Mou, you meanie. My face still hurts
After this, you need to stop peeking at the Masters underwear.
Right
Uuuu
La Veil and the alter ego Aidle gave me a dumbfounded look, and I slumped my shoulders. But its not like that. You see, when you look at a figurine, you cant help but look at the whole thing, because youre interested in the shape and form, right? I didnt understand it at first, when I listened to them talking about it in the other world, but Aidle is cute, and her fairy form is even cuter so I just had to see it! Its a matter of necessity!!
Anyway, Mika, do you know where this area is?
Ahhmmm. Its okay, I know this place.
I looked around and got a general idea of where we were. Great, were near the cathedral. Its close to the castle, and I can go and get it done quickly.
Thats the direction to the castle. Were at the edge of the country, so lets move along the wall and aim for the castle. My holy armor is on the highest floor of the castle, so lets approach it from the outside and climb up.
Okay. Ill contact you then. Master II.
Got it
Master II?
When La Veil asked the alter ego to communicate with her, she gave it a strange name, and then it nodded and stuck to La Veils ear. What is that? Its so cute! I want to do that next time!
Master, we have arrived safely.
Okay, Cielo and the others are a bit far away, but theyre down near the cathedral. Well go through the gate, and you can start moving as soon as possible. If you think its dangerous, dont hesitate to use my homemade transfer stone.
All right, then. See you later.
Be careful, okay? Bye.
When the communication was cut off, the alter body left her ear and went back on her shoulder.
I tried to use it, but Im more familiar with Synchronization, so I didnt need it Mika, you can keep Master II.
Why didnt you just let me use it from the beginning?
Ah sorry about that
I regained my composure and ran around the edges of La Veil Radd in the midst of the night when people were sleeping, avoiding the patrols as I went on. Its hard to keep your footsteps as silent as possible since theres almost no sound in the city.
I never thought the night would be so quiet.
Even the taverns in La Veil Radd are closed after the sun has completely set. I think the only places with lights are the inns.
Thats one of the rules of heroism. Its really annoying.
Haha, I think so too.
La Veil and I talked about this as we made it to the walls of the castle. The guards are not that many. I used concealment to hide myself, and La Veil did the same, so we then jumped over the wall.
Nn?Was it just my imagination
I heard a little noise and the older guard turned around, but he couldnt see me, so he didnt notice. I let out a sigh and took out my holy sword.
Why did you take out the Holy Sword?
Its like dowsing. If theres holy armor nearby, it can respond Okay, there it is. Lets go.
That is quite convenient
I didnt expect it to be left in the same place as it was, but thats a good thing. With that, I can use my special abilities. Thinking of this, my steps naturally became faster.
We waited for the guards patrolling the vicinity of the tower to leave, and then we entered the tower. The tower was a simple structure, with a straight spiral staircase leading to a room at the top. It was originally meant to house the Great Sinners, but Goutani-kun said he would keep my holy armor in thereand
I remembered something and stopped in my tracks.
Whats the matter, Mika? Were almost at the top chamber?
Thats right Theres no way Goutani-kun didnt set any traps. La Veil, can you use magic now?
Hmm?I cant use it. This feelingIts like when we were in the 20th floor of the dungeon.
II-chan, can you communicate?
The alter body shook its head. We cant do this, we have to escape.
La Veil, the entire tower here, is a magic tool that prevents magic from being used while it is activated. In addition, Goutani-kun can also place a Curse , so the moment we enter the room, we may be subjected to the Curse . Thats why Aidle has to be there.
Impossible, I see. Then lets go outside for a while. I cant even channel my magic here. Im surprised that my Synchronization cant be used. Its more powerful than floor 20, restricting even a covenant.now that I think about it, youve just realized this now Mika, thats a few points deduction
UuuuIm sorry
La Veil was angry but only gave me a forehead flick We then tried to use the Concealment again to get out of the tower.
Thats where we ran into them.
I got called in, but who are you people?
!?
The man standing in front of Mika and La Veil was wearing the holy armor of a hero and was looking at us while holding a holy sword in one hand that he had already drawn.
If youre here, you must know about the holy armor, right? Are you some kind of heros spouse? Let me see your face.
Long time no see, Goutani
Hah?Sakurada, huh?
When Mika took off her hood to reveal her face, the man called Goutanis face lit up, and he began to giggle like a child.
Oi, oi, its been a while indeed! I was a little worried that you might have put Cielo-chan in danger after leaving with her after I put a Curse on you and was not sure what to do, but it seems like it was alright!! Nn? So who is that girl over there, where did Cielo-chan go!!?
Thats not the case. I was helped by these people. They also helped me return here.
Heeh, is that so
When Goutani found out that it wasnt Cielo, he instantly looked disinterested and replied curtly, but Mika, who knew about the anomaly, didnt react and continued talking.
What are you doing here?
Hah? Of course, its to keep others from taking your holy armor. Thats why I put up a lot of my curses around here, you know? I didnt expect you to fall for it, though. If youve come this far, youve only just realized that my abilities have been activated, havent you? Youre always like that, arent you?
That, that is
Mika paled at Goutanis words and hurried to check the status of herself and La Veil.

You know what Asahina always says? You should check your status often. You havent learned anything, have you
!!
Biting down so hard that her lips bled, Mika endured the words, regretting that it was her fault and thinking that he was right. After all the help Aidle had given her, she had grown stronger. She was angry at herself for being so lax.
However, there was still some hope.
So, wheres Cielo?
I wonder
The fact that Goutani was here meant that Cielo and the others could go and help the Pope without any obstacles. But thats only if Goutani hadnt planted the Curse on them.
What good does it do to lie low? Oh, right. The person behind you said you were a collaborator. Im sure youre not the only one who has a problem with this. If you have holy armor, you can certainly block my attacks and abilities dammit.
And if so, what? Cielo and the others should have rescued the Pope by now.
What the hell is wrong with you? You really dont know anything, do you?
Goutani mocked her, and Mika, unable to hide her annoyance, tried to release her holy sword, but La Veil stopped her and stood in front of Mika.
La Veil
Dont pull the trigger here, Mika, we cant win now anyway. Whats the meaning of that smile, kid?
Oh? Youre a woman, arent you? Well, Ill tell you what. Theres another hero in this country right now. Theres me, Sakurada, and .. one more.
No way
Im not lying. I said, One of you useless bastards is dead, send one over here.I asked Asahina, and she was happy to send me. And I asked him to get the Pope. Im sure theyll be happy to help. And Im sure theyll be happy to help.
Mika couldnt control herself anymore and released her holy sword to slash at Goutani.
Goutaniiiii!!!!!!
Oh, want to have at it.
Goutani swung at Mikas holy sword and knocked it down, and then hit her in the stomach with the handle. Mika blacked out, losing all the air in her lungs as she slammed into the wall across La Veil, and La Veil just watched quietly.
Hah. Idiot, A small fish is still a small fish, even if you raise the status of it while its under my Curse So, youre not scared of me, are you? Is that what youre trained to do?
Thats not why Im here. Im just not going to waste my time. So, kid, if you get us, what are you going to do then?
Hah?I think we should execute all the bandits except Cielo-chan. We dont even need Sakurada anymore. Youre lucky, arent you? You can go down in history as one who died with a hero.
Is that so
For some reason, La Veil smiled when she heard those words and raised her hands. It was a sign of surrender, but Goutani didnt like the look on his face and punched La Veil the same way he had Mika.
Guh
Huh, sore loser.
La Veils consciousness faded away without losing her smile until the end.
Next time, Cielo side
