Ihoujin, Dungeon ni Moguru

<Chapter 5: Revenant> [01]

[01]

I pay the blood of the blade.

My emotions got on and I got a rough sword. I was worried about the blade spilling, but there was no damage to the blade. On the contrary, the luster of humans increased.

This is a business. It is a fine human slicing knife.

"No, no!"

Why did I upset my emotions?

Is it useless to ask the bodies of the five who rolled?

Did the feelings of the child change because of the rainfall and Haruna? Joke. I don't know anything about brat elsewhere. The oysters are dead somewhere in the city, but not anywhere in the world. Even adults are dead. Emotions are not disturbed by the death of others.

After that,

“……………”

This drum? I heard that everything is a dwarf.

No way.

Do you check the corpse just in case?

Pull out the pierced spear. There is no blood on the head or on the handle. With an odorless liquid like water.

I pulled out all the spears and opened the drum.

"What is it?"

The content is a complex mass of electronic components. There are tools in the stored arm. There are things that seem to be cultivation equipment, but there is no vital creature.

One thing I was worried about was a broken tank-like part. Some parts have been repaired with duct tape, and the liquid inside has run down and is empty.

"Ash"

"Don't come in the rain. Go back."

A little rain from the basement shows up.

"Go back. Wait in the basement until it's good."

"Well, I understand. There is a story."

The rain fell, but left Kantera. The cylindrical cantera rolls on its own and stops at my feet.

"It's a spirit"

A small arm raises his hand.

"Check if repair is possible. Please lift it up. "

"Is your friend?"

Speaking of which is similar.

Grasp the snow breeze of the self-proclaimed spirit and approach the open drum.

"Water-soluble brain and total loss. Backup device damaged. Repair and data extraction are not possible with the snow breeze function. Aircraft functions are not available. We recommend disposal. "

"Really"

That's a bit disappointing. I'm sorry for something.

"Weak, but a life reaction was detected."

"I know it"

It's really weak.

"Do you not help?

"It's useless. I don't help."

"But you can take care of the end"

"You should do it"

"For the sake of confidentiality, Yukikaze communicates only with certain people. You have a fragmentary but similar gene to a Shigure member. '

"Is it raining?"

"It's quite distant,"

What is that?

"It's faster than that. There is not much time left. "

"... Oh, I understand."

It's a bad job of looking after a dying child.

One of the dead children had a pale face and a shallow breath.

A good-looking boy. No, it's a bit fat. Speaking of which, other children are orphaned and do not seem hungry to live underground. That drum can be eating like a human. Or is it thanks to the rainfall?

"Shaved, do you hurt?"

"Who?"

Hollow eyes look at me.

The wound pierces the chest. It's close to my heart. Bleeding is also severe. It would be different if you were an advanced healer at this time, but you couldn't make it in time.

That's right now.

"Is there anything left to say?"

"... Miku-chan"

"Mikyu?"

Like the name of a beast.

"Take and go"

"Really"

If you are a beastman, you may want to live with a beastman. Not to say to the dying child.

"...?"

"Hmm?"

A bit of energy returns to the eyes. The last glow of light, just like a candlelight before it disappears.

"Old lady"

The boy's hand extends to me.

"King?"

"The boy seems to have reacted to your sword"

Whisper to me so that the snow breeze cannot be heard by the boy. I don't think confidentiality is going to be related to the dying boy.

"Why a sword?"

"King Lemuria used his sword to walk in the city with stealth. The children who witnessed it misunderstood the sword as a proof of the king. '

Do children yearn for it? The king isn't that bad.

That's why it fits me right now.

"Boy, what's your name?"

"Gull ... Gardland"

The boy answered firmly.

"It's a brave name, Gardland. I'm Ash Meld ----"

Please say "Ash [Urus La Tilt]". A formal noble name. '

Format. Shape is important.

"Ash-Urs-la-Tilt. Knight. Adventurer. Just king.

Hold the boy's hand. Still a warm hand. Your hands are getting cold.

"My, please, I"

"Yes, I'll give you just one."

"... When it comes, it's big, it's big. When it comes, it's an adventure .........."

The boy stopped his wish halfway and finally said,

"Help Mikyu-chan"

The light went out of my eyes.

Death that I saw many times. Just being a child is not uncommon.

"Heart arrest. died"

"Yes."

Close the boy's eyes before the meat becomes rigid. I crossed my arms and wiped my face with the sleeves of my clothes. That's all I can do.

That's about what a dead human can do.

That degree.

The squeezed fist sounds.

My body sweats lightly. Breathing is also rough. The feel of sand on chewed teeth. An unknown thing inside is about to explode.

“Ash temporary worker. Your heart rate is abnormal. It seems to secrete a lot of adrenaline. "

"no problem"

No problem now.

"What is this?"

"Sigure, come back"

"What!

The rain has come out.

He tried to hide, but saw the corpse of a child.

"Go back!"

"You!"

"That's not it!"

"T"

I shouted at my instinct.

"Sigure squad. These children were killed by this beastman. Ash Temporary Worker

I kicked off the snow breeze.

"Shut up, please!"

"Is everyone dead?"

"......... except for the beastman"

It was troublesome.

"Why?"

"There's no reason. Heme kills the beastman for no reason. These kids have fallen victim to their remorse."

"That's why!"

I don't know.

"It's such a world! Understand! Take it! You're a smart child!"

"I don't know!"

"Swallow even if you don't know! Don't vomit! These unacceptable things are filling the world! You will feel nauseous now. You will not be able to digest it. I have to get used to nature to live. Unlike these, you have tomorrow. You have a family.

I was full of words.

"So"

Words do not follow from there.

"Let's go home, Shigure. As Ash says, you can't do anything. '

"is there"

Yes, Shigure says.

"Cremate. Burn the rice with us. You'll be able to eat more delicious food in heaven, because everyone said my food was" delicious. "

"You can go home, I am alone"

"I hate it. I'll do it alone."

A stubborn guy.

"I can help the snow breeze with a little power. If it's a corpse, it's not a problem to touch it.

He kicked the approaching snow breeze again.

The crematory wood came from a nearby ruin.

"This place is a shattered flame religious temple. They seem to be afraid of punishment and do not touch building materials. Let's use it. "

I cut down the collapsed wooden pillars to make them necessary for cremation.

Carry and bring back the corpses of the children. A little further away, the corpses of the beasts I killed.

"Are they?"

"I don't know these gods, but I killed a flaming kid.

I don't know if it's kind or strict.

"Do you know this story? People are not dead when they die ---

"Shut up"

"I understand."

I silenced the snow breeze.

It suddenly becomes talkative and gets in the way.

Silently prepare for the rain and cremation. The rain was shedding tears. However, his expression did not cry. I didn't watch. There are no gentle words for children.

"According to the teachings of flame religion, everything ends up being drunk by flame and disappearing."

"So what?"

Yukikaze opens her mouth even though she says she should be silent.

No, are they fit by mouth?

`` Let's talk about the point that there is security in death ''

"Don't say the tip first."

"I try to ease my mental distress"

"Try harder, nothing at all."

"I understand."

Ready soon.

The corpses were lined up on a crematorium made by two outsiders. The children's personal belongings in the basement were also put together. Broken toys, missing combs, used wooden swords for children and wooden shields. Shigure rice is also in the container.

I thought about putting a mysterious drum, but that wasn't going to burn, so I had to think of another disposal.

"Is there something last?"

Light the torch with Shokoishi.

"Absent"

When I hear the rainy words, I put the torch.

The fire slowly spreads. After a while, it became a big bonfire.

"Sigure, I ----"

"Don't say"

I couldn't keep saying that I was dead.

"Don't say that."

"Sorry"

My chest is ruffled by the crying face of the rain. Even though it was not a shame, Shigure covered his face. It's a shame to be impressed by death.

The fire shimmers and the sound of firewood explodes.

Heat stroking face and cold wind hitting ears. It's snowing again today. The night will be cold.

"......... Ash"

"What?"

"Weird thing, don't you think?"

"Relieve. I'm not thinking."

I don't think.

Now I am a beast of emotion. This fiery beast.
