Hakai no Miko

"What the hell, that kid. Ha!

Zoog went into the tent where he was redeemed for a break, and cursed. Fangs, shoulders heavily up and down, and rough breaths. Such is precisely the angry beast itself.

And the brethren of his family did not fear, but watched far away.

From among such compatriots, Zoan, with honey citrus hair, advanced. Among the bent men, whose heads and two minutes are small, that Zoan is like a girl from a slightly swollen chest of armor.

"Uncle! Please calm down."

Zoog's frenzy stopped perfectly in the voice of a girl stretched out without fear.

"Shrew."

The girl's name, called Shru, is Kraga Bunuka Shru.

She's Zoog's niece.

He is the child of a distant sister of age and is only 8 years different from Zoog. For this reason, Zug is more of a girl who treats her like a sister than a niece.

"My mother said so. My uncle became a chief, and from that responsibility I began to think hard, but the roots were simple boneless. He'll be out in no time, so I'll scold him then."

Zoog, whose older, separated sister replaced her mother at an early age, still has no head up for her sister. When the sister's words were heard, Zoog slapped himself in the face with a pimple.

"Not at all. Not on my sister."

Zoog laid back on the spot.

One of his immediate compatriots makes a pre-prepared cup of tea and serves it to Zoog. Zoog sighed loudly as he sighed it in one breath, still exhaling the feeling of wildness in himself.

So finally calmed down, Zug asks Schull.

"From what you've seen, how was he?

"Though entertaining, that's the warrior who beat my uncle. Even in the distance, I felt its strength as a twinge."

"I'm not talking about Gallum."

They dig up unpleasant memories and Zoog gets grumpy.

"So who is it about?

"You know, a human kid named Soma."

"It's not enough to take. I don't understand Lord Gallam's idea of using such a person heavily. Not to mention" you under the umbilical "and other insane shacks!

To the reaction as expected, Zoog leaks a smile.

"Everyone will come and go like you think. You're right, he just looks like an old man who's not enough to take it. But Gallum tried to use it heavily, and your son made it 'You Under the Umbilical'. This is bullshit."

Zoog had a distant eye somewhere.

"It's a shrug. I would have pushed my fellow countrymen away and covered the village with wooden walls."

Shru nodded.

That's the story of a time when Zoog was still a chief.

Suddenly Zug cut a tree from a nearby mountain and said he would build a high fence around the village with it.

Zoan, originally a people of the plains, had a strong sense of refusal to be covered with walls around the village, and a great deal of opposition arose. If he did poorly, Zug got nothing from the fact that his sister, who was married to him, could have been dragged down from the seat of the chief, worked and her husband's house turned to Zug's support.

"The proud Zoan does human impersonation," he said.

I remembered the time and had a bitter laugh.

"I believe that Zoan will be destroyed by humans."

"Uncle...!

Only the chief who keeps the fate of the clan, the word is not light.

"In order for Zoan not to be destroyed, we must change! You have to abandon the old Zoan way of fighting and learn something new! It has to change! Even if that's how humans fight!

That was why a fence was built around the village.

But Zoog didn't know, but that was a terrible similarity to what Garam once said when he saw the burned mountain.

"Restrict yourself to Zoan's pride and don't count on other clans who fear change! It is me and my Claw Clan who bind all Zoan to destroy man and build Zoan's paradise in his fatherland!

Zug squeezes his right fist, lifted to the front of his face.

As if to grab something that just looks like him there.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

"I didn't think it was going to be that much noise"

Instead of reflecting, Gallam is getting a headache to Shemr, who pleasantly tells him.

"Um... Mr. Gallum. I didn't know, but I'm sorry I got into a lot of trouble."

Towards the gallum, the Ethereal Horse bows his head deeply.

It's like a man going to his lover's father to get his consent to marry him. At this age, I think of something I realized that I don't know what fate is like to be able to have an experience like this.

But by contrast, Gallum gives it back lightly.

"No. It's not about Soma apologizing"

"Right, right. It's not about apologizing!

Yes, even though Shemr makes tea, Gallam peels his fangs and intimidates him.

"I hear that Soma is a 'dropper'. You wouldn't even have known what" You Under the Umbrella "was. I know it came from this idiot."

She tells me she's an idiot, and before Shemr, who tries to eat and hang again, her grandmother cracks and goes in.

"But it's Gallam. It's never all bad."

"What do you mean, ma'am?

"Even though Shemr is a sleeping pisser, he is a son of God's grace. I don't have a hand in not using this."

And I said, "I don't need a sleeping piss!" Your wife ignores Shemr complaining.

"I have a good idea. I've already hit my hand, so I'll be here soon."

Timely there, from beyond the cover of the entrance to the room, I could hear a small cough that looked good in good taste.

"Ooh. I've been waiting for you. Come inside, please."

It was Schnupa, the witch-headed sister of the "family of eyes", who came in with the permission of her mother.

"This is Master Shunupa."

When Garam corrects his residence, he bows his head to Shunupa.

"What the hell, for what? Could it have been something wrong?

"No. All the offerings are grateful for the hospitality of the Fang Clan. Your sister called me here."

The old lady, who gathered everyone's gaze, laughed nicely.

"First of all, I'd like to ask Master Shunupa to confirm Shemr's engraving."

Only then can Shunupa perceive her grandmother's intentions and flaunt her face all the time.

"I see. Thank you. - Your son. I'm afraid we'll check the engraving."

"Oh. I don't mind."

Shemr tries to take off his chest armor on the spot.

"Look, guys, keep your back!

The old lady threatens her with fangs, and the Ethereal Horse and Gallum turn back in panic.

"Then, your son. Excuse me, sir."

Shunupa says no so, then pulls the hairs off Shemru's left breast and makes sure there is an engraving.

"Sure, let me take a look. Undoubtedly, Master Shemr is your son."

And the old lady, who nodded satisfactorily many times, asked Shunupa even more.

"So, Master Shunupa. I'd like you to check the other engraving."

"One more thing, is it? Has anyone chosen a new son?

"It would be quicker for you to look at it than I say. Soma, take that bowl off me."

After confirming that Shemru had put his armor back on, the pale horse who was facing back hesitated slightly (cum), but as my grandmother told me, I removed the bowl roll.

Once that happened, Shunupa's eyes opened wide open.

"No way, this is...!

With a shuddering hand, he gazes at the engraving, as if to miss even the slightest falsehood when he pays off his forehead on the Ethereal Horse's forehead and hands on his forehead.

"Aura! Magurna-Aura! Magurna-Aura!

Schnuppa raised her voice like a scream.

"... was it still a mistake"

When Shnupa returns to me to the voice of the old lady, she is ashamed of her exposed ugliness.

"I'm very sorry for your loss. Especially the disrespect of working for Aura's son. I apologize for lying down."

As Shnupa lowers on her knees, she flinches, trying to throw her body out on the spot. Besides, the pale horse panicked.

"Please don't. I don't think so!

"Thank you for your generosity, Aura's son."

Finally looking up, Shnupa tricks his wife when she makes a pranky look.

"Sister. You were going to get me involved from the start."

"What the hell is that?"

To the woman who blurted in the sky, Schnuppa spilled a small laugh.

"Okay, sister. We support Aura's son and Fang's family."

"Ooh! Is that true?!"

To Schnuppa's unexpected offer, Garam raised his voice of joy.

It is comforting that the [family of eyes] who grabbed the sacrifice turned to support me.

"The Son of God the Beast makes the Son of Aura 'You under the umbilical'. I guess this is fate too. As one of the witches of the Eye Clan who watches over destiny, I'd like to show you everything."

"Thank you from me too."

Shemr stares satisfactorily at the pale horse who says so and deeply bows his head to Shunupa to thank him. Then in the palm of your left hand, punch your right fist in a passing.

"Now all that's left is the claw clan."

"As for the Banukka-boys and..." I see Shemru all the time. "One word from your son will suffice."

"Is that okay with you?

Shnupa smiles bitterly at Shemru, who wonders with a true face.

It was a little pitiful about Banukah, who was so blatantly selling himself in, but was not at all aware of it.

"When that happens, the problem is with the Claw Clan and Zoog."

Thinking about how to persuade that crude clueless house, Gallum couldn't help but lean between his eyebrows.

"Isn't it quicker than persuasion for The Fierce Fang to sign up even in a duel and let you hear what he says when he stops beating?

As Shemr says, when Zoan's warriors have a conflict of opinion, adding a piece by winning or losing a duel is something that remains.

But Gallum shook his head sideways.

"I'm not sure I'm going to win against him, fangs."

Whatever the skill of a mountain knife, as it once was, Zoog would use every hand if it were also a duel. Beating it is a difficult undertaking.

"Absolutely! Isn't there a way to talk about that crude clueless place?"

To Shemr's words, the Zoans on the spot were uniformly silent.

But only one pale horse in it was concerned about something else.

I got lost, but to borrow everyone's wisdom here, I said goodbye and what I felt.

"I feel like a person named Zoog is a lot different from what I was hearing"

As far as hearing from Garam and Shemr, Zug was what he called a crude man who wouldn't think about later.

But to the Ethereal Horse, Banukah, who stood up first and strangled him when he was introduced, looked more like a single cell.

In comparison, Zoog was surprised, but it looked like he was seeing how other clans would react, not just the Ethereal Horse.

Plus Zoog really makes me stand in anger and wonders if it's something that stops me from legging just because Gallum called me off.

If you were really mad, wouldn't you walk away without working on it even if Gallum called it off?

Also, even if I stopped my leg and then appealed to everyone who was on the spot as well as Gallum, I seemed to smell frigid when I calmly thought about it.

"But is that what that Zoog is thinking?

Shunupa greets Garam, who smiles bitterly at him for saying so.

"Zug Boy is a crude kid who does rely on his power. But if you become the chief who keeps one family, you cannot remain crude from its heavy responsibilities. That's what they think, isn't it, Gallum boy?

Once, when Gajeta insisted hard on reclaiming the village, Galam, who had spoken of the weight of the chief's responsibilities, could say nothing.

Gallum knew with his own hands that the weight of the responsibility he bore was to grow people.

Ever since you became a chief, you must always think about your family. My horizons were wider than they were when I was fighting as one warrior at a time, and I was starting to look ahead.

Now that it has happened, I am only ashamed that I was a fool who was imprisoned only at the moment, pressing to kick human beings with every thing that happened to my father, who was a chief.

Not even myself, not long after he succeeded the chief yet, yes.

Gallum admonished himself that he could not see lightly about Zug, who had carried the responsibility of a chief long before himself.

"After all, Zoog really wants to work with us, doesn't he?

If you don't think about it that way, instead of leaving the venue for consultation to show you an attitude of rebellion against the Ethereal Horse, I would rather not understand Zoog's behavior in appealing his claims to other clans.

"But Soma. Then you'd honestly offer to cooperate, wouldn't you?

"No, it's not. It's a fang."

Garam denies Shemr's idea under a word.

Schnuppa told me, and Garam tried to read Zoog's thoughts in a position to say the same chief.

"If you were in the opposite position with me, you might have done the same thing. After successfully dropping the fort and reclaiming the plain, the realm of the family must be defined again. At that time, Soma's remarks would by no means be able to be gratuitous. It is highly likely that its soma and closest family members will get the widest realm in the plain. As someone who keeps a family, it can never be taken lightly."

The breadth of the realm of the clan in the plains is not merely an indication of power. It is the foundation of the family life and is directly linked to the subsequent development of the family. Every clan has made a leap toward gaining a wide area for every palm.

"I see. As for Zoog, you can't even want to work with us if you don't pull us apart or break in"

There, a pale horse opened his mouth.

"Mr. Gallam. I'm telling you in advance, I want to treat every family equally."

As for the Ethereal Horse, this was something I could never give way to.

I don't know what it really feels like to be a pale horse who grew up in Japan, which is made up of almost mono-ethnic peoples, but in modern times I often saw news of civil wars and conflicts caused by rivalries between ethnic groups living in the same area. For this reason, it was easy to imagine for the Ethereal Horse that favouring certain clans would become a major problem later.

Especially now, when Zoan has to fight in unison against a man who wins by force.

The Ethereal Horse, who would command it, had to be clear in his attitude of saying equal treatment for all his clans.

"That's my 'you under the umbilical'!

Shemr praises it immediately.

I could understand what the Ethereal Horse said, although it was a slightly frightening gallam to the appearance of my sister, who was totally in love with the Ethereal Horse.

But even if we say so, the rest of the family will not believe. Either way, we're not going to talk about not convincing Zoog first. "

What Gallam says is also best.

"If you're Zoog, why don't you lie down or try to provoke me?

"Son, I think you should stop doing that. Zug Boy will be used to those arrangements since he was a mess. Especially now I'm wary of the Fang Clan, so I thought it would be counterproductive."

"So what does Master Shunupa think we should do?

To Shemr's inquiry, Shunupa often thought about it before saying:

"Instead, isn't it good enough to do it?

To the answer, the Ethereal Horse thought.

In the forthcoming discussions, the Zugs will undoubtedly be coming up against whether the Ethereal Horse is worthy of trust or not. As I also experienced during the Fang Clan, the Ethereal Horse understood that his appearance was insulting rather than gaining the trust of Zoan's warriors.

Still, in the Fang Clan, I was able to persuade the warriors because I was the son of Aura and, above all, because of the support of Shemr, my son.

However, no matter how much Shemr is your son this time, it will be difficult for the opposing clan to persuade him. At least Zoog doesn't seem to follow his promises just because he's your son.

Then, as Shunupa put it, Ethereal Horse's feelings inclined toward the idea that he might want to show off his achievements and let him say yes.

"Mr. Gallam. How many of you can fight in the Fang Clan right now?

"Right. Right now, maybe 60 people. I gave him some urgent wolf smoke, and the scattered clans are returning, so if you wait, there will still be more."

The Ethereal Horse conceived as he let his gaze wander into the universe.

"This time, I wonder if that's enough..."

"This time?"

"Yeah, I think I'll do this fort attack just for the Fang Clan."

Everyone kept an eye on what the Ethereal Horse said.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

Then it was time to resume the consultation while we were considering the proposal of the Ethereal Horse, so Schnupa was to return to his own family once.

The old lady who came to drop it off, anticipating that there were no more people around her, asked Shunupa.

"Master Shunupa. How can you see what the Son of the Goddess of Death and Destruction has done to us Zoan at this time?

It was for this question that my wife came all the way to see me off.

The old lady thought it was no coincidence that Ethereal Horse and Shemr met. The Ethereal Horse is not involved, but there must always be a hidden intention of the goddess Aura.

"Probably...... Of the seven races that live on this continent, it seems that we, Zoan, are the ones who have been placed in the greatest predicament."

That's because Zoan's living area is on the plain. Securing that food is urgently needed to support a rapidly growing population as human forces grow stronger. And it was Zoan who lived there that caused the greatest damage as a result of spreading the sphere of power into a plain suitable for growing cereals such as wheat, the staple food of humans.

"If Aura is a goddess who seeks death and destruction, I wonder if her purpose is to help the weakest species and discuss the strongest."

"Again, do you think so..."

"Yes, because it will produce more death and destruction…"

"You say Soma was sent down to this world to help Zoan discuss humans...?

"Yes, but only on a personal basis"

But the old lady had come to the same view.

If that is correct, following the Ethereal Horse will be Zoan's way to survive.

"But beware of that son of death and destruction"

Shunupa said, lurking his voice all the time.

"I said to help Zoan to discuss humans, but not necessarily"

"That's what you say?

"Sure, it would be to make you consider humans. But that's not necessarily to help Zoan."

"What does Master Shunupa want to say...?!"

"Yes, not only humans, but we Zoan may also be destroyed by the Son of Aura..."
