A Chronicle of Life in a Different World

Episode 198: Request for an Investigation Part 5

Kimira's neck fell off.

In an assault, the tail is slashed apart with a blade that is returned, and the neck of one of the remaining slashes fired in a razor-like trajectory is swooped high.

Even so, Kimira, if you don't slit her neck twice, she dies. Nevertheless, Reurus pushed deeply into the tip of the Dragon Slash near the heart to be careful, and tilted his neck just inside.

(... was Kimira this weak?

Was it because I was able to slit my neck one by one with my first surprise shot, or because I was somewhat injured in battle with the soldiers? Compared to the Kimira in Reurus' memories, the Kimira that we have just finished seems to be inferior to several orders of magnitude.

Was the Kimira that Reus fought for the first time strong, was the Kimira in front of him weak, or was the Reus stronger?

Kimira's body collapses with a dull, damp sound. And after a few seconds, the chopped head fell to the ground, and it made a damp sound again.

If the situation permits, I would like to try to swallow a broken body with a chopped neck, but it is not a situation where it is permissible now.

Apart from the other remaining Kimira, Reurus needs to be alert to his wary gaze.

(Well, if the adventurer jumps in all of a sudden, I'll be on my guard.)

The soldier's gaze also contains confusing colors, making it seem like he's wondering if he should see Reurus as an enemy. Although the soldiers did not point a sword at the reus, they were measuring time so that they could respond immediately if the reus was slashed.

"... who are you?

He asks with a low voice what the person in his position has to do. Reurus, who was questioned, was not particularly upset and answered looking towards the living Kimira.

"I am related to Spiritualism. I was on my way, but I heard a fight... and I thought it was unnecessary, but I came to the aid blade."

"Spiritualism...."

The sight of the soldiers diminishes slightly. Reurus, who felt it, whispered in his heart that he was not lying.

(Spiritual affiliates... guests are true. My client has nothing to do with spiritualism.)

He is a spiritual guest and walks with spirits worshipped by spiritualism. Originally it was a revus that I didn't want to be involved in religion, but now it's not a mistake to call it a party.

"... I see, that's what I mean."

But the soldiers nodded strangely convinced. Reurus looked at the soldier and wondered the other way around, but decided it would be convenient if he was less alert.

"Well, it would be helpful if you didn't ask me the details. For our part, the Kimira?

Even when asked about the details, there was no answer, but I thought it was a realuse, but I noticed a strange discomfort and raised my eyebrows.

(What, this... magic? Kimira did magic... no, no...?

Though I tried to assault the remaining Kimira, my intuitive vigilance stopped Reurus.

I couldn't feel it from the Kimira I just took - I took it before I could feel it, but I felt the magic of the Reurus drifting from the Kimira with two soldiers who could move.

I don't feel hostility or killing, so it's not to activate lightning magic. I don't think it's magic like "strengthening."

It may be because of your mind, but apart from the magic that Kimira has, you can still feel “another magic.”

That's strange - but while thinking about it, the soldiers who are at war with Kimira could be pushed out.

Therefore, when Reus immediately switched consciousness, he took a forward leaning position in charge of the "Dragon Slash". I'm not profound about magic or magic. Whatever happens, if you take it down, it's over.

Yes, I thought so.

"Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Kimila, who had two soldiers before, suddenly changed her movements. When the soldier bounced off without paying attention to the counterattack, he ran towards the carriage.

Eyes glisten brightly, chewing through easily penetrating teeth such as the human body, spreading saliva from the edge of the mouth and running through the ground with a roar.

He who notices it tries to manipulate the horse and move the carriage in a state of panic, but Kimira will arrive overwhelmingly faster than fleeing.

Though he couldn't get away from the guards and the soldiers, Reus thought that he should at least be ready to escape.

"- Shoot!

As Reurus screamed, Kimira ran away. Then, within a few seconds, a lightning strike hit Kimira.

It was lightning magic by Eliza, who kept her waiting in the woods to make it easier to escape.

Gruuu!?

Kimira screamed at the thunderbolt that fell from above. The movement toward the carriage in a straight line slows down and stalls significantly.

A powerful lightning bolt that could kill ordinary people, but Kimira is also a monster who deals in lightning magic. Although it was painful, it didn't seem more effective than slowing down the movement.

But that's enough. If the motion stops for just a few seconds or moments, we can catch up with it.

The instantly timed Reurus targeted Kimira's neck. With the "Dragon Slash" shaken, Eliza's lightning magic cut off Kimira's neck from the side - immediately before that, something moved at the edge of Reurus' sight.

"Hmm!?

Kimira, who is supposed to be numb and unable to move, is moving. The forelimbs, covered with a black-lighting outer shell, draw an arc to blow up from Reurus' neck.

"Ooooooooooooooo!

Kimira's neck is taken for ransom. Judging that instantly by an animal-like intuition, Reus twisted his body, forcibly changing the trajectory of the "Dragon Slash" and knocking the blade into Kimira's forelimb from the side.

A crushing, armored roar and a heavy impact on both arms. The "Dragon Slasher" blade, combined to intercept, shatters the outer shell of Kimira, which boasts an ore stain strength, and deflects the forelimbs.

However, playing it alone cannot be fatal. Reurus, whose upper body swimmed with each "Dragon Slash" by forcing him to play, was able to slash with the understanding that his posture would collapse further, or took a distance.

Gahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Rigid Kimira's arms were swinging as she stroked the body of such a revus. A numb “I shouldn't be able to move” kimira hits the opposite of the forelimb bounced by Reurus.

"Nh... this is OOOOO!

Even if you're wearing Dwarf's handmade armor, if you forgive a direct hit, you'll be able to take your ribs with you. Reurus uses his physical abilities raised by "caloric release" to pull his upper body forcefully, and swings down the "dragon slash".

A slash that cannot be stepped in and relies solely on the strength of its arms. The flash collided with Kimira's outer shell to feed on the blade, but the difference in momentum and weight was clear.

"Whoa!?

Reurus' foot leaves the ground and is forced to fly. Each Dragon Slash flies backwards in a trajectory of mountains.

(Damn it... I didn't mean to be alarmed.)

As the sight rotated around, Reurus murmured with his heart alone.

My hands are slightly numb due to the impact, but there is no physical pain because I avoided a direct hit. But Kimira, who was once defeated, is also defeated by individuals who would be inferior to Kimira at the time.

Kimira, once a fighter, was a terrible threat to the most elite people in the abandoned city of Laval, even if he sustained heavy wounds.

Such a Kimira is not included in the senior ranks, and you became slow because you fought against advanced monsters such as the Fire Dragon Vanille, the "Castle Collapse", and the "National Eater".

--That's impossible.

Reurus affirms that. Even lower monsters can kill humans with a single blow. It is impossible to be alarmed at such a monster. He is still hitting the armored Reurus high. It does not exist to be able to be alarmed.

Kimira, who beat Reurus to death, had irregular convulsions and stopped moving on the spot without chasing him. Eliza's lightning magic must be numbing her body. But how did you intercept the Reurus?

Reurus kills the spinning momentum when twisting his body in the air. Then I tried to land on the ground from my feet, but when I saw what was under my eyes, I pulled my cheeks.

What was present was a stalled carriage that could not escape after all. Your man looked up at Reurus with a poke-like face, but he didn't have time for that.

Reurus, who does not have the means to move freely in the air, lands on the roof of the carriage with the momentum that Kimira has beaten him to death.

A carriage is a type of carriage called a boxcarriage, unlike a front carriage where the reals have once been “loaded.”

Horses towing carriages stand on two feet, alert to monster raids, or the body is very sturdy. There are also windows for viewing the outside view, but it is small because it prioritizes ruggedness, and it uses metal to reinforce the body.

But the roof was different. Reuses that landed under gravity break through the roof and fall.

"Yikes!?

It seems that there are about four tatami mats, and when multiple people broke through the roof of the carriage and landed, a scream suddenly appeared as if it belonged to a woman.

I was afraid that Reurus, who heard the scream, had laid down the person on board, but there was no feeling that he had stepped on the person's body. Still, it's the same thing that destroyed the roof of the carriage, looking back with a cold sweat on his back.

"Lady, please step back."

There was a girl dressed as a luxury at first glance, and a woman in a maid's uniform who went out in front to protect such a girl.
