Chapter 565
Chapter 565
During the evening of that day, a letter arrived at Lyells mansion.
Sensing the delivery persons presence, Maria went to accept the letter, but color drained from her face as she read it.
She rushed inside the mansion and barged in where Lyell was.
Dear, its terrible! Fina has!
Huh? What about Fina?
Lyell turned towards Maria, surprised at her expression. He had his trusty Holy Sword in hand and was in the middle of maintaining it. Lyells surprise was quite natural. It was extremely rare for Maria, who always had a smile on her face, to change so much.
Moreover, Fina always had the Carbuncle with her and it was thoroughly making sure that she was safe.
The Carbuncle wasnt such a strong monster, but it could freely use various spells so it was far more dependable than an average Adventurer. He never considered that something would happen to Fina since the Carbuncle was protecting it.
It says It says Fina was kidnapped!
Maria held out the letter while screaming those words. Hearing her yell Cortina came into the living room too. And hearing her words, she became petrified.
W-What?! Is that true?
I dont know. But she still hasnt returned.
Lets first confirm where she is though if she really has been kidnapped, we cant really find her so easily. Searching for her if shes nowhere to be found would take a lot of time.
Then Ill call Maxwell. If he uses Search, he should find her whereabouts right away.
With Maxwells searching spell, he could find her whereabouts if he designated her socks or clothes as the searching target. Unless they were using an anti-detection spell, it shouldve allowed them to find her.
The letter is telling me to head to Kolbo village.
Where is that?
I think it was about three days distance southwest from here. Its close to Raums border.
Why there of all places? Do they want me to do something there?
I dont know. But Right, Gadius is in Stollar and its closer to that place. Lets ask him for help too.
R-Right. Nicoles also there too. Oh, I have to contact Ashella too!
Why are you getting the Pope?
I mean, she baptized Fina. She should help with this much
They were Six Heroes when they acted like it. They utilized their excelling abilities to take action and contacted collaborators in every place.
As a result, they reached from Pope Ashella to even King Elliot of the United Alliance, growing the scale of the situation even more.
Gadius got called by the Guild, and when he saw the report, he rushed out, losing his usual composure. Dwarves werent very nimble due to their build, but he had enough experience to make up for that. He moved his legs most optimally and centered his body weight efficiently to accelerate himself even further.
He maintained his pace with his practically bottomless stamina, and he returned to his inn, Greatshields Protection.
ReiNicole, is Nicole around?!
Bweh! Cough, cough?!
Yeah, Nicole just got surprised by the yell and choked on her food over here.
Looking to the corner of the cafeteria, Nicole was choking violently, the fruit juice having gone down her trachea. Finia was diligently tending to her from the side.

The one who reported the state carefreely was Michelle, who was together with the two as always. Even a dwarf like him could see that the three had grown into charming ladies, but he had no presence of mind to care about that now.
You knew teleportation magic right? Were returning to the pioneer village!
Huh? Whats with
Fina was No, its bad to say that here.
Hearing that much, Nicole realized that something must have happened to Fina.
She stopped eating and stood up, gazing sharply at Gadius. The fruit juice was all over her collar so she didnt look exactly good.
Got it, lets go. Are you ready, Gadius?
I can move as long as I have my shield with me.
The northern village was Nicoles home. She barely needed to take anything with her. Her trusty gauntlets had a transfer spell cast on them so they could be recalled any time and didnt need to be brought along either.
Okay. Come, Gadius.
They moved to a private room for discussion where Nicole got the particulars from Gadius.
I see then it would be better to have searching skills, right? In that case, Ill go as Reid this time. Can you tell them thatNicolewent ahead to Kolbo?
Sure, but what about your comrades?
I would love to have Michelle with me, but too many people would be a problem. Me, you, and one more person would be best Ideally, Finia, who knows my situation.
You could only take two people along, huh. No helping it then. Given the situation, well have Cloud and Michelle stand-by here.
Letting too many people know could provoke the criminal too. But seeing Reid and Finia together, they could suspect something. But fortunately,Reidshows up from time to time there, so Ill just pretend I was simply dropping by.
What should I do?
You and Finia shouldhmm, spend about an hour outside the village and come after that. Ill come and get you if an emergency arises. They believe I transform with the Polymorph spell, so it wouldnt be weird that I can use the lower-level teleportation spell too.
I see. I feel frustrated to waste an hour, but I suppose it would be safer that way.
In a case of kidnapping, if you tried to force your way with many people it could provoke the culprit and endanger Finas life.
It had to be dealt with quietly and promptly. For that, Reids power would be necessary. Finias versatility was also desirable to have.
Call Finia for me. Ill prepare for the teleportation in the meantime.
Got it. Ill be right back.
Saying that, Gadius rushed out of the room.
