Chapter 448: Rushing In

We came all the way to the edge of the wide Royal Capital. Even I was surprised, "This far!" but Anouk seemed more surprised,

"What is there this far? What are you going to do from now?"

When asking Lily,

"That is why I said. Please wait at the embassy."

"Muu..."

Anouk who is told sharply falls silent.

Then we stopped on the roof of a house deep in an alley in the outskirts. Lily points at the target house.

"We have arrived. That house."

Hearing that, Anouk,

"What is wrong with that house?"

asks. Therefore Lily,

"Inside that house there are beasts. In the daytime, they tried to kidnap Lady Konoka who was walking the street of the town. They seemed to intend to assault and sell her off or kill her. When kidnapping there was no hesitation, and they were extremely skilled, so it was thought not the first time but habitual. Such guys have no value in living. Because we are outsiders, even if we see such things we have remained silent, but when becoming a party like this time we cannot remain silent. We will make them realize with a gat!"

she says in a cold tone. Recalling the daytime, revenge is burning in the heart, that kind of place.

Hearing that, Anouk,

"Hohou, that cannot be ignored. If it is a matter of the Royal Capital, it is not someone else’s business for me either! Since I have followed this far, I will help!"

for some reason becomes eager and says she will cooperate. Hearing that, Lily also,

"Thank you. I thought Anouk-sama would surely say so. A reliable companion has appeared, I am moved!"

is saying. Hmm, what is going on? Anouk did not hesitate to rush in. And without being properly explained, Anouk not stopping Lily jumping into someone’s house, is there some reason? Even saying a downtown that seems to have bad public order, it is a private house, right? Is it fine? Anouk, is there something she is thinking?

Lily turns around and looks at me,

"Lord Robbie, we will go inside, so could Lord Robbie watch at the entrance? To not let the villains escape, and if there is one who uses magic I would like you to deal with them. I do not think there is one who can use magic in a place like this."

she says while laughing. Was the reason for bringing me intending to have me deal with a magician? Does that mean she originally intended to jump in alone? Anouk seemed the same,

"Jumping in alone? What is that! It’s beyond reckless!"

while saying she also draws a rapier. Even with two it feels reckless.

Lily jumped down in front of the target house. It cannot be helped so I also follow. There are quite a few people inside the house. The sound of a commotion can be heard. Faintly a woman’s crying, screams can also be heard. This should be entered quickly.

Kon, kon, kon Lily knocks on the door. The bustle inside the house does not settle.

Don! Lily kicks the door. The inside of the house became quiet. There Lily knocks once more kon, kon, kon, and inside something is being said. Then someone walks to the door.

The peephole of the door was opened. They are looking at us. The peephole is closed and

"There’s a woman."

a voice was heard. Hearing that, inside becomes noisy with a gabble.

"A woman coming in the middle of the night like this, what happened?"

or,

"Isn’t it a crackdown?"

there are also voices, and

"Let’s eat her."

there are also voices saying, and

"What kind of woman?"

there are also guys saying.

"Because we have gold gripped to the guard unit, there’s no way they’ll come here."

"Always thanks for the care, isn’t it that they sent a captured woman? Again catching a street prostitute, and bringing one troubled with disposal?"

"Really, themselves playing as much as they play, and when they get bored bringing to our place, can only be thought crazy. Naa— ahahahaha!"

and so on, voices saying they are deeply connected with the guard unit can also be heard. Dumbfounded and unable to say anything. Anouk is completely expressionless. A face like a mask, would be good to say.

Once more, the peephole was opened.

"Two women and a child? There’s a brat."

saying inside.

"The women, what kind of women?"

"It’s dark and I don’t know."

"Then, let’s open and let them inside. Women are lacking. If the appearance is good it’s fine."

Anyway it seemed decided to let the ones who visited inside, and the door was opened. The eyes of the men inside are paying attention this way. Eyes are going to the leading Lily and "She’s an older woman but top class" or "Unbearable" "This is something to look forward to" voices are being made. Older woman, how old do they think? The top class I know sufficiently because I tasted earlier. Fluid might still be spilling from the crotch.

"Come come, come inside."

A man invites Lily. Lily enters, Anouk enters, and I was also let in. It has become like a small tavern, liquor bottles lined up on the tables, cups scattered.

However these guys are really idiots. A woman coming to a place like this in the middle of the night like this is surely with some history. Why do they not understand that. Even if the woman is somewhat strong, do they think that if suppressed with numbers it will somehow work? Surely by rule of thumb they think so, but anyway be more wary! I think as if it is someone else’s business, but of course I remain silent about such unnecessary things.

The men raising cheers looking at Lily and Anouk. Both are aunties around 40 in real age, but appearance is around 30 so they are the perfect prey. Just as I thought they would jump immediately, are they wary of the rapier for the time being? But from the face to the body, they are all guys radiating bestial desire. There are ones licking their lips, and

"Which one shall we do first."

there are also guys saying. Even a woman coming to a place like this in the middle of the night with weapons, anyway trying to manage with numbers. Companions might get injured or die, but as long as it is not oneself it is fine, that kind of place.

From the back room a woman’s scream was heard, and the sound of hitting flesh was heard. Hearing that the men laughed guffaw, and the man who looked at Lily’s rapier,

"Sister, did you come to help someone? Right now, in the back we are in the middle of fun, sorry but wait a little? While waiting let’s play with me. If you hold such a dangerous thing you’ll get injured, come give it to me."

while grinning he approaches. He extends his hand and tries to grab the hand of Lily holding the sword. Lily hits that hand with the pommel. I thought she would cut it off, but she did not go that far. However the hit man,

"It hurts——!!"

while shouting holds his hand and rolled on the floor.

Seeing that the men inside the house stood up all at once!

"Do them!" "Underestimating!" "Make them regret!" "Don’t think you can return alive!"

Saying something variously, ones taking weapons, ones trying to jump with bare hands, anyway attacking Lily and Anouk.

"I was waiting!"

Anouk steps forward and sweeps the chest of the man in front. Avoiding the collapsing man, she cuts the arm of the man beside. Because it is a rapier, there is not enough power to sever the arm. It will not become a fatal wound, but it is not that it does not hurt, and the men hold the cut place and collapse.

"I had my eye on them from before. Lily-san, do as you like!"

Had her eye on them? I want to hear, but it is not the place for that. Anyway permission to rampage came from Anouk.

Shu! Lily’s rapier glimmers and sweeps the man’s eyes sideways.

"Gya!"

while saying the man collapses on the floor. Stepping on that man Lily steps forward and sweeps the stomach of the next man.

"Uwaaa—!"

The man holds his stomach and rolls.

"Shut up!!"

From the side there is a man who swung with a wooden chair. Idiot, that is like saying please cut it!

I thought, and Lily as is swept the empty stomach. Did this cut an artery or something, blood overflowed grandly.

"You!? Hi, the daytime!"

There is a man pointing at Lily. We are wearing black clothes, but the face is not particularly hidden, so if there is an acquaintance they would know.

"Found you!"
