Isekai Maou to Shoukan Shoujo Dorei Majutsu Volume 2 – CH 1.08

Part 8

The border of Faltra City’s Southern District and Western District──

Emil’s Adventurer comrades restrained the four attackers.

They also secured the carriage that the attackers prepared and were now preparing to escort them.

Whether it be how his comrades were close by or the restraining tools and skills, it were as if they had come prepared to arrest someone.

Diablo asked a question to Emil.

「You were lucky to have passed by, weren’t you? Was it a coincidence? 」

「It wasn’t a coincidence, my close friend. I know the whereabouts of women in trouble by smell!」

Rem and Shera took about three steps away from him.

Only Alicia expressed a smile, though she did line up with Diablo.

Diablo breathed a sigh.

「Don’t do anything that will make you get arrested by the State Knights, got it?」

「O, of course, that was a joke! The truth is, I heard that a bounty was placed on Shera-chan by Prince Kiira at the Adventurer’s Guild.」

「He really did something foolish.」

「Something like kidnapping is a felony but……The bounty is one hundred million F. It’s an outrageous amount of money. And so, thinking that this would lead to trouble, I searched for Shera-chan together with my companions.」

「Hohou? In other words……You’re also aiming for Shera’s bounty, is that it?」

「There’s no way I would do that! I am the ally of women. I absolutely won’t allow something that would make Shera-chan sad! It was to protect Shera-chan from the idiotic fools!」

So that was the reason.

Concerning Emil, it would probably be alright to trust him.

He was a guy that could prioritize protecting women over his own life.

Diablo nodded.

「That was superb work.」

「Fufu……For me, I was trying to do this as thanks for your assistance the other day. That potion was amazing. After all, on top of healing all of my wounds then and there, I had enough energy to make me not feel sleepy for three days and three nights.」

What Diablo gave to Emil was one of the highest grade potions that would invalidate Bad Statuses for a fixed amount of time in addition to fully recovering HP and increasing parameters.

How he was fine without sleeping was probably because, in the game, 《Sleep》 was one of the Bad Statuses.

How Rem and the others’ facial expressions dimmed from his final words is a fact that he didn’t know of.

It was no good──
