Subaru Natsuki, who returned from the new Three Kingdoms

Unfortunately, although Mary was young, she was not stupid.

Mary looked up, but the pleading in her eyes was quickly suppressed by her wariness.

"What do you want Mary to do?"

"It's a very simple thing!"

Roswaal raised his hand and pointed into the depths of the forest.

"I will break the barrier for you. You will command the monsters to attack the village near the manor, drawing the knights and maids there!"

"I will take this opportunity to enter the dungeon and bring out Lady Capella and Elsa!"

Mei Li gripped the hem of her clothes tightly, her knuckles turning slightly white.

“But…Merry is no match for that man.”

"You don't need to get close to the mansion, nor do you need to fight him."

Roswaal patiently guided him.

"You just need to command the magical beasts in the forest. If you see anything wrong, run away immediately, don't wait for me!"

Mary looked up.

"Can Meryl just run away?"

Of course~

Roswaal answered without hesitation.

"Leave the rescue to me. Just create a disturbance and buy me some time."

Mary looked down at the monster beside her.

Fear and conscience tormented me for a long time.

In the end, her conscience prevailed, and her tense fingers loosened slightly.

"it is good."

"Merry promises you."

Beneath his black robe, Roswaal's lips slowly curled into a smile.

"Alright, let's get started!"

Roswaal raised his hand and gently gestured towards the edge of the forest.

A crack silently appeared in the territory's barrier, before it collapsed completely.

Mary blew a short whistle.

The monsters hiding near the stronghold raised their heads and rushed towards the village.

Merry, on the other hand, stayed deep in the forest and never approached the mansion.

By the time the first scream came from the direction of the village, Roswaal had already taken to the sky again.

……

Time returns to the dungeons of Roswaal's mansion.

Even after Ram left, Elsa, who was still worried about by Melie, remained silent as before.

She kept her head down, but out of the corner of her eye, she kept measuring the distance between the cell door, the key, and Reinhard.

Although he knew that it was almost impossible to escape from under the Sword Saint's nose.

But Elsa still didn't give up.

If Capella breaks the seal, or if there is enough chaos in the dungeon, she will have a chance to escape in the confusion.

As for Subaru Natsuki, who knocked her unconscious and brought her here, she had thought about it repeatedly.

Losing to a black-haired boy she hadn't taken seriously before was indeed beyond her expectations.

When they met at the stolen goods warehouse, his impression of the other person was that they were just a young man with a somewhat "beautiful" appearance.

I never expected him to have such amazing close-combat skills.

In terms of combat acumen, he could even surpass her, who had grown up crawling through piles of corpses...

However, Elsa still did not consider Subaru Natsuki as her main rival.

In her view, Subaru Natsuki was more like a vanguard pushed to the front by Reinhard.

They were responsible for charging forward, fighting desperately, and using incomprehensible ravings to confuse the enemy.

The person who truly orchestrated last night's arrest was most likely this contemporary sword saint.

As long as she avoids Reinhard, given her speed and determination to leave, Subaru Natsuki might not be able to stop her from going.

Just then, the prison door was pushed open.

Subaru Natsuki walked in carrying two bottles of sake.

Just like last week, Subaru Natsuki got up early in the dungeon for three things!

drink wine!

drink wine!

Still drinking!

Animal taming will have to be postponed.

After all, no matter how precious a BMW is, it's still far inferior to fine wine.

Subaru Natsuki glanced at Reinhard, whose face was inexplicably a deep purplish-red, and immediately raised his wine bottle high.

"Reinhard, come, let's drink until we drop today!"

Reinhardt's lips trembled slightly.

The shock of that bowl of soup from that morning hadn't completely subsided when Subaru Natsuki came to him for drinks again.

No, I had to refuse immediately.

Reinhard's gaze swept quickly across the dungeon, and he soon found the reason.

"Sorry, Subaru."

Reinhard glanced at Capella inside the ice crystal.

“I need to watch over her.”

"She doesn't even have legs now, and she's sealed by magic. Do you think she'll grow legs and run away right in front of you?"

Capella's eyelids twitched slightly inside the ice.

Reinhard paused for a moment, forcing himself to lie:

"...This possibility cannot be ruled out."

"Amazing, he speaks the absolute truth right away."

Subaru Natsuki nodded. Since Reinhard really couldn't do it, there was no need to force it.

He decisively turned to Elsa, who was standing to the side.

He extended an invitation to drink.

"Since Reinhard isn't drinking, heroine, how about you have a drink with me?"

Elsa paused for a moment.

How is this any of my business?

Before she could react...

Subaru Natsuki had already pulled out the cork and tilted his head back to take a big gulp.

As the strong liquor went down his throat, he relaxed completely, a look of blissful release finally appearing on his face.

"Good wine!"

"Today we have wine, two heroes, and a fine horse that can't run for the time being."

"The three greatest joys in life have come together!"

"BMW?"

Elsa followed his gaze to the ice crystals.

"You mean...Mom?"

"Exactly."

Subaru Natsuki nodded solemnly.

"She can fly, she can fight, and she can even grow her own flesh. Such a fine steed is hard to find anywhere else in the world, hahaha."

Natsuki Subaru's tone was as casual as if he were showing off a warhorse he had just bought.

Elsa's smile froze.

That's Capela.

Within the organization, everyone can only look up to, fear, and even dare not look directly at the Archbishop of Sin of the "Mother" Witch Cult!

Even now, with only half her body remaining, she is trapped in ice and unable to move.

They are not people that ordinary people can afford to offend.

When Natsuki Subaru describes her.

There was no fear, no pride, only a victory worth showing off.

A chill suddenly ran through Elsa's heart.

He felt he needed to reassess Subaru's status. What kind of god was Subaru that wanted to tame the Archbishop of Sin as a mount?

Could it be...?

Subaru Natsuki was not the vanguard that the Sword Saint pushed to the front.

Reinhard was the sword he specifically sought out to slay his enemies.

Thinking of this, Elsa subconsciously swallowed and became nervous.

Natsuki Subaru turned around and walked towards her, carrying the sake.

"Heroine, ever since we first met at the loot warehouse, haven't you always said you wanted my intestines?"

Elsa's body tensed slightly.

"If you're willing to drink with me, my family might consider giving you our intestines."

Natsuki Subaru patted his belly, looking exceptionally carefree.

"how?"

Elsa did not answer.

She glanced at Subaru Natsuki, then at Capela, who was trapped in the ice.

what is this?

Threat?

If I don't drink with him, will I end up like Capela?

For the first time, Elsa regretted why she had set her sights on someone's intestines.

Reinhard thought he was just observing from the sidelines and that there was nothing to be afraid of.

Subaru's first words almost broke his defenses.

What's with this "drinking with someone and then offering their intestines" nonsense?

He quickly tried to persuade him:

"Subaru, are you really going to drink with the Bowel Hunter?"

"She is a wanted criminal of the kingdom. Her wanted posters are plastered all over the eight thousand miles of the capital."

"what!"
