How many tis do I have to be surprised today?
Ever since I ca to this campsite, Ive been constantly surprised.
I an, I heard it wrong, right?
? Whats wrong?
Aiba is still smiling as calmly as before.
Yeah, thats right. I must have misheard. I must have.
Um, Im sorry. I think I misheard you. Can you repeat what you said?
No problem. The reason I ca to this world is to kill all the humans in this world.
I didnt mishear.
What? Youre joking, right? Why? What do you an?
But Rebel, who was sitting next to , nodded her head as if she believed him.
Well, thats expected. You were the biggest idiot among all those idiots after all.
Thats harsh.
Idiots are idiots, arent they? They dont recognize anyone but themselves as human, they look down on the people of the other world as a lower race, and they try to take their land and occupy it. They are nothing but stupid and foolish invaders, arent they? Am I wrong?
It hurts my ears to hear you say that. But there was no way for us to survive except to rge with this world. Isnt that right?
Fusion and invasion are two very different things. Dont distort Masters wishes.
At Aibas argunt, Rebel snickered.
But our king and parliant saw it that way. So it is only logical that we, his subjects, should follow suit, isnt that true?
If our liege is wrong, it is our duty, as his true vassals, to advise and guide him in the right direction. You shouldnt stop thinking, you fucking idiot.
If you talk too much, people will question your upbringing and dignity.
Thats your countrys style, isnt it? Oh? I wonder what country it is. I wish soone would tell .
You really dont shut up, do you?
Aiba sighed.
Well, I guess thats why you were able to beco his disciple..
Thats right. Hmmm, could it be, are you jealous?
Are you a child?
Youre trying to get the upper hand.
It doesnt matter how trivial it is, she just wants to get the upper hand on her opponent.
Aiba also has a very complex look on his face.
What is it?
I cant help but feel sorry for him, even though Rebel is on my side.
Aiba turned to look at .
I averted my eyes unconsciously.
Uh, well, Miss Rebel, is it okay if we go back to the story?
Yes, of course. Ill kill him after I hear what he has to say.
No, Id rather you didnt
Why do we need to keep the man who wants to kill all the people in this world alive? Ah well, once Ive squeezed as much information out of him as I can, Ill kill him, dont worry.
A tyrant.
No, its reliable as an ally.
No, thats why
Aiba was about to say sothing, but the next mont, his expression changed.
The next thing he knew, the twig that Rebel was holding in her hand was pressed against his neck.
Huh?
Wha what is the aning of this?
It was terrifyingly fast. I couldnt even follow it with my eyes.
It must have been the sa for Aiba. He broke out in a cold sweat and was astonished.
You know.. dont you? Even an undead will die if you cut off their heads with a weapon that has been infused with the power to exterminate demons.
.
I gulped.
The re twig in Rebels hand looked like a sharp blade.
Im sure its not just an illusion.
Without a doubt, she can cut off Aibas head with that twig.
Do you want to try to resist? I dont think you can though.
If you want to kill I dont have a choice. But, I have one request.
What is it?
There are two won at the campsite, Midori Goshogawara and Satsuki Goshogawara. Could you please take them to your base? It seems that their father is still alive and I would like them to reunite with him.
Worrying about others at this point? Or are you just trying to buy so ti?
I have no such intentions. Its just that Satsuki and the others have taken care of . I just wanted to return the favor one last ti.
Rebel stood still and stared at Aiba silently.
Sounds like youre not lying.
I wouldnt lie to you. At least not to you or him.
haah.
In the midst of this strained atmosphere, Rebel raised her hand with the twig and threw it away with a snap.
Oh, my. So much for joking with each other, huh?
Huh?
Saying that, Rebels expression collapsed.
All at once, the tense air from earlier relaxed as if it was just an illusion.
Eh? Re, Rebel?
Whats with that face? Did you really think I was going to kill him?
No, I didnt?
Perhaps amused by my reaction, Rebel chuckled.
Youre going to kill all the humans in this world, you say. I can tell by looking at this that you dont an it. If you were serious, the people around here would have been exterminated long ago. This is the best proof that you are not truly hostile to them.
De, dead?
Thats not a very nice thing to say, is it?
..I really am no match for you.
Aiba raised his hand in agreent.
Youre right. I have no intention of killing the people of this world. There is a lot more to it than that. No, I guess its more accurate to say that I no longer intend to.
What do you an? You make it sound like you were going to kill us in the beginning.
Youre right. Thats exactly what I ca to this world for.
I was horrified to hear Aiba admit that so simply.
Like Rebel, how can these people say such disturbing things in a tone as if what they are saying is no different from everyday conversation?
Its bad for my heart.
That was the plan But after coming to this world and eting Satsuki and the others, I changed my mind. They werent the lowly race that the king and the higher-ups said they were. They were human beings just like us
Aibas face turned grim, as if he was rembering sothing.
I didnt know anything about it. I was a retired knight, but I was indebted to the royal family. In the hope of reducing the burden on the advance team as much as possible, I agreed to Randalls suggestion of using a loophole Now that I think about it, he must have approached in the hope that I would be able to help him.
Randall..Yes, it was him
Randall?
Co to think of it, Aiba had ntioned that na a while ago.
Rebel, who is Randall?
Hes one of the leaders of the Knights. Hes quite skilled, and hes probably been chosen as a mber of the advance team.
A mber of the advance team?
But why did he tell Aiba? He certainly was an odd one, but no, more importantly, how did he find a loophole in the system?
I dont know that either. But he was talking to so other people besides . However, I dont think there was anyone like who wanted to abandon their humanity and slip into this world.
There are no benefits. Its also a big risk However, there are exceptions, such as you, and we should consider searching for them while preparing for their arrival
In the midst of this feeling of being left behind, I raised my hand nervously.
So, in other words, youre not planning to be our enemy, is that correct?
Yes, of course.
Aiba held out his hand to .
I tried to shake his hand, but
Well, for now, I believe you. Be grateful, Iver.
Rebel, who had interrupted from the side, took his hand instead.
What? Why are you both looking so sensitive?
Read the room.
I think Aiba and I were probably thinking the sa thing.
Haah, but Im relieved. To be honest, I was prepared to be killed the mont I t you.
So you wanted to et Rebel even though you could have been killed..?
Yes, I did. My actions were also an insult to her and to that person. I had to fulfill my responsibility.
He said he was going to kill all the people in this world, but then he easily turned around and wanted to see Rebel, even though she might have killed him.
Basically, his actions are full of contradictions.
I sohow felt that I understood the true nature of this persons unpredictability.
Then, Kudou, take the girls to your base!
Suddenly, Aiba clutched his chest and began to struggle for breath.
Hey, are you okay?
Its no problem. It will go away soon. Ever since I turned into this, my body has been in bad shape..
Is it possible for an undead person to be in bad shape?
I turned to Rebel, she nodded her head as well.
Then, this ti, an explosion sounded from the campsite.
!? What, what is it?
When I turned my eyes towards the campsite, I saw that a monster was charging towards the campsite, tearing down the trees.
Shaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Was that a tal Lizard?
Wasnt there just one?
No, more importantly, why did it appear so suddenly?
There was no response from the Danger Perception.
Rebel!
Yeah, no problem. I can take care of that little fish in a second. Kazuto, dodge!
What?
She shouted frantically.
I felt a chill run down my spine.
!!
I reflexively guarded my face with my right arm.
The next mont, I was blown away.
I was slamd into a tree and felt a sharp pain in my back.
Ugh
What a trendous impact.
If I hadnt guarded myself with my right arm or more accurately, with my clothes-mimicking Aka, I might have been in trouble.
What the hell happened?
Its as if I was hit by sothing.
I look at the place where I was a mont ago.
There was the thing that had punched .
..Huh?
For a mont, I was stunned beyond reason.
Its impossible.
Why are you there?
You should have been dead a long ti ago.
This is a joke, right?
I wo
uld never forget it.
It was my first trauma, the symbol of my fear.
High Orc.
When he saw , he laughed.
He seed to be truly enjoying himself.
It was as if he was happy to see again.
Uwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!
The scream, reverberated through the air.
