I have been assigned by Linda to help free the prisoners of this land from the clutches of the Empire. Not an easy task, considering they're all tied up and hurled together, as well as being protected by Imperial soldiers. I'm not sure why they need to capture them, but I can sense that they won't hesitate to kill any of them if necessary, and that's exactly what they did.
"Move and I will definitely kill this child next!"
"Mother! Mother!"
"Shut up!"
He kicked the mother's head so hard that she immediately fainted. That made us all mad. Like super mad. To make the situation worse
"What's the matter, Dana? Can't move? Then how about this?"
"Urghhh!" [Dana]
"Dana!" [Diana]
"And you too little Diana! How could you run away!? Who is going to provide us with water, you damned brat!"
"Urgh!"
"Damn you!" [Dana]
"Shut up!"
Tchh! He's really taking advantage of this hostage situation. Dana gets punched right in the face and I get kicked as I instinctively move to heal her. I really just need to buy some time.
"Do you really think we don't know your tactics? The talisman provided by the church and the protection of a witch made especially for you. Not sure why we have to be overly cautious of you, but the prince said so."
"Grr..." [Diana]
The talisman and the protection are strong. I'm sure my sleeping spell with the help of Fairy Queen Titania's blessing can definitely break through, but it will definitely take time and they will definitely notice. One wrong step and they will definitely kill more hostages. Think Diana, think!
This is a swamp area... This means that the Water Fairy Miss Aqua, the Flora and Fauna Fairy Miss Borneo and the Earth Fairy Miss Gaia can definitely take advantage of it. A muddy wave to drown them all? The hostages will be captured. Have the trees protect the hostages. Possible, but they're elite, trained to fight elves, as the previous spell proves.
"Sigh... Dana, Kat, Elder Giant. Please make an opening" [Linda].
"Not sure what you will do, but okay" [Dana]
"I'll do my best" [Kat]
"Understood" [Elder Giant]
"What are you whispering about?"
"Since the hostages are really of little to no value to you, how about fellow knights or adventurers here?"
"You are all mere cattle compared to us, the superior born of the empire! Be worthy at least once by sacrificing your lives for us!"
One of them starts to attack the nearby knight and adventurer. Since they really threaten to kill a boy, they did nothing but receive the attack and even
"Kyaaaa!"
"Shut up! A decapitated head from you low class Philip isn't much of a fuss!"
"Damn you... DAMN YOU!" [Dana]
"Beastly transformation: Thunder Cat" [Kat]
In anger, Dana awakens her fairy transformation, the same one she used when she was angry with the devil! It's as beautiful as the last time I saw it. Powerful thunder mana erupted around her. As for Kat, I only know Miss Aya from the Special Knight of Amleth, who awakens her beastly transformation from the cat beastman species, so I am surprised when even Kat is able to do it. When Miss Aya awakens, she is covered in dark mana, while Kat is covered in thunder.
The two of them, without missing a beat, quickly try to save the hostages with a roar of thunder. They rush in, creating a surprise attack. The first strike of the two of them managed to catch one of the Empire soldiers off guard, as Dana managed to pierce the chest of an Empire soldier, while Kat was able to cut the arm of the one threatening to kill the boy.
However, the Empire soldier are not to be scuffed. They're quick on their feet. One of them tries to cut Kat's tail off, and they almost did, if the Elder Giant hadn't saved the day.
"Space Magic: Transfer" [Linda]
A scroll from Linda's side is activated. It causes a scroll Kat is carrying on her hip to glow brightly with space mana. I see! As expected from an A-rank adventure!
"Not what I planned, but good enough" [Linda]
"You're really good!" [Diana]
"Damn it! Now that I look closely, that woman is the famous A-class adventure!"
"The hostages! Damn it! Just kill them all if that's the case!"
"Diana. Protect the hostages. Also, prepare to put the Imperial Soldier to sleep. Fie, help Diana" [Linda]
"Right! A nightmare spell is coming!" [Diana]
"Meow!" [Fie]
