Reunion In A Foreign Country
“Wooー! Amazing, amazingg! The outside sure is amazing huh, Onii-chan!”
The Beastfolk children hear my story and hop around excitedly. I end up unconsciously smiling at the sight of that. I’ve been living amidst waves of slaughters recently, and the only thing that heals my heart is the flirting with Mylene and the others after all.
My heart gets healed as I look at these children who don’t know about the outside. A completely untainted and innocent smile. Perhaps it’s because I finished part one of my revenge, it seems I became less like before.
After talking to the Beastfolk children for a while, it was already sunset before I realised. I thought I talked for quite a bit, but to think that it’s already this time before I know it.
Just as I thought that it’s about time to send the children back
“Oh, there’s an adorable cat Beastfolk over there. To think that there was somebody like that!”
, a Beastfolk man points at Tierra. It’s probably a monkey Beastfolk from the looks of it. He has round ears attached to where our human ears belong.
Followed behind him were six Beastfolks that I guess are his followers. As I’m looking at those Beastfolks, one of the children
“Ah, it’s the Prince-sama”
, points at the wolf Beastfolk behind the monkey Beastfolk and says. Hmm, he’s the Prince of this country huh. He came up in the conversation with the children; apparently, there are also others like us that smell different, and it is the Prince of this country. He is, an individual who went outside once before.
“Oi, you people, offer up that cat Beastfolk woman. Modra-sama demands!”
The Beastfolk men say something like that to us as soon as they come before our eyes. Mars stands in front, shielding Tierra. Well, there’s no way I’ll hand her over after all.
“Unfortunately, I won’t hand her over. If you don’t quickly leave, you’re going to be in for a painful lesson, you know?”
I lined up beside Mars as well and looked at the man called Modra, but Modra stood unmoving with a smile. The other Beastfolks, the Prince and the bear Beastfolk, the two of them don’t move, but the Beastfolks besides them approach us.
To keep them in check, I guess I’ll blow two people away. I, who thought that, fire a black-coloured sphere towards the Beastfolks that approach. It’s the Magic called Shadow Ball that I learned at the beginning of Dark Sorcery.
The sphere I fired, struck the Beastfolks that head over……not and got reflected. I absorb the sphere that heads towards me with darkness and erase it but……to think that it got reflected so easily.
And then, after seeing that I attacked, the Beastfolks close in on us with their weapons drawn. Mars immediately uses his Dark Knight’s occupation, summons a set of armour and a sword, and catches the sword that was swung down.
At the same time, there’s a sensation that everything before my eyes is distorting. Tierra also clutched her head in pain, and when it came to the children, they ended up crying. A sweet scent is wafting in the vicinity, and it’s disgusting.
“Guoh!”
Perhaps it struck Mars as well, Mars got targetted right when his legs got wobbly and got blown away. While the Beastfolk children and we are in pain, Modra and company, the Beastfolk men, move closer with a carefree expression.
It’s probably because of this sweet scent, that my vision is distorting. Besides, the barrier that reflected my Magic is also a pain. Furthermore, this feeling; that one called Modra is probably a man who possesses God’s fragment.
The thing that’s strange is, the fact that the one who’s using the Scent Magic is not Modra, but somebody else. I can’t imagine somebody who doesn’t possess God’s fragment, being able to cast Magic on everybody who’s in this country.
Furthermore, the Magic that reflected my Magic as well. It may be the least powerful, but even though I’d placed an extinguishing effect so that it doesn’t get reflected back, it ended up being reflected back.
……it’s true that I let my guard down. I’ve got to reflect on that as well huh. I guess I shall fire one a bit seriously. The moment I thought that and poured my Magic Power in, from the sky, clumps of ridiculous Magic Power rain down on us.
I deploy a dome of darkness above our heads, covering Mars, Tierra, and the children. Morda and company, they deployed the technique that reflected my Magic in the sky. And then, the impact fell above our heads.
“Har-, Hardt-sama! Wha-, what is this!?”
“I don’t know, but get down!”
I pour Magic Power into the dome of darkness, absorb the things that fall from the sky, and erase them. When I got rid of the dome after the impact from the sky settled down, the surrounding had turned into a scorched field. Luckily, we are at the park, and it looks like there are no casualties.
And then, a Dragon flew over in the sky. It’s a Dragon that shines silver. It’s visible from here that it’s carrying a few people on its back.
The Dragon descends gracefully, and the people who rode on the Dragon’s back subsequently come into sight following its descent. Looking at that sight, I ended up opening my eyes widely. Who would’ve thought, we would be able to encounter so quickly.
Riding on the Dragon’s back were……Stella and Lig after all. I, who saw the figures of the two of them, was laughing before I realised.
