The Small Sage Will Try Her Best In The Different World From Lv.1!

Chapter 95 Versus Golem

“Yuuri, come here. That way, the golem won’t come after you.”

Eh, really?

If so, I should believe in Ar-niisama’s words and withdraw from here.

“Noir, lead the golem to the walls!”

“Migyaa!”

Since the golem’s movement was slow, as long as it could be led to the other side of the crevice, it shouldn’t be able to catch up with me so soon.

As expected, the golem wasn’t able to change its direction so suddenly, so we were able to run towards the other side of the crevice by making use of it.

What awaited us was what appeared to be a gentle downhill part of the marble quarry.

We were supposed to be down inside the dry well, so why was it a slope that descended down even further? How did it even work, I wonder?

Could it be that the dry well was located halfway up the mountain, so despite going down through it, we were still able to see the sky after going to the opposite side of the crevice? Perhaps that was the case.

“Ar-niisama!”

I threw myself to Ar-niisama who was waiting for me with both of his hands open.

“I knew you’d definitely come!”

“I’m glad you’re alright.”

I looked up at Ar-niisama who was patting my head and laughed. I felt really relieved upon looking at his gentle aqua eyes.

“Are Maa-kun and the others fine?”

“If you’re asking about the children who fled, they’ve been taken into protection just now. Incidentally, the attacking soldiers were all tied up by Karin’s thorny vines.”

“What about Purun?”

“Purun managed to guide us properly here. Just as I was about to head towards the direction of the dried well, but then Frank suddenly got a puffball delivered to him, so we headed here. The children were now protected inside Karin’s wooden dome, so it should be safe.”

The wooden dome that Karin-san made using the power of words was something that only allowed them to defend from within it, but it was considered an extreme secret technique that could nullify any kind of attacks.

“Is that so? Thank goodness…”

I looked around after feeling slightly relieved, and I saw an unfamiliar old man next to Frank-san. He had the appearance of a priest, so… Ah, I wonder if that person was Priest Rou?

More importantly, what about the golem?

When I looked at the place where the crevice was, it was located at the foot of the mountain, and there was the sound of the golem hitting the walls.

Certainly with how big the golem was, as long as the wall wasn’t broken, it wouldn’t be able to get out of that place. Looking from here, the wall seemed to be a marble wall, but the inner side of it was blended with magical crystals, so as expected, I guess it would be impossible to destroy it, even if it was a golem.

Yes. It’d be safe, then.

Then, I felt the tension leaving my body and—

“…Odd. As long as it’s within the barrier, the golem shouldn’t be able to move.”

The person that I guessed to be Priest Rou said as he wrinkled his eyebrows.

“What does it mean, Gramps? As long as we manage to run away here, it would be safe, wouldn’t it?”

In response to Frank-san who said that with a relaxed tone, Priest Rou let out a big sigh, “Haa…”

“You have a sharp tongue as always, huh…? But anyway, this isn’t the time to talk about something like that. It seemed that the golem was—according to the legend—the creation of the magician who was said to have built this town, in exchange for a guard. I have been trying to find where it was, and to think that it’d be hidden in such a place…”

“Gramps, could it be that you deliberately became a priest in such a remote place in order to unearth that golem?”

“I’ve always told you, Frank. A man needs this kind of ‘romance’ in his life.”

…Yup. He was unmistakably Priest Rou, Frank-san’s teacher.

After all, when Amanda-san asked Frank-san why he had become a priest, he laughed and answered with his favourite phrase, “Isn’t it cool to be able to quickly heal yourself and the others during a pinch? It’s a man’s ‘romance’, get it?”

“According to that legend, you see, although it was good that the Earth magician created the golem, the golem had to exert all its power just in order to fight a single slime. Since the magician had worked hard in order to create this town, it wouldn’t be good to have the golem to damage it right after the creation. Eventually, the golem was sealed inside the barrier, or so the legend goes.”

“…Wait, Gramps. Then, isn’t it a little bit weird? If it was sealed, then it shouldn’t have been able to move again so quickly, or else it would be not good, right?”

“Hmm. Golems have a disposition to start moving after detecting an enemy, so I think it’s most likely awakened in response to the Dark Panther, but… It’s still able to move despite being away from the barrier, that’s odd… This is bad. Could it be that the barrier’s been destroyed? But I don’t think it’s even possible to give enough shock to destroy the barrier that’s been created by a legendary magician.”

Hearing those words, Frank-san and the others looked at me simultaneously.

Even Ar-niisama who was still hugging me was staring at me.

“E…ehe.”

As long as I smiled, it would be able to help me dodge this… obviously not.

“Uhm, in order to create a path of our escape, I thought that I had to enlarge the crevice slightly, so I ended up using quite big of a magic.”

“A largish magic… That, could it be…”

Amanda-san put her hand on her forehead as she looked up at the sky.

At the same time, a strange noise that was similar to a creak resounded from the mountain’s surface.

When I slowly turned around, there was already a big crack on the crevice through which we had escaped.

C-could it be…?

“Ar-niisama! Please form a party now!”

I took Ar-niisama’s hand, then I hurriedly formed a party together with Amanda-san and Frank-san as well.
