Tsuki Ga Michibiku Isekai Douchuu
Chapter 75: Their Identity

Ara, the color of her clothes changed. Could it be a countermeasure for us? Though you should not be the new recruit who just first smelled the scent of war. You are the Goddess's errand boyish enough huh "

I ignored the woman named Sofia and prepared myself for war. I have fought dragons, spiders, and skeletons; in terms of combat, I have gotten a little used to them now. But fighting humans, as expected, is different.

I'm fine when dealing with people like Lime Latte who only know how to make creepy smiles, but I didn't expect I would fight a bloodthirsty person like my sensei. If I could remain in my mental state when I killed that stupid woman, would I be able to create that kind of bloodlust?

Even if I think about this and that, if I can't do it, it's useless. No need to imagine it, I was already in front of the people who could achieve it. My head is a mess and I can't think very well.

I changed the color of my coat to red. Behind me is a forest. It was in my field of vision, but it was quite a distance away. If I use the speed attribute, I might be able to release them and enter the forest. If it goes well, I will be able to retreat from here! The red color also increased my resistance to sharp attacks, so it served as a countermeasure for the woman as well.

About hyumans.in this occasion, I will ignore them. If the victim shows up, complain to your Goddess.

“This may be an action to make us lower the alertness, do not lose the concentration. Look, he's trying to do something. I felt a convergence of radical magic power "(Son)

I clicked my tongue internally on the child's words. So he can feel the activation of magic huh. Then that means it may not be much use doing arias without sound.

Even so, to not immediately move, are they being free or maybe just negligent? I hope they are just negligent.

I was a bit uncomfortable using a one-shot spell, so I did chain activation on the [Brid] ball and left it on my side, I made from 5 on 5.

I put a keyword in Brids to set a few things up, but I reached my limit. I want to immediately go to Academy City and learn new knowledge. The magic knowledge that can fill the deep abyss from my understanding of magic to understanding the book that Shiki gave me.

"Take this!" (Macoto)

When I activated it, the ball was pulled to its limit until it became a line and released on the woman and child at high speed. At the same time, I turned around and ran at full speed into the forest.

?!

The walls?!

In front of me was a giant wall. A kind of light fused together and worked as a wall. Just a moment ago this wasn't there. But I can't just stand here. Fortunately, it was only a few meters wide. If I avoid it and advance, I can manage it somehow.

I stopped for a moment, but soon I came back running. I zigzagged and tried to avoid it, that I took my time for sure because of my own lack of ability. I want more instincts. Enough so that I could predict these walls that kept appearing one after another.

Damn, even though I had this speed, doing the brakes all the time reduced the benefits by half.

"Currently troublesome" (Makoto)

“Heh~ for an impromptu you were able to create this chain of high-power magic? I thought your fighting experience was the very essence of immaturity, but you are unexpected good. Mitsurugi, I am counting on your foothold and obstruction!” (Sophia)

This extremely strange spectacle of having a wall appeared continuously. The forest that should not be impossible to reach to, feels so far now! Moreover, from under my feet a shining thing is sticking out as well. This is... a sword?! No, just the edge?!

I can’t understand anything!

I concentrate on making the barrier at my feet stronger and scatter the edges that are popping out while running.

Ah~, so difficult to run! At this rate…

I felt a bit angry about the obstruction I placed, so I turned my head a bit in order to confirm the situation. At that place's…

“Ahahahaha! This is incredible. Not only is it conceited, it also chases you!” (Sophia)

“Taking them head on would be a bit heavy huh. Well, there won’t be problems if we invert it. More importantly, Sofia, if that is a secret card of the Goddess, there is something we should do right?”

“I know! But that will be when I do a formal greeting on him and he is still alive, okay?!” (Sophia)

… It’s, not working as an obstruction. Just what the hell are these guys?

The Rapid-fire Brids are definitely not low in firepower. I have these clothes and these rings so my magic power should be pretty strong. And yet, what is that?

The child may be using a magic barrier to divert the fast Brids to a different location. Of course, some of the wind-blown brides ended up where the demons and hyumans were, but it didn't seem like she was doing any follow-up to it. How heartless!

So it is possible to change the length and angle to divert magic huh. When I have time, this is a technique I want to learn. But I had no time to observe the child carefully.

That woman's side did an amazing thing. He used his sword to slash the rapidly fired bride, running like a wild beast to release the bridesmaids and dodging left and right. Also, many glittering objects that looked like swords floated in the air, I don't know if it was made by a woman or by a small child, but she used the sword as a "footing" to perform acrobatic movements, reducing the distance between him and me at a frightening speed.

… You're kidding, right? He cut the magic that came at high speed with a gigantic sword that required both hands. What kind of monster is that ?!

Moreover, he did aerial sprints like acrobatics very easily!

Even though I'm not the Goddess's hidden card or anything like that!

Ah, this wall. It was a sword. Many swords intersected to knit the walls. That girl, is she a special magic user or something? A sword witch perhaps? Usefulness questioned. Well, I can't say anything when I'm surprised by it.

When I tried to escape reality by thinking about random things, she appeared right in front of me. A monster?!

Wasn't he behind me just a moment ago ?!

There is such nonsense hyumans in this world ?! Is he really a human being?

His skin color and appearance might be hyuman but, could it be that he is actually a new creation of the demon race ?!

The problem is not only he is catching up with me! He kicked the wall of the sword, raised his giant sword and dashed towards me!

“Cau ~ ght you !!” (Sophia)

Contrary to the light words he spoke, the figure of the girl holding the giant sword became blurred in an instant. The girl who was in the air did not wait until it landed, and straightforwardly swung her sword at me! I expanded the barrier in front of me and increased it with Sakai to deal with his attack. It's not that I don't believe in the durability of my armor, but I will do everything I can.

"?!"

An extremely high pitched voice resounded and the girl's sword bounced upwards. I blocked. But that barrier was also offset and destroyed! No way, that sword. Don't tell me that the sword has some crazy property like a "magic killer" or something, right ?!

I wanted to try expanding a barrier again but I won’t make it in time. Her chase and mowing is a fist. To be able to do such a feat with an unstable stance, just what kind of body control is that?!

Just like how I was surprised that she was able to destroy my barrier, she was also shocked that her sword was repelled. That means she was pretty sure that attack would decide everything but was stopped. To be able to think that way when doing it with such an outrageous posture.

This woman, won’t she get astonished or waver? Or is it just that my decision-making is too slow? The ability to instantly decide on your next action at a fight of life and death, I haven’t learned that before and there is no way I will suddenly be able to do it in real combat.

What to do? What should I do?!

I place the [Sakai] to protect only my body, and cross my arms to defend against the attack coming from my left. This time I can only wage on the eldwas. To avoid the worst case scenario, I thought about springing my body back but my reflexes couldn’ follow so I was unable to do it. Rather, to be able to raise my arms is enough to make me wanna raise myself.

I can’t close my eyes. There is no assurance that she won’t do a follow-up. I resolve myself and prepare for the swing.

There is no doubt this is an imperfect attack stemming from a crazy posture. Even so, I can’t relax.

However, it seems I won the bet. It was a dull attack and there was no pain. The part that was hit only felt a bit number. I wasn’t even sent flying.

I know this in an armor that the eldwas are proud of, but to actually block a sword with clothes feels strange.

This time she lands and looks at me with eyes wide open, taking her distance from me, arriving at a pretty distant place. To do so many movements in mid-air and still be able to land with her two feet. Truly awe.

At her side there is the kid. So they have destroyed all the batteries huh. Well, I did set them up thinking only about defense though. Seriously, what are these guys?

Don’t tell me... heroes?!

No, that’s not it. If that were the case, they wouldn’t be with the demon army. What am I thinking?

If I remember correctly, this girl is called Sofia. The kid, I think the woman called him in the name of a famous sword. Mitsuruji. I feel like I have heard that name before…

“Wait~ that funny lump, what is it? He is way too amusing. He has abilities and movements that are’t even worth mentioning, and yet, that hardness, reflex, magic power; his standards are on an abnormal level. A mismatched pervert” (Sofia)

“I also feel that way. Even though he is incredibly strong, he is way too crude. I don’t understand at all” (Mitsurugi)

“Then provide me cover at least once” (Sofia)

“I was busy destroying the source of these attacks. Don’t ask for the impossible” (Mitsurugi)

Are these comments about me? I am sorry for being amusing to the level of laughing and an incomprehensible existence. Also, I am glad to have left the batteries stationary there. I think I am the one that needs support the most though not you.

“Well, once we take control, the situation should change. Ghjkop \ kkjjgf” (Sofia)

“Oh, so we use that ring on this single opponent? At least say when you will use Sofia ”(Mitsurugi)

“There is no other option, right? This child seems to have received quite a blessing from the Goddess "(Sofia)

Huh huh? What mantra is meant by “Trample Lord” prayer?

The last half of what Sofia said made no sense and made me wonder. Words I have never heard before. Is that keyword to activate something? But if I remember correctly, tools filled with magic are usually activated with the same language?

This language was my first.

As if responding to her aria, the ring on Sofia's right hand collapsed. Undamaged, it was more like, collapsing into a state impossible to recover.

Just as I was widening Sakai, a mysterious surging sensation spread from the ring of the shattered ring.

With this... What has changed? It seems like the situation has not changed at all. My lifeline which is magic power can still be used without any problems. At least, the amount I still have inside me has no problem.

“Umu. Looks like it's a success. With this the test is completed. However, this is interesting. I didn't think there would come a time when we could nullify the Goddess' interference. The worldwide influence he exerts can now be changed to our liking ”(Sofia)

“Since the beginning you and I have not been blessed by it, so there is no reproach. Also, demons and demonic beasts as well. Basically, it is a tool that only has benefits if it is used by someone who is inhuman. Not only that, the effect of negating the blessing of the Goddess seems to be quite fast ”(Sofia)

"But the person who created this is ..." (Mitsurugi)

“Don't say that. After all there are still Goddesses who believe here "(Sofia)

Saying that, Sofia looked at me. Removing the Goddess's interference? Doing something like that. What will the hyuman girl get from him?

If he was a demon, it would be a topic that had high research value.

They ... didn't take my eyes off me. I think this is my chance to make the gates as they speak, but if I concentrate and start my aria, I will, I felt like I was going to be cutting down wood in an instant and it scared me.

Or more like, why am I on the side of the Goddess? I have gone through terrible things because of that bug you know?

Ugh, the sensation of my left hand is numbering. This is bad. Should I loosen the bandages? No, that’s no good. I don’t know how much blood I am allowed to bleed. I feel like it is a bad call to worsen the situation if I end up suffering blood loss.

This is the worst. Can healing magic cure an arm necrosis? Shiki, when I return I am really counting on you. I don’t want to become a one-armed person at this age.

“I am not on the side of the Goddess” (Makoto)

Even though I know it won’t get through them, I still say it.

“Hoh~, what does that mean?” (Mitsurugi)

“What, Mitsurugi. You understand these words? That was clearly not common language though” (Sofia)

Wa's? Wait a minute, that girl. Don't tell me, he's a human? It's bad, I made a mistake again. Although I knew my verbal expression was like a fantasy, this "understanding" given to me was really no different. As expected of the abilities given by the Goddess.

“Red, answer. What do you mean when you say you're not on the Goddess' side? You were without a doubt brought to this battlefield by the Goddess. Didn't you like the two summoned heroes from another world, someone who was brought here to protect Limia? That crazy power, I can only suppose it was given to you by the Goddess ”(Mitsurugi)

“You, you're not human?” (Macoto)

When I asked the boy if he was a human, I took Limia's word.

Limia, if I remember correctly, it is a great power that directly faces the demon race. If they call me protector, does that mean this is a key location for Limia?

“Well, for now yes. Right now I have chosen to be just that hyuman. Can you speak if I am inhuman? You are becoming more and more mysterious. From your looks, can you be half of a human and something else? ” (Mitsurugi)

While pointing at Sofia, the child explains that she is a different living being that has taken on a human form. What do you mean by me being half of my appearance? Sofia also calls me a synthetic animal. I can't accept that.

But a situation like this where they tell me these things as if looking for a fight with no ill intentions, I'm used to it. That doesn't make me angry.

“I have no reason to fight on this battlefield and I have no intention to join hands with the Goddess. How about that? Will you leave this as a misunderstanding and let me? ” (Makoto)

"That's impossible. I'm gonna make you die here. You were summoned here by the Goddess. No misunderstandings anywhere ”(Mitsurugi)

“I only had some sort of previous relationship with that Goddess alone. To kill me here, why is that? Because that hyuman woman named Sofia was allied with the demon race? I won't tell anyone that information "(Makoto)

The boy who nonchalantly obeyed my words, suddenly became silent. He looked at me with a dumbfounded expression. Whatisit?

I think it must be because it would be bad for others to know that he cooperated with the demon race?

“... Hyuman Woman, you say? Nails... Ahahahaha! ” (Mitsurugi)

The boy suddenly raised his voice and laughed out loud. Did I say something bad?

"What's? Why did you suddenly start laughing? " (Sophia)

“Sofia, listen. This guy, it looks like he doesn't know about you ”(Mitsurugi)

I think it's obvious. This is the first time I've met him. Moreover, he suddenly tried to slash at me.

"... Huhn ~ Well, if he's the same as the heroes, it's a given right?" (Sophia)

“But he doesn't seem like a hero. And he begged for his life. Saying "please leave me" (Mitsurugi)

What's so weird about that? It's just that, no doubt the situation is bad. As hostilities increase.

“The Goddess does things that are incomprehensible. To think he would throw an unknown person into the battlefield. I don't think he just ran out of pawns? You were killed by people you didn't know and people who didn't even know your name. It's not something you want, is it? I'll allow you to tell us your name ”(Mitsurugi)

“I don't intend to be killed. However, at these times, shouldn't your side call themselves first? ” (Makoto)

I try my best to play strong. Also, if possible, I want to avoid meeting with this monster. I want information, seriously.

“Kuku, your tongue is first class huh. Fumu, okay. Then we'll start first. The one who swung the number one sword in this world was Sofia Bruga. Her nicknames were "Dragon Killer" and level 920, a famous woman. And I'm Lancer. Well, Sofia used to call me Mitsurugi ”(Mitsurugi)

…

… .. Eh?

Bruga Sofia? Dragon Slayer?

Wasn't that the name of the previous strongest level in the guild? Moreover, Lancer, that name, if I want to, is the name of the dragon that Sofia killed right? Right, if I don't remember wrongly, his nickname is Mitsurugi.

A moshimoshi? Moshimoooo ~ shi!

There was absolutely no reason for such a big fish to aim at my neck!

“... I'm Raidou. A merchant "(Makoto)

I barely managed to name myself. However, the waves in my heart showed no signs of abating. Attacked by the highest peaks of hyumans and Tomoe's previous associates. This situation is something I still can't think of.

“Raidou. Say you are a trader, totally a lie-”(Mitsurugi)

“Hmph ~, Raidou yes. You've completed the introductions, haven't you? Again, I'm Sofia Bruga. As you can see, I am an adventurer trying to be on the side of the devil. And, the one who's gonna kill you "(Sofia)

Sofia interrupted Lancer's words and announced her intention to kill me. This woman, what is she thinking? If you rise up against the Goddess, I feel we can become friends, but why did it turn into killing me?

“Sofia, I'm talking. Then the one called Raidou, this is sayonara. You have seen something that should not be visible ”(Mitsurugi)

You're the one who told me.

Sooner than his words were finished, around Lancer and in my own environment, as well as in the sky, the swords made by him began to appear.

This is a situation where this is not the right time to talk.

It makes me laugh. It really makes me laugh.

This senseless checkmate, damn it I'll let it go! Can't depend on the best friend I finally got, and die without anyone knowing. Like I'm gonna let that happen.

I won't think of holding myself back anymore. Or rather, I was shocked left and right and had no chance of restraint or anything!

No matter what, I will create an opportunity and escape!

The blood came out too much and it made my situation worse. Goddamn Goddess. Calling me in a crazy place. I have decided to learn how to fight his summoning as my top priority. I wonder how far the Academy has taught the topic of summoning.

Even while doing all this, the insect did not say anything to me. Did he really see? At least say something!

“Then I will come. Your crazy defensive power should have disappeared by now that the Goddess's disturbance had disappeared. It would be a simple massacre now "(Sofia)

Ah, so that's what he meant by "interference".

That means, he called me all the way here without question and now he can't do anything? No, it was because he couldn't do anything so he called me here? Uh.. Which one is it?

No matter which one, how stupid he was. As expected of the Insect Goddess, she was an idiot. Instead of saying "I found you", say "I want you to do something". I will actually run the opposite direction of his words.

“It looks like the heroes are being cornered by the demon general. Removing the remains of the Goddess here was also not a bad idea "

The world seems to have anti-Goddesses. This relieved me a bit and at the same time I was amazed that there were anti-strengths in the world that he managed.

I'm a little interested in heroes. Tsukuyomi-sama told me to treat them well.

Only, my life is the most important. I'm sorry but, you heroes set things up on your own.

After all, these idiots, they ended up lowering their guard.

I feel like their atmosphere is a little slack. They should be sure of the ring's effect.

They were free to believe that I was enhanced by the interference of the Goddess. Even if I deny it, they won't listen to my words. They can beat me now.

But well ~ it won't happen.

Unlike before, however, I will "strengthen".

Being in a fighting position, while feeling anger, I took off the ring that was on my left hand and on my right hand. I took off all my rings
