Seirei Gensouki ~Konna Sekai de Deaeta Kimi ni~

Lesson 54: I've met you in a world like this.

A little back in time, Rio came to the source of the earthquake of Odo and Mana, which he sensed on his way to the Kingdom of Bertram.

However, since nearly an hour has already passed since the event occurred, no one is present at the scene.

Stretching his gaze, Rio observed his surroundings carefully.

Then, thinly, we discover traces of stepping on the grass.

There seems to have been someone here.

Do the three footprints belong to women and children because of their size?

The direction stretches in the opposite direction to the forest.

"There was a street over there... You want to go?

What the hell is going on in the Strahl region right now?

There is clearly still a disturbance of Odd and Mana using massive sorcery on this occasion.

Does it have any relation to the light column earlier?

There was a strange heartbeat that couldn't be explained in words, and Rio decided to try to follow in his footsteps.

There is a street ahead.

On the way I found traces of horses treading and vandalizing the earth.

Apparently, the people who have been transferred on this occasion have encountered people on horseback.

No signs of contention existed and the three seemed to head straight to the street with their horses.

Rio followed in further footsteps, eventually reaching the streets, but the streets are trampled and vandalized, so you can't tell from the footprints until which way you went.

…………

When he smashed his tongue small, he confirmed that there were no people around him, and Rio rose high to the sky with the spiritual art of the wind.

Then you can see multiple carriages exist far down the street.

The carriage group was about to split into two hands and go down the street.

Maybe there are three people in one of those carriages who were at the source of the Odo and Mana earthquakes.

I worried about leaving it like this, but decided to follow it.

Which way should I go from?

When we get down to the ground again, we leave it to a one-half chance and get closer to one carriage group.

Then, in just a minute or two, I caught up with the group.

From the look of the boys and girls on the carrier, Rio instantly perceives that the transporter is a slave trader.

The armed groups surrounding them will be the mercenaries of the escort.

The unpleasant feeling intensified, and Rio decided to make contact with the men deploying to escort the troops.

"Oh, what, you?

Noticing the approaching figure of Rio, he turned to some alarming gaze and thought the leader of the escort and the man had spoken.

"Excuse me. I'm looking for people. Didn't you see the three of us acting in the last hour or so?

In the meantime, Rio asks, appealing for no hostility.

"Oh? Those are the three of us acting up?

With an unfamiliar face, a man of this squad's epitome answered.

The man is looking at Girodiro and Rio's entire body.

I slightly rounded my eyes when I noticed an elaborate design on Rio's sword peeking through the gap in my long coat.

I keep my eyes diluted and look at Rio's sword.

Rio intensified his level of vigilance inside.

"I don't know who they are."

A man put his gaze back on Rio's face, where he tried to cut white.

"Ha, help me!

The chopped voice of one girl rang.

A man smacks his tongue small and sends his gaze to the girl.

Rio also sent his gaze to the source of his voice with a hazy face.

It was the brunette girl there.

Next door is a brunette boy in a hurry.

Rio opened his eyes for a moment, but immediately turned his gaze back on the men...

"... oh, she's the one I'm looking for. How is it being put on the carrier with slaves?

And he turned a cold gaze and asked.

Rio's intuition tells me that there's almost no doubt those two have metastasized out of circumstantial evidence.

Above all, her spoken words were decisive.

It is a language that cannot exist in this world, yes, it is Japanese.

"Oh, uh, I don't get the word, but I protected him because he seemed lost. Slaves don't have room for hatred and other people."

A man answers with a nagging voice while suddenly being pressured by an unusual Rio atmosphere.

"She says you need help, though?

Ask and point your gaze at the man as sharply as possible.

Then a man gave me a boring look.

"Shit, you know the language. Looks like it's true what you're looking for."

And there was no bad looks, the man said.

And Rio...

"So can you let that girl and the boy next door go, please?

That's what I say, I look to the man.

The man glanced at the men around him and began to emit swordswallowing air.

"Uh, I can't go home and say yes to criminal activity..."

The moment I tried to pull out my sword, saying something threatening, a concentrated killing erupted from Rio.

All of that is condensed and directed at the man facing Rio.

"Huh!?

Kill me.

The man instantly thought so, but his body doesn't make it slight.

Keep your hands in touch with the pattern of your sword, and your body will tremble in small pieces.

Tastes bad.

Your strength is too different.

Wrong response.

It's not just a kid.

Move on your own and you'll be killed.

If you talk to me on your own, I'll kill you.

If you show a temper to defy them, they will kill you.

I couldn't help but think so.

"Nothing. I'm not even gonna take the slaves you got on the regular route."

Rio changed his tone and spoke to the silent man.

If you do that, Rio becomes a slave robber.

Rio has no sense of purpose in deliberately releasing strange slaves until they commit such a felony.

"I'm just asking you to give me the two slaves you kidnapped. You know what I mean?"

With an icy smile, Rio continued with a pale voice.

"But. We're working too. You can't give it to me that easily."

Shaking his body, the man squeezed out his voice and answered.

I have lived rough things as a living thing, but now the man is so frightened that I have never learned so much fear in my life.

Still trying to resist desperately from the pride they have in their own work.

"Abduction of slaves is illegal. Does your job include illegal activity?

"Well, that's a common thing."

"Right. A common story."

To the man's words, without being able to tolerate his hair, Rio agreed with an emotionless voice.

Yes, nothing unusual.

Weak meat fortification.

Only to the extent that the dominion of power extends does a person abide by the law, and where it does not, those with power become the rule.

The weak cannot complain about whatever is done before the overwhelming strong.

Rio knows that, too.

"But that's what I hate to talk about."

"Hey, what is it? Are you a brave man? That's not fashionable. There are easier ways for you to live. Why don't you just act with us?

"Don't stray from me just now. I told you. This one's got some business for those two, so I'm just gonna help."

"Heh, heh... Just like I said."

"If you find out, hurry up. If we're gonna waste any more time, we're gonna take it really hard, okay?

The last word was decision making.

The man opened his mouth in a hurry to speak to his men who were waiting near the carriage.

"... ok. Hey, unlock it! Get them both out!

"Huh, Lieutenant? Are you sure? If I liberate you on my own, I'll call the captain..."

None of my men, other than the man I was called Deputy Commander, had noticed Rio's killings and had asked me as confused.

A man rages at the word.

"Ugh! You idiot! Are you dead!? This is a mercenary who's alive with his money. Find the trigger!

Analytical ability to notice the strength of the person in front of you.

It is an essential ability to live as a mercenary.

Those who are not equipped with it cannot live long as mercenaries.

Normally, strength seeps out with the awesomeness of battle, but some of them do not immediately know its strength.

The man knew.

Many of these people usually look like bugs don't kill, and when they're in action, they don't hesitate to kill people.

Rio was exactly that.

I was only lucky that a man could realize the strength of Rio.

If Rio had set it up all at once before he let go of his killing temper, he would surely have been killed.

"Get those guys out of here now if you know what I mean!

"Heh, heh!

A man called the deputy commander reprimanded him harder than expected, and his men rushed to open the carriage door.

That's how Aki and Yasama are taken out politely.

They were freed when they got off the carriage, and the two came to Rio roughly.

"Isn't the other one here?

"Oh, the other one was going to sell high as a whore, so I headed off on a different route"

A man answers Rio's questions without covering them up.

If Aki and Yamato confirm it, we'll soon find out Miharu isn't in this carriage, but he's trying to make Rio's heart certificate a little better.

"You broke up in the street before you got here, didn't you?

"Oh. Right."

Upon hearing the necessary facts, Rio shifted his gaze to Aki and Jason as if he had lost interest in the men.

Moment after moment, I somehow felt a sense of pre-sight in Aki and stared slightly haphazardly at its face, but immediately abandoned it.

"... let's go. I don't have time right now. There's one more, isn't there?

He manipulated Japanese with a strange pronunciation and spoke to both of them.

There's no reason not to help the rest of us more than I helped these two.

Instead, it would be easier to sell thanks and listen.

"Huh? Ah, Japanese? An outsider?"

Aki seems to have understood Rio's words, but did the pronunciation sound like a single word, or did he mistake Rio for an outsider in conjunction with his appearance?

"We're going to run a little bit. You, give me a break."

For the Jazz, Rio said.

"Huh? If you do that, it'll be the other way around..."

Jasmine answers as confused.

It was an inefficient and extreme act to run people behind their backs in Yaman's common sense.

"Just hurry up. You don't have to be able to help the rest of us?

The words inspired Jazz to ride on the back of Auntie and Rio.

In Rio, which is already at the end of its growing season, and in the Yakuza, which is about to enter its growing season, it is not, among other things, an imbalance, since it has an opening of more than twenty centimetres in height.

"You too. You may be a little embarrassed, but be patient with me."

Say, Rio can hold Ashi.

"Shh..."

Aki leaks a small scream.

It's a rare sight from the sight of it, but the men around them were silently staring at it without ridiculing themselves.

"We're both holding on tight. Especially if you're not caught tight yourself in the back, they'll shake you off. All right?"

"Uh, yes."

Rio prompts me, and the Yakuza is firmly caught by Rio.

Confirming that.

"Wow!"

"Yikes!"

Rio ran out at once.

It takes more recoil than expected, and the two of them leak a small scream.

Akichi and Yaman were flabbergasted by the rapidly accelerating Rio with Gungu.

"I've never even heard of those kid rumors. That's more than a captain."

Only the mercenaries of the escort and the enslaved boys and girls were left on the spot.

Seeing Rio behind him running faster than a horse with both of them, he remembered Rio's unhesitant killing earlier, and the man shuddered.

"Oh, that! Where is this place?

Looking up at Rio's face from close range, Aki asked.

From earlier on Rio has continued to run at a rate that is very unrivaled for humans to let out, but he hasn't had a single shortness of breath.

He thought that it might be okay to talk to him, and decided to check the status quo thoughtfully.

"This is the Strahl region of the Euphorian continent, near the border of a country called St. Stella there."

Rio answers Aki's questions accurately.

"Oh, isn't this Japan?

Aki gave a flashy look at the names of the continents, places and countries that were completely unfamiliar.

"Japan…. No, I'm not."

Speaking emotionally of the country name Japan, Rio denied Ashi's doubts.

"So it could be somewhere on Earth?

roughly Asuki asks.

That gaze contained feelings like expecting something.

"It's not Earth. Unfortunately for you."

But Rio stumbled back on an answer that would break the expectations of such a subdivision.

Aki doesn't swallow the facts and gives me a suspicious look.

"Ah, here then... And why the words..."

Aki shrugged in disgust.

The voice reaches Rio's ears, which, together with his physical abilities, are also enhanced by five senses.

But Rio dared pretend not to hear it.

I've aided Akira and the others in my efforts, but now I need some time to sort my head out.

How can there be Japanese in this world in the first place?

I want to hear more about why.

And...

(What to do. These kids...)

The question is how far should you relate to Akida?

From the looks of it, Aki is supposed to be a junior high school student and Yakuza is supposed to be about the age of a junior high school student.

I don't know how old the other person is that we've come together, but it would be impossible first of all to be thrown out into a world where words don't make sense and live on their own.

The fate awaits is death, or abducted and enslaved by the malevolent again, as was the case earlier, perhaps one in two.

(Is it bad aftertaste to just ask the boulder about the situation and say goodbye)

We'll need to teach the words and take care of them until we can at least live our own lives.

Then the question arises as to how far you reveal your identity, including information from your previous life.

Now Rio is hiding his identity.

Looks like the coup d 'état happened, but Rio had been arranged for a nomination in the Kingdom of Beltram a few years ago.

I wasn't even going to come back much at the time just to escape, but I have to work in this region for a while from now on.

As far as possible, the identity will have to be hidden.

That's why this is how they even make their own demon props and change.

Aki and Yasama will be living together for a while, but it also seems like you don't need to dare to teach your own qualities if you are to assume that you will leave sooner or later.

But when we're going to be living together for a long time, I can't deny that it's easier for us to teach you things together.

…………

For now, you may be right to name a pseudonym and explain the situation after seeing how it goes.

Rio thought so.

"Oh, uh, how can you speak Japanese?

While Rio was thinking, Aki seemed to have recovered from perplexity and had asked that.

I do not regret the fact that I used Japanese more than I could communicate and collect information without using Japanese.

Of course, I can't deny it's slightly cumbersome.

It would be harder to mislead the reason than we have already had this conversation.

Unlike the name, if you spit a bad lie, you might be mistaken for a lot of things.

I've come up with a few proper lies, but they're just something I've come up with aggressively, something that seems obviously suspicious.

Is it a matter like lying in the first place?

"... that's because I once lived in Japan."

Set aside for a few moments, Rio replied so.

"What, you lived in Japan?

Aki tilted her neck and gave her a strange look.

This is not Earth.

However, the boy in front of him said he spoke Japanese and used to live in Japan.

What do you mean?

At least Rio's appearance is not pure Japanese.

The same goes for the color of my hair, and my face feels like a pure outsider or at best a half.

(Were you a homecoming child of an international student or a half?

Aki mistook it that way.

"Let's put that story aside for now. Mind if I give you my name for now?

The story moves on, with the two of them delicately in the wrong place.

"Oh, I'm Aki Chido"

"Aki Chido. Aki......?

Whimpering, Rio stares at Aki's face.

"Ah, yes. Is that a weird name?

Stared at him from nearby, Aki asked slightly reddening his face.

"No, I think it's a good name."

Oh, my God, Rio answered...

"Oh, thank you......"

Aki makes her face even more red.

"So, what's your name back there?

There was no way to notice such a change in the subdiscipline, and Rio asked the jade carrying his name behind him.

"Oh, I'm a Chido Yakuza!

And, in some exciting tone, the Yakuza names it.

He seems impressed by the shifting landscape.

"Right. I'm Hurt."

"... Hurt?

Naming the previous life names used by Rio as pseudonyms slightly changed the atmosphere of Aki.

He's whining about Rio's pseudonym in an inorganic voice somewhere.

"... what's wrong with my name?

"Oh, no, it's nothing..."

Shake your head with momentum and deny Aki is anything.

"Right...... You two are sisters and brothers, right? One of your brothers or something?

"No, I have another brother, but, uh, we weren't connected by blood until earlier, but for us, he's like a sister."

"I'm sorry. Apparently we caught up. Will you wait here for a moment?

Where Aki is answering the question, Rio can cover his words.

Reinforced Rio's vision captured the moving carriage on the far side.

Akira and the others will only see it as blurry.

"I'm going to talk to them. Is that girl the same brunette you guys are?

Stopping to hide in the shadows of an affordable rock, Rio gently lowered the two.

"Yes. That's right. That, thank you!

"Oh, I'm fine. Don't move out of this rock shadow because it's dangerous. There shouldn't be any dangerous creatures around, but don't put your face out of the rocks."

With a serious face, Rio told me to tell you both.

Though far-sighted, maybe they'll show a nasty sight.

It also means its prevention, but it also purely considers the safety of the two of us.

That's unlikely, but in case an aggressive organism flying in the sky doesn't necessarily come close, it's not preferable for two people who can't defend themselves to appear obnoxious.

"Wow, I get it"

"Yes!"

Noticed by Rio, Aki and Jasmine answer with a nervous voice.

"Good boy. We'll talk again when we get back."

Smiling to reassure him, Rio followed the scene in a light foothold.

Rio's movements are very sophisticated, even from Aki's point of view.

Rio would be fine if they helped themselves.

Believing that unconditionally, Aki offered her prayers.

Leaping out of the shadow of the rock, Rio moves straight towards the end of the street in the direction of the carriage.

"May I have a word?

That's how he got ahead of the carriage, stopping in the street and talking in a polite tone to keep his opponent off guard.

Then the merchants stop walking.

"What?

The mercenary leader of the escort and a big man looked down at Rio from the top of his horse and asked back in a cold voice.

He wraps his muscular body in fine leather armor, underneath which he wears claus armor.

I glance at Rio without alarm and pull out the sword I put on my hips.

There is no way that Rio is insulting him to the extent that he has grown hair on his children, like the man that Rio was relative to earlier.

If the similarly armed Rio pulled out his sword, he could see it slashed instantly.

"I heard you protected the brunette girl in this merchant squad."

"What's the matter!?

As Rio tried to cut out an errand, a man of his own appeared from a subsequent carriage, pinching words.

I guess this man is the slave trader leading the merchant corps.

He seems in a bad mood, either because of the sudden suspension of the progress.

Rio took a small sigh.

"Looks like you protected the brunette girl in this merchant squad earlier. I am the guardian of that child. Thank you for your safe protection."

After I said that, I smiled and smiled without emotion.

It is clear that the other person abducted Miharu, but Rio dares say this.

It's a far-fetched appeal to get on with this story if you want to make it easy.

If they put this through, they'll either intimidate you like they did earlier, or, worst of all, they'll have to go out and exercise their strengths.

"... I don't know him like that"

But the slaver cut white flat.

Close your eyes softly and look back at Rio, who laughs cold.

The two gaze crossed.

"That's crazy. I've already recovered the two of them I got protected with here...... May I check the carriage behind you for anything?

Not to mention trouble, Rio shrugged his shoulder.

That look remains unchanged with a cold grin.

The expression of the slave trader distorts uncomfortably.

"... kill it"

In a cold voice, the slaver ordered Rio's murder.

Mercenary leaders laugh small...

"Okay."

Nodded.

Running his horse all at once, he rushes to Rio.

The man instantly packed his time with Rio.

At this stage, it's too late for me to hit the kill and intimidate you.

Rio sighed small.

……

Moment after moment, I thought Rio's appearance was blurred...

The sound of the meat being cut off echoed.

The body of the man on the horse leans, slightly delayed and the blood erupts.

Momentarily, the backward bloodlust rushed his nose, and Rio glanced slightly.

"Huh!?

Slavers raise their voices not screaming at the sight.

The other mercenaries who watched around them are also stunned and round their eyes.

Soon Rio's single-handed sword, which was pulled out, tucked into the sheath without a drop of returned blood.

At the same time, a man's body collapses to the ground from the top of a horse that keeps running.

There was silence all around.

"If I could, I'd appreciate it if you'd do it one last time now."

Looking at the slave trader with cold eyes, but as troubled, Rio said.

That relaxed voice scratches the war of slave traders.

Beneath his eyes was the body of a mercenary in a battle who had his torso severed in two and was desperate unaware of his own death.

That eye fits, and the slaver's knee is about to collapse.

I barely enjoyed it, but instead the full breadth of trust I had with the mercenary man collapsed with a sound.

"Which carriage is the child you abducted on?

"Hih, uh, the second one from behind..."

Called, the slaver leaked a small scream.

With a glimpse of the slave trader answering with a trembling voice and no appearance of vigilance around him, Rio approaches the carriage in a relaxed foothold.

No, there's no need to be alarmed.

It was clearly found that slave traders who are not samurai also have that much difference in strength.

The man that Rio slaughtered and killed earlier is a known mercenary there.

That's what makes me so strong that even when I deal with all the other mercenaries on this occasion, I can't think of a vision of losing.

You could call such a man Rio divine speed. He pulled out his sword at a speed and slashed it while his surroundings were unnoticed.

The mercenaries around them are just staring at Rio approaching the carriage.

I guess they who are mercenaries know the difference in strength more than they who are merchants.

Seeing the sight of the mercenaries in Rio's progression blurring their faces and retreating vigorously, the slavers thought so.

By that time, Miharu had an unspeakable anxiety.

All of a sudden, I wondered if the carriage had stopped, and suddenly I was agile to feel the ambient air.

Older young girls wrapping thin dirty clothes around Miharu have reacted similarly.

There's a little bit of tight body odor in the car, but that doesn't bother me right now.

Two, one human footsteps reached my ear.

The person slowly approaches their carriage.

Then the Lord of Footsteps stopped in front of their carriage.

At once, Mi-chun's heart beats.

Sending an approximate gaze, there was one boy standing there.

I move my gaze and stare at the faces of the girls in the carriage.

Looking for people, apparently.

Eventually the boy's gaze was fixed on Miharu.

The boy stares at Miharu like a sneer.

Miharu almost sucked into the boy's eyes unexpectedly.

Keep it up. The boy and Miharu stare at each other in silence.

As if time had stopped, the boy would not move one thing.

That was the same with Miharu.

"Mi...... honey?

When the boy whines small about something, tears fall zero out of his eyes.

That seemed so beautiful and annoying that Miharu also wanted to cry why.
