The Original Purpose [Part 2]
“I shall unlOCK the cage!”
The unlucky man who was left inside the magic circle alone shouted. His voice cracked from the nervousness.
“!”
“Idiot, hurry!”
“AAAAHHHHH!”
The moment the cage was unlocked, flames burst forth from the ground and spread to the whole area.
“Hurry and teleport it over!” yelled the chief delegate.
“ARGHHHH!”
The man who unlocked the door and stood the closest to the cage was wrapped in flames and collapsed to the ground.
“EEK!”
The magicians surrounding the magic circle unconsciously flinched and drew back.
“GYAAAAA!”
“EEEEKKKK!”
“AAAHHHH!”
Shrieks suddenly came from the Imperial Army, who had been on standby much further away than the magicians.
They were already way behind their scheduled return time because the King’s rampage made them take longer than expected to regroup and have to wait until the King woke up.
‘Seriously. Just what’s up with this King.
He caused nothing but trouble.’
An unconcealable frown was formed between Leonard’s brows.
“Hm? Right. ...But we will reach the barrier if we go a little further, yes? Y’know, I want to see the barrier once~...”
The King, who was absolutely clueless about Leonard’s impatience, started saying how he wanted to see the barrier now that he had come this far.
“ “Ughh...” ”
The hunters and knights groaned in silence when they heard it. Everyone was already exhausted to retort to the King.
“No, can’t do, Your Majesty. The sun will set soon. We can’t guarantee the journey’s safety either if we encounter monsters with night vision in the dark.”
Arban further added after Leonard for the King.
When facing monsters, the most important thing to do was ascertain [what] the monster was. Distinguishing diverse species of monsters in the dark was quite a difficult task. Moreover, many nocturnal monsters were wicked in nature. Hunters always avoided nighttime when hunting.
“Hm? Ah! Father! Uncle!”
Emma, who was fully enjoying the king’s upper body muscles, called out to her father, Leonard, and uncle, Arban, the moment she swept her gaze around the surroundings.
Emma slightly reflected on herself for being so distracted by the King’s muscles that she realized it only now when it was already late.
They were being surrounded from the front.
“Woah... Are those... the you-know-what I’m thinking of?”
