Chapter III: 46: The Jaw of the White Whale
In the wind with the splash, Subaru gained the illusion of being beaten straight from the front.
"- Huh!"
My body floats in a storm that can beat me all over my body, and I'm about to be thrown outside over your podium as it is. A finger stretched out like this reaches nothing, and the body falls into the dark with no shelter whatsoever - on the brink,
"-L-Kun!
The posture is forcefully controlled directly down with the force of grasping the back collar. There is the appearance of Rem, who is slammed from his butt into his seat as he swings it down, reaching for the edge of his spark scattered vision, the neck of Subaru, and squeezing his reins with his opposite hand.
She floated to its neat side with a sharp eye toward the direction of the wind blowing,
"- Huh!!
Lem barks enough to open his mouth and peek at his sharp, pointy dog teeth.
but even her mood for that rift doesn't even reach the nearest Subaru swallowed by the storm.
But Mana, who filled the atmosphere with her screams that did not reach the tympanic membrane, heard.
Mana converges into a spitting lem chant and activates the magic that creates and changes the world.
Born is an ice spear as good as Subaru's stature. That instantly puts three, hollow shaped, sharp tips into darkness.
After a moment of stagnation, the ice spear was ejected like an arrow with a faint momentum.
The ice pile of velocity, which is finally followed by the eyes, sets its aim in the darkness and bursts, landing a bullet - the tip of the ear pokes at the unexpectedly close end of the darkness, which seemed endless.
Immediately after,
"- Huh!?
Again, if you think you feel like you've been grabbed by the neck, you can keep pulling it up this time all at once. The seats are turned away so that they can be pulled out, and Subaru is stuck in the night sky without being able to resist.
A running dragon car under his eyes gradually drifts away in a universe where he jumps over your platform and is launched to leave the dragon car behind.
Falling. A falling dragon if a horse falls - Subaru saw at the same time that such a sentence escapes the reality that passes his brain.
The massive mass of the assault smashed the dragon car into pieces of wood.
The heavily made body pulled a thousand pieces like a piece of paper or something, and the large ground dragon that was pulling it was also scattered into shock - punching the flesh through the street with his guts, turning into a mince where pieces of wood and flesh mixed together.
Subaru's thoughts stain blankly with that overly distant sight.
Shock footage of myself losing even the fact that I'm in the hollow right now. subaru, who flies consciousness to the tragedy that happened in front of him, sanctified the
"Left -!!"
Because right around the corner, there was the voice of a girl who was uttered yelling.
For a moment, the body rolls down onto the hard floor without even being able to receive it. A dull pain ran on his shoulders and hips, but he swung to the centrifugal force that accompanied the sharp swirl before raising his voice of protest at it.
Rolling, I grabbed something like a rope on my fingertips and stopped it softly as it was about to be thrown again. Placing a beat, Svalbard, with his face up, looked around and realized that it was Otto's dragon car carrier that he was.
Part of the front dragon car clasp. With the drooping rope tangled around his wrist, Subaru tries to get up somehow in a severe shake. There,
"No, Subaru! Don't stand up! Ground dragon protection is out. Rem and Subaru can't move properly!
Sharp Rem's attention flew toward Subaru, who struggled with upright.
Look, Rem, who likewise landed on Otto's dragon car, is somehow supporting his body by piercing his right hand knife on the floor. Even her physical abilities make it difficult to stand upright in this wobble.
The violent tremor I remember is the effect of the unraveling of the aid to the flesh by the grounddragon's cohesive protection. The protection of the ground dragon, which eliminates obstacles such as wind, sound and shaking, is cut off, making his chest worse and even making it difficult for him to stand.
Understanding that, and seeing what Rem looks like, Subaru finally grasps the situation.
In other words, Lem held Subaru and flew from the blowing dragon car to Otto's. Just for a moment, if her judgment had been delayed, they would have both been with the dragon car and its fate. The limbs are blown up, and they're part of the ground beef that won't hold the prototype.
Shaking off his fear rushing through his zorr spine, Subaru raised his voice unbeatable by the wind and driving noise as he leaned against the edge of the carrier,
"Hey, what happened!? What the hell is this guy..."
An anomaly that happened in just a few dozen seconds. I can't keep up with the intensity of that density.
"Don't you get it!?
But Otto looks back with a screaming voice at that bewildering Subaru.
And he paled his face, as he cried with trembling roots of his teeth,
"There's night fog! There is only one thing that swims in the sky with mist and such a giant!
His voice had been invaded by tremors characteristic of the desperate.
As I'm sure, as I refuse to admit if I don't want to, I shake my head reluctantly, breathing desperately in my cramped lungs, and Otto screams full of strength.
"- It's a white whale!!
- White whale.
The only thing I've heard that name about is the world for the first time ever.
A monstrous designation for fogging and blocking the streets. The first world was to bypass the streets on its way home on the grounds of its white whale that it was out on Reefaus Street. It can be said that that was the reason for the first time and that we did not make it to the tragedy that took place in the village and the mansion.
but I didn't actually encounter it, and I haven't heard the name since. That's
"Are you out at this time?!?
By the time I left Wang Capital half a day ago, there should have been no reports of the appearance of white whales anywhere.
Rem didn't mention it, and more importantly, the Ottos, who were supposed to be the profession of repelling white whales, also used the streets. The white whale came out after the Subaru's departure.
- No, on the contrary, it sucks, didn't this guy just show up on the street at this moment?
It fits on the time schedule.
It was the third day that Subaru and the others left in the world for the first time. At that point, the streets were blocked by the emergence of white whales. And now it's the middle of the night of the second day - assuming the emergence of the white whale is known in the morning, tomorrow we'll meet around the time the streets are sealed off.
I mean, if I were to bump into you, it was only tonight.
"No way in Lugnica this time of year... hit the white whale, I can't believe it... oh, dragon, dragon. Save me, save me..."
Bumping with vain eyes, Otto mouths salvation like a memory Buddha.
Completely, to the appearance of a loss of life rather than of war, Subaru realizes the veracity of the word merchants fear white whales.
In the previous world Otto expressed to Subaru that a white whale is a symbol of vicious omen for merchants. At that time, it was something I thought to myself, exaggerating, but if I saw Otto's shuddering that I had actually encountered the fog, I couldn't help but wonder what a childish expression even that was.
Otto shivering his lips and manipulating his reins without being here. His ground dragon is in a state of panic by detecting the presence of white whales, kicking the ground and increasing speed at a rate that has tempered the rest of his health.
Turning Subaru gazes into the darkness as he savours its swings directly all over his body. Let your gaze wander in search of the white whale, but the pitch black, which has lost its light source, is completely closing the world. Originally it's a dark, dark night and even dangerous at hand without the lights. Besides,
"If you think it's gonna stick... you're gonna get fog"
Feel a different drop of cold sweat on your forehead, and face the feeling of wet palms hitting you.
Even in a night without light, assuming it's even foggy, securing sight is hopeless. In fact, the light of the crystalline lamp illuminating the lower neck of the running ground dragon has also become obscured and blurred by night mist, which has not been able to exert its efficacy by as much as half.
"Rem! Can you see the white whale!?
"It's too dark to do so!... but!
Svalbard looks around behind, beside, and up, looking for fish shadows like that. Rem responded to that Subaru voice with grief, stopping the words in a part that seemed confusing to him about something.
I look at her worried about it, but I can't even ask for that look anymore in the deep fog just because I know it in the silhouette.
The invisibility of the white whale, which is the cause of this situation, further accelerates the fear.
When Subaru first found his eyes, thinking of him as a white whale, were those eyes bigger than the rings Subaru could make with both arms?
For one eye, its size means that white whales, as its name suggests, really have a physique comparable to whales.
"But Rem's pre-emptive attack should be hitting.... there's a chance they pulled it off."
Would it be too optimistic?
The power of the ice spear punched in with Rem's chant is so much faster to count from above among the magic you've ever seen, that Subaru would have died once in a single bottle, three times in total.
When it comes to the owner of a giant body, let's be frightened if we take the deep hand.
"The other dragon cars..."
"I'm scattered and running away. Breaking up and running away immediately when the fog appears. If you're lucky, the white whale won't catch you, and getting out of the fog should come true"
I see, indeed, there is no dragon car that runs alongside this dragon car.
Until then, the other dragon cars that should certainly have been there as a successor are scattered according to that manual.
- Inside, Subaru bites his spare time at the fact that he lost his secured leg because of it.
The timing is too bad. The arithmetic to take the village dwellers away collapsed again. Or if it wasn't foggy, it would have been both a preventive line against another threat.
"I can't help but regret it. Anyway, through the fog..."
Tasteing the discomfort of being scratched in the gut by a severe shake, Subaru puts his thoughts on the problems that follow his escape. If the dragon car has become one, we need to figure out a way to get the villagers away after we let Emilia and the others go. The extra time loss is also huge.
Thus, before Subaru's eyes with a view from the immediate predicament to the more ahead, that is, ahead of the dragon car's path -,
――――
An oral cavity lined with mighty teeth like stone molars approached me from the front of my eyes without swallowing a dragon car whole.
The roar roars, and the earth dragon thumps in its overwhelming sound violence and blast. I pulled my legs together and scraped the ground, and the wheels floated and the carriage of the dragon car leaned wide. An oiled kettle breaks his front and blows up, and Subaru, who was grasping at the edge, is also about to be thrown out in jeopardy.
Desperately grabbing onto the carrier, the front I could see - in the darkness, only the thin dirty teeth in the mouth of the white whale clearly floated.
that, to this moment, Subaru gains an understanding that his perception was too sweet.
We encountered a white whale, and the current situation wandered through the deep night mist. That was already shifting the issue to those who couldn't afford to turn their thoughts to the aftermath of the mist, but now how to survive this moment.
"-Ruhhh!
At the moment when his jaw approached as much as he could swallow the dragon car with ease, the roar burst and the slab floor of the carrier bounced off with the impact.
It was Lem who kicked him and jumped forward like a bullet. A haunted state that exposed sharp horns from under a white prime that leads to a storm. And the lem was gone, and he swayed the chained iron sphere that had been removed.
"- Run through to the left!!
"Hida, hida, hida!!
The iron sphere smashes the white whale's upper jaw directly from the top, causing it to slightly close its open jaw as it ejects more and more black blood smoke. Otto's dragon car, spitting and mindlessly controlling the ground dragon, ran right next to the giant face that determined the earth and still had no loss of propulsion.
The carrier of a running dragon car, the right side of which is caught in the crossing without turning off its gigantic body, turns up a rubbing sound like rubbing it against a stiff rock skin and squeaks away. The carrier, which lost its wheels, swoops heavily, losing balance and turning it upside down.
Naturally, Subaru, who was on it, was about to be thrown out into the darkness without the art of exchange,
- Die?
Shortly before the retarded reward of circumstantial judgment ruthlessly dispersed the body, a distorted and mild metal chained sound sounded, the pain of being squeezed through the torso without mercy - floated from underfoot to be pulled through, pulled down forward.
And
"Eat, yeah, yeah -!!"
With the iron ball pulled up Subaru in his right hand, and with his empty left hand, a lem that destroyed the connecting part of your platform and carrier grabbed the end of the carrier that was detached and kept away - momentarily, a load occurred that caused the ground dragon pulling the dragon car to sizzle, shouted and flashed, and a large cargo vehicle was thrown backwards by the lem.
An ultra-large mass bullet, like throwing one hut, hits directly on the flank of a passing white whale. The crushing sound of the wood crushing and scattering, the tail of the white whale that twirls itself blasts the earth, scattering earth lumps.
I don't know if it was damaged. But there is no doubt that the white whale is still alive. More importantly, the fact that you swim around the universe and stare at this one too.
"Ya, did you -!?"
Even if I don't understand what happened, I guess I understand the fact that the majority of my dragon cars have been lost. On account of all the sacrifices he had made, the only hope for a yakuza roundabout was on the upper side of Otto's voice that would make the inquiry.
A roaring roar. A grunt that never fits. Pressure in the name of despair, looming from behind. In front of these, knowing that it's a dream that means nothing.
"How come we're not the only ones who stubbornly... prey!?
Summoning scatter, Otto curses our own misfortune.
Even though there were eight other groups of candidates, there was a dissatisfaction with the irrationality of being attacked. Subaru also agreed, but watching Otto continue to curse his lips, he was told to say it.
Throwing away stones, or walls of meat - assuming they were relative to witchcraft, I felt like I had a glimpse of how Subaru might have used them.
Besides, there's no room for thinking about that either.
The threat of the white whale still looms behind it, and its speed of swimming in the sky snuggles through the ground dragon. It's only a matter of time before they catch up, even on a ground dragon that throws away the heavy load of luggage. And if we lose the ground dragon, we have no eyes at all that the Subaru can run off on their own.
I have to think. Nothing, nothing, nothing.
But I can't think of anything to open it up to. I couldn't even find a hint in the spreading night fog that made even underfoot invisible in an attempt to work out an allowance or gradual strategy.
And the ghost girl makes her own decision as Svalbard spends her time carelessly with nothing to choose from once in a while.
Lem walks softly over to Subaru, which is shaken hard and wraps around the body of the vehicle. you'd be feeling the same shock. She wouldn't let you feel it. Leaning against Subaru in the footsteps,
"Subaru kun. Take this."
"What!? Something can be done about this place..."
It is a slightly weighted sachet that was pressed into Subaru's hand with a slightly raised face as to whether he could see the light. Face the weight, and soon realize with the feel from the outside of the bag that it is a road and silver bag containing coins such as gold.
What use is this gold in this place now?
I couldn't get enough of the chills on Rem, who had given me to push the road bank, and Subaru stuck a rising grin on his cheek,
"Fuck, Rem......? I know money throwing can be powerful in breaking the balance of power, but that's just... talking about games..."
"Rem descends into the earth and intercepts. In the meantime, Subaru, please leave the fog with this person."
Clearly, that's what Rem told Subaru in a resolute voice.
Subaru, who was about to flush the field with a thirsty light mouth, is knocked over by it and pushed silently. In the meantime, Rem just turned his neck,
"Dear Otto, Subaru, please. The promised reward is in his hands. - Please get out of the fog and report the appearance of the white whale."
"Or money......!? In the meantime, it's a thing with life!?
Otto's response that he hadn't heard the exchange behind. Still, Subaru saw Lem loosen his lips in relief only telling him that he was desperate to run a dragon car.
And Subaru hasn't missed a listen. telling Subaru and Otto to reward the White Whale for coming out means
"You... Rem, you, you're going back alive, aren't you?!?
Rem clouds his expression with sad determination.
Even though the darkness was falling unconsciously without turning into a dark world, only her white face somehow seemed somewhat clearer to Subaru today.
"I won't let you go, I won't let you go! If you die, I... I am!
He dropped the gold bag underfoot and drew Rem's hips standing in front of him.
Hold your little body in your arms and connect and stop its presence trying to stay away. If I let this hand go, she'll even shake off her life and pop out.
That's all we have to stop. Otherwise,
"Ah......"
The embracing lem leaks a hot exhale amidst a passion that is about to cause tears.
Dropping her gaze at that indulgent sound on the field, Rem looked up at this one in Subaru's arms, smiling inadvertently.
"Rem was born for this time now, wasn't he?"
"What..."
I'm telling you, I couldn't keep saying it.
The impact hits the back of the neck muscle, and the feeling that the world flips hits Subaru.
Rem, who extended his arm to hold him back, hit him in the back of the head with a knife. Strength falls out of the body and leans against Lem's body to collapse.
"Gee, mu... what..."
Swinging not only in sight, but even in consciousness, Subaru desperately grabs at the girl as she becomes even more difficult to lift her neck.
As such, Lem stares at Subaru with a merciful eye and whispers in this ear to catch up with the distant consciousness. It's
"It's okay. Rem has always been behind Subaru."
- You don't have to do anything. Stay behind me the whole time.
Before leaving, it was Subaru himself who told her that this morning.
So as the word goes, she stands to protect behind Subaru, stand.
"No... I'm such a..."
Consciousness falls.
Keep away. I can't keep it.
For once, I felt like I was hugged hard.
On the forehead, a gentle and soft feeling is applied, leaving immediately.
And that was the last time.
