Chapter 7 67 "The Back of the Back Teeth"

The first time I heard Subaru's order, Grandpa Nul lavished his toothless mouth.

According to what I've heard, Grandpa Nul is a healer on the island, so to speak, doing the imitation of a doctor, but before he came here, he had never been treated by anyone else.

The island administrator, Grandpa Nul, was here before the Viceroy took Gustav's place, and happened to be able to play the role of healer in a more harsh and deadly time.

The first thing I did was put a dirty cloth on the armless swordman's wound.

When it came to treating them, they were often driven out, and eventually they didn't have to stand on the swordfighting field as sword owners, so they were ordered to work as healers in the healing room.

After that, after spending a long time as a healer, I crossed several Shura grounds worthy of my position.

Thanks to this, I was able to stitch up my wounds and prepare simple medicine, and even if I was safe until I died as a healer, he showed me his yellow teeth and laughed at me.

Svalbard felt sorry for distorting Grandpa's face so much.

But if you're going to do what Subaru wants to do on this island and what you have to do to get out of it, it was absolutely essential.

So, Svalbard asked Grandpa Nul, who was doing a fine job of saving people.

"--Can you prepare poison for people to die instantly by just chewing or licking?"

△▼△▼△▼△

I did something bad to Grandpa Nul.

But it was necessary. It's a big deal for Subaru if he faints in the middle of a battle and survives halfway through the war - it's only fair that there's a way to reorganize it.

And if only I had the means to do so, Subaru was totally indispensable.

Well, it would be helpful if you had a little longer legs.

What a stupid feeling, because you come across a situation where you don't have enough stakes in the battle.

Of course, that step will be solved forcefully by jumping two steps faster on the next opportunity. Repeat trials & errors to find your best hand and grab the future you want.

That's why--

"--That's it! Well done, you survived [Sparka]!!" With your full authority, let's accept you as members of the Sword Guard Lone Island! "

The echoing low rallying order celebrates the end of the fierce battle fought on the battlefield.

In the middle of the battleground, the corpse of a swordfighting beast with two swords, large and small, rolled on its back. He was slashed in the wings and long tail of both arms, and it was a painful figure.

But the movement of the wing and the attack with the sharp tail were really troublesome.

I want to tell you that I didn't hurt you unnecessarily because those two strategies were absolutely necessary in order to damage the main unit.

And-

"Mr. Gustav, are you serious?"

With a big breath on his shoulder, Subaru looks up at Gustav, who is standing at the main table.

The ruler of the island who saw the settlement of "Sparka" with four strong arms. I had the impression that it was a hard object that was not flexible, but the pronouncement of a settlement was not the same as every word and phrase.

This time and the time of the Subaru were hard to think of as coincidences, so it was thought that Gustav's call would be the same every time.

Anyway-

"Damn, I... I did it, I did it!" You survived! You're alive!! "

"We're alive...!" Ah, ahhhh! "

"Ghhh, hin..."

"... I can't believe it. It's the end of the world..."

"Maybe he's dead and behind Odo Laguna...?"

Around the corpse of the Gladiator Beast, there were five people who were dumbfounded and rejoiced in victory in their respective ways.

Orson, Hitz, Nadley, Quonson, Codley. They were all lizards, but there was not a single lizard of the same species, and understanding everyone's personality and working together was the winning equation.

Just like when we were Vaits, we didn't win even if we were missing one of them. --Of course, I couldn't have done it without Subaru.

"But I won...!"

While bitching, Svalbard pointed his finger at Gustav, who was sitting at the main table.

In his provocative Subaru posture, Gustav did not move his harsh face, but only narrowed his eyes.

Without saying anything at all, Gustav turned his back and stepped down from his seat to return to the island.

I left it to the guards who cleaned up the corpses and dealt with the surviving swordsman.

Schwartz!

"[]/(n, vs) (1

Someone called Subaru, who had seen Gustav leave. It was Heine who jumped out of the audience and ran towards us.

He grabbed Subaru's shoulder with his big fingers.

"What the hell were you thinking!?" No, why did you go to [Sparka] in the first place..... "

"Punishment, punishment."

Punishment, huh?

"Yes, I asked the other swordsman." Mr. Gustav, the guards... defying the island's management, first a warning, then a punishment. The vicious transgressor is the prey of the curse. "

After listening to several swordsmen, I did a good job of taking this back.

Everyone seemed to know that Gustav didn't want to reduce the number of swordsmen in vain as much as possible, and there was a common understanding of the rules laid down.

Punishment-that is, compulsory participation in a "sparka" implemented by an irrelevant "together".

"Sparka is a passing ceremony for new sword owners. Those who become sword owners once will not participate." I have my own [match], and I don't have a reason to do it. "

In addition, the "union" to be formed for "Sparka" is decided randomly by the members who entered the Isle of Solitude of the Swordsman at that time. In other words, you can't choose between good and bad compatibility.

What can I do, what I am good at, I am teamed up with an opponent who doesn't know much about my background, and I have to work with them to break through the Gladiator. It's such a rough move.

Dangerous deaths that are too likely to die without the benefit of doing so.

The swordsmen said with an aligned mouth that [Sparka] was the harshest death on the island.

Well, now it seems that Sessi is the reason why we're having the worst conversation with Sessi.

"... but I know why you mixed in with [Sparka]."

“But?

"In the first place! Why did you get punished!?" It would be strange to be able to mix it into Sparka right after we talked up there! It's like.... "

Then Heine parted the rough words, and Heine swam her gaze.

Svalbard shrugged his shoulders in an atmosphere of hesitation. I somehow understand what Heine wants to say.

It was like trying to help Orson and the others, wasn't it?

"---"

"I'm not wrong. If it wasn't for me, everyone would have been killed."

In fact, even with Subaru, the situation was terrible.

To unite with them, who weren't better suited to battle than Heine, I had to start by being one of them, a lizard.

It was quite useful to remember seeing the chaos frame.

We were all aiming for a chaos frame?

"That's..."

"You should do that properly." After all, we were able to reunite again. "

Svalbard said, laying his hands on Hye-in's hand on his shoulder.

Heine stared at Subaru's black eyes with her pupil wide open. Staring back at it, Subaru jerked his chin and showed the five of them.

The five of them, steeped in the joy of survival, are gradually regaining the leeway to look around, and one of them, Codry, realizes the presence of Heine.

And then--

"Hyayne! Hyayne! I'm alive... I'm alive!"

Kodori's voice puffed up with a happy face, and the other four looked at Heine as well. They were delighted with the presence of Heine and responded positively.

Seeing it, seeing Heine's face twitch and twitch,

"It's a chance I made for my life." Savor it, brother. "

With a bent back, Subaru sends Hyane off to his allies.

After hesitating several times, Heine moved forward in a gruesome footsteps-

And, Schwartz!

Yeah?

"... thank you very much."

Having said that, Heine walked up to the five people who were waiting.

There was no hostility or hostility towards Heine on the part of Orson. After all, Subaru already knew why the five of them were captured and taken to the Isle of Swords.

If we can discuss it properly, there is no reason for them to make a mistake.

"...... Master Schultz?"

"Whoa!"

As I watched the reunion of Heine and her companions, I was amazed by the voice from behind.

The jumping Subaru coughs into surprise,

"Ah, that's dangerous... I almost died...!" Don't surprise me! "

"That's our dialogue!" What suddenly... do you want to die!? "

"I don't want to die!?"

It was Tanza who scolded Subaru with an incredible swordscreen as she put her hand on her mouth and looked back.

In response to a violent protest by a young girl, Subaru shakes his head to the side as he is held back. But Tanza was not at all convinced by the excuse.

“My sudden participation in Sparka amazed me. But I don't think I need to die as a result of what I ate from Governor Gustav.”

"That's why it's a misunderstanding that you don't need life." I don't think anyone knows the value of life better than I do, do they? That's why you saved Hyane's people, too. "

"This is your life story."...... as a result, although I was glad that I was able to save my life, there were many dangerous situations in my eyes. This is just a miracle. ”

It's a miracle.

Slowing her voice down, Tanza looked realistically down on Subaru's recklessness.

She's right, it's true that there were a number of scenes where watching was annoying. I also know how Tanza feels when she wants to call it a miracle. --But that's not true.

I got the miracle from God, but I got it.

So this isn't a miracle.

A testament to Natsuki Subaru's shitty fate.

"...... but you're doing this recklessly to help Lord Hyain's people?" Or is it a buying phrase in exchange for selling words with Master Segmund? "

"No, I'm really pissed off at Sessie, but if I risk my life, I'd be too bad... I have a purpose to save Hye-in's people."

――――

Awesome suspicious eyes!

The explanation of Subaru's persuasive way of doing things is amazing.

Dropping his shoulders to Tanza's unreliable gaze at the current culprit, Subaru muttered forcelessly, "It's true..."

In that pathetic state, Tanza exhaled in small breaths.

So, what is Schultz's purpose?

"That's..."

In response to Tanza's question, Svalbard turned back again.

And Heine and the five of them that were speaking there. I could hear Hyane's voice rubbing up slightly.

That's why--

Let's wait a little longer and talk later.

"...... Master Schultz?"

Awesome suspicious eyes!

Dazed by such an unreliable self, Subaru slipped his finger into his mouth. Then, check the position of the wrap that is caught in the back teeth again.

――――

It was Subaru's last resort when he asked Grandpa Nul to make a concoction.

I can't believe I accidentally screwed up this circle I grabbed in a desperate challenge. You must be very careful not to die from a common mistake.

--As she thought about it, Subaru pushed the [medicine] wrap behind her back teeth.

△▼△▼△▼△

According to Orson's story, the Chaos Frame has been destroyed.

――――

Tanza lowered her round eyebrows and bowed down in response to a bitter report by Heine.

Even if you have the worst imagination, the shock when you are told that it is true will not be relieved. Even if you know you will fall, it will hurt if you fall.

After the end of Sparka, Orson survived and was welcomed as a swordsmith. He is now brought by guards to show him the facilities and common rooms on the island.

Even though he was a companion, Heine, who was different from them, could not be with him, and thus showed her face in the room of the Subaru who was normally the same.

And this is how Subaru told me the story I wanted to know.

"This is what you wanted, isn't it?" If I was on this island, I wouldn't have any information from outside. "

"Half. No, let's make it about 73." Seven is better for Heine and Orson. "

"Tell me, you creepy kid!"

I was quite serious, but Heine turned her face away from me with her arms around her.

I am very glad that Heine also put his feelings in order and thought about what Subaru was mixed with [Sparka] for.

None the less, Heine's expression seemed brighter because Orson and the others must have listened to what was at stake.

That 's--

"... those idiots got caught trying to get me back from a slave dealer." I can't save you anymore. "

"God and destiny are so unkind." That's why I saved your life.... are you going to leave us alone? "

"Hey, how's it going?" You're the only one who actually participated in Sparka. "

"Please help me as Heine sits down with her nose flushed. I'm asking you to do what you asked of Mr. Schwartz..."

"Go to sleep and say what you say!"

Grabbing your head by the stretching hand, you're shaking your head. Releasing her hand from Subaru's eyes, she noticed Tanza's face as she snorted her nose.

Listening to the chaos frame, Heine called out to her as she bowed down.

"Are you recessed about the chaos frame? what....."

"...... The Chaos Frame is my home. On the verge of collapse, in the city."

”Oh, I see... that's it, that's it”

Confused by the unexpected reply, Heine's eyes swim. Although his character is vulnerable to accidents, he immediately said, "But!” He shouted louder.

"It's true that the city has collapsed, but not all of the people who lived there." The people in the city are clumped together somewhere else... ahhh, I know. "

"As I said, is that it...?"

"No, I don't know how much I can trust you."

With that in mind, Hye-in hesitated at the words ahead of him. But Tanza and Subaru's interests are already on the horizon.

Feeling it, Heine sighed heavily,

"Hey, there seems to be a big revolt going on outside." The Chaos Frame are joining the rebellion. Well, it's said that the top of the Demon Capital was always rebellious, so the city disappeared as a result of that idiot..... "

"-Jolna-sama is not stupid."

"I'm sorry! I don't know why, but I'm sorry!"

Tanza's sharp gaze frightened Heine, who had spoken earlier, to turn her voice back.

It was Heine who was buying the opponent's anger with unwanted bluffing, but behind it, Subaru found some points that made him happy with the current story.

Of course, the premise is that we believe all of Orson's stories via Heine.

“No chaos frames, but Yoruna and the rest of the city are fine. If the rebellion is on the table, then Abel and the others are safe.”

The battle to reclaim the Imperial City could not proceed without Abel.

In other words, Abel is alive. I was hoping that Medium, Tarrita, and Al would be safe. ― ― Louis was safe next to Yoruna.

"... after all, I can't take the time"

When the situation outside is known in a fragmentary way, the desire to go out becomes more and more intense.

Of course, everyone in the Chaos Frame was worried about Yoruna and the Guaral people that Abel and the others would be joining up with - Lem.

I feel angry again when I find out that it's getting smaller.

"... I really wanted to show Rem that I could rely on him."

Personally, I think that my head is clearer and in better shape now, but I can't excuse Subaru for not being convincing in appearance. Tanza's constant attention to suspicion is probably not unrelated to her small body.

No matter what--

"Hmm, okay. Thank you, Heine, thank you."

"It's ours that saved me... ah, I just need to know."

To Svalbard, who thanked him, Hyaeus answered the question. Subaru laughed tinyly at the way he answered and thought about following Tanza.

”-Schwartz, the viceroy wants to see you.”

Outside the common room, the swordman in the black uniform was the guard on the island. Tanza's eyes widened as Heine's expression tightened in response to the call.

She looked at the guards,

"Governor Gustav killed Lord Schwartz?" why..... "

“I didn't hear that. There's no need to talk. obey me quietly, or else...."

"It's okay! I'll follow you quietly, even if it's not such a fight."... by the way, if you don't comply, you'll be punished? "

――――

"Joke, joke."

A magnificent watchman bent his lips at Subaru's light mouth.

I didn't like Subaru very much. Of course I did. This guard was in the scene where Subaru had spoken to Gustav before [Sparka].

Because he was the one who saw Subaru participate in Sparka, that is, he was subject to punishment. From his point of view, Svalbard will not know what to do with it.

Because I am a crazy child who wants to participate in Sparka.

"Well, let's go out for a bit." Tanza, be a good boy and wait for me. "

"...... Master Schultz, I hope you will be as happy as I've been"

"Hmm, I can't say back."

Svalbard laughed more and more bitterly at Tanza's murderous voice. Just like that, Subaru went out of the room, following the guard who silently urged him to hurry up.

Then, Heine called out "Schwartz" on Svalbard's back.

"Um, um......"

Huh? What's going on?

"Ah, no... I-I can't take care of you." Even if it's like you, if the number of people in the [combination] decreases, we'll be in trouble. "

Svalbard's expressions of dishonest concern made him look sloppy. Then immediately, "Pu" erupted and I nodded back to Heine.

"Hmm, I get it. Well then, I'll see you later."

With a fluttering wave, Svalbard broke up with Tanza and Heine. Then, following the back of the guard walking forward,

Gustav, were you angry?

"... the Governor is not the one to be emotional." Unlike me. "

Svalbard shrank his neck when he was told not to make him angry with an unnecessary word.

△▼△▼△▼△

--That's how they saw Subaru taken away by the guards.

"Hey, what did Schultz do..."

I was just taken away by a guard, but what else did you do besides [Sparka]?

In the room where Tanza and Hein are left, Vitz and Idra show their faces. Both of them were watching Subaru's "Sparka" from the audience seats.

Of course, there were a lot of things I wanted to ask Subaru, who had made such a foolish mistake.

However, from the standpoint of not being as stuck as Heine, I didn't jump out of the audience-

Tanza, do you know what's going on?

"... it's complicated, like you don't know. Seems like Schultz is hiding something from me, too."

”He's an unfamiliar fellow... but he's got a good weapon...”

In response to Tanza's words, Vitz and Idra looked at each other and sighed.

While listening to the three of them, Heine was still holding her breath. He was a lizard whose complexion was difficult to identify, but his swimming eyes were clearly worried about something.

As a result, each of them is called "Heine" and "Heine-sama".

"What, on that side..."

”No, um... you guys are also aware that Schultz was deliberately mixed in with [Sparka], right?”

”That's... if you look at that situation, everyone will”

Idra replies to Heine's strange words, and Tanza and Veitz nod their opinion.

I guess all the swordsmen who were watching the battle in that sword battleground were aware of it. And from everyone's eyes, without Subaru's efforts, today's [Sparka] could not be achieved.

"I don't know what he's up to, but..."

"-" I don't know that either. But, but... "

"-" But what? "

"I don't know exactly why he did it, but I don't know why he did it, but maybe..."

The three of them, besides Heine, could see that it would continue.

Not why Subaru participated in Sparka, but why Subaru survived by participating in Sparka. That was a question for Tanza, but not for Vitz or Idra.

Therefore, the eyes with a strong interest are turned, and Hyayne spits.

And then--

"I heard about this from people just outside... it seems that there is a story out there about the emperor's fallout somewhere." So, that's it... "

――――
