Kato Megumi wants to learn magic

"There is also the weakness of the magic barrier. This is not easy to find... We need a skilled magician to do this..."

Kato Megumi patiently answered their questions one by one, which made them believe in the feasibility of the plan.

Fortunately, the magicians in this world have already researched raw materials such as gunpowder. Kato Megumi used this as an explanation and admitted that she was a prop maker. This made the two believe in its power. After all, they had also seen gunpowder. It burned with crackling sounds, and if it was stuffed into a closed space, it would cause an explosion, producing a lot of smoke and flames. Those in the magic academy had been researching this thing.

Plus, the powerful lady adventurer in front of him admitted that she was an item maker who could make powerful explosive items, so it was only natural.

As for the weaknesses of the magic barrier, everyone has their own expertise. The magicians who can come to the Misty Forest must have some research on the barrier. As long as they rescue all the people, there will always be a few magicians who can find the weaknesses of the barrier.

Then Kato Hui took out swords, knives, staffs, and various functional weapons from the space and piled them in front of the two people. These were all placed in the space by the two human traffickers before, just right for these adventurers to use.

Looking at the two people's eyes, Kato took the initiative to explain that he had space for storage, and under the surprised eyes of the two people, he discussed the specific plan.

"These weapons are for you to use. Next, I will let Eriri... um... the cat next to me, lead the way for you. You will go and rescue the adventurers trapped in the cave. Then tell them the plan. Those who are willing can join the plan and help us place bombs and bury them in the nodes of the magic barrier. Those who are not willing can let Eriri lead them out of the cave. She knows the way in."

As she spoke, Kato Megumi took out a large pile of time bombs and piled them in front of her, and taught them how to use them step by step until they learned how to use them. Kato Megumi again received a lot of admiring looks.

After all, this bomb is too exquisite, with light and unclear symbols on it, which clearly shows the difficulty of its workmanship and the unknown mysteries it contains. This made the two of them even more convinced of Kato Megumi's abilities.

"What about you? What are you going to do?... Since you came up with this plan, it's only right for you to carry it out."

The honorifics that appeared unconsciously in Klaus's mouth showed that he already had the impression that Kato Megumi was a strong person. At the same time, he also had doubts in his mind, why should he let them do these things?

Is this trust?

Kato Megumi smiled slightly.

"Because time is tight, I also need to rescue the woman who was harmed by the goblins. Plus, I trust you, so it would be better for us to act separately."

"You can't save so many people by yourself... How about... we wait until we rescue some adventurers and then accompany you to rescue them?"

"No need... In fact, it's more convenient for me to be alone. You know I have storage space on my body, but this space can not only hold items, but also life, so I won't disturb those goblins if I'm alone."

As soon as Kato Hui explained, they suddenly realized that this was the case! At the same time, they were in awe of the person in front of them. This was the accomplishment that a strong man should have. He could sneak into a nest of thousands of people alone without changing his expression. This was a realm they could not reach, not to mention that the strong man in front of them was an elegant woman, which made them feel even more ashamed.

"Don't worry! Since you trust us, we will definitely make the plan a success!"

"Um……"

Kato Megumi smiled and nodded, then tilted her head to think for a moment, then took out two pistols and handed them to the other party, telling them how to use them.

"Well... I'll give you these two guns. They can stabilize the situation in dangerous times... I trust you~"

The two of them were immediately excited, and this feeling of being trusted made their determination even stronger.

"Eri, I'll leave the rest to you..."

Kato Megumi looked at Eriri and said,

"Okay, okay, just be at ease. You have to be careful too..."

Giving the two of them a smile that told them not to worry, Kato Megumi quickly left the cave and left their sight.

……

……

Actually... Kato Megumi had originally planned to rescue the adventurers in each cave one by one with Eriri, but after meeting the two adventurers, she changed her mind.

You have to know that there are a lot of adventurers under siege, and there are many capable people among them. Although it is easier to be convinced with the blessing of presence and the bonus of temperament, beauty and goodwill, not everyone is like this. When there are too many people, there will be more troubles and more time will be wasted.

Some people will take it for granted that they command others because they have been rescued, while some people, because of their arrogance, cannot stand being commanded by others and insist on seeking death, thinking that it is not what you think, but what I think.

Kato Megumi hated these things, and it was troublesome to waste her time on them to reconcile these conflicts. Therefore, based on this, she felt that it was better for her to remain in the state of not showing up.

One reason is that this can effectively save time, and both processes can be carried out at the same time. After all, once a goblin finds out that the adventurers in the cave have been rescued, it will inevitably cause a huge commotion. Although this is what she needs, the place where the trapped women are located will be more alert, which will inadvertently add a lot of trouble to herself who wants to rescue them.

Therefore, she needed to rescue people first, and then use those adventurers to create chaos so that she could relax the guards and go deeper into the interior.

The second reason is that this can make one's own image more mysterious and the plan can be implemented more perfectly. After all, human beings are emotional and delusional beings. They are born with imagination and will unconsciously exaggerate the description of unknown things. Just like gods, demons, hell, ghosts and other things that the world has never seen before, people will always exaggerate their imaginations and take the initiative to increase their sense of conviction.

Therefore, taking advantage of this human inertia, Kato Megumi appears in word of mouth as a mysterious and powerful man in the mouths of Klaus and others. Then, with the bombs in their hands and the extremely scarce space, their sense of security will be greatly enhanced, and the number of people joining the plan without causing trouble will decrease, which is more conducive to the implementation of the plan.

Just like a star, there is always a huge gap between fantasy and reality. Kato Megumi does not intend to be that reality, so for the time being, she will appear as a fantasy in everyone's senses.

……

……

The ancient ruins walls stand silently underground, standing tenaciously under the light.

The neat and dilapidated houses, along with the shadows underfoot, showed a state of desolation as if they had not seen the sun for a long time. The air was filled with the smell of dust. In the shadow of the corner where it was difficult to be found, Kato Megumi moved forward carefully. She reduced her presence while concealing her traces in the blind spots of the shadows of the wall to avoid being discovered by the patrolling goblins.

She had already walked down the cliff along the path and arrived at the huge ruins.

Perhaps it was because the ruins were so large, or perhaps it was because the goblins were not good at making use of them and preferred to live in gatherings; the outskirts of the ruins were sparsely populated, with almost no goblins to be seen. As Kato Megumi went deeper into the ruins, she finally encountered patrolling goblins.

The ruins under the stairs are different from other ruins. They were originally planned as a city, so there are dense streets and alleys, and the roads to pass through are also crooked. However, precisely because of this, all roads lead to Rome, and there are many roads leading to the interior of the city, so the goblin defense and number are not so strict.

Whether it is the degree of defense or the number, it has gradually increased from the outside to the inside. From the beginning, a team only had a few goblins, and now a team has only a dozen people. Kato Hui's actions have become more rigorous and cautious, and she dare not show up easily.

“Hehe… Hehe!”

Are there goblins?

Hearing the sound coming from the front, Kato Megumi quickly hid inside the dilapidated wall.

"Huh! Huh!"

"Hehe!"

"Run, run! Catch!"

As the footsteps grew louder, the vibrations underfoot became more obvious, and the sounds coming from the front became louder and louder.

The sound that was vague and unclear before became clear, and Kato Megumi suddenly realized that she seemed to understand the goblin's words.

She was stunned at first, then seemed to have thought of something and felt happy, and a smile appeared on her face.

It seems that my language formation has analyzed the other party's words after "listening" for a period of time... What a coincidence.

If you can understand the goblins' language, you can get information through their language and find out the location of the imprisoned women.

Thinking of this, Kato Megumi became more focused.

Original Goblin Slayer: Chapter 124: Into the Underground City

"You, over there, look for it."

"Look there, that female can't run far"

Kato Hui looked outside along the crack in the wall, and saw a dozen goblins coming out of the dilapidated alley and searching everywhere. They were all carrying weapons and poking dark corners with their weapons from time to time, searching inside the ruins. The one leading the conversation was a big goblin. The big goblin was wearing armor and holding a shield in his hand. He was huge, three times the size of an ordinary goblin, and his limbs were as thick as an ordinary man's thigh. It can be seen that his strength is much higher than that of an ordinary goblin.

"What are they looking for..."

Kato Megumi murmured softly, her brows furrowed.

"Could it be that the adventurers' escape was discovered? That's impossible... The timing doesn't match."

Looking at the goblins hiding everywhere, and some even slowly walking towards her hiding place, Kato Megumi gently took a step back, wondering whether she should reduce her presence and find a secluded place to hide.

click-

Just then, the sound of rolling stones suddenly came from a corner, startling the goblins in the distance.

"Over there...over there, find! A female."

The appearance of the voice made the goblin suspicious all of a sudden, and he quickened his pace and ran towards here.

Kato Megumi was also startled and turned around, only to see a naked woman covering her mouth with her hands, looking at her in horror with her eyes wide open.

"woman?"

Kato Megumi didn't expect to see someone here. She was covered with scars and bruises, her hair was messy, and her body was covered with some unknown stolen goods. It was black, as if she had rolled in the mud and was covered with a layer of mud shell.

In just a moment, Kato Megumi understood the whole story. She finally knew what the goblins were looking for...

"Shh, calm down... I'm here to save you."

Kato Megumi walked towards her and explained to her gently. Because Kato Megumi enhanced her presence and looked gentle and safe, the woman did not resist because of the various hardships. She just stared at Kato Megumi as he came to her side.

"Over there, search! Search!"

The goblin's voice sounded again, and the woman trembled all over when she heard it. She subconsciously wanted to escape, but Kato Megumi grabbed her arm and she couldn't break free no matter how hard she struggled.

"Don't worry... I'm here... They can't find you, don't worry..."

The equipment directly pulled the other person into the space, hugged the other person, and used words to comfort the terrified and struggling woman.

"Ah, Ahhh!! Run, the Goblins are coming."

"I'm here, don't be afraid!"

Kato Megumi soothed him with gentle words, holding the other person's struggling body with one hand and gently patting his back with the other hand, trying to make him relax.

"Demon! Run! Run!"

"No! I don't want it, it hurts! It hurts so much!"

As if she had experienced the goblins' dark torture, the woman's speech was unclear and her mind seemed a little confused. She was still struggling. Kato Megumi had to sigh and cast a sacred spell to soothe her spirit. The woman's struggle then slowed down and she gradually calmed down.

After calming down, the woman's thoughts slowly came back to her senses. Only then did she realize that she had actually moved to another place, and the goblins had long disappeared.

"This...where is this?"

“It’s space, my space”

It seemed that because she had not spoken normally for a long time, the woman's voice was a little stuttering and slow, and her thinking was a little confused. When she heard Kato Megumi's answer, she was stunned for a long time with a blank mind, and she did not understand the existence of space at all.

It's like when you learned calculus in college, but you graduated early and never used it, so you've forgotten it.

Therefore, Kato Megumi was not in a hurry to talk to her, but took out food and water from the side and handed them to the other party. Considering the skinny appearance of those adventurers before, and looking at the thin appearance of the woman now, Kato Megumi felt that she should urgently need some food to replenish her strength.

"Don't be in a hurry, fill your stomach first."

Sure enough, as soon as she saw the food, the woman stopped being in a daze and immediately stretched out her two dirty hands, grabbed the food and started to gobble it up.

"Ah wu, ah wu..."

Just like a starving wild cat, Kato Megumi felt a little sad.

The woman ate with big mouthfuls. Kato Megumi didn't say anything. Instead, she kindly handed her the food and patted her back gently. It was not until she had almost finished eating and her stomach was noticeably bulging that Kato Megumi stopped her from eating any more.

The woman wanted to reach out and take it, but how could Kato Megumi let her continue eating?

Although the other party wanted to snatch the food from her hand, Kato Megumi still stopped him, as it is not good to eat too much.

After several struggles, the woman finally gave up the idea of ​​robbing and her emotions finally calmed down. Only then did Kato Megumi take her out of the space.

After spending some time in the space, the goblins outside had already left, leaving traces of their searching around, and the woman's expression also changed a little.

"Xiao Yu"

Kato Megumi took the staff and cast a healing magic on the woman. A gentle light enveloped the woman's body, and soon the scars on her body healed slowly. Kato Megumi then took out her clothes and took the initiative to put them on the woman.

The woman hesitated for a moment, perhaps because Kato Megumi had given her food before and she felt particularly safe, so she finally gave in and accepted her kindness.

After treating the other person's injuries and taking care of him, Kato Megumi gently introduced herself to the woman; "Hello, my name is Kato Megumi, I'm here to save you... How do you feel now?"

The woman was stunned for a moment, stared at Kato Megumi blankly, and nodded after a long time.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome... I'm glad you're okay..."

Seeing that the woman could finally have a normal conversation, Kato Megumi considerately asked her name.

"May I have your name……"

"..."

"Norma, my name is Norma..."

"Norma? What a nice name..."

But I seem to have heard it somewhere, Kato Hui thought about it carefully, and it seemed that Al and his companions also had a girl named Norma, so she asked the woman.

"Do you know Al and Chris?"

As if she heard a familiar name, the woman's emotions became more intense.

"You, you know, him, them? Are they, okay, right..."
