Re:Zero Kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu (WN)

Looking at the shepherd boy, Abel looks at Subaru with relentless questions.

His mouth spun a name, because it was too unexpected.

"Is Tanza that girl...?"

In the confused Subaru's head, a deer girl with a dirty figure appeared.

It was impressive that Yoruna's valet, a child who appeared in yesterday's heavenly palace and in today's inn, was very calm even though she was still a child.

Abel categorically asserted that she was the conciliator who set this up.

"No, I don't understand!" Why, that girl is... wreaking havoc with us! "

Ugh!

As soon as she raised her voice to hear Abel's thoughts, Subaru jumped at the impact and turned over. Looking at it, it was Louis with a smile on his face who was riding against the leaning Subaru.

Louis slammed down ten enemies in a flurry of brawl. Inspired by her innocence, Subaru took a breath.

─ ─ Louis' rampaging power was undoubtedly the same thing he saw in the sand tower.

It wasn't the power that Louis derived from, it was the power he had taken from someone else who had worked hard to build it. In other words, she used the word "bulimia".

"...... Get out of my way."

Ahh?

"Get out of my way!"

Pressing the girl's shoulder over her chest, Subaru pushes her body up. And with that momentum, Louis grabbed her ass, and her stomach - reddish-dyed, white fabric - jumped into her eyes.

When I saw it, I remembered that she was injured.

"What's the scratch!? I have to fix it...!"

Ahh! Ahhhh!

He rushes around the girl's clothes and tries to find out where she was injured. But Louis frenzied like a tickle, pushing Svalbard's face and neck to resist.

Regardless of that resistance, somehow I wrapped up my clothes and checked the wound, and there was a mark of bleeding there, but I didn't see anything that looked like a scar.

"It's healing...?"

Certainly, there are no traces of bleeding, but there are no wounds.

Tasting the evidence of being pinched by a fox, Louis poked the dumb Subaru's chest violently with both hands. However, the answer to what Louis would have done if he had pushed it in earnest was proven by the number of people who had fallen on the street.

No matter what--

"Answer me. Where's Tanza?"

Abel's interrogation continued as Subaru checked that Louis was safe.

The fearful oppression interview seems to threaten not only Abel's eyesight, but also the medium blade standing behind him. Even if the medium doesn't mean it, just standing behind Abel will do the trick.

In fact, the boy looked alternately at Abel and Medium and snorted their thin throats.

"Ah....."

"This is the third time." Answer. Yay, I think there's a fourth time. "

It was a cruel voice with such a cold air that it was cold from the bottom of my heart. When he heard that, the boy made his mouth twitch several times, and then slightly recovered the flame of his eyes.

"And you shouldn't know!" If Tanza's whereabouts are, you guys are...! "

――――

"You guys took Tanza... that's why! This is how we do it!"

The boy's arm stretched out to Abel in front of him as he bite.

Recklessly, his fingertips grab Abel's throat and try to crush it. But before it arrived, a small palm held the boy's forehead ─ ─

Ahh!

As it was, it hit the boy's head on the ground from the back of his head and knocked him unconscious.

The pathetic, whitened boy let out a moan and let go of his consciousness.

"R, Louis..."

In the blink of an eye, Louis disappeared and appeared somewhere else.

The short-range warp used by [Rough Eating], which she repeatedly showed in the sand tower, gave Subaru a feeling of shock.

The fact that she still had that power meant that she was still Louis Arneb.

A girl from the white world who was trying to rip Subaru's heart out and take away her soul completely.

She mistook [Return to Death] for a blessing and called Subaru a monster.

"We need to find Alvaro as soon as possible."

The last exchange that endangered her life, and on the contrary, she was never saved. Abel stood up slowly and muttered.

― ― Find Alvaro.

Of course, Subaru agrees with the policy itself.

However, I don't know why I have to say it again now. It was just after the boy told me something about Tanza that didn't make sense.

Alchin, can you stand up?

"... ah, ahh"

Medium with her weapon in her sheath reaches out to Al.

Al, whose face was covered with a mask, answered it with a sinking voice so much that he could imagine that his face was pale without knowing.

Leaving aside his worries about Al, Subaru finally stood up, paying off the dirt on his ass. Then he went under Abel.

What do you mean by that?

“What is that question about?”

"That's right!... Tanza's the mastermind, and I'm trying to find Albert, and so on and so forth!" You know what I mean! "

Hmmm.

Snorting his nose, Abel touched the demon's cheek like a fool.

With impatience and irritation, the workmanship was interrupted by Subaru's frustration. That's why Subaru flies angrily, forcing the demon to peel from Abel's face.

Then Abel looked down at Subaru unhappily with a face that had been revealed for a long time.

"What are you going to do?"

"What are you trying to say to me!" If you don't understand everything by yourself, explain it to me! We're in this together! "

"-Are you a companion?"

"Ugh..."

Strangled from the front with a bare face, Subaru's momentum suddenly squeezed.

Even though he said "fellowship" to his face, the expression might have offended Abel. In the first place, Subaru's description of Abel as a "companion" was disgusting.

That's how he reflects, as he unexpectedly starts to speak. But I can't say it because I felt like I would apologize if I said that reflection here.

"That's right, Abelchin." We're all in this together, so you have to tell me. "

Instead of Subaru, it was the medium that stood Al up.

She puts her hand on her waist and uses her small body to protest against Abel. When Abel heard this straightforward word, he narrowed his black eyes.

"The assassins to the inn and all of these things are horny."

"Yukaku... you mean the people with the horns." Is that it? "

"--The horny race has a history of persecution. When horns resemble beasts, they are abominable."

"Eh......"

And when Abel had spoken palely, Subaru's eyes were rounded.

Horned, that's why they persecuted me. --That kind of prejudice was very familiar to Subaru, which was why it was unforgivable.

Emilia, who had a past that was persecuted for the same reason, has been made unpleasant by many people because of the characteristics of her appearance and her resemblance to a bad witch.

And the horny race and the surrounding sub-people have a similar past.

"But why did those people kill us?" I know you were scared because of the horns, but I don't know. "

"Even though you've become a toddler, you have to work your head a little bit." For those with a history of being persecuted for having horns, this city... the way to chaos frame is salvation. ”

"Relief... do you mean good?"

"-Jolna Michigre will never let go of what she put in her pocket. I've rebelled against one of the dead deer's daughters before."

The emperor's insurrection with his arms joined together tells the story.

Yoruna, who is said to have revolted many times in the past, why she stripped the Emperor of her service of her fangs - it was for the benefit of only one person.

When Svalbard told me that story,

"Well then, you're a good guy...!"

"By the way, is it that easy to enclose?" ― ― Yoruna Michigre shoulders herself as a lover. And a woman unforgivable for what's outside that circle. "

Ah ~, but I think it's natural to be nice to people you like!

"I think so too."

As Louis agrees with Medium and Subaru, he says, "Ahhhhhh!” He raised his hand. He glanced at them with cold eyes, and Abel exhaled smallly.

“What's important is the fact that the horny races who have been persecuted in the past have gained peace of mind in this city. And to maintain that tranquility, the presence of Yoruna Michigle is indispensable.

What do you mean?

He leans his head and waits for Abel's words to continue.

However, for a moment, Abel looked toward Subaru, who was tilting his neck, and hoarded his words. Subaru didn't know what that meant, but Abel continued after several blinks.

"In other words, for the Horned Races, our existence that prevents Yoruna Michigle from joining the full-scale rebellion against the Imperial City is an unmissable enemy that shakes the ground that has been tampered with."

"Ah......"

That said, Subaru finally understood the true meaning of the words and deeds of the shepherd boy.

The boy who grabbed Subaru's arm and threw it out into the street was also suffering - no, not only the boy, but all the people who attacked him had a bitter face.

It was a sign of guilt about driving the Subaru and anxiety about losing their place. So even when I threw Subaru, the boy apologized.

"These people were also working hard..."

"Sympathy, or compassion?" Either way, there's plenty of room. Remember that these things have been hostile to us. Circumstances are in everything that lives and lives. "

"Abel Chin!" No way! I don't know yet, but did you ask these people about Tanza-chan? Also, I've been looking for Grandpa! "

"... it's true that these guys don't know Tanza's whereabouts from what they said earlier." Somehow, I suspect we've hidden their whereabouts. Why is that? "

"Why, that's... why?"

Looking down at the unconscious boy, Subaru bothered Abel's question.

Before Louie fainted, the boy ate at Abel, asking him where Tanza was. I didn't think that swordscreen was a lie.

That's why the boys thought Subaru had done something to Tanza.

Is that why you attacked us?

“That makes sense. But as a matter of fact, we haven't done any harm to Tanza. Then where did she go? In addition, where did hundreds of horny races emerge from?"

I wonder where you've been waiting outside.

"Who ordered you to do this?"

Asked without putting his hair in, Subaru was stuck in words.

Rotate your head and assemble a building that answers Abel's questions to the pillars. But before it can be properly assembled,

"--You said in advance that that girl was saying it."

And so, Al sidetracked the response from behind.

Al, who had been speechless before, turned to his voice and called out "Al..." to him in an atmosphere that still seemed to be in tune.

"I'm sorry, brother, I was worried."... well, the situation hasn't gotten any better. "

"You're not going back." That's probably because of Albert's skill. "

"... I don't disagree with that either." I'll tell you the story, but I'd better finish what I told you. I'm talking about Miss Tanza. "

She waved her tiny hand and replied with a voice that Al consciously pushed to kill her emotions.

Al looks distracted, but he's right and he's in the middle of a conversation. -This means that Tanza was gathering people from outside in advance.

"Well, then, was Tanza trying to get us to attack by gathering some of her horny friends around the inn?" But if that's the case.... "

Where's Tanza?

The medium question that followed Subaru's words was the answer that could not be found in Subaru.

Tanza appeared at the inn to give instructions from Yoruna and was supposed to disperse. Even though she was convinced of the flow, the rest of the group reacted strangely.

At least the shepherd boys believed that Subaru had done something to Tanza.

"In other words, the lady's companions have not seen the lady safe."... no, I guess I didn't see you come out of the inn in the first place. "

"That makes sense, too. Therefore, until we left the inn, we did not try to use hard means in view of the possibility that Tanza was talking inside."

"But then, where is Tanza?"

The confusion hit me in the head, and a medium screamed as if I was turning my eyes.

However, if you were so polite and orderly, Subaru would know what Abel was thinking. Maybe this is what Abel thinks.

That 's--

"If that girl... Tanza isn't out of the inn, she's hiding somewhere." --Albert is working with you!? "

△▼△▼△▼△

--The horny race that attacked Subaru and the others to recapture Tanza.

However, I can only believe that they waited outside the inn from the beginning and discussed what would have happened if anything had happened to Tanza beforehand.

And in that inn, there is a possibility of matching Tanza...

Albert Dunklken, he's the only one.

"... there's a possibility that the employees of the inn were working together to hide it?"

"Of course, I can't blind myself to that possibility." But I'm sure of it. "

Sure?

Abel nodded deeply at Al's questioning voice.

Albert and Tanza, the reason he believes that they are in a hand-to-hand relationship.

"I've deliberately tried to escape and hide my childhood play. It's a vicious hobby that the old man seems to like."

"If you can find it, you can try to find it ~?"

"Yes, it is."

Subaru's face was unexpectedly unpleasant to Abel, who had pulled his chin and affirmed it.

Abel's assumptions based on Albert's poor character are contradictory. Yes, Subaru was intuitively convinced of the reason for his disgusting face.

It was a metaphor for concealing Tanza by proposing "Hide and Seek."

But if that's why they attacked us, it's against the rules!

"Are you saying you won't harm each other?" If he is a slave, he will be able to say 'I have not given up my hand'. If Tanza is holding hands, that's all. "

"Gu... ah, that's not a good idea...!"

"Therefore, priority is given to locating Albert." Then we can crack Tanza's whereabouts at the same time. However, if the prospectus is broken, the reason for hide-and-seek may disappear. "

Albert and Tanza, we know they might be together. But I'm not sure that's how it ends with "Hide and Seek."

Subaru frowned and made a frown. Abel looked back from Subaru's hand and took the side of the demon violently.

In front of Subaru, who was surprised, Abel reconstructed his face.

“Albert's goal is to see if we are worthy of negotiation. For him, the real order is this way, rather than nursery play. Therefore, if you are sincere, you do not need to take troublesome steps."

"Ahh, I get it, I feel like..."

"--Are you seriously getting embarrassed about your wisdom?"

As she barely followed the explanation, Abel murmured as she sighed.

I cannot refute Abel's point. Subaru was also aware that he was clearly out of his mind. I just don't know how much it is.

I don't think it's a good idea, I don't know what to say, or I think I'm getting insane.

"Even if you're the smart one..."

"In your case, the problem is that your understanding and creativity have dropped." The details of Albert's technique are unclear, but I hear that the body reflects the rise and fall of Odo itself. "

"Oh, it's Odo's fault...?"

"There is a connection between the Odo and the flesh, their growth and decline. Speaking of which, I can assume that Albert interfered with your... no, your odds."

Abel looked at Subaru, Al, and Medium, all with their bodies shrinking.

Svalbard's words didn't ring a bell. Even when the gate to use magic was broken, I didn't really know about Mana or Odo, who weren't aware of its existence.

However, it was true for Subaru.

"--That's because that grandfather messed with my body."

Yes, I was so hated by Al's murmuring voice.

And when he saw, he touched his forehead, which was wrapped in a veil, and shook his fingers. The unrestrained frustration that he often exhibits is evidence that he is also under mental influence.

When I was an adult, the mental leeway I had was being lost when I became a child.

"I'll definitely put that shit behind me...!"

"To do that, we'll need to find out where the 'Naraka with a good view' is."

"Yeah... that said, I was on my way to the store."

Svalbard cut off his words as he looked sideways at Al, who was boiling with anger.

I had a stall on the street, but that's what I was trying to do when I left Tarrita to do something else. However, that sincerity had not been explained.

Why did Abel rush to the tavern and why?

"The basis of the search is number. Ideally, a land survey is desirable. However, all the inhabitants of this city could be on Tanza's side. Therefore, it would be appropriate to use the extra person."

"So, you're aiming for a tavern where people are likely to gather." That sounds like a brother's idea. "

"Eh, that's not true..."

Saying no, Svalbard remembers searching for a bouncer in Guaral.

It was when Todd was aiming for a man who was about to tremble just by remembering. After thinking a lot to help, I went to the tavern when I planned to hire a strong escort.

Unfortunately, the drunken swordsman I hired at that time was soon killed.

"But don't you need some money to help me?" Such money is nowhere to be found. "

"That concern is useless. I have a reward for that."

That said, Abel shook the bag he was in charge of.

It was brought out from the inn as necessary, and I was wondering what the contents were.

And when Svalbard's gaze came upon him, Abel opened not the mouth of the bag.

"When I left Guaral, I had Zikl open the city hall. It's the most efficient way to get help." There is no useless hand. "

"... you're so shy."

"However, walking with a lot of money in the face of a demon is noticeable and dangerous... oh, I see"

Along the way, Abel slapped the demon face with his finger, and Subaru noticed that she was worried.

That demon has the effect of "cognition inhibition", so the idea of "being prominent" is wrong in the first place. My fellow Subaru is not effective, so I'm confused about the difference between his situation and the reactions around him.

"Well, then, is what you do the same?" You mean we can all go to the tavern and find someone who can help us find that grandpa? "

"..." I initially thought. However, things have changed somewhat. "

How did things change?

"If Alvaro and Tanza worked together from the beginning, let's get to the method of increasing manpower early." Albert had no influence in the Demon City if he was single, but if Tanza joined him, it was a different story. She's a servant of Yoruna Michigle. "

Yoruna in the greatest position in the Chaos frame, that Yoruna's squire, is like a secretary. In other words, Tanza is as great as Joruna in this city.

Or, you can behave in a great way.

If you really want to hold my head, I'll put people around the tavern as well.

"You don't have to be in a visible trap. However, there seems to be a way to break through."

Abel's gaze turned sideways in a conversation that forced him to change policy. Following his gaze, Subaru's cheeks tightened.

Huh?

Because Louis was standing there leaning his neck at the gaze of the demon.

After returning the attacking opponent, Louis, who had relentlessly knocked the sheep boy unconscious at the end, was combing her blonde hair with his fingers, beside the medium she missed.

On the back of its overwhelming fighting power, there was no change in the attitude of innocence itself.

On the contrary, it pierces Subaru's spine with something cold.

"Ah, that Louie just now was amazing!" I'm surprised you're hiding something like that ~

"Aaaahhhhh"

"Ehehe, thank you for your help."

With that Subaru's mood in the background, Medium stroked Louis' head defenselessly. Louis accepted the palm, but Subaru's heart was beating.

That's why I said, "Wait!" I just grabbed the medium wrist.

I, Subaru Chin?

"Um, Mr. Medium, you shouldn't get close to this guy..."

"- Why? Because you helped me." It's about Subaru Chin. "

"That's probably true... but..."

Subaru couldn't repay the medium question without sincerity.

In fact, she is honest and correct in her view. Louis saved Subaru. Don't hesitate to scratch yourself and use your little body to protect it.

Svalbard was desperate to say, "Don't die."

”Cut it out, don't you mind telling me what's going on?”

Seeing Subaru with bad teeth, Al spoke out in a low voice.

Svalbard took a breath and looked down at the dazed look through the mask. ― ― A few days ago, I was reminded that during my journey to Chaos Frame, I had put Louis's situation under control.

Even then, Svalbard couldn't decide what to do with Louis and reserved his answer.

But--

"It's no longer a situation where you can laugh and overlook it." It's not just me, it's everyone's problem. "

――――

"What do you have in mind for her?"

The pursuit gaze is focused, and Subaru reflexively shelters Louis behind him.

I didn't try to protect Louis, but I didn't know how Louis would react to his gaze - no, Subaru didn't know if it was true.

If there is just one thing I can say, it is that I can't fool you anymore.

And with Subaru's young, awkward head, he can't even make up a lie like that.

That's why--

"This is Louis... a big sin bishop of [bulimia]"

Yes, I could only reveal the truth clearly.

△▼△▼△▼△

― ― The identity of Louis Arneb.

It was a secret that Subaru had been hiding from everyone he met, not to mention Lem, who had lost his memory since he was sent by the Volakian Empire.

The troubles caused by Louis' identification as a major sin bishop were expected to be various, regardless of whether it was inside or outside Subaru. - No, it was expected to exceed expectations.

So, until this moment today, Subaru has hidden that fact.

"--Major Sins, Bishop"

Svalbard's revealed facts, and the word is rebuffed in a loud voice.

If Al or Abel were to marvel at the fact, it's only natural. It's only natural to be vigilant, to check the facts, and to say out loud how ridiculous it is.

However, Al and Abel weren't the first to shake their voices.

"Louis, the Bishop of Major Sins..."

Huh?

Yes, it was the only medium that leaked a stunned voice.

The blue eyes were rounded, and medium looked at Louis firmly. With that medium glance, Louis was leaning his neck in a stupid voice that seemed unexpected.

And that's what Subaru feared the most.

Medium - No, I was optimistic that O'Connell's brothers and sisters would accept it and laugh at it for nothing.

However, it is noticed that it was only a dream idealism rather than optimism.

――――

That is the unmistakable and definite "fear" that passed through the eyes of the medium.

Brother, that's not funny. I'm just kidding.

"Jeez, I'm not kidding..."

"If you're not kidding, it's even more ridiculous!"

Shocked by the medium response, Subaru was unable to react appropriately to Al's subsequent remarks.

I shouted out loud and pulled out Al's blue dragon sword violently. Of course, it's not something that a child can hold with one thin arm, so the sword that is pulled will bury the tip in the ground.

Still, you can't use it if you put on weight and swing it around. With such a keen intention, Al's gaze turned to Subaru and Louis behind him.

"I can't walk with Monsignor Daisy, you're a sane man." I don't think you forgot what happened at Pristella. "

"W-Well, that's..."

"Me and Priscilla... there was no harm to the princess." But it just so happens. I saw my brother's body and the body of someone I knew. That's why it's him. "

I leaned against the blue dragon sword stuck to the ground and couldn't speak back to Al, who was angry.

All in all, Al was right. It is Subaru who is doing the wrong thing in everyone's eyes. We shouldn't have taken Louis and we shouldn't have left him alone.

I should have revealed my identity, tied it up, taken my freedom, and caught it.

But Subaru didn't do it. Forget it.

"Ah, Abel too...?"

Maybe it's the same opinion, but it turns to Abel, who is silent.

Medium was frightened, and now that Al had revealed his anger, Abel's attitude was the last bastion - and even Subaru could not tell who it was for.

However, if everyone at the scene chooses to be hostile to Louis,

――――

I'm sure that Subaru will be able to move with this hesitation.

"In other countries, I don't know how he treats them."

In front of the breathtaking Subaru, a demonic man wearing a bag receives our gaze head on.

Black Eyes and Black Eyes were staggered, and Subaru's chest was scratched with a cold glance. Your brain is numb from the edge, like rejecting the words you were supposed to wait for and the contents that follow.

The voice slowly penetrated into such a numb brain.

That 's--

"In this empire, [Witch] is executed for whatever reason."

A resolute proclamation from the beings who stand at the apex of this empire, claiming to have been pursued by the throne.

It was a clear sentence of execution that was never compatible.

As soon as she heard it, Subaru closed her eyes strongly ─ ─

"--- Louie!!"

Subaru Chin!?

As soon as I screamed my name emotionally, my little hands spun around Subaru's waist.

Shortly after, a screaming, medium voice resounded, and Subaru's legs leaped off the ground and into the sky - No, Louis, who was attached to his waist, jumped up from Subaru.

I have no idea why I called Louis by his name, what he meant by it, or why Subaru's tears floated as he gnawed his back teeth.

I was just thinking.

Ugh...

And now you mustn't abandon the girl who shrugs her throat by attaching it to her waist.

You saved my life, and I'm not saving yours. It's not that I was so emotional that I thought I had to protect it. I was just thinking.

Not only the limbs, but also the inside of the head shrinks, and if you give an answer to a girl who doesn't know what she's thinking, you'll regret it.

It's Subaru's problem, which has nothing to do with Lem or the many people he's met.

Natsuki Subaru has to face it with all his might, it's a problem.

"Brother! Come back! Fuck you...!"

Al screamed upward, but Louis' legs jumped as he kicked the wall.

As Louis hugged the back of Subaru, he kicked the wall of the building facing the street and went up to the rooftop. He easily moved to the next street and to the next street.

With scaffolding all over the city and a free-flowing chaos frame, Louis' unstoppable openness was truly one-of-a-kind.

"Haha!"

Pyongyang was lowered after several jumps, and Subaru repeatedly took a deep breath with his hands and knees on the floor. Many times I defied gravity, but it was also painful to have Louis' torso clenched like a vise.

Louis looked into Subaru's face from the side, and he hated being pinned.

But it's not like you just hate that face.

"Shit, Abel and the others..."

It was the result of my own actions. It was too white to say that it was lost.

But if I stay there, I don't know what Abel ordered. Even with Al's reaction, he wouldn't have missed Louis.

I couldn't say that I could expect much from the power to soothe the medium scene.

That's why I blamed it on my dislike of being shed and handed over to Louis.

Huh?

She wiped her mouth with her sleeve, and Louis' blue eyes were watching the weather on Subaru's face.

The hostility, fear, and attitude that I'm not attentive to at all seem to make Subaru feel stupid.

"Are you stupid, I'm..." No, I'm stupid. "

In fact, it's very stupid.

Anyway, it's ridiculous for Abel to leave his Medium and Al behind and run away with Louis.

I don't know what I'm thinking or what I'm doing.

"Still, if I make up my mind now, I'll regret it." It's not for the child to decide this. "

I think it's important that people live and die, and that the future of the empire be involved.

It is strange that a child as young as ten years old should decide such a big problem while being exposed to the cold eyes of an adult. - Yes, you're wrong.

"I'm sure that the original me will be able to make a proper decision." That's why.... "

As soon as possible, we must cancel this "infantilization" and return from the juvenile Natski Subaru to the juvenile Natski Subaru.

That way, we should be worried about Louis' opponent, and we should be able to return a proper answer to our friends' judgment and reach a satisfactory conclusion.

For that reason,

"--Find Mr. Albert." Don't rely on Abel and the others, do your best. "

Ahhh!

Responding to Subaru, who raised his face, Louis raised his hands with a motivated face.

Looking down at the scenery of the Demon Capital from the tall scaffolding, two small children breathed in the sidelines. The residents of Chaos Frame and the emperor who was pursued by the throne turned their enemies and found the head of Shinobi.

--Without trying to do so, the Subaru were the demons of [Hide and Seek], and even the demons of [Chase Kakko] were chasing them.
