When he realized that he had appeared in the hotel, Shade did not hear anyone greeting him immediately, but instead heard a rumbling sound.
Elements and spirits are colliding, and the light of thaumaturgy shines outside the hotel. Standing by the bonfire on the first floor and looking around, a few injured girls are sitting by the fire to heal themselves. Tifa, Hayley and Miss Decker are not there.
Indoors, Dorothy and Lesia stood at the door, with the five-ring life ring suspended behind them.
Only Agelina, who was holding the cat, walked towards Shade. Although Agelina was "refugeed" here tonight, she was still dressed brightly, at least as she had been until the last time Shade left.
And now, the outer skirt of the double-skirted skirt worn by the little princess has been torn off, and a brown jacket that is a bit long, but durable and close-fitting is worn on the outside of the dress. Her red hair is completely tied up.
Tucked behind the head, both hands were wearing the standard fire-resistant and corrosion-resistant leather gloves used by magicians when preparing potions. One hand was holding the cat, and the other hand was holding a basket containing empty potion bottles.
Shade has never seen Agelina dressed like this. Although he has never praised her, in fact, in his impression, Agelina, who is not as tall and not as prominent as her sister and aunt, is more like
A carefree princess living in a fairy tale world. Shade had never imagined that she would change her clothes like this and recycle potion bottles on the first floor.
If she could put a few smears of pot ash on her face, Agelina would look even more interesting now.
But her attire also meant that the situation in the hotel was quite bad, and even Agelina was asked to do something.
"Shad!"
She shouted to Shade, and Dorothy and Lesia at the door also turned to look at Shade.
Shade, who returned this time, originally just wanted to say hello to the girls, so he went to welcome the last dinner. In addition to a few rips in his clothes, even the wound on his face was unknowingly exposed in the rain.
Healed automatically.
"I'm fine."
He said this, patted Agelina on the shoulder, and then walked towards the writer and the princess with his sword. Seeing that both of them were fine, Shade walked out of the hotel with their worried expressions.
Just as Shade thought, the situation in the hotel at this time was almost exactly the same as when they arrived more than forty minutes ago. Countless strange chimera monsters rushed out of the forest, heading towards this hotel that did not belong to them from all directions.
The hotels on the island launched an attack. More than half of them can use the power of space.
Under the cover of the thick fog, the chimera monsters became more powerful than before. Although the number of girls in the hotel who could resist had doubled, they still could not gain an advantage against such a large number of enemies.
.
Among them, the most terrifying giant-shaped eight-handed monster in the forest that Shade saw at the end of the forest actually came here.
Tifa of the eighth ring and several other high-level sorceresses were outside the main entrance of the hotel, welcoming this enemy that could already be classified as an evil thing. Without this thing, everyone in the hotel should still be able to repel this round.
attack.
"Tifa!"
Shade's voice penetrated the rain curtain. The black-haired maid who was trying to use the trees in the forest as a magic material to seal the monster's left foot turned around and saw a long sword being thrown towards her.
Reaching out to hold the [Night Watcher] thrown by Shade, the maid swung a sharp sword light and chopped down three monsters that were a combination of mosquitoes and pigeons flying from her head. Then her long skirt followed in the rain.
The movement of turning around bloomed like a flower, the tip of the sword pierced the ground, and while the eight-ring life ring behind him radiated spiritual light, the big trees swaying in the wind and rain were finally successfully awakened.
The activated tree men that made a buzzing sound rushed towards the giant's right leg one after another, hugging the target and sprouting roots again. The giant who tried to continue moving had to lower his head to check after finding that his right foot could not move:
"Ho~"
The roar was not simply to vent anger, the profanity in the sound wave disturbed the mental stability of everyone around. However, the girls flying in the air still took this opportunity to step up their attacks, and Shade, who was standing at the door of the hotel, held [You
Staff of Ketrasil] Take a deep breath:
"Thunder Gun!"
The dazzling white thunder clung to the surface of the long staff, and was then thrown by Shade at the giant's head.
The thunder passed through the rain curtain, but was caught by the giant's hands in the air. The silver-white thunder briefly paralyzed the two hands, but this did not help the battle.
"The thorn of love!"
A pink halo suddenly appeared in the silvery thunder, and then in the piercing scream that almost pierced the eardrums, even the monsters around the woods began to retreat in fright.
This giant-shaped monster doesn't know what kind of transformation it has undergone. Its soul is extremely powerful and cannot be directly transformed into pink crystals by the "Sting of the God of Love". However, the severe pain caused by its soul still makes it unable to control its body. On one foot
Being entangled by the tree people, he fell forward wailing.
I don't know which sorceress used "Feliana's Witch's Light" to blind its eyes, and I don't know who controlled the shadow spikes to pierce its heart. As the light flashed, everyone caught it.
He took this hard-won opportunity to launch a final attack on the monster.
Shade didn't even have to take action. The monster fell heavily to the ground and died at the door of the Green Lake Hotel shortly after.
Its body did not stay here, but gradually melted into blood, which penetrated into the dark red earth together with the rain.
The other monsters also retreated amidst the giant's dying screams, and the ceremony in the Green Lake Hotel was resumed again. The spiritual light spread from the basement to the wall, and soon spread around the hotel. Except for a few ladies who needed to continue to investigate outside
Except for this, most of the girls, who were completely soaked, were able to return to the hotel to rest.
Tifa also came back with Shade's sword and staff.
Although she is the eighth ring, she did not use shelter from the rain in order to fight better. The black and white maid dress she still wore even during the battle was completely soaked, and her long wet black hair was also stuck to it.
on the face.
But because of the rain, the ordinary clothes clung to the body, making the already proud figure more obvious. Shade obviously noticed that the eyes of Lesia and Dorothy who greeted everyone at the door were wrong.
, after Tifa followed him through the door, Agelina, who greeted them with a smile and hugged the cat, suddenly froze.
Shade even believed that he had the ability to read other people's minds in an instant:
"How can it be so big?"
It was Miss Hailey Aurora who understood the shocked expressions of the other girls and hurried over to help the black-haired head maid steam dry her clothes. Because everyone, including Shade, was too embarrassed to go directly to see the maid.
, so no one noticed the faint smile on her face.
In short, the second wave of attacks faced by the Green Lake Hotel was passed without any danger. After most of the people came back, Shade put the bottle of No. 1 holy water on the table and left it for them, which also meant that
What to do next:
"It's too late. I probably won't come back from this trip. The Edwards family dinner is about to be held, and this night's events will be over soon."
He took out the invitation, and everyone else understood what Shade meant.
Although they had known that they would meet at this moment, when it came to parting, Dorothy and Lesia were still reluctant to let Shad leave like this. They hugged Shad respectively, and Dorothy even took out the bag that Shad had been keeping.
That angel feather she has here.
Knowing Edwards' story, she knew exactly how useful this feather, which had two chances to be used, would be tonight:
"Come back early."
She kissed the side of Shade's face gently.
Shade hesitated to speak. He would not hide the things he just learned from the fortune teller from the two girls under any circumstances. But now is obviously not a good time to talk about these things. Maybe he will wait until he gets the solution from the fortune teller.
It’s not too late to tell them the method.
Everyone else also said goodbye to Shade and sent him to the door of the hotel together. However, before leaving, Shade still confessed some things:
"Lecia, Dorothy, no matter what happens tonight, please don't leave the hotel. Stay with Tifa and watch Agelina and little Mia."
"Meow~"
The cat, which had done nothing tonight, meowed.
Shade felt that what he said was too absolute:
"If the Green Lake Hotel is invaded, you should follow the large army and leave. The big witches will be here soon, and I should solve the trouble here soon. Remember, never, never get close to the town,
Don’t even get close to the old Edwards house. If you really encounter an accident and you get close there, don’t believe anyone’s words. Of course, the most important thing tonight is—”
He looked at Lesia and Dorothy in front of him:
"Don't try to make two into one."
As he said that, he opened his arms and hugged them together. There were many girls around. Normally, Shade would not do such a bold thing, but the situation tonight was special.
"What if you really need us?"
In the embrace, Lesia's voice came.
Shade was silent for a moment:
"I have thought about this possibility. If you are really needed, you will have to make a decision after reuniting with Grace and Helen. Also, if you encounter space transfer again, you must ensure your own safety as the first priority.
,Do you understand?"
Letting Grace be with Helen, Lecia, and Dorothy was a special method that Shade came up with based on the rule of "E Pluribus Unum" among the chosen ones. Although "she" said that Shade was
While trying to confuse the Chosen One ceremony, Shade felt that it might actually succeed. After all, there are few things in this world that are absolutely successful.
There was not enough time, and this hug did not last too long. After letting go of them, Shade nodded to the other girls who gathered around him, and then entered the forest again without looking back. In a few flashes of his body, he completely
Disappeared in the fog.
