Konjiki no Moji Tsukai (Reboot)

103: The battle of the mules

"... uu"

"Marionette! Marionette, I'm fine!

After the duel between Marione and Leowood was over, Yveam and the others hurried back to the unconscious Marione. And he was carrying it outside the crater.

After a while, Marione recovers consciousness.

"Hee... Your Majesty..."

I shook my fist with an unfortunate look at Marione's defeat.

"Oh... I'm sorry I didn't help you..."

I suppose he intended to be subject to any abuse or slander from his temper. I always said I would win, and after all, I just made Leoward serious and ended up without taking any solid damage.

As a "Demon King's Guard", I'm sure you don't have any choice but to say something too pathetic about the outcome.

But Yveam shook his head quietly and said, "Don't do that!" and raised her voice as if to wipe out Marione's thoughts.

"... Your Majesty?

"It's a shame I did lose. But that won't diminish my trust in you!

…………

"Instead, I hunted down the Beast King. Even if he went to the duel in the future, he was the one he knew. It will be easier for the next."

"Your Majesty...."

"That was a good fight, Marione!

Marione looks at Yveam's bright face, which is not cloudy on one side, and looks relieved somewhere. And barely closing her eyes, Marione quietly uttered her words.

"Your words... hurt. Next... I will surely dedicate my victory to you."

"Oh, I'm counting on you!

When he slightly opened his eyes to the words and smiled lightly, he closed his eyes as if he were unconscious again.

Yveam asks his men to embrace Marione and stares at the center of the crater in preparation for the next battle.

We cannot be discouraged by defeat.

The second round begins.

"Good work, Father!

"The Beast tribe" flourished for Leowood's victory.

Everyone's big fist tells the joy.

The expression of First Prince Leguls, who was the first to speak up, was also delighted.

Hmm, it was such a fun fight.

Leoward nodded satisfactorily.

"Hurry up and fight me too!

The second prince, Lenion, naturally smiles as if his body is throbbing when hit by the hot battle earlier.

"What do you say, Kuclear, and Mimil, this is a real battle."

I'm sure Leoward is happy to win, but Kuklir's faces are slightly convulsing because he saw a real duel that cost his life.

You must have been shocked by the intensity and the danger of losing your life.

"... does my father always fight like this?

That's what I heard from the First Princess, Kuclear King. She is wearing a red and brown shortcut that resembles Leo Wood.

The slightly sharp eye is on the father's side, but somehow the cute face that everyone says is young and affectionate is probably due to the blood of my mother, Brunsa.

I see. War is easy to lose. That's why we all fight to die. "

…………

"It's not impossible to feel fear. But you said no, not just you, but Mimil wanted to see this duel with her own eyes. Though it may not be as good as it should be, I dared to give permission. Do you know why?

Kuclear and Mimir shake each other's necks.

"That's because this duel determines the fate of the 'Beast Clan'. Besides, you can watch this duel. And I wanted you to see this transition with your eyes."

"... why?

Because you're the next generation of young people.

Certainly Leoward is ruling the country now, but somebody will succeed him.

If his eldest son, Leguls, and his second son, Lenion, were scattered in the middle of the war, then Kuclear or Mimir would succeed him.

However, even if young people who do not know the nature of the struggle are at the top of the country, there will always be distortions. Especially in this day and age, it will stand out.

That's why I wanted you to know the horrors of war and what war is.

Whether the Beast tribe wins or loses this duel, it must be a big milestone. Leoward had determined that the difference between experiencing or not experiencing the milestone was still significant.

Leowood gently placed his hand on Kuclear and Mimil's head.

"So take a good look. May those who come to this battle live."

"... okay."

"... yes"

Nodded satisfactorily to both of them,

"Your next move... is yours"

And that's how Leoward got his eye on it.

Well, I'll do as much as I can.

It was Laraseek with his head crossed with frustration.

"I can't make sure my apprentice grows up."

She glances at Anold and Muir behind her. Looks like they're nervous and their faces are stretched. Especially Muir's face was so pale that he was about to fall.

It is these three who come out next.

"Don't be nervous, Arnold. It makes sense for anyone to hit you with all their might."

I think I understand what Leoward is saying, but this is a battle for the fate of our species. I don't suppose you didn't think you'd be in such an important battle. No matter how much I trained for this, it is natural for my body to tremble.

Muir's expression is as serious as his desire to stiffen his body and stop it if possible. It is true that she has worked hard to become as strong as the Japanese word, but it seems that she has completely constrained herself to stand on such a big stage.

"Hey Lara, I'm sure it's up to you, but can you take care of the Anolds?

"I know, Mr. Leo. If they weren't too worthless, we'd abandon them sooner."

"Ah, no... that's not what I meant to say..."

"What are you talking about? If you really don't like it, you could have escaped there. It was at their will that they came here, and they chose to come here. If you're going to die without using your power, all you have to do is give up what I can't see."

Listening to Larasik's words, I think there were some who thought it was too much to say, but Anold and Muir show a shocked look like electricity ran through their bodies.

In fact, you could have said no. Like she said, I came here because I wanted to see the sun and because I wanted to show him our power.

And to be honest, I'm glad they had enough reason to let us participate in this big stage. That's how it grew.

That's why we're here to meet Laraseek and Leoward's expectations. I may have felt even more comfortable now that we had to do what we could.

Anold and Muir nodded at each other with determination. Looking at the two, Larasik broke his mouth.

"Come on, you guys! Let's go for a fancy battle debut!

"Ooh, ooh!

"Ha, ha!

Each of the three raised their voices to keep themselves and their surroundings alive and headed towards the center of the crater.

In the center of the crater, Siuba waited with a piece of paper with the example participants written on it.

And now, two representatives of the second round face to face.

"Ohh! I'll check it out! The" Beast Clan "faction, Lord Larasik, Lord Anold, and Lord Muir. The" Magus "faction, Schblers, Herb Reed, Ionis. Are you sure about both?

Both nodded positively to Siuba's question.

Herbal Lead is a man with three long horns growing on his forehead, and Ionis is a girl a little taller than Muir with an eye mask that somehow covers both eyes.

Oddly, both sides were a team of two women and one man.

"Hey, Anold, that Schblers woman is still early for you. Is that why you're telling me that his opponent is walrus?

Laraseek tries to convey the operation in a small voice and realizes that there is a part of Anold next to him staring at it.

"Nh...."

A glossy, breathtaking voice leaks from Schblers.

Then Anold's eyes opened further and became congested.

- Bago!

"Nhhhhh!?

Anold suddenly suffered a blow to the head by Larasik.

"What are you doing, Master?!

"Shut up, you stupid apprentice! How long were you gonna stare at that woman's chest?

"No, no, no, no, no, that was a mistake!

"... Uncle..."

I desperately excuse myself, but Muir leaked his words in a frustrating manner as to whether he could really defend himself with suspicious behavior.

"Huh, you don't think I'm looking at that chest? You're not interested?

"What? Ah, no... I think you do have something wonderful, and I can't let go of my eyes... ah"

"Uncle...."

Anold, who can't get away with it at the earliest, is kicked down by Larasik and driven to death before the duel begins.

"Fufufu, that's funny ~ him"

Put your hands together in a chest lifting pose to accentuate your full-bodied chest. The herbal lead next door distracted his eyes as he dyed his cheeks slightly, and Ionis tilted his neck with his hands on his chest.

Butterfly, butterfly, butterfly...

But I shouldn't have forgotten. There was a pervert who was sending a much more intense and fierce gaze to the Twin Mountains of Schblers than Anold.

"Noffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff! Yeah, but no! I'm neutral now... no matter how much you invite me! But! When this duel is over, let me massage the rich, glossy ottomans!"

"Don't embarrass me!

Suddenly, Lillin appeared, spinning her body from above, knocking her heel down into the sky of Siuba.

"Byunpuu!?

A diagram of the pervert buried from the head to the ground, with only the feet peeking from the ground is complete.

"Why don't you get on with it?

"Ohh... gu..."

"Answer me!

"I... no... no... no... no... no..."

Lillin put her arms together and left the scene behind. Those left on the spot seem to be completely paranoid and poking.

"Nh, what was that..."

Anold's murmuring would have been everyone's will. But none of them answered it.

"Nofofofofofofofo! I'm sorry for taking so long! Nofofofofofofofo!"

Siuba, who was resurrected early, politely lowered her head and said.

"Oh, hey, that old man's nose is still bleeding... right?

"Uh-huh...."

Anold's question was something Muir thought, but he didn't seem to care, so he avoided penetrating.

"Ohh! Now let me confirm the King! Aren't there differences between the" Beast "faction and the" Magus "faction?

Both of them shake their necks vertically. The characteristic of this duel system, Agassi, is that when fighting with multiple players, both players decide on the role of "King".

And the others will support him so that he will not be destroyed.

In one-on-one cases, they are inevitably "Kings", so the duel ends when one of them becomes unable to fight, but in this case, if the "Kings" are not defeated, they will not lose even if their allies are defeated.

However, the likelihood of defeat is high because the defense of the "King" will be diminished if the allies can do it.

"So are you ready for both?

At the same time as the words, they jump back and distance each other.

Siuba checks both sides and breathes heavily.

"Now, let's begin the second round!

The battle between Anold and Muir, a former Japanese travel companion, has now begun.

"Well then, Anold is the man, Muir is the little woman. In the meantime, I'll let that mysterious woman go with her breasts!

Laraseek says that she feels uncomfortable with Chevrolet's chest.

"Oh, as far as I'm concerned, I'd be so happy if that man were you ~"

He also stared into Anold's eyes as he shook his chest.

"... goku"

Anold's nose was swollen while forgetting the blinking.

"Are you coming first, Anold?

"Ah, eh! Ah, you should fight him! I'll take care of it! Ahahahaha!"

Feeling the obvious lethargy from Larasik, he desperately mends it while trembling his whole body. Muir sighs as if stunned and sends his gaze to the person he should be dealing with.

She has light green hair tied to her side and wraps around a curl. But what bothers me most is the presence of an eye mask worn to cover both eyes.

I don't think I can see anything there, but if I imagine that there is a blind spot, I shake my neck thinking that I might see painful eyes.

I'm strong enough to be in a duel. I'm sure you'll find yourself living in that little body that's hardly different from yourself, and then put your strength into your fist.

Then he turned his eyes towards the Japanese color outside the crater.

(... look, Hyiro-san)

Turn your eyes again to Ionis.

Watch me grow!

That's how you tell yourself to focus on your eyes.

"Well, then, it's time to get started. I won't forgive you if you do it lightly!

Laraseek's excitement flies and Anold and Muir respond forcefully.

"I'm coming with you. Both of you?

Ha!

"I understand."

This one also responds to Schblers' voice.

"Let's split up first! Whoa!

When Laraseek touches the ground with his right hand, there are countless ice thorns that appear toward the other three.

Each one of Schblers dodges an attack from the ground, but he gets knocked out.

And each one of them is relative in the form of a single knock.

Anold storms towards the opponent in front of him, Herbal Reed, pulling out the big sword on his back.

"Uhhhhhh!

"It's sweet! Shadowblade!"

A black sword made of dark magic is held in the hand of Herbal Lead. And it prevents Anold's sword.

They are comparing their strength with each other's teeth and struggling with each other.

"Wow, that's a beast. That's a lot of power!

"Thank you for that.... alright!

When Anold swings his sword, the opposing herbal lead jumps back in a pushed form. As soon as he followed the anode, Herbal Lead threw his sword at the anode with his tongue raised.

"... what?

Shadowbow!

Suddenly, the black sword turns into a bow and arrow.

"Ha!?

An arrow is fired from the front of the anode, which was heading straight for it.

Kh!

Anold brakes aggressively and jumps sideways to dodge the arrow.

"Not yet!

Herbal Lead pulls his bow without rest. An enormous number of arrows attack Anold.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Prevent flying arrows while swinging the great sword.

"Can you still do any damage? Then how about this!

Now I'm packing up at an incredible speed. Anold is ready to intercept and shoot.

Shadowax!

Now it's Herbal Reed's weapon, transformed into a giant axe.

- Doga!

"Nuhh!? Oh, my God, what a force!

Anold responded with a great sword, but he couldn't stand the impact of the axe and was hit. Both hands with the great sword rose to the sky with momentum.

"There is a gap! Shadow Dagger!"

Judge the defenseless torso as a gap, and transform it into a small dagger to chase after it.

Kh!

My stomach will be torn apart like this. But even if I try to put my arm back, the strength of the play is strong, and I can't get it back in time.

"I got it!

Herbal Lead quickly wiped out Dagger as if he had decided to win.

I definitely caught it. Even if he couldn't take his life now, he turned around to see if the opponent was no longer able to fight, or if he turned his back.

There is Anold with his stomach ripped open while standing up.

But then Herbal Lead noticed something strange.

I can't find a drop of blood that might be ejecting from where it's being torn.

"Well, what do you mean...?

When it solidifies while keeping an eye on it,

"It really hurts, really. I almost died."

Anold, who was supposed to have suffered a fatal wound while pointing his back, heard a fluent voice.

Then Herbal Lead glances at the tearing area and breathes happily, confirming that it is turning green.

"... Conversion ...?

The anold wound then returns to normal, smiling at the herbal lead and facing the front.

I don't suppose you can't use it, Mr. "Magus"?

"... I was sorry. That's the man chosen for the duel. May I ask your name? My name is Herbal Reed Julius."

"I'm Anold Ocean. I quickly decided to join this duel, but I'm not going to lose any more than I left!

"Really? Hurry up and join... I see you've never seen it before. But I cannot be defeated for the sake of the peace of the Demon Clan!

That said, I will return to the shape of the shadow blade again.

"Regardless of the Conversion, magical attacks can cause pain, and we know that there is a corresponding risk. And...."

The herbal lead glanced at Anold's body.

"Looks like you can't transform your whole body like King Beast yet.

"I don't know, that's what we're looking forward to!

When they smiled at each other, they both kicked the earth.

You should surrender now.

Ionis spoke indifferently, looking down at the person who was now lying on the ground.

"Uhh...."

Her opponent, Muir, had been evaded by Ionis from all attacks earlier, as he continued to receive counters and rolled to the ground.

(I, wow... I can't believe I can't hit you at all...!

When I look at an ionis wearing an eye mask, I can see an exclamation in its wonderful movement. I have already discarded the idea that it should be invisible.

Still, I wasn't surprised that my attack would be so brilliant. Muir stands up and launches another attack.

"─ Thunder Fang ahh!

Fly lightning the same way you used to fight Leowood.

It's an attack on the ground and headed for Ionis - Hyun-huh!

There is no waste in the movement, and everything is replaced by a single piece of paper.

Moreover, although lightning is supposed to be causing a discharge phenomenon in the wild, I am shocked because I have even identified it and avoided it.

Clean up the gap that fired more attacks and then throw kicks.

"Yikes!?

I guard with my arms aggressively, but with a lot of force, it blows up.

"I can't. I can't hit a thunder like that."

Muir stood up with his teeth tied.

"Still not giving up? Then don't come this way."

She then grasped something with both hands and made a gesture to throw it.

Muir jumps backwards aggressively.

- Bogo!

Something made a hole in the ground.

It can be recognized that if it hits, it will take a lot of damage.

I was going to be careful.

"Yikes!

Suddenly a shock is run over the left shoulder and blown away.

And Muir saw it.

Something that hits you makes a loud noise and returns to Ionis.

And not only what hit me, but also what fell on the ground went back to her.

Sululululululululululululu...

Hold down your left shoulder to see why you were attacked.

I looked at what Ionis was holding and frowned.
