Chapter 196 Best Companions ②

Part 1

For such a high-ranking race, the life of a 『Human Beings』 who are born, give birth to children and die at a speed more than three times faster than them seems to be very dizzying.

The reason why many of the Spirit People stay in the forest and rarely go outside is partly because they look down on people with lesser abilities, but also because they feel shocked at how rushed humans’ life seems despite looking so much like them.

In that sense, Kruz and the others who voluntarily abandoned their rich and relaxed life to go down to human society could be said to be very active and curious.

To the protesting Kruz, their respected Party Leader, Lapis Frugol, the Leader of the 《Starlight (Hoshi no Seirai)》, squinted her clever amethysts eyes and said in a resolute voice.

『Kruz, this is a good opportunity. It is not every day that we get the chance to get involved in a mission with 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》 as he rarely does it himself. This is an opportunity to find out how Lucia Roje――《All Creations (Bansho Jisai)》 has become so powerful. By extension, this is a critical mission that will ultimately lead to our future.』 (Lapis

『But, Lapis. I’m not used to being an escort, you know, desu. I might become a nuisance.』 (Kruz)

She understands the logic. Kruz and the others are more curious and more ambitious than ordinary Spirit People. Not as much as Eliza the 《Wandering (Horo)》, who no one had any idea of what she was thinking, but the Kruz was willing to work with the humans. However, she was worried.

As a Spirit People, Kruz is imbued with the temperament of a Spirit People. Although she tries to be careful, she often offends people. And she still can’t use honorifics without watching her tongue.

If the other party was just a merchant, then even if you do something rude, it won’t become serious, but with a nobleman, and the Emperor at that, there was no telling what would happen if something went wrong. Not to mention her Party, the effect would spread to the whole Clan as well.

I don’t understand at all what that sloppy-faced Yowaningen had in mind when he approached Lapis and the others.

Lapis nodded composedly when she heard Kruz.

『I do not know why he asked this to us, but if you follow 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》 instructions, it would not be a problem. And we must learn the method and his source of power. You are not helping him just because he asked for it. This is a mission that only you can perform, Kruz.』 (Lapis)

It was an important role. We will be able to identify 《Infinite Variety’s (Senpen Banka)》 power, which has solved many difficult cases and has been a mystery for a long time in the several years that he has been the Clan Master.

I clenched my fists and steeled myself. But then a thought occurred to me, and I looked at my Leader.

『By the way, why is it me, desu? There are other members who would be more appropriate than me, no, desu?』 (Kruz)

When Kruz had a quizzical look on her face, Lapis shrugged her shoulders and said.

『So it is about this…… Of all of us, you are the one who gets along the most with 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》, no?』 (Lapis)

§

Seriously, Lapis has a terrible misunderstanding. It is not that Kruz gets along with 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》. It is because he asked me various requests that I, as a noble Spirit People, help him. I am just fulfilling my duty as someone who has power.

In the first place, Yowaningen is Lucia’s brother. It was only a rational decision that Kruz takes care of him.

.

Besides, Yowaningen is a joke and sloppy, but he’s not bad for a human.

I’ve always thought so.

That’s why, when the scene suddenly unfolded in front of me, I did something unbecoming of a Spirit People and was simply stunned by what I saw.

The hall was full of dead bodies. All of the guards that had been placed to protect the Emperor of Zebrudia had fallen and didn’t move a centimeter.

The only person who was still conscious was the head of the Knight Order, Franz Argman, the one who employed Kruz, and the others.

Outside the large window, there was a dimly lit space spreading out. Franz dropped to his knees and stared at Term with glaring eyes.

“Haaah, haaah…… W-What does, this mean……” (Franz)

“Fumu…… His Majesty had his Barrier Ring, but…… Don’t tell me you have shouldered Her Imperial Highness’ damages? Was it the power of your armor? Wasn’t he one of us? Well, whatever. However, it would be best if you don’t move. You are already dying…… But if you even move a little you will deplete what little life you still have.” (Term)

Term’s had a calm expression on his face. And 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》 who was nearby also had a strained smile on his face.

I couldn’t understand. Or maybe I didn’t want to understand.

The cause of the guards’ collapse. It was――Due to Magic.

Moreover, it was an extremely powerful and quiet Magic. It is a Magic expressly made to kill someone. “Spirit People (Noble)” do not use such terrifying Magic.

TL notes:

Thanks for reading!

“Wasn’t he one of us” Did Term misunderstanding just save Franz!? Because if he thought that Franz is an enemy he will get twice the spell and he’ll be so dead.

And is Lapis also shipping for CryxKruz? XD

Tchao à plus!
