Soul Eater of the Rebellion

"... will everyone be all right, sister?"

Yamato asked her sister worriedly as she heard the alarm ringing in the fort of Mount Daixing.

Lan nodded loudly to strengthen his brother.

It's all right. A strong soldier from Mt. Tsubaki can't be beaten like a monster.

Lan said with all his confidence, but if he listened carefully, he would have noticed that the end of the word was slightly trembling.

If it had been a year ago, Lan's voice would not have trembled.

At that time, Mount Tsubaki was the most powerful power in the demon world, and under his father, Guien, Meng was brave and determined until he was a soldier.Lan and Yamato, who grew up in Nishido, protected by the Tsuboyama army, had never felt the threat of this monster.

And it was defeated in the mountains, and the king of his father died in battle, and Lan and Yamato fled out of the castle, being guarded by their princes.The weak mother stayed in the west city for fear that she would be the helper of her children, but her sister and brother knew it only after she left the west city.

After that, Lan and the others traveled east and west in order to escape the pursuer, and finally reached Daxing Mountain on the periphery.

The Tsuboyama army built a fortress there and stood there -- it sounded good, but there was actually no other place to go, and it was just hiding in the shadows of the Nakayama army.

Lan was neglected in the fields of politics and strategy, but she understood that her situation was still blocked.

If a person who grew up with no inconvenience as a princess of Mt. Tsubaki was forced to sleep for days and days in a house where only raw trees were assembled, insight would sprout in the unknown princess of the world.Besides, the only meals that come out are the terribly salty soup and the stony hard soba noodles.This shouldn't give us any hope.

Still, Lan did not complain to those around him because he was taught by his mother not to behave in the manner in which he wore his position.

Sleeping on a roof, no matter how crude, and dining on a daily basis, the orchids are more common than other generals.Above all, even though Yamato, who was younger than himself, had not complained at all, her sister, Lan, could not vomit a soft sound.

Yamato is still worried about the generals fighting outside, not himself.Lan once again vowed to his heart that he would not let this child escape from Nakayama's demonic hand.

It was then that the walls of the room where they were blew up with the roar.

"Yamato!!"

Many fragments of shattered wall trees rained down on Lan's body, which held her brother tightly.One of the sharpened fragments blurred, and a streak of blood drained from the run's forehead.

Lan realized that, but he didn't have time to shed his blood.It was because a monster appeared from the collapsed wall.

Two long stretched tactile sensations, two gurgling compound eyes, a huge chin (chin) wet with blood.The left and right arms are made to look like sickles, and four legs stretch from the swollen torso.

To put it in a nutshell, it was a mess.However, it is not as big as the bugs that Lan has seen in the palace garden.At this size, we could even prey on demons as food - no, maybe after we actually preyed on them.

The jaw of the monster (chin), which opened and closed on the left and right with a creepy sound, glowed red as if it was wet with blood.

Sister!

"Yamato, behind me!"

Releasing his brother's body, Lan quickly took the dagger out of his flashlight and confronted the monster.

However, his face was pale, and his hand holding the dagger was trembling.Lan hadn't mastered martial arts or sorcery that would allow him to fight monsters head-on.What I learned was that defense magic was at best assuming that it would be against demons.Of course, I had no experience fighting monsters.

Speaking of which, Lan hated insects.Not to mention that at such a size, the disgust is greater than fear.If it wasn't for her firmness, Lan would be scolding herself inside, but her limbs would tremble.

If I hadn't been aware that I hadn't protected my younger brother, I would have fallen asleep here.

I saw the entrance reflexively because I expected the soldier who saw the anomaly to come to my aid.If this were the palace of the West Capital, the guard would have jumped in and protected my sister and brother.

However, the Tsuboyama army could not afford to keep soldiers posted for the escort of the orchids.I can't even escort Yamato, the head of the rebellion.That is the current situation in Daxing Mountain.

It was also unlucky that an escort named Kurt, who was followed by the Mitsugami Shrine, had left his seat.

But even if that young man were here, he wouldn't be able to protect himself, Lan thinks.Kurt was obviously dissatisfied with his role as an escort, and Keikoku stands out in his actions toward the orchids.

As a matter of fact, Lan secretly suspected that Kurt was a spy for the Nakayama army.

"... Yamato, I'll give you a signal from now on."Then run, and flee, and go to the Lord of Scorpions. "

"So, but then, your sister...!"

“I'll be right behind you.Got it? "

Yamato can only nod if her sister tells her to push her over.

With a trembling voice, yes, he nodded and remembered his sorry for his brother, and Lan said, "Run!when I tried to scream. "

A new individual entered the room from the entrance.It was the same monster as the first Kamakiri.With Yamato's small scream, Lan noticed a new individual and flushed his expression with despair.

Did you see it as a gap, or did you think that you could not take the prey in one piece? The first monster that entered the room attacked the orchid by sprinkling both sickles.

The green scythe filled with sight, and Lan snorted and closed his eyes.

The next moment, Lan was ready to tear his arm apart like a sickle.

But...

…………

The shock never came.

Instead, I heard my younger brother's voice bouncing with joy.

Kurt!

In a hurry to be encouraged by the voice, Lan looked at the figure of a grey-haired young man who was standing with his back turned to protect himself.

Immediately thereafter, something falls to the floor as you make a sudden sound.When Lan realized that it was the left and right arm of the monster slashed down by somebody, a sharp voice emanated from Kurt's mouth.

"Drink!!"

The whipping Kurt's voice blew away the monster as if it were a weapon of its own.The monster that had lost both arms was pushed out through the hole in the wall it had opened.

No, it's not just being pushed out.At the end of Lan's gaze, the neck (neck) of the monster in the shape of a pimple was drowsy, her legs were torn apart, and her swollen belly was ripped open to expose the organs inside.

Kurt defeated the monster with a voice of temper.

Unexpectedly exhaling a sigh of relief, Lan remembers the existence of another one here, and in a hurry, he issues a warning to Kurt.But as he looked back at the entrance, Lan realized that he didn't need it.

There lies a dying monster with its neck and torso amputated, moving its limbs as if they had been mutilated.It seemed like he was barely alive, but it was clear that it would not be long.It was also clear that it was the Kurt who slashed the monster.

Are you okay?

"Yes! Thank you, Kurt!"

Looking back, Kurt asked, and Yamato replied happily.

Lan also tried to thank him in a hurry, but his words didn't come out well.However, for a moment, the recoil of preparing to die against the monster's opponent could not be stopped, and his body trembled in a small amount.

Kurt seemed to have noticed the abnormality in Run, but he decided that there was nothing wrong with his life, so he didn't want to repeat the words anymore.

It wasn't long before the Tsuboyama army defeated all the monsters.

"I have to thank Lord Kurt many times."Without you, Master Yamato and Master Lan might have become the bait for the monsters.If that happens, I don't know what to apologize to Master Guien of the Underworld for! "

That's why I laughed with Gahaha when I was a grand martial artist named Scarecrow.He is the mastermind of this rebellion and the de facto commander of the Tsubayama army.

Formerly a warrior counted among the 16 spears of Mt. Takayama, he was also famous as a mujahideen, but as a leader of the rebels, he was undeniably lacking in sophistication.And it is also manifested in words and deeds.

Neither can the current words be uttered in front of Lan and Yamato, which are the main muscles.In the first place, it was the commander, the scorpionfish, that put the Yamato at risk.

But the scarecrow is laughing at it without realizing it - no, maybe he did.It is possible that the psychology of the scorpions who do not normally call Yamato to the military agenda is related to the fact that they only call Yamato to the military agenda today.

Kurt, whose name was called by the scarecrow, did not even try to return the words just by looking back at the opponent with cold eyes.

Later, the scorpionfish raised some topics in front of the assembled generals, but none of them led to an improvement in the status quo, and the junta seemed to end up without any results as before.

But before the scarecrow could close, Yamato flicked his mouth.

Situated at the helm of shape, Yamato makes a proposal for the scorpions and for those gathered at the military assembly.

― ― It was a plan to surrender to Nakayama and wish for the lives of the generals in exchange for their own lives.
