[Farnese point of view]

“So …… what’s going on with Grundy and the other?”

I was in my dorm room, listening to the reports of the beast slaves.

I put a wiretap spell on Alicia and Grundy’s room.

There was no way in hell I was going to lose, but I had to have an insurance policy just in case.

“It seems that they are going to dive in the dungeon under the academy.”

“Eh? There is a dungeon in the basement of this institute ……?”

I was surprised that there was a dungeon in the basement of the institute.

(I wonder how Grundy knows such a thing ……)

I’m very curious – but Grundy seems to be convinced.

“The boss of the dungeon is the Undead King. And it seems he needs a lot of holy water to defeat the Undead King.”

“How does he know the boss of a dungeon he’s never dived ……?”

More and more, I don’t understand Grundy.

Where on earth did he get that information ……

Yes. It’s as if he’s known everything from the beginning.

“……….Well, that’s okay. Anyway, whatever Grundy’s doing, we’re going to get in his way. Put an eye on him and buy up all the holy water in King’s town.”

“Yes, ma’am……”

The beast slave disappeared.

A good beastman slave that my father bought for me.

I don’t remember his real name, but I call him “Tim.”

He has black dog ears and sharp yellow eyes.

If I order him to do something, he won’t hesitate to kill anyone.

“Phew… All we need to do now is seize the scene of Grundy’s dungeon dive and have the beast slave attack him. ……”

According to the beast slave, the entrance to the dungeon is under the statue of the saint in the central auditorium of the academy.

(Maybe we should set a trap ……)

A summoning magic trap might be a good idea.

When Grundy comes to the entrance of the dungeon, an A-rank monster will be summoned.

“Now I can slaughter Grundy. ……”

Grundy will be cornered and will beg for my forgiveness.

So I will make him lick my feet carefully like a dog and make him my slave.

“Grundy …… wait for me. I’ll make you my dog. ……!”

[Sid’s point of view]

“Thanks …… Hulk. Here’s a little something for you.”

We are in the woods near the institute.

I give Tim – whose real name is Hulk – a silver coin.

“Grundy sama, …… you’re the only one who calls me by my real name.”

“Yeah. Names are important to humans.”

When beastmen are degraded into slaves, they are deprived of their names.

In Tim’s case, he was deprived of his real name, “Hulk”.

“…. Are you sure you want to do this? Even if you betrayed Farnese?”

“Yeah. That trashy woman – excuse me. I cannot serve such an arrogant master.”

“Well, ……. Thank you for your cooperation.”

Hulk had the “false information” passed on to Farnese.

In fact, the dungeon is not in the basement of the academy.

It is located in the Black Forest near the institute.

In other words, Farnese’s trap had come up empty.

“I pledge my allegiance to Grundy-sama.”

Hulk bowed deeply to me, and took the courtesy of a retainer.

“Thank you. I’ll be counting on you in the future.”

“Yesr! See you later!”

Hulk disappeared……

Hulk is a beast slave of Farnese, and is used by Farnese like a rag.

In fact, in the original setting, the Hulk was a proud beastman nobleman.

However, he was defeated in a war with the human race and fell into the status of a slave.

Therefore, he resented the human aristocrats who enslaved the beastmen.

“Amazing …… how you managed to get Hulk-san on your side. ……”

Alicia, who had been hiding, appeared.

“Because I got his name back.”

Hulk had been given an oblivion spell by Farnese, and his true name had been taken from him.

For the beastmen, names are supposed to be given by the gods.

It is the most cherished thing.

By erasing his true name from his memory, in other words, Farnese had deprived Hulk of the most important thing.

So, I gave him back what was most precious to him.

I stayed close to Farnese, to get the Hulk on my side ……

(I just gave him his real name.)

“But …… how did Sid san know Hulk san’s name?”

Because I played the original, of course.

But …… indeed, I can’t tell you the truth.

(How can I fool her……?)

“I saw a sword.”

“A sword, ……?”

Hulk had a sword on his waist.

“Yes. I found [Hulk] written in beastman language on the sheath of the sword, so I thought …… maybe his real name is Hulk. Hulk is a very beastman-like name.”

“You’re too good, Sid san. …… to see such a small thing! You’re too observant ……!”

“Hahaha ……”

I convinced Hulk that I had magically detected the name.

The original story has a magic that does seeing through–Ilpas.

I told him that I had detected his name with that magic.

Of course, there is no effect to detect the name in the original work. ……

(It was quite suspicious, but I was glad to have him on my side anyway.)

“Looks like Farnese sama is buying up all the holy water. What should we do ……? Holy water is important to our operation.”

Alicia looked worried.

“It’ll be fine.”

“Eh……?”

Alicia rolls her eyes.

“I’ve got a plan–that one.”

I pointed to an empty box behind a tree – a recycling bin.

It’s a big green box.

“This is a recycle box, isn’t it, where two grimoires are fused together to create a new grimoire ……Ah! You don’t mean ?”

“That’s right. Using the recycle box, we create holy water.”

If Farnese is buying up all the holy water, we can make holy water.

“But I don’t know the combination to make …… holy water.”

“Don’t worry. I know how to do it.”

“Eh….? Sid san? You know that too…..?!”

“Yes. I used to play in the recycle box when I was a kid,…….”

The thing I told Alicia was a lie, of course.

The original story is that there are no hints as to the combination of magical tools.

Unless you google it on the internet, you will never know the correct combination.

I remember the combination because I used to make a lot of holy water in the recycle box in order to clear the game as fast as possible.

The holy water has the effect of preventing encounters with monsters weaker than you, so it was a necessary item for me as I wanted to finish the Otome game as quickly as possible.

“So, what combination of items produces holy water……?”

“Potion and antivenom.”

Both are available cheaply and in large quantities in the game’s store.

“This is where you make the holy water …..Ah! Sid san. Why don’t you put an anti-magic spell under the statue of the saint of the academy?”

“I see,……, that’s a good idea.”

Antimagic is magic that bounces back magic.

In short, it is like a magical version of “parry.”

If Farnese sets a powerful magic trap, it can double the power of the magic trap and reflect it back.

“If Farnese sama summons an A-ranked monster, you can use anti-magic ……”

“Would that summon an S-rank monster ……?’

No matter how strong Farnese’s magical power is, she cannot deal with S-rank monsters if they appear.

“If an S-rank monster suddenly appeared, the academy would be in chaos. The kingdom’s knight corps will be mobilized. And the responsibility for that – it will be on Farnese sama. If that happens, the Marquise of Hanstein will ……”

Alicia says smiling.

“It’s going to be a hell of a mess. …… Definitely.”

(Yeah. I don’t want to imagine ……)

Farnese will probably be ruined.

“Okay! Sid san! Let’s make lots of holy water♡”
