Symphony for the Insect Princess

"……Why?"

Aisia took a deep breath and said, "Because... the Demon Scar sample is in your hands now, right? Ever since I've been with you, this great secret treasure has been 'restless' and sensing something."

““…………””

Sedraon and Charlotte looked at each other.

At that moment, Sedroon obviously had the intention to kill, but Charlotte stopped him with her eyes.

The atmosphere became tense. None of Sedraon, Charlotte, or Aisia trusted each other, and Qimila was embarrassed, not knowing what to do.

"I know. You're worried I'll seize the magic scar sample, right? But don't get me wrong. I've already said I'm not interested in great secret treasures... Well, if you can't identify it, there's no point in taking it, so please do as you please."

As if to prove that she had no ill intentions, Aisia took off the space ring and placed it on the ground, and then rolled the unidentified great treasure from the ground to the feet of Sedroon and Charlotte.

Charlotte reflexively bent down to pick it up.

Sedroang just looked down and didn't reach out his hand.

Realizing that something was wrong with Sedroon's attitude, Charlotte withdrew her hand.

"..."

"..."

"..."

The great secret treasure was right in front of them, but none of the three picked it up.

"…Is there anything wrong? Miss Cedroon? Ms. Charlotte?"

"I want to ask you..."

Sedroon gently kicked the great treasure with the tip of his shoe.

"Damn it, did you put poison on it?"

"..."

"Silence means that I'm right~ Also, that space ring you put on the ground is fake too, right? You replaced it so quickly. Why don't you go perform on the streets?" Setroon teased, but there was a cold glint in his eyes.

"Fortunately, I didn't touch it... Let me guess, you did this to prevent us from discovering that this is a real secret treasure and taking it away, and secondly, to restrain us by poisoning it, right?" Charlotte was still frightened and became even more cautious.

"..."

"...Hey, hey, don't look at me like that. I don't blame you. If you were to be so foolish as to give it to me, it would actually lower my opinion of you. Pfft~"

Sedroon smiled and took out the magic scar sample from Glory and approached the great secret treasure. His movements were so fast that he didn't even give everyone time to prepare themselves mentally.

……

“…Ah, it’s fake.”

Tch, boring—Sedron took back the magic scar sample, Charlotte breathed a sigh of relief, and Aisia's shoulders also relaxed.

And Qimila——

"Have you forgotten something? Bugs, bugs!"

"You're just some ants—"

“No, no! There’s a strange humanoid creature approaching—Aaaaaaaaaaah!!!”

boom! ! ! !

The temporary barrier was suddenly shattered.

Three insect men fell from the sky without any warning!

------------------

Gurgle…Gurgle…Gurgle…

In the darkness, Stella suddenly regained consciousness.

My brain felt a little hazy, my limbs were out of control and I couldn't move them, and breathing was difficult.

what happened?

Stella recalled it for a moment and immediately remembered it.

I... was attacked.

When the tower was bombarding Ailian's people with astrological magic, the White-Haired Girl approached and was about to fight to the death, but...

"worm……"

Yes, I remember now! She'd thought she'd be fighting Sedroon, but the floor suddenly crumbled and that disgusting worm emerged! The last thing she could recall was the worm opening its disgusting mouthparts and lunging at her!

"I'm not dead. I...wait, where is this?"

Breathing is still difficult because the oxygen here is very thin. What fills the nose and mouth is a strange smell, like the smell of rotten meat diluted to the extreme. Although it is not disgusting, it is really unpleasant.

The numbness in her body gradually disappeared and her senses gradually returned. She tried to open her eyes but could only see darkness. Her body seemed to be tightly wrapped in something, soft and damp, but very flexible, as if... still jumping?

"!?"

He tried to move his body, but his limbs were tightly bound. He wanted to use magic, but found that the flow of magic power was extremely sluggish, as if someone had put a restriction that could seal the magic power!

At this time-

Gurgle, gurgle, gurgle, gurgle…

A force pushed her forward, and she felt like she was sliding in a narrow passage, which was getting tighter and tighter. Just when she thought she was going to be crushed -

puff!

Her body felt lighter and the feeling of suffocation disappeared. The next moment, she fell heavily to the ground, grimacing in pain.

“What the hell… Eeeeeee!?”

When she opened her eyes again, she finally saw what she came out of.

It's a worm.

Giant worm.

It seemed as if the eyes were hollow and lifeless, just staring at her.

The one that swallowed her.

During this period of unknown length of time, she was always in the worm's belly.

A strong feeling of nausea surged into her throat, and just as she was about to vomit, a strong hand suddenly grabbed her throat, forcibly stopping her from vomiting.

"Ugh—cough cough cough!"

In the dim light, she saw the owner of the hand - a man whose age was difficult to judge, wearing a butler's uniform, with a very handsome appearance. His blue eyes reflected the light from the magical light source, which made her shudder.

"Stella Gondel?"

The young man asked, and Stella nodded reflexively under the strange feeling of oppression.

The young man smiled and said to someone hidden in the shadows, "Looks like we caught the right guy."

"I won't make stupid mistakes."

It was a female voice that answered him. The owner of the voice walked slowly out from the shadows. The moment Stella saw her, her eyes widened.

She had an impression of this person! Such beauty, once seen, it would be hard to forget!

She is one of the people in the City Lord's Mansion——

"Please be quiet, Miss Stella."

The girl slowly approached. Although she was such a beautiful girl, Stella had the illusion that she was cornered by some ferocious monster... or maybe it wasn't an illusion.

"You...you are a maid in the City Lord's Mansion? What...do you want to do!?"

Chapter 95 Nellis & Food Show

"You...you are a maid in the City Lord's Mansion? What...do you want to do!?"

Stella jumped up, but Qianye—no, it would be more appropriate to call him Pierce Corey—immediately pinned her down. Even such a crude act was performed very elegantly by him. This should also be a kind of violent aesthetics.

"Woo...Woo..."

Seeing her whimpering and twisting her body, I knew she was trying hard to mobilize her magic power, but unfortunately, I had placed a few sealing worms in this worm beforehand - a kind of parasite that can seal magic power. Once parasitized by them, even a magician or a war spirit will be no different from an ordinary person.

"You bastard! Let me go!"

She couldn't move her body and couldn't use magic, but she didn't say anything disturbing. Pierce gave me a questioning look, and I shook my head, indicating that I could do it.

(——A little lesson)

“——Ugh!!!!!!!!”

Stella screamed and twisted her body in pain, her expression distorted to the extreme. When she began to roll her eyes, I gave the order to stop, so that the worms in her body would stop being restless.

"Please cooperate, Miss Stella. There is no need for us to resort to unnecessary violence."

"..."

She nodded tremblingly, and seemed to be obedient.

I thought so, but——

"You...you...do you know who I am?"

she said so.

"I know. He's the adjutant of the Babel Special Investigation Team, a magician specializing in astrological magic."

"..."

"Full name is Stella Gondel."

“…You know!”

She looked slightly relieved.

"I know that what I said might disgust you, but since you know my identity, you must know the consequences of killing me, right? If you want to get away with it then, you absolutely cannot—"

"Pierce."

"Yes, ma'am."

Deng!

A kick with just the right amount of force landed on her chin, causing her to spit out a small amount of blood. This was probably because the inside of her mouth was broken, and thanks to this she immediately calmed down.

"Cough...cough..."

"I'm sorry we resorted to violence, but I believe you can understand. We certainly know your background, and it's precisely because of that that we brought you here."

"...?"

Seeing her puzzled expression, I stopped talking. Talking too much is definitely not a good habit. The more you talk, the more time you waste and the easier it is to be exposed. It is best to say nothing and just act directly.

In order to achieve the initial stage of the plan, I deliberately investigated the personnel composition of the special investigation team of the Tower of Babel, and deliberately chose the city of Kasol as the stage. Naturally, the effort spent on it was not small, so I absolutely did not want to make any mistakes.

"Come, Miss Stella."

I winked at Pierce, and he bent down gracefully—then forcibly lifted Stella's head and pried her mouth open.

I also opened the insect compartment, and a tentacle stretched out from the vortex formed by the long hair behind my head and handed it to me.

Her eyes immediately widened, filled with fear and confusion. She looked at me and then at what I was holding.

So I gave instructions.

"Eat it."

“…………Ah…ah?”

"Please, eat it."

As I said that, I stuffed something into her mouth. Her mouth was forced open and her head was fixed, so she couldn't dodge. She could only keep making incoherent screams, trying desperately to close her mouth and push her tongue out.

...really uncooperative.

"Let me put it this way, Miss Stella. Which would you choose: eating it obediently or having your stomach ripped open and then forced back in?"
