Day [Life]: Incarnation
The Beginning of the Battle

The demon came out of the black fog and then roared loudly. The ground shook because of the aura. The two soldiers trembled when faced with him.

"Gharrghhhhh!!!!"

Even his roar frightened the citizens and ran away. The streets that had been crowded and orderly, had now turned quiet. Only two soldiers remained.

"Hm...? Has it worked..?"

The demon beast spoke as if he had just woken up from his long slumber. He then glanced at the two soldiers in front of him.

"Oi, say, where is this now?"

He casually spoke to the soldier. The soldier was trembling with fear. Not hearing the answer, the demon beast finally roared a second time and again threatened him.

"Goarghhhhh!!!"

"Say!! Where's this!!"

The two soldiers then answered nervously. Fear and anger mixed in him.

"I-This, i-this is on the street near the square..."

Frustrated, the soldier said. He had no choice but to say it. Wishing to be forgiven by a demonic creature.

"Hm.. So yeah... So he almost failed huh?..."

The demonic creature muttered and then looked towards the two soldiers. His eyes looked hard at them and then pointed his finger at them. With a long nail on his finger, a magic circle was formed. A purple ball appeared in the middle.

"Hi!?"

"Punish us!!! W-We don't want to die!! We beg!!"

The two soldiers then immediately saluted the demon beast.

"Hm...? Subordinates? It's useless! Die!!"

Feeling ridiculed, the demonic creature launched a purple-colored magic ball that it had created from earlier. The magic ball shot out at full speed and crashed into the two warriors.

"Babgh!?"

"Ughhh!?"

Both were thrown into a building and destroyed part of the wall.

*Gradak!! *Krats....

"Ugh..."

Blood had flowed from every part of his body, some of his bones were broken. The other soldier was thrown through the building. He simply slammed into the thin wall of the building and then continued on in the next building.

*bugh!! *csik....

The warrior armor fell down along with his body. The wound of this soldier is arguably more severe because it hit the thin wall of the building and continued to the other wall.

"Yahaha!!! My lord!! This is our victory!!"

After defeating them he shouted into the air loudly.

...****************...

On the other side of the city before that incident, I caught up with Zena and Meli who had walked quite far. Ha.... Let me rest a little...

"Hm..?"

I felt a strange sensation. It felt like vibrations were flowing from my feet.

Land shaking? Thought.

Many people also stop their activities and feel a vibration. Not long after, a roar echoed throughout the alley.

"!? i?!That voice!? Don't-don't!"

I ran immediately when I heard it. While searching for the whereabouts of the voice, I kept running. I saw Zena and Meli holding hands. Right next to it was a fork and something seemed to hit the building.

I was late to say it. The building has collapsed and dust smoke is flying.Sight becomes impaired and cannot see Zena and Meli.

I immediately rushed closer to that direction. The smoke of the flying dust had disappeared, Zena who covered Meli's head and tried to hug her. It seems that before the building hit Meli he had taken the initiative to protect her.

"Oi!! Are you guys okay!?"

I immediately raised Zena who was struggling to stand up.

"Ughs.. Uhuk! Uhuk....!"

His left eye was narrowed and his face seemed to endure the pain. Meli then slightly opened her eyes and looked at Zena who had many scratches. The wound was caused due to the large number of stones that passed through it and scratched its skin.

"Mama!"

Looked Meli who put on a worried face approached Zena and saw some of her injuries.

"I'm sorry... I didn't know it was gonna be like this..."

His face had turned sad. Unadapted tears trickled down his cheeks.His eyes were teary.

"Papa... Meli apologizes for Meli, mama's hurt..."

He's a little bit away from me and Zena. He seems to feel deep guilt. But in this condition...

"Papa's not mad, just don't act like this, okay?"

I smiled sincerely at him.

"Yah!!! Papa!!!"

A cry leaked out and hugged my stomach. I who was embracing Zena slightly bounced because of Meli's strong embrace.

Not long after, the soldiers came with adventurers. One of the adventurers approached us and questioned us.

"Are you guys okay? From what I see you're one family huh? I'll drive you, come with me."

After saying so he then turned towards the opposite direction. I followed her while embracing Zena, Meli followed behind me looking like a child who was afraid of others.

He walked over to one of the tents that had been set up in the middle of those eight. Many of the tents contained medicine and food for soldiers and adventurers.

However, since when does the city have a field?The question came from my mind. As if I wanted to let him into the tent, there was a healer there.

"Oh, it hasn't started yet... There's already one person injured huh..?"

The healer wears glasses and wears a witch-like robe.

"I also just left and I was told to deliver."

"Hm..? All right, please put him in that chair."

As per his orders I put it into a chair facing directly to the healer.

"Okay, then I'll start.."

He then approached and placed his hand directly above Zena's. He closed his eyes and said.

"[Heal]."

Right after that, a golden yellow light shone. Zena's body then returned to health, but she looked exhausted.

"Ok, this way is done. Now take him to a quiet place to recover his stamina."

"Is it okay?"

I asked worried about the healer. In the game, the matra [Heal] would only add blood and remove some wounds. Does not make stamina exhausted or even has no side effects on the target. The side effect will only be received by the user is to take some MP.

"He's just exhausted. The [Heal] magic only sped up recovery, so therefore his stamina was drained away."

He then got out of the tent and made sure things were out there. It seemed that the battle in the middle of the city was just a mere bait. Since not all warriors and adventurers were drawn, some were standing guard outside the gate. The residents also seemed to be frightened in this refugee tent.
