Reincarnation: Only I Can Play The Villain

After almost a whole day's journey on the carriage,

As late night fell, the group finally arrived at the mining city.

Since there was no rest on the road, everyone except Chu Mu was extremely exhausted.

However, it's time to take a rest now.

"Is this the legendary 'Mining City'? It's simply a ghost town."

Linsilei looked around and made a very appropriate conclusion.

“After all, the mine has been abandoned for decades, and the previous residents should have evacuated long ago.

"For 'humans', this is indeed not a suitable place to live, but..."

Claire narrowed her eyes and stared at the ruins of the city covered with shadows.

In the deserted streets and alleys, white "will-o'-the-wisps" are wandering everywhere.

These "will-o'-the-wisps" are actually a relatively common type of low-level elves.

It is easy to encounter them in uninhabited forests and wild areas, just like wild birds or hares.

On the other side of the ruins of the city, a silent mountain range stands.

The mountain peak that looks like a silent giant in the dark night is the "Gade Mine".

In the past, this place was the largest elven ore producing area in the empire.

After squeezing out the last bit of value, the mine was abandoned.

The strategic-level military elves sealed during the "653" era of the old emperor sleep beneath this mine.

"...So, can you let go?"

Claire turned her head and stared at Her Royal Highness the Princess who hugged Chu tightly with an unkind expression.

"No, I have to protect Chu Mu, I can't leave him~"

Not only did Fiana not let go, she hugged Chu Mu's arm tighter.

"You are the one being protected, right? Besides, as an elf envoy, where is your contracted elf?"

While summoning Scarlet in the form of a fire cat, Claire looked at the purple-haired girl suspiciously.

"In such a dangerous environment, would it be better to summon the elves first?"

"this……………"

Fianna was speechless for the rare moment. She bit her lip lightly and avoided Claire's sight.

"It's not that time yet! The royal contracted elves are different from your kittens and cannot be summoned casually!"

"W-What did you say?!"

Just before the mission started to be explored, the team members began to fight among themselves.

Suddenly, there was a rapid and violent vibration on the soles of everyone's feet.

The shaking sensation, as if the world was turning upside down, immediately silenced the noisy girls in surprise.

....Is it an earthquake?”

"It seems there is no time left for us to rest, the mission needs to be carried out immediately.

Chu Mu stretched out his hand and rubbed Fianna and Claire's heads respectively, indicating that they would "fight" for the time being.

Then, he snapped his fingers and used his "divine power" to condense a small fireball, illuminating the surrounding area.

This is the most basic elf magic, similar to a "sleight of hand" trick.

In the ruins of the city, a group of people quickly discovered their destination based on the map——

At the end of the main road that runs through the city center is the entrance to the mine.

A huge temple stands in front of the mine, which looks quite tall and majestic from the outside.

However, it is quite miserable inside——

"Isn't this too much?"

Her Royal Highness the Princess, who had received training from "Elven Princess" and was familiar with various ritual knowledge, couldn't help but exclaimed.

The statues inside the temple were severely damaged, causing all the elven ores on the stones to be removed.

The temple hall, which was originally used to please the elves, was filled with garbage and scraps.

It looks like a garbage dump, seriously tarnishing the sanctity of the temple.

"It has been about twenty years since the city was abandoned, so it is not surprising that this situation would occur.

Chu Mu looked at the environment inside the temple and said lightly.

Although it is called a "temple", it actually enshrines the elves in the mines.

People offer sacrifices and perform kagura dances to please the spirits,

Avoid being disrupted by elves during the mining of ores.

So after the city was abandoned, the temple was also abandoned...

After all, this temple has no real "believers" and no "gods" to believe in.

"Fiana, did you find anything?"

"Well...there is indeed something strange about it."

Her Royal Highness the Princess carefully walked to an open space,

There were some footprints and scratches scattered on the ground beside his feet.

"This temple has obviously been turned into ruins, but traces here indicate that several 'Kagura' rituals have been held here recently.

"ceremony?"

Linsilei also walked over, frowning and staring at the footprints on the ground.

It's a pity that as a noble lady, she really doesn't know much about sacrificial rituals.

So I didn't see any clues.

On the contrary, Fiana ignored the mess on the ground and sat down on her knees to analyze the clues carefully.

"This pace... although it has undergone slight changes, it should be a ceremony to release the seal.

"The ritual of contacting the seal..."

After hearing Fiana's explanation, Alice immediately clenched her fists.

"Once the strategic-level military elves are unblocked, nearby towns will inevitably turn into scorched earth!"

"We must quickly stop

"It's not that urgent."

Fianna stood up from the ground and patted the dust on her skirt.

"This temple is just a cover-up to hide the real seal."

"In a place as important as a mine, a luxurious temple is usually deliberately built on the ground to hide it from others."

"The real sealed temple is still hidden deeper..."

Hearing these words, everyone's eyes immediately turned to Yana.

But the latter shook his head helplessly and continued.

"But I don't know where the hidden 'main hall' is, so I can only find it slowly.

"That's not necessary."

Suddenly, Chu Mu, who had been observing the temple, interrupted.

"Ester seemed to have something to say.

He summoned the "Demon Exorcist Holy Sword" and then lifted the elf's magic suit.

The loli elf with long silver hair suddenly revealed her figure——

Thank God, this time she finally knew how to put on clothes when she came out.

If you still look like you are wearing only a pair of knee socks,

I'm afraid this time Chu Mu will face a crisis of image failure in the eyes of girls.

"Ester, you just told me...do you know where the 'main hall' where the seal is located?"

Facing the girls' eyes, Esther nodded slightly.

"Yes I know."

"It was a long, long time ago before there were mines here, probably hundreds of years ago.

"The mountain itself is a high temple dedicated to the elves."

"Before I was sealed in the sword, I often came here."

It turns out that Esther is the highest level elf of the "Demon God" level who was sealed hundreds of years ago.

It is also normal to be worshiped by humans on the holy mountain.

"Then, can you take us to the 'main hall'?"

"sure."

Esther raised her head and stared at Chu Mu, her eyes sparkling.

"Before that, please master give Esther a reward."

"Ah this......"

Chu Mu thought for a while, put her hand on the silver-haired Loli's head, and stroked it.

The Holy Sword Elf suddenly narrowed his eyes, and his body seemed to be light and about to fly.

"Hmm...Master......it feels so comfortable..."

Like a cat being stroked on the chin, Esther kept making slight noises.

Of course, ordinary head touching cannot achieve this effect like taking medicine.

While in physical contact, Chu Mu also slowly infused his own "divine power" into Esther's body.

For elves to walk in the human world, they need to consume a lot of "divine power" energy.

This is also the reason why Esther usually does not appear in human form.

The "divine power" provided by Chu Mu is a very powerful "tonic" for elves.

That's why Esther showed such an expression...

Although this is true, the girls who saw this scene still started whispering.

"I have always felt before that Chu Mu was too doting on Esther..."

"To use a popular vocabulary in the empire to describe this kind of behavior... it should be called 'lolicon', right?"

"Hmm...Does Chu Mu also like girls with small breasts?"

The last sigh of relief was, not surprisingly, coming from Claire.

Then, under Esther's gaze full of reluctance, Chu withdrew his palm.

"Okay, the reward time is over, take us to the 'main hall'."

"knew."

Although he still had some unfinished thoughts, the Holy Sword Elf still nodded.

Then, she turned into the "Demon Exorcist Holy Sword" again and floated out of thin air.

Seeing this scene, Chu Mu suddenly had an ominous premonition in her heart.

"Wait, you don't want to--"

Before he could finish speaking, Esther had already given his answer. 1.9 I saw her releasing a large amount of "divine power" very boldly, splashing a stormy sword energy towards the ground!

Under the impact of countless sharp swords, the floor of the temple was directly cut into rubble...

Rumble, rumble, rumble!

As expected, an empty secret space was revealed under the shattered floor.

A dark, deep and long narrow corridor appeared in everyone's sight.

However, during the falling process that was full of exclamations, Chu Mu seemed to notice something, and his expression became stern.

The next moment, blue flames swept from the depths of the corridor, as if they were about to freeze the entire space!

"This is... Elstein's Fire?!"

Feeling the biting chill coming from the flames, Claire's face changed slightly.

"Besides me, the only people who can use this kind of flame are..."

A few seconds later, a girl with long dark red hair and an appearance somewhat similar to Claire appeared from the corridor walking on the flames.

"The Elf Princess of Disaster", the girl who betrayed the Fire Elf King,

The main culprit that caused the empire to suffer a profound disaster.

Claire Elstein's sister - "Rubia Elstein", appeared in front of everyone. .
