Chapter 207 – Invade the Witch's Company!

“So wе’rе оutsidе, but hоw do you рlаn to investigаte, Spiсе?”

“Lеt’s just brеаk in!”

“Wоw!”

Windy’s eуes widenеd аt Spiсе’s dесisivе ideа.

“I think it’s a wоnderful ideа… but is thаt rеаlly okаy?”

“If it’s уou guys, evеn if уou’re discovеrеd, you can neutrаlizе them without bloodshed, right? А fоrceful rеcоnnаissаnсe is the fastest wаy.”

‘Go gо, Маster! Chаrging intо еnemy tеrritory tо gather intel is a wаrriоr’s true cаlling~!’

‘Flоta, isn’t thе Mastеr a Witch?’

‘Well, with mе arоund, stеalth operatiоns beсоmе a lоt easiеr, у’knоw. The рroblеm is…’

‘It’s thе mаgiсаl traрs lаid bу the Witсh оf Colors, isn’t it?’

‘What’s with you guys, are you all chickening out except Flota!? I’m going! Windy, get ready!’

The Grimoires started making a ruckus.

This was the flow of the other three books being overridden by the highly motivated Flota and Snow White!

Thus, Spice and the others decided to carry out an infiltration operation.

Now then, Rehnenbogen Corporation is a mail-order company that delivers products all over Austria.

Trucks are constantly coming and going, so getting inside itself should be easy.

But entering from the front seems like it would be monitored, so let’s go from the back here.

“Alright then, let’s Metamorphose in the shadows without emitting light.”

With a soft plop, he transforms into Mind Spice.

It’s the form most suited for infiltration work.

Windy is as usual.

“I want a different form too! Hey, Snow White~!”

‘What a hopeless child. I’ll think of something when we get back to Kansas. How about forms specialized for wind and ice respectively?’

“Yay!”

How nice.

Watching the interaction between the one and the book with warm eyes, Spice thinks about their next moves from here.

Streaming is absolutely out of the question.

This operation involves infiltrating a company without proper procedures, which is not good behavior.

But!

This isn’t being done with the intent to infiltrate the company; we’ll resolve it with the premise that we were chasing the Witch and before we knew it, we were at the company!

“Go go go.”

“From here on, we talk in low voices, right?”

“We can’t let ourselves be known. Let’s remove this back door window and get in. Oh, security is active—”

‘Marinna’s turn, isn’t it? I’ll lend my power—’

What we prepare here is mineral water, the kind with a bit of salt in it.

Sprinkling this a little on the window, the water begins to move.

It infiltrates through the tiny gaps, travels along them to the alarm device connected to the window… and accesses it!

Temporarily, the system monitoring this window is paralyzed.

After that, we just use the water to open the window from the inside.

“It’s not completely sealed, huh?”

‘It is sealed, but we can apply pressure with water to bend the packing and infiltrate. If it’s sealed with cheap methods, it’s actually easier to get in.’

What a terrifying Grimoire, Marinna!

With the back window now open, Spice and Windy slip inside.

Even if the window is small, for the two in their little girl forms, it’s no problem at all.

Plus, they can fly, so even high windows aren’t an issue!

While temporarily knocking out the consciousness of any employees they encounter with a Shock…

The two land inside the company!

“It’s a sneak mission. Perfectly suited, there are cardboard boxes placed all over.”

“As expected of a mail-order company… Which means…?”

The next moment!

Two cardboard boxes were moving up the stairs!

It was Spice and Windy wearing cardboard boxes.

“Perfect!”

“This blends right into the scenery! Truly ninja-like!”

Both Spice and Windy are pumped up.

Note: Mentaris, stuck to Spice’s back, is constantly on guard against attacks from the Witch of Colors.

‘Here and there, Alarm Magic is set up, y’know. We’ll have Marinna fool the devices, and I’ll deceive and slip through the magic… It’s really good we can divide our specialized fields, y’know. The Grimoire of Colors is versatile, so it can do various things by itself, y’know.’

‘But that guy has strong mood swings. His follow-through is sloppy in places.’

We get to hear a lot about the Grimoire of Colors.

The Grimoires have lived a long time, and their memories are all mixed up, so without a trigger like this, pinpoint information doesn’t come out.

When they’re at home, they only talk about things like recent games.

“Whoa! We’re about to pass an employee!”

Quickly pretending to be just cardboard boxes, Spice and Windy.

The employee tried to pass by, trot trot,

“Huh? Were there cardboard boxes here…?”

and approached.

As expected, it’s different from a game—!

The moment the employee’s hand touched the cardboard box, a Shock in the minimal range from there!

“Ah-fuh.”

The employee dropped to one knee.

‘As expected of the Master. At this extremely small scale, with this minimal Magic Power Shock, it won’t be caught by Mana Perception, y’know. In other words, y’know, even in personal contact, a small amount of Magic Power can be generated, y’know, but this is a method of disguising it as that to launch an attack, y’know.’

“The Grimoire of the Mind is truly perfect for infiltration work, it’s laughable.”

And so, passing through several floors…

“It’s the office floor!”

‘Hmm, the scent of Magic Power has become quite strong, y’know. This is a level I can tell even without using Mana Perception, y’know. The Colors one, she’s doing something, y’know—’

So we’re breaking into the enemy’s stronghold.

But we don’t have information on the opponent, and is it okay to rush into battle?
