Sword of Glutton Princess

Chapter 55: Opening Strategies

Having successfully defeated Zildo's men, we were running through the woods to escape the Kanvyas.

I'm Garlock, and Mani's carrying Edda and pulling Celia's hand.

"... we were talking about a village nearby, right? So let's get Garlock and Edda treated."

That's what I suggested to Mani.

Garlock and Edda's wounds are deep.

If we keep traveling forcefully, they could die.

I needed a good rest.

In my original plans, I talked about not relying on people.

Because we don't know how far we can be enemies.

If the robbery story had already spread, we wouldn't be able to accept it.

Even if you believe me, you might try to kill us for fear of military retaliation.

But this place should take risks more than the lives of the two of us are at stake.

"... you can't keep doing this. I don't think I can get away with this."

Mani sounded so weak.

"We're not moving at a decent speed right now. There's no way I can shake off the Canvians. Over there, at least there's Zildo's" Eye Out, "isn't there? In the first place, there are other sensors, and nothing's wrong."

... What Mani says is unfortunately correct.

Initially, Celia, the average person, was carried by Garlock, and the lower-level mani was moved by me out of hand.

But now I'm carrying Garlock, and Mani, who was drawn, is carrying Edda, and Celia's hand.

I'm pretty slow, too, because of Odd's exhaustion.

It wouldn't even be the first third faster.

And on the Canvian side, there is a jild with "sight gaze".

Even with Zildo's one eye crushed, one eye is enough to explore the direction we're in.

The fight with Jildo's men also took longer than I thought.

It's not weird that the Canvians are coming after us right now.

And when that happens, you're gonna intercept the Kanvias with me and Mani who are exhausted.

Kanvya is a bastard because of her personality, but she's a powerful man who can deal with me and Edda at the same time as it's easy.

I use Curse Magic (Curse), but I specialize in White Soldier warfare using Self-Enhancing Curse Magic (Curse).

The KingsRoad type of this hand has no gaps because the specific gravity of the strength battle increases.

Besides, we have five of their men, and I'm sure that troublesome female soldier Chelsea will join us.

Though I was in a hurry to settle, I didn't expect this much damage to the five Jildo's men.

The same goes for the fact that Chelsea, the out-of-head powerful man, was there, but the exhaustion caused by the battle against Zildo was also to draw tail.

I was able to get away with it lightly when I dealt with Captain Magic's Priors, so maybe there were some aspects I was thinking sweetly about.

"Sorry, I got involved, I screwed up. I thought I could do it with you."

Garlock on my back called out.

I'm stuck in a response.

I don't care, when I could get over this lightly, I wasn't in a condition where I could give it back that lightly.

If we stay put, we're all just gonna get killed.

"... hey Dean, you... maybe you can take away the other guy's power?

"Not if we're talking about it right now."

I gave it back to Garlock.

It would be natural for Garlock to notice.

Garlock knows I stopped Fangghost (Auga) from self-regenerating.

Besides, Garlock was watching me stop Gildo's Blaze Flare and fight back with Blaze Flare.

With the help of Belzevute, he told Garlock about the operation.

But now the story...

"... I need a favor, hey. Ever since I was fighting that motherfucker, I've been thinking. We can't run away from the rest of the army."

"What...?

"My Thunderflashes, when I was a kid like you, I desperately learned to fight. It's annoying who you'll never win, isn't it? I've always admired this kind of fighting that leaves me with a chance to eat them stronger than me."

I couldn't really grasp what I was trying to say.

Still, I felt like I shouldn't be blocking it, and I was just listening to Gallock's memorabilia.

"Because of this guy, I was able to be strong enough. You've come this far. You know that, don't you? When you get to the next level, you can't just be hunting the guy down there. Challenge the guy who's stronger than himself, by putting it all out. That's all I got. I'm sure it won't get in the way."

"Mr. Garlock, no way..."

"Would you get it? My Thunderflashes. I'll stop them. In the meantime, you take Narc's daughter and run to the village."

Celia, whose hand was drawn to Mani, opened her mouth and looked up at Garlock's face.

"Stop it, Dean. I recovered a little. One last thing, I'm gonna bust your ass."

"Oh no..."

Mani stops his leg.

I couldn't just leave the manis behind and go ahead, so I stopped.

"Ma, Mani, you can't. I can't believe you went ahead at the expense of one person..."

Mani shook his head.

"... it's impossible anymore. There is no other hand. Seems like Mr. Garlock had a stomachache in the middle of an earlier battle. I'm not prepared or ready, I shouldn't have stopped you."

Garlock was bracketing his belly, I noticed when I heard.

'... so far, maybe. I thought I'd eat some more, but I'm not mad.'

Garlock was returning that when Celia called him.

That didn't give up the journey itself.

I thought it was a word that didn't suit Garlock, but I was already thinking about it.

No, Garlock's fighting spirit should have been almost empty by the time he shot his third Thunderflash before that.

If I hadn't been on the offense with Thunder Flashes at that time, the fighting would have kept me warm, and I would have been able to join the fight and make things a little better.

I was a little wondering if my powers weren't trusted, but they weren't.

I'm sure Garlock was already thinking about handing me Thunderflashes back then.

That too, use the last Thunder Flash to shake off the stray and push yourself so that Thunder Flash can't shoot any more.
