“Chapter 81: To the Demon Fortress”

– Haah…

Well, we’re not scared, but we definitely don’t feel motivated.

I can’t believe I said all of that.

I had to tell Azaasha I’m Level IX.

And now I have to grow enough to cover my lies.

How am I supposed to do that?

Not only do I have to worry about the Levels issue, I also have to think about how to get all the materials needed for the spear.

– …Takaya. Takaya! Are you listening?

We were walking to Mumuruu’s fortress when Letty called me.

– Ah, sorry. I was deep in thought.

– I can tell by your face.

– I’m sorry for getting you two involved in this. I’ll try my best to make-

– Shush.

– Ghwp!?

My cheeks flushed as Letty pulled me into her chest.

– L-Letty!? What are you doing?

– Takaya, you did not “involve us”. We all lied to Azaasha-sama.

– But…

– She’s right. We’re your accomplices. We might not have powers to help you with blacksmithing, but we can at least morally support you.

– My accomplices…

That definitely makes me feel better.

– Sorry in advance, but I’ll be bothering you two a lot.

– Please. It’s my duty as a maid to help you.

– I might not be a maid and I might be useless, but I’m a guardian! You can use my fortress as much as you want. Feel free to exploit my subordinates too. I have a lot of them.

I don’t think I’d go that far.

But using her fortress would be very helpful. Maybe her subordinates can help me with equipment and stuff.

– So, what do you think, vice-pres?

I turned to Feria who had been following us saving her distance.

I don’t blame her. She was supposed to be my bodyguard, and now she’s involved in this fiasco.

– You really went deep this time. This is not an easy task, Takaya. It’s not unusual for holy and demonic weapons to take hundreds of years to be made. But, if you somehow manage to get through this, it would be the best learning experience you could wish for. Of course, I’ll try to help as much as I can. So get ready.

Adding a “Besides, I don’t want to die” at the end, Feria flicked my forehead.

– Thank you. I look forward to your guidance.

– That’s what I like to hear. Also, I’m not that “grandmaster” of yours, so don’t expect me to treat you like a kid.

– Thank you, little santa elf. Our destiny rests on your shoulders too. (Mumuruu)

– MY NAME IS FERIA.

– Come on, you two. I see a castle over there, is that it?

– Oh, right. The Gana Vares is the magical fortress assigned to the guardian in the northeast. The one you’re seeing is just an illusion.

Mumuruu faced to our left.

– Show yourself! O’Castle of mine! Dispell!

A large black pile of blocks appeared to form a castle in the direction Mumuruu pointed her trident at.

This is where Mumuruu’s subordinates reside.

Are they strong? Are they dangerous?

I readied myself just in case.

But it wasn’t necessary.

– Aahh, Our demon idol back! Our empress! Mumuruu-sama!

– What? (Takaya)
