The God Slaying Hero and the Seven Covenants

Lesson 15: The vessel of God 2

When the swinging giant arm was slapped to the ground, he was struck by the illusion as if an earthquake had occurred. Even though it hasn't hit me, the shock upsets my balance and delays the timing of waving the Divine Sword (Ermenhilde) by a beat.

The blade is inhibited by the rigid bristles of giant monkeys (apes) and does not even reach the meat because of the disfigurement.

Did you feel a slight pain? The giant monkey (Ape), whose arm was slapped with a sword, pulled his arm, opened his mouth wide and raised a growl to intimidate me.

But. The moment I stomped low on my hips for intimidation, an arrow slammed between my eyebrows as if I had targeted that moment. Arrows pierced deep enough not to be tough skin of giant monkeys (apes) reach the brain, and giant monkeys (apes) peel off their white eyes and fall into the frontal fold.

I thought there were two left - but the giant monkeys (apes) who were safe escaped with their crawling bodies when their mates could do it.

Mululu lowered his hips in an attempt to follow it, but controlled it by hand. Why, I look up with my eyes raised by the question.

"You don't have to kill me more than you have to."

"... ok"

That's how I turn back to the fellow who shot the arrow earlier. Fayrona was looking at her bow just because she couldn't believe it was herself she had shot earlier.

It's not the wooden bow I've had since the first time I met him that I'm held in that hand.

No, it's certainly the same wooden bow, but it's a luxurious bow, with fine decorations and feels like I have special powers even without magic.

It is a divine bow made from branches of the world tree and reinforced with the magic of the Spirit God (Zeneria), used by the Elf leader (Delwin).

A weapon I'm used to seeing, but I laugh bitterly at the way it's used by anyone but Delwin, and I walk over to Faerona.

"How about a new bow?"

"I'm not used to it, that's probably the exact expression."

He seems confused, too.

A weapon capable of hurting God. If they suddenly give it to me and tell me to use it for a while.

A gift from Zeneria. A sign of God's recognition. Even an elf who lives a long time should be the first such experience.

Such a funny and laughing Fayrona, who reacts precious (rarely) to surprise and bewilderment, sometime got smacked in the elbow by Ami, who was coming next door.

"But that's unusual. I can't believe Mr. Delwin lent me his bow."

"Hey."

Neither was the sword that lay on his hips, a long sword of Spirit Silver (Mithril), protected by Zeneria.

Not just Delwin, but for the beasts and subhumans, a weapon given to them by the Spirit God (Zeneria) is more important than life. The fact that you lent it to me means that you're worried about us.

Graania was also trying to lend her own protective gear to Muru, but it was too different in size. And Mululu had refused to like the smell of his father.

I saw my face at that time, but I don't know when I'll be told the same thing, so it's also true that I couldn't honestly laugh. Tomorrow is our day. If Ami or Knight told me the same thing about Graania, it would seriously break my heart.

Anastasia was laughing. He wants the middle-aged man to have some more consideration. A man reacts hypersensitively when it comes to his daughter.

"What's wrong?

Thinking silly, I was worried by Miss Francesca, who was backing down to protect Solnea. Behind that, Solnea is still looking at me with quiet eyes that don't transfer her emotions.

Makes me feel like I've done something wrong to that gaze, and I flatter my shoulders if it's nothing.

"No, I was just trying to figure out what to do."

Yes Tsunami (lying) and waved the Divine Sword (Ermenhilde). The opening of the constraint was incomplete, and his partner, who was only silver filled, became the magical light of emerald and misty.

As a result, the giant monkeys (apes) reached the western realm where they lived and turned their gaze to it.

Again, those eyes congested red and also felt more ferocious as if they were rabies or something. That's partly because when this neighborhood collapsed, the other two that followed escaped. An unusual unity and two normal bodies. Even though it is the same demon, the anomaly stands out because of visible differences.

"Hmm."

It was Kotaro who murmured and showed up. Where were you going when you said to protect Solnea?

In its hands were apple-like fruits, not uncommon in the Elflame continent. I notice that there are signs of two bites.

"So, have you noticed anything, Lord Wizard?

When he speaks so sarcastically, Kotaro coughs up and hides the fruit behind his back. It's too late because I've already noticed.

"After all, the numbers don't seem that high. There won't be a dozen of them."

"On what grounds?

"If there were more, there'd be other monsters biting besides giant monkeys."

I nod to agree to Kotaro's discussion and look at Ami. Even from Ami, there is no denial of opinion. If there are a large number of vampires (vampires), it is a strange story that they are not quite powerful demons like giant monkeys (apes), but more easily found and numerous goblins and oaks are not bitten. Expanding forces is a number in one or two.

No matter how many less intelligent vampires (vampires) you must understand that. And not doing so would also explain the low number of vampires (vampires). Although it can be controlled by sending fluid to the person who bit it, vampire fluid - in this case blood - is finite. If you let them out too much, they'll bleed to death. Well, not that many stupid vampires (vampires).

It's only a reflection from the information we have now.

However, the fact that the number is not so high shouldn't be far off the answer.

"If they bite, it's a hassle, so me and Kotaro will take the lead. Ami and Fayrona, cover me."

I didn't put it into words, but Miss Francesca and Mululu ask you to protect Solnea.

Say, I'll walk in the woods again. Depressed (uh-huh), lush greenery, and temperatures warm enough to make you sweat even though the season is winter.

Not yet used to it, Miss Francesca and Feirona exhale walking in the woods for a while and walk slightly slower. A bug flew in my ear as I slowed down my walk to fit it.

Knock it off and shut it up.

"Kotaro. Don't you have the magic of insect repellent or something?

"Hehe. Leave it to me."

When I stretched my chest greatly, I felt that the ambience had changed slightly...

Now, is insect repellent okay?

"When the range and the koutaroo are involved, I only have a feeling something weird is going to happen."

Even a frightened voice leaks from Ermenhilde. Well, I don't feel that way either.

"Hey."

But after walking for a while, the bugs stopped by again. Hit that bug with your hands again.

"Is that it? I used the smelly magic that bugs hate."

Kotaro speaks up wonderfully, beating bugs just like me.

I mean, what's that nasty magic? Hear the words, put your clothes sleeves against your nose and try to smell them. I don't smell unusual, but I don't feel that it smells a little strange after hearing the story earlier.

"What are you doing"

And I was stunned by Ami, who was walking behind us both.

"No, the bug."

"A lot."

"... you're close, both of you"

So, I guess. How come me and Kotaro have a bunch of bugs, but Ami and Faerona... maybe not even the Francesca ladies walking at the rear of the line?

"Bugs have the habit of gathering in the smell."

"Really?

Kotaro raised his voice to his surprise. When I glance softly at you for not knowing that, my gaze drifts away with a loving laugh.

"Body temperature...... it also gathers in heat, but the temperature in the Elflame continent is not so different from that of a person, so I thought maybe it smelled"

"... troublesome"

Squeeze, sigh. And slap the bug in my ear again.

Speaking of which, I've always had a hard time with worms like this. Is it because you are worried about the same thing as before that you feel frightened rather than nostalgia?

Not growing at all, he also said.

"Isn't it counterproductive"

"Humans, we learn a lot from failure."

"Don't sound great."

When I gently poked Kotaro's head as he walked next door, the atmosphere around him changed slightly again...

"I couldn't believe it, I tried to put the smell back"

"Is it body odor after..."

I guess I just said what I thought I would do from Ami... but I want you to understand that Kotaro is about the age I care about body odor anyway.

It reminds me of Graania before I left the village, a small sigh. When I get home, I swear to my heart I'll have a drink or a candle with him.

Vampires (vampires) are blood-sucking ghosts, as their name suggests, but unlike little ghosts (goblins) and unicorns (orgasms), they have unique properties. One of them is that it's nocturnal.

Look at you, if you have any knowledge of our world, I know. Vampires (vampires) are not beautifully shaped demons seen in movies or cartoons, but are classified as alien to one another. A bat.

A man-shaped bat, with hands and feet and wings. That's what vampires look like.

And you can't act in the same bright spot as a bat, and you have weak eyesight. Determine enemy allies by sound, chew and breathe blood.

So it's hard to spot a vampire (a vampire) even as you walk in the sun this way, but you can predict what kind of place you're in.

Dark places. Deep woods so deep that caves, caves, or even sunlight cannot be reached.

Giant monkeys (apes), on the contrary, are monsters who spend all their time in the sun with sunbathing, so when a vampire (vampire) seems to be near that sanctuary, some come to mind immediately.

Walk away looking for the place from close proximity.

Don't go far, Kotaro, who has spent some time here on the Elflame continent lately, and Faerona, who is familiar with the woods, Mululu with land exploration.

In that way, a vampire (vampire) could be quickly spotted in the second place.

Sole is asleep hanging from a tree. Vampires (vampires) are nocturnal... they move out of the evening when the sun sets.

"Is that...?

Faerona opens her mouth as she looks up over her head. I've never seen a vampire before, so is that the right thing to do? In the same way Miss Francesca and Mululu look up and solidify at the creatures hanging upside down against the high tree branches.

Bats resting on cave ceilings, which I used to watch on TV footage etc. That's what made us big. With that in mind, it is certainly a surprising sight. When I first saw it, it was already... more disgusting than scary. What's more, ordinary vampires (vampires) flock in tens or hundreds. It is also the same habit as a bat.

But there are only two of them on the tree. Well, the sight of two large human bats hanging side by side on tree branches is also horror inside.

Folding his wings also looked like he was turning the kid he used to make upside down.

"Feirona"

"... okay?

I understand what I'm trying to say. Faerona asks. When I nodded and responded to the words, I turned the arrow from Delwin to the divine bow I had deposited for the sleeping vampire (vampire) - squeezed the string.

Ki, and. The sound of pulling strings reaches your ears. Vampires (vampires) do not respond to that sound, which also sounds like a beautiful tone. It's a sound-sensitive demon, but I guess I'm also less alert during my sleeping days.

Set your aim - release.

The arrow was released with the sound of tearing air and sucked instantly into the head of a vampire (vampire). Precision as if it were a magic trick inside.

Vampires (vampires) with arrows stabbed in the head are powerless - they remain hanging on tree branches. Apparently, the toenails feed into the tree branches and they don't leave. So, the other vampire (vampire) says his compatriot was killed next door, but he doesn't react.

"Another shot. Now drop me down."

"It's hard to say."

"You can do it, can't you?

"Huh."

When I place my order, I stare at the arrow again with a grin on my mouth. It was the two arrows that were released.

The first arrow pierces the torso of each folded wing, and the pain causes a vampire (vampire) to wake up. But the wings don't fly because they're stitched to the torso with arrows. Another arrow pierced its head as it was rampaging in the air, surprisingly taking its feet off a tree branch.

Stay desperate and fall to the ground.

"Brilliant."

"- Good bow. I don't feel like taking it off."

Faerona says as she holds her bow to her back sheath. It is a costume that looks like anything else.

Set aside for a beat, Miss Francesca and Mululu raised their praises, though small.

Well.

"Solnea, is that what you were talking about?

Go to the fallen vampire (vampire) and speak to Solnea who cared about this one.

I'm not out of breath when I say I've walked this far, should the boulder be called the 'Devil's Vessel'? She's a beautiful woman on the outside, but her strength is better than that of a person... maybe more than Miss Francesca.

"No."

"It's not just a vampire, is it?"

"I hear so."

I look up over my head, but I guess it's not the same with me dead hanging in a tree. I'm the same “normal” vampire.

"Well, it looks like there are others out there, so let's go find them."

When I heard that, I walked in the woods again.
