Chapter 1584 - Stomachache-Filled Founding Festival ⑫
Chapter 1584 - Stomachache-Filled Founding Festival ⑫
The one who arrived just as Lilia-san was taking a break was Roze-san, the Slime who is the administrator of the Six Kings Dungeon in the Forbidden Lands and a member of Kuro’s family.
[Roze-san, you came. I was surprised, but I’m glad you came to visit.]
(Ehehe~~ Roze wanted to surprise Kaito-kun, so Roze kept it a secret!)
[Are things going to be alright back in the dungeon though?]
(Unnn! Roze knows what’s going on in the dungeon even when Roze is far away after all. Besides, besides, Roze prepared a lot of things for today so that Roze won’t be in danger! Well, Roze is strong, so it’s actually alright even when Roze doesn’t have an escort, but just as Kuromu-sama said, just in case.)
[I’m sure Kuro is worried about Roze-san too…… but escort?]
I understand how Kuro feels. Indeed, Roze-san may be a Count-rank possessing magic power that astonishes Amel-san and Lilia-san, but due to their childlike atmosphere, one just couldn’t help feeling anxious for them. No, if they actually fought, they would probably be incredibly strong, but it’s hard to sense that from their appearance and atmosphere. They just feel more like a Slime with immense magical power.
However, putting their atmosphere aside, I lean forward and look around, but I can’t see anyone other than Roze-san.
(Unnn. Right now, Roze’s body is adorned with numerous Special Magic and Barrier Magic…… Come out~~)
As Roze-san announces this, Roze-san’s shadow spreads out in waves, and a black jester clown appears from within their shadow.
……Isn’t that Luminax…… Moreover, it’s in its Final Phase. If I recall correctly, it was an incredibly dangerous Golem that moved at a speed so fast that even Peak Count-ranks couldn’t perceive, being the strongest Golem in the Six Kings Dungeon aside from Kuro’s Golem.
[……Ummm, Kaito-san? We couldn’t understand what Roze-sama was saying…… but what in the world is that thing with a bizarre magic power?]
[An abyssal jester emerging from the shadows. This dark magic power, possessing jet-black presence as if it was materialized despair…… Somehow, it reminds me of the King of Empty Illusions.]
[Ah, Amel-san got it right. Currently behind Roze-san is Luminax, the Golem modeled after Alice. I’ve heard it’s difficult to operate those Golems out of the Six Kings Dungeon though……]
According to Roze-san, it takes a lot of work to operate the Six King Golem outside of the dungeon. They apparently prepared a lot, applying various Special Magic and Barrier Magic to their own body……
(Unnn, it was rough~~ It took Roze about 10 days to prepare the magic techniques to bring out Luminax just like this time. However, Roze can only take it out for one day.)
[That certainly is inefficient. Well, that just shows how powerful it is…… Arehh? Lilia-san, it just occurred to me…… but Luminax possesses vast amounts of magic power, right?]
[Yes, when it was in the shadows, I couldn’t sense it at all, but it is now emanating tremendous magic power.]
[……This magic power, couldn’t those in the ceremony sense it too?]
A Six King Golem is technically considered a Peak Count-rank…… but as it possesses an exceptionally high amount of magic power, the current Duke-ranks, with a few exceptions, are generally unable to contend against it.
That especially goes with Luminax, as with Alice frequent patches, it had ended up becoming the strongest Golem aside from Cross of the End’s Final Form.
In that case, I thought that the current situation now turned out that a being with such tremendous magic power had suddenly appeared in the Imperial Capital, so I asked Lilia-san about it.
Lilia-san thought about my words for a moment before speaking.
[They would detect it, and the Security Staff would probably be flustered because of the appearance of an unknown being with powerful magic power, but it will be reported to Her Majesty Chris, to which World King-sama or Dragon King-sama will give her an explanation…… Even if that wasn’t the case, since the location of the magic power is here in Kaito-san’s stall…… I don’t think it’d cause much of a commotion, with them just brushing it off as another one of Kaito-san’s antics.]
[……Another one of my antics, I don’t really understand what you mean. I also couldn’t find the appropriate way to react to that.]
[……You have previous records already after all. Kaito-san is just perceived now as a walking anomaly……]
[I don’t really wanna agree to that, but I also couldn’t quite refute……]
I am feeling a bit disgruntled about being called a walking anomaly, but when Lilia-san is the one telling me that, I can’t find the heart to complain. I do feel self-conscious about the things that occurred in the past.
Well, in any case, I’m relieved that it won’t become a big deal…… Ah, no, Chris-san’s stomach might hurt though…… Well, after the Founding Festival, let’s apologize to her just in case.
<Afterword>
Serious-senpai : [Even a long-ranged Stomachache Shot won’t miss. So this is a Stomachache Specialist…… It’s probably a disaster for Chris who got hit by a stray bullet though……]
