Episode 225 The Second Wall/Main Gate

"Stylish smell!!

Gagga, gagga!

I cut down all the arrows that fly towards me in the air.

I suppose you thought I'd be able to take it down with such an attack now.

Gah gah gah gah!

From behind, the logs that rolled down made a loud noise when they hit something.

"I see. That's the way it is.

When the soldiers in the back moved left and right, they saw a floor crossbow behind them.Can I call it an oversized bow?An oversized bow fixed to the pedestal, which is also a device that shoots oversized arrows.

Originally, floor crossbows weren't meant to be used by a single person...

Unlike a regular bow, arrows as thick as the pillars of the house fly at high speeds, so I can't even slash a boulder.

Besides, it seems that the surface is metallized, and even the magic of the wildfire cannot be prevented.

They're going to let it go as I land.

The demon squad is not infinite.I suppressed the people who put in the boulders and began to work out a lot of ideas.

Naturally... those who fought so far didn't feel like they were outside a mosquito net, even in the Demon Squad.

I don't know what hung in front of me and ate it, but they were the only ones who joined the Demon Warriors.

But.....

"It's a little uncomfortable.

My body is falling, and I'm about to land.

Goww!

An arrow is fired from the floor crossbow.

A rolling log-like arrow flies around my landing site.

I'll roll my body around in the air.

"Haaaaaaaaaaaa!!

Sghhhhhhh!!

With the forward momentum, swing your feet down to the oversized arrow that flew in, using the heel (heel) drop technique.

The arrow was flying almost horizontally with respect to the slope, but the trajectory was skewed towards the ground and the tip pierced the ground.

The ramp collapsed partially with a major impact, but the arrows were completely stationary.

"What the hell do you think people's lives are..."

Gah!

Running over an arrow pierced into the ground, he jumps high again as he reaches the arrow butt.

The next leap is to reach the summit they are waiting for.

Soldiers who didn't expect to be stopped by stepping on an arrow looked up at me with stunned faces.

"Ooooooo!

Zugang!

If we get this close, we can't use the floor crossbow, but if we think it could be used anywhere, we should destroy it here.

Destroy floor crossbows without arrows as soon as you land.

Fragments of the objects that made up the rattlesnakes and floor crossbows scattered around, and the Demon Squads who saw them held their weapons tightly.

"Why are you doing this?Do you know what they're doing?

…………

"You don't want to talk about it?

Those wearing white masks hold their weapons tightly and breathe.

"Then I'll have to ask.

Gah!

Kick up a portion of the floor crossbow fragments at your feet and hold them in front of you.In the meantime, I will storm towards those who were behind me.

"Kill me!!

We have already slaughtered nearly two hundred people.Just because the quality improved slightly, I couldn't lose to about twenty soldiers, and it settled immediately.

The battle lasted two or three times, and finally arrived near the second wall.

"Shit. The middle class is completely in their hands, too.

On the wall and in front of the entrance and exit, the masked Demon Squads stand.

I'm taking off the mask, but I don't know how... I can tell if I feel like killing them.

"You just said that you wanted to kill me...

The perimeter of the wall is fairly promising.

The total number of people attached to the wall is about thirty.

But it doesn't seem to be the same as the others.

"You're finally here.I'm so impatient.

I recognize a man who pulled his head out of the wall.

Ping-ping and standing red hair.Red eyes as well as hair.

She is lowering a long sheath of red and black color to her waist.

"Konya..."

I didn't know this guy was here...

Konya was a disturbing man a long time ago.

Konya came out of the house of a fairly large demon, and her swordsmanship skills were superb.

Beautiful wives were also famous for marrying and making love to each other.

It was the life of a smooth sail...

One day, when Konya returned home, her beloved wife was a wretched wreck.

When he went shopping in the city, he was attacked and killed by a villain...

Of course, the guards were with us, but there were many opponents and many were defenceless.It appears that the guard was found with an even more ruthless body.

Konya was naturally burned in anger.

And he went alone to the gang of villains who did it.

It seems to have been a new organization recently. Although the number of members was small, there were 60 people in all, and there were many people who were confident in their arms...

Konya destroyed the organization alone, and overnight.

I brought my foot to the scene, but the scene was terrible.

Most of the bodies were carved in such a way that the original figure was unknown, that it was impossible to tell which part was which.

Even those who were accustomed to the scene couldn't contain nausea enough to hang out.

I saw Konya several times before the incident when I went to the castle, and I knew his face.

I realize that he was a serious man with an idiot, and he didn't like to fight for the seat of the Four Demons or for his position in the castle.

But after the incident, Konya disappeared from the city.

It was thought that the content of the incident left room for extenuating circumstances, but no one saw him afterwards.

Rumors of Konya spread out in the alley, and people were talking to each other imagining the aftermath of Konya.

Konya, who cleared up his wife's carelessness, went into the temple and became a monk... because she was lonely and hurt herself.

But after all, no one who knew Konya after that came out, so it was one of the stories that was gradually forgotten.

I didn't know you were doing this...

The tone and appearance look the exact opposite of the old days.

"Do you still remember me?

"It was a terrible incident.

"Awful... hey.

Sure, the people I killed did terrible things to my wife.

But... no.Do you have anything to talk about now?

I was about to say something, but Konya stopped on the way.

Was there something I didn't know about that incident...?

"It doesn't matter.Four demons, Genjiro.I won't let you go from here.

"Say yes. Do you look like a man turning back?

"No. But it's not like the people down here.Even the Four Demons of Stream Stone can't pass easily.

Somehow I know.

Those who stand in front of the entrance and exit feel ready to die.

They have the same eyes as the Sasaki at the main gate.

Tingling and tight air.

"These are the people who have trained for this day for many years.Including me.

"Why are you doing this?Isn't this the same as the people who killed your wife?

"Not at all!!

Konya makes me angry.

"No, I told you, nothing has changed...

We are sure to succeed in this project.I will rebuild this island.For that reason, I don't mind dying.

Those who have such thoughts are here.

"We have to kill each other..."

"That's what it is.

"... then I'm just going down my path.

"Come on, Genjiro!

I run on a flat cobblestone with a sword in one hand and a good view.

"Let go!!

Huhuhuhuhuhuhuhuh!

Some arrows fly over the wall.

Compared to the rain of the arrows we have experienced downstairs, the number is small.

But...

"This is...."

I feel disgusted and avoid playing arrows.

Gaggggggggh!!

The flying arrows are regular arrows.I'm not using any special materials.

Yet the arrow pierces the cobble.

The power of God.

The arrows are wrapping up their powers and releasing them.

It should be more penetrating than regular arrows and difficult to cut off.

Naturally, it is a technique that requires the strength of power, but Ranka tells me that they can increase the strength of power.

Perhaps everyone is doing the procedure.

They said it wasn't like the others down there, but it seems true.

"Even if it's one person, it's the Four Demons!Never lose your mind!If you're out of your mind, you'll be killed in an instant!

They have no carelessness or fear.

Perhaps the most troublesome opponent I've ever had.

"Onion!"

A wildfire pops up next to me as I keep running.

If you spare the opponent of this strength, they will definitely kill you.

There is still a long way to go, but there is no former child when he dies.

"Summarize!

Goww!

A blue flame is entangled in the blade.

"Coming! Split the vanguard in three and pinch it in!

Konya, who looks from above, gives precise instructions and those below execute them precisely.

It also has a high degree of practice as a group.

"Haaaaaaaaa!

Zann!

Avoid approaching blades and the cobblestones will be easily slashed.

Everyone downstairs seems to be using their powers in addition to strengthening them.

"Let's cum!

Gaggin!

The man who made the gap, who was standing directly beside him, fires a blow aimed at the emergency.

We understand the strengths of the difference in the number of people and are making the most of them.

"Haaah!

Gakin '!

"Yaah!

Ginnh!

They bounce back the blades of the attackers one after the other and fight back, but the blades do not hit each other.

It is not very good for me that this situation persists.The longer it takes, the more unfavourable it is.

We need to make a breakthrough, even if it's a little tough.

Whoa! Whoa!

I come up with a few ways to make a breakthrough, but here I decide that I should use the power of Oniki and go backwards.

"Release!!

"Now!

An arrow is fired from above the wall aiming at me when I give instructions to the Oni Fire.

They've read about this situation and they've been targeted.

Goww!!

Shit!

By the fire, the enemy soldiers in front are wrapped in flames, but I can't avoid a flying arrow and stick it in my left shoulder mouth.

Gu!

Eyebrows at the pain running to your left shoulder mouth.

"Gwaaaaaa!"

"Gyaaaaaa!"

More than half of the people in front of me are dying in flames.

Some of them aggressively relieved the heat of flames with their divine powers, but the skin (hifu) of their faces and hands and feet was burned (just) and turned bright red.

"I didn't expect more than half of them to be killed in a single blow... but the boulder is the Four Demons..."

Including those who are on the wall, the rest are fourteen.

"But I hurt myself.Not bad, guys. Let's go!

As Konya jumps off the wall, so do the men with bows.

"Chi... guh!

Zulu!

The arrow stuck in the left shoulder mouth was forcibly pulled out and thrown to the ground.

There is tingling and pain and bleeding.It's a dangerous wound to leave behind.

"Wisp. Please.

When I say so, the wildfire approaches and touches the wound.

Juwwwww!

"Nh!!!

I have pain like cold sweat, but I don't know how to handle it.

"In this situation, can we retreat until the bleeding stops?Sure enough, they say it's the strongest thing on this island.

"There's a reason I can't die.

"... Genjiro. Are you really satisfied with the current situation on this island?

"... what do you mean?

"... you don't know what happened to my wife, do you?

"Truth...?

It seems that there is something behind that incident that I do not know about.

"Behind that incident... the people who lived here were involved.

Konya brings her eyes to the surrounding buildings.These are the people who work for the castle.

"... you mean, the people up there were pulling the thread behind them?

"Exactly.

"Don't be silly.There will be no reason to attack Konya's wife.

"... how much do you know about the politics (festivals) I was involved in when that incident happened?

"Konya was involved… certainly in the new policy.

Was it about the distribution of power... "

"That's right. If there was too much bias in the strength assigned to each family, the possibility of rebellion would increase, and policies aimed at uniformity were being pursued.

I was against the policy.

If you do that, there will be many people who are lost in the street, and above all, I thought that if you forcibly suppress it with a policy from above, it would increase the likelihood of rebellion.

"... I see.In fact, the policy was frustrated.

"No. It wasn't a setback, it was a setback from the gods.

…………

God... it must be crap.In other words, it has enough power to manipulate policy.

It's a pretty deep story... maybe.

"No, that's a good story for now.

More importantly, because of the rebellion between me and some of them, the policy didn't go well, and you didn't like it... "

"To get rid of you in the opposition?That's too much to think about.You won't do as much as you want.

The wife was targeted by a direct crushing of Konya, the leader of the opposition, and the suspicion turned against her.To avoid that, I guess...

"No. Definitely.

The group I destroyed.I asked those guys.

"It would be a lie to escape death.I can't trust what they say.Even you can see that.

"Yes, I certainly couldn't take their word for it.

That's why, thanks to the gods, I heard the truth directly from the people up there.

"Did you hear it directly...?Could it be... "

After a while after the Konya incident, the policy was frustrated.The reason for this is that the leader of the prophets suddenly disappeared one day.

There was no sign of a struggle, and all of a sudden he disappeared.

Though speculation jumped, after all, nothing was found and the incident entered the labyrinth.

Initially suspected of being one of the dog monkeys, Konya disappeared and was considered irrelevant because no one had seen him.

"That man told me everything.Just for that, he killed his innocent wife in ruthlessness.

At the time, I thought I'd be torn apart by anger, and I tried to go to the same place as my wife many times.

But every time, I remember my wife's remains.

Don't look so careless..... "

In politics, we Shiki, who are basically not involved, are not familiar with the so-called (so-called) back side.

Still, I understand that politics cannot be advanced by just doing beautiful things.

For example, an attacking demon gang, which is a pile of villains.

It would be the easiest example of them surviving without being crushed.

If we're going to crush them, we need them because they're supposed to be easy to crush.

The city itself has a front and a back.Even if you just set the table, you can't turn it well.We also need those who work behind the scenes.

Naturally, if your superiors show up and get involved in the back, they will come from various places, so I can't do anything at all.

So we teamed up with the people behind us.

The important thing here is not to create people who work on the back side, but to create an environment where you can control the back side.

I know that the relationship between the front and the back is true.

But it was something more malicious than that that that fell on Konya.

It is not impossible for Konya to hold a grudge.

"Hey, Genjiro. Take our hand.

"What...?

"Four demons, including Genjiro, are isolated from politics... right?

You don't have the back.I mean, it's not like those bastards.

We will change this island.Big.

In a place like that where that never happens again.

All the people in the city are scum who just want to get mad, but all the people ahead of them, big and small, have that kind of feeling.

Listen to me, if you can feel anything, take my hand.

If Shiki is going to be one of us, there's nothing more comfortable about it.

That's how Konya points her hand at me.

"Are you sure you want me to take that hand?

It's not like I can't understand Konya's feelings...

I think Konya's wife would have been careless.

If I... Leica, if someone killed my wife, I can't forgive the people who did it or the people who instructed it.

Maybe I was acting the same way.He may have shaken down his sword in anger.

When I think about it, I can't strongly blame Konya for what she did... the part where there is room for circumstance and discretion, I still have something to think about.

But.....

I guess not... I don't think so.

Involving people in the city and taking so many lives... that's no good.

"The way you do it will be too bad.This idiot...

People in innocent cities are still taking their lives.

That's just like the people who killed your wife.

"No!!

Konya gives it back to me in a strong tone.

"To make sure that doesn't happen again, we need a shock that really flips this island over.

I have no choice but to make some sacrifices... "

"... if your wife sacrifices herself and says there's nothing you can do about it, will you be convinced?

……………

"You know the truth, don't you?They say what they're doing is wrong.

"I wasn't wrong!!I... made a mistake... "

Konya, perhaps, really knows somewhere in her mind.I think I'm wrong.But... maybe it's coming to a point where I can't pull back anymore.

I don't suppose he's capable of pulling back here...
