Konjiki no Moji Tsukai (Reboot)

64: Lillian's strength

"Whoa, come quickly, little thing."

I wonder if the yawning made you chicken.

"Gagagagagagagagagaga!"

The Ballon Bone Lizard screamed fiercely and flew over her with the red sphere that had emerged.

--Shuiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

They're coming straight at an incredible speed, ripping the air apart.

A direct hit won't hold you back. Still, Lily didn't smile and pointed her right hand at the sphere to see what she thought.

Then all of a sudden, it sounds like breaking the glass from above and something falls.

- Shit!

At that moment, a golden nail pierced the center of the flying sphere.

The shape of the nail is such a huge nail that it cannot be handled by ordinary people. It was stuck to the sphere and nailed to the ground.

The sphere that has stopped moving gradually collapses from the tip like sand.

What is it? So where the hell did you come from!?

The sun colour checks the direction in which the nails fly, that is, the sky, but it's covered with red clouds. There's nobody here.

Then I wondered who had stopped the sphere from moving, but no matter what I thought, I still thought that Lillin had done something.

Lillin creates an invincible smile and now moves her index finger towards the ground.

And then--that's it!

A mysterious nail that also appeared from above. And now there's more than one. The golden nails pierce the body of the Ballon Bone Lizard one after the other.

The sun is staring at the sight with astonishment.

I don't know what it is. When I noticed it, the earlier sphere disappeared, and the monsters with the SS rank struck a lot of nails and were unable to move.

The sense of crisis felt by the sun seemed to have gone away like the wind in an instant.

"Gh... gih... gah..."

The Ballon Bone Lizard also tried desperately to wake her up, but nails flew up on top of it without saying anything more.

And now it's a bigger nail than before. With multiple nails of different sizes and lengths, the bones in your body are gradually crushing. The tail is shattered from the roots, and the arms and legs that supported the body are shattered to pieces.

Next, the color of the sun was taken away by the black wings growing on Lillin's back and floating in the air.

The girl, with long, bloody, bright red hair and black wings that swallowed everything, looked like a demon appearing in games, animations, etc.

"Now... this is the last time."

Lily leans her hands against the sky and waves softly toward the Ballon Bone Reservoir.

With that as a cue, a huge nail fell over the monster's head that could easily destroy the body of the Ballon Bone Lizard, crushing it with a tremendous impact sound.

Fragments fly to us when they're destroyed.

And just like the sphere earlier, after a while, it collapses like sand and is blown away by the wind.

The monster was completely silent.

Well, here's the place.

As if the usual work was finished, Lily spits out her words lightly and plays her fingers lightly.

----Piki... Piki... Pariiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!

I suddenly thought that there was a crack in the surrounding space, and it bounced off with a sound like the glass had cracked.

"What!?

Unexpectedly, the sun coloured and looked around with vigilance.

But the scene before the space broke was almost the same as before.

There is the Forbidden Emperor Cloud in the sky and red rain continues to fall outside the island.

But in the meantime, the difference is that the Ballon Bone Reservoir, which was supposed to have been shattered by Lillin's attack, was lying on the ground unharmed. Besides, I can't find the golden nail that I saw with certainty earlier.

……

I get confused and my analysis of the situation is delayed.

With the color of the day approaching, Lillian, who was somehow pulling her wings and resting on the ground, walked toward us with an expression that seemed nothing.

"Clean it up. I sleep."

"I'm afraid, young lady. Good night."

Siuba replied politely and lowered her head without any surprise.

Looking at Lillian's back as she went back to the Mansion, she stopped her feet and turned her face toward us.

"What do you think? You're strong, aren't you, boy? Fufu"

Including the feeling of superiority, I saw the dazzling expression of Japanese color, smiled with satisfaction, moved my feet again, and this time I went back into the Mansion.

Siuba approaches the Baron Bone Reserve to do what her Lord says.

"Oh, hey, is it okay if I get close?

"Yes, I'm already doomed."

"You think it's fatal? Are you dead?

I asked twice. Siuba nodded back and said:

"I'm surprised, but this is the power of my Lord."

"... force? Is that magic?

It's Mr. Left.

"Wait a minute, that's weird, right? Surely there's no magic around the red rain, is there?

They told me the story. And I tried to use magic on the evidence, but it was definitely unavailable.

"Yes, you can't use magic normally. But there are exceptions."

"Exception?"

"That's it."

That's how Shiva picks something and shows it. Without shrinking his eyes, it was a petal of Golden Rose collected with Shiuba.

"What's that?

"This flower had a special effect. As I mentioned before, this flower has so much vitality that it cannot be judged by its appearance."

I've heard of it during sampling.

"Its vitality is very compatible with people and brings benefits to those who consume it."

"Benefits?

"Yes, it's perfectly normal."

"... what is that?

It's an unfamiliar word.

"For a short time, anyone who ingests this will void any condition anomalies."

"Disable status exception?... I see, that's why you could use magic? No, in the first place, is the effect of this red rain abnormal?

"It's the left. It is an abnormal state called a clean sealed magic state."

"I see. But was there such a convenient thing....."

Of course, if you write "recovery" or "normal" in "Character Magic", you should be able to hope for the same effect. However, in this case, the magic itself could not be used, so the effect could not be felt.

"Well, that's why you couldn't, but you let Jisan go to the poison pile to get it?

That would convince me. Such a nasty monster is attacking us, so we need to prepare. That's why Lily decided to send Siuba to pick it up. But Siuba shakes her head.

"Nofofofo, unfortunately not."

"What? No?

"Yes, I wouldn't be late for anything like that, lady."

"... then why did you do it this time?

"Ah, even if she sees it, does she say she's very eager to show herself... finally, she wanted to brag about her superior abilities. Like no other Hyiro."

"... is he a kid?

She sighs as if stunned. Siuba also smiled joyfully.

"Nofofofo, well, that's how obsessed you are with Hiiro-sama."

……

He raised his eyebrows and leaned his neck.

"I'm not cheerful enough to show my hands to someone I don't care about. Because you like Hiiro-sama, I wanted to use magic to surprise Hiiro-sama. Nofofofofofofofo!"

Apparently, I just really wanted to brag about it, so I went out of my way to use Golden Rose magic. It is impossible to think of a Japanese colour to use such a precious thing just to make it look good.

"But can you do it without magic?

That was questionable no matter how much I thought about it. I already know that it is strong at the level. But I didn't think I could fight a monster that deserved an SS rank without magic, just pure combat ability.

"Hmm. Sure, teeth don't stand up in the same way. That monster is the Ballon Bone Lizard. It is a unique monster and is equivalent to Rank SS."

I was satisfied with that.

"But every strong man has a weakness. The Ballon Bone Lizard is no exception to the strong. And the weakness is that one bone, one of its nuclei, is less defensive than the others."

"Really? Does that mean you can crush one of them?

"I'm on the left, but I still don't think a typical adventurer would stand a tooth, but with 600 attack power, it would be easy to shatter."

I can't get the number 600 so easily, but it seems that with just one shot, you can break your body.

"So you're vulnerable to melee warfare?

"It's the left. So what I'm good at is creating a sphere called the bone ball that I showed you earlier and releasing it. And more....."

I heard a lot about it, but it was mostly about ranged attacks. Rather, I was surprised that the sphere was made of bone.

"Still, to get close, you need to be quick enough, insightful enough to find a core piece, and aggressive enough. All of them stand out to the young lady. So you can defeat them without using any magic. I've always done that."

"I see. By the way, I need to ask you something."

"You can't talk about your daughter's magic without her permission.

"I don't care."

"Pho?"

It was Siuba who was prepared to listen to Lillin's magic, but she felt like she was throwing her shoulder through.

"I want to ask you about the Forbidden Clouds."

"Hah, is this about the red clouds?

"Ah, how long will he be there? Last time I talked to you for three days, you said you couldn't use magic in the meantime, right?

"It's the left. Last time I went down for three days. However, as I mentioned earlier, the red cloud is also large, and above all, the ballon bone lizard that came out this time was quite large. Ah, I forgot to mention that the size of the red cloud is proportional to the strength of the Ballon Bone Lizard. Normally, the power is stored at the bottom of the lake and grows by absorbing energy from the rain from the red clouds. Therefore, the larger the size of the red cloud, the greater its energy. That's why the Ballon Bone Lizard will be proportionately stronger. Moreover, this attack is only once. And even if he takes his life, time will come to create a new Balonbone Reserve from the bottom of the lake."

Looks like a naturally occurring monster. Moreover, it is said that the basics are cowardice, and they come out to hunt only when magic cannot be used. They usually feed on vulnerable monsters living in the lake.

"I see. I know about the monsters. So what do we do to get out of here?

"Is it outside...?

"Oh, there's no use anymore, is there? I'll keep on traveling."

But when I heard the words of that day, Siuba unfortunately frowned.

"I'm sorry, but it's dangerous to go outside while this red rain is raining. As I mentioned earlier, that rain is quite heavy. The Ballon Bone Lizard is a monster that was originally born from the gathering of red rain, so it doesn't hurt much, but it's as easy to take damage as a normal body with countless stones pouring down directly from above."

"Mhh...."

The sun looks up at the clouds as it roars.

Indeed, as Siuba says, if it rains as hard as a stone, even with an umbrella, it will not help. We will also need a boat across the lake, which will undoubtedly overturn.

"Besides, even if you get out of Lake Matsumata, you can't use magic for a while. You know that, or there are monsters waiting for you around it. If it's a monster, it must be a dressed prey for those who can't use magic."

"... well, that means we can't get out of here unless this hateful rain stops."

"I thought it would be better."

The color of the sun exhales heavily.

(Totally, I was just going to have a little meal, but that was a big deal. Are you in trouble creating me...?

However, the reality is that there is nothing you can do with the color of today that cannot use magic. I wonder if there is Golden Rose and ask Siuba, but I hear that the stock is zero.

(I can't help it. It is a problem to be next to that kid, but I have to wait and see for a while)

After making that decision, I went back to my room thinking about getting a good night's sleep for what happened on the way.

When I woke up, it was already a little past noon.

When I went to the dining room, Siuba prepared a lunch that was not breakfast, because it was a good time. When I asked the butler if he knew what was going to happen to him, that word came back again.

There's nothing you can do about it, so you can still hear the sound of rain and sigh while you eat silently.

I remembered a lot there.

I wonder if Mikazuki is safe.

Mikazuki has never seen a strange phenomenon called red rain before. Maybe it would be hard if you fell into chaos and fell into the lake.

Because of the use of the two-letter "Character Magic", the installation letter applied to Mikazuki disappeared and I couldn't figure out where it was, so I decided to go and see how it was after dinner.

I know the location in general, but I asked Siuba, and she said that the livestock feeding grounds are behind the Mansion. As soon as I heard, I left the Mansion and headed towards Mikazuki.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz To think that things that cannot be thought of in common sense really happen in other worlds, we move forward.

As Siuba had said, there was something like a hut in the back, and there were seen some birds like chickens. And nearby, Mikazuki sat down and closed her eyes as if it felt good.

Speaking of why it feels so good, it's because the person next to it is repairing Mikazuki's hair.

Qui!

Mikazuki noticed the presence of the sun and sounded delighted to be informed of his presence. However, unlike Mikazuki, the other person is instantly staring at us with a strong face.

I just fought the man last night for some cause or effect.

"Su, I didn't sooosh!

It was the maid who served the Mansion who said his apologies in a hurry, and it was certainly the Chamoes who had sunlight and agony last night.

Qui?

Mikazuki does not know why Shamoe suddenly apologizes to her husband and compares the two alternately.

"Ah, um, um, um..."

I don't know what to say. It looks blue and I'm in a panic state. When I saw her like that, the sun shook her shoulders like a daze.

"Never mind. We could have died."

If I hadn't resisted, I'd have been killed. Otherwise, I was seriously injured. I can't tell you not to worry about it because there was nothing.

I feel sorry for the Japanese words. She is trembling her body with her hands tied to her chest. Maybe he thinks he might get retaliated against.

Of course, I don't intend such a thing in Japanese colour. At that time, because my life was in danger, I tried to deal with it by pulling out my sword, but I didn't intend to do anything against the opponent that wasn't hostile to me.

"Do you remember?

"Ah, hah, hah, yes..."

"That's another tricky thing."

If you don't remember, you may not feel guilty much.

But while she was running wild, her own consciousness seemed to be clear. So I can't do anything, and I can only watch others get hurt in front of me. That might be close to torture for someone as weak as her.

"Ho, ho, ho, I'm really sorry! Chamoes... Chamoes... do something terrible..."

I shook my head again and again and apologized.

Looking at her like that, she certainly woke up, but I can't help feeling so pitiful. It doesn't feel good to see a woman apologizing so many times.

Open your mouth with a gentle sigh of sunlight.

Who the hell were you doing to that bird?

"Eh? Ah, who...?

"Quick, quick, quick!"

Mikazuki licks his happy face, which is his master I haven't seen in a long time.

"Yeah! I always told you to stop it!

Quiiiiiiiiiiiii!

Mikazuki shook his neck sideways like he hated it.

And the sun colour, "... this is the case", releases Mikazuki with force, showing his salivated face to Chamoe.

"Ah, well, that's enough."

Keep your hands together. There, he took a handkerchief cloth out of his pocket and handed it to the Japanese color. The color of the sun is also received honestly and the saliva is wiped off.

So, what did you do to him?

"Ah, yeah, that's right. B, let me brush it!

"Well, looks like he's taken care of."

When she touched Mikazuki's body, Shamoe shook her neck sideways in fear.

"No, no, no! This is the only thing I can do... and yesterday... well, the truth is, I had to apologize right away... well... I'm sorry..."

Apparently I wanted to apologize to the Japanese for last night.

But I didn't have the courage to meet him directly, and by taking care of Mikazuki like this, I decided to do something indirectly.

Of course, when my mind was ready, I was actually going to meet and apologize, but since it came from the color of the sun ahead of me, I wonder if it was confusing in my head.

Obviously upset, seeing her still looking frightened by the appearance of Japanese colour, the Japanese colour opens his mouth with his arms together.

"What are you so scared of?

"Eh... ah, well... ahh..."

She is holding her mouth as she puts her hands together to pray. I get a little frustrated when I don't talk.

"... hah, do you think I think you're crazy?

The shoulders are then twitched, indicating that the Japanese words are shooting at each other.

And as she moves her trembling lips, she comes out with words.

"So, but the Chamoe... is a 'beast'... so..."

"The Wizard Beast... was half of the Wizard Clan and the Wesen Clan."

"Yes..."

"What's wrong with that?

There is no big difference in race for Japanese colour.

That's why I don't know anything about mating with other species.

"But originally, halves are hateful beings..."

"Huh?"

According to her, children born of crossbreeding of other races across the continent, regardless of 'beast', are called 'forbidden' and despised and neglected by all races. That's why....

"You can't use magic, and you can't use Costume Magic ..."

As a half-feature, although physical features have a peculiar part of both races, magic and "costume magic", which are supposed to be usable with each other, cannot be used. Everything is said to be rebellious with each other's blood and can't be used.

The same is true of the halves of the "Human race" and the "Magus race", and magic cannot be used. That is why they were considered heretics, symbols of evil, and halves were considered forbidden.

Of course, mating is forbidden, and if a child is born in breach of that prohibition, he or she may be subject to immediate deportation or extermination.

Chamoe's mother was supposed to have been born ready for her, but her father was a 'Beast tribe' and he chose to leave the two of them somehow to find a way to cross the Beast continent in search of a land where his family could live in peace. Tell your beloved wife and daughter that you will find it and come back.

In the meantime, however, her mother and her young Chamoes lived secretly in a hut built by her father, but the 'Demons' who lived nearby noticed their presence and came into contact. At that time, they realized that Chamoes were half-half, and they threw them out of here.

I have no idea where I'm going, and my father hasn't come back yet. Wherever I went, as a mother who promised to wait for her father, I didn't want to wait for him to get away from here.

However, the "Magus tribes" who didn't like it had nothing to do with themselves, but still insults and ridicule were everyday chaos, and they naturally hated each other when they looked at each other.

Regardless of the young chamoes, the mother's heart gradually burst out.

When Chamoe turned five, she finally fell down, wondering if her mother's heart aches had accumulated.

And while Chamoe was watching, he quietly took his breath away.

I couldn't decide what to do when I was alone. The 'Demons' kicked her out because she thought her mother was gone. The hut my father built was also burned down.

With no place to go, she had no choice but to wander around the magical world without knowing where to go. But she couldn't use magic, and the magic world wasn't so gentle that she could live alone.

She was barely able to get food, and she didn't even know how to find water, and her mind and body were dying.

When I was at my limit and couldn't stop thinking that I was going to die like this, I was looking down at a fellow Chamoe.

"That was the lady."

Instead of the frightened face just now, she smiled slightly and looked happy.

"At that time, you reached out to Chamoes... but already! It was so cool!

"... what?

All of a sudden, the leopard's eyes twinkled like a strange light and clogged into the sun.

"You told the fallen chamois, 'Follow me if you want to live!' So you can hire Chamoes in this Mansion! Besides, don't worry about the taboos! Thank you so much to the lady!

You realize that you have forgotten yourself and are stuck in the sun, or you panic and take a distance to lower your head.

"Fhhhhhhh! Soot, soot, soot, soot, soot! Ha, ha, I've shown you a shameless place! Oh no! Chamoese idiot idiot idiot idiot!

Looking at Gongon and her head on the walls of the livestock hut, she shrugs her shoulders as if she had seen it somewhere.

"Never mind. So you're going to work here? I mean, could you have told me that? I'm just a customer, right?

Both my parents and Lillian are important memories.

Saying such a story to herself as a mere traveler was a day of doubt about Chamoe's sanity, but when she smiled a little, she shook her head full and sideways.

"Si, I asked Siuba-sama. Hi-hi, Hiiro-sama is not a species."

That pervert Jijii, he said something extra.

I feel my tongue in my heart.

"So, this may have been an ugly story, but I really wanted you to listen to it!

"... yeah, that's fine if you're good. I won't say anything else, and I'll praise you for seeing it."

"Ah, thank you so much!

The great sun coloured words and deeds, but Chamoes simply thanked him honestly.

(Mm... Osan would've been pushing in, but if you're being too honest, don't go crazy.)

Anold certainly returned the word, but it was kind of a nostalgic color.

Well, okay. You... well, I'll call you a dojimaid. "

"D, dojimaid!?

I was stunned as if I had been shocked.

"Dojimaid, full moon night"

When I hear the words, I breathe happily.

"I didn't seem to be able to control my power, but don't attack me next time.

"Hau! Fuuhhh... I'm sorry..."

"You'll find a little bit of control. Ask that red loli. You know how to live a long time, don't you?

"Ah, well... actually, I've been listening and practicing..."

"It's not going well...?

"Yes..."

Looking down and depressed, the sun color glanced at her and looked at Mikazuki.

"Well, if you're trying, that's fine, right?

Huh?

"At least I don't like the guy who's trying to change without being satisfied with himself."

"To...?

Hearing the words of the sun, Chamoes dyed his cheeks pointlessly.

"Fhhhhhhhhhh!

Suddenly, the sun coloured his face unexpectedly to shout.

"No, no, no! Here, here, here, here! That's... fuhhhh!

She was stunned with her hands on her cheeks.

I didn't know what was so surprising about her, and the sun coloured her eyebrows and looked at her strangely.

"Well, well, well, well! I was told that Chamoe likes me! That's... that's... that's... that's..."

When I thought I said something softly, I started turning my eyes, and now my face turned bright red as if I was giving out something like pusps and hot air from my head.

(That's weird. They're all freaks in this mansion.

I didn't understand pink fantasies like Chamoe's hair as much as his hair. As I watched "Forbidden Emperor Cloud" above the sky, I thought it would stop raining quickly.
