Otome Game Mob Villain

Chapter 403

It has been several days since training resumed with Cross.

The site inspections and cleanup after the attack have settled down to a routine, and the Technical Development Department, led by Ellen and Alex, both dwarves, is operating as normal.

Of course, the security system has been reviewed, and even I had to apply in advance to enter the workshop premises.

It's a weak "countermeasure against the art of transformation," but it's better than nothing.

In addition, under my direction, the Special Frontier Unit of the Second Order is conducting an investigation of the attackers' footsteps and what kind of espionage activities they were conducting, focusing on the border points with Zubera.

As far as the skill of the attackers, Claire and her group, is concerned, the information we can obtain may be limited.

But we are hoping to find some clues.

When I explained the details of the attack to the children of the Second Order, many of them were furious, saying, "How stupid do they think we are to kidnap them while abandoning us? It was hard to calm them down.

Just the other day, Father left for the capital.

He reported the details of the attack and confirmed the source of the suspicious allegation whispered in the capital that "Bardia is treating the children of the beastmen tribe as slaves.

And, if necessary, to dispel the allegations.

Of course, it is not true that Bardia treats the children of beastmen as slaves.

However, it is a fact that Bhardia protected those children by attacking them at the very edge of not breaking the imperial law and accepted them. It is a fact that they were accepted.

It is just that some imperial aristocrats have been jealous and cynical and have been trying to fry them.

It could be taken that way, but the period when Bardia was attacked and the period when the claim spread in the imperial capital conveniently coincide.

Father also seemed to be concerned about this, and therefore said he would come and find out where the claims were coming from.

Everyone is moving forward with what they need to do to prepare for the next step.

As for me, I was thinking back on the fact that I couldn't get a hold of Claire, the attacker, and I decided to use the Body Strengthening Type 2 that my father had taught me.

I have been training every day to be able to use the physical attribute enhancement, "Retsubi," which my father taught me, and beyond that, to be able to use it.

But the past few days, I have not just been training.

In fact, I came up with a secret plan to become stronger as quickly as possible.

When I arrived at the training ground to train with Cross as usual, he said, "Yo koi syo ......," and carefully lowered a wooden bottle box to the ground.

The box contained a large number of bottles filled with a "certain liquid".

Cross saw this and tilted his head with a frown.

'Master Rid, what is that?　And today, not only Diana, but also Farah and Asuna, as well as Sandra with us"

"Yes. Today I want to try out some special strength training."

"Special strengthening ...... training?"

Cross is looking at me in amazement, while Diana and Fara, who are waiting behind me, are sighing "huh ......" and Sandra is smiling happily.

Asuna's eyes are somewhat full of anticipation.

The inspiration for the special strengthening training goes back to a few days ago.

The other day, after activating the Type 2 and intense fire, I became exhausted from the load of the magical power and was unable to move for two whole days.

However, when I recovered from that state, I was definitely better than before at using the Type 2 and my body was able to withstand the magical load.

By the way, according to Cross, there are three ways to build a body that can withstand the magical load of Shikaku and Retsubi.

The first is physical growth with age.

The second is to train the body.

The third is to let the body become familiar with the burdens of magic power.

In other words, the last time I fell asleep, I unintentionally did the second and third.

Normally, if a person falls asleep due to a magical overload, it takes a long time for the body to recover from the overload by natural recovery alone.

But Bardia has a 'magic recovery medicine."

There was no way I could not use this.

I learned later that I had been taking a "magic restorative" for the entire day when I was sleeping.

I had a nightmare at the time, though.

Based on this experience and the method of building a body capable of withstanding magical power that Cross had told me about, Sandra and I devised the "Special Strengthening Training.

When I told Cross about the details of the "special training," his complexion turned pale and drawn.

"In other words, using the ......-2 type, we will apply a magical load to the body to the limit. After that, immediately after that, you will take a rest by gulping down an undiluted solution of "magic power recovery medicine. When you calm down, resume training. And the above is repeated?"

"Yes. The most effective way to do this is to use the "magic recovery medicine". Also, just in case something happens, I asked Sandra to come too, just in case."

"I see. By the way, why are Fara-sama and Asuna-dono here?"

I'm here as a chaperon with Diana to make sure that Master Rid doesn't go too far.

"Oh ...... that's what you mean," Cross nodded his head in agreement.

I have reported this special training to my father in advance and received his approval.

Of course, he was opposed to it at first, but my father agreed to it because of my passion to become stronger.

However, he made it a condition that Sandra would also be present during the training.

This was so that we could be prepared for any eventuality.

I explained this to Fara afterwards, but she refused, saying, "If that's the case, I'll definitely be there when the training takes place!"

And here we are now.

"However, there is one concern about this training. "

"What is it about ......?"

The eyebrows twitched, and Cross's expression clouded over.

But I dared to smile at him.

As long as he's going to accompany you to training with you, Cross is going to have to drink that 'undiluted' solution as well.

Saying so, she pointed to a box of bottles containing the original solution of the magic restorative, and looked at Cross again.

"I want you to be prepared for that."

"......Why would I need to be prepared to take the potion?"

I smile wryly at him as he tilts his head dubiously.

"Hmmm . You'll understand that when you drink it. But I'm telling you, you can't refuse Cross"

What?　Well, in any case, if Rainer-sama's permission has been obtained, there will be no problem. Then, let's try the 'special strengthening training' that Master Rid and Sandra have devised.

"Yes, let's do it together!"

After activating the second form, I and Cross gave the body a magical load to the near limit and took a break by drinking a "magical power recovery medicine".

Then we repeated the act of training again.

As a result, I succeeded in getting my body accustomed to the magical load in a short period of time.

This training method was a sure thing.

It was a great success.

But in return, every time we drank the undiluted solution of the magic restorative, Cross and I would faint in agony.

Needless to say, when we couldn't drink it properly because it tasted so bad, Fara made us drink it mercilessly with a smile on her face.

Cross, seeing Fara like that, whispered to me while fighting.

"Master Rid. Fara-sama is the kind of person who should never be made seriously angry."

'Haha ...... I see. I'll be careful."

This is how I began to do "special strengthening training" with Cross on a daily basis.
