Chapter 26 - 26-Slaughter

Fujimoto is then reflecting in his room.

Fujimoto – (I am a terrible leader.)

Fujimoto then hears someone knocking on his room door.

Fujimoto opens the door and Koharu was outside.

Fujimoto – Koharu.

Koharu – Can I come in?

Fujimoto – Yes.

Koharu enters Fujimoto's room.

Fujimoto – You couldn't rest with all this mess, right?

Koharu – No, but I think you must be the most shaken person among all of us here.

Fujimoto – Where did Max go?

Koharu – Unfortunately, there must be only one person who knows where Max went.

Fujimoto – Shana, right?

Koharu – Unfortunately, only her.

Fujimoto – Then I'll talk to her.

Fujimoto then decides to go to Shana's room, but Koharu stops him by holding him back.

Koharu – Please don't go to her, we'll find a way to find Max without her.

Fujimoto – I know you were mad at her, but we need her help to find Max.

Koharu – Okay.

Fujimoto and Koharu go to Shana's room. Shana's face is shaken.

Fujimoto – Shana, can we talk?

Shana – What would you like to ask?

Fujimoto – Do you know where Max went?

Shana is silent.

Koharu – You're going to talk now or we'll kick you out of here!

Fujimoto – Calm down, Koharu.

Shana – He must have gone to Seseferin.

Fujimoto – Seseferin?

Shana – That's his hometown.

Fujimoto – Does he have any family or friends there?

Shana – Yes, I bet he'll come back for his family.

Fujimoto – Even so, I want to talk to him again.

Kairo – You're not the only one who wants to talk to Max again.

Fujimoto and Koharu look back, watching Cassandra and Kairo behind them.

Cassandra – I already talked to Kairo. Besides, I know you want to talk to Max, right Shana?

Koharu – Just one question.

Fujimoto – Which one?

Koharu – How are we going to get to Seseferin?

Cassandra – Can I talk to Ros to lend us a cart.

Kairo – I know how to drive.

Fujimoto and his friends go to Ros to ask for a cart.

Ros – Cassandra and Kairo, I bet you're up to something to make you want to leave for Seseferin?

Cassandra – We're not up to anything.

Kairo was going to speak, but Fujimoto interrupts.

Fujimoto – Our group ended up fighting and one of our friends ended up leaving out of sadness, we all want to bring him back.

Ros – Cassandra and Kairo, you really want to do this with all your heart.

Cassandra and Kairo – Yes!

Ros then smiles.

Ros – Okay, I've already made my decision.

Everyone is apprehensive, waiting for Ros's decision.

Ros – I'll lend you the wagon.

Fujimoto and his friends pack their bags and go to the wagon.

Kairo – Let's go back soon, Ros.

Ros – Take care.

Ros – (Cassandra and Kairo, you've grown a lot.)

Kairo starts driving the wagon. Fujimoto and his friends head to Seseferin to try to talk to Max once more. Meanwhile, a mysterious girl appears at the adventurers' house in Lilibel.

Ros – Hello, who are you?

The mysterious girl says her name is Alisiya.

Ros – I see, so you want a room?

Alisiya – I'm looking for someone.

Ros starts to shake.

Ros – (Don't tell me she's looking for Cassandra and Kairo.)

Ros – Who would that be?

Alisiya – His name is Fujimoto.

Ros – (Why is she looking for Cassandra and Kairo's friend?)

Ros – He and his group have already left, but what did you want with him?

Alisiya – I'm his sister.

Ros – (So she's just his sister.)

Alisiya – Now tell me where he went.

Ros – (Why is she so interested in where he went? By the way, her expression gives me the creeps.)

Alisiya – Hey, tell me right now, I know you know where they went.

Ros – Why do you think I know?

Alisiya – Why did your nephew go with them.

Ros – My nephew?

Alisiya – Kairo is your nephew, right? Ros – (Who is she?)

Alisiya then looks around.

Ros – (What is she doing now?)

Alisiya – Hey Ros-san, those men and women are looking at me strangely. Are the men wanting my body and the women jealous of me?

Ros – (No one is looking at her like that. She's up to something.)

Ros – Do you want to go to a more private place so we can talk?

Alisiya – If we do that, everyone will have the wrong view of us, but I already know a way to stop the looks regarding me.

Ros – How?

Alisiya then smiles.

Alisiya – I'm going to kill everyone.

Alisiya starts laughing and everyone watches.

Alisiya – Hahahahaha!!!

Ros – (This crazy woman is trying to find an excuse for me to pass the information on to her, but she still won't be able to.)

Ros – Do you think you'll be able to kill twenty-nine adventurers at the same time?

Alisiya then climbs on top of the table.

Alisiya – In the sky above and on the earth below, I am the most honorable. So I won't be defeated here.

Everyone is left confused. Alisiya then takes several gold and imperial coins out of her pocket.

Ros – (Is she crazy?)

Alisiya – Guys, I have these coins here. Whoever can kill me can have them.

Then the adventurers try to kill Alisiya. Alisiya takes a knife and cuts one's neck, she dodges the attack of another. Ros then screams.

Ros – Please stop!!!

Ros then calms down.

Ros – Hey girl, I'll give you the information you want, but please stop this!

Alisiya then comes face to face with Ros. Ros then starts to tremble in fear as all twenty-nine adventurers are killed in the blink of an eye.

Ros – (She killed all twenty-nine adventurers in just one minute.)

Alisiya knocks Ros to the ground. Alisiya then points a knife at Ros.
