Chapter 19: Man’s nature

Chapter 19: Man’s nature

Why am I dying in a place like this?

I’m supposed to go back to my hometown to wake up Apple and live happily with Selenium and Dianne. I didn’t even know how serious Laila was, as she wanted to live with me. My income is undeniable, but I still have a future to live happily with beautiful girls. Roughly, even Anzeros is bad. Maybe Dianne in a conclusion may not be in a pinch. Don’t suicide without permission. I’m not supposed to be a sacrifice without permission. To begin with, Anzeros is a friend, but that’s all. It is not known that she will kiss whoever her groom is. It won’t matter to me, Andy Smithson. So why did I jump out? The opponent is a Master Knight. Master Knight is the strongest. It’s the title of the one who has reached the strongest class of any warrior except Dragons. Dianne was so confident that she was so bandwagon. What am I despairing? Even though Dianne has been acclaimed as a master knight inside herself, she doesn’t actually have such a title. Even if it is just a social expression, I don’t know. I would not have been able to manage with a single crossbow to fight against such a Supreme being. What am I doing? It’s decided to lose. The result is this.

“Ugaaaa”

I′m garbage that can moan only in agony like a caterpillar in a puddle of blood. What are you doing, Andy? What are you doing? Don’t be kidding. Rewind the time. Do it again, damn it. Roughly, it rides on the condition because it was in love with a little fortune for a little great woman. You can’t wield a sword, you can’t do magic, your pay is cheap, you’re just a fool, a mere blacksmith’s son. I thought what I was. Did I misunderstand that everything that was chosen for God or something around me would eventually go to my own way? I′m just a Trot country-born townspeople. What was I going to be able to do with it precisely from the shoot of the crossbow? Don’t be kidding. Don’t be kidding. Don’t be kidding. I′m just a stage prop who is protected by a woman who fell in love with you by a misunderstanding. I′m just a human. Just a small fish. I was not satisfied with myself. I do not think there is anything special about me. I′m not like Dianne. I′m weak and small. Why didn’t I wait at the hotel with Anzeros as said? Why did not I do so? But it is fine. I don’t blame anyone. Why was it on top of my head. Why I pulled a bow to a man who I couldn’t win against absolutely. I showed hostility. It would have been nice to have Anzeros. It is self-suicide. No matter what he is, I have no responsibility. There should not be. Why, Why, damn if she isn’t even my woman.

At high speed, a condemnation of regret and stupidity fills my head. In reality, it’s not even a second. Still, blood flows out. I’m going to die. Selenium that is supposed to heal me is caught by Lucas and Anzeros is wobbling at the wall.

“Andy-san!!! Andy-san, no……nooooo!!!”

“Smithson……!!”

Lucas hinders the two from trying to get close to me. I am going to die even at that moment. Their eyes are stained with despair.

“Ge, General Lucas! Please step aside!”

“There is no way to talk. My bride”

“Kuu……”

“……Huhu, this is a good face. Would you truly hurt yourself, you can not keep yourself a little bit right?”

“Stop with your saucy speech!!”

“… … Take off”

“U……”

“Both of you take off your clothes, if you swear to become my wife while being naked, I won’t meddle during the treatment”

“Is it a hobby to get a woman like that? Low-life”

“Anzeros……san”

Anzeros didn’t hesitate to remove the clasp of her armor. Her sturdy black armor makes a sound as it hit the ground. The gloves are removed, the under armor and the short sword is pulled away in no time. Without hesitation, she will throw away her shame and reputation for me. Anzeros is going to throw her life away to save me, who is dying.

You idiot. You idiot. You idiot. You idiot. A few seconds ago, I thought what. I wish I had abandoned that foolish Anzeros. What a thought. Don’t be kidding. Don’t be kidding. Don’t be kidding.

『……Smithson, thanks for a while ago, affirm all of me. I was delighted』

Is this head of the idea that I should have abandoned that smile? Did she try to say that it was right to truncate the man who would not hesitate and throw away his life filled with pride for such a worthless person? Die. Die. Die of trash. Admit. would be nice. Admit.

“An……zeros……!!”

“Smithson!!”

“Such a fucking guy…………your nakedness…… don’t show it……!!”

I′m passive and I think as if it is not my responsibility to have done a Harem without permission and all blame it on the person. I’m going to throw it away now. Let’s admit this ugly ego-scattered monopoly desire. It is better to voice out than to convince Anzeros to give up and become a hostage.

“You, you are pretty cute, to such a guy…….never”

“…… Smith, son?”

“What is this guy? On the verge of death, was he trapped in an illusion?”

Anzeros with tears, and Lucas, who was twisting up Selenium, had a dubious face. I think I’m going to tell you what a dying small fish is. But now at this moment, my gut has sprouted. That pride burns up my resignation. Does it pass to the ear of this shitty man who tries to get a woman for his collection like this? Anzeros, even Selenium are mine.

Multiply a moment ago turning thoughts at high speed.

For the time being it is hemostasis. Although it is still good if the wound has collapsed even if it breaks by the same one, his sword completely cut my foot resolutely. This is very masculine without any elements that make it difficult for blood to come out. Selenium shouts that she wants to heal it, but with the power of the medical light technique, it is at best about eliminating wounds and blood beans that tore the epidermis with a knife. If it is Selenium she can force herself to shatter her life even though she loses her life, but still, such an injury will not be bad. The average human guy says that it will not be enough in time for more than 4 cups of bowls to bleed. There is no time. Even though I think Lucas will get in the way, I do not have time to hold down the blood vessels with strings or press on the wound slowly. It is necessary to block the wound at once. Think about the means. Remember what you can do. Is not there something? Anything is fine.

“!”

I came up with something. If I bake the wound with the sealed fire breath……no. Those flames can burn a Hellsboar. How did it just cut the wound……. Damn it. Not yet. Don’t give up. The enemy is strong. I don’t have any weapons. It’s a big wound. The tool doesn’t fit. So you give up, Andy. So, Andy, do you want to allow Anzeros and Selenium to be shamed? What were your 15 years? What was the hardship after leaving home? It’s all mobilized. Whatever it is, use everything you can. It’s good to use the flames. It’s a clue, it’s a way. I hope there is a way to burn my foot to such an extent that I won’t die within the flames. Fire fires farther away……no, I do not know the actual power of the sealed fire breath in the first place. Damn. It was necessary to have asked Laila how strong her fire breath is. Shall I bet? She gave it to me to protect Jeanne. Maybe a powerful flame will only come out small for a moment and burn only a small area……it’s too bad to bet on it. Is it good to make a burning suicide move? First of all, I need to survive and then handle this pervert elf with Anzeros and Selenium. If I die I will only reduce one of his bargaining seeds. Even if he doesn’t negotiate, he forced Anzeros, but that doesn’t mean anything. I only have to control the flames. So, for example, focus the flame in one direction. I can do it, for example, if there is a slightly deeper rock dent, I can throw the seal stone behind it and it’s fine. If I thrust it at my blood dripping foot, it will be able to stop bleeding. Where is the best place? Yes, hidden behind the pillars around that side or beyond that pillar……am I able to do it? I can’t move in the first place. Fuck. I wish I could use magic. I should have learned more seriously. I don’t have to be cured by healing magic. A technique that controls the force of this sealed stone is just fine…… wait a moment. There. I’m an idiot! Why didn’t I remember it sooner? The engraving is a technique that controls the flow of power including magic. I guess I could have been a compliment to people about it. Carve the crest. Soon. …… How? I carve that it’s not that special pen. How do you do that? Are there any alternatives? If it is the one with the magic, you can substitute. I have a glass of shiny stone outside. Dammit, is that 10kg going to chop the crest with a likely boulder? …… I got it. Do you engrave the crest with a seal or a scratch? It’s the Treasure of dragons, I don’t know if there’s anything magical about it. But it’s worth the betting. Come on, absorb and release. Focused release. It is the basis of the engraving. It’s easy, I can chew a day. Draw calmly. If this is decided, I will make a surprise. I can’t die yet. Hurry!

So far, 3 seconds.

I roll the sealed stone out of my pocket and hide it in my hand. The marble floor is like a carpet of blood, no problem. I’m not going to draw a complicated one. From here, I made the absorption position on the left side from me and the release position on my right. That’s it. The amount of absorption……a little will be enough. No matter how much fire is focused on the heat, it will be a big burn and now release. Carefully go around this.

“What you are doing, human”

Lucas was frowned upon when he saw that I started to stir up my blood all of a sudden. Did he find out that it’s not just insane madness? But it’s too late. I rolled over and put my left injured leg on the release position. And, in the middle of the absorption position, the sealing stone……

“Do you still hold a weapon?”

Lucas kicked at my hand. The sealed fire breath is exposed and Selenium is surprised. I guess he did not think that I was playing around this period.

“Is it a magical tool, a throwing-off type? Were you planning to hit me with such a thing, me who could not be hit by a crossbow?”

“Ku……”

“I don’t like it. I have to cut that hand”

Lucas pulled out the fine sword that he put on his hip at once with a theatrical tone. He looks at Anzeros. I guess he is expecting Anzeros to rush and swear her slavery. But the hand that held the sword overlaps in the ray of the release position, just above my left wounded leg.

A golden opportunity, Goodbye my left foot. Thank you for 25 years.

I smash the sealing stone on the absorbing position. Lucas, who is truly super-fast, seems not to have thought that my movement is an attack and can’t react in time. Sink or swim. If the crest doesn’t react by smashing the sealed stone, it’s only a suicide show from myself. However, at the moment of the smash, the engraving under the blood emits a pale light.

Goooouu!!

I absorb the power of the sealed stone as I aim and focused on the radiation. The fire breath became a heat-ray, growing in a straight line, charred the wound at the tip of my left foot and roasted Lucas’s dominant arm.

“Guaaaaaaaa!!?”

Lucas retreats after releasing the fine sword from his hand which got burned very badly. Also, a strange sweat is on the black burnt wound, which is far from a burn. The pain is still the same. Or rather, there is an abnormal feeling that the blood of the whole body is flowing backward alternately between fire and ice blocks. An emergency. But I wonder if I really survive? No, I can do that later. The next thing is what to do with this shithead. I have to do it. Even if one hand is taken, it is doubtful how far his power has fallen. He’s not a ball player. He is the Master knight who can fight equally with three Ace knights. He proved that he is a Master Knight. His speed that surpasses the speed of my crossbow is still intact. What can I do? Think. Don’t give up. It’s a success so far. I need to think.

“You……this trash!! Human, Human trash!!!”

“Hehe……a good ore has brought out metal, General-san……”

I make my head think of an idea while provoking this bastard. Can I defeat this man? Anzeros can’t keep up with that speed. The trap like now won’t work again. However, being able to crush his dominant arm means that it is possible for Anzeros to defeat him. I wonder if it will be so in any case. How many more cards do we have? Can Anzeros fight? Could I ask Selenium for something? What can I do without my feet? Think. Think.

“Kuu……You will regret this!! I will cut off both your arms and legs!! Dig out your eyes and fill the holes with dung!! I will scrape away all your teeth and tongue so that you will never speak any words again before I will hang you in the same room as these two half-elves!! With our technology I can connect nerves to your hollowed eyes, as you live and decay, you will keep watching how these girls will be ravished by me and groan because of pleasure!!”

“What a dirty and shitty elf, everyone is far better than you……”

“Don’t open your mouth anymore!!”

I was kicked into the belly. I don’t think it hurts so much. Even so, I heard that elves are considerable bigotry, but I never thought it would be that much. No, the teacher from the crest engraving institute and Aurora aren’t bad people only a bit strange. I guess this guy has strong special awareness. I bet he was boxed like Trot nobleman. Is it such a luck that such a man is the strongest in the country?

“Abominable…… Anzeros, give me your sword”

“Are you drowsy”

“Mu……Uoo!?”

Lucas tried to pick up the sword of Anzeros instead of his own sword that was bent and useless. But Anzeros responds with a slash. Lucas dodges it in the last minute. With several shock waves that took place, he retreated a few steps back.

“Did you not know the difference between our powers yet!”

“I forgot. Thank you for teaching me again”

In that gap, Anzeros and Selenium stand in front of me. Anzeros who tore herself under the armor was half-naked, but she didn’t mind doing that and Selenium jumps to me and used her medical treatment spell on my foot.

“Andy-san, are you okay……?”

“Se, Selenium, quickly stop the bleeding, you can take care of my foot later”

“Yes, please wait for a moment────!!”

Selenium crawls her hand on my bloody back and murmurs a spell while pushing at one point. At that moment, it was painful. 𝑓𝑟eℯ𝒘𝗲𝑏n𝑜𝚟𝙚𝒍.𝒄o𝐦

“……Th, thanks”

“I just disguise the pain as a tactile illusion, because I can’t heal it”

“I know”

Even though my foot is laying near, it cant be cured.

Meanwhile, Anzeros was cutting the distance while confronting Lucas who is holding down his hand.

“Is that human so important”

“At least he is better than a shitty elf like you”

“You need to listen to a general, 10-man captain”

“It’s funny that a sex harasser like you is a general. If you′re the general of an army, show me your dignity”

“It seems you want to make me angry, no matter how brave you are when I become serious I can get rid of your beloved 100-man corps”

“Your young master personality is exposed. What is it, are you scared of a woman and want to crush a corps? Will you go cry to the higher ups of the army?”

“Don’t be kidding, do you really think I can’t fight because I don’t have a sword in my hand?”

“Let’s stop with this tedious talk”

Both of them talk about intense things, but that alone does not work. Lucas is avoiding Anzeros′s gaze. He is looking for a weapon. He seems to be a warrior who relied on a sword more than he thought. On the other hand, Anzeros can not move as she protects Selenium and me. It is a checkmate this time when she is beaten r we are taken hostage by him. If I could support her with something. I can do something if I use the sealed stone and engraving……suddenly, there was a sound from my hand.

“!”

The sealed stone is in my hand. Before I know it, the sealed stone blackened like charcoal and become brittle. When I grip it with my hand, it collapses further and breaks as smooth as possible.

“Andy-san……”

“………”

By the way, I feel that Laila said “disposable.” I see. It can only be used once. When it comes to that, there is nothing more I can do.

“Ku……”

I wanted to gain time for Anzeros. Even if Lucas continues to threaten us endlessly without finding a weapon, we have no way to fight back and this is our enemy’s territory. I don’t know where the support comes from. I’d like to hope that Dianne comes to aid, but Lucas’s case will be tough with Dianne. Dianne and Becker are both 100-man commanders and I don’t think they’ll ever die, but I can’t expect them to be a victory at least for us. What do we do? What do we do?

“……Smithson. Selenium”

“?”

Anzeros whispers to us.

“Are you going to stay in the corner of the room a little more?

“Ah, yes”

“Okay”

Anzeros unravels the string that had tied her hair and spreads her hair.

“Take responsibility”

“Eh”

“Because you interrupted the marriage of two people”

“But, Anzeros, you……”

Anzeros smiled.

“Lady-killer”

Her hair draws a trajectory and Anzeros assaults.

“Mu, oh!?”

“Haaaaaaaaaa!!!”

Slashing anger. Anzeros’s sword is fast. I can not count how many emissions are before my eyes. Lucas tries to prevent it with the candlestick which was around him inevitably and didn’t see Anzeros as an opponent.

“Impudent!”

Lucas raises his speed. Anzeros keeps up with him. Faster. Faster. Anzeros still keep up to him.

“What……!?”

“Deaaaaa!!!”

Lucas kicks the table in front of him trying to hold down Anzeros and jumps up. Anzeros makes that table fall apart for a moment before she approaches Lucas. Lucas was terrified. Anzeros is clearly different from before. Looking at his right burned hand and me, Lucas still is sore, but he instantly gripped the crooked fine sword with his left hand to fight Anzeros. However, he is not able to correspond with Anzeros′s sword fighting.

“Nu, uuu……!!!”

Gyikikikikikikikikikikiki!!!

A too fast swordsmanship becomes a continuous sound like a chain dragged on a rock. That shitty noble elf who only attacked all this time is clearly defending poorly as he is not accustomed to it. A short while later Anzeros beat Lucas’s small sword and break it to with one attack.

“Ku……d, don’t do it, beheading sword Anzeros. That’s it”

“I should have told you that I′m not your friend……no, the reward of hurting my precious person, you will pay for it”

“……ku, I, I didn’t want to use this, but……na!”

Lucas thrusts his hand behind the tapestry on the wall. Anzeros thrusts at him expressionlessly. But Lucas who escaped Anzeros slash pulled out something from the back of the tapestry. It is a sword. A huge sword that is nearly 2m only by the blade like the one ogres use.

“Huhahahaha!! It was fun, beheading sword Anzeros! But you’re too much on the pitch! I told you, here the strongest and supreme one is me!”

Too honest, it is a ridiculous weapon. However, a complicated pattern is engraved on the blade and sometimes the rainbow-colored light is running on it. It is obviously not an ordinary weapon.

“……Dragonslayer”

The dazed Selenium muttered.

“That”

“Yes, I’ve seen a similar thing in the Affilm Museum”

Transcendental warriors called dragonslayers once caused the fire dragon war. Their weapons left behind in ruins of the ancient civilization are also called dragon slayer. Many of those weapons are said to have been shattered or sealed by people who were scared of the dragons during the Fire Dragon War a hundred years ago. Most of the things that remain a little are under strict control by the state. The characteristic is destructive energy deviating from normal. If you shake it, the earth ruptures, the tide breaks, and the clouds disappear. Lucas has a strongly burned hand, but if that is the legendary dragon slayer, no matter how Lucas is carrying a handicap, it is dangerous.

“Anzeros, run away!!”

“No”

Anzeros cut off my cry with an immediate answer. …..When she runs away, the next one is me. Anzeros is going to protect me who can’t escape.

“Huhahahahaha!! That’s the spirit! The moment beautiful things are broken is also beautiful!!!”

Lucas was elated. Swinging the sword toward Anzeros. The pattern of the dragonslayer developed intricately and released a rainbow color light strongly.

Dooooonn!!

“!!!!”

Anzeros dodged by just jumping aside. Lucas’s heavy slash has produced a huge and violent slashing wave, regardless of its dullness, it made fissures over several dozen meters. The ventilation is getting much better.

“Huhahahahahaha! How! I don’t want to be told to rely on this thing to win, but as long as I have it, I’m invincible! Disappear Anzeros!”

The sight of it is so chilly. With such a suitable attack, it still powers to roam the building up to several tens of meters. Yes, you can fight dragons if it is a skilled warrior. Deathlock. There is no way we can fight such a thing. ……I can fight.

“No, wait a minute”

Dianne’s face flickered in my mind. What will she do? How will she fight?

“…………”

I took the crossbow that was lying beside me. I pulled the string of the crossbow. I attached an arrow to it while sitting and aim for Lucas′s arm who is fighting.

“Hey, Selenium, can you help me shoot”

“Should I shoot when you can’t shoot?”

“Later”

I pulled the trigger and an arrow pierce through the wrist of Lucas.

“Guaaaaaaaaa!?”

Lucas let the dragonslayer fall to the ground while screaming. ……He is a fool. He didn’t think about a projectile or a double attack at all.

“Checkmate, Lucas”

Anzeros moved quickly and shove her sword against Lucas′s throat. We won against this general who was ignorant of the world.

We tied Lucas up with ropes that I had with me and Selenium restrains his magic power at least for a few hours.

“Do you think that it is fine by just doing things like this, half-elves and human?”

“It seems to be cheaper than being your bride”

Anzeros returns a serious look.

“It’s better than being a prey to that dragonslayer”

Selenium talks while kicking away the dragon slayer.

“It’s also better than having my eyes filled with feces”

I also say this ironically.

“That dark elf and Sieg Becker won’t survive when you tie me up. There are 300 elite soldiers from the southern army corps, who will finish Sieg Becker……”

“What’s with me?”

“Uwaa!?”

As if to cut into this idle gossip, 100-man special duty commander Becker has emerged. Dianne is also behind him.

“Andy, that figure”

“……I failed”

“Failed! Don’t be reckless!”

Dianne who sees my carbonized leg has a face that is about to cry and hugs me deeply. I′m a little happy that my face is buried in Dianne′s big breasts. No, if I don’t immerse myself in this happiness, I will be thinking about it throughout my lifetime and my heart will be broken.

“Why are you here……Father”

“I am an old friend with Dior, it’s from before you were born and we came back home after a cup of tea ceremony”

Dianne said in a cold voice.

“No wonder the son of Dior is such a person. Will he change over the time of hundred years?”

“Wh, wh……what do you mean, you, what is that!”

“Go home and listen to your parents slowly. I will take the girls back”

“……!!!!”

“Ah, and……this is for Andy’s foo

Dianne with a smile gets up and makes a strong kick at Lucas’s neck that could break by it and blew him away 5m.

———————————

The following is a reconfiguration based on Dianne’s story.

Originally this forest area centered on Klaves was a buffer zone not belonging to any country until around the fire dragon war. It seems that it was impossible to contribute anywhere in the relationship of the power figures until the streets in the continent were destroyed one after another in the fire dragon war. However, due to the fire dragon war, the national group was forced to reorganize and the forest territory was also incorporated into Celesta after the twists and turns. It was a terrible feeling, it was a territorialization in the state of refusing entry into the economic zone although it was permitted for the time being. However, the invasion began from the southern Lapard Islands aiming for the forest territory (which was a powerful enemy at the time as a small country that is nothing to do because Celesta′s armaments were in place now), the forest territory did not irresistibly ask for help from Celesta. However, the relationship from other commerce and industry chores were getting worse due to the relationship so they showed awfully frustrated at the time of incorporation, and no chambers of commerce made any active support. Since the armaments were not in place as mentioned above, direct support from the commerce and industry was indispensable for the activities of the military. Also, on the other hand, from reflection on giving room to whine due to the transference in a discussion, by depriving the Lapard islands once and then depriving them again with power, without questioning the economic sphere without intention such as colony leader, there was also an abdominal surgery to take in uselessly. But if that happens, the lush green forest will become a battlefield often. The blow that the forest receives in war is enormous, the time and effort required for repair are immeasurable. It was fatal to the forest elves who depend on the forest to live. t was Dianne (surveying engineer at that time) to have helped because she had seen it. It seems that she crushed all the landing bases of the invasion forces of the Lapard Islands, baked the ship from one end, and turned over with only a few dozen surveying teams (all members were noncombatants) in the battle situation. Of course, the forest elves were pleased. There were some who felt humiliated by being saved by a dark elf who is traditionally looked down at one step, but there is no doubt that she had saved the forest crisis. Especially delighted by it was Dior-san, the colony leader, who gave a specially tailored longsword to Dianne-san. Dior-san has shown his utmost friendship to Dianne’s Oasis colony since.

However, this case begins with Dior-san’s dark elves’ favor. Because Dianne’s success and her beauty were brilliant, Dior-san wasn’t enthusiastic about marrying despite having no children. I mean, he wasn’t keen on making a child. It was a problem. A colony leader who never dates. Elves have nobility in their pedigree among elves, among which those with particularly good bloodlines become leaders. The society which emphasizes the goodness of the bloodline is sometimes paranoid. There seems to be a rule that every 10 leaders of local forest elves have to leave children behind. Not becoming impatient as he grew old, Dior-san had no intention of making children. But still persuaded after a long time, Dior-san somehow made children. Not many. 8 in total. But his bride was already the first to say that she was tired of making her husband concerned. Getting a daughter from a dark elf so that he can make a child. And the surroundings began to run away. On the other hand, his son and daughter who grew up quickly polished their arms at the martial art gallery created to protect the forest territory while feeling suspicious of their father having an unclean face when it comes to the dark elf’s story. They grow up to be splendid warriors. Despite doing his work properly, Dior-san didn’t care about his job properly and didn’t care about his surroundings worrying about himself just for not making children, while his children swallowed it down. A foolish son who selflessly confers a guardian deity of the forest territory with confidence indefinitely, to be recognized as a master knight and showing off his power. Anyway, his son wanted to make the children by kidnapping female young dark elves and female ogres one after another. Dior-san who isn’t good at anything if it has to do with dark elves is at a loss as he stabs his knees with no understanding of his surroundings. He had a stupid son who began to make a harem busily out of a misunderstanding until now. It seems that is the case.

“……Sword, did you got it?”

“Yeah, I got a knife from you”

“……That, it was a proposal”

“Hmm? Why?”

Dianne made a strange face.

“In the dark elf custom, if I gave you a knife for free, wasn’t it a proposal?”

“If it is free of charge, but I have received it as a reward for military exploits”

“…………”

Dior-san. Perhaps he studied and practiced the custom of dark elves to propose to Dianne, but it seems that his intent hasn’t been received even after a hundred years.

“Free means that you gift something without receiving any compensation in return”

Moreover, it seems that only me who didn’t want to receive money made a real proposal to Dianne, even if it wasn’t my intention.

“Well, there is no way to get behind the scenes”

100-man commander Becker looks outside from the broken wall.

“It’s very troublesome to have the desire to replace your bloodline. Followers are starting to gather”

“……Roughly 50 people?”

“They are still gathering. I wonder how long they will take”

Dianne seems to be reading precisely what is happening outside with the precision that won’t lose to the skills of 100-man commander Becker. At the same time, Dianne keeps hugging me.

“A while ago, Lucas was saying that two infantry and one cavalry corps are under his command”

When Anzeros reports, 100-man commander Becker nod and she deliberately deflects her eyes.

“Is that so. ……10-man captain Anzeros, you, you were a beauty?”

“It’s not like I’ve changed my face”

“Well, that’s true. …..but it is poisonous to the eyes, wearing this”

The 100-man commander took off his coat and put it over Anzeros who is still wearing only her underwear. Like a dad, a bit cool. I would have done it if I had a jacket.

“……100-man commander′s jacket, the arms are too long”

“Take the sleeves and bind them around your abdomen”

Besides, it is great when it is too big for her body. It’s a cute point.

In the end, it was useless to stay in this place, so we decided to leave this place while paying attention to the multiplicity of people who haven’t shown up yet. Selenium cast an illusion on my leg and with her help, I could move but it seemed so unnaturally.

“Uh…before that”

Selenium claps her hands before leaving the house and ran perfectly to Lucas who was tied down suddenly.

“I forgot to give back what you did to Andy-san”

“Ah, don’t do anything too rough”

Even though we have already won, there is no point in hurting anymore. As it is about Selenium, her attitude can change abruptly 90 degrees,

“Andy’s gentle, right? Your foot has been cut off……so why don’t we cut one of his legs too?”

“Don’t say such a serious and scary thing with such a smile”

“Eheheee?”

She smiled wickedly. And then.

“Well then, I will be rude……ei”

Stepping. No, it is not a level of being rude already. With the momentum of stepping down on the floor, she stepped with all her might on Lucas. A bit.

「AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!」

Lucas’s scream echoes. ……I dare not to say something because I can imagine where Selenium stepped on and it will hurt greatly.

“Selenium, you, oh my god……”

“Hmm, in fact, it is not enough to satisfy my hatred even if he gets filled with various things, gets stuffed all over or gets packed in various ways”

“No, no, calm down Selenium”

“I’m calm? I just can’t forgive him for what he did”

Selenium smiles with a grin. 100-man commander Becker and I looked at Lucas whose eyes became pale white and keeps trembling and somehow look away while nodding to each other. Selenium is the type of woman who should not be turned to an enemy the most.

So, for the time being, Selenium lend me a shoulder and together with the others, we slowly go out to the main street while our weapons are put back into the sheaths, waiting for us there were the two infantry and one cavalry corps. They are probably the elite soldiers. Next moment 100-man commander Becker whistled.

“You’re hindering the traffic, please step aside”

“Dark elf say greatly”

One of the infantry says this in a foolish tone. It was a human. Does he feel depressed by Lucas’s bloodloss for some reason?

“There is a report saying that someone is rampaging at the general’s house……was it you guys?”

They were informed……was it that butler elf? Well, there was also the strike from that dragonslayer, so it won’t be surprising if the neighborhood made a report.

“The general was on a rampage. He was drunk”

“Don’t lie, you are bad anyway. The general always has right, so we have always right”

“I heard that belief is not an elf’s field, which is awkward”

When 100-man commander Becker shrug his shoulders, the infantry corps became murderous.

“Let’s do it”

“Wait, Sieg Becker, that guy”

“Ace knight?”

“What, there are more than one ace knight”

“The other two are girls, who are they?”

These words whispered through their mouths. 100-man commander Becker is quite famous for his special duty corps.. …and Anzeros and Dianne are not known at all. Well, since Anzeros is in various ways complicated, even though it can not be helped and Dianne isn’t even known.

“Yeah yeah, I understand that you are faithful to your boss, but it’s a great night in Klaves, so let me relax in a fluffy bed”

100-man commander Becker waves with his hands. Freezing the infantry even more. A soldier with a spear advances. It is a young elf.

“Do you mock us, Celesta′s south splendid soldiers, Sieg Becker?”

“I think that I don’t make fun of you, but it seems that the prosperity has changed quite a lot, even if it is prosperous”

“!!”

“I thought that there were many old men with more bones in the time when they were said to be the third soldiers in the west and the second soldier in the south, what the hell are paramilitary soldiers and elves doing here?”

“Whether you can cling to the old soldiers and keep their strength, the times are constantly changing, you should change those old fellows with young people!”

“Don’t stain the flag of the predecessors, it is the reputation that those old dogs left behind for youngsters”

“Ku…… cheeky everywhere”

The young elf set up his spear. 100-man commander Becker smirked when he made himself ready……but before that, Dianne raised her hand.

“Why do you set up your spear?”

“Are you a friend? Or an enemy who harms the general?”

An adolescent elf immediately answered Dianne’s inquiry. Dianne quietly turns her eyes down.

“Well, if we′re not friends……then you are an enemy who will be killed”

“If you could kill me! I’m an Ace knight……”

Before finishing his words, the young elf was kicked up by Dianne and was flying as high as 8 meters. His broken spear rolls on the ground.

“Now I got pumped up……come over from anywhere, I will kill you all”

Serious murder intention flares from Dianne. Very serious murderous intention that wasn’t shown even when fighting Laila. Her words were transmitted with a quiet tone, but it had the destructive impulse on the verge of snapping.

“Ah……it would be better for you guys to run away, seriously the current commander, can’t be stopped even by 10 ace knights”

“That……is there such a thing!”

“We are 100 elite soldiers! One dark elf without a night class…….”

“Noisy noisy noisy! Stop this tedious talk and hurry! The sin for hurting my man is still not enough for the lives of all of you!”

Gooo!!!

Dianne releases a kick to the sky. Only 2 or 3 infantry soldiers were hit, flew away and knocked on the trees and the ground. The shock wave that Anzeros struck with a sword, can be made by Dianne′s kick. No, if it comes to that, she surely can put it out by hand. Any weapon. How many warriors can bear it if they are blown away by hands and feet of such power? Dianne doesn’t have a weapon. There is no meaning to have one. Now I know. She is different from Lucas. She is the real monster.

『Dianne tell me? It’s a big deal for a weaponless dark elf. I felt something close to the original Dragon Slayer』

Laila’s words resurrected in my mind. ……What happens if Dianne has a dragon slayer. Won’t she be a rampaging creature who is at the dragons-class?

“What’s wrong! Only your mouths are talking!! Come over, come over! And die! I’m telling you to come at me from anywhere!”

The angry Dianne, let the infantry soldiers be frightened of her. But arrows are aimed at Dianne from the darkness of the trees.

“Danger……!”

Selenium shouts with her voice in a hurry. When she raises her voice, the cognitive power of the surroundings concentrates and the illusion was solved. However, Dianne isn’t someone who will be hit by arrows.

“Hmm”

She is gone. She is equal to Lucas or even better. Dianne already moved at a speed that can’t be seen with the eyes. Even without seeing her the archers know that she will come for them. After a few seconds, the elf archers fell down from the trees here and there. They were knocked down by Dianne.

“She is a monster……”

“How can we win……”

The soldiers who have fallen on their butts showed very terrified expressions as they talk with each other. 100-man commander Becker sighed.

“All Master Knights are monster, what did you think she was?”

The surroundings became strange. There are seriously a lot who crawl or run away from Dianne.

“Ku……Don’t run away, don’t run away!! You guys are still the guardians of the proud elven territory!”

It seems like that a 10-man captain still tries to inspire his allies, but he seems to be a small fish who has nothing to say. Suddenly his mouth was blocked with a sword and a graceful red-haired elf advanced.

“You lost, know how to give up, 10-man captain Dover”

“……Ah, Aurora-sama”

“A strong man does not reduce military power unnecessarily, but grasps the tactical goal firmly and exerts the power only when necessary, there is no purpose just for doing a non-objective assault”

“Hi, Hiee……”

“……Good day, 『Beheading sword』 Anzeros, 『Daydreamer』Sieg Becker and 『War god』 Dianne-sama”

“『War god』……”

“Could it be her from Trot war……?”

“Did we challenge her without knowing?”

Apparently, Dianne′s nickname was recognized by two people. Aurora seems to be a bit enthusiastic. I can understand the nicknames 『Beheading sword』 and 『War god』, but what is with 100-man commander Becker′s 『Daydreamer』.

“And Smithson-san. ……I haven’t forgotten you”

She smiled. Aurora elegantly kneels to the green road that is echoing with screams and despair. Then she asks Dianne for forgiveness.

“Please forgive my brother’s rudeness today, let’s compensate for what I can compensate for under my name”

“…………”

Dianne slowly releases her fists. Finally the horrifying fierce ended, and the trembling soldiers also caught a civil elf who was hiding.

—————————————————

Miraculously, Dianne didn’t kill one person.

“I thought they don’t deserve to die, so I only hit them”

Dianne finished chewing on her tea with a serious look. Scary.

“Andy they surely would be dead……if Laila was there. Even Klaves would be destroyed”

“Ah”

“……Surely”

Selenium and Anzeros nod. 100-man commander Becker and Aurora had a “?” on their faces. We are in a room in a hotel. Selenium′s and Dianne’s room. We had three rooms in total, one room for those two, one for Anzeros and one for 100-man commander Becker and me. Then, as a proof of reconciliation, I was going to give a greeting anyway, inviting Aurora and holding a tea party at night. By the way, I am on Dianne’s bed. It was hard to get treatment.

“Smithson-san seems to be very popular, that even the war good Dianne-sama cherishes him”

“That, can you stop doing that, something is wrong with it”

Dianne looks uncomfortable.

“You′re the most admired person. The strongest, humble, genius, hard worker, charismatic and humanist”

It is true. In this way, it is really unbelievable to describe Dianne like that.

“During daytime, I was taking the experience to learn crest engraving together with Smithson-san……at that time I thought if there is something that could make me interested in like using a sword, then I met Smithson-san who carved crests for the first time and I learned more than I thought”

Your eyes hurt. Don’t pay attention to me. What the hell is that again?

“However, what I felt was fate, after I heard that when I insulted Anzeros-san with a childish pride, that Smithson is from Celesta. From the point I heard that, I realized that my world is too narrow and thinking that humans teach the world’s space to short-lived humans……whatever I am going to do I noticed that there was no accumulation to look down on someone, no matter what, it was my complete defeat…..to a simple person who is not just a human but also is weak in handling a sword”

“That, I, I thought of a lot of things and said many things that time……”

“Besides, Smithson-san beat my brother today, who never lost to anyone even though he is a snob minding only his appearance, has a quick temper and not very smart”

“No, I didn’t win against General Lucas……”

“I am the sister of that man. It is meaningless now, but only this lineage can be ignored by anyone in this city. I think that it is best for me to accompany you for a while in order to avoid my elder brother in the future. Of course, it’s my own intriguing”

It’s kind of the usual pattern. Don’t look at me like that. It’s not my fault. I made up my mind to be cool when I helped Anzeros, but this isn’t my fault, is it?

『……Haa』

Everyone sighed at the same time besides 100-man commander Becker and Aurora.

“Well, it surely goes well with what she says”

“Honestly, considering the assistance of Smithson, it is certain that you want more manpower for the future”

“Uh……but it’s a bit complicated for me.”

It is said that she is said to be an assistant, and then she realizes again that she has no more legs.

“……However, Andy′s leg, if possible, should be operated properly. It would be dangerous for the thigh if it isn’t handled properly”

“Somehow I can’t cure…… that, if it didn’t heal, I would have been responsible for it, but I would have to take care of it”

“Well, that is fine……or maybe he will be healed once he returns to Polka……”

Anzeros who was afraid and Dianne who was thinking stops perfectly. Looking into the air for a couple of seconds, those two and I looked up and pointed to Selenium at the same time.

『That’s it!』

100-man commander and Aurora have no idea of what we mean and drank their tea quietly.
