Chapter 299 – The Present Is All the Matters
“Hahaha, co on, get up! And, like, show off those boners ♡.”
The monster fox roared so loudly that the air trembled.
A monster on the level of Vasalar, who appeared in picture books.
What can I do against this thing…
“Great General, that ca out of nowhere. I was almost killed myself.”
“Hmm?”
That’s when it happened.
“Hmm? Oh~~~, Lal, I’m so glad you’re okay~! Oh~, now that I think about it, your telepathic ssage… erm~”
“…… Haa~…… it’s about Espie…”
“Ah, that’s it. Sorry sorry. So, like, how about it? Where’s the idiot brat of the Seven Heroes who, like, beat up my cute subordinates and my friend Shojovich?”
In the midst of this hellish scene, Larou’iph stepped forward with a wry smile, and Norja, noticing this, laughed heartily.
And then….
“There.”
“Hmm? Oh…”
There was a single iron sphere rolling across the plain.
The next mont, the sphere cracked…
“Tch… you monster…”
From inside, Slayer stood up with sweat running down his cheeks.
tte, not good, I must…
『Wait, child!』
“What is it?”
『I heard that the future Norja holds a position in the new governnt of the Demon Realm…』
“Hmm? Oh, that’s right. she often t with my father and mother…”
『She knows your face, does she not? In that case, the reason why you cannot show your face at this ti…』
“Ah…”
It’s like that.
Koujiro was blind, and I couldn’t help but show my face to the people of the Demon King Army who didn’t know who I was, but when it ca to Norja, naturally …
“What~? You’re not that Espie brat.”
“Yes, this person seems to be one of Espie’s companions… however, even though he is a child, his power is…”
“Hmm? Oh~, who was it… oh my gosh, that’s right! It’s that genius hunter boy that Gouda and the gang were blabbing about, like, I’m sure it was…”
“Huh!? Oh…”
Norja smiled, and Larou’iph also seed to have realized.
His true identity…
“For sure… Slayer? Was that his na?”
“…… fuh… it’s an honor to have the legendary Six Supremacy know my na.”
“Niha…… nihahahaha… houhou~, I see… makes sense. He’s got those nice eyes and, like, such a vibe. He looks way more fun than those potential pets I just blew away. But~…”
“…… Hmm…”
“I don’t like hairy brats. They’re no fun to shave ♪.”
In the next mont, Norja’s tail rose slowly…
“Huh!?”
The tail swung down at high speed towards Slayer.
“Don’t look down on , monster!”
“Oho ♪.”
Slayer reacted. Evasion. As expected, he can’t be hit so easily.
And even while dodging…
“Ironmake, 【Ultra Hyper Darkness Balmung】!”
“Nihaha, so that’s the rumored handy magic? Maybe you should change your job to blacksmith instead of Hunter.”
“Shut up, I’m going to take that head——”
He pounced on a counterattack… wait!
Such a huge weapon will certainly be effective if it hits, but the opponent is a Six Supremacy.
Attacking head-on is…
“What? Is that it~?”
“Eh!?”
In the first place, even if you dodge one tail, Norja has nine huge tails.
A second one reached out from Slayer’s blind spot, binding his tiny body and capturing him.
“D, damn…”
“Nihahahaha, what~, you’ve musta been, like, super lucky with your opponents so far… even with all your talent, once you’re outta luck, you’ll die in no ti… that’s why I hate kids… Hmm?”
“Kuh, let go! Kuuuuuuuuu!”
“Hmm, even in this situation, that’s a good eye. Maybe in twenty years… hmm?”
Oh no, Slayer.
I’m in no position to hesitate.
I have to do it.
No matter what happens to history, I can’t just abandon him here…
“Hmm~……”
“Wh, what! Staring at people so closely is…”
“Mm-hmm Mm-hmm…”
Hmm, what happened? Norja was looking at Slayer, apparently thinking about sothing.
“There was this old story… about this guy nad Shainen Genji who took a young girl and tried to mold her to fit his taste… mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm…’
“…… Huh?”
“Taming him while looking ahead to the future… Gufu ♡.”
“Wha…!?”
“Well, compared to my lifeti, humans grow up, like, so fast… it would be fun to keep an observation diary until you grow a beard and a vigorous shlong ♡.”
“Eh… d, don’t be silly… who do you think you are!”
“Oho ♡ It’s fine it’s fine! Those eyes, aah, that spirit, I wanna leave you ssed up and in tears like crazy ♡”
Ah, this is… as expected, it’s dangerous… I don’t think he’ll be killed, but he’s also in danger in a different sense.
Slayer was also horrified and pale.
“Not good, I should help… but is that okay? I’ll show my face and…”
『No other choice… huh… then again, according to reports, in this scene… Espie was… but now…』
“Hmm? Oh… I see…”
If I rember correctly, in the “true history” that Tre’ainar was referring to, “Espie fought Norja and escaped with the prisoners”.
And the Slayer of the present age is alive and well.
In other words, even if I don’t do anything, he’ll be saved, and Espie will help them… that ans… but……
“…… ah, wh, what am I supposed to do? Do I just… keep watching like this…”
『…… Hmm…』
This ti, it wasn’t like the Demon King Army soldiers I t in the forest, whose nas I don’t even know.
It’s also different from the ti with Koujiro.
Here, I will fight Norja of the Six Supremacy… that’s how much……
“Fuh~…”
Tre’ainar sighed once, but imdiately smiled at .
『Child… even if the world we are in is in the past… the present, this mont here with you and I, is all that matters. Then, in this mont, forget about the passage of ti and everything else. Just face the reason you absolutely must fight… right in front of you…』
“Tre’ainar…”
『Did I not say it in the woods where you first t Espie in this era? I suppose tis the way of history… you have no choice but to act!』
“But…”
『Besides that, no matter what sort of influence you have on the Demon King Army of this era… do not feel guilty for my sake. I am not so daintily inclined as to be perceived in such a manner by you.』
Yes, the reason why I stubbornly didn’t want to fight the Demon King Army in this world wasn’t entirely about the impact it would have on history.
If anything happens to the Demon King Army in this era because I did sothing unnecessary, I’ll indirectly put Tre’ainar at a disadvantage… stop thinking about it, Tre’ainar pushed out.
『Do not feel sorry for the Great Demon King. Do listen to the words of your master.』
“…… ah…… Kuhahaha…… that’s right…… yeah…… I get it…”
Tre’ainar was right. I an, this isn’t the kind of opponent you can deal with while distracted by other stuff.
Don’t think about it… just…… help Slayer.
How do I help?
“I’m going to beat her up!!”
『Ah, tis so! Unlike Jamdi’el, who left openings and was not trying to kill you, or the Paripi who lived an idle life… this one is still active as one of my six arms… your parents’ nesis, the Six Supremacy… and you will ‘beat her up’!!』
I got it. That is truly a Six Supremacy who is still active and fighting in the world of warfare.
I’ll do it.
In fact, I have to surpass even that.
“Okay, here I go———”
『…… Hmm? Oh, child! Wait a mont! That…』
“Hmm? …… Oh! Oh, that’s it.”
And before I gave up and showed Norja my face, Tre’ainar noticed sothing and pointed at it.
When I saw that, I couldn’t help but raise my voice.
For once, it was fortunate that the Allied Forces were stripped naked.
Thanks to this, the helms that were originally worn by the stripped soldiers were lying at my feet.
“The black helm… ah, there’s a cape too! Cool! Alright, let’s do this…”
『Wait, you need only hide your face…』
Well, I know it’s inappropriate, but I’m getting a little excited.
Now I can hide my true identity and do whatever I want.
“Nihahahaha, then… for starters, let’s make sure there’s, like, absolutely no bushes growing ♡”
“Huh!? S, stop, wha, what are you doing! I won’t allow you, to humiliate , s, stop, stop———”
“Also, what might be hiding under――――”
Ok, done!
“Waahahahahaha, waahahahahaha! Enough, Damsel Commander Norja! I will not tolerate any more atrocities!!”
“…… Hmm? What is it? This laughter…”
“…… What? Hey…… who are you?”
At that mont, my voice seed to reach them, and Norja, the Amazonesses under Norja, and Slayer all turned their eyes to at once.
The Allied soldiers and the n of Genkhan who were knocked down by Norja… were unconscious or were in a daze and not reacting much… well, okay.
“…… Who am I? Um…… The Knight in Black”
I was wearing a black helm and a black cloak…
“I… no, if there is a child in this world who sheds tears, even if they are a monster, I will not condone it! An ally of good children! I am, Ragaan-Man!!”
When Norja asked who I was, I replied.
“Ragaanman? Never heard of you…”
“Then let it be engraved on your body. The na of the one who will defeat you!”
“What?”
Yes, just like the heroes I admired when I was a kid.
The pose was perfect too.
『Wrong… you are hiding your face, so you need not change your tone… eh? Is that your ideal? And if tis a fake na, even Tapil Bael would be adequate…』
Hmm? It seems unpopular with Tre’ainar.
No, I don’t like Tapil Bael.
Besides……
“W, wow………………… Ragaan-Man… s… So Cool…… “
It’s the first ti I’ve seen it. Where Slayer’s eyes were sparkling.
Sohow, like when I saved my father when he was a child, he looked at with pure, sparkling eyes.
I have to respond to that properly.
