Marie and her group arrived at Lake Wurz, the largest lake in Shinano.
This town has a large lake, but it was contaminated by the curse poison of the Yokai.
ㅤ
『This is awful. . . . . . I feel like my nose is going to twist!』
ㅤ
Marie parked the carriage by the lake.
Ose, a black cat demon, involuntarily pinched his nose due to the stench of the polluted water.
ㅤ
Kaito also had a similar reaction, making a disgusted face.
ㅤ
“It smells like rotten eggs and other strange odors mixed together. . . . . .”
ㅤ
Marie also frowned, clearly displeased.
ㅤ
“How terrible. . . . . .”
ㅤ
At that moment, a man who appeared to be the town mayor approached them.
Kaito started a conversation with him.
ㅤ
“Nice to meet you. I am Machiosa, the mayor of this town.”
ㅤ
Machiosa bowed his head in front of Marie and her group.
Fatigue was evident on his face.
ㅤ
Presumably, they were burdened by the pollution of this lake.
Reading the situation from his expression, Kaito looked at him with sympathy.
ㅤ
On the other hand, Marie’s face changed from her earlier laid-back expression.
She pointed to the lake with a grim face.
ㅤ
“How long has this lake been like this?”
“Ever since the Sorcerer King came. His Yokai started living in this lake and ever since, Lake Wurz has been in this condition.”
“I see. . . . . . So some kind of Yokai is living in this lake.”
ㅤ
It seems that simply purifying the lake won’t be enough.
Marie thrust her right hand forward, bending her index finger.
ㅤ
Then, the lake. . . . . .
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
ㅤ
With a loud noise, a gigantic Yokai emerged from the lake.
ㅤ
『What?! Witch-sama, what did you do?』
“Just simple gravity magic.”
『Gravity magic? Isn’t that one of the Ancient Magics?!』
ㅤ
Ancient Magic.
It’s magic that isn’t classified by attributes, yet it has extraordinary effects.
ㅤ
There are spells like flight magic and appraisal magic.
And then there are also spells like. . . . . .
ㅤ
Gravity magic, time-stopping magic.
Incredible spells that humans can’t possibly use are also categorized as Ancient Magic.
ㅤ
『Who dares to disturb my sleep. . . . . .?!』
ㅤ
Facing the filthy Yokai, Marie spoke with a resolute attitude.
ㅤ
“It’s me. I am Marie. The one who will kill you.”
ㅤ
Kaito thought, 『Witch-sama is so cool for protecting the weak.』
But Ose knew.
ㅤ
『You’re probably just pissed because the smell is ruining your meal, aren’t you?』
ㅤ
Marie naturally nodded.
She was a woman who was always self-centered.
