“Well then, my lovely Savior. If you accept our proposal, you will not be inconvenienced any further. However, if you don’t accept it, then you’re just a hindrance. Please consider your life forfeit.”

“As I told you over and over, I will not do what you terrorists say. Trying to make me abandon the duty of the Savior…!”

“Shut up, brat!”

The leader man was enraged and reflexively shot his gun. It grazed Miss Airi’s sidelocks and pierced through the wall behind her.

But Miss Airi didn’t move. Her strong-willed eyes irritated the man more and more.

“What Savior! I don’t believe in people from other worlds in the first place! We can’t leave this country under the care of a king who clings to some suspicious legend…!”

The man kicked an old chair, and it slid to us who were obediently in the corner. His gaze slowly moved towards us.

“I see. Right...let’s kill the students there one by one. That should change our kind Savior’s opinion.”

“!?”

Oh no. At this rate, we would be killed one by one like side characters, just as Miss Airi said. We had no rings, our mouths were sealed, and we couldn’t use any magic worth mentioning.

The leader man first looked down at me, the weakest-looking girl in the group, his frame hanging over me. It was to strike fear into the other person.

But I pretended to be afraid of the man’s gaze and looked away, making brief eye contact with Nero next to me.

“Beautiful young lady, what is a student of Lune Ruschia doing in a place like this?”

“...”

“Now, how shall I kill you. I think it should be painful and brutal enough to break the heart of an impertinent girl from another world. Poor thing, because you came to this place…”

While thrusting the gun into my chest, the man’s other hand touched my cheek.

An ordinary girl would be terrified enough to cry, but I was actually waiting for this moment.

Because, my skin was…

“Gyaaaaah!”

The man suddenly screamed and immediately withdrew his hand, twisting his body in pain.

“My hand, my hand…!!”

His fingertips were horribly burned, and there was dark smoke rising from them.

I was blessed by【Fire】. When I got excited, my skin became hot enough to burn.

Lately, I’ve been able to control this power more and more, so I can also consciously burn anything that touched me.

The man was indignant as he looked at me again with his face twisted in pain.

“What the hell did you do? What is this——!?”

But I was looking up at him too. Thanks to the high-quality Pon eye drops, my witch’s eyes were tinged with a much more conspicuous magical power.

As though he was being glared at by a snake, the man stiffened.

Right after that, the ropes that bound us were removed. When the enemy was distracted and there was an opening, Nero broke the rope’s binding spell. Frey kicked off against the wall next to him, retrieved our tools that were quickly taken by the enemy, and threw my ring to me.

I caught it, took off the cloth that bound my mouth, and bared my teeth into a grin.

And then I chanted a magic incantation.

“Mel vis makia——Ropes, rampage!”

I used the ropes that bound us, made them dance violently, and hit the enemy like whips.

“Uwaaaah!”

The enemy men curled up their bodies at this attack, now unable to do anything except for protecting themselves.

“Gyaah, are you gonna whip us too!?”

“I said I was sorry, Frey. I just can’t control it finely.”

Since Nero cast a protective wall magic, our bodies were protected from the attack as we headed for Miss Airi who was alongside the wall. Nero had already untied her ropes.

“Let’s go, Miss Airi. We can’t stay here.”

“But…”

“Nobody’s going to find this place unless we do something ourselves!”

“...”

Miss Airi looked like she wanted to say something, but she sighed and followed us, perhaps thinking that her knights won’t be able to rescue her splendidly in such a chaotic situation.

“Hurry! The protective wall magic is going to wear off soon.”

At Nero’s call, we hurriedly left the hut.

And then we ran and ran and ran, and escaped. While still having no idea where we were, or who were those guys.
