My Skills Are Too Strong to Be a Heroine

Landing ② Reunion and river character

"I'm sorry, oneechan, oniichan, this is the only thing I can make right now, but for at least thanking you..."

"Oh, rice!! I'm coming!

Yes, I'll take it.

As the sun goes down and the cool air is extinguished, it surrounds the fire in the warm furnace.

Takao and I have been having a touching reunion called onigiri, which has been a long time since we were flown to another world.

A simple sardine-shaped seaweed that is not wrapped around the seaweed spreads a slight sweetness that is nostalgic to the mouth.

Oh, Rice, 80% of the Japanese body is rice, rice arise....

Instead of the ingredients, it wasn't even shaken with salt, but the original taste of rice is enough to win a big round. The triumphal parade begins in your mouth, and you're walking through the esophagus like a herd...

"Wow, this oneechan's crying... you're so hungry..."

"I wonder...."

"No, this oneechan is almost always like this."

Never mind, Takao smiled as he ate the rice grains on his fingers.

We are in a thatched house with a sense of history standing in a bamboo forest slightly off the centre of Akatsuki, a town in the middle of the island.

Akatsuki is a town that resembles Japan a little bit, or rather retro, as it appears in the theater of the times. It was small in size and somehow had an atmosphere close to villages and settlements.

The people in the town seemed to be living indifferently, not to think they were ruled by the demons, and they didn't particularly welcome us from the outside, but rather went barely with the eyes that they had not expected at all.

The children who helped on the beach - brothers, 9-year-old brother Izuru and 3-year-old brother Tori - looked at the people in such a town and pulled us by a small hand and guided us to this house.

"It was delicious, thank you for your meal. Even though you're still young, you're good at gripping rice balls."

"Yeah... our mother was good."

"... that's why..."

As he leaned down, Izuru slapped Tori on the head.

"... I see.

Nevertheless, I've heard that many of the Akatsuki people in this workshop are clever, but you seem exceptional. Sensei "

Even though Takao shook the conversation, the teacher was silently sharpening without responding. A knife.

"... what if I make you fat?

"I don't think so. Never mind. Eat."

Wow! Yes!

For a moment, the rice disturbance in my mouth started to extinguish the fire, but I began chewing rice balls I held in both hands, sweetly to Takao's words.

This house is not yours. It is said to be the residence and workshop of Shibora-sensei, an old man with a silent white beard who grinds a knife lightly a little away from the hearth.

The teacher is a craftsman who makes blades for sale outside town stores and the island, and he seems to be famous for his skill in Wang Dynasty.

However, they are famous for their dislikes, and they live solemnly by standing in a bamboo forest that is not popular and even smelting blades.

I can't help but fall in love with the countless knives, mackerel, mackerel, sickle and so on that are adorned on the wall.

The teacher's work seems to have excellent sharpness, but the blade is even more beautiful. It's sparkling like a jewel and looks like an artwork.

Slipping your eyes against the wall...

…………

At the highest point, one of the blades embellished in the center caught my eye.

"That's...."

"Ah, that's the teacher's masterpiece! But it's not for sale, and the teacher is not going to let anyone touch it. You're definitely sharp.

Hey, Doctor, when I grow up and get stronger, will you let me have it?

"No."

"Phew...."

I couldn't help but notice Professor Saibura, who spoke for the first time since I met him.

I was staring at the beautiful Japanese sword.

It glowed too brilliantly and the whole thing looked like a white blade.

There are also various things in white. White clouds. White flowers. White rice.

But I'm sure this is...

"Wow, that's a beautiful white snow."

To tell you the truth, the teacher laid Cotton and a knife on the floor - probably the first time he saw me.

"That means there's rice on this island, there's paddy fields."

"That's right! It belongs to us who have been protecting it for generations.

And yet the demons of the house told me to crush the fields and build a chocolate factory!

"Nhh!

I was furious at the words of my brother, who was angry with me with his hands and feet.

What the hell is that evil Willie Wonka guy!? Paddy is a rice sweet home, and crushing it is worth dying for!!

"But the chocolate factory is not guilty, so I'm in favour of building it on empty land!

"Amamiya-san, everyone's out...

The demons who rule this island seem to have a different taste than the demons we met before. "

The two demons who govern this town… 'Twin Demons' Chess and Ocero are declaring that they like to remodel the island as their own private property.

"For now, they haven't done anything terrible on the condition that everyone in town give a gift... even though the people who went into the mountains were turned back."

Isle says with regret. They say that the twins are occupying a large mountain near the town, which accounts for half of the island.

And it seems that people in the town are demanding everything from the town's specialties - food, to crafts made of shellfish and bamboo - at the whim of the time, and doing everything in their luxury.

They were building something in the mountains, sometimes demanding labor. They are also hostages.

Isle, your mother was taken to the mountain the other day.

"They just want to use it, so I think Mom's safe... but we're worried.

And yet the people of the town are used to this wrong safety and won't fight. That's crazy. "

Yoo-hoo!

Although it is a minority, it seems that the resistance advocates who are trying to fight the demons have gathered with Professor Sibala and are waiting for the time to come.

Some of them have already been retaliated against.....

"... we're going to the mountains again tomorrow. The Demons are whimsical creatures. Even if they were now accepting distorted rest, they still don't seem to suddenly lose their fangs. I'm worried about the people who got caught."

"I'm not going in the mountains."

Takatomi watched what Sensei Saibara said. While staring at the fire in the hearth, the teacher quietly told him without changing his expression.

"There is a gatekeeper at the entrance to the mountain. No one will be allowed to step into that cave."

"Gatekeeper...? A beast?

"No, human, this is the gatekeeper."

It was unusual for him, but Takao lowered his eyebrows to say that it was difficult and difficult to understand.

I can't tell you what Takao doesn't understand, so please wait for the next word.

"He stood at the entrance of the mountain, a strong wall against both sides, to stop reckless humans entering the mountain from the mountain, and to stop the beasts trying to go down from the mountain to the mountain. Alone."

"I'm stopping the beast by myself....? That kind of thing... Who is he?"

"I don't know, I don't really know. An exotic figure, an eccentric with exotic values."

But strong, and, said Professor Sibala.

He named himself the brave man who saved the world.

"... I fell asleep. You must be tired, being careful while protecting your brother...

Amamiya-san, where are you?

"Already. Fufu, you're still three years old. It's cute, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh"

With that, Tori snaps his cheeks as he breathes softly into his chest. Then I rubbed my cheeks to make it sweet.

I'm still a brother who misses his mother, but I'm really working hard.

Later in the evening, I decided to borrow Dr. Saibara's house for one night in preparation for tomorrow's entrance.

However, there was no space on the narrow floor to lay our futon, and Takao and Izuru and Tori became close to each other and slept in the futon.

Koyuan looked at the sleeping Izuru's head with love, and slapped him like he said good night. [M]

Even though you're supposed to be the only child, your overwhelming oniichan temperament is just Takao. I have no choice but to respect my youngest children.

"Hey Takao-kun, what we talked about earlier...."

"Oh, Hanaki-san or Tanohae-kun, I don't think there's a line. According to the teacher, he came to the island alone, and I don't think those two are going to do anything else."

Yeah, I agree. Mayan's [giant] skill was perfect for the image of a gatekeeper, but even if that Taichiro dies, there's no way to forgive Mayan being left alone.

That means.....

"The fifth brave man, eh...."

Aria Amamiya, Shinya Takao, Maya Hanaki, Taichiro Tanohami, and the other.

How many righteous young people does that god scout for a black-conditioned adventure when they die in return for nothing?

It's quite crazy for a brave group of people to respond comfortably with that.

Well, I came here on my own initiative, so it's a little different...

"I wonder what kind of person he is?

"To hear the story, I seem to think this town is nice... but I don't want you to go through the mountains.

Maybe it'll force you, but it'll make you retreat. "

Takao lay down his eyes in frustration. [M]

We've hurt a lot of wild beasts and beasts to live, but I think they're the same people and people who lived in the original world, and I have a lot of resistance to fight.

"If you talk to me, you'll understand, because we're supposed to have the same purpose."

"... that's right. I also want to feel like Amamiya-san...."

Takao said that kind of lonely. Next to that, Izul-kun turns around while he talks. [M]

I stare at Tori, who sleeps in his chest. [M] Fufufu, I laughed.

"What? What's wrong?

"Hmm, I wonder if it's like this."

"What?

Hmm. When you become a mother. "

For some reason, Takao turned big and his face turned bright red, opening and closing his mouth.

Oh, calm Takao-kun's impatient face, this rare thing was worshipped again, and I gently saved it in the Takao-kun album of my heart.

But I was worried about tomorrow and I couldn't sleep very well.

... I had one concern.

Suppose I defeated the brave man and put him in the mountain safely. Am I going to be able to help Takao in the battle against the Wicked Beast Cave and the powerful Demon Clan? Wouldn't you pull your legs?

A bow will always hit you if you shoot it. However, I realized that some magic beasts were protected by a hard or resilient epidermis so hard that the bow wouldn't stick.

What I can do at that time is throw rocks with suspicious force or bring them directly into a fleshbullet battle.

But I honestly don't know if I can defeat someone with magic.

Yes, to be honest, I was just a little scared right now. 'Cause God said, if he dies, it's over.

I don't know why I've always had such a hard time sleeping on nights like this. Oh, yeah, I've completely forgotten because I've hardly ever been alone like this lately.

"Hey, Takao, talk to me.

"Eh, ah, yeah, talk... ah, talk. How far have we talked before?"

"The wedding and the coronation are almost over."

It's important, so I used my skills to remember. Takao's favorite book. The mysterious story of the brave king who was chosen as the sword of the lake, Caliban.

"Ah, yes - King Arthur, who received the crown, gathered knights from all over the country. Then a shining golden letter appeared on the back of the chair of the round table, informing the king of the name of the brave knight who should sit there."

While listening to Takao's voice, who gently tells the dream story, I began to slip asleep and slowly let go of my consciousness.

Strongly praying not to crush the precious warmth in your arms with the worst sleeping phase.
