The good ole stuff
The soldiers of Swordland are holding their swords with both hands as well.
Having a length of around 1 m with their blades extending straight-lined, they give a boorish impression coupled with thickness.
The soldiers, who are facing Hifumi, grasped those swords tightly. They broke into a run while motivating themselves with Theres just one enemy.
You mad friend of the animals! Die!
A single sword, swept sideways, approaches Hifumi rapidly.
But, taking one step forward, Hifumi prepared the katana vertically and hit his enemys elbow with it. Assisted by the weight and force of the soldiers sword, the elbow broke with a dry sound.
Gyaaa
At the point the soldier gave a short scream, Hifumis katana slips into the soldiers neck.
The soldiers faltered from the smiling man, who deliberately bathed in the spurt of blood.
Arent your swings fairly fast? However, its not rely about swinging it. (Hifumi)
You use the hamon like this, Hifumi stepped into and hit the group, which was is in a sorry state, with thrusts. He stabbed both eyes of the soldier, standing at the forefront, up to the brain.
Sending the soldier, who collapses without even a single sound, flying with a kick, he cut up the bellies of the soldiers, flinching from the thrown body, horizontally in a straight line.
There are two left.
Hifumi slowly approaches the soldiers, who have already lost the will to fight, holding the katana, which is dripping with blood.
W-Why are you acting as ally of the beastn?
Im not particularly their ally. (Hifumi)
In reality he had crushed several villages killing more than 100 beastn in the wastelands.
If you beco my enemy, it will be the sa treatnt for beastn as for humans. If you cut them, at can be seen and blood gushes out. Look. (Hifumi)
With a sharp thrust he sliced the carotid artery of the asking soldier with a snapping sound* and a red fountain gushed forth. (T/N: or pakuri)
All living beings trying to survive in this world have the sa flesh and blood. Im supporting the principle of equality, thus I wont discriminate. (Hifumi)
The soldier, who collapsed losing blood, died before Hifumi finishes his speech.
The remaining soldier has already let go of his sword and is retreating slowly.
Dont run away. Lets enjoy it until the end. (Hifumi)
U-Uwaah
The second the soldier turned his back unable to endure it, the katanas point pierced through the back of the neck and was reflected in the soldiers view.
While struggling due to choking and confusion, he vomited blood violently.
How was the appearance of Hifumi, who looked down on him, reflected in the soldiers field of vision, which was blacking out? In a state of having his eyes widely opened in terror, the last one passed away.
He died, huh? The level of the underlings is around this much, eh? I wonder, will I be able to enjoy the feast a bit longer, if its a group of knights? Say, do you know? (Hifumi)
Hifumi threw a question facing the shadow of a building close to him.
A large shadow of a person shows a sign of surprise and escapes without saying anything.
Yes? I wondered whether it will be a match with soone quite powerful, but well, who cares. (Hifumi)
The next prey probably wont co to todays spot, Hifumi wiped the katana with a folded paper and returned to the building, which he is using for lodging.
The one who escaped from being asked about his identity by Hifumi at the stage of the tragedy was no one else but Salgu.
He, who returned to the slums after observing the human area for a while, was surprised of the slums appearance, which completely changed in a short ti.
What the hell, this is a human? (Salgu)
In the slum city humans are walking alongside beastn as if it was a common occurrence. Their state cant be seen as anything else but them being close friends, with no distinction of slave and master.
Once he proceeded into the slums interior, reflexively hiding himself and moving stealthily, he discovered the remains of the previous slums appearance with old houses, which havent been demolished yet.
Oh, Arent you Mr. Ally-of-Justice?
The one who called out to Salgu, who is at a loss, was the one-ard dogman. It was the man, he t first, when he entered the slums.
Is the rescue of beastn or such making progress?
The dogman, who is laughing loudly*, is completely different from the ti when he t him the last ti. He wore neatly tailored clothes. (T/N: *karakara*)
What the heck happened to the slums? It looks like humans have entered, too. (Salgu)
Even if you ask what happened, I dun know either. What I know is that theres work I can do as well. Even if its only for the obtaining of decent food.
Work, you say? (Salgu)
Salgu tilted his head to the side due to the words he hasnt heard about in the wastelands.
Well, yea. Even one-ard Im able to at least carry goods and hamr nails. Even this house, I was contracted to help with it. Well, I was mostly trained by humans though.
Salgu faced his fangs at the bashful dogman.
Is it that much fun to have been used by humans? In the end, if you have beco a slave (Salgu)
Your outlook is really narrow.
The dogman shook his head and shrugged his shoulders with a Good grief.
Its different from being a slave. Working and receiving money for that work, you can buy food with it. I bought clothes, too. Theres no danger to my life either. You wont be able to anticipate sothing like being able to relish variously tasting food in the wastelands, right?
But you dont have to do sothing like following what the likes of humans tell you! (Salgu)
We lived by us beastn are fine due to the likes of humans. Are you still unable to comprehend that? Even if you killed one or two humans, it will only be natural for our standing to not change, if we dont change.
Though thats second-hand telling of what the sheep jou-chan said, the dogman laughs looking embarrassed.
Salgu isnt able to understand that at all.
Running about freely in the wastelands and spending ti in nature without being tied by anyone should be the best for beastn. But, the man in front of him is glad being used by humans and to associate with them.
You are what is it with you? (Salgu)
The dogman cant help but smile bitterly due to the words, which rushed out of Salgus mouth.
Oi, oi, are you alright?
The dogman, who drew near in worry, tried to place his hand on the shoulder of Salgu, who is much larger than him, but Salgu, displaying his nimble ability, knocked that arm away.
Guaa! Bastard!
You son of a bitch! (Salgu)
Due to the dogman raising a voice of anger and pain, the claws of Salgu, who countered with swearing, attack the dogman.
The paw, thrust at the dogmans opened mouth, stabbed all the way through to the back of the head.
The head, which was almost plucked off, drops limply and the dogmans body falls to its knees and collapses.
Although its the slums, is in the dead centre of the city during day. Its not only one or two passers-by, who witnessed that.
Looking at the sticky blood attached to his right hand, the ears of Salgu, who ca to his senses, heard a scream and he surveyed his surroundings.
There were humans and beastn in the vicinity, but watching them retreat showing looks of fright, Salgu realized that he was the cause of the scream.
I-Its different! This is (Salgu)
Murderer!
Soone! Please help!
Salgus explanation doesnt reach anyone.
It was a situation, where it was impossible to lend an ear to the overly selfish explanation of a 3 m big bearman, who is swinging around his bloodstained hands in a circle, trying to rectify his previous action.
Guu damn! (Saulgu)
Pushing his way through the clamouring people, Salgu ran away from the area.
Salgu escaped deeper into the slums without even turning his eyes at the beastn and humans opening the way while screaming.
Plunging into a decayed, broken building, the day ca to an end while he is pondering about an excuse scared of the pursuers.
And, at the ti when the veil of darkness descended, he saw Hifumi, who killed humans as human, at the place, he ca back to, moving stealthily.
The best he could do now was to frantically hold down the urge of wanting to scream having his emotions and faith stirred up within his mind.
Salgu, who confird that dreadful human having gone sowhere, walked unsteadily wishing for a hiding place in the area, where the humans live, as the situation of him being in the slums has beco scary.
The mood of Swordlands king, Buell, was extrely bad.
And, once again, plenty of reports have co in to cause his ill humour.
There are no reports from the soldiers dispatched to the slums. Without them even returning, its unknown what the cause might be.
The king grabs the armrest of the throne with strained fingers. *Creak* is the sound reverberating during the quiet audience.
However, the knight, who ca to report, cannot afford to stop his words.
According to the information of people, who infiltrated by blending in with the carpenters during dayti, the beastn apparently were reconstructing the slums buildings, incorporating engineering and starting sham shops. It seems they even heard the rumour of them creating agricultural land in one part, but that couldnt be confird.
The knight, who took a breath, stole a fleeting glance at the king.
He knows that the kings flushing face is under a level of pressure looking to snap any ti soon. If the knight wasnt giving his report while being quite away from in front of the throne, he might have been slain in irritation.
There are talks that the soldiers were killed, but it appears that even among the beastn its unknown who might have done it. Even the murder case of a fellow beastman
Enough! (Buell)
The king, who interrupted the knight, stood up and entrusted his voice to rage.
Since when have the soldiers of this country beco a gathering of weaklings, who are even unable to enter a city of beastn! Although they are soldiers, dont they even have the elation to be the pride of the knight country!? (Buell)
My king. Sothing like soldier wont even exceed a gathering of plebeians, who went broke, after all. Shouldnt you teach the foolish beastn, who are imitating humans, their standing by deploying the knights here?
A single, young man stepped forward among the knights lining up in a row in the audience hall. He has well-featured looks and blonde hair, which had a lax, wavy hairstyle. He has many aspects found in high-ranking nobles of Swordland with a good pedigree.
Then, if its you, you will be able to handle it, is what you say, Zebul (T/N: >> Zeburu
