Ore wa Mada, Honki o Dashite Inai

123. Mysterious Raiders (Part I)

Noon on the day of the coming.

I went all the way to the city.

Pindos are busy this day too, sounds good.

Walking around the city.

"Oh, you're a lord."

"Lord, stop by my shop."

"Hello lord"

One voice after another.

Sometimes passers-by can speak up, but the majority can speak up to store people.

Every time I go out of town, I drop my money in that shop over there.

I suppose they think you're a customer.

Good thing.

A prodigal lord to squander.

I'm not supposed to roll like I'm doing this, so I'll do it again today.

Well, it sounds like something tasty, or is there something I can buy my sister or something for a souvenir?

"Trembling atmosphere. Turn the most vivid thoughts inherent in me into anger and food, mana and spray them - Raising Mist"

- Murder!?

Immediately after I felt it, the magic flew in.

This feeling, super hot steam?

The magic of a type of flame that melts away, not burns the target.

Avoid it, or not?

As soon as the two options came up in my brain, all sorts of things had run around like a running lantern.

If you avoid it - my lord, wow!

If you didn't avoid it - my lord, wow!

Whatever I did, I felt like the result was getting there.

No, actually, I've been.

No, not if you're thinking about that right now.

This is the whole city.

Most people around us haven't noticed this magic yet.

Avoid it or not.

We should take a way to minimize the damage.

The way to minimize the damage is...

- And that's 0.01 seconds.

I put up a magic barrier.

A 45 degree diagonal magic barrier in the direction where magic flies.

The magic that struck it was angled and in a straight line over the sky.

"Hey, what?

"What happened?"

"What kind of idiot let go of fireworks all over the city!

With the sound and shock waves when it prevented magic, some humans noticed the matter, and the voice of surprise and anger rose from over there.

I turned away from the magic that flew.

One girl stood before nature and the road were clear.

An adult and a girl as young as a child.

He's wearing glasses, his hair flushes behind him in an all-back mood, and he's wearing a hair band.

If you look at me, is this really the girl? I may think so, but she's staring at me with a tremendous sense of killing.

Definitely.

"You... who are you?

It's Sophia Despina.

"Sofia Despina"

Explore memories while repeating that name.

Yeah, that's the first name I've ever heard.

I mean, first time.

To the first person I met, and to a girl like this, I can turn my eyes and kill like I see my parents' enemies.

The situation was too complicated and confusing to my mind.

I don't know, so I decided to come directly to him.

"What does that Sophia look like to me?"

"That Sophia? Like what? That's..."

It was a sword screen where I could hear the sound of a freak......

Sophia glanced at me with a tremendous eye, letting her blues on her temples.

It's no longer a killer's eye.

"You forgot about me?

"What!?

Forgot what?

Could it be that we've met before?

No, even if it never happened, is that just a pattern you know your name from?

I saw Sophia again.

Her face and its name.

Girls these days imagine younger feelings because they change quickly, and explore their brains in both Sofia and Despina because they have been named by their full names.

Deeper than just now, I tried to remember.

But - I still can't remember anything, I don't know.

"Bad, I still can't remember. Could it be some clerk..."

……

Killer swelled.

Double the kill - no, triple the kill, enough to stick a tingle in my skin.

Shit, this is a bad guy.

He's a bee killer.

Sophia stood up on her shoulders and nodded, shuddering with a grudge.

"... even though"

"All the time! I've been waiting!!

When I looked up all the time, Sophia was in tears for some reason.

"Ranging Mist!!

I've put my hands together and done magic.

It has the same magic as earlier, but it has far stronger power than killing.

"Come on!"

I played it straight up, and then I ran away like a rabbit.

The second magic was shot in the eye loop, so the people around them fled in the same way.

"Wait!

Sophia came after me as I yelled, shooting magic.

Shit!

No sight!

The magic is causing damage over there.

Buildings are burning and trees are melting.

In order to avoid flying fires as much as possible, they fly out of the city in a straight line, keeping the same intervals as Sofia, while preventing magic.

As it turned out, he came to an unpopular place outside the city in such a way that he could take Sophia.

So - fast travel.

"Behold! Where have you been?

In an instant, he turns behind Sophia, then erases his signs, turns all the way around and returns to the city as he flees her sight.

After returning to the city, I came back to the mansion.

"Ugh..."

"Oh, welcome home, Hermes - what's wrong?

Her sister, who just ran into her on the doorstep, noticed something on the way to greeting her and approached her with her little neck tilted.

"Hmm? What's up?

"Your clothes are burning, aren't they?

"... true"

My sister pointed me out, and I realize it.

I was burning a little over my clothes.

Your body is intact, but you look more damaged than you need because of your clothes.

"And... I'm burning it. It smells like when you use light stones to cook bread with water vapor."

"I don't like that."

I smiled bitterly.

Raising mist.

As its name suggests, magic emits a frenzying scorching steam.

I was burned by it, so maybe I'm just saying that I have a metaphor for my sister.

Well, as for that anyway.

I decided to ask my sister.

"Sister, don't you know the name Sophia Despina?

"Is it Despina?

My sister seems to have caught on to her last name, downstairs.

"You know what?

"Yeah, Despina would know. I mean, how can you not care about hermes?

"Huh?"

I was confused.

He's the one I have to know about, too?

Seeing my confusion like that, my sister gave me an explanation.

"You know the first generation, led by 200 soldiers, was turning the war around, right?

"Oh."

I normally know that.

"At that time, the title given to all 200 people who followed me to the end was' Despina '. You mean' best squire 'in old words."

"... oh"

I nodded.

Despina, that's not the word, but I've heard that story several times.

"It's just that... it's a house that's going to be like that, you know?"

"Yes, most of the 200 people named their last name Despina as it was, and they took a long time to come together in one house,"

I see.

By the way, the Canoe family is still connected to the house.

I haven't used it since I took the lead, so it wasn't even in my head until my name.

I see. Doesn't that have anything to do with me at all?

Then I know she'll be angry, but isn't that too angry?

"What's wrong with that?

"Actually - dangerous!

As soon as I tried to explain, now I'm killing myself from the top.

Magic crushed the ceiling and flew in.

Hold your sister tight and jump away.

Magic - the raising mist landed and melted the floor of every carpet to create a large hole.

One girl jumped off the ceiling.

"Found it! Hermes Canoe!!"

It was Sophia.

She stands still and stares at me with anger.

It's the soot and dirt over my face that's clapping at the ghost's shape.

"Cover me!

Sophia holds her hand against me.

Chant and boost your magic.

Come on, the big one's coming!

I saw around, only my sister.

If it's just your sister - and I kick the ground and flesh thin on Sofia.

I was stuffed with distance in an instant and surprised Sophia, a ton of handknives on her neck like that, dropped.

Sophia, whose consciousness was pruned in one blow, hugs her where she collapses like a doll whose thread has been cut.

"Phew... you didn't. Sister, are you okay? - Sister."

"That child......"

"You know what?

"Yeah, you're the most magical kid in Despina. But my name is Sophia... ah"

It was the moment in my sister that I connected with my question earlier.

"Heh... is that right"

"What?

"I can't believe you beat Kirinko of Despina so lightly, Hermes."

"Oops......"

I'm disappointed.

I knew this was happening.

At least the salvation was that the only witness on this occasion was one sister.
