Chapter 96 The Struggling People
While Leaf Chemist drove away the faceless monster and began his pursuit.
On the other hand, the witch Mercury and the Demon Lord Vandesdelka...
""AAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!""
They were searching for the followers of the evil god.
For their investigation, they visited the ruins in the capital city.
And there, they encountered it.
The faceless monster...
"I-IT HAS NO FACEEEEE!"
"H-hey, wait! Don't leave me behind and run ahead!"
"No way, no way, no way! I can't deal with this MONSTERRRRRRRR!"
Mercury and the others were being chased by the faceless monster.
Especially Mercury, who was completely hopeless when it came to the occult.
While investigating the inside of the ruins, they came across this monster and hastily ran away.
"Darn it! It's a dead end!"
"AAAAHHHHHHHHH IT'S OVER! OH NOOOO!"
The two of them are cornered with no escape.
But then, Vandesdelka makes up his mind to fight.
"Well, then, there's no choice but to do it! Mercury-san!"
"You got it! I-I can't handle this! It's seriously too scary!"
...Useless. Those words, the Demon Lord swallows them.
Vandesdelka readies his staff and approaches the enemy.
"Urgh...!"
With a voice that's far from what a maiden should sound like, Vandesdelka psyches himself up and swings his staff.
The tip cleanly hits the faceless monster's head and crashes into the wall.
"We did it!?"
"No..."
The fallen monster gets back up.
The head that Vandesdelka struck is dented.
"Mercury-san, this is bad. The opponent is really dangerous. Use your Appraisal Eye to see their true identity... Mercury-san?"
While standing, Mercury fainted.
It seems that she reached the peak of fear after seeing a monster with a caved-in head.
Indeed, a faceless monster appears just like a regular human except for its face.
This probably added to the fear.
"Ugh...! What a pain!"
Vandesdelka held Mercury and prepared for battle.
"In this cramped space, I can't use magic easily... I'll have to restrain the power... [Gravity Press]!"
He activated a composite magic, gravity magic.
The faceless monster was crushed with a thud!
As a result, a large hole opened in the floor, and the monster disappeared into it.
"Phew..."
For now, the crisis was averted.
However, a new problem arose.
Vandesdelka peered into the large hole.
"Wow... it's quite spacious down there. What on earth is...?"
Although he didn't know, if he didn't investigate, he would be killed (by Merlin).
"Let's go, senpai..."
"Ughh~..."
Carrying the fainted Mercury, the Demon Lord jumped into a hole.
