing his appearance, turn toward him and ready their weapons, at the same time Gray unleashes the magic he had prepared in advance.
At that moment, a strong light burst between Gray and the kidnappers. In order not to damage the carriage where the children are trapped, he used magic for blinding.
Some of them are writhing in agony holding their eyes as they looked directly into the light, but I can count the number of them on one hand. The rest of the kidnappers prevented it with their hands, protective gear, and so on.
“Kuh… you bastard!”
He immediately readied his weapon and prepared to fire his magic, and tried to take an intercepting posture, but that momentary pause was enough for Gray.
Gray attacks the wizards in the back, passing through the vanguard. On the way
“I’ll kill you later, so sleep!”
I punched the face of the man who was threatening the children earlier. For the time being, I passed nearby, so I went by.
“Gope?!”
The man blows away, making a dumb noise.
If Emilia hadn’t stopped Gray, he would surely have been decapitated at this very moment.
Well, whether it’s good or bad that he didn’t die now is aside.
Gray closes the distance to the first magician and swings his sword. The mage’s headless body fell to the ground, and at the same time he was surrounded by men with swords and spears.
“Hey! Joss and Guineas!”
The men glared at Gray with bloodlust.
Which one was the one who punched Gray for a moment? Gray wondered.
(Well, I don’t really care what his name is. I don’t even want to remember it anyway.)
After thinking that, Gray looked around.
( I’m completely surrounded. It’s a little tough to get through to the wizard without killing them.)
“Kill him!”
Surrounded by men with weapons, the two magicians in the back are preparing to release magic to kill Gray.
Normally, this would be a desperate situation, but Gray looks completely at ease. The men thought that Gray at this time was…
(…If it comes down to it, it should be enough to leave one or two people behind, right?)
they never thought he would be thinking such a thing.
When they were cautiously looking at Gray like that, a short scream came up from behind them.
“What?!”
When the startled men looked in that direction, they saw Emilia cutting down a wizard who was behind them.
Then, with incredible speed, she closes the distance to the last wizard.
“Kuh!”
The man holding the spear tried to move to stop it, but
“Oi oi…you’ve got a lot of room for me to maneuver.”
“Gah”
Gray grabbed him by the head and slammed him straight to the ground. The man lost consciousness almost as soon as the wizard was slashed.
“I’m going to borrow this spear.”
Gray puts his sword back in its scabbard and picks up the spear that the unconscious man was holding.
“You bastard!”
At that time, another man attacked with a sword from behind, but Gray mercilessly stabbed him in the stomach without turning around.
The man fell to his knees in so much pain and spat out bloody vomit.
“Kuku… at least try to put up a fight”
―――――
There are more than ten ragged men tied up with ropes in front of us. They moan in pain and stare at us for a long time.
The children who had been locked in the carriage were still asleep from the sleep trance they had been in earlier, so I decided to ask them a few questions first.
“Answer the question. Who are you? What was your purpose in kidnapping the children?”
Emilia crosses her arms and quietly asks the question.
“Ke… Who will answer?”
The man who answered was the one who was knocked unconscious first.
“Oh. Do you guys know where you stand?”
“Ha! What? You want to torture me and force me to fess up? Do it if you can.”
A man who never loses his strong attitude. The other guys are not just being tough…they seem to still have some room to breathe.
Are you still with us, by any chance?
Emilia, perhaps feeling uncomfortable with their attitude, is thinking about something with her arms crossed.
I’ll use magic to search the area just in case…
“Hey hey hey… what the hell is going on here?”
As I was thinking this, I heard a voice from behind me.
“Where have you been, captain? Please help us, they attacked us out of the blue… they killed Guinee and the others!”
The men who are tied up react to the voice.
…Captain?
“These guys… don’t tell me you guys are having this conversation with those two people over there?”
When I turned around, there stood a frivolous-looking man with an eye patch and a stubble beard.

Gray clenched his fist and slammed it into the kidnapper’s face!
