Although Hiiro was able to narrowly escape death thanks to the mysterious person who suddenly appeared from the sky, Hiiro still felt that hed seen that appearance from behind sowhere, he searched his mories and tried to recall the said figure.
When that person thereupon faced Hiiro, he was taken aback by it.
Are you..Nitouryuu?
Un..long ti no seeHiiro.
The person took the bandage off his mouth showing his cheeks faintly loosened, and answered Hiiro. Hiiro knew this figure, this person was Nitouryuu. Camus of the Asura Tribe.
Asura Tribe was the race Hiiro and Liliyn encountered by chance when they entered the dessert on the demon continent, and among those people was this young lad whod aided Hiiro as they seized the heart of the Demon-converted Father of his.
Hiiro treated the whole tribe injured by the demon, pushed Camus from hesitating on killing his father, and saved them all consequently in the end.
What are you doing in here.?
Ah, thats because.hm? Please.wait for a mont.
Breaking of from their conversation, Camus looked at the place where the black robed people was crushed a little while ago. Unexpectedly, an explosion occurred from the sand and sothing ca out of it.
They understood that this person was strong as it was able to free from Camus constraints. They felt that it was about to attack again and prepared to guard themselves. But,
Die.
Liliyn ca out of nowhere, and approached the opponent in that brief mont.
(Red Loli!?)
Liliyn directed an abnormal amount of blood thirst towards the assailant aiming at Hiiro.
She poured strength into her thin foot, and kicked him with all her strength.
Bakii!
The opponent was blew off with a backbreaking sound. Though Liliyn tried to follow her attack, her foot stopped the mont she was about take a step forward..
..chi, what a foolish behavior.
Taking a good look at it, there was a needle-shaped object directed at the soles of her foot which was mounted on the ground, if Liliyn had continued her advance, she would have likely received such damage.
For a few seconds, Liliyn turned a deadly glance toward the person blown off by her attack, then she faced Avoros.
(That kid.)
Hiiro understood that Avoros directed his blood thirst so that Liliyn would beco aware of his existence. Hence, Liliyn didnt confront him poorly, and glanced back towards Hiiro.
Everyone, including Hiiro, were in mute amazent for Liliyns obvious indignation.
Hiiro you bastard, that was careless!
Hiiro couldnt answer back. After all, she was right, he was careless. Perhaps if Camus didnt ca, Liliyn would have been the one to help him.
Liliyn was soone who would move if her companions is in great trouble. And she was right, Hiiro couldnt afford to be careless anymore. Settling the sermons later, he gazed back at Avoros.
You were too careless Kainabi.
The mont Avoros called Kainabi, the person who was blown off from Liliyns attack, then kneeled on his feet and bowed his head.
I apologize for my mistake My King. I have showed you sothing unsightly.
The voice of the said person was high pitched similar to that of a woman.
Sorry about that Hiiro-kun. This is child is overprotective. So please forgive her, alright?
It doesnt seem you can manage your subordinates, is this what the rumored Previous Demon King can do?
The air suddenly went cold again. Even if Avoros was laughing, there was a trace stiffness in it. He might have been shocked for being said by that for the first ti.
However, Hiiro did not notice that as Silva turned his gaze towards him with a suspicious expression.
Even Eveam and the Evilas were nervous with cold sweat from Hiiros words. Kainabi as well who saw Hiiros indifferent face, stood up again but stopped when Avoros raised his hands.
.Hiiro-kun, you havent live here for more than ten years, right? Despite how I look, Im more unthinkable as you imagine to be. Dont you have any respect to your elders?
Unfortunately, I dont do such troubleso things. Also, while it may be true that youve lived longer, respecting you is a different matter. At the very least, not to a kid who runs his mouth here and there.
Avoros flawless smile collapsed from his words as his cheeks had a cramp.
I-I see. so the report wasnt exactly false after all, you really are an arrogant youth.
Is that so?
A vein was clearly standing on Eveams expression as all of the people rooted in their places took maximum precaution.
Nevertheless, when Avoros inhaled a big breath,-
. you really are an interesting man.
-he made a sneer, then pulled away his piercing glance gazed to another person.
..for the ti being you.
..?
Avoros called Camus with the latter only inclining his neck with an expressionless face.
Yes, that appearance, youre from the Asura Tribe right? Why did you co here?
He had a point, this was the Gabranth continent not the Evila continent.
I ca to helpHiiro.
Fu~n, are you possibly..friends?
Then, Camus turned his head sideways in rejection.
No.Im Hiiros subordinate.
Eh? Hiiro-kun has a subordinate?
Now that Hiiro was reminded of his words, it did happen. When he saved the Asura Tribe, the compensation was Camus becoming his subordinate. But the mont Hiiros party decided to continue their journey, Camus couldnt co as he needed to protect the Asura Tribe.
Within that ti, Camus promised Hiiro that when hes in trouble, he would hastily co to his side.
(TL Note: Please, I recomnd you toplaythis while reading the next few lines.)
Hiiro. I ca herewhen I heard about the duel.
Though Camus said that with pride and confidence,-
Oi, the duel has already ended you know?
eh?..eeh?
-he beca wide eyed as his current expression collapsed. It was clear that hes depressed from the drop of his shoulders.
No way.and I even did my bestto swim in the sea.
He callously said sothing unbelievable. SS rank creatures inhabited that sea, the current as well were quite strong which was why it was deed impassable. Taking those in mind, Camus swum that sea through all that?
This guy is an idiot, Hiiro thought. He even did such an act as if his life was unnecessary to him. Despite of this though, Hiiro felt a satisfying warmth in his heart when he heard Camus overco those dangerous situations so that he couldonlyreach him.
Good grief. You are too unreasonable. Still, Im pleased for your strong loyalty.
As Hiiro said so with a smile, Camus made a joyous expression, and laughed with a flustered cheek due to his embarrassnt.
Several people were attracted when they saw those two as such. Apart from Liliyn who knew her gender, Muir, Mimiru, and Nikki, these three people, were shocked by the appearance of this beautiful woman.
In addition, there also other people with that sa thinking, though it wasnt to the extent of those three peoples surprise.
.e-errr. I kind of feel bad, but is it alright for to speak now?
(TL Note: You can stop the music now.)
Avoros restored their conversation as he intervened so.
N..what?
Does this an you ca here to support Hiiro-kun?
Yes.
I understand. Then, you are considered as an enemy as well.
However.
Hm?
I have one more..errand.
Hee, may I know what this other errand is?
.I ca..for one of those people.
As Camus spoke so, he looked at the black robed people.
Who are you looking for?
On his cheek..theres a cross shaped wound.
Indeed, Camus was looking for a man with cross wound. He was after the ringleader who changed his father into a demon. Which was why, Camus wanted to reenact revenge by his own hands without fail.
The mont Avoros heard Camus words, the corners of his mouth raised.
Hee. do you think hes here?
Yup. and its that person!
Sand appeared suddenly from Camus feet, and cluster of sand attacked one person among the group. However, sothing crept out from the latters feet.
Bashaaaaa!
It was a gigantic tree. The ground was suddenly divided, and a gigantic tree appeared from it, brushing away the incoming mass of sand.
Not yet!
The sand which should have dispersed to the sky, poured down on the black robed person similar to a rain. However, branches of leaves grew in abundance above the figures overhead. Still, part of the sand was able to make a small crevice on the leaf and reached the person.
It hit its hood, and the figures real face was exposed in broad daylight.
I found you.
Clear murderous intent emitted from Camus stare. That man had a splendid cross wound on his cheek.
The man was handso in appearance, and was approximately aged at 40s. His presence was not inferior to Leowalds, and gazed at Camus quietly.
.that Katana, I see, so you were that child back then, youve grown up.
The man narrowed his eyes as rembered a nostalgic mory from his past.
Do you know him?
Yes My King, Ive known him a little in the past.
Fuu~n, sohow this beca quite an interesting developnt.
Though he was in the dark about Camuss circumstances, he looked at him as if he was watching a movie.
Anyway, although Ive said that my purpose here is to congratulate Eveam for her victory, well, I also have thing to say.
Then, it was followed by another unpleasant smile of his. Because of his rash expression, it felt like Avoros was fit for a good-looking villain role.
My greatest objective..ehem! After this, Ill say it, so make sure to listen, alright?
Everyones attention were now directed at him as Avoros prepares for his next words. And when his thin lips faintly moved,
We are going to conquer Edea
.Ti stopped.
