The God Slaying Hero and the Seven Covenants

Episode Nine: Three after the battle.

Through the black “gate," it was a high stone wall that spread on one side. Everything is shattered and cracked, but the difference is still alive.

And the gates that should be closed are distorted - the beautiful meadows that were spreading green are covered with numerous corpses.

Demons and... people.

Goblin, oak. Harpy on the Auga. Griffin and Snake Woman (Mendusa) who are not supposed to be on this continent. Numerous demons, and people, are rolling around as corpses.

Is there a smaller number of people than the number of demons because the survivors mourned their remains?

"You smell terrible."

On the wind, the smell of meadows reaches my nose. It doesn't smell blue or sober. Poisonous, black and cloudy, smells like blood.

But...

The smell I'm already used to smelling makes me breathe deeply without even flattering my face. The smell of blood. The smell of death. Feeling that smell, there's one shadow in the black “gate” I came through.

Sole, which was vain at first, gradually entails a realistic mass with reality.

What emerged was no less than a black “gate”. A woman wearing dark hair stretched up to her waist and a black coat (dress) that could be more than that. White skin stands out as paired because it is wrapped in black.

"Oh... what's wrong?

"No. Nothing."

If you look away from Utano like that, you're surprised at us coming out of the “gate," and you can see dozens of soldiers hanging this way through the distorted gate.

Well. Turn your gaze back to the black gate. Kotaro's transfer team is very similar to the Sole of the Demon God (Naifer). Can't you help but think I'm here?

The wind shakes and the blessed coat (cape) of the Wind Spirit (silf) shakes heavily. Likewise, Utano's beautiful dark hair and the hem of her coat (dress) widened.

"I'll explain."

"Oh, please"

Oh, my God, I don't like explaining to people. Explain it or I don't really like to stand in front of people, though that's a big reason.

The truth is, Utano is more used to standing in public, and I think he's better at explaining things and understanding people's psyche and emotions than I am. But for some reason, he put me first, and I was in the second position.

That was the first decision I made when I came to this world. Proof that we work hard, not the kids, but the oldest. Until now, however, Utano had taken the lead in deciding things after he had settled with the demon god (Naifer).

... Maybe you care about me. With that in mind, he is still walking to explain to the soldiers who suddenly came back to us.

I sigh as I look behind it.

- Because before words of gratitude and emotions, I usually thought that Elle scolded me here. I think about Elle before Utano worries about me... I can't help it, I feel like a wretched man, I exhale.

Unexpectedly, signs. Looking back, a new shadow swung over the black “gate".

Anticipating that the next person to come from that outfit would be Kotaro, he appeared through the “gate" with a black triangle hat on his dull colored clothes and a similarly woven black coat (cape) covering his entire body.

"Oh, just Lord Lotus."

"Sort of."

Turn your gaze toward the gates of the king's capital. There, the soldiers, who changed their blood phase and walked through the gates of the Wang capital, found out that we were the ones who showed up and appeased, tearing their faces and pointing the spearhead of the object in their hands to the ground.

And when I saw Utano talking to those soldiers, I nodded as if I was convinced.

"Well, let's just say everyone else calls it."

As usual, when his hands were spread out in a daunting manner, as if he were a stage actor, he closed his eyes so as to put up a large wooden cane and main pillar, also about his own height in his hand.

At the same time, in the ever sunny sky, if you borrow the words of a deep purple - Kotaro, a magic formation knitted with dark magic light is shaped.

There are two triangles - a double circle surrounds the perimeter of the six-mangle star (Hexagram), and the ancient letters of the elves seen in the Elflame continent colour the perimeter.

When the wind gets stronger and you hold your eyes down, you can first have a black dot in the center of the Six Lights star. As that point gradually grows larger, it grows into a large hole where nearly 100 people can pass through it at once. Just the size of a nest in the middle of a six-mounted star.

And the six stars floating in space descend to the ground, the same “gates” that we came through earlier.

"Hmm."

I did a job, Kotaro wiping the sweat off my forehead with the trick of

As always, he's a flashy guy.

After a while, one hundred people at a time emerge one shadow after another in the big hole where they seem to be able to get through.

The first ones to come through were Soichi.

"Brave Man" Soichi Tenjo.

"Virgin" Yayoi Tenjo.

"The Great Devil's Wizard" Furong Ami.

"Demon Swordsman" Masaki Kuki.

"Knight of the Goddess" Yuta Nine Seasons.

"The Avenger" Yuichiro Gangnomiya.

"Tools" Kudo Phosphorous.

"Demon Man" Scarlet Yong Knit.

"Weapon King" Takashi Ito.

And "Cook" Fujido Shu.

... Looking at it this way, I knew Fujido was still floating. Many times he was helped by his cooking, but it would still be too common for him to be a hero. Normally, I would ask for more amazing abilities if someone from another world summoned me to my favorite abilities...

With that in mind, faces such as Mr. O'Brien, Delwin, and Sue who fought together come through the black “gate” as follows. In addition, the Knights and Elflame warriors followed.

"Finally, you're done"

"Right."

Looking at the soldiers and knights we fought with as we tried to show up, Mr. O'Brien, who had come by sometime, talks to us.

This man, who is usually tough, is also bright at what time, because it is after the great task of crusading the demon gods.

When I loosened my mouth to an atmosphere that seemed to slap me on the shoulder as it was, I was slapped on the shoulder with a smile that just loosened my mouth as well. Turn your gaze to that big, heavy hand.

"Well done"

"No, thanks to you all."

Supported by a lot of people. Fight like that, and you could win.

Yes, mouth it with all your thoughts.

- This victory is not just for one. It's not just for the thirteen. That day, that time, it belonged to everyone we fought together.

Don't make a mistake, don't be proud.

I fought alongside a lot of people, sacrificed a lot of people, supported by a lot of people - and won. I protected the world.

... so.

"Thank you"

With that in his mouth, Mr. O'Brien looked strange.

With that hand that tapped my shoulder, I stroke my jawbeard, which began to mix white.

"You taught me how to fight, so I won."

…………

That was the first time I came to this world.

I taught this man how to fight, how to wave his sword and how to live in this world.

What this man taught is firmly rooted in the core of a human being named Lianshi Yamada. It is the foundation. That's what happened, so I worked hard until today. I could fight. Even if I broke my heart, I could walk with my core up and without stopping.

In another world, I survived.

"... fool. Don't say that in public."

Instead of looking at each body as it were, I said that in a small voice that was not like the usual Mr. O'Brien.

A hand stroking his jaw moved slightly upwards. Just around the corner...... maybe you're crying.

I thought so, but I also think it's wild to say it, so I pretend not to notice.

Then came the Delwins. Graania to Delwin, Sue. These are the three men in the position of chief, who bind the warriors of Elflame.

"God Killer, be in a good mood."

The first person to open his mouth was Graania. The head of the beast man, with ears and tails of the same colour as the silver hair, bows his head with an unfit euphemism, and the head of the elf and half a serpent (Merjune) also bows his head so as to be in tune with it.

The trick is sophisticated, and I don't have any complaints about the modus operandi. Maybe it's more sophisticated than me. It's more like I want to ask for teaching, but as for this one, I didn't expect to get that attitude from the people I think are my friends, so I'm going to panic the other way.

However, he felt that the atmosphere of the three was not a strict (rough) sole, but a teasing mixture, and on the contrary, he leaned his neck suspiciously.

"... what the hell, dude"

"No, I saved the world, so I thought I should have some respect for people like you."

"Are you kidding me?"

When you say that in a shuddering mix, the three of you laugh at your heels and lift your head.

I mean, he was making fun of me.

"Just kidding."

"I know."

When you sigh, three people laugh at me like that again.

- Well, if this is how you laugh at me, do you mind if I make fun of you?

Remember Elle's last wish, and I laugh, too.

"Regardless of Sue, Delwin and Graania didn't think they would say many of these jokes"

"Hey. Whatever I am, what?

"It means exactly what you say."

While it creates an atmosphere of dissatisfaction with my words, both arms are arranged to support the rich chest.

That way, it looks like Sue is trying to make fun of me with her limbs.

As I turned my gaze toward Sui's chest as I rode the tease, I had severe pain on my left leg.

"Where are you looking?

"Oh, Yuko. I didn't see him, so I thought I'd done my love to the range..."

Stepping on my left foot, Mr. Utano looks at Su - precisely Su's chest for a moment with the kind of eyes he sees even with his flesh parents' enemies, and then turns that gaze at me.

With your gaze toward the hollow as you are stepped on, the sky is bright and clear.

Not at all, it can be considered the right weather to delight in victory. The Arbenelm continent was always cloudy or rainy with thick clouds mixed with volcanic ash, so I couldn't help but dazzle with a clear ethereal.

... I hope you don't mind stepping on your feet.

"Just kidding. Don't look at the range with your goblin eyes."

I wonder what kind of eye it is, an eye that looks like a goblin. Is that it, like looking at a cockroach?

With that in mind, the weight of the leg I was stepping on disappeared.

"Kuku, you're still close."

"Hmm."

Utano bends his umbilical (navel) and shifts his gaze as he joins his arms. I wonder if it's sad, the sight is the opposite of what you see when you say you're arming under your chest just like Sue.

- The moment I thought so, that right arm flashed and hit me in the chest.

Suddenly I get stuck in my breath and cough up.

Look at me like that. The Delwins, and Mr. O'Brien, who was supposed to be out of sight for every body, laugh.

"Mr. O'Brien. As I told the gatekeeper earlier, I ran to tell the royal castle that I was back."

"Mm."

"I was wondering if the king would come this way after a while."

"Right. So..."

A flamboyant smile turns, a serious sole - I know it well, back to my face as a knight captain.

The gaze then turns to the black “gate” created by Kotaro. There are still figures of soldiers returning through the “gate”. I don't know the exact number of people who came back, but from what I've seen, is it still about half?

So many soldiers and knights that they are likely to reach the thousands are appropriately manipulating the bodies of demons that were rolling in the meadows. Mr. O'Brien walked toward you.

So, some of them. Conversely, the remains of those who were in the meadow were still in one place without being mourned. Though winter is approaching, the damage to the corpse left outside for a long time is terrible. I'm sure he'll be cremated like this.

... see it well so you don't forget what it looks like.

It's a dead life for this world. My power, the life that feeds on it.

- Don't forget, don't. I'm here at the expense of a lot of people.

"Don't look scared"

Delwin slapped me in the head like that.

Then Graania slaps him in the chest and Sue smacks him in the back. - Plus, unlike Delwin, he gets hit in the head again with a slightly stronger force.

"Not all of them, but one big battle is over, so look brighter."

"Anastasia"

That's what I said, Anastasia sitting on my shoulder.

Turning his gaze around, this child's lord, Scarlet Yong Knights, seemed to be asleep held by Night, the ghost knight of black armor.

I guess I'm tired. The journey to save the world was too harsh for a fourteen-year-old girl. I also know how relaxed you get.

"Still, the medal woman is still at Master Astraela's?

"Oh."

Next, I managed to open my mouth to the words of Anastasia in the guise of a wind that was nothing.

After that, I explained to everyone that Elle had returned to Astraela...

I was hesitant to tell the truth, and I didn't want to cloud this smile - I lied.

At least. After this, report a demon crusade, until the whole world is overflowing with smiles. Demonic and demonic threats continue, but until everyone is immersed in the joy of crusading their greatest enemies.

... Until then, I wanted to keep Elle's death down.

"Damn it. You can't just leave me alone. Maybe you can just dump me like this?

"Maybe."

Return this one to Anastasia's light mouth.

I can get rid of it.... I won't see him again, so maybe I do. Yes, with thought.

However, in this case, which one will be thrown away? Is it me or El?

If you think so...

"Just kidding. Don't be so depressed."

Anastasia loud. Because I'm sitting on my shoulder, or extra ringing in my ear and coming back from my thoughts.

Then, right in front of you, you look like everyone who's staring at this one.

In a hurry, I smile pretending to be nothing.

"Hey, when Elle dumps me, I'm shocked by the boulder."

"... what"

But the next moment I was cheeked by angry Anastasia. The tickle stands ahead of the pain.

"Did I make you worry?

"Bezu"

The Delwins look at such anastasia and break their expressions. Apparently, you misled me well.

Only Utano... he layered his right hand on my left hand.

I get gripped to tangle my fingers, but I feel that hand plump stronger than my chest squeals, and I grip it back.

"Hehe. If it's not sweet by now, Anastasia."

"That's annoying. Sue, what about me? Nothing, I don't want to be sweet. If you're not well in the range, Yui will be depressed, so I can't help it."

"I don't care if you're sweet."

……

I want you to keep your hands off your cheeky fingers silently. Even though Anastasia is only about the size of a doll, it hurts when you get stung.

My face was ridiculous like that, Delwin broke it rarely.

"Master Elmenhilde seemed depressed in his absence, but you seem a little energized"

"Thank you. The kids are here, and you can't be depressed forever."

"Let's do that."

The thing is, it's like you're exploring my insides. No, maybe he knows to some extent.

I don't think you're aware of Elle's death, but I'm depressed.

I don't think so.

When I laughed bitterly, I could see the upset spreading among the soldiers and knights.

I pointed my gaze at the soldiers, followed by the place where there was the gate of the distorted king's capital - where he must have rushed me in the form of riding a horse with a luxurious saddle, the look of King Joshua, who should have suited me a few days ago but looked much more tired than before.

You can tell by the tragedy of this meadow. Then there was a demonic raid. Plus, it's pretty massive.

Fighting also took place on the Imnesia continent as we fought the showdown on Arbenelm. Besides, without our help, in the absence of Mr. O'Brien or more than half the knights.

When he sees me, King Joshua comes down from his horse and walks over here. I hurried too and let go of Mr. Utano and headed that way, before I did, the king of man knelt down and put his hands together to pray to me.

"Heroes of the other world. I can't thank you enough for saving this world."

"King Joshua......"

"Dear goddess Astraela. And thank the heroes without limits."

As if to mimic King Joshua, the soldiers around them will join hands so that the inhabitants of the king's capital, whom the knights were watching from afar, may O'Brien… Delwin and the warriors of the Elflame continent, will also bow their knees and offer us prayers of gratitude.

It was divine, but how could you not get used to it? Kudo, Fujido, and Ito were scratching their heads like trouble.

Hero.

That's the title we were given. And what was sought.

You saved it, Range.

In his ear, Anastasia shrugged so.

No, it's not.

"I saved everyone who lives in this world."

I'm not a hero.

I wanted to be a hero.

Like Soichi and the others, I wanted the strength a hero deserved.

But I couldn't be a hero. Now, I don't think I want to be anymore.

It's uncomfortable, like a build-up of black things behind your chest, behind your belly. Disgusting.

Again, look around.

Numerous demonic and demonic bodies. And the bodies of those yet to be mourned, arranged in the meadows.

The body overlaps El. At her death, it overlaps.

Died to protect me, El.

People who died to protect the world.

... dying, no change.

And I will make the death of such a man stronger in food.

Am I a hero? - I can't kill God anymore, and I can't save the world.
