Nido Tensei Shita Shounen wa S Rank Boukensha Toshite Heion ni Sugosu ~ Zense ga Kenja de Eiyūdatta Boku wa Raisede wa Jimi ni Ikiru ~

"Wonderful! Wonderful!

When I woke up, Yukino-chan told me that when she saw my face.

"It's Lex. This Yukinojo is impressed by the magnificence of your martial arts skills! Mm-hmm, sure enough, Mina won't be able to admire it. I deserve to be called Kensei!

"No, it's not that big a deal."

No, Kensei is a big title, it's out of proportion to me.

Anyway, the swordsman of my previous life was a bullshit person who cut the mountain with a sword without using magic.

Besides, it's not a special magic sword, it's usually done with dozens of iron swords.

"Don't be modest. Your powers are extraordinary. Hayato also said that. Did you retreat the Magus who attacked us?

Yeah, well...

Even so, I think Mina-san can handle the magician's abilities.

At that time, there was a constraint to protect Prime Minister Yukino and the others, so it was just unfavourable.

"I heard that the legendary magician was used as if it were a child. I've seen a lot of masters in practice, but nothing compared to you. Well done! Thank you, Yukinojo!

"Hah, hah..."

Hmm, it's kind of irritating to be praised so far.

"Hey, isn't it strange how Yukinojo looks? Strangely honest."

"Young people tend to judge things by their strength or weakness... in other words, they admitted that Lex was stronger than they were."

Mina and Harumi are whispering behind me. [M]

"Even if the aristocrats think like that?

"I'm so sorry...."

◆

"I didn't know Magus was involved in this storm...."

After Yukino-chan had settled down, I decided to share the information with Mina. [M]

"Yes, the Magus who attacked the Yukinojo-san was equipped with magic items all over his body. And even with the work we did before, there was a huge disturbance caused by the enormous magic items created by the Magus. That's why I think the same Magus is using magic items to cause a storm this time."

Yukinojo-san and Harumi looked surprised that the cause of the storm, which had spread throughout the country, was said to have been man-made.

"It is true that there was a legendary Magus. Then it would be more convincing to think that the storm was caused by the Magus than to say that the natural phenomenon happened by chance when the ship came out."

"Hmm, that's right..."

They still seemed incredible, but they still believed me more than just being told there was a storm by chance.

"But you don't think the Magus is going to try to kill Yukinojo by causing a senseless storm or riding on a human disturbance."

Mina joined in and urged Yukino and the others to explain the situation.

"So you suspect that the rest of the situation is connected to the purpose of the Magus?

"Rude! Civilians are going to stick their necks in martial arts situations!

Harumi raised his anger when he realized that we wanted to know about Yukino-chan.

Well, as aristocrats, I know I don't want to be exposed to my own circumstances.

But I can't say that in this situation.

Seems that Yukino-chan knows that, so she stopped Haru-sensei.

"Quiet, Harumi. Mina's concerns are natural. It will be important to reveal the plot of the Magus more than the fact that the Magus, who always thought of it as the existence of the Ninro legend, was real. Speaking of the Magus, in all the old stories we've heard, he was the enemy of indestructible heaven."

"That's true, but...."

Haru-sensei is frightened when she is told that it is a problem for the whole world rather than a personal situation.

"Either way, you can't beat the mighty Magus and the head elder without Mina's help. We need allies for the rest."

"... if that's what young people decide."

Sei-chan, who knew that Yukino's intentions were firm, declined with reluctance.

Um, let's talk about the rest of what Mina and the others have been hiding so far.

Take a breath and Prime Minister Yukino starts talking.

"The remaining father's name is Yanglian Summer Edition. He's the general of this country."

Was Chancellor Yukino's father the general of this country?

That? But I'm sure it's a general in this country....

"General!? Maybe!?"

I'm sure Mina gave the same answer.

I turned a surprise to Prime Minister Yukino.

"Hmm, you may have heard of it, but in this country, kings and priests called emperors are in charge of divinity, and our samurai, our subordinates, are in charge of politics. In other words, my father is the virtual supreme power in this country."

Obtaining an answer from Chancellor Yukino, we understand the purpose of the Magus as we roll around. No, it's better to say you're convinced.

"The more it becomes, so...."

"If it involves the assault of a substantial leader in this country, that's enough reason to involve the Magus."

I don't know exactly what to do, but I'm sure it's not a busy thing.

"That's right. If a magician once disturbed the world of men, it is no wonder that the aim was to destroy this country by teaming up with the elders in charge."

I'm sure Yukino-chan feels the same way.

They stare at us with a serious look.

"Then I want you to help me. Yu raids the general and crushes the leader of the family. Then the country will regain calm, and so will the Magus."

Yeah, stabilize the country. That's the most robust measure.

"Yes! We can't just sit back and watch innocent people suffer! We must stop the Magus' ambitions!

Yes. I don't know what the Magus is up to, but there's only one thing we can do.

Stopping the devil's plan.

"Hmm! That's what you said! Let's get rid of the ambitions of the Magus and the Elder together!

That said, Yukino-chan looked at Mina.

……

Mina said with a sigh of anticipation that she had no choice.

"Yes, yes, I will help you."

With those words, Yukino-chan's face became full of delight.

"Oh! Again...."

But for the reward.

"... hmm"

However, Yukino-chan dropped his shoulders in a hurry.

"Well, that's the future course of action."

By listening to Mr. Yukino's situation and setting up a cooperative system, we will decide on our future policy.

Um, first of all, the rest of the generals should be named first.

"You need to perform a ritual somewhere, right?

Upon confirmation from Mina, Prime Minister Yukino pointed to a huge mountain rising far away.

"Exactly. The destination is the ancient ruins of the mountain Amatsukami, the spiritual peak of our country. To do this, we first head to the priest's village at the foot of the spiritual peak."

However, Mr. Yukino did not go directly to the ruins, but said that it was the village.

"A priest's village?

"You're not going directly to the ruins?

In Mina's doubt, Prime Minister Yukino shook his head.

"No, the rest of the general's assault rituals require the attendance of a priest. Anyway, even if we do the ritual, we need someone to prove it."

Yeah, if you ask me.

If no one can prove it, you might not believe I did the ritual.

"The more you become, the more priests you are."

Mina was satisfied when she heard Yukino-chan's words.

"What do you mean?

"The priests are the emperor's servants who govern the mythology of this country. They are distanced from our samurai."

"So it's part of the work of the priests to witness a ritual assault as a third party without involving any particular faction."

That's how it works.

Prime Minister Yukino then took a letter out of his pocket.

"And this is a letter prepared by my uncle to the lord of the clan who manages the land around the priests' village. This should help us with the rest of the general's assault ritual."

However, Mina waited for such Yukino-chan.

"Hey, can you trust the lord? Other clan lords have always teamed up with their elders. Then it's possible that the clan lord will be our enemy, right?

Mina's concerns are legitimate.

I don't know how much I can trust the lord.

"Of course. That's why I hired you."

Oh, you were thinking about that.

Mina shrugged her shoulders at the smile of Prime Minister Yukino.

Ahahah, you just gave me back my feelings.

"Nevertheless, the blood of the clan of priests is thick in the clan of clan lords holding the village of priests. Therefore, even if the generals and the leading elders come forward to fight, they will give priority to the emperor and the priests."

So don't worry, Prime Minister Yukino assured me.

Well, if the emperor is on the emperor's side, it doesn't matter what happens to us.

"Nevertheless, the question is before that."

I thought there was nothing to worry about now, and Harumi tells me that there is still another problem.

"Before?

Sure. I'm sure the head of the family knows what we're doing. Then you will be waiting with great force so that you can't enter the territory. Don't let that come from anywhere in the territory. "

The more you do, the more soldiers you will have at your destination as well as chasing us from over there.

"Then you fly back into the clan? I have Lex this time, so I can carry him at once."

"No, I don't think the same thing works. If they find out we're flying in the sky, they'll turn us into hares with arrows and magic. Besides, the enemy will sneak into the clan in secret."

"But you can't go straight to the ground."

Hmm.

I wonder what happened to everyone.

Can't the ground just enter the clan with great combat power?

then.....

"Oh, yeah."

I remember something. [M]

Um, it's a corner, so why don't you adopt Mina's plan?

"My idea?

"Yeah, it's a plan to fly. But not to cross the gate, but to the priests' village at once."

"But flying all the way over the sky is dangerous to find. If you get attacked, there won't be a single pile."

Yukino-san and the others looked anxious when they heard that they would adopt a plan to fly in the sky.

"It's okay. I'll get on the boat."

"A boat?

Yukino-chan and Haru-sen all leaned their heads.

◆

"The ship is this way."

I will guide everyone to the port. [M]

Yes, we are on our way to take advantage of that pirate ship, which has been modified to fly.

That one is almost broken, and even if it's attacked from the ground, it's enough to keep it until it reaches the priest's village.

If I had prepared a magic defense technique just in case, it would have been a little more complicated.

"Is it true that the ship... flies through the sky?

Yukino-chan murmured confused when she heard that she was flying to her destination on a ship that had been converted into a pirate ship.

"Well, I know it's hard to believe, but believe me, it's what Lex does."

Wow, if Mina says so.

Yukino-chan nodded reluctantly after receiving a heartbeat from her known opponent, Mina.

"Well, I was reluctant to use it at first, but if Yukinojo-san is the next general, there's no need to worry about breaking the ties, and if it's above the sky, it's easier to detect attacks than being attacked by shadows on the ground. It won't matter if we don't stop the attack that was fired at us."

"Are you going to get attacked in advance!?"

Mr. Yukino doesn't seem to be accustomed to fighting like that, but it's easier to intercept them than to hide in the past.

"In the meantime, if a flying ship becomes a landmark, not only the enemy, Mr. Gyro... it will be more likely to join my people, so I can aim to increase my strength."

"Isn't it more dangerous to be attacked by enemies than you'd expect to be more powerful!?"

We entered the harbor talking about that, but I felt uncomfortable with the sight.

……

"What's wrong?

Mr. Yukino didn't seem to have noticed, but Mina and Harumi watched my condition and watched my surroundings.

And just as the conjecture was right, the men who emitted a sword-eating atmosphere appeared to surround us.

"Heh heh, this is a dead end."

Well, it's a dead end in the back.

After all, it seems that the men are obviously after us.

"Looks like a chaser."

The men have already pulled out their weapons and are willing to kill without hiding them.

"Will you be quiet, boys?"

"You're a Ronin."

And Harumi looked at the men and murmured.

Ronin?

"In the words of the lord and others, those who have fallen in pursuit of their position of nobility."

"Former aristocracy? I don't feel like I have anything to do with it."

Certainly. Somewhat sluggish.

"Our aristocracy is also a samurai. It's true that there's a lot of people out there who don't have anything because there's something that gives priority to strength over manipulation."

"I'm sorry I don't have any items! Win now!

No, no, the men attacked me all at once.

When I parry the Ronin attack from the front, I immediately counterattack.

"Fu! Let me cum!

"Wow!"

But I'm confused when the Ronin attacks me lightly. [M]

"What? Not too strong?

Wasn't the chaser a good man!?

Speaking of which, Harumi also said that he was a fallen samurai, and he didn't really take martial arts seriously.

"Compared to Magus, ordinary people are such monsters. Stormburst!"

Mina attacks the Ronins individually with the magic of the wind attribute, so as not to damage the surrounding loads.

"" "" Gwaaa!? ""

After all, it seems that the other Ronin didn't really train, so Mina-san's magic falls apart.

But among them were just a few Ronins with different movements.

"Hee!

The Ronin evade Mina's magic, slash her with a sword, and then burst into magic from inside without taking much damage.

"Ugh!?"

Apparently, some of the amateur Ronin were lurking behind hidden strengths.

Kh!

Mina immediately uses Physical Reinforcement Magic to evade Ronin attacks and casts the magic of restraint while falling back.

Wow!

Meanwhile, Yukinojo, who had bumped into a skilled Ronin, was kicked by the enemy and struck by the load behind him.

"Young!?"

"Yukinojo!?"

"I got it!

A Ronin jumps at Chancellor Yukino for a chance.

"I won't let you!

However, when I immediately entered between Yukinojo-san and the Ronin, I took the attack and intercepted it.

"Ha!? How long? Gwah!

Is that it?

Moreover, I feel uncomfortable with the lightness of the Ronin's attack.

Strange, when I saw you blow up Yukino-chan, I thought a heavier attack was coming.

"No, this is not the time. Let's cum!"

When I slay the Ronin's sword, I slam the handle of the sword into the dovetail and disable it.

We need to keep some of them as witnesses to the crime.

"Gubooa!?"

Looking around, other skilled people were also suppressed by Mina and Hayashi.

"Here, if I could beat this, I could have been an officer... Gacli"

Saying that, the last one falls.

"Apparently, he was being used as a bait."

"Stupid. If you go to the general's house, there's no point in making an officer."

Harumi shouted surprisingly to the Ronin who had attacked him without thinking about it.

"But what was it, these guys? Something strangely strong was mixed up."

"If you ask me, yes. Even if they didn't question the quality, they were moving unusually differently."

"If only I had such a strong crew, I should have used it earlier."

Mina and Harumi also seem to be concerned about the tight strength of the Ronin.

And I noticed the reason. [M]

Looks like this is the cause.

I collect the Ronin's weapons and strange tools. [M]

"Is that... a magic item!?"

That's Mina-san, I think you soon realized who this is.

"Yes, it seems that all the Ronins who thought they were good were equipped with magic items."

It's not like they were mixed up, they were using magic items to build up their strength.

"Ha-ha. I can't believe a Ronin is rich enough to have magic items."

"Stupid! A Ronin has magic tools!? Impossible!?"

In contrast to Mina, who was interested, Harumi shouted surprisingly that it was impossible.

"What? Really? But if it was a family heirloom inherited by our ancestors, wouldn't it be strange to have it? You're a former aristocrat, though, aren't you?

"No, not all of the Ronin are former aristocrats. Some ministers served samurai. Above all, the battlefield is an opportunity for our samurai to show their strength. Had he had such a magical instrument, he would have shown his head in the old days. If it's something I've inherited from generation to generation, it'll be better."

"Well, that's what the common sense in this country is."

Apparently, in this country, our strength affects our emergence more than the continent we live in.

Over there, not only martial arts, but also the work of using wisdom like a civilian is important.

"Well, it's not a very good magic item. It doesn't look like a family heirloom because it's not of good quality."

At best mass-produced... yeah, this is the worst.

"Apparently there was too much difference in quality, and even products with the same functionality had a big difference in performance."

Perhaps everyone is equipped with this magic item.

But it seemed hard to realize that they were strengthening with magic items because there were so many objects that they could only exert too little magic.

Hmm, I wonder if this was meant to be?

"Perhaps only a Ronin who used a relatively good product among them seemed to be smart."

"So there was a mix of broken magic items?

"Mmm, so the magic equipment was originally excavated from the ruins. Is it possible that they will grab the broken item?"

"No, it's a magic item, but it doesn't look like a regular magic item."

"Isn't that normal? What's that supposed to mean?

"Look inside. This is not a magic ceremony for ordinary magic items."

"... even if they say no... is that so?

"I have no idea."

They're not magic item experts, so there's nothing you can do about it.

"It is not uncommon for magic formulas used for magic items to have their own standards or security so that the structure is not analyzed by the workshop."

"That's right...."

"But this magic ceremony is fundamentally different."

Yes, it is a pre-security issue such as standards.

"Um, may I conclude?

"This is not a human trick."

"Isn't that a human trick?

"Yeah, and we've seen magic ceremonies like this before."

"It's not a human trick. Is that... no way!?"

In my words, Mina remembers what she saw on that island, no, on that creature.

"Yes, this is a magical ceremony used by the Magus."

Yes, it was a structure commonly found in magic items used by Magus.

"They gave me magic items from the Magus!?"

"Yes, maybe, but I think they let the Ronins have it to dispose of the bad magic items. Maybe he cheated on this magic item as part of his reward."

Because there were a lot of scams in the past that made people think bad things were real and take jobs.

Most of those scams aren't all bad stuff, they mix some with real stuff.

Perhaps only the good Ronin were given good magic items, and the crooks caught the bad stuff.

"Hmm, a bad item for a magic item... but even if it's a magic item, can I call it a scam...?

"Well, I guess Magus was able to deceive humans and use them. It's no use thinking about them and Lex."

"Is that what you're saying?

"That's what it is."

Mina is comforted by Harumi's differing thoughts with the Magus, but why did she put my name in there?

Anyway, we've already defeated our pursuers. Shall we go to the ship?

Yeah, yeah.

Hmm.

……

"Is that it, Yukinojo?

Then we noticed that Yukino-chan had not joined the conversation earlier, and saw Yukino-chan.

What was there was Yukino-chan lying on the ground in a tight state.

"... Gofu"

"YukinoI!!"

"Yoo-hoo!

"Yukinojo, come on!

It was then that we finally realized that Yukinoji had lost consciousness.
