Chapter 60: Evacuation Site

Chapter 60: Evacuation Site

As I was thinking about this, a figure unexpectedly stood in front of us. A man.

It was an elf man. Along with the ninja girl, he seemed to be a member of the Orc officer’s close circle, and he was the hateful one who had attacked Titania in front of my eyes the other day. I’ll kill him.

The elf girl and the elf man began to talk as I looked at them, swallowing the killing intent I had started to feel. I wonder if they’re brother and sister or something. I’m going to kill them.

The elf man glared at me with a sharp look in his eyes as he talked to her.

Somehow, I think he knows that I humiliated the elf girl. I could see a flicker of hatred in his eyes. I’ll kill him.

I suddenly realized that Ferris was hiding behind me. If you look closely, you can see that the elf girl also seems to be somewhat annoyed to talk to the elf man. Did that man hurt you two as well? I will definitely kill him.

Eventually, the elf girl said goodbye to Ferris and left with the elf man. Be careful on moonless nights. If you do anything wrong, Gevaudan will come for you.

Ferris and I were left alone.

–Hmm?

At that moment, I felt an unexpected gaze.

I turned my head around to find the source of it.

Soon, I spotted an unnatural presence in the flow of alien people far down the road.

It seems to be following us. Maybe it’s an AASPINT?

But there’s something amateurish about their movements. It’s not like they’re trained. Is he playing silly on purpose to look like an alien?

But Ferris, are you still being hunted?

You’ve been marked by humans so persistently, I wonder if you’re not just capable of recovery magic after all. Didn’t Lydia say that Ferris was a member of a magic clan or something?

It’s troublesome …….

I can’t afford to lose Ferris now. I have to use Ferris as bait to get Lydia to remove the controls from my head. If Ferris dies, my plan will be thrown into a complete mess.

Last time, Ferris’ house had easily allowed the Tango team to attack. That revealed to me that the aliens were not very aware of the danger they were in. They probably underestimate humans as insignificant or something like that. They call us subhuman.

Humans are not weak beings. If the special forces came in with a death squad, they could take out an alien or two. If I hadn’t been there that day, Ferris would have been in danger.

When I was a soldier, I used to be able to take out many senior alien officers by sniping.

Aliens are relatively vulnerable to assassination.

I want to take every precaution here.

“?????, Jibodan……?”

I was standing there in the street, thinking silently, and Ferris, with her eyebrows furrowed in worry, said something to me.

I tapped her shoulder with my finger.

“Li, di, a, ……?”

I said Lydia’s name, using the usual first-letter word method.

Ferris’s mouth formed a wavy line shape, her eyebrows also took on a steeper angle formed like a letter ‘?’.

This is……a very bad sign. Lydia.

But I’m going to push through.

I keep pointing to Lydia’s name repeatedly.

Ri, Di, a! Ri, di, a!

My pointing rhythm accelerated, and eventually she gave a small sigh of resignation and began to lead me on.

Lydia’s house was not too far from there.

Oh, …….

Ferris’s house was quite a nice Mediterranean style mansion, but Lydia’s house was just as splendid in the Gothic style. It looked like it would be perfect for a moonlit night.

That girls school is definitely a rich girl’s school. In addition, Ferris, Lydia, the elf girl, and also the dragon girl – apparently called Arshella. When it comes to the four girls, including the one Lydia had mentioned, it is safe to say that they are also the daughters of powerful people.

Ferris took a deep breath and knocked on the front door.

An alien who seemed to be a servant came out from behind the front door. It looked like a demon.

Ferris said a few words, and without waiting for his response, one girl immediately rushed in from the back of the house.

Lydia, out of breath and with a startled look on her face, looked freshly dressed in a rough T-shirt and spats. I guess the rougher you are, the less cloth area you have.

?Ferris coming to see me!! Is this a sign of a natural disaster!!??

Lydia and I were telepathically chatting in the parlor.

?I’ve had the best luck of the day, but I guess I can’t get carried away with that kind of thing……. So, what’s up with you today, Gevaudan??

?Ferris is being followed.?

When I said that, she looked at me for a moment. then, her eyes immediately sharpened.

?Being followed…….by who??

?I don’t know. I don’t know. I think it’s probably the guys from before.?

?Before what??

I told Lydia about the time I participated in the defense of Ferris’ house the other day.

Lydia didn’t seem to know about the incident and was very surprised. Then Ferris and Lydia started talking, and Ferris’s expression became more and more frightened.

?I have to go home. I have to go back for the day. I don’t think they’re going to mess with me right now, but I wanted to tell you as soon as possible. I need your protection.?

The controller in my head starts to buzz when it’s time for me to go somewhere so that I don’t go anywhere on my own. If I continue to ignore it, my brain will burn. I can’t be babysitting Ferris all the time.

Unless the perverted fox woman takes me out on another escort mission, I can’t see Ferris getting killed before then.

I gave Lydia a description of the alien – probably another human in disguise – that had been following me. She looked like a panther.

?So, Lydia. I don’t want them to think I’m capable of conversation. let’s see…… the two of you were walking through the city together with me when I suddenly stopped and fixed my gaze on it. I want it to be a bit vague like Lydia followed my gaze and the guy ran away. I think the people involved know that I can sniff out suspicious people, so I think that will get them going.?

She nodded vigorously at my request.

?Okay, okay, I got it! I’ll tell Phoenicia.?

?Phoenicia??

?Yes. I’ll tell Phoenicia. She’s Ferris’ sister.?

The perverted fox woman = Phoenicia. I finally knew her name.

? I’ll send a messenger to Phoenicia-san today and keep Ferris at my house. Don’t worry, we have a lot of strong people here!…… hehehe.?

With that, Lydia sent a greed-soaked gaze to Ferris’ tail. Drool glistened at the corners of her mouth. You’re making plans for this evening. Such an honest girl. Let me be a little mean to you.

?She’s only here today for my request, not Ferris’s, so don’t play any tricks on her.?

?Yeah…… yeah? Okay, …….?

Lydia was visibly depressed. She’s being honest.

?……You know, Gevaudan really does look like a knight of Ferris.?

??eah??

I tried to sound intimidating, but I hope you got the point.

That was the end of what I could do about Ferris.

When I was about to leave the room to tell Lydia that it was time to go home, she said, ??Wait, wait, wait.? Lydia stopped me by grabbing my arm.

??Since you’re here, why don’t you go and have a chat with Ferris??

But it’s time to go.

??Jibodan……can you hear my voice??

A voice that sounded like the ringing bell echoed in my head.

When I turned around, I saw that Lydia, who had grabbed my arm, was holding Ferris’ hand with her other hand.

??Are you surprised? If I’m touching her, we can communicate like this!?

??I’m surprised.?

??I finally got to hear Jibodan’s voice!?

When Ferris saw me smiling and nodding, her face lit up.

I quickly said.

??I’m Gevaudan, Ferris.?

I quickly corrected her.

??Yes. Lydia told me……but can’t I use Jibodan??

Ferris looked up at me as if begging me.

??…… fine, you can use Jibodan.?

????

My second name is now Jibodan. All thanks to you.

?Thank you for today. You’ve been a great help.?

?You’re welcome!?

Ferris laughed, stopped moving for a moment, and tilted her head to the side.

?……That’s not the voice I was expecting.?

I’m not sure what kind of voice you’re hearing in your mind. At least to me, Ferris and Lydia’s voices sound just as good as their fleshly voices.

My thoughts were interrupted by the cheerful voice of Lydia.

?What? What are you talking about? Ferris~, what did you and Gevaudan doing today? Tell me, tell me!?

?Listen, Lydia. Listen, Lydia, today I went to the butcher shop with Jibodan! Tiriel was there too. Givaudan froze when he was suddenly put in charge of the store.?

We talked a lot after that. I talked and talked and talked until my controller started whining. They made me talk a lot.

Like Abigail, everyone likes to talk too much …….
