“Stop! Who are you?! What business do you have here?!”
I, in my Astral Body, watched and heard from high above the outer wall as the Living Doll, programmed with settings and conditions, was ordered to live or die in front of the West Gate.
Living Doll feigned being a traveler.
The gatekeepers opened the closed gates upwards.
The outer wall was two houses high. Only the outer gate was opened.
The inner gate remained shut.
There was a guardhouse for the gatekeepers in between.
The Living Doll was ordered to enter there.
Hmm, hmm.
It’s suspicious for someone to wander alone during wartime, isn’t it~~♪
“What’s wrong?!”
“What was that sound?!”
“Boom!!”
A human bomb.
The gatekeepers must have been trying to search the Living Doll’s belongings♪
The self-destruction, programmed into its conditions, activated, surely causing carnage inside the guardhouse♪♪
“What was that sound!?”
“What’s going on?!”
The gatekeepers, who had been watching from within the brick wall, two bricks thick, started to make a fuss.
Since the guardhouse was blown away, they started shouting even more and ran to ask for help from their colleagues inside.
They headed to the communication room with the communication device connecting to the inside.
I possessed the minced gatekeeper.
The damaged parts were absorbed by a corpse with a remaining original form, and regenerated.
I went to kill the frantic survivors.
I proceeded down the stone passage I had been watching.
*Clack, clack*
“Is anyone alive–Ngaaa?!”
The gatekeepers who turned and saw me, covered in blood and holding a weapon, were even more confused♪
“Tch.”
“What the hell is this!!”
“It’s an enemy! Do you need anything else?!”
“Damn it all!”
A sword fight.
Two versus one. While my limbs were being severed, I succeeded only in knocking a weapon onto the communication device.
*Gagaaa!*
I finally heard the voices of my colleagues inside, but
the communication device was broken, and the sound cut off.
“Y-o-u-s-o-n-o-f-a-b-i-t-c-h!”
“–Nii♪”
Before my body was completely usable, I released my possession, smiling as I declared victory to the gatekeepers, “It’s a useless effort, you know,” and
moved to the bushes where I had hidden the spare Living Dolls.
“…”
“…”
“…”
“…”
A march of zombies.
Their eyes unfocused, their emotionless march towards the still-open gate was a surreal zombie procession♪
The remaining gatekeepers couldn’t stop these Living Dolls.
Only one of them could stop them♪
“Stop—!!”
“Don’t come near the gate!!”
I fired warning shots at their feet with a crossbow.
And as soon as they saw that I wasn’t stopping,
they shot an arrow into my leg.
“…”
“…”
“…”
“…”
No pain sensation.
It only altered my balance and slowed me down.
“G-gosh, gosh.”
“Why are you okay?”
*Pashu* *Hyuu* *Hyuu* *Pusn* *Dosun*
I received communication from the outer gatekeepers.
There was no reply. The surrounding residents also heard what sounded like an explosion.
The outer gatekeepers.
They opened and closed the outer gate, coming to reinforce them.
And at the same time.
They were blown away by the self-destruction of the second Living Doll.
*Booooooon!!!*
“Waaah?!?!”
I wasn’t hit at point-blank range. I sustained minor injuries.
However, the outer gatekeepers who should have provided reinforcement were all annihilated by the explosion.
“Now, let’s destroy more of the gate♪”
“…”
“…”
I ordered self-destruction for two more♪
“Destroy? Was it a magic power runaway self-destruction?! Don’t let them get close! Shoot arrows! Absolutely do not approach!”
This must be the captain who heads the inner gatekeepers?
Giving orders to guide the evacuation of nearby residents, my, how competent♪
“Shield.”
“…”
“…”
*Kan* *Kakan!*
“It’s a barrier! Cancel the magic!”
“OOOOOHHHH!!”
It was noisy, echoing even more because it was stone construction!!
The final Living Doll was detonated♪!
*Booooooon!!!*
“Nnnngh, *fuu*”
Unable to withstand the gatekeepers’ shouts,
Rayos detonated himself along with the Living Dolls that should have been preserved.
In his Astral Body, he infiltrated the capital’s interior.
He searched for a brothel and raped prostitutes and courtesans in the waiting room.
His physical body was that of a dull, perverted shut-in tidying up the room.
“You, doing this, won’t just get you fired, hyaan♡?!! N-no way! I won’t be taken by someone like you, raaaaaah♡♡!!”
Her endurance, boasting of her hundred-battle-hardened skill as a seasoned professional dealing with customers,
was astonished to be breached by a mere chore boy.
However, with the pride of a prostitute, she stubbornly insisted she hadn’t reached climax,
leading to the situation where other victims were called to the waiting room.
But other colleagues and competitors entered the room,
causing them to wail even more.
Their screams drowned out the explanation of what was happening, and the explanation that she was being violated by the chore boy.
“Ugh, I haven’t, reached it. With your, cheap tricks, I…”
“Hey?! I don’t know what you’re doing, but stop, kyaaa?!”
“What are you doing?!”
“You bastard! What are you doing to them!”
“Take him down! W-why is he so strong, gaaah?! Let go of my arm, you bastard!? You rapist!”
Waaah waaah!! Kyaaa kyaaa?!
Using the brothel as his base of operations,
Rayos moved his growth-enhanced new body
and headed to raid another brothel.
The explosion incident at the West Gate.
The Knights of Color Headquarters, including the Commander of the Knights who remained,
could hardly believe the report.
“Vice Commander!”
“Yes! I will lead the Colorless Knights to investigate!”
“I’m counting on you.”
Why is there an incident in the capital?
And so soon after the Knight Captains left?
Weren’t the enemy’s forces repelled and pushed outside?
The Commanders of the Knights
went through the report documents, wondering if they had received manipulated information.
In the meantime,
an incident occurred at a brothel.
“Haaah?!?!?!”
The soldier who came to report said, “Shouldn’t you report this again?”
“No!”
The Commander of the Knights stopped him.
The Headquarters’ combat power was the last bastion protecting the Royal Family.
He sent messengers to the Vice Commander and the others.
“Just who is the enemy…”
The conference room was filled with bewilderment and shock.
