Monster no Goshujin-sama

Twenty-three.

It was close to a miracle at this time that I was kept conscious.

I thought my whole body was shattered, but it has hands and legs somehow.

It was the gift of Lily and her desperate devotion.

Nevertheless, there were limits to that as well.

"Ah... gu..."

The "Rose's Sword" I received from Rose and kept in my nostalgia had an unprecedented fever.

In response to the Lord's crisis, it has the slightest effect of reducing damage.

The fever seemed like he was trying to protect his owner somehow or appealing for him to escape.

But either way, I didn't listen to my body anymore.

There, there was a footsteps of despair.

I found him, Mashima.

It was none other than Kojiro Nakatsuki who stepped into the trail of repeated destruction from ground to ground.

"... why"

I couldn't believe it.

When you loosened up the other world, you must have bounced it pretty far.

And how did you know where we were?

In the first place, I didn't neglect the perimeter vigilance in "The Misty Vault"...

... No.

Could it be - and come to think of it, I was wary.

Wouldn't it be strange if he were the same 'connector' as I am if he had sensory abilities similar to the Tiger Child's magic 'Misty Vault'?

It's bigger than me, too.

That's why he was able to sense the subject and knock in the attack.

The young man in the sweet mask stopped at a distance from us.

Unattackable distance for this one.

For the alien powers of his "Sword of Light," Special Interment.

Nevertheless, I wouldn't have put my foot together, worrying about such a small thing.

To the point where I could be so sure, the glitch was heroic.

There is no cloudiness in the glowing appearance.

All I'm saying is there's nothing behind it, like a dark place.

It remains a natural thing that attracts people somewhere, and I've spoken to them.

"I didn't think you'd get away with it at that time. Besides, I can't 'connect'. Ha. You did this, didn't you?

One of the 'cornerstones of the world' was held in his hand.

At that moment when he was ejected from the other world, he was tickled with one.

If it was meant to be, it would have ended at the time he got it.

Now that my power as a 'connector' and the will left behind by the first brave men are stoppers, the 'King of Disasters' has yet to hold the world in his hands.

Not yet.

... but what does that mean?

This situation is packed.

It's over.

Us, too.

And the world.

That's what I thought.

"Exactly, Mashima"

- I don't understand this man.

"After all, you're fine. Excellent."

There was a slight excitement in the voice that said so.

Hostilities are decisive and hold even life and death.

Even so, over the course of this period, the gaze directed at this one was dominated by an unmixed favor.

"Honestly, this time it was a complete failure. I wasn't going to fight Mashima without all the power. Speaking of this time only, I would have been glad if I had fought all I could against the Shrine Temple of the Limit Value, which has rounded everything up."

Again, I don't know.

"'Dragonman' was on a good line, but not on a satisfactory level. Well, that's fine. It's a prediction. The worst part was that everything was exposed by such a crappy coincidence. A runoff of defensive mechanisms in different worlds. I would have survived, but when I thought Mashima was going to die, I defended him aggressively. You couldn't take care of him because he found out who he was. It's a really boring development. bottom of my heart, disappointed."

Really, I don't know.

"But you made it through that place. Oh. After all, you're 'real'."

"... why"

Finally, I pinched my mouth.

"How could you do this? If you had so much power, you could have done anything."

It was heartfelt, strange.

There's always room, there's nothing to worry about, a leader who solves everything wrong and has the power to save everything in his eyes.

Some kind of ideal that I once admired myself.

Again, no matter what I thought, I couldn't understand what was going on anymore because there was no reason for him to set everything aside for any reason other than malice, and I couldn't feel that malice.

... On the contrary, it may be possible that we can do something about this situation if we understand it.

At least, the conversation is in place.

I just have to find hope ahead of the conversation than I've been cornered so far.

I swallowed the saliva with a taste of blood, and I cast my doubt.

"You wanted to be a god too? No. But if you... you didn't have to do this, you didn't have to struggle so hard with a positive offense, and you couldn't be anything?

That's all the potential there is for a man named Kojiro Nakatsuki.

Sweep the world as a hero without any further difficulty by the uninterrupted power of knowledge gained by the transfer.

Given the charisma that gave them full control of the expedition and the power of control that did not cause them any problems, at least as long as they were under control, it should have been no joke that slowly it was a development entrusted with the management of the world by the Cathedral Church.

Even if not, I would have been able to proceed more secretly and secretly without taking such forceful means.

I really thought so.

Well, that's why...

"'Cause that's' boring ', isn't it?

- The answer was beyond my imagination.

"... don't you?

The answer came back, but I don't understand.

I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.

What, this is...

I no longer only look like a monster with a man in front of me snatching people.

And maybe it wasn't a mistake.

"Hey, Mashima said I could do anything right now. Yeah. I'm not denying it. I can do anything I want. It's been that way ever since I got my mind on it."

To my mind, this was the first time I had heard that fact from our mouth.

Knowing him well, Mr. Hada said, 'The world is different'.

He even said that it was because he was there that he was transferred to another world and that everyone else just got involved.

The first brave man also described him as an 'unexpected irregular'.

He also said it was a product of results equal to 50,000 years of repeated trials and that it was unlikely that a homogeneous presence would emerge in the next 50,000 years.

If you don't know anything, it sounds like a big deal.

You might even think of it as something stupid.

But it's not.

That's not true.

That's only true at all.

But... yes. Yes, it is.

As for the gaze of 'how the person in question receives it', it has been lacking so far.

If you think about it now, maybe you should have thought about it a little better there.

Because even though 'the living world is different', 'being in the same world' means nothing more than... 'wrong with the world you were born into'.

"I'm bored. I don't feel alive."

The words spoken were too dry.

"I have one thing I doubt. For those who know the truth about the world, 'this world' is unstable and can be undermined. But where's the guarantee that the world we were in wasn't?

……

"Why did we come to this world? For once, isn't that because 'that world' couldn't be done? We have fallen into 'this world' from 'that world', where there is no organization like the Cathedral Church that resists doom and is breaking down. Isn't that a possibility? Because..." That World "is more than" This World "can do. Isn't that why 'It's Like Me' was born?

The shitty words were like screams.

Indeed, it is unclear what caused us to come to this world.

It doesn't even seem to be figured out.

But so far, I've heard all kinds of opinions.

For example, 'Someone has a summoner in this world' or 'This world that perishes has summoned the Savior'.

But this was the first time I had heard the opinion that 'there was a problem with the world I was in'.

Is that why?

I thought of one terrible thing.

Unknown genius.

An all-powerful hero.

Everyone praised Kojiro Nakatsuki as such.

But for a moment, I wonder if the young man in front of me was' not in those days'.

Wasn't it something more 'nasty' than that?

A bug created by that world where I was.

If that was the monster by the name of Kojiro Nakatsuki...

There is no basis for denying it.

And just the grounds to affirm it.

I don't know if it's true.

The only thing I was sure of was that the monster in front of me thought so.

"That's why I wanted to go to another world."

"... another, world?

"It's fantasy. Even so, it's not an easy transition cheat. 'Cause it's boring, you know? Difficulties unlikely in real life. Stuck monsters. It's worth trying, eating my teeth, and finally winning."

Was it because you could do anything that you could rush into what you could gain by overcoming difficulties?

"Oh, no. Of course, it's not like you don't know it's not real. But I wanted it. I wanted it. I kept hoping. And - Oh. A miracle happened. Impossible became a reality. I've come to another world."

……

For us, transworld metastases were nothing but disasters.

As a result, although I was able to meet Lily and the others, it was.

The otherworldly metastasis itself was nothing but a disaster.

But I guess not for the man in front of me.

An unexpected and fortunate event.

Or... other possibilities were considered.

I had assumed that "that world", where we were, was not moving under the same laws as "this world", where wishes had power.

But surely, there is no such guarantee anywhere.

Then, hey, it's the monster's desire to 'go to another world' in front of him that could even have caused that massive transfer.

To make impossible dreams a reality.

"Yes, I've come to another world. I thought the adventure was about to begin."

What did he get as a result?

An achievement of hope that kept burning.

Did you get hope?

... No. It shouldn't have been either.

Because this is a 'world in which the strength of desire helps'.

The qualities of the first place are broken.

If so, it is the immense length of hope that keeps me wishing that makes him omnipotent in this world.

Desperate for everyone.

"Ha. Funny, isn't it? Rather, the situation worsened. I became a 'connector'. I didn't need that kind of power. If I could do everything in my power to overcome my difficulties, I'd be glad to..."

……

Understood.

But I couldn't empathize.

I couldn't have done it.

Because that's what I am, a normal person who can't do.

Just cut off the fact that what I kept wishing for from the bottom of my heart was ruined and imagine the despair that was there... I could have had as much sympathy.

Nevertheless, such emotions, the man in front of him, were not necessary.

Whatever despair he is, if he is a hero because he overturns it, he deserves that title.

For better or worse.

"So I decided to think the other way around. I can't help myself anymore. There is no hope. But if you don't, 'just make it'. It was easy."

"... Huh?

I felt bloody sick.

I had a terrible bad feeling.

I don't want to hear it.

But that was unacceptable.

"Everybody says I'm special, but I believe in everybody. I'm not special, guys, I'm sure you'll get here one day. I wouldn't abandon him now, even if he didn't have any prospects. Anyone can. I'm here for you. Look to purpose, think seriously, make decisions about things, and move decisively. That way, anyone can get there someday. If it were for everyone, I could. Because I believe so."

I'm saying good things.

It should be.

And yet, I don't feel like I'm being told something terrible.

"Of course, you can't just live caricaturally. Everything is, but in order to reach heights, it takes corresponding steps. I know how to do that. Yeah. I know you very well. That's what I was in a hurry for. You know what I mean?

A man laughs.

"Yes. It's hard. It is the difficulty of standing up that lifts people to heights. The one who has overcome the difficulties can go up there, as long as it is dangerous, as long as it is horrible, as long as it is unbroken, as long as it is unbroken. So I did."

The only smile that floated was anticipation and favor for others, and thus disastrously -

"Poor seven hundred students who failed to demonstrate their abilities. Beat them all to hell, and I'm sure there's someone who can crawl up and shine, right?

- All the culprits were there.

"In fact, Mashima has overcome numerous difficulties. I told you, I'm a fan of yours. I've been paying attention. Ever."

"Oh, before..."

My consciousness stains white.

My heart pumped blood and my head simmered.

The memory of a tragedy remembered like rage exploded as the sight of hell pushed a person to fall into a subhuman existence.

"You! The culprit of the colony collapse......!

Now I understand. Finally figured it out.

Kojiro Nakatsuki has always favoured us.

He seemed to believe in others.

It wasn't the truth, it wasn't a lie.

I just couldn't help but be reminded that there was a difference in values there that I couldn't even imagine.

And there was another thing I had to understand.

That meant it was impossible to convince this man in conversation.

You miss me because I have a crush on this one - no way.

Rather, it is because of his fondness that this man will be hostile with all his might.

And mourn after it's crushed.

He just wanted to do everything he could to smash it, and he didn't want it to smash it.

"I'm glad you understand."

"... Gu"

Finally, I was able to grasp the situation.

But it also turned out to be hopeless.

I can't give up, but what can I do?

That's what I thought, and my voice went up.

"So far... I guess"

There was a man who stood up, making noises.

"Yes, but. Master... thanks to you, you've earned time."

"Bullshit... that was worth hearing"

At the same time Lily said it, Robbie woke herself up.

He managed to move while I was talking.

Nevertheless, Lily's figure of thanksgiving did not keep the girl's already.

The half-slimed body is a manifestation of the fact that it is no longer even capable of simulation.

I can't do battles or anything decent.

Robbia, who was protecting me in the rear guard, is better, but that's only fifty hundred steps too.

Blood was flowing from his head as he jerked off, his gaze indefinitely blurred.

Including me, I'm either stunned or stunned.

Still, they don't give up the possibility.

"I'm stuck... and then Robbie..."

"... oh"

Lily, who moved to drag the spear, rushed out ready to die.

Shaking his head fluttered, Robbie fell back to grab his falling companion and escape.

"Not yet..."

I tried to gather my magic without, in order to use the magic of the fog that dazzled me.

I won't give up until the end.

You can't give up.

But... oh, I can't do this.

Kojiro Nakatsuki looked at us desperately trying to resist.

Don't lose, don't be frustrated, just say.

At the same time as supporting you, that one hand is unleashing a special light sword.

There's no blame, no relief, and now he's laughing at me to let him survive.

That light seldom rips Lily apart and ravages us as we are.

Thoughts are trampled.

Resolute, for no reason, does not receive a wish.

That's reality.

This was the cruel world.

... if so.

The demon king, who swore to destroy the world, could not have watched it in silence.

I won't let you.

I heard a quiet twinkle.

I will never forget this time.
