I ran through the trees at a speed somewhere between walking and running.
I didn’t run, partly because it was an unfamiliar forest path, but also because I didn’t want to be out of breath before we got there.
Chloe, the maid, who was a professional in close combat, was also very thorough about it. She walked gracefully and daintily. Not a single flutter of her skirt, but her expression tightens along the way.
When they got some distance closer, she could hear the sounds of battle with her ears.
“… Five of them. –No, six of them, I think. It seems that a large magical beast and a smaller race are fighting.” (Chloe)
“That’s correct. There are three of the smaller races. There are three of them, and they seem to be outnumbered. One of them is down.”
“The smaller race is probably elves.” (Chloe)
“What is your basis?”
“There is a sound as if a bow is being fired. They’re all very good with bows.” (Chloe)
“Dolls use bows too, right?”
“Yes, but the Doll Tribe prefer mettle more. It is a sign of the elves that they fight with their bows.” (Chloe)
“I see, it’s good reasoning. It’s a pity that they are not the Doll Tribe, but can we help them?”
“The Dolls and elves aren’t on good terms, but that doesn’t mean they would abandon the other.” (Chloe)
Chloe takes out her pocket watch from her pocket.
She’s not about to check the time.
She is a maid who fights with her pocket watch as a weapon.
It shined as she watches the surrounding. She traces the chain of the pocket watch with her finger and puts magic power into it.
Then the blue magical power fully wraps around the pocket watch.
The chain that gained magical power is said to have a “slash” attribute. Chloe demonstrates this immediately.
“Slash!” (Chloe)
With a short cry, Chloe slices through a huge tree.
It’s not like she’s turned into a destroyer of nature.
The reason Chloe sliced through the tree was to exploit her opponent’s weakness.
She sliced through the giant tree and the monster that was attacking the elves.
She sliced through the trunk of the huge tree and the body of the demon. It was a brilliant blow, but Chloe wiped her bloodstained chains and said a few words.
“Is that a filthy ogre running rampant in the forests of my homeland, Bana Forest?” (Chloe)
She looked down at the corpse of an ogre and saw an elf lying next to it with its head chewed off.
“The ogre in the Forest of Bana was exterminated hundreds of years ago in a joint operation between the Dolls and the Elves.” (Chloe)
Chloe questioned, but I reminded her that there was no time to worry about it.
“We don’t have time to ponder that. I want to save the surviving elves.”
Chloe nods to the proposal.
Chloe then set about destroying the second ogre.
“I’m going to bash your brains out!”
Chloe shouted as she put her magic into the watch part of her pocket watch and spun it around, intent on destroying the ogre’s skull.
Chloe’s pocket watch destroys even large rocks.
Even an ogre’s skull could be easily destroyed.
–That is if the pocket watch hit it.
When the second ogre sensed Chloe’s presence, it read her attack behavior and received the pocket watch with its large right hand.
He grabs the watch and smirks.
It seems that this guy is the leader of the ogres.
He pulls the pocket watch from his grip with a jerk.
The slightest movement draws her several meters closer to Chloe, who is overwhelmed by the difference in size, but she doesn’t let that stop her from stomping both feet on the ground.
The chains on her pocket watch tensed as the balance was restored.
In fact, the ogre is drawn all the way to Chloe.
The Ogre opens his mouth with a look of astonishment on his face.
“…That unbelievable power, the lass, is not human.” (Ogre Leader)
“Good answer. I am a girl from the Doll tribe.” (Chloe)
“A girl from the Doll Tribe is in a maid outfit!?” (Ogre Leader)
“It’s true that we, the Dolls, are a nature-loving race, and I’m the only one who went to the city of humans to become a maid.” (Chloe)
Chloe laughs at herself.
“However, not all Dolls are the same. Some of them know the wide world outside the forest and find a master to serve with their hearts, not their swords.” (Chloe)
She then glanced briefly at Sicily, her master who is behind her.
“There are those who are attracted to a noble master, one who is destined to change the world.” (Chloe)
Chloe says this,
“That’s me!” (Chloe)
She raises her voice and puts her strength into her hands.
The huge ogre was drawn even closer to her.
“Nonsense, we’re almost ten times heavier than you!?” (Ogre Leader)
“You’re just being uselessly fat for nothing. My body is made up entirely of muscle fibers and magic fibers!” (Chloe)
With that, Chloe makes the ogre fly into the air.
She starts spinning it around and around.
When Chloe continues to apply centrifugal force to the ogre, she throws the ogre with precise timing.
The ogre heads straight for the giant tree.
When the ogre hits the giant tree with tremendous force, it screams and makes a hole a size larger than the ogre.
If it was a normal creature, it would have broken his spine and that would have been the end of it, but this ogre was a very tough monster.
However, I don’t know if it would make him happy.
The maid who went into battle mode was relentless.
Without a moment’s hesitation, she began to pursue it.
As soon as she lets go of the Ogre, she moves forward and attacks the Ogre that is stuck in the tree without mercy.
Countless fists plunge into the Ogre. The Ogre is unable to avoid them and takes them all in.
In short, his whole body is being beaten to a pulp.
It looks as if the goddess with a hundred fists is in a frenzy of rage, and her rage continues.
Chloe grabs the head of the ogre, which is starting to go limp, and throws it to the side.
She moves at a blinding speed to chase it and kicks the ogre up in the air.
As soon as it reaches its highest point, she swings her hands down with all her might and slams it into the ground.
Chloe executes a series of blows.
“Aerial barrage [Meteor Smash].” (Chloe)
She said.
It’s a cool move, but it’s probably not going to do much damage to the victim.
In fact, the ogre that had been hit by the attack had already turned into a mute corpse.
For a moment, I felt sorry for him, but that thought vanished when I saw the bodies of elves lying there, their heads crushed and their guts sticking out.
Even the gentle Sicily seems to have come to that conclusion and is caring for the injured elves, not worrying about the ogres.
“You’re as kind as ever your Highness.” (Chloe)
She was a little breathless, but it was hard to believe she was the same girl who had just attacked like a demon.
I was amazed and offered words of praise.
“You fought well. Thank you for your hard work.”
“You’re welcome,” Chloe replied, lifting the hem of her skirt. Chloe lifts her skirt, dusting it off. As expected of a Princess’ maid. She is the epitome of etiquette.
As I was thinking this, she spoke to me.
“It’s rare to see an ogre in the Bana Forest.” (Chloe)
“I heard you have driven them out hundreds of years ago.”
“Yes, the Elves and the Dolls, who did not get along well, fought together and exterminated them.” (Chloe)
“Wow, that’s unusual. Do you know the details of that time?”
“I’m a young damsel.” (Chloe)
“I heard that the Doll Tribe are a fighting clan, also you have quite the long time as youths.”
In other words, I would like to say that the age of a woman from the Doll tribe is unknown, but Chloe looked peeved.
“Leon-sama, it is a violation of etiquette to ask a woman about her age.” (Chloe)
Chloe puffed out her cheeks, which was quite cute, she said as she gazed at me.
“Leon-sama, you’ve been looking at me as if I were a monster, but if you ask me, Leon-sama is the monster.” (Chloe)
“Really? I’m just a librarian.”
“Does a librarian annihilate an ogre in an instant?” (Chloe)
Chloe looks around with a flat expression.
There were several corpses of ogres lying around.
“While I defeated a single ogre, Leon-sama cleaned up everything else, and you haven’t even broken a sweat.” (Chloe)
Chloe looked at me as if I were a monster.
It is true that the dead bodies of the ogres lying around were killed by me.
They were defeated while Chloe was fighting the leader of the ogres.
“…Leon-sama is a monster.” (Chloe)
Chloe said so and began helping Sicily, who was caring for the elves.
For the time being, I also have the knowledge of recovery magic, so I will join them there.
A few minutes later, I remembered that the elves were a very proud race and that I had saved them from being attacked by the ogres and made contact with them.
