262 243 Have you finished dancing?





 This is brainwashing magic.

 Obviously, right now, I was touched on the cheek by Spica and activated the 《Brainwashing Magic》.

 This is a sensation I can understand because Winfiled once cast a "brainwashing spell" on me. It's as if too much of something was thrown into my brain all at once, and it exploded, that "boom! It was exactly the same as the feeling that I had.

 And ...... this is also a phenomenon because I was brainwashed by Winfiled once.

 The 《Brainwashing Magic》 isn't working for me (・・・・・・) ......!

 Yes, only one brainwashing is allowed per person. Apparently that restriction is the same in Mevion and in this world.

 ...... I see, this was done. That Winfiled guy, he knew that Spica had mastered the 《Brainwashing Magic》 and brainwashed me beforehand, didn't he?

 So the brainwashing of me was the best brainwashing measure ever.

 After all, that wasn't just to make me fight Anko and Miroku and make me decide to spread my skills around. I had expected it to be a move that would kill several birds with one stone, but I didn't know that it would even affect this situation: .......


''Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh! Oh, Seven. Why are you such a beautiful woman: ......? Your long eyelashes, your stringy nose, your silvery white hair, your tall stature, your strong body, your enticing smell, all of it, all of it, is mine. You will be my lover, no, you will be my husband. And you will be the emperor, and I will be the queen. You will love me all the days of your life, and you will be there to support and protect me. You will listen to me slowly when I'm down. I hope you will laugh and forgive me if I am lying to you. I will do whatever I want you to do for me. See, you know what I mean?


 Spica said all the unpleasant things she wanted to say with her debauched eyes, and after taking a few steps back, she sat back in her chair and looked at me.

 Apparently she, she thinks I'm under the influence of 《Brainwashing Magic》.

 I guess it was working until now, but it's a shame. I have a warlord.


 ...... hmm? Ever (...) ......? Hey, no way. .......


"Hey, Seven. What's up? Are you embarrassed because you're in front of your father? It's okay, never mind. Come here. Come here. I'm going to do something special for you. Uh-huh.

 Spica sat back in her chair, uncrossed her legs, moving them glossily, and exhaling, she said.


'Lick me,'


 I don't know where to go!

 She's a big ol' slut.

 She's trying to get me to f*ck her in front of the Emperor.

 ...... No, wait. Why does Spica call the Emperor "Father"? It's been bothering me for a while now. It's not even my own daughter.

 And she's going to play this kinky game in front of the Emperor. While telling him not to worry about it.


'............!'

 Yikes, I've figured it out. Maybe it's called father-daughter play: ......?

 The Emperor has already cast a brainwashing spell on him. The fact that he hasn't said anything about this situation right now is a sure sign. In other words, Spica had brainwashed the emperor and used him as a father figure to enjoy the play, right?

 If that's the case, ...... you're an unimaginably ridiculous woman, seriously.


Seven, come on!

 Spica has a sweet voice that invites me to join her.


 Well, what shall I do? First, we must capture Spica, and then we can release the Emperor's Brainwashing Magic. But once Spica gives a command, the emperor will follow it regardless of his own will. If that's the case, do you want to keep Spica's mouth shut? But if I had ordered him to "protect me" from the original, then the emperor would be on Spica's side and I would be the one who would be the bad guy.

 ...... It's a speed game. First Spica, then the Emperor instantly.


'What, Seb, n ......!


 While taking out 16lb of fluorocarbon from my inventory, I activated the Golden General's Thread Manipulation Technique and quickly began to restrain Spica.

 Spica's face was unbelievable as he was tied up in a circle with the thread.


''No! Why! Why? The brainwashing isn't working!


 After a beat, he finally understood the situation and suddenly became half-crazed and started screaming while scratching algae.

 However, Spica was already in such a whirlwind that it was impossible for her to escape on her own.


''Funny! Why! Why! Oh, father, muguguggy ......!


 Tears welling up in my eyes, I tied up Spica's mouth as she continued to scream and silenced her instructions. Then I walked to the emperor.


'Seven, what are you doing over there ......? Why is Spica tied up: ......?

 The Emperor seems to be doing okay. He seems confused, but perhaps it's because he hasn't received any particular orders from Spica, or maybe it's because he was ordered to "keep quiet" in order to play with me, but he hasn't tried to take any action.

 Then, let's get the emperor to feel the "death" and release him from the "brainwashing spell" right away--!



Ah!


 ...... moment, I jumped away from the scene as fast as I could.

 It's almost a spinal reflex. When I saw the reflection of the "shadow" on the emperor's crown, my body was already moving and I was already ducking the attack.


''!

 The shadow looks back at me, perhaps in surprise, as soon as it lands.

 I can see it. Yeah, I would have liked you to keep that mask off if you could. And I want you to show me your face when you duck the blow you'll never duck. I'd never get tired of that, no matter how many times I saw it.


"Casablanca, huh? You've done it.

 In the mere moment I was observing the emperor, Casablanca seemed to have released Spica's restraints and let her go.

 Just now, I saw Spica leaving the room.


''Are you brainwashed too?''

............

 You can take this as a silent affirmation.


'Well, let's start with you.'


 Change of plans. First, I have to break Casablanca's brainwashing spell.

 Now, let's just call it a pre-Keiou battle.

 But I'm only familiar with the Infantry Assassination Technique and the Incense Car Assassination Technique. Is it too much to ask?

 Well, not in the usual sense, but fortunately, we're going to get ahead of it. We have a chance to win.


!

 Let's frame him with his famous move.

 I activate the 《Infantry Assassination Technique》 while putting my weight behind me in a backstep preparation stance, and thrust a toothpick towards Casablanca's left shoulder, which is about to turn into an attack with my right hand right now.

 Casablanca, who wasn't fooled by my small feint, drew back her left leg and ducked, and began to prepare for the 《Silver General Assassination Technique》. The Silver General is a skill that pays off with the dark weapon of a blade. Since it is a skill suited for close range, I can understand why she would want to take it out here.

 However, from ...... her poor reaction, her slow first move, and her second choice of Silver General, she apparently doesn't know about this move.

 Well, I feel sorry for her. It would be a bit harsh to say that we should be able to read the best response at the first moment of the game.

 Now, let's take a look at it. This is a technique called "dancing".


!

 She would have thought she "got it".

 I can activate the Silver General at the best possible time to cut back against me as I unleash my infantry. It's impossible not to feel that the counterattack stung with this.

 But if I take three steps back with an all-out backstep right after the infantry activation and immediately after the stiffness of the infantry activation--''


''Wha......?''


 Ichi, nii, sun. It was as if we were dancing together, Casablanca advancing and me retreating, moving at a perfect close range.

 The point of making a ready backstep and activating the infantry was not just to feint, but to smooth out this retreat. It was a move that could only be done by infantry with the shortest rigidity time.

 The 《Silver General Assassination Technique》 would be a traveling decision if he moved more than four steps, and only rigidity would hit him after the skill was used. Therefore, you can only take three steps. The fourth step is a rotation.


''I finally heard your voice.


 Whispering, he spins his fourth step around to her right side and slides his body around to her right hand side, and then goes behind her.

 Casablanca twists her body counterclockwise and tries to hit the Silver General, but there's no way she can hit it if it's attached to her back in a flattened position.

 In the end, her Silver General never hits, and stiffness comes after the end of the Silver General activation.



''


 --I guess it's desperation.

 With nothing to resist, there's me behind her.

 I wonder how much longer she's experiencing now, how much longer? It seems to feel really good. Just remembering that slow motion makes me shiver. I want to experience it again.


.................. ah, ......


 With a chop, I touched its neck with the tip of a toothpick.

 Immediately after, Casablanca shuddered and collapsed from her knees.

 If she's still willing to do it, she'll see this place where I've loosened my hand as an opportunity to fight back. But she shows no signs of moving any further.


 Perhaps ...... 《Brainwashing Magic》 has been broken.



''Ah, ah, ......!


 Casablanca holds her head and sounds delirious.

 Well, I know how you feel. I've been brainwashed once before. She seems to have been around for quite a long time, and I'm sure she was made to do a lot of things she didn't want to do. But...


Come on, get up. You can give me a hard time later. Emperor or Spica, take your pick. Don't you want to feel better?

...... ......!


 I walked around to the front of Casablanca, got down on my knees, and held out my hand and said

 After the brainwashing is released, I'm mysteriously not confused. It just comes back to me. She should remember the events that took place during the brainwashing as well as I do, as if they were normal.

 Then you're going to have to work for it. Either half kill the emperor and break his brainwashing, or go after Spica and capture him. We'll let you do one of those things.


............

 Silence.

 However, her eyes had already regained their composure, as if to say that she was the Shadow King.


''Thank you for ....... I will follow Spica Amrit.

 Casablanca squeezes my hand back and stands up.

 She chose to capture Spica. Well, I guess it's appropriate. She's been shadowing Spica for a long time, she must be able to predict some of the escape routes and behavior patterns.

'Scatter.'

 A short word is uttered by Casablanca to the ceiling.

 Did you disband the shadows that were guarding the Emperor? Probably so. You've made my job easier.


Nice to meet you.

 Casablanca responded to my call with a nod and disappeared into the darkness at high AGI. I look away and then turn to the Emperor.


 Now, what should I do to make the emperor feel 'death'?

 I guess I'll just have to use the most impactful attack method.

 Then I guess I'll have to use the 《Long King Spear Technique》.


"Wait, wait, what are you doing? Yo ......, give me that!

 I turned around and said, "What the hell are you doing?! What's going on! Shadow! Where's the shadow?! And ignoring the noisy emperor, I take out the Missus Spear from my inventory while eyeing the distance.


''Don't move. And if you die, I'm sorry.

 Oh, I shouldn't have said that, should I? Oh well.

 Yo, ......!


"Yiiiiii--!


 《The Dragon King Spear Technique》 Upon completion of the preparation and activation, he takes three steps forward as fast as he can and then makes two rotations to the left, the third rotation makes him jump up like a gymnastics floor, the fourth rotation strengthens the centrifugal force, the fifth rotation extends the spear to gain maximum momentum, and the sixth rotation brings it down upon landing.

 With the height and rotation added to the Dragon King's effects, it should look awesome. It's like a large truck on fire, spinning and falling down.


''


 The emperor let out a muffled cry and collapsed on the spot.

 Whoa, that was close. If the emperor had moved, he really would have hit him directly.

 The spear's cutting edge stopped just five centimeters from the emperor's forehead. There was no attack judgment, so even such a flashy dragon king effect would not do any damage.

 Now, was the "brainwashing spell" cast on the emperor lifted ......?


............ Oh, oh, oh ...... goodness, .......


 It seems to have unraveled.

 But he's grunting and grunting with his hand on his forehead. Can't you just accept that you've been brainwashed? No, it doesn't. Once the brainwashing is over, you will come back to yourself. The memories during the brainwashing are unmistakably what I experienced.

 ...... Well, you don't want to believe the heavy experience of being forced to play father-daughter, not to mention having your empire taken over by Spica.


'Your Majesty,'

...... se, Seven. Yo, yo, yo is ......!

'Let's settle down. I'll go capture Spica and then we can talk.

............, mm-hmm, yeah, yeah, do that. You'll be in charge of everything.


 Awesome, the emperor is as mental as Casablanca. He's already regained his composure and is about to give his orders as emperor.

 Even with the last-minute stoppage, he didn't ask me about this or that, he must have grasped the method of releasing the brainwashing by comparing it to the exchange with Casablanca in the present moment. Maybe Emperor Gordo Marvel is a smarter person than I thought.


 Well, hey, I've got a lot of questions I want to ask him, too.

 Well, I guess I'll just have to go get a spica as fast as I can: .......
