Dispute In The Beastfolk Country
“……do you know each other? Furthermore, what ‘carrier pigeons'”
“……don’t tell me, you’re the one!!”
As I told them while laughing, Noel looked at the two and asked, but Lig, who realised what I said, held his swords aloft and approached me.
Those around try to stop him in a panic, but Lig is already before my eyes. And then
“Dieeeee!!!”
his shining sword swung down at me. If I remember correctly, Lig’s occupation was a Paladin, was it. His sword clad in a sacred power swung down diagonally from the left.
Because I allowed the sword to swing down at me without any reaction, he made a smile like he was looking down at me, but that’s unfortunately not it. Your attack is
“Wha-!?”
something I don’t need to move to block, sorry. Lig looks at his sword that stop, unable to swing down my left shoulder, in surprise.
It’s great and all that he started moving right away and swung over at me horizontally, trying to lob my head off, without freezing up, but it seems he doesn’t have any comprehension power. Lig’s sword comes to an abrupt stop again.
“Unfortunately, it looks like with how strong you are, you can’t hurt me huh, Lig”
“Da-……damn youuu!”
When I smile at him condescendingly, he gets furious exactly as I thought he would and swings his sword over me like crazy. I receive all of them without even moving a single step. Of course, without harm.
Perhaps they thought it’d be bad at this rate, the lightning-clad man and Noel readied their swords and came over respectively. They swing their swords down at me from both sides respectively, and I create shortswords around me and receive them. I can’t actually receive them with my body after all.
“Arnold-san, now while there’s time!!”
“Aah!”
And then, simultaneously as Noel approaches even closer, the lightning-clad man called Arnold grabs Lig and backs off.
“Haaa!”
“Haha, I’ve really got to be cautious of you huh. Since it seems you possess the same power as me”
I release the shortswords in Noel’s every direction while backing off. Noel has a grasp of all of them and either repels or dodges the approaching shortswords while moving dancingly and closes in on me as it is.
Noel, who nimbly slipped through all the shortswords and drew in all the way before my eyes, aimed for my face and thrust his Holy Sword over at me. I turn my face away and dodge it but……hott!? There’s stinging heat with it just being beside my face though!
I move away from Noel in a panic and simultaneously create even more shortswords, making it so that he can’t get close. I touched my cheek that felt hot, and I actually got an inflamed wound.
I wonder, is this because of the shitty Goddess’ power that’s manifested from the Holy Sword. It’s definitely been reinforced to be used on me huh. Although it’s probably a total coincidence that we encountered this time around, I can tell that they’re clearly conscious of me.
“Hey, Hardt! Why did you do something like that!? Even though we were families of the same village!”
As Noel was being cautious of me and taking his distance as well, I heard a shitty voice from the back. When I looked in the direction of the voice, the sight of Stella who spoke to me with both hands in front of her chest like she was praying was there.
I couldn’t comprehend those words of hers at all. Noel targetted the opening of me unconsciously freezing up, and his Holy Sword approached me, but I couldn’t move even as that was entering my eyes.
“Hardt-sama!”
Although the voice that calls my name out from behind and the pain that courses from my right shoulder goes through my brain, I don’t have the leisure to be thinking about such things currently.
……families of the same village? Did you forget what your so-called families did to me? Did you forget what you did to my precious Okaa-san!?
“Wha-, I-, I can’t pull it out!?”
Noel tries to pull out the Holy Sword that dug into my shoulder, but he can’t quite pull it out because I’ve activated my Dark Sorcery and entwined the Holy Sword with the shadow.
It makes a sizzling burning-like sound, but there’s no problem since I clad the part it burns in a new shadow. And then, perhaps feeling the Magic Power that wells up from me, he forcefully poured Magic Power into his Holy Sword, severed the shadow, and quickly moved away from my side.
However, because I materialised and released spears created with Dark Sorcery in all four directions right before he moved away, Noel’s body was sliced open by the spears’ tips.
“Stella……I never would’ve thought, that you are that idiotic. Did you forget what you did to me……what you did to Okaa-san? I simply paid the village’s fellows back for that. What’s wrong with that?”
“Tha-, that was, inevitable! We would’ve all been killed if we didn’t do that!”
Stella who desperately makes her excuses. It’s not like anything she says to me at this point in time will reverberate with my heart. I simply, want to cruelly, and mercilessly kill you guys.
“Come, Bergius, Lou”
I create a Magic Circle in midair with the shadow and summon Bergius that I had on standby in a distance. I also call forth Lou that was on standby in the shadow at the same time. At the Dragon that appeared in the sky out of nowhere, Noel and company let out surprised voices, but even amongst them
『You’re, Bergius!!』
, a noticeably surprised-sounding voice was audible. The owner of the voice was, the White Dragon that Noel and the company rode over. As soon as the White Dragon sees Bergius, it flutters its wings and flies to the same altitude as Bergius.
『Hmm? Kuhahahah, what a nostalgic face this is. Light Dragon Licht. You’ve come to resemble your parents, haven’t you?』
『Is that coming from you, the one who killed my parents!? Furthermore, why are you alive!? Shouldn’t you have been killed by the Hero!?』
“Bergius, do it”
『Oops, I am ordered by my owner. My bad, but I’ll have you let me kill you as well, Licht』
Apparently, they have some connections as fellow Dragons, but there’s no time to be having a friendly chat. Unfortunately. Lou is heading towards the man called Arnold and the man in a white robe. Before me are Noel and the red-haired man. The ones left behind are Lig and Stella……alright
“Mars, let’s give you a job. I’m going to kill those two, so you capture them for me”
“Go-, got it!”
I really want to do everything myself, but there’s no way I can leave the two before my eyes be after all. The two who possess the same God’s Fragment as me.
