235 . Aristocrat 5



[Text]
 Unya, who is changing into her racial form, holds out a cup of tea in front of me and Erdena and leaves the room with a bow.
 The guards who came in with Wunya also leave with her.
 And as soon as the door to the room closes.
"Uh.
Gulp.
 The muffled voices of several men could be heard from outside the door.
 Not long after, the door to the room opened again.
 As they entered, Unya's tail seemed to extend, and she went on to destroy the surveillance crystal attached to the ceiling of the room.
''Botchan! Lady Eldena! It's good to hear that you're safe.
 After confirming the destruction of the crystal, Unya came hugging me and Erdena.
 The figure was not the figure of the race we had just seen, nor was it the usual cat people.....
 The tail on its back had nine tails, and its body was somewhat slimmer than usual, giving the impression that its entire body had become very sharp.
''.........Unya, were you by any chance an elemental cat people?''
 Erdena couldn't help but shout when she saw the figure.

 I've heard of the name Nekomata People (Elemental Cat People), too.
 I'm sure it's a sub-human that boasts a tremendous attack power.
 However, the Elemental Cat People were already thought to be extinct.
 Because of its high fighting ability, it was often used as a tool for assassination, and it is said to have been exterminated by the Bobblebum religion, which was concerned about its danger....

We'll talk about that later. Right now we need to get out of here.
 After saying that, Unja put her hands on the floor.
''But Unya, we're underground.......and if they destroyed that surveillance crystal, the guards will come running in immediately.......''
''Well maybe we can get out of here on our own if it's just Unja, but not with us...''
 Me and Erdena anxiously call out to Unja.
'Unya, at least you can get out of here and tell someone about our situation.
 As I said this, Unja smiled at me.

 As he said this, Wunya dug his claws into the cobblestone gap in the floor and ripped it off in one fell swoop.
 Underneath it was directly on the ground, exposing the dirt.
 Then Unya began to emit a strange squeal against the surface of the dirt.
 Its super high-pitched squeal was almost inaudible to our ears.
 However, it continued to make the air in the room shake.
 As Una continued its whine towards the ground, we heard the sound of footsteps coming from the corridor, with multiple guards running towards us.
''Not good!''
 I walked up to the door and quickly closed it.
 The inner lock has been removed, probably out of consideration for preventing people from getting holed up.
 Fortunately, the door is designed to open inward.
 I move the couches and desks in the room in front of the door.
 Eldena also tried to destroy the doorknob with magic.
 But the magic inhibition area seems to have developed in the room, and both Erdena and I were unable to use magic.
 Soon after, the sound of knocking on the door began to echo in the room.
''Safate-dono, please open this door!
Now we won't do anything bad!
 The guards bang on the door and push it open, saying so verbally.
 Me and Erdena desperately push it in, pressing our backs against the couch.
 For a while, that offense and defense continued.

 ........That was when.

 The earthen surface where Unna was emitting squeals suddenly fell with a bump and hollowed out.
 Then, countless bone people appeared from within it and entered the room.
 From behind them, Sarah entered the room.
'Sorry, the bedrock was unexpectedly hard, it took me a while to dig through it.
Okay, meow, you're just in time.
 Sarah exchanged a few words with Unya.
 Meanwhile, the bone humans came into the room and started pushing the couch as they rushed towards us.
'You two, let those bone people do the rest, come on,'
 With that, Sarah beckoned me and Eldena towards the hole.
 We walked into the hole just as Sarah called us.
 We'll be able to see what's going on, and we'll be able to see what's going on.
 The inside of the hole is narrow, but the inside is quite wide, and thanks to that we were able to rush through.
'But Sarah, how did you find that place?'
Ah, Lord Geltar gave me the details. He said that if the lords were to be put under house arrest, they would be there.
Geltzer?
'Ah, when Lord Gelter heard that the lords had been summoned to the House of Lords, he came to Liberty Combe with a change of blood and should be up here now.
Up?
Well, I'll tell you later. Anyway, I hear we have to get out of here before we can expose the elders of the Senate for what they've done.
 Once Sarah had told me that much, the hole led into a certain space.
''Is this........is this by any chance the underground pipeline to the royal capital?
Oh, yeah.
 At my words, Sarah nodded with a coy smile.

 There are various pipes stretching throughout the capital.
 The water pipes, sewer pipes and other pipes that are essential for life are all threaded together through these underground pipelines.

"I dug a horizontal hole from the nearest underground pipeline to the Senate to the basement of the Senate, and then waited for the sonic signal from Lord Unya.
Wunya's sonic voice penetrates to the underground.
 Sarah and Unja smile at that.
 Erdena's expression becomes cloudy at such two people.
''........But with the underground plumbing passage close to the Senate, the guards will be coming soon......''
Oh, that shouldn't be a problem. The guards don't have time for that right now.
What?
Anyway, little girl, we have to get out of here first.
 With a puzzled look on my face, Erdena and I followed Unya and Sarah through the underground plumbing ducts as they were prompted.

◇ ◇ ◇.

 Soon after, we emerged from one of the exits of an underground plumbing road in the back streets.
 To my surprise, there were a tremendous number of people surrounding it.
 I winced at the sight.
'Oh, it's okay, Mr. Safate, these are all regular customers of my store.
 While saying this, the one who called out to me was the goblin people (goblin people) of the Three Dragons Pavilion.
The guards suddenly became very cautious about this area after Unja and the others went in here, we are driving them out of here.
 The old man said so and smiled with a smirk.
 When I looked closely, I realized that the people gathered around him were all sub-humans.
 They are all familiar faces that I have seen many times at the Three Dragons Pavilion.
 They gave us a smile and pushed back all the guards who were trying to come here at once.
''All the sub-people in this back street are on your side, don't worry,''
 As he said this, the old man, a kobold (goblin people), led us to the back of the street.
