I already told you guys this is R-15 Novel.
There’s NO HENTAI logic or GURO logic here.
This is just a simple tregedy, the lord kill the mother
and use her body as main supply power to use spell.
Her body is still intact and look like sleeping.
This time is a “Cliff Hanger” but not so much impressive as the “feel”.
The first thing after I entered the food store and return to human form was to pinch my nose.
… Onion is bad.
The headache hurt a little to the green onion’s scent that drifted from large quantities onion.
Even if I smell just fine when I was a human being, but right now, it smell so bad that enough to kill me.
It seems that rice and wheat flour are also kept in the food cabinet, but the odor of green onion is terrible.
“Uhm … … this way, right?”
While blocking my nose nose, I hurry run to the back of the food storehouse.
The wall around the stairs is somewhat unnatural.
I guessed this basement has been made later after the mansion was built. They make space by digging holes and breaking the floor of the food storehouse. That’s why it’s an unnatural connection.
…Isn’t this usually build in bed room?
This is a large renovation. It is no doubt that the lord himself has done it. But why did not him create an entrance to his room?
Because people were in his room (like his family) can get oout without being seen by anyone and there is no way that someone can sneak in without his permission because they have to go through his private room.
But the entrance leading to the basement of this mansion was in the food warehouse. There is indeed weird.
… Are the cook is also the lord?
If so, you can convince to build an entrance to the basement in a food cabinet that only you can enter …. Well, I can not help but thinking.
While feeling cool air throughout the body, I get down to the basement. I feel cold unless I wear something but I can not do it right now.
I go down the stairs little by little and eventually arrived in one room.
It was a huge painting on the floor that first came into my eyes when I got off the stairs.
A strange picture like drawing a circle and overwriting a lot of symbols in it. The word “Magic square” immediately came into my mind.
Purple paint is emitting light, and it has a somewhat strange atmosphere.
Armor with sword was arranged so as to surround the magical square around.
A full plate that covers everything from head to toe.
And in the center of the team, she was. Tied to the chain extending from the ceiling and was hanged.
The feet have not reached the ground and are slightly floating. Only her nine tails that slammed down all the time are touching the floor.
“Ah…”
I understood it at the moment I saw it. I knew it. The mother‘s life has run out long ago.
She is not weakened. Her soul is missing. Her heart is not even beating.
It was a very natural, corpse.
Even though I could understand that, I approached the lady being hung. Do not need to worry about magic square’s paint getting stamped on.
“…Good evening”
Looking into the face from below, she was surprisingly beautiful.
There is no smell of death or smell like the flesh has decayed. There is scent of beast and sweet scent peculiar to women.
Far from being dead, she only look like she’s just sleeping.
Still, she is not alive. As if to sleep, she is dead.
Her body is beautiful, is there some kind of antiseptic treatment is applied.
… If so, what is this feeling?
The flow of magical power still here. The source is definitely from her body.
When I still in doubt, one thing happened under my feet, purple magic square started to shine strongly.
I thought it was a trap at first, but it seems to be different.
A woman appeared before me, with the same appearance as the one I’m holding.
Her fox’s ears and fox’s yellow eyes are open.
From her thin smile mouth, the beast’s fang is peeking.
Someone who looked just like the suspended woman.
“You are?”
“Record …?”
“I was invited by the Lord of this mansion, he want me to stop the war and seek out ways together to do that … that kind of story.”
She keeps talking ignoring me in her sight, neglecting the question I ask.
Before her life was exhausted, she left images and words magically. A will of video format in my former world.
She is similar to Kuzuha-chan, but with a more calming and mature feeling.
“I was deceived …. I don’t want get revenge … It is somewhat devastating when my life come to an end. But only my daughter, Kuzuha, is concerned … … Because she is a pure child … Oh, did you see her yet? She is a pretty baby that she was born and she is so cute.”
“What are you doing at the time of death?”
Even though I understand that her illusion can not understand me because she is a picture.
I wonder if she is really dead, this person. Also, there are pictures in other worlds too.
“… Well, I sorry for the distract, I will return the story soon.”
I do not know the exact time because there is no clock, but after doing some doting parent work for a couple of minutes, she have returned the tone of her voice to a serious one.
She is a kind of up – and – down person. She may be similar to her daughter.
“I do not know who is watching this video and I know that I was not obliged to ask, but … I wonder if I can ask you to take care of my daughter … please … I hope you do.”
Deeply lower her head – With that posture, the fox lady turned something like golden particles, scattered and disappeared.
At the same time, the fox-colored light inside of the basement change back to a mysterious purple light.
“… She is a stupid person, is not it?”
As she’s dying, she prepare words to tell her daughter because her daughter is so important to her.
Rather than wish to be save, she thought about my daughter too much and depended on someone.
She may not even be able to come into contact with anyone because of where she left behind an image. Still she bet her life on a slight possibility.
“I can not fulfill your wish”
I think that feeling is precious. But why should I and how can I do such a thing?
I have no connection, I don’t even know if I can live for myself. Even if I ask about the dead body I just met today, I have no answer.
“… All I do is to return the favor.”
I just want to return what I got. To that end, I will bring her back to her daughter.
What to do after that is Kuzuha-chan’s decision. She is neither an outsider (me) nor dead (the mother), she is a girl who has to keep on living.
I unwind chains wrapped around the body of the fox lady who I do not even know her name.
It was not tied or locked, it was not difficult to just remove it because it was just rolled up, but I took a bit of trouble because of the height problem.
“Okay, I got you”
The height of the fox lady is higher than me and because the body is dead, there is no power in the body, she is heavy.
Nonetheless, I am a vampire with cheat power, I can carry her just fine. Politely, in the form of a princess pick, I take Kuzuha-chan’s mother.
Let’s return to Kuzuha-chan’s hut. The moment I thought so, the shine under my feet increased again.
Different from before, light does not change to fox color. The purple shine fills the entire room.
“Who dare come into my basement at late night like this ?”
The voice that struck from the staircase is the voice of a man with a calm atmosphere.
Perhaps it was a mechanism that would be detected when moving a corpse. So troublesome.
