Overgeared

Chapter 49

Grid and Euphemina hurriedly ran away from the knights. Thanks to Euphemina grasping the layout of the first and second floors of the dungeon, the two people didn’t have to wander and managed to reach the surface level.

Brilliant sunshine! Blue sky! A green lawn! Grid was excited by the bright and brilliant landscape that was unlike the dark dungeon where all sides were blocked.

“Hahahahat! We escaped the castle~”

The dungeon entrance that Grid and Euphemina escaped from was located between towers erected on the east-facing wall. The two of them were exiting the tower, and there was a lookout above them. In other words, there were concerns that the guards in the watchtowers would hear Grid’s loud voice.

“Be quiet, we are still in the middle of enemy territory.”

Euphemina tried to calm Grid down but he was so excited about escaping that he didn’t hear her.

“Kya! Look at this clean air. The humid air in the dungeon was so bad! I thought my lungs were rotting away. Air is important! I finally understand why city people are so excited about the air in the countryside!”

Grid made a fuss as he lay down on the lawn and rolled around. He was out of control.

Euphemina had a headache. Most of the soldiers were defeated but the power of the lord’s bodyguards still seemed intact. The bodyguards weren’t a match for knights, but their level and skills exceeded that of ordinary soldiers. Euphemina didn’t want to face them. In the worst case, they could tie up her feet until the knights arrived from underground.

“Hey Grid, we need to leave this place as secretly and quietly as possible, so be a bit more quiet…”

“Hah~~ the smell of the grass is so clear and refreshing! The nice scent of pine needles!”

“……”

Euphemina tiredly rubbed her temple, steadily reaching the limits of her patience.

“……”

In the end, Euphemina took action and approached Grid, who was sniffing the lawn, and grabbed his collar. Then she pushed her mouth towards Grid’s ears and yelled,

“You! Didn’t I tell you to be quiet? Don’t you have a brain? We are in the middle of enemy territory! We should be running away from this dangerous territory, so why are you making noise while rolling around!!! Yes?”

“Aaaagh!”

Grid felt like his eardrums had ruptured from the shock. The tearful Grid struggled to escape from Euphemina.

“You, don’t embarrass me anymore but acting like a fool. Don’t you want to leave this damn place? So do it properly. If you act so stupidly again, I really will kill you.”

Euphemina knew that the grade of Grid’s class was higher than hers. Grid wasn’t a weak person. Nevertheless, she couldn’t help becoming angry as she kept scrutinizing Grid.

Grid was really afraid that he would be killed by Euphemina when he suddenly turned his attention to one side. Then he gently spoke to Euphemina.

“There… are they enemies?”

An ominous feeling. Euphemina slowly turned in the direction that Grid pointed. Then she was frustrated. 16 bodyguards armed with full plate armor appeared in a systematic formation.

Chaeeeeeng!

Their 16 swords reflected in the sunlight, causing flashes throughout the castle.

Grid scowled and snapped at her. “Look what this angry girl did… You caused such a big fuss that the enemies emerged.”
