Transported to a hyper-realistic RPG.
Episode 223 The Battle of Yura
The sky was already getting dark, so I borrowed a light from a nearby house to illuminate the map.
Then Atashi puts his index finger on a part of the spreading map and starts talking.
"This is where they are right now...
From the Mansion, through here... through here... "
Share information while explaining what's going on.
"In other words, about a third of the northern district would have been suppressed.
"Still... a third..."
"No, it's not. I've already got a third of it under control.
It was thanks to everyone that we were able to suppress it so quickly in the absence of our master.
"That's right...Yeah, that's right!
Everyone smiles a little at my words.
If you lose your temper here, everyone will lose their temper until you control the other two thirds.
"So, from here on out, I don't think there are any more people left in the city.
Soon, no one could hear screams from the surroundings, and the sound of the sword became fairly negligible.
"Of course, I think there are people who have escaped late and are hiding, so I will continue to search and suppress them, but I am thinking of expanding and suppressing them.
"Are you okay...?
The more you spread, the slower the backup will be.Looks like you're worried about that.
"From what I've seen, I think it's okay.Everyone is getting used to fighting, and the opponent is not that strong.
"When that happens... we'll each give instructions and go around the rest of the place... right?
"Yeah, that's why I called you here.One team of five, centered on the people here.Then we split up into three teams.
With this, we will expand and suppress it widely.I don't know.
"... that's right.I think that's good.
"I agree. But if you meet a dangerous opponent or get into a dangerous situation, retreat immediately and return to the Mansion.I think it is better to attach this condition.
"That's right... I think we're going to have a child who can't do it, so let's make sure everybody does.
"It would be better to have a system that can be changed regularly.
"Well... you can't keep fighting like this.
I'm glad I talked to everyone.Suggestions that don't come out by themselves come out one after another.
Then we discussed it for a few minutes and decided on a liaison, apart from the team to fight.
Then, after a short break, the athletes shared the decision with everyone and moved on to action.
At everyone's request, Atashi was appointed general manager and helper when something happened.
So Atashi was walking around the city with a few people to return to Lanka-sama's mansion.
"... what...?
Moreover, Atashi found a shadow of concern.
"That's..."
Behind the scenes I've seen somewhere.It seems that Lanka and I went out several times to buy medicine...
"But... there's nothing ahead, and it's not connected to the outside..."
The pharmacy owner is heading east.Besides... it's too suspicious.
"I'm sorry, you two, come on!
"What?! Hey?!Yura?!
Ah, already! Follow Yura!I'll take care of this!
"Ha, yes!
Atashi just said that and ran away.
Of course, the moderator is important, but I don't think we should leave the owner of the pharmacy alone.
The two of you arrived at the runaway claw, but they don't seem to know what it is.Stay close to the pharmacy owner and explain the situation to them.
"A pharmacy in the East End?
"Don't you think it's funny that you're sneaking around like this?
"That's weird... what are you doing?
"I can't cut it because it's suspicious, and I'll see what I'm doing before I decide.
"But if you keep going, you'll go into the East End.
"That's right...."
Thinking about what to do, another figure appears in front of the pharmacy owner.
A man wearing a white mask.Because I have long blue hair like a woman, I thought it was a woman for a moment, but because the skeleton is different between a man and a woman, I immediately realize that it is a man.
But, okay, it's good, but this could be a pretty dangerous situation.
This man in the mask. Probably... pretty strong.
Whether or not you can beat them... the two of you beside them must be heavy.If we stay in combat, there is a possibility of death.
"... they're a little apart.
"Eh...?
I was surprised at the words of Atashi, but when I saw his serious face, they pulled me honestly.
At least now we can protect their lives.
The two people standing up normally.There is no doubt that the owner of the pharmacy is on the other side anymore.
However, if we can hear what we're talking about rather than leaving now, we may be able to get information that can contribute significantly to the suppression of the city.
Atashi thought so and slowly approached them.
A small voice who didn't know what to say.
However, as you get closer, the words gradually become clearer.
I see. All four demons headed for the castle.
"Yes, it looks like the main gate and the lateral gate have already been breached.
The owner of the pharmacy looks good, and the man in the white mask looks great.
Then the Sasaki family were killed too.
"Yes, leave a few people behind and be destroyed.
The Sasaki family?! Sasaki family... that Sasaki family that went far away...?
My main name is Souta.
When I arrived at Lanka and entered the castle, I looked at him several times.While I was living in the distance, I looked up at the castle and made a report.
It wasn't a very friendly opponent, but I had the impression that he was a very kind person when he called someone like me.
I was a little scared, but when I saw you talking to Lanka-sama, I shouldn't have been shy enough to help you with something like this.
"Shit. They said they knew Genjiro's abilities, so I gave him the front gate, but they were useless.
In this case, there was no need to take the trouble to slip into it.
"Certainly, one of the young people over there married a wife-eyed witch, right?
"That's right. I summoned her here with a promise not to touch her.
I didn't expect it to break through so easily.
So... the Sasaki family is involved to protect her...?
It's not just a threat!
"If we get through both, it's time to move on to the next phase.
"Yes, gather the people who spread across the city and enter the castle."
Tap...
"Who were you!?
Shit... I listened, and the rubble at my feet made a noise.
"Come out!
…………
And Atashi came out of the shadow, as he said, and went forth before the two men.
"... from Lanka.I didn't know you were listening.
"Hih?!
A masked man stares at the owner of the pharmacy with green eyes.
"But I'm sorry!
"... well. Either way, Lanka's apprentice would have killed them all.It doesn't matter if you kill him.
"You guys. You're going to run into the castle from here.
"Did you hear that much?That's a shame. It is not possible to convey it to someone.
A man in a mask who pulls out his sword and slurry.
The width of the blade is extremely narrow and elongated than a regular blade.
As far as I know, there is only one person who uses such a sword.
Nikka.
That's the man's name.
The man that Lanka caught once upon a time.
A very well-dressed man, famous among demons for his beauty.
It seems that he had a strong self-esteem and was reaching out to a variety of women because he had been having sex with him since he was a little girl.
And he tried to reach out to the person he shouldn't touch the most.
Yes, I tried to reach out to my master.
The master was blind, and there were times when he was looked down on as a demon, but as a woman, he was beautiful and elegant in his work, and there were not many people who wanted to marry him.
Since it became a Four Demons, it has been completely interrupted.I closed my mouth because it would be rude to say that I wanted to marry someone who had become higher than me.
But one day, Nikaku came to Master and said:
"I'll make you my wife!Happy! "
Atashi was there, so I was quite impressed at this time.
I was so rude that I wondered if it was a play or something.
Certainly, the face was ready, and the woman looked happy, but as far as I'm concerned, I don't have it.It was just a word.
And Master Nikaku said a word to him.
"I've never seen a man like you.
Thank you, so please go home.
Let me show you how to handle it as an adult and say what I have to say.He was my usual master.
"You think I'm a mess?!You! "
"I can't see.It has nothing to do with me, such as the ugliness of your face.
I see the inside of people.You are more careless than anyone in that respect.
No matter who the opponent was, the master was still alive from that time.
"If I were to marry you, I'd marry the devil a million times better.I don't want such a struggle, so please take it back.
Master stretches his spine and speaks.
Was it an unexpected answer, or was it an odd smile?
If this is the kind of story that's common in the city, a man would change his mind... but the reality isn't that sweet.
Although he returned that day, Nikaku came regularly and was driven back by his master.
Besides, instead of changing his mind, he began to get angry at being pushed back many times.
Such a day.
"You! What am I so fussy about!?
I finally got rid of Nikaku's endurance bag.
"If you insist... everything.That's right. "
The words of a merciless master.
Nikak listened to it and tried to say something back, but looked back and left the Mansion.
"... Master. Were you sure?
Just because the opponent is depressed, it seems to have oiled the upside down place.Nikaku, angry enough to shake his hands with a trap, doesn't know what to do next.
"Yeah, that's good.It was on purpose.
"Eh...?
What Master told me from there....
Because Nikaku has such a character, it seems that some of the women who approached him refused in the same way as the master.
However, strangely enough, the women who refused Nikaku's invitation went missing after a while.
"... you didn't catch anyone?
"We didn't have any evidence, so if they catch us, we'll cut through the syllables.
"So, Master became a decoy...
Master. I don't think Master will lose, but Master is also a woman.Please don't be too indifferent.
"Fufufu, thank you.
"Ah! I'm so... sorry!
"No, that's a very good place for you.
Regardless, as Master read, Nikaku showed his nature.
When Master and Atashi left the Mansion for their own use.
Nikaku and several men attacked me.
Nikaku's weapon is a slender, long sword that he rarely sees.
"If it doesn't belong to me, I don't need it anymore.No, I don't think so.
Doss, black emotions were overflowing from Nikaku.
I'm not a master, but I know that much.
"You're a tedious creator.
"You... don't die!
Nikaku, who attacked with that feeling, was severely wounded on his face by the master's hand, and was held captive.
The investigation found the bodies of the missing women and expelled them from the city.
Master was begging for the death penalty, but unfortunately, it was not, and it became a punishment to live in remorse.
"Nikaku...."
"... hmm? Do you know who I am?
Atashi was just an attendant beside his master.This man can't remember.
I don't want you to remember, but...
However, my body is getting bigger than when I fought my master.
Perhaps after being captured by his master, he continued to train himself.I think losing to a woman was an unacceptable humiliation to him, who was a self-esteem chunk.
Whatever the motive, it's definitely stronger than it was then.
"If you look at it carefully, it's a pretty girl.Why don't you be my wife?
This man. Nothing has changed.It's still trivial.
"As usual... it's a trifle.
"... you..."
"I can't see the inside as much as my master, but I know that much.
Atashi holds the sword in his hand.
Nikaku said he couldn't tell the others about the earlier story, but at least the two people behind saw the pharmacy owner holding hands with the Demons.
One should already be running to let everyone know.
And if Atashi can beat this man, we can deal with it without sending the City Demon Squads to the castle.
I don't know if I can win, but I can't lose.
Well, that's good. I don't know where he is, but first you're in front of Ranka.
Apparently, Master is doing well.Thank you for providing me with all the information.
"You're going to die.
Huh!!
"Huh?!
Kim!
Much faster than expected.
From the elongated sword, I thought it was a genre with a prickly attack as the main thing, but I was expecting it, so I finally played it.
"Oh, that's not good.
"I can afford this much.
Do not make him feel impatient.If you give the opponent room, they will push you in.
……………
………………
"Haah!
Atashi moves first and fires a blow to the arm.I don't want to take it down.The only aim is to lure the opponent into an attack.
Shh!
Nikaku thinly shortened the air out of his mouth.At the same time, the arm holding the sword repeatedly backwards and forwards.
Kick-ass!
It is good to invite an attack, but the stabbing attack is fast, and it is difficult to get it out of tangles.
Kh!
"Shh! Shh!
Kick-ass!
As it is, it will eventually be pushed out.
"Haaah!
Gaki!
Rotate the blade tip of the blade and play the elongated blade hard.
However, Nikaku immediately recovers without losing his posture.
I don't want to admit it, but Nikaku is strong.
Mutual... no. Maybe Nikaku is slightly more powerful.Besides, it is too incompatible with the sword.
A quick attack on a dot is too much trouble with a sword that requires a lot of movement.
When this happens... I think it's finally time for Atashi to fight with all his might and take it to the fight...
If this were the case, I should have brought the sickle.
If Nil and the sickle and the shield we've been practicing with had a chance...
No, I can't help it if I want what's missing.We have to stop this man now.
"Haaah!
Ginnh!
"Haah!
Kick-ass!
I shook Nikaku's sword several times, but a simple attack would mean nothing.
If we don't attack them on top of their thoughts... but I wonder if they can do that...
It was when I became anxious for a moment.
Fuck!
Unpleasant sounds and severe pain on the left arm.
"Nh!!
Jump backwards aggressively.
I was distracted.
Nikaku's neck pierced his arms as if he had been seen worried for a moment.
There is blood spilling out of my left arm and I feel calm and hot.
"What a pity. I was aiming for the inside a little bit more.
Buzz!
When Nikaku waves his elongated sword, his blood flies to the ground.
It's okay... I moved my body and protected my bones and muscles before they penetrated.
There is bleeding, but the wound should not be as bad as it looks.
Still... I'm really stupid.
I can't believe I got hurt by this.
I have not had confidence in myself for a long time.
I couldn't fail to practice because I wasn't confident.
If you fail, they'll leave you all at once.
The Master was able to see through it, and I was warned several times, but it wasn't easy to fix.
"Phew......"
Exhale loudly.
But that's not true.I talked to Nil that night and he told me it wasn't.
Fight yourself.Everyone has anxiety.
Keep fighting it, keep winning.That is the path to the Four Ones.I've just been taught that.
Boom!
Atashi holds his sword with his remaining right arm.If you wrap it around your arm, you won't be able to hold it.If there's nothing you can't hold, there's nothing you can't fight.
Are you going to fight with that arm?Can I still be your wife now?
"My master told me that too, right?I'd rather be the wife-in-law of a devil than be your wife.
"... shit. If Master is Master, Apprentice is also Apprentice.
Then I'll let him die.
Left arm injury. Weapon compatibility, if there are many things, but you can't even jump them out, the Four Demons are on top of the clouds.
But Atashi promised Nir and Master.She said she'd get stronger.
"Nil, you can do it.
"Of course! Yura can do it!
I think I heard Nil's voice when he was supposed to be gone.
Nil is truly a best friend to help me, even if I'm not here.
Shh!
Sharp thrust. I can't use my left arm right now, but I can't stop attacking you.
Then it doesn't matter what kind of attack it is, just keep attacking without gaps.
Boom, boom!
Atashi swings his sword as if it were a curve and rotates his body.
Yes. Master showed me the swordsmanship, and the waves turned upside down.I'm going to imitate that...
I know I'm doing it myself, but I haven't been able to reproduce my swordsmanship that well.But that's all I have right now.
Master told me that this turbulence wave can be manipulated freely with one hand and only the fingertips if you can manipulate the divine power well.
Atashi can't handle his powers that well, but he can manage to swing his sword.In this case, since the sword is always attacking, it has nothing to do with avoiding or holding back.
