Isekai Maou to Shoukan Shoujo no Dorei Majutsu-Volume 12 Chapter 5 part4

Part 4

The sky clouded over.

She thought that a rain cloud had suddenly been made.

The sunlight was covered, and the surroundings became dim.

「……What?」

The dark clouds that swirled in the sky changed into the outline of what seemed like the face of a person.

It was an old man.

The old man, who had sunken in eyes, wrinkled and cracked skin, and missing teeth, raised a hoarse voice.

The rasping voice came pouring down like rain.

『That is the one! Without a doubt! The 《young vessel girl》 is before mine eyes! Guh! Geh!』

Leaving behind coughs that sounded like blood would come out from his throat, the figure that floated in the sky changed.

What was drawn next was──

「……Eh? Me?」

It was the figure of Rem as she was currently hiding in the shadow of a building at an angle that was looking at her from somewhere above.

She felt an extraordinary sign from the Gelmedo Imperial Army.

As if countless gazes were gathered on her.

Heavy footsteps came approaching.

When she peeked from the shadow of the building──

The Purple Violanos showed no sign of being vigilant of the surroundings, and leisurely advanced through the communication bridge.

『Ahh, so that's it……You, are the one! Because you……were in a place like this……do you know how many people were taken away!』

It was a voice that sounded like it was resounding from the bottom of the earth.

──What is she talking about?

Rem was unable to understand. And she didn't care about their circumstances.

All she was able to understand, was that she was made into their target.

She felt terror.

However, this was convenient for her role as a decoy.

Surprisingly, Violanos threw away its gun.

Was it out of bullets?

No, if she recalled the words of the old man that floated in the sky earlier……

──Do they plan on capturing me alive?

Rather than simply killing, being captured without being killed was far harder. The situation became better for Rem.

That is what she thought but.

The sounds of the fighting became intense in all directions.

The Imperial soldiers that had been keeping their distance the whole time could be seen closing in.

「Go! Go! Go! Get her! Capture the young vessel girl!」

In response to that, the Church soldiers also took their weapons in hand and stood up.

「Don't let them get close! Fight back」

Rem sensed it──The Gelmedo Imperial soldiers that were in this land, were all heading towards her.

*Zokuri* A chill went down her spine.

*Dan!* Violanos kicked the ground. It was fast.

She was surprised, thinking "so it was able to run that keen and nimbly".

Easily breaking through the Church soldier's defensive formation──it charged into the place Rem was hidden at.

It came right in front of her in one go.

『Like hell I'll let you get away!』

「Kuh……!?」

There was no reason for her to settle down helplessly in that gigantic steel hand. Rem also kicked the ground and broke into a run.

『I said that I wouldn't let you get away!』

A flashy explosion happened on the back of Violanos, which was hot on her heels.

The purple shell was broken and fell.

『Kyaaaaaaー!?』

Contrary to her frightening voice, Migurta's scream was surprisingly cute.

The collapsed Violanos placed a hand on the wall of a building and tried to stand up.

It was there that another magic stone came flying in on it.

This time, the ground was upheaved, and the gigantic Magimatic Sol fluttered through the sky like a doll that a child threw.

『AAAAAAAAAAHー!?』

It was Alicia.

She came out from the shadow of a building, and threw a magic stone.

「Rem-sama, please run away!」

「…………Right!」

Rem hesitated, but she followed her words.

In order to protect the communication bridge, they needed to defeat that purple Magimatic Sol──that initial situation had not changed.

However, she now became the target of all of the Gelmedo Imperial soldiers.

──I need to think about how to survive!

In the sky, Rem's figure as she was running through the town was projected. She was being monitored. With this, it would be impossible for her to hide or secretly escape outside of the royal capital.

What should she do!?

Heavy footsteps could be heard from the front.

Violanos went around in front of her!?

That was wrong.

What appeared after mowing down trees throughout the town was, a white Magimatic Sol holding a gigantic shield.

『There she isー!! I found her!』

With a child-like voice, the operator shouted.
