A Chronicle of Life in a Different World

Episode 546: Opening of the War Part 7

"Ahh... even though it was such a fine prey, you're using it like that."

Purple smoke that occurs when you swallow a revulsion. Aidan looked at it and shouted at Brain with dissatisfaction, but Brain did not shrug his shoulders.

"Normally, I won't stop it, but this time it's the other person. We should definitely take care of it."

"That's what I'm saying... oh, I want it. Even if he's not dead, he won't be able to fight properly if he's been exposed to it."

The purple smoke, which spreads to swallow nearly ten meters around the Reurus, was generated by Brain's special "Magic Equipment."

The effect is simple and powerful poison. It depends on compatibility, but it can be killed by an advanced monster, which is not used against humans by mistake.

It works even if it is sprayed with liquid, but it is already too late when it is swallowed by fog to fully work even when it becomes gaseous.

High-ranking healing magician users - that is, even unicorn Axis and superior magicians are difficult to "detoxify" immediately, and it was a substitute that could easily cause fatal injury if they did not take time to drain the poison little by little.

If you're a magical wind user, you'll be able to blow with the wind before the liquid becomes gaseous, but Reurus isn't. Brain, who knew about it from “advance information," thought it was the perfect magic tool to kill an opponent that Aidan couldn't easily take down.

"Gahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

Therefore, the roar heard from the purple smoke is the demon of the end. Is it an illusion or an illusion that Reus showed himself out of the purple smoke as if he ignored Brain's thoughts?

"You're lying! Hey!?

It was a Reurus that shook the big sword with the neck of Brain exposing the gap, but Aidan jumped up the tip of the spear and strayed from the slashing trajectory. As he picked up his life, Brain jumped backwards as he opened his eyes and looked at Reurus as if he had seen something incredible.

"Stupid... were you a magical wind user? No, I don't think so... what do you mean?

"Don't think about it later! He's barely slowing down!

Having destroyed his chance to strike a Special Attack, Reurus targets Aidan and launches another melee fight. Compared to Brain, it is calm, but still compared to earlier, Aidan, whose movement is slightly slow, starts slashing from next to next.

Unlike Aidan, Reurus' slashes are all special. Because of the large difference in skill, the effect does not pass, on the contrary, it is judged that the gap may be exposed, and no rush is made, and the blade is slammed with the momentum of a violent tornado.

But Aidan's defense won't come true. Though not intact, the spear tip, the pattern, the stone thrust, outweighs the slashing coming from the next.

Bishop Aidan only chooses to be a feat, and the spear that swings itself is an exquisite one. While meeting with Radia, he won't break, and he uses Aidan's skill to avoid fatal wounds.

Welcome back

"Hmm!?

But the moment Radia's blade grabbed her arm, Aidan made a slight anguish. Just like the wound on Reurus, the mark “cut and baked” is engraved, and Aidan's movement is slightly dull.

Such “backup” of Radia was unexpected as a revus, so the situation slightly collapsed. Aidan tried to shake Aidan's neck with a blade that returned from swinging the sword, but Aidan was already trying to jump backwards with force on both feet.

Also, Brain had recovered from the agitation and was holding the gun again, releasing the bullet to the position where Reurus would come when he shook his sword.

(Slashes - but kills)

Reurus kicks, not the sword. Aidan throws a kick in front of him with the intention of piercing his torso.

Reurus, who threw a kick without penetrating his sternum and ribs, slammed his right front kick into Aidan while watching the bullet pass just five centimeters from his head.

Aidan's feet flew away from the ground and his body flew through the air. However, the feeling returned to the right leg of Reurus was mild. Before the impact was fully transmitted, Aidan jumped backwards, sharpening the power of the kick.

Still, floating in space means exposing a gap. Reurus stared at Aidan and shook the radio as he stepped into the ground with the momentum of his kicked right foot.

Aidan, who is not in a good position, uses his magic blade to cut Reus in two vertically. But when he noticed it, Brain kicked Aidan from the side and forced him to evacuate from the trajectory of the magic blade.

"Ka, ha... oh, hey... thank goodness, Brain."

"You're not alarmed... are you?

"Respond. No slack, no slack... I can't pretend to be more alarmed than I've been scratched like this."

While saying that, Aidan gently strokes the wounds on his arms. It is shallower than the wound on the revulsion and less painful than hindering the fight.

However, regardless of the depth of the wound, I could not ignore that I was “wounded” in the same way as myself.

"I thought it was good, but it was unexpected, Temee... I don't know how long it's been boiling."

That's how I reposition my spear, Aidan. The whole body is full of murder and war, and flames appear not only in the spear, but also in the surrounding area.

Brain also loads a new bullet into the gun, without hesitation turning his eyes toward Reurus.

And Reurus, who fought those two, frowned on the fact that he couldn't get rid of them despite their surprising shape.

(I don't think it's going to have any effect... it was obviously poisonous.)

Aidan's skill level is one of the reasons, but the movement was slowed down slightly because of the poison he was exposed to. Although I don't feel much pain because I am using "Caloric Release", it seems that Seras is comparable to or more toxic than the scattered poison.

Reurus saw the ground and grass flowers with poisonous smoke turning purple, thickening the brows.

"Shit... you're using something that looks bad for your health and the environment. Don't you have a bad hobby for the name" Collector "?

"... it's bad for my health. I don't use such a“ gentle substitute ”. Was the advance information incorrect? I heard you were human too....."

"I don't know who bought it from, but it suits us. I don't care how you look at it.

Brain asks while looking at an unfamiliar creature, but there is no other answer as a revulsion. Although it may be non-human, Reurus recognizes himself as human.

"... it was poisonous enough to withstand monsters rather than humans. That's not enough to kill the Fire Dragon, but I was confident in the poison I made....."

"Did you make it?

Pickle and Reurus show a reaction. I don't know how to make or what kind of poison, but I was poisoned in King's City.

Reurus turns his gaze toward Brain, taking care not to let Aidan pierce the gap.

"Speaking of which, I wonder if some of the Gregorians who fought before used poison... wouldn't have scattered the poison they made to others?

Don't ask stupidly honestly, Reurus leads the Gregorians who fought before. Then Brain laughs small.

"Well... there's no reason to teach you that."

"Really... well, it's a poison that can't kill me alone. Is there anyone to take it? Yeah, I heard something stupid. Forget it. The poison used by the priests who fought before was quite effective and painful, so I wanted to give it back... but it was someone else who made it. That's right."

That said, when Reurus laughed back, Brain's cheeks slightly pulled.

"... I don't know what means you used, but it was the first time you didn't die from a poison that had immediate effect, no matter what poison you used to inflict pain for a long time. Still, if that's what you suffered, it's definitely the poison I made. The priest would have given it to me."

Brain asks if he's been holding back on something. When he heard that, Reurus smiled at Aidan as he measured his distance.

"This is the only poison that can fight like this. You gave it to me, but you didn't make it, did you? It's only profitable if we can get confirmation before we kill him. I don't know which one made such troublesome poison...."

Reurus cut off his gaze and hit Aidan with a killer, saying he wasn't interested at the earliest. Naturally, while being alert to gunfire, Brain keeps his cheeks pulled.

"Hmm... even this Mataroi has a demand for the poison I made. Nobody else, I made the poison.“ In the country where you serve as a baron, there have been orders. "

"... well, I can say anything with my mouth. And even if you say it's been a long time, it's only a little bit of demand these days."

Reurus' 'asking away' 'is important to Reurus, but not to Brain. Whether that's the cause, or whether Brain was proud of what he made against the name' Collector ', Brain zeroes in on the information.

"The oldest customer in this country has been buying it since 'seven years ago' and I am satisfied with its effectiveness. Unfortunately, the poison used seems to have been 'detoxified', but now we can make something far more than it was then... the poison that was recently made is as much as the aristocracy in this country bought it."

(Seven years ago...? Besides, recent poison....)

Even if I ask you honestly about Serras, you might answer, but that would be hopeless. Reurus believes Lewis is clearing up the Viscount Doria issue, and if he can get the information back, he'll see the answer.

And suppose Brain made the poison Seras used.

(... I originally meant to kill you, but you had another reason to kill me.)

Let's kill Brain, including the Ruvillia case.

Reurus thought so.
