Chapter 158 158 – A Charge



The next day, Yua jumped from one roof to another in Silkdale town.

“Are you really feeling good, Yua?” Kimi, on the back of the kunoichi, asked.

The kunoichi wore a faint smile. “Thank you for asking. I’m fine.”

Yua stopped on one of the roofs of the building, then peered out from there. Two men were walking the streets, each carrying a sack.

“Aah, I want to be the chosen one to pray before that holy dress.” One of them muttered.

“Don’t be sad, my friend.” The other man replied. “We haven’t had the chance not because we’re useless, but because Lord Mattias still needs us to carry out his orders.”

“Well, I’m pleased to support this community, but I want to be near that dress. I want to know how it feels doing that.”

The kunoichi looked at Kimi.

“Are you sure?” Although her face was still expressionless, Kimi’s tone clearly showed concern. “Maybe the pain is more intense than yesterday. I don’t know what will happen to you.”.

Yua nodded while still smiling. “We can’t go back anymore, can we?”

“Okay, then.” Kimi took her lute from her back. “Maybe it’s a bit longer until you can activate your illusion skill. I can’t play it as hard as yesterday. Those two guys can hear I’m playing this too loud.”

They moved to several houses, a bit far from the two members of the dress cult. Then, Yua stood up and concentrated while Kimi stuck the tip of her lute onto the kunoichi’s back.

The petite elf started playing the same melody as yesterday but using a slow and soft tempo.

The kunoichi could feel a surge of energy flowing through her body. Her brain tries to imagine what she wants to display as vividly as possible, as real as possible.

Quite a long time passed. And finally, the two walking dress cultists looked back, seeing the thousands of naked camp members running towards them from a distance.

***

Some distance away from Kimi and Yua, Elise and the others peeked out from an alley.

“Those are our friends.” Diana hissed when she saw several people waiting outside a house.

Lynn turned her head back, observing Rupert’s still bandaged body.

“You should have asked Kimi for healing magic again.” The woman with the big braid sighed.

Rupert shrugged. “Well, she’s used it on me twice. I want her to save her mana to do that illusion skill.”

“Shh…” Vin put his index finger to his lips. “Looks like it’s time.”

Elise narrowed her eyes when she saw someone who came rushing to those people. Kaz met the man and listened to him speak in a panicked gesture.

“Yua’s illusion skill worked,” Raymund told his servant. He could hear the conversation due to using Ciel, the scout bee. “They’re looking at thousands of people about to attack them.”

However, Elise and the others had not moved from their hiding place. They waited until those people left, perhaps to help the inevitable ‘war.’

All that was left were a few guards, Zak and also Greyson.

The female warrior signaled, and they all came out of hiding with Mona running in the lead.

The guards flinched but immediately charged forward according to Zak’s orders.

“Welcome to Silkdale!” Running at the forefront of the group, Greyson let out a loud laugh. He wasn’t naked anymore but wore colorful clothes like the townspeople.

Mona pounced on the bald woman’s leg until he almost fell. Then, Elise accelerated her run, caught Reynold’s body, then jumped high. She flipped over her enemy’s body mid-air, making that man’s head face downwards.

The female warrior slammed Reynold’s head into the marble street, making a loud thud, forcing the crowd to cringe. Reynold immediately fell unconscious.

Elise used that move because Greyson had avoided her charging thrust. She knew that man was no ordinary warrior.

She then drew her sword to hit the people who came at her. Mona helps by pouncing some of them to the ground.

And finally, she had reached Zak.

“Bring it on!” The man challenged, already at the ready with his knife.

“Let me fight him!” Rupert passed Elise, then tackled his younger brother until they both fell to the ground.

“Let us take care of these people!” Vin replied, blocking the attack of one of the opponents. “You two go to that house, Elise, Lynn!”

Parts of the marble walkway cracked, then chunks of soil and stone came out, trapping the cultists.

Elise gave orders to her dog because there were still a few cultists free. “You help them, Mona!”

The pet barked, then turned around and ran to one of the enemies.

Lynn lined Elise and said, “I can’t believe we got this close with fewer people. We do have to think smarter.”

As soon as they entered the house in question, they were met by several people in it. Most of them looked weak, so Lynn and Elise could knock them out with ease.

“They probably just carried out that ritual you spoke of, Elise,” Lynn commented as she ran up the stairs. She then kicked someone who was trying to attack her from behind.

Elise pushed a woman off the stairs, then answered. “It seems so.”

Once on the second floor, Elise used her sword to break the lock of a door. As soon as the door opened, she had to dodge a fireball. However, Lynn had no luck. After being hit by that fireball, she bounced into the air, then fell down the stairs.

Feeling that she didn’t have time to check on her partner’s condition, Elise entered the room, this time blocking a flying chunk of ice.

“Welcome, O brave warrior.” Mattias Laitinen, who was standing beside the purple dress, bowed. “Sorry for my greeting just now. However, if you don’t want to listen to me, I will give you something more painful than the two things before. So, please don’t attack me just yet.”

“Listen to him for a second, Elise.” Raymund gave instructions, feeling something odd about the sorcerer’s smile.

The female warrior then lowered her sword.
