{Side: Youmu}

Now then... What should I do?

I muttered to myself in a room of a building that seemed to be the Goblin barracks.

I was the weakest member of the team that had invaded the Goblin's nest this time. As a result, the other side didn't think much of me. The fact that I was able to elude my pursuers like this is proof of that.

However, there's another side to this.

Kon, kokokokokon, kokokokon. The door of the entrance was knocked with such a peculiar rhythm. It seems that my partner has arrived. To be honest, I don't know how it's going to turn out, but they're fighting as hard as they can. I'll do what I can to help.

With a clunk, I unlocked the door from the inside.

"Come in."

I draw my sword, just in case, and brace myself to respond at any moment.

"Gee... Gii-"

The first thing that came in was a plain Goblin. If I had to pick a difference, it would be the slight glint of intelligence and reason in his eyes. It is not uncommon for a monster that has gained a stronger soul connection through naming to understand its master's intelligence and thoughts, and to gain wisdom.

Gobsuke, the Goblin that Aya had tamed.

And then... A Goblin woman walks in after him.

She's wearing a robe over her underwear, a ridiculous outfit. However, despite this, I feel that her ability is comparable to that of the Black Knight. No, maybe she's more troublesome than the Black Knight, who fights honestly, but... Whatever the case, the fact remains that she is far superior to me at this point.

I turned to Liz, one of the Goblin leaders who had summoned me, and stared her in the face.

"Wow, you really came. I was wondering if I'd be declined."

Liz began to talk about it playfully, not paying attention to my gaze. I felt somewhat uncomfortable, but I didn't take any part in the conversation and cut it off.

"Enough with the talk, why did you call me?"

This woman had gone to the trouble of picking me up through Gobsuke and summoning me to this place. The fact that I was able to disappear without incident can be attributed to her manipulations.

Of course, there was a great possibility that it was a trap.

But if it was a trap, there was one thing that puzzled me. There wasn't much merit in choosing me out of all those members to trap. In fact, if they were going to use such a trick, they should have targeted Leticia or Chibi, who were expected to cause more damage in terms of strength.

If they want to capture me and take me as a hostage, it would be much more reliable to go to the front.

For these reasons, I decided to try to meet this woman.

Liz quickly removes the mask of her sly, smiling face.

Her eyes are cold, as if she is looking down on the world. I'm uncertain why I felt so uncomfortable.

I understand why I felt it was somewhat uncomfortable. This woman resembles Luka in some way.

Concerning Luka, her true intentions, pretense, and acting are so mixed up that she has become a monster.

And Liz, without hesitation, just starts talking plainly.

"The reason I called you here is simple. You're here to defeat the Lord, aren't you? Let me help you out."
