Chapter 309 – Knives and forks

Oh? Isn’t this the wrong direction?

I suddenly realize this as I follow the sister who is walking fast and guiding me to the exit.

I don’t really know my way around this church, but I remember what I saw when I flew here with Seilook, and being taken to Kahelone’s room.
And I’ve walked around with Kahelone a couple of times.

I look around to check my surroundings as I put it all together, and I really get the feeling that we’re going in the opposite direction of the exit.
Are we heading to the back of the church?

“Sister, have you heard anything about the royal castle!?”

I ask as the distance between us slowly grows.

“It seems there is a battle going on.”

“Yes.
It sounds like they haven’t fully gained control.
Are the points in the castle safe?”

“…What did you say?”

She immediately stops, and so do I.

“Sister, this is the kitchen, isn’t it? Weren’t you going to take me outside? Sister?”

“…Enough.
You can die here.”

She says as she pushes both sleeves and spreads her arms in the air.

I can see things shining in her hands just before they fly at me.

“《Activate》, 《Manifest》 Aroma Vine!”

I activate the scroll I sneakily took out, and vines burst out of it.

Aroma Vine is smaller than Rose, but not less skilled.
Its aroma has many effects, and it’s better than Rose at more minute jobs.

If Rose is toughness, Aroma Vine is flexibility.

Compared to Rose’s raw power, Aroma Vine’s more delicate features are good when it comes to dealing with people.

With monsters, it’s fine if Rose tears them to shreds, but with people…

Aroma Vine wraps around all the objects being thrown at me, leaving them trapped between the many leaves on the vines.

“Knives and forks?”

Is what the lady who was supposed to be guiding me is throwing.

“Tch.”

I hear from her, and as if waiting for this signal, a lot of tableware placed around the kitchen starts floating.
