nForty-Seventh Episode~ Item Box Function

nTranslator’s Corner: Sorry this chapter took so long everyone . Enjoy~

nEditor’s Corner: Well you nerds I am back and I am as Grumpy as ever . I will be doing a “cleaner” edit after i get caught up with the other chapters . Anyways… Stay Beautiful my Friends and Enjoy!

nNext, I will look at the Petersen Passage Fragment .

nFumu, fumu .

nSomehow or other this seems to be the notes of a well-known adventurer .

nThere are several written pages .

nThe title is “Giants of Legend and the Northern Cliff”

nThis is a little long, I guess I will read it .

n□■□■

nHere is the farthest ends of the north .

nThe non-search area established by the Rolloliza Kingdom’s Adventurer’s Guild .

nIt was said human kind has never set foot here, but they were completely mistaken .

nThere is Kingdom of unknown tall humans .

nAn ancient city with a black ring .

nA city that was destroyed by the Night Traveling Magic Army .

nA country of High Elves .

nAn Empire of Dark Elves on the surface instead of being underground .

nAn area ruled by Goblins .

nI could breakthrough all of those areas safely because I could use the ancient metastasis formations I discovered .

nThis must have been good luck; everyone was happy and laughed together .

nHowever, these furthest reaches of the north, I regret coming here intensely .

nWhy?

nOur expedition clan 【Fortress】 has collapsed .

nCompanions and those married for such a long time . All of them are dead .

nKilled and eaten .

nBy those big monsters, “Giants…”

nOur first advance into the giant’s territory went smoothly, but it may have been the cause of our carelessness .

nFriends and experienced fighters from the labyrinth city .

nThese people at times, not to mention being eaten by the giant goblins, were also overwhelmed by the Cyclops giants and were wiped out .

nTo be frank, I was relieved the fighting could be left to these powerful people .

nThe consequence, the giants and such weren’t “one kind of monsters . ”

nHowever, the giants we met one day were different .

nOur attacks landed, but, their recovery speed was not ordinary .

nIf there were only a few giants, we might have overwhelmed them with our numbers .

nHowever, newcomers continued arriving, our attacks couldn’t keep up and there were too many .

nAnd, in the end we had no choice but to escape . Before, if I checked the anti-giant tactics more carefully, it might have turned out differently .

nYet, it was too late, in this way, us proud of our unequalled strength from 【Fortress】 are alone . Alone again, we in turn were caught by the hands of the giants and eaten .

nThe giants are more than twenty meters tall .

nMost of the giant monsters are one-eyed cyclopes .

nNext, are giant two-headed Etin, giant demi-humans with a figure close to human .

nThere aren’t very many, but there are the especially big rock mountain giant kind .

nThe smallest of the giants are the giant goblins .

nThe non-search area is one where such various giants rule .

nThe giants are different from ordinary monsters .

nThey aren’t only slow and enraged, there are those possessing intelligence among them .

nThere are creatures like us humans, small as ants, living here .

nIt is an existence that is always destroyed . They are food in the world of giants .

nHowever, now, I taken a pen and write it, I am the only one left, I was able to escape thanks to a certain organization .

nAn organization that opposes the giants . They call themselves the silent hunters .

nI was helped by the people with a profession like adventurers but misunderstood .

nAnd, surprisingly, there are demonic beings as core members of this unit .

nThey fight alongside the humans and demi-humans against the giants .

nThe humans here join hands with the demonic beings to survive even if they know they aren’t supposed to . As such the silent hunters are an organized military .

nTheir moral is high and all the members can use ranged weapons, proximity weapons, or magic .

nSeeing the giant extermination tactics using huge arrow ballistas and wide scale magic felt refreshing .

nHowever, even they cannot oppose them with certainty .

nThe giants are strong-

nThe cyclops of the ordinary rank is probably stronger than a wyvern class dragon .

nThey attack with group tactics again and again…

nSuch a hellish world exists .

nThe people who read this in the future should understand this well…the giant hunting . I was taught about the history by the leader around here .

nThe origin of the situation is this northern place .

nA giant civilization of large humans seems to exist between the cliffs .

nTo prevent the invasion of giants, the human kind like myself constructed a wall in ancient times more than 50 meters tall called the “Northern Cliff of Despair . ” It was built between the cliffs making use of the mountains, it was said it stopped the invasion of the giants .

nBut, with the attack of the first cyclops clan the wall was broken .

nThe people scattered after that, they were forced to live a life of escaping from the giants .

nThis information was surprising

nI remember my home .

nFortunately, this area seems to be the northern most point .

nThe southern end of Rolloliza is far away…

nNow, I am here, this area completely destroyed by giants, my home country is several tens of hundreds of countries away from here . No matter how strong the giants are it shouldn’t matter with those numbers .

nThe earth is absurdly vast .

nThe giant race however is too much in its current state .

nHowever, even if I brought this information back to my home, the huge group of us humans .

nMy stories of the attacks will be laughed at, they will say I have become funny in the head, I can’t expect to find another companion .

n□■□■

nIt is mostly complaints after this .

nI stop reading the Petersen passage fragment .

nSuch a struggle is happening in a far-off place…

nThe one-eyed giant, Cyclops .

nWhen they attack in a group…the ground must shake like an earth quake .

nI feel fear when I imagine it .

nI pick up the “Ancient Writing Stone of the Dawn” next .

nThere are three in total, but all have the characters carved into the slate so I will read them properly .

nI begin to read the ancient characters on the slate .

n□■□■

nThe glory of our dawn burns with a red light in the dark night .

nA victory song of glory will be sung .

nBringing about godly power by using the sacred treasure .

nThe magic tool technique produces two sacred treasures .

nThe genuine article and imitation, but do not turn into sacred treasures .

nThe dharmatic power of sacred treasure’s vessel is enough to destroy monsters .

nThere are the ruins at the bottom of a lake deep underground .

nA mysterious box concealed by a transparent membrane .

nIt is unknown by the descend of the ancient land of the gods Gordeku Priest .

nThe dharmic power surpasses everything .

nSeveral thousand years have passed without it being opened, the unknown barrier .

nThe Emperor’s Sacred treasures do not work and becomes the body of Seurosu, the God of Work .

n□■□■

nAbstracts words continue the three writing stones .

nA little flower ornament of one day . The word is similar but the meaning may be different .

nOn to the next item .

n-Ronto Manuscript

nI thought it would be like the Voynich manuscripts but it is different .

nThe book is torn on the way but it is made of relatively new parchment .

nI read the Ronto manuscript .

nAria, the goddess of love, shepherdess of Raze, descend in front .

nThe goddess Aria descends with the figure of a small girl .

nThe story begins with Laze, the Shepard, receiving an oracle, awakening him to the religion of the Goddess Aria . To spread her teachings far and wide, his adventure took him to wander the world over . In the middle of this, while telling the people of the Goddess Aria’s religion, the prophet, or maybe something closer to the evangelist, whilst being persecuted by every powerful person everywhere he went, he discovered the sacred area of Cordelia . There, he constructed a Holy Temple of Aria .

nThe paper is torn at this point so the story ends .

nThough incomplete, from what I understand, it is like the story of Moses from the bible .

nThen, I close the Ronto manuscript .

nMoving on to the next .

nThis is item I purposely avoided .

nIts appearance and name have an impact .

nThe name “Ten Wicked Pictures Shitatop”

nIt looks like a small gourd-shaped bottle, pot, the tip is like a key?

nIt has two realistic human ears on the sides, the small gourd has scolding eyes and a long bent nose . It looks like an accessory .

nIt is strangely realistic and finely crafted, making it weird .

nSomething, this form…

nI cannot help but make a joke if it looks like this…

nMaa, my imagination is getting out of control .

nAh, is its appearance a “human face pot?”

nKuna left behind her notes about it .

nIf I am not mistaken, it is a mysterious item that desires blood . However, it looks like Aladdin will appear if I rub it . (TL: THAT’S NOT HOW THAT WORKS) I will laugh if the great demon kind Atchoo appears .

nOf course, I do not actually rub it . Its appearance is intense and frightening, without making a wish I will put it away in the item box…

nNext is the two Magic Character books .

nI will want to try the magic once after I learn it so it will be dangerous to do here .

nI need to look for an area vacant of people .

nI return the earlier items to the item box .

nI leave the inn room with the black spear in hand .

nI want to experience the atmosphere of the night so I produce a light spear from the ring without activating . I walk along alleys with my eyes looking up at the night sky .

nI continue searching for vacant land .

nAfter walking for a while long I manage to find an empty space .

nThere is nobody in the area .

n“Nya . ”

nOh? Rollo suddenly jumps off my shoulder .

nShe runs in the empty area .

nWhat is it? I run after Rollo .

nThere is no reaction to a person with either pheromone touch or presence detection .

nHowever, there are multiple magic essence reactions .

nAh, these guys are the reaction .

nThere are no people here, but there are stray cats gathering .

nSitting on a large stump are several characteristic cats .

nThat stump is surrounded by the stray cats .

nIs this a cat convention?

nThe size of the moons in the night sky are close to full .

nThe two moons are lighting up the figures of the cat brightly enough that the light sphere is unnecessary .

nEven though Rollo and I came here, the cats are not upset .

nIn several places, I can hear the cats rumbling together…

nThe cat’s eyes are reflecting the moonlight .

nThere are multiple cats with shining eyes, so the sight is a little eerie .

nHowever, there are a lot of cats that do not move, but I decide to take as a sign that 『Rollo is okay here with me』 and decide to watch in silence .

nRollo approaches the middle of the cats .

nIt seems like she wants to participate in the cat convention .

nWhen Rollo joins them, the noise suddenly stops .

nThe moment it becomes quiet, one large cat calls out “Nyaa!” to the moon and gets down from the stump .

nArya, it is leaving the vacant lot with unhurried movements . Some of the cats from the gathering leave to follow the large cat .

nSuccessively, the young cats on the stump cry out one at a time, then go down in the same way and leave . Some of the cats continue to follow .

nThe cats sitting importantly on the stump seem to be leaders .

nThe last cat to remain on the stump is an old hermit like cat with long whiskers .

nThe hermit cat cries out to the remaining cats and gets down from the stump .

nLike the other leader cats, I expect it to leave, put it approaches Rollo to greet her .

nAnd, Rollo and the hermit cat rub their cheeks together .

nCat greetings . This is cute and interesting .

nRollo is rubbing her cheeks against the old big cat .

nOnce the old cat finishes greeting Rollo, it abruptly turns its face to the side and separates from her .

nThe remaining cats watch the hermit cat in silence .

nThe figure of the stray cats disappears .

nThe stray cat convention held at the stump seems to have ended .

n“A stray cat convention . Rollo, were you able to meet a friend?”

n“Nya, Nyaan . ”

nRollo calls out two times as if to say 『Nyathing happened』, and rubs her head against my legs .

n“Haha, this fellow . ”

nI pick up such a cute Rollo and cradle in my arms against my chest .

nI burry my face in her fluffy stomach-

nHer fur is soft and her stomach is warm . Fluffy .

nShe has an animal smell to her as well .

nI hear rumbling and smile .

nRollo extends a feeler to my cheeks .

n『Itchy』『Comfortable』 『Like』

nCute feelings are conveyed .

nWithout getting up, I stroke her head as I massage her paw pads .

n“…Now then . I’m going to have some fun here, so you back up Rollo, I’m going to do some experiments . ”

n“Nn, Nya . ”

nRollo answers briefly and then runs behind me .

nFrom the item box, I take out the magic characters .

nI have two magic character books in my hands .

nDark Language Magic: Dark Wall .

nDark Crest Magic: Dark Shackles

nI put one book on the ground, and hold on to the language magic book .

nI begin to read as I feel the mana from the magic characters .

nThis…is it an aria? Generally, reading…I understand it .

nThen, it loses its mana and the book collapses, disappearing .

nIt ends simply . The letter never floated .

n※ Pikon ※ Land Magic Skill Acquired ※

nYosh, I learned it .

nI acquired the crest magic skill as well .

nThe value of my mana and soul will be high .

nIn addition, my current battle occupation is “Dark Magic Spearman,” a high ranked job of the magic user system .

nSo, it is more likely to combine with higher class magic-related jobs .

nI test it out immediately .

n“…Dark spirit Beruado . With my mana as sustenance, show the power of the dark union, -《Dark Wall》”

nAs soon as I finish the aria .

nI feel some of my mana drain away- then a black wall appears .

nThe jet-black wall looks like a smoke-formed haze that stands out .

nIt is as wide as three people . Its height is almost as high as me .

nAccording to its name, Dark wall, it is a magic wall .

nSince it is done with an aria, is its use limited?

nI am basically the vanguard position .

nIf I became a rear guard, I might use it… although I have no way to know unless such a day comes .

nThe wall simply disappears when I will it to .

nI will learn the other one next .

nI pick up the magic character book from the ground and begin reading .

nI quickly finish reading the magic characters-

nI learn the crest magic, dark shackles .

nIt ends simply this time,

nJust like the last one . The floating magic characters flying into my head only happens with ancient magic characters .

nThe book I have finished reading turns to dust .

nThis is the crest magic I remember Kuna using in front of the prison .

nThe one that creates dark shackles .

nFirst, I will try it on my foot .

nI am building the magic formation . I complete the magic formation I learned .

n《Dark Shackles》

nThe moment I think that .

nBlack shackles appear around both of my feet .

nShackles restrict both of my feet a sound like a clapperboard .

nDangerous-will they break? I activate to break the shackles .

nPutting power in my legs, I move to break them .

nThe black shackle snap and break, but the skin and meat on my legs in cut a thousand times, Iteeeeeeee! Blood gushes out .

nThe wound closes and heals immediately but pain is pain .

nPerhaps, these shackles…they might be strengthened by how much mana you use .

nI also hurt my wrist when I broke Kuna’s shackles, but they were stronger this time .

n-Mou, I will stop experimenting on my own body .

nOr should I say, I could will them to “disappear” or be “cancelled”…that was stupid, only settling things with force, I am becoming too muscle-brained .

nWell, it hurt, but the thing I am curious about is the item box .

nThe thing I will look at next is the item box itself .

nI am curious about the “◆” in the menu too, first I will press the “person mark” next to “storage . ”

nI push the person mark and it clicks .

nThe moment I push it, the disk on the surface of the item box begins to move .

nThe small jagged flame decoration around the outside begins to turn counter-clock wise, the projections rise from the center of the disk .

nWhat? Green light shines from directly above the projections in a transforming octagon .

nWhen I touch the green window, I can feel it .

n-I grasp the window .

nOoh, this, is this octagon unrestricted .

nI pull my hands to the side and the window grows bigger too .

nThe window seems to be independent, it can separate from the item box bracelet on my right wrist .

nA handprint mark is indicated on the window .

nAm I supposed to put my hand there?

nIs it an authentication system?

nI remember making the first character .

nI place both hands on the hand prints .

nThen, characters different from the one I am use to seeing in this world appear in the window .

nFirst, since I can understand it I will read it all .

n“《Na Palm Do Fodo Kalim》”

nThat moment, the shining light rays extend from the protrusions on the bracelet to my head .

n-Brain Waves and Thought Waves of Target Test Body, Space-time Attribute Confirmed, Voice Confirmation Terminate .

nA confirmation check begins .

n-Target Test Body confirmation . New Na Palm Force Integration in New Kalim Confirmation . Security Released .

n-New Kalim registered, former capacity increased, last eruniumu mass entered in terminal reset and previous key assignment in terminal by user data reset .

n-Continue? Y

/N

nThis appears .

nThat data disappears, it looks like .

nThere was a person who was registered to it in the past .

nMa, if it cannot be used without me registering then I will choose yes here, though it is disappointing that the other data disappears .

nI click “Y”

n-Completed . New key registration complete .

n-It will be keyed to your own voice and thoughts in the future .

n-《Fodo One Kalim》starting up-

nWhen the characters disappear, as sound like a vacuum tube comes from the window and it changes .

nAnd, a strange deformed avatar appears in the window .

nAn alien with four eyes, it is the image of a mysterious character .

nThe whole forehead has a wide mysterious design .

nWhat is this alien civilization Na Palm Integration Force?

nIs this item box a system for officers with the title “Kalim?”

nThere are some symbol characters in the upper left that I cannot distinguish .

nI do not understand them, but they seem to be usable so I use them .

nAnd, the right hand of the avatar character and at the left hand there are two __ __ .

nThis is like a game .

nPerhaps…

nWhen I touch the right hand “__ ” the name magic sword Bitou is displayed .

nThe __ blank on the left hand is the same .

nThis magic sword, it is the one from the item box .

nAssuming I can register a weapon in both hands, I can summon weapons .

nI try to summon the magic sword Bitou in my right hand as a trial .

n-Equip magic sword Bitou in right hand? Y

/ N

nNaturally, I choose Y .

nThen, as I thought…

nThe magic sword Bitou is grasped in my right hand .

nMoreover, the sword is already drawn .

nThe picture of the avatar has changed and a sword is grasped in its right hand .

nAmazing . I can register items in both of my hands with the item box .

nThis is like a shortcut registration in a game .

nI raise the magic sword in my right hand and swing it down .

nThe magic bastard sword is longer than the average sword, and as light as it was before .

nThis is the real deal .

nHowever, do I have to push storage to return it?

nMaybe…

nAs a test, I try saying “Return to Box” while concentrating on the magic sword Bitou, and the magic sword suddenly disappears from my right hand .

nOoh, it worked

n“Magic Sword, Come . ”

nWhen I try to assert my will it suddenly in my right hand again .

nOooh, this is convenient . I will test this next with the black spear .

nI put the black spear in the item box and check the __ on the right hand so it is displayed .

nAs I expected, Tanza Spear is added under Magic Sword Bitou .

nI register to tanza spear in the right hand __ of the alien avatar this time .

n-Equip tanza spear in right hand? Y

/ N

nI choose Y .

nI register the magic sword Bitou in my left hand the same way .

n-Equip Magic Sword Bitou in left hand? Y

/ N

nAs before, I choose Y .

nThus, A spear is pictured in the right hand of the deformed alien avatar and a sword is shown in its left . The black spear is also grasped in my right hand and the magic sword Bitou is in my left .

nI will the weapons to temporarily “Return” to storage .

nThis is easy . They return in an instant…

nAh, I should test if it changes depending on the situation .

nI begin to experiment .

nWith the window closed and my hand held out I try to will “Right hand weapon, come . ” A black spear appears below my palm, and naturally, the black spears falls to the ground due to gravity .

nFurthermore, when I try to will “Return to Box” or “Weapon, come . ” the black spear stays on the ground .

nIt seems it is not so convenient .

nHowever, it does work even if I only have one finger touching it .

nI try one thing after the other .

nThinking only “weapon, come . ” a weapon appears in my right hand .

nEven willing “Weapon, come . ” while concentrating on my “left hand” to make it appear in my left hand .

nIs this because I am right handed?

n“Spear, come . ” (TL: Spear I choose you!)

n“Sword” “Spear”

nI try doing it with those simple images .

nWill they appear if I just will it strongly in my head?

nAnd, I try to use it with the “distorted mana hand” from the guidance moji skill .

nWith empty hands, I will “Weapon, come . ” and a spear is summoned into my right hand .

nI dismiss the summoned black spear and return to being empty-handed .

nWhen I will “Weapon, come . ” I get rid of the image of my right hand and instead focus on the , it seems to recognize it as a valid arm and the black spear is held in my .

nI dismiss the black spear and with the image of “sword” the magic sword is help in my .

nSo, it can change depending on this image .

nIt seems unrelated to whether it is registered to the left or right hand .

nThe seems to be close enough to my “right arm . ”

nFrom this I can assume the is no different from a third arm .

nMoreover, it can summon both the spear and sword, adapting to the circumstance .

nHowever, while can hold one of the weapons registered in the left or right slot it seems impossible to use three weapons at the same time with .

nStill, this is a revolution .

nI have become happy, I smile naturally, and my body moves .

nIn the vacant plot illuminated by the moon, I train the spear dance .

nStab- , Stab – .

nAgain, in the middle of the thrust- willing “return to box” as I focus on the weapon grasped in my right hand, the black spear disappears .

nI shift to a low posture while swinging the magic sword in my left hand to the side .

nRotating my body round and round, I advance .

nThe moment I will “Spear, come,” the black spear arrives in my right hand in a flash .

nIt works fine with high-speed movements .

nAgain, with a smirk, I dismiss the magic sword in my left hand .

nMoving my free hand to the black spear, I change to a two-handed spear .

nI suddenly stand up from my slouched posture to stop my turning body as I lose the interval .

n-I support my body on one leg in the pose of a crane .

nI extend the black spear forward at an angle with my upper body .

nWith a pause like in yoga, I stop moving .

nFrom there, I cross my feet to kick away from the ground-

nChecking the feeling of the summoned black spear, I move it while turning the black spear in the form of a fan, using both of my arms and the muscles of my upper body .

nWalking while holding the black spear, I play with the grip of the metal bar and the black spear spins round and round intensely .

nI am moving it, but the black spear looking like a living black snake .

n“The snake is moving on its own . ”

nHowever, the item box has such a function .

nWhen a weapon is registered, I can reliably call it to “come” to my hand .

nWith such thoughts, I grasp the black spear in both hands, then fold a knee while thrusting at the moon in the sky .

nFrom my crouched stance, I stretch out my leg like a spring .

nHolding the spear above my head as I spring powerfully into the air, I shift into a posture with both arms stretched behind my head .

nThe moonlight illuminates me as I fly through the sky .

nI nose dive the ground with the force of gravity and it feels like time slows down .

nI see the earth below me .

nMy shadow is below me .

nFacing my shadow- I fling the black spear against the ground . The ground is gouged and split open by the shock, and dirt flies out from the impact site .

nMy hands are a little numb . It looks like this technique will work .

nThe weapon is different, but it feels like the using the drawn killing sword at the end of the Tokugawa period .

nRemembering such manga, the training ends .

nStill, I want to check the item box .

nNext is the “◆” mark .

n

n◆ Please place eleonium stone here .

n

nThere is a huge ◆ mark on the left side .

nThe characters “Please place eleonium stone here” is displayed .

n

n◆：Total Amount of Stored Eleonium：0

n

nReward : Hangar 15, Record Storage Unlocked .

nNecessary Eleonium Stones : 100: Incomplete

nReward, Hangar 20, Kaleidoscope Unlocked .

nNecessary Eleonium Stones : 200 : Incomplete

nReward, Hangar 25, Dimension Scan Function Equip .

n？？？？？？

n？？？？？？

n？？？？？？

n

nOn the right is a table demanding eleonium in amounts of 50 or 100 eleonium stones .

nAlong with the incomplete things, I think I need to put eleonium stones in the ◆ mark on the left side .

nIf I gather eleonium stones and get the indicated number, the capacity of the hangar is increasedas a reward, a record storage is unlocked as well…

nA kaleidoscope is available as a reward, and items seem to be possible rewards .

nBut, what is an eleonium stone?

nGoing by the shape of the rhombic mark is it a diamond-shaped jewel?

nA mystery .

nI do not understand it now, so I tap the rhombic mark on the menu and turn off the eleonium indicator .

nThen, there is a *buuun* sound I return to the normal item list screen,

nThis smart phone area seems to operate the same way as normal game menus .

nNow then, I guess I will return to the inn .

n◇◆◇◆

nAt the same time, several kilometers southwest of 【Fort City Hector】, in a certain building-

n“I kept you waiting…Larai . ”

nShoulder’s dropping, a thin running man enters the room . His shoulder has a black wing tattoo and his stylish mustache stands out, his arm is injured .

nWhile staring at that puzzling behavior, the woman dressed in an ochre robe named Larai responds .

n“Karii, welcome back . But, you were violent in an extremely “showy” manner…”

n“Un . There is a reason . ”

n“You right arm…a master like Karii was injured?”

nThe thin running man Karii moves a little to shake his arm, and his forehead wrinkles in a manner that suggests that they are suppressing the pain .

n“-Aah, something happened . Even though it looks like this, I already took a recovery potion, so the wound is worse that I had thought . ”

n“Therefore? Do you have no high-class recovery potion?”

nKarii begins to smile and talk .

n“Kuku, nonsense . You see this wound? It would be a waste to heal it immediately . ”

n“…You’re as much as a hentai as ever . But, the job you should have carried out quietly for the shadow wings was found out? Many people saw a man with a “black wing tattoo” escape loudlyfrom the office of 【Thorny Tail】”

n“Aah, it couldn’t be helped . Something outside my “calculations” happened . ”

nHearing Karii say outside his “calculations,” something she is unfamiliar hearing, Larai’s eye brows twitch in response .

n“Outside your calculations…heh, for you to say such a thing . Should I have participated too…”

nLarai has a smile full of cynicism .

n“Iya, I guess so? With what I showed you, that even I was ‘cut’ with my skill, isn’t it because of my partner? Even if ‘Thousand-Thunder Larai’ was there I don’t think the outcome would have changed . ”

nThe woman called Larai’s eyes open wide . Those eyes have a faint pattern of yellow lines on the surface .

n“…You’re curious about the ’emergency,’ right? But, isn’t it strange? I never heard that such an opponent existed from Alphard . I had no ‘prior knowledge . '”

n“Even with his ability to foresee things, he did not see this . ”

n“Fuun, So the person Karii fought is safe? Will he return here?”

n“It should be fine . The person I fought was killing the members of 【Thorny Tail】 . I fought him because it was my job . It became unbearable and I did fight him selfishly this time and this is how it turned out . ”

nLarai looks puzzled .

n“Eh? Really? Such a strong opponent is appetizing, I thought they would be part of a dark guild . ”

n“Iya, at least, the strong opponent who defeated me wasn’t from 【Thorny Tail】 . That fellow killed ‘Raize of Two Swords’ and ‘Kuna of Darkness . '”

nLarai leans forward with a clear expression of surprise .

n“Eeeeh? Isn’t that something amazing…”

n“True . Oh, fortunately 【Thorny Tail】 was destroyed smoothly . By the way, you know I killed the boss ‘Dominguez’ properly? So, my job is completed…”

n“So…a strong opponent…”

nLarai does not hear the end of Karii’s story, instead she muttering quietly with a wicked smile on her face .

n“Haa…You want to hear about that person? Are you already having delusions? That spearman…”

n“-n? The opponent was a spearman? Fufu…”

nLarai turns to the side and the hem of her rob spins around .

nShe begins to dance happily .

n“-Ahahaha, I want to meet that man too…”

nLarai smiles with a joyful dimpled smile and bursts into laughter .

nShe removes her thin hands from her robe, and begins to move her ten fingers that are all in gloves nimbly over her pleated skirt like she is playing the piano .

nHer drumming finger tips begins to produce crackling lightning .

n“Larai…such dangerous delusions, aren’t all the black wings supposed to return to 【Tandart】? I think I heard the leader is waiting too, and after crushing Gaigal, there is a big job in labyrinth city . ”

n“…Naked…spear…gufu . ”

nLarai ignores Karii’s words .

nHer face holds an expression of ecstasy .

nThe pattern that was only faint in her eyes up till now, are showing a clear yellow magic formation that shines strangely .

nAs she plays by herself small amounts of electricity discharge from her fingers, completely entering her world of delusions .

nKarii stares at Larai, while squinting, not again…as if to say so he lets out a sigh with an amazed face .
