Kyūkei-san Wanna Take a Break !

Another perspective: Malica, second part

Why are you a swordsman in the first place?

Why did you become an adventurer in the first place?

What were you waiting for?

I just remembered that.

-

I was completely distracted. I had forgotten that I was on the front line and that the front line was the first to move.

It wasn't when I was thinking.

The picked sword doesn't move at all. No, no, no, no. Is this welded to a stone wall?!

I thought I would never move, but I can't even move with all my hands in one way like this...

"Ah, if you can't move it, it'll break."

Suddenly I let go of my fingers, and suddenly my full strength came down on me, and I couldn't help but fall down.

... I knew it.

"Why is it that you trust so many commanders when you can't send them out?

"No...."

"Oh, yeah."

"Ah."

I answered the sudden words from the Demon King reflectively myself.

Do you trust that commander? You're not doing this!

But this may be the first time I've said it so grandly.

"I'm just happy to hear the truth. Don't worry, don't be silly."

……

"But I'm faithful to my mission. Everyone's great. Should I show you how to fight? I won't let you get hurt, so why don't you do your best?

You've given a lot of thought to our weak position.

Why should a commander of his own army abandon me like a token and take the hostile Demon King into consideration?

It's getting so ridiculous and sad already. I wonder why I'm in Veolino.

That's a barista, isn't it?

Behind the Demon King, the Son of Dark Elves would have blown away his partner's magic with plenty of room.

I can't believe his magic can be prevented by arrows coming out after this kid...

I'm sure he's much stronger than me. But you look kind to me.

There are two women behind... one of them is a dragon. I wonder if it's green hair or horns.

Nah, I was observing it slowly.

"Cucumber-san, I'm going to shoot!

Mr. Cuckoo?

The moment I heard a name I didn't know, the Demon King disappeared from my sight. It's moving...!

--ahhhhhh

The voice came from behind.

The moment I turned around —— I saw the tip of a fat arrow in front of me.

The focus turned from the Demon King to the tip of the iron, and I screamed and buttocks.

"Commander, why..."

It wasn't the demon king who was targeting me in the barista.

It was going to be an addition to my achievements.

Absolutely not, that Commander is not interested in the strength of the front-line warriors.

We are just a group of discarded tokens.

What are you doing! Crusade against the Devil!

I can't disobey the nobles.

You guys know what happens when you violate orders!

I understand.

I know, but...

Hmm.

For a moment.

The expression of the Demon King changed clearly.

Until then, in a bright atmosphere where you don't hate it, this demon king might be able to make sense of it. What kind of feeling disappears.

Somehow... my face is completely dead. I'm almost angry... but I'm almost faceless. Are you looking at something worthless?

Oh, this guy looks like this, too.

Such a gentle demon king who praises the courageous senpai slashed from behind and protects me when I'm about to be shot from behind.

The demon king was so angry.

"...... Shit, they're useless at all. Civilians, after all."

Well, what if you try to fight?

The next moment, the Demon King disappeared from his sight and heard that unspeakable voice tone from the loudspeaker.

Along with the voice of the Commander, the voice of the Devil arrived.

From there... the Demon King was clearly hostile to the Commander.

That appearance was completely different from mine.

You're the one who ordered the barista launch. That was definitely a soldier. "

My colleagues looked at me and at the thick arrows that the Demon King had stopped at my feet.

Definitely me.

Weren't you going to hit the soldiers in the first place? Otherwise, you wouldn't say that. I mean... he was putting pressure on me from a high safety zone to attack me. "

The moment I heard the words, the electric shock ran.

When I raised my face unexpectedly, everyone around me opened their eyes and looked at me.

Ah... well... this isn't just about me...

"Nah, what...? Hey, hey! Fight, you guys!

As a rule of thumb, that reaction was from Tustar.

I see. Without the Demon King, my life would have been exhausted just to blow up my colleagues...

Hold it.

The Guardian Knights around are defeated and only that man remains.

The battle was at its best.

"Cuki-san, you're angry....."

Soon the child of Dark Elves, who was nearby, murmured as he looked up at the wall.

I wonder if he's talking to himself. And I think that unknown name is the demon king.

"Haven't you ever been so angry?

Somehow, I can't see my enemies anymore, and I'm spontaneously speaking up.

I was a little surprised, but you normally returned the words... because the Dark Elves themselves are on the side of humans.

The anomaly is that we are hostile to the Dragon Clan and the Dark Elves.

"Recently, I wonder if it was like when I was hostile to Satan....."

"... eh?

"Cuki-san and Satan fought. Cuki-san was an unharmed supremacy."

... ah, the demon kings are really fighting each other.

And that cuckoo killed Satan, who once killed the brave man.

The dragon lady with green hair also joined the conversation naturally.

Well, I wanted to see it too.

"It was so cool! Avoid all attacks without looking at the opponent!

Yeah... why is there so much difference?

That Demon King is not half as good, and even the same Demon King opponent is completely different.

"Ahhh, I didn't realize I could hear this voice!"

Finally, the red-haired woman groans with surprise.

"I'm just a little nervous, I wish I could be a little more calm. Fufu, I'll be embarrassed to tell you later. Oh, you're a little stupid, aren't you?"

This woman, who didn't get to the point at all, started lowering the Demon King. I was surprised because it was quite straightforward.

This person seems to be the strongest of all. I don't think this man can win alone.

"One knight is a knight's praise."

The battle against the Wall finally ended with the Commander.

However, it seems that the opponent could not shake and wave his sword after all, even if he was so prepared.

Only the sound of the dropped sword spreads emptily into the square.

And the battle is over, and the word of the demon king continues.

"... fu. I'm not forcing you to do something you can't do."

Well, from the standpoint of a demon king, that kind of thing....

Oh, I'm willing to say it back. Fine, but... "

In that appearance, I saw what I had once forgotten.

"--I accommodated my medicine, cooked a meal, and got my approval. I've flaunted my strength when I don't know, but I've never used violence to build a relationship of trust."

I don't suppose you're lying.

In fact, I can see the atmosphere of the member who is one of the Demon King's companions.

If you're brainwashing, you can't have a rude subordinate like a red-haired woman.

In fact, that's why I told you that everyone didn't follow me.... and, yeah. Now that you're really out of your current position, do you think other people can reach out to you?

Of course! My blood-- "

"Can I go all the way in front of the woman who tried to shoot that barista?

……

My life belongs to my parents.

And it's mine.

What I have done is my credit.

Never... never came to be someone else's achievement.

Whether the blood born is noble.

Whether it is worthy of respect.

And... be a hero or not.

There's no way it's gonna happen, Bokeh.

"Hero."

I murmur and nod as if everyone around me got the same answer.

I know that too. If it's a Vealino boy, I've definitely read it once.

A story of heroes lined up in bravery. Yearning for it, we took the sword.

"Oh yeah, that's the hero."

"Yes, that's the hero. A hero who was born of nobility and became a hero with the power of money, not a fake doll."

"A story hero who grew up to defend the city with one arm!

"From being unacceptable in a different way to being accepted, heroes who have remained sincere!

We're getting louder and louder.

It was the breakdown of the embankment of our adventurers' hearts, which has been used by the military in the blocked city of Vealino.

The definition of justice.

Heroic qualities.

What are the conditions for anyone to admire?

"Being a hero, it wasn't born!

"Being brave is not a profession!

"You will help the weak and frustrate the strong!

"Be proud of your position!

I didn't have to consult with her, and everyone had answers.

I just forgot when I was an adult.

... I was deceived by the rhetoric of becoming an adult.

After all, we were just running away from our heroic qualities.

Everyone gave up.

That's why they told me and understood.

Yes, it is.

"--That's what makes you a hero!

I raised my sword high and shouted.

The people around me shout all at once.

From the gap in the wall, I saw a naked middle-aged man with no majesty.

The moment the Demon King stepped down from the wall, everyone paved the way for the three Demon King parties.

I tell the dark elf girl who gets stunned.

Say hello to Veolino.

The red-haired woman returned the word.

"Yeah, I'll take care of it."

This guy's full of confidence, and he's obviously not a normal guy. I'm sure he's also a hero.

When I thought about it... all of a sudden, I was struck by surprise.

"It doesn't matter at all, but I might apply to you for a friend, Master Ponzi, so give up and get along with me."

"... what?

"That second-generation Belphegor is so persistent ~"

While laughing joyfully, the woman took the two of them and walked towards the demon king.

No, I'm a friend of an adventurer... yeah...?

At the end of the day, they said something terrible.

"You're in love with my aunt....."

I finally realized my partner was back next door.

No, I really overdid it.

"But... do you know how it feels?"

Yeah, we're Veolino people after all. The guy next door was one of the heroes.

Still... I can't imagine that incredible demon king coming all the way to be my friend...

I'm at the edge of a tree, really. It's not a proportionate position.

But I thought it might be a hero's qualities to be that easy.

And somehow... now that all the shoulders are down, I guess.

I wonder if that demon king has any friends.
