109 061. Angel of Death -1 Part One

Humite’s citizens were getting really pumped up.

The military inspection-cum-parade had come to an end and various competitions got underway.

The academy’s students who were mastering magic eagerly displayed the breadth and scope of their talents, while those walking on the path of the sword began sparring against each other as the spectators watched on.

Even regular citizens participated in various competitions and managed to win a few prizes along the way.

The citizens enjoyed the festivities and continued spending wonderful time while forgetting about their anxiety over the war.

Charlotte, who was quietly observing them, shifted her gaze away. She was sitting on a bench, waiting to enter one of the competitions. Her eyes now rested on a large box next to her.

This was the present Oscal talked about, delivered through Harman earlier. While still sitting on the bench, she opened the lid of the large box and her eyes instantly opened wider at its contents.

A set of white-coloured armour meant for women could be found inside.

“Thank you.”

“…Actually, your rank is far higher than mine, so for me to offer you a word of advice like this is a little against the decorum, but well…”

Charlotte smiled wryly before asking Harman. “Do you mind if I try it on?”

“There should be a waiting room nearby. You may be able to change your attire there. You can show your new armour to his highness later on too. I’m sure he’ll be pleased.”

A bright smile spread on Charlotte’s face the moment she heard that.

She easily lifted up the box that looked fairly heavy even for an adult man, and with airy steps, she headed straight to the aforementioned waiting room.

Harman watched her leave and smiled wryly.

A girl so much younger than him was now his superior. Honestly, he didn’t care about this point all that much, but what he did mind about was her true ‘identity’.

It was too late to go back now, though.

He spotted a massive ‘animal’ in an alleyway.

There was a lion as well as a lamb. Then, next to the creatures were some people who seemed to be the animal trainers, judging from their black robes, and the whips and staves held in their hands.

Who were they? Did a circus troupe also get invited to perform today?

Just who could they be? Even if the animals were tamed, how could anyone think that it was a good idea to let loose such a powerful predator like that?

However, something… didn’t seem quite right about those animals.

The lamb’s head was actually attached to the lion’s body, and its tail was a snake.

Even the other citizens flinched in surprise and stared at this bizarre lifeform. Just as they began realising what it was, the ‘chimera’ opened its maw wide, and then… pounced on the citizens, literally biting their heads off.

Screams resounded out.
