(Author note: there is still a cruel descriptive scene)
Editted by buboleche
⟨Wood Garden⟩ dungeon, 12thF . Charon and the remaining members of the ‘Authority Leaf’ clan were running with all their might .
“Charon, there’s a fork in front . Which way?” “Right, that is a shortcut to go to 11thF so we take the left . That brat will catch up if we’re slow . After turning, there will be a grassland . We walk past the tunnel and there is a fountain . If there are no monsters there, we can escape using the teleport pedestal from over there . ”
Charon wasn’t aware that near their destination, there was already someone waiting for them .
“We’ve been waiting for you . ” Marifa greeted the party while lifting the edge of her skirt graciously . Charon was confused at the sight . Why was there a dark elf dressed in a maid uniform here?
“What do you want? We’re in a hurry . ” The party drew their weapon and looked menacing but Marifa just smiled at them before the next second her face turned expressionless . (Tl note: I can imagine the horror scene)
“In place of my master… I have to give you guys a lesson . ”
“Darn, is she one of the brat’s companions?”
In a flash, one of the men had already pulled his bow and mounted his arrow . The projectile flew like a lightning and aimed in between Marifa’s eyebrows . However the arrow never reached Marifa . Sukke, who was standing behind her, stopped the arrow using the fur on its body that was extended forward .
(Tl note: somehow I imagined the fur to be like long hair flying in the air lol)
“What’s that? A Sheepwolf blocked my arrow?” “Stupid, that sheepwolf is only a rank 3 monster . How can it block your arrow?”
Charon looked at his party hopelessly and erected a 【Barrier】 once Marifa took out her bow . It was a common sense that the dark elves were a race that was adept at handling the bow . Marifa’s arrow bolted off and hit the trees overhead the party . Only the wood chips fell and hit them .
“Hahaha, what was that? It missed by far . This dark elf isn’t skilled at all . ”
Charon was taking precautions since she was one of Yu’s party members but seeing her arrow miss, he was relieved . The other party members were also smiling and mocking her .
“Hahaha, I was scared for a moment there . Pretty girl, how about you come with me? I’ll make sure to give you lots of love . Uaaaaah~” The man who was talking suddenly crouched down . His body was sweating and just by looking at him, he was not in good condition .
“Hey, what happened? Gaaah!”
Charon tried to help the man but suddenly he also felt severe pain creeping on his body . Charon looked around and saw that the remaining party members were also in the same condition .
“Don’t you know the graveness of your sins?” Marifa was now looking down at Charon with Sukke by her side . Charon noticed that at Marifa’s hands, there were some wriggling things . At first it looked like a regular black dress glove . However if one looked closer, the black glove was made up from several thousands living ants .
“Th-th-that are insects? Ugh…”
The insects on Marifa’s hands were called ‘Bullet Ants’ . The ants’ bite could cause terrible pain and the real effect doesn’t need to be explained . (Tl note: finally Marifa second job skill unleashed)
“So… you missed… your arrow… on purpose . ”
Charon knew that he didn’t have much time remaining . One by one, his party members died because of shock caused by the severe pain .
One of them managed to resist and tried to throw a hatchet towards her but Coro came out from the shadows and bit the man’s wrist . It was disconnected from his arm instantly .
“Gyaaa! My arm!”
“Coro, that’s not good . Eating filthy thing can hurt your stomach . ” Marifa as if she was deaf, ignored the screams and stroked Coro’s head . She took the wrist from Coro’s mouth and threw it aside . Sukke was also rubbing his head on Marifa’s feet .
“Charon, the leader of ‘Authority Leaf’ . Let me end your suffering . ” Charon didn’t understand what Marifa was saying . His whole body was cringing because of the intense pain . There was no need to do anything else to kill him .
Charon was feeling pain all over his body but he already prepared a means of escape, the second rank 【Black Magic】, 《Fire Wall》 . A wall of fire, around 5 meters tall separated himself and Marifa . That scorching pillar even enveloped his party members who didn’t have the strength left to flee .
Th echoing screams of the dying ‘Authority Leaf’ members could be heard as Marifa tried to extinguish the fire using the first rank 【Spirit Magic】, 《Water Ball》 . There were only the charred corpses of the ‘Authority Leaf’ members remaining .
“Even after killing his own companions, he is still fleeing alone . Well, there is still Nina and Lena . ” Next to Marifa, Coro and Sukke only tilted their necks, confused .
The girls had caught up with Yu when he was battling Charon . At that moment, Marifa’s sharp hearing cought Charon’s plan for running away . The girls understood that Yu would treat the fairies first so they decided to catch Charon with their own hands .
Marifa was waiting at the intersection while Lena was at the door to 11thF and Nina was at the teleport pedestal . However, Nina and Lena didn’t saw anybody pass by . Marifa didn’t want to use the teleport pedestal to search the entrance since she was currently acting without considering her master’s orders . Although she couldn’t kill Charon, at least she was able to injure him greatly .
… . .
At the entrance to the ⟨Wood Garden⟩ dungeon a man was walking and limpling . It was so hard for him to even walk a couple of meters .
“Guu… I made it… huuf, to think I needed to use a third rank potion . ”
The man was Charon . The moment he casted 《Fire Wall》, he had also burned himself in order to kill the bullet ants . The price that he had to pay in order to escape was so great- the burns on his body, he even had to sacrifice a high rank teleport stone . This item couldn’t be bought at the item shop, even at the capital only some noble could acquire it . Even the third rank potion couldn’t heal his current condition .
“I need to go back to the city… no… I need to return to the capital . When I get some reinforcements, let’s see what kind of face that brat is gonna show me . There’s one of Houdon kingdom top 5 knights . Even if that brat is strong, what can he do against him?”
“Sir, what happened to you?” In front of Charon, an old man in butler clothing appeared . Charon immediately raised his guard . He even prepared to take out the dagger that was attached to his waist . The forest of marma was relatively safe but it was before the dungeon was found . Right now, there’s no way a commoner would come to this place . For that reason, this old man was suspicious and made Charon wary .
“Butler’s appearance… old man, are you that dark elf’s friend?”
“Dark elf? I don’t know what you’re talking about but are you from the ‘Authority Leaf’?”
“Yes, that’s right . I’m the leader of ‘Authority Leaf’, Charon . I wonder why you asked . ”
“Hoo… you are Charon Vladez? Your appearance is different from my image so it was hard to recognize you . ”
“So what if I looked different . What is your business?”
“You might not even understand how different your appearance is . However I am happy to have found you here . Although it is late, my name is Nungu . ”
Nungu said that while holding a mirror that reflected Charon’s appearance . He screamed when he saw his own reflection .
“What is this? Is this really me?” Charon’s face was something like a barnacle . Small larvae could be seen moving under the skin on hs face .
“Did you perhaps encounter an insect master? If you don’t take care of them quickly, they will hatch inside your body and eat it from inside . ” “HUAA! This must be the work of that dark elf! I won’t forgive her . I’ll kill her when we meet again . Ah, it’s so itchy . My face, arm, legs, my whole body is itchy . ”
Charon took off his charred armor and rolled on the ground . On his body, bulging flesh like a ballon could be seen and from the insides, a small larvae hatched . Each time it happened, Charon tasted extreme pain that he could never even imagine .
“Well, I also have an errand for Charon-san . Can you deliver a message?”
“Ugh… what is it?”
“Dogs of the minister aren’t allowed to roam in my territory . Everyone that comes to Comer city will suffer a nightmare . Please convey the message . ”
“Y-Yo–” Charon wanted to say something but he was interrupted . His eyes that were looking at Nungu turned backwards and lost he finally ran out of energy .
“Ah, I have to thank Yu-san . Meat pies will be good . ” After once again confirming Charon’s death, Nungu disappeared into the forest .
