Munou To Yobareta Ore, Yottsu No Chikara Wo Eru
Lesson 277: Revenge
"How many and where?
"Three in the south direction from here. It's all solidified. The distance is... about a kilometer."
"South... I guess so"
The three men, Byrne, Alice and Zawan, had received Adid's life, Mei, King of Nieberg, and had infiltrated Rae, arguably the center of the northern warfare.
The place where they are today is a room of collective housing that was located in a residential area on the south side from the town centre, turned into a ghost town by a forceful conscription.
And the southern direction where there was a reaction to Zawan's magic sensing was the direction they would take if they escaped from the town at the shortest distance.
"It's a big reaction, but not as good as this hero. I'm just a little surprised he showed up all of a sudden."
Byrne knew from a long relationship that what Zawan called a "big reaction" or "not as good as himself" was a word referring to a pretty strong enemy.
But what bothered him more than that--
"Suddenly appeared..."
"Oh. All three are sudden at the same time. Thanks to that, I noticed. It should be seen as a spatial transfer system."
"... I guess. Otherwise, you wouldn't have noticed. So, a kilometer away doesn't sound like you're grabbing the exact position. He said he was in formation to keep him out of town."
"Uhm. And yet, why did this place find out? The base must have changed frequently..."
There are currently a number of these districts in Rae besides the residential neighborhoods where they are, and by turning them over, they kept them from grasping their place.
It would not have been a problem if it hadn't made itself known that it was lurking in the first place, but it would have stopped doing so for more than a certain reason.
"That kind of magic, or sensory abilities like yours. Either way, you seem to have fulfilled the conditions in one way or another. Even though he's hiding his face, he did it flashly yesterday..."
"I'm a hero. I'm not gonna overlook that."
"... I know. Assuming you didn't pop up, I would have popped in. I didn't do anything wrong."
"It's getting much worse than when I came forward. This is no longer... a country. Besides, if we don't do something soon, even this world..."
That said, Zawan bites his lips off.
The sight they saw.
It was the scene where a people who opposed the war were about to be executed.
It was frequent and they had stopped them as long as they could reach them and missed the people who were about to be executed out of town.
But naturally I wasn't able to save everything.
"Oh... for that, we have to do this. They found us, but you're lucky we were on the verge of pulling up. We've gathered the information we need, and all traces have been erased. We're getting out of here."
"... um. So, I'll take Alice... Hmm!?
"What's up?
"... more reactions. Circle around here... you're completely surrounded. More than a hundred."
"Suddenly?
"Oh. But not like earlier. As if it were gushing out of the ground... this is... what?
"Magic Sensing", Zawan's skill, increases accuracy the closer you get.
Approaching a radius of up to 100 meters, it was possible to discern what the subject was doing and even the contour of his face from the speed at which he was walking.
Also, no matter how far away you are, once you remember the magic, you can know the general direction.
Once upon a time, when I was on my way to Inhelm, the demonic kingdom, I relied on Zwed's well-known reaction to run through the earth.
"Chip...... more yet? It's almost 200."
Byrne closes his eyes and sharpens his thoughts quietly.
A few seconds later, he opened his mouth at the same time as he opened his lid.
"... you're probably the guy who attacked the Olympus talks and Armenia. He realized there was no point hiding it anymore. All three of your senses are Titanomachia."
Zawan's words, the massive reaction that suddenly appeared, and the fact that this country is already falling into the hands of… Titanomachia.
It was from them that Byrne concluded.
"Huh! Is that why you're here...!
"Relax, hero. The worst thing we can do right now is wipe it out without passing on any information. The communications demon stone will be intercepted, obstructed, so there is no other hand than to bring it directly back. And they have a spatial transfer. How do we know where we are? That's why I'm attracting them. You run to Nieberg carrying Alice. Stay there for a while when you get to the castle. You get it?
"Nooo...!
"Save that anger. Until then. Oh, or are you worried about me?
"No, not at all?
"... ahhh. Now wake up Alice."
"Hahahahahahahahahahaha..."
"Oh."
That's when Alice, dressed in a blanket, rises up, rubbing her sleeping eyes.
"You're half asleep... did you hear what I said?
"Mm-hmm... uh... mostly... Mr. Byrne stays, right? I'll go to Nieberg first with Mr. Zawan and wait in the castle for a while...... so, okay?
"Oh, that's fine..."
"I'll report to Lady Adeed. Okay, Mr. Zawan, please."
"Okay. I'll run as hard as I can, so let's keep my body tied. Alice, a rope, please."
"Okay."
On Zawan's back, Alice secures her body and his body with rope.
Byrne, watching how it was, had a slightly lonely look on his face.
"Since when... nobody's worried about me anymore..."
"Put your hands on your chest and think."
"I'm tired of worrying about Mr. Byrne"
"Yep..."
"Pfft... I'm kidding. I just trust you. Whatever happens... Mr. Byrne will be fine."
"... Yes, sir"
"So is Mr. Zawan, isn't he?
"No? I'm just trying not to think about Byrne anymore though?
"Oh, my God..."
"haha......"
"Mm, it's working. Slowly narrowing the circle. You're going to blur."
"All right, I'll get out first. You guys watch the gap and get out."
Copy that.
"See you, Mr. Byrne... again"
"Oh...... see ya"
That's how Byrne disappeared from the room.
―――――――――――――――――――――
"I feel too cautious."
Fake, standing on the roof of a five-story residence and skipping instructions to the demons he had created, squeaks so with a disgruntled look on his face.
"Oh, my God... they're the" God Killer "and" God Speed "? You forgot the failure of the Olympus talks, Fake?
The woman with glasses standing next to her returned so that she could make a fake as she wrapped her long brown hair around her fingers.
To that word, Fake points his lips.
"No, I didn't forget. I thought we should have gone into it all at once..."
"Fake! This was revenge then! Defeat the God Killer with Liesel, Fake and Chumlit! There's a battle to lose... here it is!
Liselle squeezes her fists and screams so as she moves the cat ears growing out of her head against Fake, who still spills stupidity.
"All right, all right... and Liselle. Isn't that strangely tense, you? Is something wrong?
"Hey, nothing! Liesel's always right!
"Oh... or someone's forgotten by Liesel. You're not the kind of person who cares."
"Wow, don't forget it! It's just that the three of us want to revenge...... Chumlit needs to be more motivated too!
"I'm putting it out... Full open. Full open"
"That's what it looks like..."
"Ever... that's it for nothing. He's coming out... the God Killer."
