A Chronicle of Life in a Different World
Episode 174: Changes Part 1
"SHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
It was Reurus who set it up first. He roared like a beast and slashed from the front to Laurent, who took the position of "waiting” while holding the curved sword.
Laurent's curved sword is shorter and about half as long as Reurus's great sword. Therefore, Reus stepped out of Laurent's time and slashed him in the crossbow with the intention of turning him into two.
Instead of just waving “on your own”, you hit a mass of metal with physical abilities "enhanced" by Eliza and Sarah's magic. If it hits, the human body will be cut easily.
"Haha! I'm fine. Hey."
--If it hits, but...
In response to the slash, which would have been two straight hits, Laurent misses by knocking the curved blade straight from the side. Even though she had been slashed if she had acted out of line for a second, Laurent even had a spare smile on her face.
However, I am not surprised that it is a revulsion. I thought the skill was superior just by looking at the opponent's posture. Even if the fool honestly slashed it from the front, he didn't even think it would blur.
Laurent is a man who wants to become a Gregorian bishop. The skill is quite high - Reus slashes what he knows.
Swing down your big sword, wipe it out, and stick it out. Swing a lump of metal slightly more than ten kilometers at a breathless speed.
It was Lauren who had plenty of laughter at first, but his expression gradually changed to the appearance of Reurus slashing from one shot to the next.
He was in a good mood at first, surprised at second, and finally looked alert and confused.
"Hmm!
Laurent plays a slightly more aggressive slash of Reurus, which is about to tear the midline in two at the border. Then jump backwards immediately and tap your right shoulder at the peak of the curved blade to redo the partition.
"It's a rough sword... the technology isn't that high, but it's powerful. The way I fought is similar to the dwarf, but different... I thought it was a monster just like the ladies behind me, but the way I fought and the way I fought was within the realm of“ man. ”
It was less than a minute of battle, but the result of observing Reurus was the word.
The technology is not that high. I don't think you're an amateur, and you've never officially learned a sword. He seems to be swinging his sword with his physical abilities alone, and there is a gap in the “seam” of the serial fire.
Simply looking at technology alone, Laurent is not attracted to anything. Judging by skill alone, it would be inferior to a priest rather than a Gregorian priest.
Still, it will be Reurus who wins.
"A world-class sword polished in action... no, no, no, no. The sword of the beast."
High physical abilities, motor vision, reflex nerves - and wild animal-like combat intuition.
Laurent evaluates it as a beast's sword, not a right path, but an evil one for those who have learned the sword “well behaved”.
Reurus answered Laurent without a word, releasing a lethal air and tightening the gap. Reurus' gaze was directed to the head, neck and heart of Laurent, and silently filling the gap seemed to herald the beast's flying.
"The ladies in the back were crossing my shoulders, but it got interesting."
That swells up the sense of intimidation unleashed from Laurent. Reassemble the curved sword that was tapping on the shoulder and look straight at the revulsion.
"It's Laurent, the Gregorian priest. I know the ladies in the back were talking... Can you tell me their names?
The inquiry shall be answered with a silent blade.
Reurus instantly squeezed away the big sword and tried to rip Laurent's neck off. However, the surprising slashing was also lightly diverted, and now the Reus jumps backwards to take a distance.
"Shit...."
Reurus leans forward with a single tongue and a large sword on his right shoulder. Even if you pull the Dragon Slash out of the sheath, you can't imagine a future where you can slay Laurent. "Caloric Release" may help push it out, but for Reurus, "destiny” is not Laurent.
Sarah, I'll take care of this, so get ready for the magic. I need as much magic as I can. Call Eliza and make sure she can shoot anytime. "
We'll take care of Reurus, won't we? Let me do it!
It was difficult in Meer, but with Reurus, we could cross each other with Laurent. In the meantime, Sarah decided that she should accumulate magic and take down Laurent.
No, I want to get rid of him too, but it's not. I don't know how long till we get there, but there's a big slime coming up, so shoot him. "
Yes!...... yes? Oh, I'm sorry. Did you hear me wrong? Did I just hear a big slime?
It's about 50 melts of slime... maybe it's getting bigger. The magic is getting closer, so just be prepared. "
While measuring the time, Reurus gave Sarah instructions in the Mindset Call. We don't have time to see each other again and speak up, but it's probably after we take down the enemy and the slime.
"... I don't want to do it if it's hard. Are all Gregorian priests like that?
"Oh, you finally told me the truth. I'll take a compliment."
You may keep the blade in place instead of words, but considering fighting the slime, you should try to keep the wear as low as possible. Laurent answers with a small laugh when Reurus throws a word.
"So? You're not naming me?
Reurus patrolled slightly in response to the inquiry. But he accompanied Gilba, who was famous not only for Mataroi, but also for Gregorianism. It seems to be known that he lives in the abandoned city of Laval just by looking into it a little.
"Mid-level adventurer, Reurus. My buddies call me" The Monster Eater. "
Still, the name of the abandoned city of Laval fell on the ground. It was fine to say the exact name of the cod, but I had trouble waking up when the place was attacked by giving out the name of the place known to Reurus.
"An adventurer... well, that's fine, but intermediate or lower? Hahaha, this is a funny joke. How long have you been an adventurer so good that he could fit in intermediate?
Laurent's reaction was skeptical, even though he told the truth. Like I said, I just heard an interesting joke.
"And 'Monster eater'... it's a great nickname for an adventurer. What have you eaten lately? Please tell me."
Throw words at each other while holding them back with eyes and small movements. They spoke lightly to each other, as if they were friends they couldn't care less about.
"Slime"
――――
Unexpectedly, against Laurent, who was silent in such a state, Reurus continued his words by folding them.
"I chopped off the frozen guy, shredded him out, and swallowed him whole, so I don't know if I could say I ate him. The flavor is so-so... I don't know if I can't eat it, but I want seasonings. It's like they're chewing on tough water."
I recovered enough magic, but I swallowed the word. You don't have to talk that far. Because Laurent is not a friend, but an enemy.
"... uh, I see. I thought you were human, but was it a monster who could use" change "... I'm still immature... hmm? But I remember hearing about monsters eating slime... when I heard the slime 'change'... no, I also heard about eating together..."
Laurent, who heard Reurus's words, seemed to be confused about something that didn't fall apart. Reurus' face was too serious for jokes and laughter.
"What are you doing? Hey, Reurus, what are you doing? Isn't it because Reurus rode on the slime?
I didn't have anything else to eat. You can't help it, right?
Didn't you think that slime could be eaten with "no choice"?!
It's Sarah who puts a snack in "Idea Call", but if there was something else to eat as a revulsion, she wouldn't eat the slime.
"What's this kid called? It's kind of chaotic." I don't like it. "
His name is Neddy, and he saved my life. Please let me talk about the other details later. We don't have enough time.
The conversation with Sarah was there, and Reurus ran into Laurent. Laurent, who was killed by the stripped Reurus, also responded and raised the “war.”
"Oops, it's like burning to death. This is the first time I've had a hard time identifying monsters."
"This is the first time I've been treated like a monster... and I'm just a little bit of a foolish person."
"... no one eats slime so delicious. Well, maybe it's yota."
Rather, it's just a gesture to say yes.
With such Laurent's murmuring, Reurus swallowed the objection. I realized that it was pointless to spend words here, as it seemed that the "evidence” would soon come across Lake Mersena.
(I'd like to remind Jilba-san to be vigilant if possible.....)
I try to move my gaze so that I don't see any gaps in Laurent, but Jilba is still bumping into Canna from the front.
I don't know what kind of skill is possible, but I'm holding down Kanna with my bare hands, who can attack with two swords. The blade, which is shaken endlessly vertically and horizontally, is played, diverted, and never touched the body.
Conversely, it seems that there is no gap to counterattack with the “so far” story, and Kanna is also alive. What happens if I disturb my focus by speaking up here?
(The magic of the slime... a little... no, this is...)
Feeling the magic of the slime, Reurus frowned. I wonder if it's because we pulled apart due to the difference in travel speed, or if it's still a long way off. Like when I first felt the magic of the slime, it felt like a thin magic drift.
However, Reurus felt uncomfortable.
The magic of the slime is definitely approaching. Because the magic that I felt was gradually getting stronger, there's no doubt about it.
"I can't afford to lose my mind while we're killing each other. Anything that bothers you... hmm?
Laurent laughs at Reurus for changing his expression. However, I looked sideways at Lake Mersena to see if I noticed any signs of the magic of the slime similar to Reurus.
"... you just said you ate a slime. I can't take it down....."
Reurus does not answer the question. I can't afford to answer precisely.
Reurus jumps backwards to avoid closing the gap, then looks at Lake Mersena with his eyes narrowed to look away.
― ― A slime close to “100 meters” was shown on the surface of Lake Mersena, which is still a distance away.
