Dark Knight Kroki

It seems that the castle has become a bit rowdy, Master Fairytamer.

　Frutin looks at me and says.
　I didn't give myself the name of my real name, Kroki. He is called the Little Fairy Messenger (Fairy Tamer).
　The undead in the castle began to make a scene after the captives escaped.
　The undead have begun to make a fuss over the escape of their captors.

I hope they get away safely. ......

　He answers without looking at Frutin.
　The captured men fled the castle, leaving Frutin, Mardus and three others behind.
　I asked them to use them as bait to save Wendy.
　Of course, I told them what happened. When I told them what happened, they readily agreed.
　It seems that they were originally prepared to be saved, and they will cooperate if they can give the undead a crack at them.
　I pray for their safety in my heart.
　The entanglement between Zarxis and the fat man would benefit no one but Zarxis.
　Once again, I truly and sincerely pray for their safety.
　Eventually, the noise fades away.
　There must have been fewer undead from the castle.

I suppose so. It's time for us to make our move.

　I nodded at his words.
　I also know from the information from the white hood that Zafarada and his attendant vampires are not in this castle right now.
　Now is the time to move.

'Right. Lord Frutin: ......

　I turn my back to Frutin and answer him.
　I am now wearing a white hood.
　And Frutin and his friends are pretending to be those who could not escape.
　In other words, they are naked and tied up. As expected, I'm not a V, but I can't stand to see straight.
　That's why we're talking with our eyes turned away like this.
　Tiber also remains silent with a somewhat sullen face.
　If you look closely, she is holding her nose. She really doesn't seem to want to.
　I'm sorry Tiber," she apologizes in her mind. I apologize in my heart.
　There are others in this place with white hoods, but they are under the control of Tiber's magic.
　And I make sure that the undead are gone.
　Myself and the other White Hoods are supposed to stay behind instead of going to the castle to track them down.
　This is because it makes more sense for the undead to track them, rather than the slow-moving, modified humans.
　The white skull that went to check comes back and shakes its head.
　It seems that the undead are gone.
　Frutin and the others put on their clothes and arm themselves.
　The armament is what the White Hoods had with them.
　When I put on my clothes, a dignified uncle was standing there.
　It looks like a lie that he was forced to spread his legs in a V-shape while completely naked.

'Let's go, General,'

　Mardas chuckles.
　He is completely naked and carrying an axe.
　From the way he's tattooed with a beast, it looks like he was a Thors madman.
　Mad warriors do not wear armor. Rather, they pride themselves on fighting without any armor.
　It's almost as if they say that fighting with armor on is cowardly.
　And some of them fight completely naked.
　Mardas and his three men seem to be the same, and they are naked.
　Apparently they were originally Mardas' friends and grabbed together.
　Three fat old man's asses are lined up in a row.
　I respect that belief, but I'd rather not have them in my line of sight if possible.
　But I can't say that.
　Because they've bought their way out ahead of us.
　Perhaps they're trying to shield us.
　I'm very grateful. But for some reason, I feel like it's a punishment.
　Frutin led by Mardus and his friends, followed by myself.
　The reason I put Fultin in the lead is because he has the ability to sense the undead.
　We walked up the long stairs.
　Men crouch in front of us. The reason why they climb in a crouch is because they are fat.
　Something trembles between your legs.
　No, please don't really give me a break. ......
　That's when I thought that, and suddenly Frutin stopped.

'How about ......?'

　What's going on?　I was about to ask, "What do you mean?" when Frutin put his hand over his mouth.
　It's a gesture to be quiet.
　There's a door at the top of the stairs.
　It looks like you've reached the first floor.
　From Fultin's appearance, the undead are probably on the other side.

I have to say, I'm a bit of a jerk. This is where we will rampage and attract the enemies in the castle. In the meantime, go ahead. Is this a good time, Master Mardus?
Yeah, I'm fine. Let's go. Ketsuno. Anaga. Moro.

　Mardus nodded, and his fellow men nodded as well.
　I feel like I should never call these three men by their names in connection with each other.

'Oh,'
I'm on it.
Yeah, I think it's time to show the world who's the man.

　Give me a break at the end: .......

'I understand. Take care .......

　When I say that, the men giggle. It's a face that is ready to die.
　It is very manly.
　Frutin casts a spell on the weapons of Mardus and his friends.
　With the effect of light magic, they will be able to fight even against disembodied ghosts.

''Let's go!''
Oh!

　Frutin and his men raise their respective weapons and charge in.
　I watch them through the doorway.

"Perish!　The dead lord's household!　Take the judgment call!

　The tip of a small mace held by Frutin shines brightly.
　As I thought, Frutin seems to have received blessing power from a god or angel.
　I'm sure you'll be pleased to know that I'm not the only one.
　As I watched, I found a staircase at the side.
　From there, the undead keep coming down.
　And after a while, there are no more undead coming down.
　There aren't that many of them.
　They'll be fine on their own.

''Good!　Let's go!　Tiber!
'Yes!　Mr. Kuroki!　I'm finally saying goodbye to an oily person~

　Tiber says happily.
　He hated it so much.
　I quickly exit the door and move along the wall to the stairs.
　On the way, a ghost (Spectre) almost chases me, but Mardus stops me from doing so.

"Thank you.

　I thank him and I move on myself.
　I don't feel any sign of the enemy as I move forward.
　Where are Wendy and the others?
　According to the information from the white hood, it should be quite an upper floor.
　Eventually, you will be able to move on to a place where the man with the white hood is standing.
　The room behind the door where the man is standing is probably where Wendy and the others are.

'Hm?　What's going on?
Sleep.

　The white hood falls over as he uses the magic of sleep.
　And when he entered the door where the man was standing, it was a large room.
　A beautiful carpet was laid out and the ceiling was high.
　There is some kind of huge birdcage hanging from that ceiling.

'Who's there?　What about you?

　The white hoods in the room look at us.
　There are three of them.
　It's a number that can be killed in the blink of an eye.
　Myself and Tiber use magic to put the white hoods to sleep.
　And that's when the last of the hoods falls down, and a voice comes from above you.

'Tiber-chan!　Mr. Kuroki!

　I look up and see Wendy peeking out of the birdcage.

"Wendy. I'm here to help. Hang on a minute.

　I look around the room and find a pulley.
　I operate it and lower the birdcage.
　When the birdcage comes down, Wendy and the kids are looking at us.
　Their eyes are very sparkly.
　The birdcage doesn't seem to be made that sturdy.
　It would be easy to tear it down.
　When I break the birdcage, Wendy and the children come running out.

'Thank you, Mr. Kuroki!　And little Tiber!　You're here to help!

　Wendy pounces on Tiber.

'Hey!　What are you doing?!

　Tiber runs away in a hurry.
　The children go to Tiber's place, too.

'Wow!　It's a little fairy!
'It's true!　Really!
'That's a beautiful feather!　Hey!　You can touch it!
That's great, and that's exactly what Auntie Wendy said.

　The children are excited. Tiber is very popular.
　The beautiful lapis lazuli feathers glitter and drop particles as they fly by, drawing the eye.
　You don't have to be a child to admire it.
　Tiber, on the other hand, looks very uncomfortable.

''Hey!　Don't get too close!　Little human!

　Tiber hides behind himself as he flies.
　The children look disappointed.
　But as long as Tiber doesn't want to, they can't force him forward.

''It's not like I wanted to help you!

　Tibel is pissed off with a pout.
　It's true that Tiber didn't want to help Wendy.
　She just had to go along with herself.
　However, that didn't seem to matter to Wendy.

'But you did come to help me after all, didn't you? Thank you, Tiber. ......

　Large tears spill from Wendy's eyes.
　Seeing them makes me feel warm inside myself.
　It's a beautiful sight. It's like a lie that I was looking at the old man's ass just a few minutes ago.

'Well, Wendy, we're going to get out of here now. We're going to get out of here soon. Okay?
Gusu. Yes ....... I'm running, guys!　Lili. Get everyone together.
All right, Wendy. Nice to meet you, Uncle.
'Eh ....... Uncle .......

　It hurts a bit to be called an uncle.
　Well, a child of this age would have no choice but to be called an uncle himself.
　But I can't get hurt like this.

Then everyone. Follow me.

　As I was about to head for the door with that thought, I felt someone approaching.

"Dear Fairy Tamer!　Are you all right?!

　It was Frutin and his friends who came in. Mardas and his friends were with them.
　There weren't many undead.
　They must have defeated them all and come after them.
　But it was just as well.

''You have come well, Frutin-dono. Please help me get the children here to escape.

　Frutin laughs as he says this.

'I see, so those are the children held captive by the vampires? Of course we will help you. 'Yes, Lord Mardas.'
Yeah, sure. Right, boys?
Yeah, I like kids.
Heh, don't worry. I'll take you to a better place than this.
Yeah, your uncles will do it.

　The old men who have a manly expression.
　However, the sight of a naked man and a child lined up feels something dangerous.
　If this is Japan, I think that I have to call the police.

Well, let's go to ......

　That was when I said that. Tibel suddenly flapped her wings wide.

''Oh my God~!　Danger is approaching, sir!

　And that was the next moment.
　Something huge comes in through the window.

'Kyah!'
What?

　The children and the old man panic.
　The smoke subsides and they see something that has come in.
　It's the bow section of the ship.

'Huh. ....... It looks like we've met in time. You shouldn't have tried to escape, you children.

　Someone is standing in the bow section of the ship.
　A shiver runs down my spine at the sight of her.
　It's a woman in a gorgeous red outfit.
　However, her eyes shine red, her left arm is swollen up, and her fingertips are like claws.

'Zafarada: ......'

　Zafarada, daughter of Zarxis, god of death, the goddess of corruption and pestilence, is there.
　I didn't get there in time.
　He could feel a cold sweat running down his cheeks.
