A Chronicle of Life in a Different World
Episode 276: Ruvillia Part 3
The armor worn by Reurus is an exquisite piece made by Dwarf's hands.
Though inferior to Calvin, who forged Dragon Slash, Dwarves who prefer alcohol and blacksmith to three meals made it from quality ingredients.
Hikudri and Feilong leather on the surface, dwarf refined steel, and huge scratch skin to absorb the shock applied inside. The three-layer combination of these materials is extremely robust and can be easily received by linear slashes and pricks.
The arrow suddenly flew through the rearview's nails.
The severe pain felt at the elbow tip of the left arm and the impact that the left arm could be cut as it is. Reflexively sheltering Ruvillia, Reurus loses his posture and his thoughts are likely to be severely disturbed by severe pain.
Ugh!
The moment the arrow was caught and the severe pain ran through the brain, Reurus used 'caloric release'. And if you don't understand the situation, push down Ruvillia with her eyes round.
"Wow!? And suddenly what!?
Enemy! Stay down!
I can hardly feel the pain after using "calorie release", but at the same time, I realize that there is a sharp killing intent.
Reus pushed Ruville down according to his instincts, but within a few moments, the arrow that flew back to where Ruville had been sitting - again, where he had his head - stabbed him.
"Chi! Sarah!
"Sorry! I can't see either! It's raining and it's hard to understand, but there's still no heat around!
Sarah was sweet to Reurus, but she wasn't completely distracted by the camp. I've allowed monsters to attack before.
As a result, Sarah was always searching for the surrounding heat source, but there was no perceptible heat source.
"Mr. Reurus! Mr. Ruvillia!"
Seeing Reurus sheltering Ruvillia, Meer moved quickly. He immediately stood up by grasping his favourite hammer and stopped to protect Reurus and Ruville.
"Meer! Front!
"Eh... wow!?
When Reurus cautioned, Meer noticed the arrow approaching her and flew with a hammer. However, the “weight” of the arrow that was played revealed a voice of surprise.
"Ooh, oh... what arrow!?
Meer's arrows are shorter, thicker, and have smaller wings to stabilize the trajectory than those used for regular bows. However, the whole arrow was made of metal, or there was a shock enough to numb Meer's hand, which was played with a hammer.
The arrow stuck to Reurus' left arm is similar, but if he hadn't killed some power with his nails, his arm might have been cut a thousand times. It was shocking and powerful enough.
"Mr. Collard!
"I'm fine... nnnnh!
Shouting at Collard, who is supposed to be with the horse, the metal hits each other and returns a reply. Apparently Collard was also shot, but he managed to fly it.
Reus stood up hiding from Ruvillia and grabbed the Dragon Slash that was standing beside him. Then, in response to a slight wind chip, he struck the great sword to respond to the killing intent directed at him.
(Eh... Meer's right, it's heavy!
I tried to play the flying arrow with the “belly” of "Dragon Slash", but there was quite a shock coming from my hand. I don't want to let go of the sword because I use "Caloric Release", but if I strike a living human directly, my torso is likely to cry apart.
But that's all. Anyway, if you hit by surprise, you can play without a problem if you hold the sword for more than a revus.
Even though arrows fly twice or three times, they bounce off by swinging the "Dragon Slash". The night and bad weather make my vision worse, but I can afford to deal with a revulsion that uses' calorie release '.
…… I feel uncomfortable with my body....)
But unexpectedly, I felt uncomfortable with my body. Your body feels a little harder to move.
“That feeling” is memorable, and Reurus looks at his left arm without exposing the gap.
"Is this... poison?
"--Your name is Answer. No, no, that's a big deal if you can still move that far."
There is an immediate response to Reurus's words. Reurus turned his gaze, and there was someone jumping over the 'station' fence.
He wears a coat to hide his face, but his voice is low. There was no clearance to jump over the fence and land, and the movement was smooth despite the rain.
(Bandits... no. I don't even think you're a knight like Mr. Collard....)
It's just a movement that I remember seeing. By the way, I knew how to use poison.
Reurus adjusts his position to cover Ruvillia while still looking at the identity of the opponent. As far as his voice is concerned, he's not holding anything in his hand. I didn't see any bows that could shoot the arrows earlier.
"What do you think? There's only one thing I'd like to negotiate."
While saying so, the man pulls a small bottle out of his pocket. And I shaken it gently so that it looked like a revulsion.
"You'd better take less trouble, and you'd die too, wouldn't you? It seemed like I was distracted, but the reaction that prevented me from shooting at first sight... I didn't mean to poison a handcrafted person like you. This is the antidote."
…………
Reurus silently pulled the "Dragon Slash" out of his sheath and began to narrow his distance from the man. At the same time, he made a "thought call" to Sarah.
Protect Ruvillia with Meer. And Eliza and Neddy... wake Annemone up if you can and keep an eye on the surroundings. Where are the other enemies?
"... sorry, Reurus. As always, I can't feel the heat... I can't feel the heat from him, so maybe there's some way to deceive him."
When Sarah answers, Reurus leaks a voice of suspicion in her heart.
(No fever? I don't suppose the corpse is moving... but I don't feel uncomfortable with the doll of "that woman”...)
Behind Reurus was Rebecca, who manipulated the Magic Doll. However, the doll imitating Rebecca also had a fever when it was previously engaged, and if it was slashed, it was bleeding.
(I wonder if that jacket is suspicious... or if Sarah can't feel the heat because it's wet with rain, or if it's "magic equipment"...)
I have some questions, but you can think about it later. The man shrugged his shoulders with a grandiose gesture as to what he thought of Reurus in between.
"Give me the lady in the back and I'll give you this antidote. Besides, you shouldn't move any further. If you move, the poison turns and the antidote turns."
"Well, die."
The man's intentions seem to be Ruvillia - an enemy to the guard Reurus.
As if the slow motion until then were a lie, Reurus runs with all his might. The ground looks wet and slippery due to the rain, but Collard is on the lookout for rainy fights.
Instead, he slipped and moved, instantly catching the man in front of him.
"Ha!?
Although the man opened his eyes to Reurus' actions, he instantly removed the dagger from the cuffs of both arms. And when I crossed it to catch the blade of "Dragon Slasher", it was bounced off without defying the impact.
The man's dagger is a business or has not been cut despite a meeting with Dragon Slasher. Still, Reurus' assault caused him to collapse and his feet were floating off the ground.
Reurus does not miss the gap and runs to take down the man. Nothing happens when you float in space unless you use either Class Magic.
However, the man whose Reurus was slashed could not feel the magic. They may be hiding their magic, but it's not a bad opportunity.
Disconnecting the body of a man floating in the sky and smashing his organs - sooner rather than that, Reus noticed the killing air and the sounds of flying. He waved "Dragon Slash" straight to the side.
Apparently an ally fired an arrow to support the man. Reurus cuts off metal arrows at bullet-like speeds, turning his gaze from his feet to a man who lands and positions himself.
"Ugh... this is unexpected. Even so, I didn't think the Adventurer would risk his life to protect the Guardian."
(... do you know me as an adventurer?
Reurus frowned in response to the man's words.
Anyone who knows adventurers well will know that Reurus is an adventurer with the equipment he wears. But the man's words sounded like he had “other convictions."
A man lowers his hips slightly when he holds his dagger with both hands.
"Absolutely... this is another nasty job. Maybe I'll let you stick until you die of poison. [M] If you just collapse, I think I can handle it."
Did the man show himself alone, confident that he could manage the Reurus alone, or did he think he would agree to negotiate? It looks like backup crews are lurking away, but Reurus frowns at the hardened posture.
"Ahh... this is it?"
Reurus just turned to his left arm and didn't say he had noticed. Then, holding the "Dragon Slash" with just your right hand, you bite into the body of the arrow.
The arrows are slightly thicker to keep the center of gravity in place, but there is no "return”. Therefore, when the arrow sucked by the teeth is pulled out by force, it is thrown up toward the ground.
The arrow came out and bled out of the wound, but Reurus didn't mind. Rather, when the poison comes out just right, I lick my own blood.
"My tongue just tingles, poison doesn't taste that good... I hear the spice of the spice is painful, but do you think poison can also be a condiment? You know what?"
I don't need it because I got some delicious spices recently, but Reurus grips the "Dragon Slash" with both hands while adding words such as "…".
It was a fairly clear-cut realus, but I wonder if he was stunned by seeing the arrows pulled out without hesitation, and the man never attacked.
"I heard that this guy... is an adventurer again, but was it a kind of monster 'change' or a subhuman..."
Still, the man regained his mind and held his dagger. There was no sign of any room there, and he was on maximum alert to the revus.
In response to such a man's reaction, Reurus frowned greatly. Still, take a forward stance that complaining is not a word, but should be punched directly into your body with a sword.
"For the record, you're not going to use spices to eat that guy, are you?
However, I tried to stop the revulsion and the voice rang.
Reurus caught in the voice saw Collard dragging two humans closer, thinking he was fainting.
