Kage no Eiyuu no Nichijou-tan

"We'll be on our way to the scene soon. Don't stop and go back to the dorm immediately."

Mr Schren told us in a state of impatience.

"We're coming too."

Elysia says in a strong tone.

"But...."

"I still remember this on my arm. Isn't that why you invited me to the Knights?

Elisia has already received an offer from the Knights of Phosphorous.

Members of the Knights of Phosphorous, including Shren, must know what Elicia is capable of.

"... okay. Then follow me."

"Shu, Shu Ren!? Involving students in battle!?

These two aren't amateurs.

That's how Mr Schren saw us.

"Elicia is a finger-pointing swordsman who inherited Gallia's former commander's sword. And... the boy over there. You were a student who put a dagger in Commander Lauren during the joint exercise."

You're talking about the mock battle you played during the joint exercise. Sure, I put a fat knife in a man named Lauren, the Knights of Phosphorous.

"Lord Tweet. I've heard of you personally from the Commander.... may I count you as a fighter?"

"... at least I promise not to get caught up in this."

That said, I slightly shaken the "sniper wand" on my shoulder.

Covering from a long distance will not be easy unless it is misfired. I'm not going to shoot you by mistake at all.

Okay, let's get to the scene.

Shren activates Toughness to start moving.

Me and Elicia went on very quickly.

"This is where the transmission broke down!

The passers-by shouted closer to screaming at us.

As you continue to run, you hear the noise gradually. He crossed the square and walked along a large road, passing by the people who were fleeing. There seems to be fighting all over the city.

At that time - I felt an unpleasant sign of stickiness from behind.

"Who is it?"

Stop and look back.

But no one answers my voice.

"Tweet...?

"... it looks like it was my fault."

Our priority now is to go to the crime scene and help the knights.

To avoid unnecessary confusion, I lied to Elisia and ran away again.

◇

"... I'm surprised."

Looking at the back of the runaway Tweet, the boy wiped the cold sweat from his temples with his hands.

"I didn't notice Elicia or the knights who were rumored to be the best talented women in the Heroics Department...."

Originally, I thought that the person called Tweet was not just a person because of its appearance. However, this reward changed from a hunch to a conviction.

He is probably as experienced as he is.

The goodness of intuition characteristic of those who set foot in the number of places tells the story.

"Don't feel bad.... I'm worried too."

The boy murmured as if he were excusing himself.

◇

"Is this...?!?

Arriving at the scene, Mr Schren spoke with dismay.

As the ruthlessly destroyed streets spread, several knights fell at their feet.

"Hey, are you okay?! What happened!?

"Shu, Captain Shren... that's what I don't understand either. Suddenly attacked while guarding the city. The inhabitants managed to escape... but I'm sorry, I couldn't catch the enemy..."

"What are the enemy's details?

"There's only one person... in a red jacket, hiding.... after they defeated us, they moved south."

The fallen knight speaks with a rough breath.

"Captain... be careful. Enemies are skilled."

"... it seems so."

Mr Schren nodded with a strange look.

There must be at least five knights down. If you only did this by yourself, you'll know you're pretty good at it.

Move south on alert so you can respond whenever attacked.

At that time, a rough pylon stood in front of him diagonally.

"Over there!!

Shren increases his speed.

Turning towards the pylon, I found a man wearing a bright red coat on the roof. I can't see my face because I'm wearing a deep hood, but I think it's a man because of his physical condition.

The Knights of Phosphorous! Surrender immediately! Or I'll catch you with my strength!!

Shren said with a blue line on her forehead.

Naturally, it was a formalistic statement. Mr. Shren has already pulled out his sword, and in the next moment, he strengthens his physical abilities and approaches the man with "Toughness".

"I'll cover you!!

The Knights of Kintetsu's gem, Salia, also pulled out her sword and followed Schren.

At that moment, five flames appeared around the man in the jacket. The flames that burn the atmosphere are turned into shelling and approaching two knights.

"What, how many of these shells are there!? You're shooting this alone!?

"Khhh!?

The two knights who were forced to retreat dispersed left and right.

Each shot is powerful. It's not a defensive force. The shelling that was fired punctured the building, flashly decked the ground and sounded a roar that split his ears.

"Salia, are you all right?!

"I'm sorry, I took a little...!

Salia tells her in agony.

The left arm was bleeding heavily. It's a terrific shelling to have so many wounds just from a loot.

"... Elicia, can you help me with the vanguard?"

I told Elicia to pull out the sword.

"The entrance exam for heroics... the same as Professor Farnese."

Copy that.

Elysia nodded with an unbelievable smile.

"--I 'm going out front!!

Elysia approached the man by the side of Shren and the others who were getting back in shape.

When a man lays his hand above his head, a lump of flame reappears.

"Shh!!

Elisia flashes her sword faster than the shelling.

The man instantly activated Toughness and quickly jumped to the roof of another building behind him. Elisia pursues them immediately without stopping the momentum.

With the two of us in sight, I set up Divine Hawk.

The magic inside the wand is compressed.

"Lord Elicia! Gunfire is coming!

Saria screams as she sees the flame swirling over the man's head again.

But sooner than the flame was thrown...

"--Slow"

A semi-transparent bullet was fired from Divine Hawk.

The bullet penetrates the universe at a speed beyond sight and punctures the flames above the man's head.

The moment - the flame mass collapsed and exploded violently.

"Well done!!

Immediately after the explosion, Mr. Schren rushed to the man.

The man was in a very bad position because he couldn't prevent the explosion earlier. Meanwhile, Shren and Elicia, two swordsmen are approaching.

To the swordsman approaching from left to right, the man opened his hands - he fired a shell from his palm.

"Hmm!?

It is too powerful to counter aggressively.

Both Shren and Elicia overturned and avoided the artillery fire. The aftermath of the shelling collapses the three-man scaffold building.

On the collapsing building, the man pointed his hand at Ms. Schren's head.

- Oh, no.

Both of them are completely disoriented. I can't deal with a chase right now.

I immediately loaded the second bullet and fired it on the chest of the man in the coat.

The man interrupts the pursuit and turns to us.

Gakin! I hear a violent clash.

The bullet was prevented by a translucent wall that appeared in front of the man.

Barriers (barriers) …… are they also five?

Shooting through that wall is not easy.

But I was able to make a gap. As the man unfolded the Barrier, Shren and Elisia stood up and retreated.

As the building collapsed and the dust danced, I stared at the man for a moment.

The man walks away with his bright red coat in the wind. Shren tried to follow him, but he stopped to see Saria fall on the street.

"... are you both okay?"

Mr Schren looked at me and Elisia and said.

Fortunately, we don't have any wounds. Shake your neck together.

"Those enemies may be agents from other countries.... if you were so skilled, you'd know your name. As the days of competition festivals and talks approach, the townships of this country are gathering in King's Landing. It could be an attack on them."

Shren says with a sharp face.

"I'm sorry, but the security around the campus has been going on for a while. Now that this has happened, we have to prioritize the protection of dignitaries."

We have no choice but to obey that decision.

I can't afford to escort us back long enough. After breaking up with the knights, Elicia and I will both return to the dormitory.

"Tweet, what's going on? I've been quiet for a while."

"... no"

With worried eyes, Elicia, I shake my head to show that there's nothing wrong.

I was thinking about the raider's purpose.

I can certainly see things like Shren this time... but I don't think so.

Agents may not only be targeting schools. Besides the Russian Empire, there may be countries that want to attack the kingdom. It is also possible that multiple organizations are plotting different schemes at the same time.

Considering the possibility, I don't have time for enumeration.

But if you just state the facts...

--In this case, the security of the school became poor.

The place where the raid took place is far from the school. The knights positioned near the campus will be turned over to your guards for a while.

An unexpectedly wide-ranging operation. But for that, the damage to the outsiders is enormous.

I don't think we should... leave him alone any longer.
