Reincarnated as a Farmer Gamer: Rising to the Top with the Evolution of the Weakest Job that Only I Know About!? - 51.4
Lisa was touching all over my body to check for injuries.
Could you stop blushing and trying to press there at the end? Also, you shouldn’t press there, okay?
“Um, Lady Evans? Can you tell me about that day?”
“The special power used was called the ‘Witch Barrier,’ which only witches can use. I felt its presence within the royal capital, and since it wasn’t Lisa’s, I observed it a bit. I sensed Beryl’s presence inside, but I thought you wouldn’t need to worry. Then, while searching for the user, I happened to run into you.”
“I see…”
“Riesty is being held underground.”
“Riesty…?”
“Well, her code name might be Pain or something like that.”
“I see. So witches have names and code names.”
“Yes. Only other witches know the real names of witches.”
“Eh. Then, does that mean I’m actually amazing because I know Lady Evans’s and Lisa’s names?”
Then Lady Evans mischievously smiled and poked my forehead with her finger.
“Too bad. We haven’t told you our true names~”
“True names… but Lady Evans and Lisa are not known outside, so knowing the two names is the same, right?”
Lady Evans looked puzzled.
“Ahaha. Yes, that’s certainly true.”
So, witches have true names. Well, knowing them or not doesn’t change anything. Lady Evans is Lady Evans, Lisa is Lisa, and I am I.
“Pain? Riesty? Are they able to talk?”
“They can talk. Their powers are sealed, so they can only move their mouths now.”
There was a somewhat ominous tone, but for now, I followed Lady Evans’s guidance and went down the stairs to the underground from a different place than usual.
There, like the path to Lady Evans’s treasure house, there were countless doors lined up along a long corridor.
As usual, this scenery was terrifying, so it was helpful that Lisa held my hand.
We entered one of the doors, which was indistinguishable from the others.
In the pitch-black underground dungeon, there were many cells with iron bars.
No one was inside, but one cell contained a person: the witch Pain, also known as Riesty.
“Wow… is she still alive?”
“She is alive.”
The ceiling and back of the cell were shrouded in darkness, with countless chains stretching from it, piercing through her arms, hands, and back, and embedding into the ground.
To put it bluntly… it was like being impaled.
However, even though her body was pierced, it wasn’t physically penetrating due to some mysterious magic, so it didn’t feel unpleasant to look at since there were no visible wounds on her skin.
“Hello, Riesty.”
“Lady Evans!”
“If you keep yapping, I’ll punish you. Be quiet.”
“Oh…”
Her face turned pale and she fell silent.
What on earth happened here…
