It fits when the date is already about to change.
A few hours ago the banquet, which is taking place in Goto, has already ended, and the inhabitants of the village will by now be in a peaceful sleep in their own homes.
The same is true of those whom Dusker took, all but a few knights who had been entrusted with escorts just in case, healing the fatigue of the journey in their tents.
In the meantime...... the figure of the Dasker at the heart was not in the tent, but in the Seremouth plains away from Goto.
Naturally, I didn't get here alone. Others are Ray, Seto, Vihera, Minn, and Rodos.
... and at the end of Rays' gaze are Elk and Theorem.
Until a few hours ago, the cloud covered the sky, but now that cloud has also disappeared as if frightened by the killing and struggle blown out of the elk, only the light of the moon illuminates the earth.
Elk and Theorem facing each other in silence. Each had his own weapon in his hand and was still observing the opponent trying to get some information.
In the meantime, Dusker steps forward and opens his mouth.
"Now we're going to start a duel between Elk and Theorem. There will be things we think of each other, but don't leave any remorse behind after this battle."
Two people nodding silently at the words.
Confirming that, Dusker nods small...... eventually tells him out loud as it sounds all around him.
"Begin!"
"Whoa, whoa, whoa!
"Huh!?
Elk kicking the ground at the same time that the start was signaled.
It's also my alias, and I pack my distance from Theorem as I wield a big thunderous god axe that became my party name.
A leading must-win. What I intend to do was obvious when I saw the shaken thundergod axe discharging.
"Ahhh!
Mood flashes.
That blow, wielded with thunder, strikes Theorem with speed and sharpness that is not very much but I don't think it is wielding a giant axe.
But Theorem is also someone with a flashing alias. There is no way to eat such a deadly blow in silence, falling back the moment the thunder god's axe is waved down.
Boom!
The moment the thunder god's axe was slammed to the ground, the ground exploded.
... Yes, it exploded in a literal sense.
Soil, stones and grass scattered around. Or Seremus Plains with a lot of undead. Something like bone shards splash around them.
Naturally more than in that state, they jump backwards to Theorem, who dodged the blow now, and wave their swords as well, just as they interfere with that dirt that covers their sight.
A flash worthy of a flashing blow.
Instead of air, it was a blow to the horizontal giraffe as if it were slashing and tearing the object apart in space, but even elk it is a famous adventurer. Without seeing much of that blow, he gets aggressive in the axed patterned part of the Thunder God by years of adventurer inquiry.
Gin, the metal sound echoed around...... but the next moment the elk barked with the long sword and axe patterned parts bumping into each other.
"Whoa, whoa!
If you can't destroy the blade of the long sword you were taking with a powerful blow in the axe pattern part, you can stay strong.
But Theorem, who instantly spotted it, pulls out the power that was in his sword.
At the same time, the appearance of Theorem, which flies greatly backwards.
He used the Elk's power to leap backwards without breaking a long sword.
Two people staring at each other after a few meters of distance as it is.
Observe each other still as if they explore each other's gaps.
In the meantime, repeat the movement of the weapon each is holding, or a fine fence, such as the shoulder or foot.
It would just seem almost silent to the amateur. But fortunately, it was everyone here who had more than some strength.
The least powerful is Rhodos, a rank C adventurer, because even for Rhodos, he understood the silent rush taking place between Elk and Theorem, not all of it.
A few minutes to repeat the feints that each other tried to catch each other in that way.
Hating to waste more time like this, the elk that cut the paralysis opens its mouth.
"I'll do it pretty good, huh? The alias flash is not Dade."
"There you are. Rumor has it, the famous Thunder God's Axe, has made me feel cold watching his power so close."
"Heh, well said.... It's just that even though you have all that strength, you can't forgive me for doing dirty imitations like taking hostages in the back, right?
You wanted to say that word from the beginning, not a word with the meaning of provocation.
At the same time as you mouth it that far, a thick killer spills out of the elk's body as if it were even viscous.
The killing spirit was a reproduction of what emanated from the carriage when Elk came to Goto.
Intense killing, which also feels as if the killing itself has materialized.
But when it comes to the murderous Theorem, although it stretches his face, there's nothing more to it than that.
It's probably because it's a theolame with the alias flash around here.
If this is a normal soldier, knight, adventurer, etc., it can definitely mean that you can't move... because if you do poorly, you will be put to death and your heart will stop.
"I don't know about it personally, but Hate and I are not adventurers, but generals. Let me choose if it's less dangerous, even if it's dirty, than carrying the lives of my men and the name of the Bestian Empire."
Teolame speaks majestically while countering Elk's unleashed killings.
But I guess that extra touched Elk's wrath. I look hard enough to see blood vessels coming out of my forehead.
"Huh, no kidding! You can tell the difference between what you can do and what you can do wrong!
Stepping in as if to leave the vomited and discarded words on the spot, he packs an intermission with Theorem and wields the thunderous god's axe wide.
Previous attacks have also been so powerful that they have been too powerful, but this one was such a blow that I wanted to say what the attack had been so far.
I guess you decided it was a lower measure to take it than it was that much of a blow. Theorem waves a long sword as if to sew a gap in the attack to be wielded, while focusing on dodging.
Exactly the elk that launches a series of attacks like a storm, as well as the teolame that fires a blow as if it were going to poke that gap... both just have aliases, and Rhodos manages to attack, prevent, divert, dodge, and play at a rate that he can follow with his eyes.
"... elk is sweet too"
Rhodos turns his gaze reflexively to that word squealed from the mouth of Pottori and Dusker.
If it was Ray who uttered the word, he probably would have eaten it.
But only Dusker, the lord of the guilds on which we are based, speaks for a moment.
And it was Ming, whose mother was also the one who opened her mouth in place of her son.
"You can certainly say it's sweet. But that's what Elk is all about, and that's why I trust Elk."
"Sure. I agree with that."
Ray nodding to agree with Min's words.
You will naturally receive a wide variety of requests than being an adventurer. Some of them take a fatal blow by involving their allies if they are not ruthless.
... Yes. Like Theorem did, for example, taking my family hostage.
I guess I figured that out. I put up with Rhodos biting his back teeth and continuing his words.
I was caught in the first place. I'm not in a position to say anything like that.
The intense rewards of Elk and Theorem continue even while Rhodos is troubled in his heart.
"Son of a bitch, fuck you. Eh!
Along with such a cry, the axe of the Thunder God waves at the horizontal giraffe without breaking the torso of Theorem if it hits it properly.
Slash and tear the air... No, Theorem leaps back and dodges that blow that hits him as he destroys it.
I can't take it. This would be a major disadvantage for Theorem in this fight.
Theorame and General of the Bestian Empire, alias Flash. Naturally, the long sword in its hand was forged by a blacksmith who can also be called a famous worker, and if it is like a halfway demon sword around it, it receives it with absolutely no problem, and on the contrary has the sharpness to be able to slash and even tear itself apart.
But what we're dealing with now is a Rank A Adventurer, the Axe of Thunder God.
The weapon in his possession was an elk that became an alias as, and the weapon was also a very advanced type of magic item.
Naturally, if you take that weapon, you can't stand a long sword. That's why Theorem can only avoid Elk's attacks.
Or Theorem's own attack, too, could destroy the long sword only if he did poorly when it was taken in the blade part of the thunder god's axe, and careful attention needed to be paid to matching the blades.
I was proud to have more health than normal Theorem, but every time I could cross a single blade, they cut my mental strength.
"Guh!"
Though he dodged the deadly blow by leaping backwards, lightning strikes as the Thunder God's axe is named, and Theoreme's leather armor burns black.
Naturally, the blow extends to the body, and the movement is dull for a moment, although it jumped backwards.
Axe of the Thunder God. While the blow was powerful, the more troublesome part was the thunder emitted from the axe.
The thunder tongue stretches, even if avoided by critical cuts, gradually eroding its body, depriving it of paralysis, reduced speed of reaction, or even strength due to paralysis.
If you're dealing with a normal enemy, a slightly disadvantaged blow.
But the paralysis and reduced speed of response in dealing with strong people like Elk was also fatal.
"Ku, la... Yeahhh!
Heading to Theorem, where the movement stopped for a moment, Elk, who decided this was his biggest opportunity, packs the distance at once with Thunder God's axe on him.
Theorem decides it is impossible to dodge the blow of the axe to be waved, and shields the long sword at least for all the evil upset.
Gimp!
Such a sound echoes around the perimeter, the long sword breaks in the middle of its full body and its tip flies through the sky as it rotates.
You must have understood that I broke my body just in response. Elk does not follow its destination with his gaze, but waves the axe of the Thunder God...... and waves it down as if it were going to crush the head of Theorem.
Everyone who was on the spot would have thought that this battle could be fought by Theorem's death.
But... for some reason, the thunderous god's axe is lowered to stop the movement in places such as whether or not the blade touches the head of the Theorem.
Allows for inch stopping, even though he swung it down with full force. Again, it was only with the extraordinary power of elk that this happened.
"... Huh? Why?"
Why did you stop the axe on the way? It was Rhodos whining unexpectedly without knowing that, but the question clears up in Ray's words.
"Rodos, look at Elk's throat. That way we can see why the attack stopped."
Rodos following that word and gazing into Elk's throat.
I guess Min also couldn't figure out why his own husband stopped attacking. Turn your gaze to the elk, just like Rhodos... to the throat, which is forged out and covered in thick and muscle, and see the blade of the dagger being poked.
"Is that... when?
"It's when they broke my long sword. That's when I let go of my long sword and pulled the dagger out of my nose and poked it."
"Right. Even from my eyes, I took the dagger out pretty fast. It just has a flash alias."
"That's not why flashing is an alias..."
I agree with Ray's words so that Dusker can be convinced and correct them with Vihera smiling bitterly.
It's a soothing atmosphere somewhere that way, I guess, because I decided the fight was over.
In fact, when Elk only moves his eyes and gazes at the dagger that is stuck against his neck muscle, he returns to hand the axe of the Thunder God, which had stopped moving a few centimeters in the head of Theorem, whispering his nose abominably.
"... Phew"
To that appearance, Theorem exhales unexpectedly in relief.
It was a battle that seemed mutually by some looks, but in fact it was always a battle in which Elk took the lead, and it was almost by chance that I was able to bring myself into the draw in this way.
Still, it would be a pleasure to make it teolame, because it was possible to survive perhaps the most difficult battle of this time.
Though it hurt to get a broken love sword that I liked a lot.
"... ma, fine. This doesn't mean I totally forgive you, but I did. But remember. Next thing you know, try to get your hands on my family. Now, don't imitate inches, but I'll slap the thunder god's axe all over his pretty face."
"Let's be bold."
Theorem nods back small to Elk's words as if to convince himself.
But if I really needed to, I wouldn't hesitate to use the same hand. With that in mind.
