Sui*cide by Raising a Heroine chapter 30



30 – Secret – 3

I gathered my thoughts for a while. I’m pretty sure I’ve figured out what’s going on here.

So, what kind of confidence did the crazy cultists turn around and sacrifice the entire population of a city?

‘Are you really crazy?’

The more I thought about it, the more ridiculous it was. Did you know that you would do such a thing and be safe? I don’t know what you’re trying to summon, but even so, it won’t work for Charlotte or Serena.

If Christine was here, she wouldn’t be alone either.

For now, it was urgent to find out how on earth such a thing was possible. It’s not like picking a few people, building a tower, and dedicating it, it’s the size of a city.

There was no way it would be easy to use such a human as a sacrifice. Moreover, almost overnight.

Since it is virtually impossible to do this kind of action with a momentary impulse, it must have been planned for a very long time, but if so, I have no idea where the rot started.

Kartina… … Yeah, did Kartina suddenly disappear by teleportation?

“Serena, did you say that Kartina disappeared due to teleportation?”

“Yes. It’s not normal teleportation magic, it seemed to be some kind of transformation.”

“how?”

“As a red magic circle was drawn on his forehead, his entire body was turned into red powder and scattered.

“Okay, good job. I’ve got some left to investigate here later.”

Seeing that even the sacrificial ritual was activated underground, it was clear that he had committed something.

Later, if you formally inform the palace and rob the city, whatever will come out. Who did this, and for what purpose? how strong it is, and so on.

Just using the slang of civil war makes my blood pressure rise. There was no need to get involved in the process.

“……for a moment.”

What did Serena just say? I reflected on my words for a while. Did I mention that as a red magic circle was drawn on his forehead, his whole body turned into powder and flew away?

“Serena.”

“Speak, lord.”

“To the manor house. Right now.”

“All right.”

Serena picked me up and put me on her side. Then, with mana wrapped around his body, he ran out of the Adventurer’s Guild building with a bang.

A stupid thought came to my mind: What if the whole wall was destroyed? Shouldn’t you have asked to go out of the building and go to the mansion?

While I was being picked up by Serena and moving, the scenery around me changed so quickly that I could only see afterimages. The first time I was like this, I couldn’t adapt to the speed, so my eyes were staggering, but as you can see, I’m fine now.

If your body strengthening ability reaches its peak, will you fight in a world like this? I don’t know because I’ve never reached a level in my life.

“Im here.”

Serena and I had arrived at the main gate of the manor house, even though it felt like a few seconds had passed. Serena carefully put me on the floor and straightened my clothes.

He gently brushed her tangled hair, and gently cupped her cheek with her palm.

When he tapped his hand to say stop, he quickly returned to Serena, the first knight commander of the royal family, as if he had been doing that before.

It was a quick change of attitude that made me wonder if I had just misunderstood.

I approached the iron gate that separates the mansion from the main street. The door was firmly locked. The height was taller than mine, and the door was made entirely of iron, so I couldn’t budge with my own strength.

He took a few steps back and gave Serena a glance. Taking out the World Eater, Serena quickly stepped forward.

“Can I break it?”

“That’s how it should be. You don’t know what’s inside, so as little debris as possible bounces.”

“Yes.”

Serena took a stand. In fact, a person with skills at Serena’s level could easily tear down an iron gate like that with just her own strength, without having to wield a World Eater.

I don’t know why not. Is tearing something like that with force because it’s something Christine would do?

The World Eater, which had been over-injected with mana, began to vibrate. The blade trembled, and the tip of the sword shook.

If it was an ordinary sword, it would have been crushed without enduring less than 1/10 of its mana. Serena, who infused the World Eater with mana, lightly poked at the center of the door.

And the front door turned to powder and disappeared.

In the place where the large iron door had been cut into invisible pieces and disappeared, only the walls connected to the door remained on both sides.

what did you just see I was just staring blankly at Serena as she approached me and bowed her head politely.

“It is finished, lord.”

“What, just now? It’s a technique I haven’t seen before?”

“It’s nothing special. It’s just a trick applied to scattering leaves.”

“…”

I passed Serena with a confused expression on her face as if there was something wrong with her. Yeah, where did Charlotte or Serena do that once or twice?

It’s normal behavior for these guys. It should not be judged by ordinary human standards.

When I stepped into the garden, an unusual aura covered my body. My eyebrows were furrowed. My breath stopped, and I thought that I had already woken up no matter what happened.

As soon as Serena followed me into the garden, she frowned in the same way. Unlike me who was out of breath, it seems to have ended to the point where I felt a little bad.

As long as the red magic circle was drawn, signifying that the target had become the final sacrifice to finish the ritual, the final ritual had already begun.

After all, Kartina was not the culprit.

Among the pagans, there were fanatics who even offered themselves as sacrifices, but at least I had never seen fanatics who sacrificed themselves by drawing a red magic circle.

There’s no particular reason, and you shouldn’t leave someone to control the summons.

“Haha, I knew it would be like this.”

In the end, the predictions of what would be in the mansion were correct. The last remaining question is, if Kartina is not the culprit, then who is the culprit?

Elliott was destined to be used as a sacrifice because his mind was destroyed, Scarface turned into a monster right in front of his eyes, and even the lord, Cartina, was sacrificed, so there was no one left.

Well, you’ll probably find out what it really is when you go inside.

As we approached the mansion, the strange aura grew stronger and stronger. It was like walking in the mouth of a giant insect with its mouth open waiting for food to enter.

The grass and trees in the garden were dying, withered and twisted. As if something had been blocked, the sound of stepping on the marble on the way to the mansion was particularly small.

Suddenly, the door to the mansion opened.

I stopped at the sound of heavy footsteps coming from inside. Serena naturally blocked my way.

He placed a hand on his shoulder to tell him not to attack yet, and stared into it. Footsteps grew louder, and a black, shiny-skinned monster emerged from within.

It was a monster with almost the same appearance as Scarface.

Eight pupils glared at Serena, and thick, long nails hung from her hands, with a thick tail trailing on the floor.

His tongue crawled out between his long, torn mouth and tightly packed teeth and licked the corners of his mouth.

The monster was not one. Behind the monster that first appeared, monsters with similar appearances walked out of the mansion one after another.

Some of them even break through walls and jump out. The number was estimated to exceed twenty. And, maybe there are more in there.

“How are you, Serena?”

Quietly asked Serena a question. Serena looked around at the monsters gathering around us a few times before replying that it was nothing special.

“The appearance looks almost the same as the first monster you cut, but the mana itself that you feel is definitely dropping. What do you do?”

Scarface’s arms and head were still in the Adventurer’s Guild building. Considering that, it didn’t seem necessary to spare those who were blocking our path here.

First of all, it means that Scarface is much stronger than them. I just need to bring the strongest one as a sample.

And if those were really monsters similar to Scarface, it was obvious that they wouldn’t die from being dismembered anyway.

If you stay alive with your body dismembered, the sample will increase, and even if you die, you have nothing to lose.

“Kill them all.”

“I’ll accept it.”

As soon as my words were spoken, Serena covered her body with mana. The monsters who saw it roared as if they were about to attack in reverse.

Even though Scarface became a monster, as soon as he saw Serena, he got scared and backed off. It seemed that he had lost his cowardice by turning into a monster and getting drunk with that power.

Serena, who poured mana into her body, put the World Eater back into the scabbard. Place your right foot slightly in front of your left foot, spread your legs shoulder-width apart and slightly bend your knees.

Looking at the lightly bowed waist and the hand still holding the handle of the World Eater, I could roughly guess what they were preparing.

‘Ah, that’s it.’

Serena didn’t even give it a name, saying it was just an ordinary kicking technique, but no one in the Royal Knights could perfectly copy that technique.

According to the founder, it is not worth explaining because it is a simple action that requires only a quick cut in all directions while unleashing a sword.

But even though it was possible to cut even the royal knights from the front, you couldn’t cut them from all sides like Serena, so why can’t you do this? A lot of swear words and gossip were exchanged behind Serena, who raised questions while asking questions.

FYI, I don’t even know the principle of that technology. Even if I did, I don’t think I could use it anywhere.

Exhaling a short breath, Serena took a step forward with her left foot. Then, I took the World Eater about a third out of the scabbard and put it back in.

At the same time, all the monsters were dismembered and rolled around the garden.

Half a beat later, blood gushed out like a fountain from the perfectly clean cut and soaked the dried grass. Here and there the sound of pieces of meat collapsing and intertwining could be heard.

When a head that couldn’t stand the force of the attack rolled in front of Serena, Serena casually stepped on it and broke it.

“Would you like to go in, lord?”

“Okay, let’s go in.”

Maybe it’s because it’s a skill I’ve seen a few times, so I’m not too surprised,” I thought to myself, and approached the mansion’s door.

I was just about to leave the mansion, but Serena, who kicked aside the huge body of the monster that was blocking the doorway, stuck next to me, probably entering the attack range.

Now it was time to find out the culprit.
