Because they were moving too fast, the bleak morning breeze of late autumn hit her face like a blade, and the stinging sensation made Ella wake up immediately.
[Eh? Where is this? ]
Ella immediately looked forward, and then she saw a scene that almost made her eyes fall out - her hands had been hugging Lotte's neck without her knowing it, and not only that, judging from the residual warmth on the side of her face, she must have been clinging to Lotte's back without realizing it.
pat.
The sound of something breaking echoed in her heart, and Ella had a premonition that she would never be able to find that thing again.
What the hell did I do!!!
While shouting in her heart, Ella subconsciously loosened her arms that were tightly around Loti's snow-white neck, and Loti immediately paused.
"Miss Ella, what's wrong?"
"Hmm."
"If you feel too cold, I can slow down a bit. Hmm - if you hold... hold tighter... maybe it will be better."
At the end of her speech, Lotte's tone suddenly became strange. Ella couldn't help but tilt her head slightly to check, but Lotte seemed to feel her gaze and turned her face away as well, so that Ella could only see Lotte's slightly red ears.
[Is Lotte shy too? But for Lotte, there's nothing to be shy about, right?]
The reason why I felt embarrassed and guilty was because of the things that had just been broken. For Lotte, carrying me on her back should be a normal development between friends.
However, Ella did not think deeply about it, because after realizing that Lotte was shy, she became even more embarrassed. If she did not think that twisting would affect Lotte, she would definitely hold her face with her hands and scream loudly, just like "The Scream" painted by Edvard Munch, and roll on the ground to vent her anger.
"Hmm."
After swallowing a mouthful of non-existent saliva—in reality, her mouth was so dry that she really wanted to drink water—Aila slowly, hesitantly, and reluctantly put her hands together again, hugging Lotte's neck, so that Lotte wouldn't slow down because of her.
Noticing Ella's change, Loti paused again, but unlike the slowdown just now, Loti's steps became lighter.
I hope no one sees me...
Ella hoped so in her heart. If she was seen by others, she would never be able to raise her head for the rest of her life. But the more she didn't want to be seen, the more she felt that many eyes were focused on her from afar. In order to resist the imaginary gazes, Ella buried her head lower, and the result was that the fragrance of Ruthie filled her lungs.
A reassuring and familiar smell.
Just smelling it makes your eyelids feel heavy, as if you are about to fall asleep.
If I think about it carefully, there is often this kind of fragrance on my washed clothes. At first I thought it was an illusion, but now it seems that maybe Ruthie used some kind of fragrance when washing clothes - maybe?
A scene she had read in a comic book flashed through her mind, but Ella couldn't combine that kind of nympho behavior with Lotte. In every sense, they were two different worlds.
[But having said that, Lotte is indeed very slender, and her body is also very soft.]
Saying it out loud would constitute sexual harassment, so Ella just sighed in her heart that if she were a man, she would definitely attack Lotte first. No, it should be said that she would be captured by Lotte.
Unable to do anything due to being carried on Lotte's back, Ella even began to imagine some impossible things in her mind, such as the scene of her confessing to Lotte, Lotte smiling and saying "Okay" as usual, followed by the calm but warm daily life after the confession, and then -
It was the image of Mitis banging on the table, clutching the corner of her clothes and shouting "Why?"
If it really develops like that, what should I choose?
Ella frowned heavily. Although she was reluctant to confirm it, she had to admit that she was not good at making decisions and was indecisive.
Hence the best answer.
"Well, even if I confess, I won't be accepted. I better not overthink it. After all, love between two women is definitely an anomaly in the eyes of others."
If possible, Ella wanted to put her hand on her forehead, but because she didn't want to cause trouble for Lotte, she just sighed deeply in the end.
"Haha."
"Ms. Ella?"
"Huh? No, nothing."
"Really? We're almost there. She hasn't noticed us yet. Looks like Miss Fukagan has succeeded."
"Very good……"
Ella agreed and twisted her body.
"Can you please let me down first?"
"OK."
Lotte stopped and put Ella down. The cold wind blowing from the side immediately took away the heat from Ella's body, causing Ella to shiver.
"Huh, it's really cold. I should have worn my priest uniform earlier."
In order to infiltrate, she didn't wear a conspicuous "Miracle Healing" but the coldness only lasted for a short time. Ella quickly checked the terrain.
"Iris and the others are just inside the city gate. Let's go now."
"Um."
There were no soldiers in the watchtower or in front of the city gate, proving that Shen Gan had succeeded. Without any worries, Ella and Luty walked quickly along the main road, passed through the five-meter-high heavy city gate, and came into the castle.
Iris and Mitis were waiting for him and Luty at the side door. He could see scattered fragments of Kumi lying in the dark corner of the city gate.
Noticing Ella and the other person approaching, Iris waved her staff.
"That's too slow."
"We encountered a little accident. It's not Lotte's fault."
"I'm not talking about Lotte-chan."
"Where's Ms. Fukagan?"
"I've already gone to the castle to pick up Angelina. There hasn't been any commotion so far, so the magic circle probably hasn't noticed it yet."
Mitis took out a white parasol from the storage space. Perhaps it was the special ability of being the Mark of Original Sin. Like Ella, Mitis did not need to reach into the space to take items.
"It's best to block the intersection before Fukama is discovered. Although Fukama is powerful, a head-on battle is very disadvantageous."
"Well, proceed according to the plan. Iris and Mitis will block the entrance to the second floor from the main hall. Lotte and I will go to the upper floor to meet Fukagan."
After nodding to each other, Iris tapped the ground lightly with her staff, slightly curled up the corners of her mouth, revealing a chilling and terrifying smile.
"Then let them pay the price for using the seal on me."
Chapter 72 Rescue
In order to share the pressure with Shen Gan, Ella and her group did not conceal their infiltration and marched through the castle in a swagger. But what was strange was that they did not see a single soldier along the way, only scattered Kumi fragments left in the corridor.
Seeing a pile of debris again, Iris raised her eyebrows strangely.
"Could it be Fuka-chan? This is clearly an infiltration mission..."
"Perhaps Miss Fukama is trying to lighten our load. We'll be at the main hall soon, Miss Ella."
"Hmm, 'Strength Boost', 'Concentration', 'Attribute Enhancement'... 'Heavy Attack', 'Power Blessing'."
Various colors of light flew out from the Heavenly Punishment Pestle in Ella's hand, and colorful lights instantly appeared on the bodies of Luti and the other two who were in charge of the battle. At the same time, Mitis, who posed the greatest threat to Kumi, stepped forward and carefully placed her hand on the three-meter-high plain iron door of the hall - some royal families would set traps on the door, so special attention must be paid.
Nothing happened.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and then Mitis exerted a little force with her right hand, and the iron door made a heavy sound and slowly opened.
Quack quack quack.
Like a machine that had not been oiled for a long time, the hinges of the hall made a harsh sound. As a gate used by the royal family, this sound was too cold. However, instead of complaining, everyone was more concerned about whether the sound would attract Kumi who was guarding nearby.
"Who?"
really.
"Iris, I leave it to you!"
"Leave it to me!"
Before Iris could answer, Mitis passed through the gap in the iron gate and rushed into the hall first.
"It's an enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
"Quickly notify the people in the clock tower."
"No one can escape!"
Mitis's confident voice drowned out the Kumi's shouts, followed by a series of ping-pong sounds, like plates being broken.
What on earth is this guy doing?
Ella couldn't help but have such thoughts for a moment, but thoughts were just thoughts and she couldn't delay the battle because of them. Ella pushed open the door on the other side and followed Iris into the hall.
What came into view was a spacious hall that looked like a noble hall, with two spiral staircases on the left and right. Not only that, there were countless passages around the hall that connected to other places. Just as the intelligence said, as long as the hall was guarded, most of the Kumi could be blocked.
The reason for this is that there are more than one way leading to the second floor, but because those passages are located in more remote places in the castle, the soldiers will not choose to take other routes other than the hall first.
Looking at the almost one-sided battle ahead, Iris frowned.
"There's not even a single orichalcum kumi. Isn't that too easy?"
"It should be somewhere else in the castle."
"That's all I can believe. Aira-chan, go to the second floor to meet up with Fuka-chan. With the current strength of the Kumi clan, Mitis-chan and I can hold out for as long as we want."
"We'll finish this as soon as possible."
After nodding heavily to Iris, Ella looked at Lotte, who was holding Hela, and the two of them took advantage of the chaos to follow the wall and enter the second floor from the spiral staircase on the right.
"They're heading to the second floor! Stop them!"
"Don't even think about getting past me!"
"Mitis-chan, buy some time while I block off the extra roads."
"no problem!"
Such a conversation came from behind. Although she was very concerned about how Iris would block the intersection where the reinforcements were pouring in, now was not the time to be fussy. Ella could only pray in her heart for the Kumi and the others that Iris would not tear down the castle.
After going up to the second floor, what appeared in front of them was a narrow corridor that could barely allow three people to walk side by side. There were no windows or vents, and the bricks and stones were all black, giving people an indescribable sense of depression.
Glancing at the terrain search, Ella pointed to the right.
"here."
"OK."
Judging from the soldiers' movements on the map, Shen Gan has been discovered by the soldiers, but fortunately, Shen Gan has reached the seventh floor where Angelica is. In exchange for Shen Gan attracting the soldiers' attention, there are no more than two-digit Kumi in the three floors from the second to the fourth.
"We need to speed up."
"Why not just climb up from the outer wall?"
Luti suggested.
"Can you do that?"
"Well, I've learned flying magic. Even though there are no windows in the castle, I can force my way through them."
"Then I'll leave it to Lotte."
After nodding slightly to Lotte, Ella took a few steps to the side, while Lotte raised Hela and pointed it at a wall not far away.
"Explosive Bomb."
boom.
The controlled blow created a one-meter-wide hole in the wall. Without Lotte's signal, Ella walked to the hole, grabbed Lotte's wrist, nodded to each other, and jumped out of the corridor.
""flight"."
Before it could descend rapidly, its body flew up under the drag of Lotte, and then, the shouts of soldiers could be heard faintly in the distance.
"The battle outside has begun."
"I don't know if it's Miss Kamisia's or Miss Kagamika's."
"After we're done, let's go check on Jinghua first."
“—Explosive Bomb.”
Before Ella could answer, Lotte looked down fiercely, raised Hela with one hand, and launched a "Explosive Bomb" at one of the four towers. With bricks flying, the top of the entire tower disappeared in an instant.
Ella clicked her tongue.
"Tsk, have you been discovered?"
If you look closely, you can see that there are five Kumis holding bows and arrows standing on the top of another tower below.
