"No... stop it..."
"Hehe, don't fight it so hard. So how about it—check out what I've got. It's about to come say hello inside you."
"Why would you do something like this..."
"Your brother screwed up big time, and it's been decided that you're getting disposed of along with him. Nobody's ever wanted to bed a sickly girl like you, right? I'll send you to heaven before you die."
"Dropkick!!"
"Puh!"
The man who had been undressing to lay his hands on the woman was suddenly kicked from the side and sent flying, knocked unconscious.
The one who delivered the kick was Alan.
Nathan rushed to Sara's side.
"Are you okay, Sara?!"
"Brother...!"
At the Count's mansion that employed Nathan,
after the Martial God Festival, where things had gone differently from the arrangements the nobles had made,
shamefully
defeated, Nathan had brought great disgrace upon the nobles, who decided to dispose of both him and Sara.
Upon hearing of this, the noble's aide attempted to lay his hands on Sara.
No—he had wanted to all along, but had been forbidden, as bedding a frail girl like Sara might well kill her.
"Special move—"
"Harem Send-off!!"
"It's the other guy who's gonna die!"
Alan transported the unconscious fellow — still with his lower half completely exposed — straight to the rear palace of the royal castle via teleportation magic.
"Now then, we have no more business here."
And so, the three of them reappeared in the vast garden of the Geese dukedom.
◇◇◇
"Is this... the legendary teleportation magic...?"
"Nathan, adventurers don't pry into each other's business. I'm a Silver-rank adventurer as well."
"My apologies."
Right then, a squad of patrol soldiers from inside the estate came trotting over.
Before Alan knew it, he was surrounded by gruff-looking soldiers, and Sara — still being carried in a princess hold by Nathan — went deathly pale.
One soldier stepped forward from the group and addressed him.
"Would you happen to be Lord Alan?"
Oh, now that's what you call top-notch soldiers — properly trained and everything.
"Yes, that's right. I had an urgent errand and had to ignore quite a few things on the way here, so sorry for the sudden visit. Is Ward around?"
The very moment he said those words, a butler materialized out of nowhere.
"Indeed he is. You lot, back to your posts."
"Yes, sir!"
And just like that, the soldiers swiftly returned to their positions.
"Lord Alan, that man is Nathan, employed under the Count Dahren household, correct?"
"That's right. He was being tortured for supposedly disgracing the count's name, so I rescued him and the others all at once. Oh, and if you don't mind, could I borrow a bed? Sara could use some rest."
"Certainly. Please, right this way."
"Much appreciated."
And so, I borrowed a room and had Sara lie down.
"Well then, let's get her healed up in a jiffy."
Nathan stared at me with an expression of utter disbelief.
"Wait. They said my sister can't be cured—even an elixir would only buy time at best."
"Miracle of Life,[Sacred Magic]Resurrection!"
A blinding light erupted from within the duke's estate room.
◇◇◇
"Sara will be fine now."
Her complexion had improved, and she slept soundly. I verified with[Divine Eye], and sure enough, she was completely healed.
"That light just now—that was Resurrection? The miracle of revival?"
The master of the estate, Duke Gies, entered the room as he spoke.
Upon seeing him, Nathan immediately dropped to one knee.
I simply gave a slight bow.
"No need for formalities, relax. Why use Resurrection? If the Church found out, it would be rather troublesome, even for me."
