Konjiki no Moji Tsukai (Reboot)

"... I see."

Put more effort into the hand holding the sword.

It is understandable that the boy's behavior earlier carried something he did not know whether to call a heavy stone sword or not, and restricted his own movement.

But I took it away, and I took the sword that the man in charge had, no, the sword.

And he's in the hall looking up. Perhaps the original owner of the doubleknife is a boy.

(Until now, you didn't really mean it... it's funny)

Then I will prepare "Character Magic" to try my best to help the opponent.

(You should be careful about speed. I don't know how heavy that sword was, but when I look at it and follow the red loli's movements, I think it's as bad as that....)

Don't look away from the boy, turn your right hand behind your body and write "Speed" on your body. It was set as "Installation Character".

You noticed that I used magic over there, too, and your vigilance increased.

Wait a minute, kid.

Yes, Lillin told me about the color of the day.

"What? I'll take him. Don't touch me."

If you were to sidestep the tortoise, you would not get experience. For Japanese colors who want to raise their level crisply, fighting strong enemies is more a wish or a fulfillment. As expected, there are too many levels to fight against Lillin, so I'd like to refrain.

"Just wait. I need to ask you something."

That said, she looks at the boy.

"Hey, why do you persistently reject intruders? This desert is not yours alone."

Her question was of particular importance. I had heard rumors that their "Ashras" were eliminating the intruders, but I just thought they didn't like the territory being vandalized.

I said the desert would not be razed. But if I go further, I persistently refuse to do so. She wondered if there was anything going on in the desert, and Lillin asked.

"You guys don't know anything, you know how we feel!

Suddenly, the man in charge burst into anger and shouted. But I give him back his words to pass on his anger as if he were a stranger.

"Hmm, are you stupid? That's why I'm asking you. Answer me now."

"Fuck! Kisama!

Then the boy nearby raised his hand softly to control him. I noticed the meaning of the technique and couldn't help but moan.

And the boy turned to Lily and said, "... okay.... talk", he opens his heavy mouth with a slightly dark expression.

"In this desert... yeah, in the desert that goes deep from here... there's a monster living there. The intruder... pisses him off... no. We... are in trouble. So... we eliminate it here."

It was difficult to understand because of the unique way of speaking, but after listening to a little more details, I tried to summarize the Japanese color as a representative.

"So, you Ashras are trying to keep the desert monsters from getting mad at someone you don't know?

"Yes."

"And the monster is so tough that they can't handle it on their own?

"I don't want anyone to die..."

Fight without sacrifice, or you may be able to defeat. However, the number of "Ashras" is small, and there are elderly people and children.

We cannot put our children's lives at risk, especially those responsible for the future. That's why I live in secrecy so I don't irritate monsters in the desert.

"But why don't we just get out of the desert?

It was the man who answered the question of the day.

I can't do that.

She is biting her teeth while making a bitter expression.

"Why?

"The desert is our home. They live with the sand, and they die with the sand. Above all... here is the tombstone of the 'Asura'. Don't throw it away."

Nearby is the settlement of the 'Ashras', who have lived with the desert for a long time.

And of course, some of them died here. I made a grave for them. The place is said to have been made out of a large rock called "Graveyard Rock."

The "Ashras" value the bonds of the clan above all else, and are also a race that values the dead. It is normal to die as a wreck, but I seriously believe that my soul will return to my family.

He abandons the grave where the dead are asleep and insists that they cannot leave the desert.

"Then why don't we just move through the tomb?

"Don't say that. How can you expose such a grave!

They certainly don't value the dead more than burying them there once, digging them up and moving them around.

"Besides, it's for your own good not to go through here! I will never fight that monster! If you don't want to die, get the hell out of here!

"Decline"

"... what?

I was surprised that the Japanese gave an immediate answer, but I was stunned by the fact that the answer was rejected.

"Why should I change my path for a monster I don't know?

"Well, that's why you're saying it! I don't care if you fight monsters and die! But what if the monster's anger turns on us?

"Hmm, I wish I could get rid of that."

"Hmm... oh, you can say that because you haven't seen him! It's too late to piss me off and try to escape!

"Say it again and again. We're going through here. If you want to interrupt, just push through."

Kh!

The man looked at the color of the sun in a gruesome way that he didn't listen to, but the only boy beside him was blinded by the color of the sun. And the boy puts his hand on the shoulder of a man who is shaking his shoulder with anger.

"Oh, long...?

"... stand back."

I see.

Listening to the boy, I gave him the spot.

Hey, Red Lori, I'll take care of this.

"... I don't care, but I don't know if they're willing to do it.

"What?"

The boy put the double sword he had in his hand in his sheath.

"What are you doing? Are you saying we can go through here?

The boy also stares at the color of the sun. And quietly open your mouth.

"Do you really... want to go?

"Ah, it's hard to detour."

"... okay. Then... I'll follow you."

"What about it?"

"Oh, long! Are you sure?

The man shouted in surprise at the boy's words.

The boy nods small and shows that he is serious.

"... I see. Then I'll go back first and tell my friends about it."

"Nh... be careful"

Yes, then.

The boy turns to us again as the man in charge leaves the scene.

"My name is... I'm late. Me... Camus. I'm doing it here, the head of the" Asura "..."

Looking at him indifferently, he is so young that he does not seem to be the head of the family.

Because it is a "Magus", it is not impossible to doubt whether it is really long by seeing a boy of a different age than yourself, even if it is not the same age as it looks.

"From now on, I'll follow you to your place of residence... So... I want you to decide."

"Judging?" What?

"... monster fear..."

At that time, for the first time, a quiet flame was seen in the back of his eyes. It was undoubtedly an angry light.

I thought he was emotionally weak, but he seems to have a lot of anger against monsters.

Think about whether the color of the sun will follow Camus with arms folded.

It was certainly one of the purposes of the trip to see the "Ashra" settlement. I thought this might be a wish because I said that you would guide me. Of course, I can't let my guard down.

"Isn't that nice?

Lillin says so, but the color of the sun always looks at others.

Siuba nodded with a slight smile, and Chamoe seemed unhappy about how things were going next to Lily.

Regardless of Chamoe, they seemed to have no problem following him.

With Lillin's strength, I'm sure she will be able to sharply perceive and retaliate when the opponent raids, and she won't even notice.

"Okay. Then I'll show you around."

The chuckling boy nodded and walked with his back to the sun. His companions also took a position behind them and walked out together.

(Desert monsters... they must still be pretty strong)

Because Camus, who is supposed to be strong, has such an attitude, I'm sure he will have an unmanageable ferocity if he exposes himself.

I walked up to Siuba and asked him if he had any information about the monster, but he didn't know either. At the same time, she replied that Lillin, who had heard the question, did not know.

"Well, that sounds interesting. This kind of stimulus is pretty good."

"Don't say that to me."

"Mh... look, kid! The walrus had a walrus ambition and was just there! Don't forget that!

He pointed his finger at me and said, but he glanced lightly at me with a half-eye and smiled with his nose.

"Well, more than that, how was he from your point of view?

"Hmm? What, do you care? Hmm?"

I'm a little angry because I'm listening with a lewd smile.

Answer me.

"Fufu, yes, he was long. Hmm, let's just say I do have to call myself the chief."

"Oh, you think you have that much?

"Don't fall in love. I thought you actually understood that by putting a sword on it?

The strength of Camus was actually understood a little. Of course, neither of them was serious, but I know they have a lot of strength.

"Perhaps your physical abilities alone have no chance of winning. And it's a mystery about his magic. Maybe it's a good thing you didn't have to be there, Tyman?

Makes a pleasant expression and utters words.

"Don't joke. If I fight, I win."

"Kuku, where does that confidence come from... well, I'll let you enjoy it when the match comes true. Kukuku"

At that time, it was just a line that didn't say that I was going to find out the true power of Japanese color.

Indeed, she said that she would reveal her identity wrapped in a mysterious veil of Japanese colour on this journey.

If you carefully observe where you fight, it's about her, who's smart, and I'm sure she'll be naked and not in a good mood.

(If you're going to do it, you have to do it. You have to watch when he's gone.)

Determined to do so, he stared at Kamu's back as he walked ahead.

Because of the sunshine, I walked for a while while while applying my face to the sweat spraying out from my forehead, and a happy sight came into my eyes.

"That's... Oasis!

I thought it might be a mirage, but I was relieved because it seemed to be visible to Lillin and the others.

At the same time, my stomach grunts. I've walked a lot and my health has decreased. It's about noon, so the warning sounds from my stomach.

"That's... where I live."

Camus points to Oasis. Apparently, I thought I could take a slow break.

Is it about the size of the Tokyo Dome? Only that part produces green, and the presence of the pond is also visible. Next to the pond was a building like a gel inhabited by Mongolian nomads.

(Never see a gel before... it's bigger than I thought.)

Incidentally, the gel is circular and has a framework supported by two central pillars, with beams passing radially from the center to the roof. It has sheets made of sheep hair covered with a cover that is equivalent to a roof or wall.

The space is about four to six meters in diameter. Several houses resemble the gel.

"Ah, it's Kamu Kamu!

"Really!

"Kamu Kamu!"

When I wondered how many children had come out of Gel, they all rushed to Camu. Camus knelt down and aligned himself with his child's eyes. Look at Camus being hugged by children one after the other.

(Kids adore you a lot)

A slightly nostalgic feeling comes back to life as you gaze at the sight in front of you.

When I was in a child care facility, my oldest day color was often taken care of by other young children.

I didn't like it myself, but I smiled bitterly remembering that my child's innocent smile was a little dazzled, but it was also saved.

"Ah, hey Kamu Kamu! What about these guys?

When one of the children asks, the adult woman who comes to Camus likewise calls attention.

"Say hello, chief!

"Yeah, I mean, Mom, Kamu Kamu keeps going!

"Yes, yes!

"Kamu Kamu is Kamu Kamu!

Children answer to adults at once. The adults sigh and shrug their shoulders. The man who was supposed to have gone back there appeared.

"... long"

When I looked closely, I saw another person accompanying me.

The exterior was an old man with wrinkles that made him feel the moon. Just keep your eyes closed all the time. There are burn-like wounds spread around both eyes, but it is the cause and I may not be able to open my eyes even if I want to. Besides, my right leg is prosthetic.

"Ji-chan... what are you talking about?

Um, I'm listening.

Answering Kamu's question, he slowly raised his face in front of the Japanese.

I definitely haven't opened my eyes, but I'm staring at the sun color.

Lily and the others will also move their faces to confirm their existence.

Also, I didn't miss the sun colour when I moved my eyebrows and pimples when I was in Lillin. The old man turned to the sun again.

He stared back at his opponent's face even as he raised his eyebrows.

"... I see, it looks like interesting people."

Smile while creating more wrinkles on the wrinkled face.

Yesterday Kamu and Jin Wu asked me about the roughness, but what if they told me that even if I showed them the sight, it would still go on?

"Then... I'll stop.... even if I risk my life..."

Then the old man laughs with pleasure.

"Ho-ho-ho-ho, that's impossible."

"Eh... why?

I didn't expect you to say such a thing, so I made a mistake.

"Kamu, you're strong. It may have grown to be unbeatable to its predecessors. But then....."

Now she turned her eyes to Lillin, who was smiling meaningfully while closing her eyes.

"Except that."

"... is that it?

Camus looked at Lillin the same way as the old man.

And Lillin raised her tongue with her arms together.

"That's a trick, isn't it... Shivan?

I was surprised at the words, not only the color of the sun, but also Shiuba and Chamoes.

Probably a familiar face, but I understood that it would be a long time ago that Siuba didn't know either.

And the other day, I realized what it meant for Shivan to look at Lillin and react with concern.

"Do you know... Ji-chan?

"Hmm, I didn't expect to see you again in a place like this."

"That's our line. You're still alive, aren't you?"

"Ho-ho-ho-ho, my lord didn't tell me."

"Hey, did you know him?

He nodded "Ah" in the Japanese language.

"A little while ago. Shivan, you're a long time old."

"How long do you think it's been since? Well, you haven't changed a bit, have you?"

"Oh, you know what?

"With voice and vibe. Since I've seen this, I've become more sensitive to it naturally."

"... what happened to your eyes and feet?

Lillin looked down and heard it with a serious expression.

"... if only you hadn't known."

"Is that a monster...?

That's right.

"Someone like you...?

"Ho ho, I didn't beat the approaching wave. Unlike you."

"Hmm, it's about you anyway. Was it the wound you suffered as a result of covering your feet?

"Ji-chan...."

When Shivan tries to argue something, Kamu clashes his words to block it.

"Ji-chan... just protected me... I was just... weak..."

For the first time, the faceless face was frowning sadly.

But the words helped me figure out what caused Shivan's wound.

When fighting monsters, when Kamu was about to be attacked, Shivan must have come to our aid. But I don't know if it was a monster attack, but I lost both eyes and my right leg.

"Kamu, it's not your duty to protect your family. I'm not the former chief, either. And now you're the head of this family. Don't make me look so sad."

Shivan is embarrassed that you're feeling it, even though you can't see it.

"Always be a man of perseverance and trust."

"Yeah... okay... sorry"

"So it's not that easy to apologize."

Shrug your shoulders with a sigh of astonishment.

"Shivan, what is a desert monster? Why don't you give me a hand? If you're just strong... no, even if you're a ranked SSS monster, you'll be able to handle it in bundles. Falsifying that you can't move because you have a tomb doesn't work for me. Tell me why."

The people around her looked at Lily's words. Of course, the color of the day was the same. I don't think that story was the real reason, and I look at Lillin just like everyone else.

Most of the "Asura" hit Lillin with a vigilant gaze, but she stared at Shivan without putting such a gaze on her nose.

"... after all, can't you hide it from me? This Loribaba has been really nasty for a long time."

"Hmm, let's fascinate you with another dream of being buried in a woman's underwear and dying of suffocation, damn serious."

Face to face, sparks scatter in between. Those around him who felt the air tightening in took an unexpected breath.

Incidentally, the sun color and Shiuba were quietly watching how things went.

(I mean, Red Lori, why did you do something you don't know?)

Choking buried in a woman's underwear may be accepted as a pleasure, but the color of the day was absolutely sorry.

And Lillin and Shivan laughed aloud as they continued in that state for a while and smiled slightly at each other.

"Ho-ho-ho-ho."

"Kuku"

The surroundings are surprised that the atmosphere has softened at once.

"Follow me, Guest. I want to show you something."

Walk towards the cutlet and somewhere. The Japanese decided to follow suit.

He was guided to a gel ("Ashra" residence).

Unlike other products, it was about three times the size. When I went in there, the smell of blood and disinfectant that stuck my face came to my nose.

About a dozen men and women were lying on several beds made of grass and leaves.

Instead of just sleeping, everyone's body is bandaged and bleeding. If you look closely, you can see spots that could stain the ground with blood.

When I saw the sight, I saw that Chamoe was covering his mouth with both hands and trembling small. Lillin also raised her eyebrows uncomfortably.

That's one of the reasons I can't get out of here.

One or two people will be able to carry it.

However, it is understandable that it will not be easy to carry more than a dozen critically ill people here. From what I hear, some of them are so dangerous that they can't move.

"Of course, it's true that I don't want to move the dead buried in the Graveyard Rock nearby."

"Do you have any wound medicine?

The colour of the sun speaks out of doubt.

"Of course there are, but the wounds inflicted on the monsters in the desert seem to be hard to heal... and we need to find other settlements or medicinal herbs outside the desert to get them. It's hard to break up who can fight here right now."

I see. Certainly there is no medicinal herb growing in the middle of this desert.

We need to get out of the desert, but there are fierce monsters coming out, and if we're going to other settlements, it's going to take time and we need to move some of our best men.

However, it seems that the "Ashras", which are not very numerous in nature, are less powerful than the Camus. We can't reduce the number of talented, considering their role in interfering with intruders and the fact that desert monsters have been stripping their teeth.

"Now I'm roasting herbs from this oasis to treat these people, but it's a difficult situation."

"That's tough."

The sun closed her eyes with her arms folded.

Perhaps Siuba and Lillin are looking at themselves right now.

At that time, I thought that I could cure them with the healing magic that the sun color showed, and showed an attitude of not listening to me. There is no steward to heal them.

Hey, Shivan.

"What is it, Lillian?

"Is there any other reason? As I said, even if the opponent is a monster of Rank SSS, the Asura will be able to fight with all their might. Why didn't you?

…………

"Sometimes I wonder. I don't think people like you are going to be late for monsters, even though they don't have as much power as they were in active service. I don't think you'll lose one foot and both eyes, even if you're nearby.... what are you hiding?

Lillin pursued with sparkling eyes.

When she heard her words, Kamu and the man in charge were as stunned as if they had lost their words. The appearance revealed that Lillin's words were shooting at the target.

And when Shivan exhales loudly, he quietly opens his mouth.

"That's the Red Rose Witch, you really have a tongue on your insight."

"Fufu, of course."

Her chest is as tight as usual, but her face is either happy or loose.

"... desert monsters. That's... that's the eldest."

"The eldest? What do you mean, Shivan?

Lily raised her eyebrows suspiciously and asked questions.

"When she was just a little kid, Camus."

Shivan then moves his lips heavily.

About thirty years ago, something strange happened in this desert.

It started with a monster. The monster was a species that normally inhabited the desert, but it changed its shape just like the monster mutated.

His name was a monster called Desert Tortoise, and he was a Rank S monster featuring a large armor on his back.

The dessert tortoise was supposed to have green skin one day, but it turned into a poisonous dark purple color.

Besides, Dessert Tortoise, who shouldn't be so fierce, started attacking other monsters. In addition to just attacking them, they started eating monsters that were defeated and turned into corpses.

And surprisingly, he showed his ability to restore the characteristics of the eaten monster to his body. A monster named Mad Scorpion was ingested and its characteristic poison tail grew in Dessert Tortoise.

A monster named Mad Golem is supposed to contain its thick, hardened skin.

Dessert Tortoise began to wake up this mysterious phenomenon of lodging the characteristics of what he had eaten in his body.

As it stands, the "Ashras", who felt that not only desert monsters, but also themselves, would be in danger, decided to take them down in the meantime.

At that time, the name of the chief of the "Asura" was Lignon. He was a warrior blessed with strength and popularity, who was also the father of Kamu's fruit. Especially in battle, everyone was envious of his strength, and Camus was proud of his father.

Lignon and his allies headed for the Desert Tortoise Crusade. Everyone was confident that he would come back with the monster.

But there was only one broken ligand back. Seeing him full of creativity, the others lost their words. Even Shivan was stunned by his appearance for a while.

Everyone thought Dessert Tortoise was so strong, but the words from him were unexpected.

Dessert tortuosity is not a natural occurrence. There was a mastermind behind it. "

Everyone stopped moving as if time had stopped. It was Shivan who replied with a sharp expression.

But at that time, he was attacked by a dessert tortoise with a roar called Dogogogogogogogo.

On top of that armor stood a mysterious man with a black robe over his body. Everyone sees the situation and understands that what Riggund said was true.

Kamu saw his severely wounded father and companions, shook his shoulders in anger even as he was young, and headed toward him with a curved sword. But Kamu couldn't win, even though his father, who was the strongest of his clan, was killed in vain.

Kamu's bluish-brown ligand tried desperately to move his painful body to prevent Desert Tortoise from attacking him, but he couldn't make it. The dessert tortoise's sharp nails hit Camus relentlessly.

For the first time, Camus feels a premonition of death in a serious assault, and his whole body is stiff.

Everyone thought Kamu would be killed. But at that time, Shivan appeared in front of him in critical condition.

But as a result, Shivan suffers a major injury to his right leg.

Besides, Desert Tortoise's attack still hasn't stopped, and now he's attacking with the tail of poison.

Shivan squeezes his strength to hold Camus and throws him away from the scene.

And what's good is that he dodges his tail and flies back, but at the next moment, something like a vine grows from under his feet, and his feet are entangled and bound.

Shivan decided it was magic, and when he followed the magic stream, he realized it was being unleashed from the Loeb character. Besides, it wasn't just a vine, and I wasn't surprised if it contained a lot of magic.

He tried to escape, but the venom was released from his tail towards Busha and Shivan.

The released venom falls around both eyes, and you feel intense pain and fever as if you threw an eye into a flame.

Dessert Tortoise tried to poison him again, but the moment he hit him, the tail was cut off.

And immediately cut off the vines holding Shivan. The person who saw it shouted with an impressive voice.

He was saved by a ligand who was disturbed by pain and fatigue.

A black sword is held in his hand. But at the next moment, I put the sword in my sheath and threw it towards Kamu. Then hold the bending knife that fell down in your hand.

He tells the others to take Shivan and escape. He immediately retrieved Shivan and left, but Kamu stared at his father's back.

"Hurry up!

To-chan!

Camus didn't want to go.

In a full-blown father, it was sensorially understood that there was no chance of winning. My father said he was going to buy us some time to get away.

Don't make a mistake!

"......!?

You're my son! Then don't do the right thing now!

And, Ta-chan......

Kamu shook his body at his father's words while picking up a double sword that was falling on the ground. I feel heavy, but I try to leave the scene.

Running away?

Very dark and strangely low voices echo in the back of your ears.

The Lord of the Voice was undoubtedly the man of Loeb standing on the armor of Dessert Tortoise.

You abandon your father and escape unusually.... that's funny, too. "

"... you..."

Kamu held his fist and stared at him.

The hood also covered my face, but I could see a slight crucifix on my cheeks.

Camus!

My father's words shocked me and returned to me.

"... look, Kamu. The clan... I'll entrust you with that double sword."

To-chan...

Then she broke her painful expression and smiled.

Don't forget. You're my son! That's why I promise!

…………

"I promise... I'll be a good man"

My eyes are full of tears.

"Go... I asked everybody..."

I never looked back. I ran desperately away from the scene with my sword in my hand.

I abandoned my old oasis and found a new one, quite far away, and based there.

Everyone waited for the return of Lignon in anticipation, but was dismayed to hear reports from their friends who were looking around the desert.

I found an organism the same size as the ligand. I should be glad to hear that he was alive, but I felt betrayed in the following words.

"There's a poison tail growing from the ligand."

Upon examination, he appeared to have been eaten and absorbed by Dessert Tortoise.

Moreover, his appearance changed and his poisonous purple skin turned into the shape of a ligand with poisonous tails and sharp nails.

Everyone couldn't hide the shock from the fact. He told me that there was still a slight sense of ligand when his friends found out.

Apparently, he managed to squeeze his last strengths and limit the scope of Dessert Tortoise's activities.

This was due to his magic, but he managed to create a bond and keep dessert tortoises from coming out of it.

But I don't know how long it will last.

There are a lot of monsters to eat here, so they don't bother searching for Camus.

The person in Loeb said, "We're done," and it seems he disappeared somewhere, so I also found that he could be reassured.

But even if you don't bother looking for it, if you ruin the boundaries, it may stimulate and reveal the instincts of dessert tortuses. So I was told to be quiet if possible.

Shivan reviewed Lignon's story and tried to live a life without touching Desert Tortoise, as he said.

But of course, I don't think we can keep it that way, so we all figured out if we could fix him.

After a while, a traveler appeared in the desert, and the traveler entered the boundary to stimulate Desert Tortoise. As a result, he realized the existence of the "Asura people" who were watching, and was about to be killed by Desert Tortoise.

That's why we decided to get rid of those who came into the desert. If dessert tortoises really piss off and the boundaries don't work, it's time for them to turn their fangs.

That's why the Asura became the gatekeeper of the desert, believed that one day the ligand would return, and spent time searching for a way to do so.
