Yomigaeri no Maou

Episode 51, Preliminary Game II, Part VIII

I wonder how many times in my life my family (clan) vice chief has had the opportunity to see the sight of a little, luxurious girl grabbing her face and being thrown straight into the universe.

With that in mind, Himeros looked at the way it played on the other side of the glass with his mouth slightly open, making sure that Illis held Agnos tight before shouting out loud to Gran.

"Oh, who the hell is that girl named Illis!? It wouldn't be possible!?

Yes, it can't be.

Speaking of what to say that with, I have to say right now, that's what you say with all the sights you've been shown.

First of all, it was weird from the first shot.

As a result of Agnos giving way to Iris, the weight of that blow that struck her was enough to convey even just watching from afar.

As far as the girl who says Illis is concerned, it is not very conceivable, but not conceivable, that there is so much power in its flesh that I can say that I was surprised through the unexpected.

Of course, no physical enhancement magic or physical enhancement by magic circulation has increased its physical strength, but in the first place it is both like multiplication, which activates the original physical ability as the basis, and given that, that velocity, and power, of Illis was something that can be called an anomaly.

However, I could still understand.

Because if you think that Illis has a very high magic power and used it to strengthen that luxurious body with one eye and show that power, you don't know.

The more mages in the higher dimensions, the more they can amplify their small powers into something big.

If we are told that Illis also, in fact, has acquired the speed and power to overwhelm Agnos, such a magician and that is why he is a skilled swordsman, we can be convinced.

It's just that not so was the horrible thing about that girl who says Illis.

What is scary is that despite all the speed, all the power shown, from the eyes of Himeros, the body of Englis did not have any magical enhancement (...).

Even though Agnos was firmly subject to physical strengthening by magic circulation, it is.

That means nothing more than to say that Iris overwhelmed Agnos' enhanced physical abilities with only vegan physical abilities.

The physical abilities of a skilled advanced adventurer are such that it is said to crush rocks and break steel, there can be no such person as can demonstrate such abilities in the flesh of vegetables.

Yet the sight just played out in front of Himeros was unlikely to the extent that it clearly overshadowed such common sense and asked itself again and again whether what the hell I had just seen was true.

Gran laughs and says to Himeros in such a vortex of confusion.

"Bet is my win."

It's something I would say that with a angrily clear face, so I was about to stick with Himelos, but if I were in the opposite position, I'd rather think about Himelos having this look on my face, and I'd stop doing that.

Besides, I had more to ask now than that.

It's about what the hell that girl called Illis is.

"I don't mind betting... I don't have two words for a woman! I'll feed all the" Explorer of the Times (Elam Kupidr) "guys until they're hungry. But, Gran. There's something I need to ask you before I do! Who the hell is that girl!

It was an atmosphere where Himeros was just stuffed.

Gran, however, unexpectedly avoided a clear response to the question.

Even though it is usually likely to be clear, it feels like I am choosing the word indecision or indecision.

"When people say who... I'm in too. You can't say anything from me. He stopped talking to me. I just haven't lied or exaggerated since the other meeting. Just make sure that's all. This isn't just Himeros. I'll tell everyone here."

Like that.

Himeros felt something that couldn't boil down to such a gran response, and asked further questions.

"Even if they say you can't say anything, you won't be convinced. That's all the arms, is it the secret of someone with a name? Am I right?

But no matter how much I asked, Gran didn't try to answer.

And I told him like I was stunned by persistent Himeros.

"I told you. I'm being shut up. This isn't just a promise. If you really want to know, ask the person. They'll decide whether to answer or not."

"Isn't that a promise?

Himeros tilted his neck for a moment at Gran's words, but thought a little to understand what it meant.

I was wondering if that's not a word of mouth stop, that is, restraint by magical contract.

That's why I understood this subtle way of putting it.

And I don't care how much more you ask than it is.

Contract magic is absolute.

If you break it, it depends on time and circumstances what penalties there are, but it won't be a mild punishment for Gran to be so repellent.

Besides, if you think about it carefully, whether you have contract magic or not, it was hard to imagine Gran breaking this hand promise.

Reflecting that he seemed to have a little blood on his head, Himelos takes a deep breath.

Then,

"... right, okay. Sorry. Excited..."

That's what I apologized for.

Because Himelos has tried to break the usual manners that say we shouldn't hear from others what they don't want to talk about in the first place.

Gran said to Himeros like that,

"I can't talk anyway, and it's the same with Yumis. And if you really want to know, just ask them. They tied me and Yumis up with contract magic, but it's a pretty loose tie. I guess you don't even want to hide anything. If you ask, maybe you'll talk to me."

Himeros tilts his neck at Gran's words.

I don't mean to hide it so much, I wonder what that means.

I was wondering if it's contract magic because I want to hide it.

After reading such a look on Himeros's face, Gran goes on to say:

"Well... there are circumstances that I can't explain well. Ask them yourself, including that."

I wasn't sure, but Himeros had to nod at it.

Then Gran turned in a different direction and continued.

"Ever... rather than that, Shui would have fought Lulu next. You, you were just like Himeros until you saw the game right now, and they tasted it, right? What are we gonna do, bet?

In the direction of Gran's gaze is the Shui-Relieve of the family (Klan) "The Clown's Library (Fossol Biblioteca)".

The detail of his glasses reminds me more of a scholar than an adventurer, but he is the truth, a magician with the strength of a finger fold in this king's capital.

That's how he keeps sweating cold after watching an earlier game.

And Shui answered Gran.

"Does that mean that... the boy who says Lulu wins or I win?

"Yes."

To the snorted Gran, Shui asks a few thoughts.

"... If you were to bet, which would you bet on? Me, or the boy who says Lulu?

And the answer I got back without getting my hair in was:

"It's settled. It's Lulu."

was.

If it's true, maybe it was a good answer to be exasperated here.

But Shui wasn't the type who didn't see reality that far.

Rather, it is enough to convince me that it still is.

Because the battle of the girl who said Illis fought earlier in front of me was not such a very but fit in the frame of a rookie.

The boy who says Lulu, who is supposed to be Shui's opponent, says he is going to be such an Iris brother.

Such a person can't be weak.

Rather, it should have been considered stronger than Illis.

It just wasn't like there was still no chance of winning.

Shui has something different to Agnos.

That means Shui is a magician and Agnos is a swordsman.

It is the magician's strength that allows him to assemble tactics that allow him to ignore what he calls his opponent's speed and simple muscle strength due to ranged attacks and defenses by junctions.

If the boy who says Lulu is his brother, it shouldn't be a mistake to think that the way he fights will also resemble his sister.

Doesn't that make it possible if you take as much distance as you can and make a saturation attack while protecting yourself so that you can counteract that Iris kind of speed and force?

I thought so.

And because he thought so, Shui thought it would be terrible to refuse Gran's application.

When the word wager appears between the chiefs of the clan, it is not only simple money that is put on there, but also pride in its strength.

Shui, as a chief, cannot pull.

So Shui told Gran.

"... then I'll bet on my victory. I swear to God, I'll beat your secret boy to pieces before he's done with his skin."

To that answer, Gran smiles, and says:

"You said... Ha, don't be extravagant for dinner tonight! I'm looking forward to it."

There is no anxiety whatsoever in Gran's voice that said so, and he seems entirely convinced of his victory.

Shui vowed to make this man look absolutely gorgeous, leaving the special gallery and heading to the athlete's lobby.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

The arena was filled with silence as if earlier cheers were lies.

At the center stands the Illis embracing Agnos.

The game closed with a decade-long feat that betrayed the expectations of the big man and said the junior adventurer would defeat the advanced adventurer.

Moreover, the battle was overwhelming, and Agnos could say that he lost almost nothing.

The audience was confused about what to call this, and they didn't say a word.

Gaya, sitting next to Lulu, opens her eyes wide and then looks at this one and says:

"Le, lulu... Illis... of Illis... that, what the fuck!? How did you win!? It didn't look like anything to me... or was Iris so strong before that!?

There seems to be a lot to ask, but what's not coming together would be no choice.

When incredible things happen in front of you, this is what happens to people.

Rusty, sitting opposite Gaya, looks more like he doesn't think anything, well, this must be it, staring at the stage with his face.

The same goes for Mi and Yuri, and for some reason Kyou isn't too surprised either.

Lulu decides to carefully answer Gaya's words one by one.

Sitting next to him, even towards the two of his people.

"If that thing in Illis means how you did Agnos in the sky, it grabbed my face and threw it out of my mind, it feels like. When they say how they won...... well, if Agnos was falling like that, I guess it was because Agnos surrendered after stabbing him in the sword that Illis was putting up. As for the strength of Illis... well, all I can say is, as you can see"

The Gayas listened slowly as they chewed one answer at a time, and once again gave a surprise look, and

"... wow... Illis, wow! I'm impressed!!

I stood up saying that and raised my admiration for Illis.

The voices of those gayas become the calling water, and the other audiences begin to send words of praise to Illis.

"You're so small! I'm gonna kick your ass!" "Agnos! You're strong too, but you look like you've had a bad time with them this time!

and so on.

I guess the audience knows that there are few voices that would hit dissatisfaction with Agnos because she doesn't have a diminishing or eight hundred personalities, but rather because she fights seriously and this is the result.

And even so, I feel surprised and sober that Illis has prevailed.

I can hear a lot of voices saying that fighting competitions are funny because there is such a huge backlash.

Her - the name of England - has now become one of the most prominent players in the competition.

Watching Illis wave such a cheer in the middle of the arena, Lulu says.

"... well done..."

I still feel somewhat like a father here, Lulu.

Instead of Bacchus, I'm eye-warming driven by a strange sense of duty to see that grow and say we have to do it.

Such a lull, Rusty told me to whisper all the time.

"This is all the excitement in Illis...... Lulu, you can expect me to attract you more than this too, right?

The look on Rusty's face when he said that is close to that when he was a kid, when he came up with a prank and let's run it together as childhood tamers.

On this occasion, only the Rustys and Iris know Lulu's right strength.

I guess I'll be looking forward to seeing the look of the audience when they show Lulu's strength without knowing anything.

Lulu understood the matter and told Rusty.

"Of course... I'm looking forward to it."

Leaving it that way, Lulu heads to the athlete's office.

I heard the childhood trainers say, "Good luck out of your back."

You can't lose, I thought.
