Being able to join up with Liliana allowed the search in the Abyss to progress unexpectedly well.
After all, she destroys all obstacles in the way with a good punch. Or rather, what’s with the protagonist heroine being the strongest in hand-to-hand combat?
Well, thanks to that.
“Hahaha, thanks to Lady Liliana, we were able to join up quickly.”
“Seriously! Lady Liliana is the best after all!”
“Yes, yes, that’s my Lady Liliana.”
“What!”
Oh geez, a dispute over Liliana broke out immediately.
We’re about to fight “The Person Inside,” you know… zero tension.
“Well, isn’t it better than getting too worked up?”
“Do you think so…”
Yuri is comforting me, but I’m giving the three of them a completely cold stare.
“However, the only ones we haven’t been able to join up with yet are Sandra-san and Monica-san.”
“If it’s Sandra, she’s probably going around destroying everything to find Hal…”
“If you’re going to say that, Monica is the same. Moreover, she’s also a spy, so she should be sensitive to detecting presence. But the fact that she hasn’t been found yet means…”
Carla’s words make me feel uneasy.
Please, both of you, be safe… I pray.
“It’s okay… those two will surely be fine. So you should be more confident.”
“Lize…”
Lize squeezed my hand and smiled.
Ah, haha… I never thought I’d be comforted by the Villainess of “EnHaza.”
“…Lize-san, isn’t cutting in line not good?”
“Y-yes, it is!”
For some reason, Christia and Carla are closing in on Lize.
But she didn’t care at all and didn’t let go of my hand.
At that time.
“What’s that…?”
A faint light visible in the depths of the darkness.
Perhaps that’s the exit of the Abyss… or maybe the place where “The Person Inside” is.
“Yuri.”
“I don’t know… That guy has only ever spoken to me in my head, I’ve never actually met him…”
“I see…”
If Yuri says so, then no one knows what’s beyond that light.
But I can’t just sit here twiddling my thumbs.
“Everyone, let’s go. Sandra and Monica might have seen that light and be heading there too.”
“Okay…”
We proceed into the darkness, aiming for the light.
And.
“This is…”
The gap where the light is leaking out doesn’t seem like a human can pass through.
Also, when I peeked into the other side of the gap, it was too dazzling to look directly at.
“Hal-kun, what do we do?”
“Hmm…”
With this gap, the possibility of Sandra and the others getting through here is zero.
So should we wait here for the two of them to come…?
At that time.
“Ugh… ugh…”
“What!? That voice!”
There’s no way I could be wrong.
That was… that was Sandra’s groan.
“Sandra! Sandraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
“Lord Hal! Calm down!”
Christia risks her body to stop me, who is desperately shouting the name of my beloved wife, trying to pry open the gap.
“Don’t stop me! Sandra is on the other side… on the other side of this!”
“But we can’t go to the other side like this! And, it might be a trap…”
“Then I have to go save her even more!”
At this time, I had definitely lost my composure.
Because Sandra and Monica, who were always by my side, aren’t here.
Because the two who always supported me aren’t here… wait!?
—Snap.
“Ah…”
“Please, please calm down. You are the key to us.”
Christia slapped my cheek, and I finally regained my composure.
That’s right… what am I doing?
Even if I’m going to rescue Sandra and Monica, there are things to do first, like widening this gap…
“Christia-san, thank you…”
“No. I’m sorry for slapping you…”
“It’s nothing like that. Thanks to you, I was able to calm down.”
I took her downcast hand and smiled.
I’m really grateful to Christia.
“Geez! Hurry up and separate!”
“Isn’t this not the time to be doing such things?”
Lize pouts and wedges herself between me and Christia, and Carla directs an unusually stern gaze at us. Y-yeah, this wasn’t the time to be doing this.
“Hehehe, leave it to me. Braveheart! Braveheart! Braveheart!”
Liliana repeatedly casts Braveheart, which has an all-ability buff effect. Again and again.
And, as soon as she stood in front of the gap.
“Oryaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
She spun her arm around and delivered a powerful liver blow to the gap.
Then.
“Ooh…”
The gap has become large enough for one person to pass through.
Now we can move forward… but I’ll never fight with Liliana. That’s when I’ll die.
So, we pass through the gap…!?
“Sandra!? Monica!?”
“Ugh…”
There were the figures of the two, with their hands and feet restrained, hanging from a giant gear.
