I had the Burning Knights head back to the Spirit World, and then I used

as a foothold to quickly leap up high into the air.

While maintaining a high altitude, I moved around in order to get a good grasp of the battlefield. Soon I arrived next to Kisara.

As I looked down, I spotted Helme first. She was standing on top of an ice building that seemed to combine a pyramid and palace. But why did she build something like a palace? Though it seems like she created it on top of a mountain of daruma corpses…

The palace itself had tiers in its center, and on top of the highest level stood a chair made out of ice. Helme was standing next to that chair while striking one of her weird poses.

Next to her was a daruma monster with its body immobilized by Helme's

, She had apparently captured that daruma. And now she was standing in a way that the daruma‘s butt was facing her way…

She's apparently checking whether those daruma monsters got butts in the first place. Well, I'll interpret that as her way of joking around…so is she trying to make the monster submit to me? I think I could turn it into my subordinate with

if it's got enough intelligence to warrant it.

Still, why did she create something like an ice palace? And is she telling me to sit on that huge chair on top?

Tearing my eyes off that structure, I looked for Rollo's Squad. They should have been wreaking havoc around here until just a little while ago…

Surveying the area, I saw that the right side of Gol's former prison had been turned into a big wasteland. Originally all sorts of fruit trees and other plants had grown there, but those had been brutally knocked over. It looked like a tornado or a swarm of bulldozers had passed through…

In addition, countless daruma corpses littered the ground. The places where those corpses were bunched together looked like mountains of straw. One of those corpse mountains had become higher than Gol's previous prison.

And on the right side of that, I spotted Rollo's Squad fighting. There were still quite a few daruma left.Several of the monsters surrounded Rollo's Squad from the front and back, facing off against Rollo who was chewing on meat.

The intelligent daruma used the claws of their multi-legs to cover for each other's gaps. I guess they were restraining Rollodeen. Or rather, they couldn't do much more than restrain her.

Although they were the ones attacking, they had now been cornered instead. But, without knowing any of that, Rollodeen tossed a thick chunk of daruma meat to Alray and Hueremy as if to provide them with snacks. Has she chosen the meat for its high nutritional value? It sure looks like she's quite particular about the food she gives the other two. Read this great series on the translator's site at infinite novel translations.

At that point, I telepathically told Saraten in my left hand, 『Saraten, it's your turn』

『Finally, huh!? Vessel! Let me give you a deep kiss later on!』

Of course I ignored her blathering. In the end she was just planning to suck my blood anyway.

And then I focused on
