Chapter 68: Communication with Yukurishisu-san and end of war
The hornet poured her magic into the skull of the skeleton soldier and get away immediately. The skull exploded from the inside and was smashed into small fragments. That's the most reliable method to defeat a skeleton soldier. Therefore it can be said that the attack of my hornet is very effective. The other skeleton soldiers who came near are also blown up by my hornets one after another.
“Nioi Nioi Nioi!!!”
“...” Purupuru
Before that, Ruu twists a flame chain around and burn off the zombies. My nose doesn't work very well when I approach. Well, I don't want to approach here from the smell. The place where Ruu was as if a typhoon passed through because all trees around were cut. Usually Lime would be cut and hit, but I think she protected her skin with magic. She seems like a beautiful and fearful war maiden when she displayed her abilities and scatter flesh and blood around her. Well, normal people would just be afraid of her.
Several days later the knight order has been gathered together in the fortress and the reinforcements from the other country has also arrived, but there was no contact from Yukurishisu-san yet. If I don't return to the academy slowly, I wont be in time for the new term.... I want to hunt more in this forest...if possible I want to come tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Ah, the reinforcement from the other country was Regitto-san again. The first knight order who were the elite had no work. It would be troublesome if by an emergency they wouldnt be able to move. "Regitto-san handed me various gifts and said "For the principal, too". Why does he give it to me...a cane from the elf territory, an ornament made in the cave country and a luxury liquor were handed, that would be a problem! No, it′s handed neatly!
I was also advancing in the forest along the road today...and devil beasts tried to circle around us again. Zombies and skeleton soldiers...treants must also be here. Because they are few, Rin and Shadow-san should be enough.
The ghost that came to me is knocked down by the talisman I threw out. Damage seems to pass through a ordinary talisman. When earth pillars stuck out and are exchanged, as soon as there is an opening I would throw a talisman to finish them off. It is a one shot if a ghost who has paper endurance cant defend.
"This place is the Treant's forest. However aren't there a lot of ghost type monsters?”
"However, when they appear they go all out. There is a variety of devil beasts”
“...” ZuruZuru
“Oh, are treants also there? Shadow-san Lime has brought the treants here”
Lime dragged the treants with both hands to me intentionally. Shadow-san who has returned here beat the treants. Even if I'm drunk it is understood, that she wasn't damaged.... Well, she was a little excited after that battle. Even if I don't pay attention, Lime should have understood it.
"Although I thought the devil beasts here are strong...there are a lot of ghost type monsters, so it isn't really a good hunting ground for Shadow-san”
“Burururuu”
“However it is okay when treants appear...haa, again”
Shadow-san′s spirit sonar has caught more than one reaction. Well, there are few this time. It already is a feeling that the ghost type monsters will start to jump out from somewhere. If that is a game, then I think that the monsters will appear from midair suddenly.
“...” Purupuru
"At the same time, are the treants beginning their action.... Please completely move together with revelation. Ruu, how is it?”
“Uuh, particularly it doesn't smell”
“Are zombies excluded? With this speed...because ghosts are considerably slow on foot, are they skeleton soldiers?"
“Then, we keep the treants occupied”
“Ou, have a nice time”
Ruu and the others crashed into the treants, while only Rin remains beside me. Did Shadow-san also went to the treants to level up only a little.
"Well, there is a good number of skeleton soldiers...hornets, please”
The talisman flares up in the air and becomes a fire hornet. Although I just still made it, there was no large activity in this forest. Rock snakes are difficult to use, if it isn't a open place....
Slipping through between trees, skeletons appeared. I got on Rin and we crashed into the skeletons. Rin is kicking and stamping on the skeletons, while I throw heavy fire bees out. It is possible to use the heavy fire bees, because the distance is short. The skeletons are armed, but the heavy fire bees can still make damage even through a shield.
“...Bururuu!”
“Eh? Wooww!?”
Suddenly a arrow flew towards me and I create a wall as defense in a hurry. Dangerous...if Rin didnt warn me, it would have gone through my head. I looked at the direction from where the arrow came and there was a skeleton with a bow in its hands.
I throw some light fire bees and they blow off the skeleton with the bow. Even if I throw out many small ones, I wont lose a heavy bee. I think before the bees reach an arrow was shot...and one couldnt defend. Thanks
"As for the skeletons...good, they are annhilated. Ruu, have you guys finished?”
After we finished knocking down the skeletons, I tried to go to Ruu′s side.... Even if I see, I know that Treants are between Ruu and us. Hey Hey, have they passed through Ruu′s attack? Is the number of Treants greater than I thought....
“Bururu, Burururu!”
“Were you surrounded? Were there so much treants?”
“...Buru”
"In fact, even if I'm not here...while we are fighting, when do they even come? Shit, it was done”
In that case, Ruu and the others might be surrounded. Looking around...they don't seem to have a mind to hide any more. Many Treants approach little by little. In this way, we have been surrounded....
“As for Rin and I, If we seriously rush in then maybe we will be able to join up with Ruu bunch right ?
“Bururuu..."
“Thats harsh, even the other side is circled. Well, they'll be okay.... Do we charge”
“Buru”
I scatter talismans with both hands into the air and when they ignite simultaneosly they became fire bees. A large crowd of bees appears in the sky and they shine brightly in this dark forest.
“I guess...it's hard to take out this number. Maybe it was good, that I made light fire bees.... Now, that they are taken out, it would be a waste to not use them...full fire!”
The bees spread out and charge at the Treants who surrounded us and a explosive flame mushroom blooms. The remaining fire bees chase the treants and became a bomb. The enclosure has collapsed with surprising swiftness.
“Oops...did I overdo it a little?”
“...Bururu”
Sparks scatter from the burning Treants and involve the surrounding trees. It wont become a sea of fire...now, because it is quite moist here!
“Temporaily it seems dangerous here, so lets assist Ruu and the others”
“Buruu?”
“Certainly, is it okay. Because it's a live tree"
“Buru..."
Rin′s stare is painful.... I couldn't help it that we were enclosed. Hey, let's quickly join with Ruu′s group! I also want to know what happened on the other side!
We avoided the burning Treants and went straight to Ruu′s group. In a little advanced place, we encountered Ruu and the others who had come here.
“...!” Purupuru!
“That's enough. How did you do, Lime?”
“.......!” Purupuru, Purururun!
“Roar? Ah, I did that. Therefore it is safe and fire bees talismans has been just used fairly"
"It's good then...however, what was with those treants?"
“It isn't likely to have aimed. They are smarter than their appearance shows. Ah, Shadow-san, how was the other side? I was still surviving fairly...hee, there was something strange. Possibly, were they a high-ranking kind or subspecies?"
No matter how smart they are, it is difficult for that number to take action where command was able to be taken. This would let the mind of devil beasts hurt.
"Well, there probably is no such a monster. Damage was considerably owed...and the fire bees were concentrating only there. Considerably I didnt aim..."
With this assault, Shadowsan should have overwhelmed a good number of Treants. A large amount of fire bees have been used.
“The talismans have been used excellently, so let’s return already for today. Shadow-san, you can go already. You can absorb,while I walk”
I have to replenish it, when we return...I have to write properly or the paper and ink becomes useless. Well with Shadow-san′s help its easier than before. Then, shall we return quickly.
I who has finished dinner in the evening of this day and drawing the fire bees talisman now had the magic tool for long-distance notification which I got from Yukurishisu-san handed over by Shadow-san who was cutting paper next to me after she took it out of her body. Oh, did the communication finally come? I who has received the magic tool hold it to my ear for now. If doing it in this way, Spirit-san′s branch connects selfishly.
『Hello』Yukurishisu
『It has been a while, Yukurishisu-san』Tsuchio
『...Since the hidden message?』Yukurishisu
『Yes』 Tsuchio
『That's right, I wanted you not to think badly about it and doubt me』Yukurishisu
『I'm not worrying about it. With that, are the preparation complete? 』Tsuchio
『Yes, thoroughgoing posture. The strategy is scheduled to begin tomorrow. As for there?』 Yukurishisu
『Here, the preparation are made. We were only waiting for Yukurishisu′s report』Tsuchio
『Was it so, then I′m apologizing to let you wait. Then, can you tell that minister to begin the strategy tomorrow morning?』Yukurishisu
『Understood....Umm, do you really succeed?』Tsuchio
『What, you still doubt me? Cant you believe me?』Yukurishisu
『No, I trust you, but just in case. However, it is more abundant that the revolt fails... 』Tsuchio
『Is it so. As long as I′m alive in this world, being able to declare absolutely, there is only a handful of people. Destiny always means, that to get a chance you need to stand on your on feet. Fearing that, it will be success or not. The only thing we can do is to lower the possibility of failure as far as possible. If all hands are carried out and it still fails, it might be a destiny with this name...』Yukurishisu
『I have you guide me through your continent. Life is indispensable, therefore you shouldn't die even if you fail』Tsuchio
『Of course, that's my intention. Tsuchio, I will show you many great places of the empire. Thinking about the sightseeing plan, I can't waste it』Yukurishisu
『No, lets postpone it. The revolt is caused, Revolt!』Tsuchio
『Thanks to an excellent subordinate, I have spare time. In case of these kind of things, I only had to play a little more in the king capital...』
Eh...the revolt will succeed with such a easy mood? Why do I worry so much.
『Is, is it safe? Did you confirm that there is no hole?』Tsuchio
『It is safe...the magic seem to cut slowly. Let's talk more when the revolt succeeded』Yukurishisu
『Eh, wait, Yukurishisu-san!? Is it really safe!!!』Tsuchio
My shout is also empty, because the communication had already been cut. It probably is okay.... Though there seems to be an excellent subordinate...well, there is somehow no reason to worry so much. For the time being, I′m going to tell Osnyl-san. Whether this fortress also becomes a battlefield, shall I return to the academy tomorrow....
＜Yukurishisu′s side＞
I put the magic tool away into my breast pocket, after I cut the communication with Tsuchio. Freetime...maa, it wasn't a mistake. All the preparations have already been finished and I only need to give the sign for the strategy to start.
“Milady, there is still magic remaining..."
"It is okay, my resolution seems to become duller when speaking too much"
Somehow I can relax when I talk with Tsuchio. Although an excessive tension becomes a fetter, a moderate tension pushes up the state to the highest one. It is just fine like this.
“...Sorry for troubling you so far, Woro” Yukurishisu
"That's so, milady was mischievous for a long time. When I heard that you rebelled for the first time, I thought you finally became a delinquent. Perhaps, 90 years ago” Worodonis
“As usual, you only remember what shouldn't be remembered.... And because you don't forget necessary things, therefore you′re here" Yukurishisu
“That's naturally, because I serve Milady as a butler. I have the obligation to record Milady′s growth" Worodonis
"Th, These kind of things when do you apply it!"
“Of course since your birth”
Good grief...this butler. He is capable, but is more unpleasant than that....
“Haa, it is assumed to be a gradual cross-examination.... How is the preparation going?" Yukurishisu
“"As Milady said, everything is completed thanks to this excellent subordinate. When you'd lack a voice, it can be carried out immediately" Worodonis
“It is alright, it begins at sunrise. I challenge my elder brother to a duel fair and square from the front” Yukurishisu
“...Milady, is it good by one?" Worodonis
“What?” Yukurishisu
It's unusual for Woro to say such a thing. Normally he speaks frankly.
“It is said that Milady got acquaintance with a kid named Tsuchio on the other side. Can you really trust him? There is a possibility that he conspires with the kingdom and plot against Milady..." Worodonis
“Ah, you don't need to worry then. I applied see through magic properly. When there is a true meaning separately, he should be catch on that. And..." Yukurishisu
“And?" Worodonis
“Tsuchio is a human who loves demons. At any rate, a demon was seen in that human country and he is loving a slime and an unicorn as formal as an individual" Yukurishisu
“And...judged from the side, he is abnormal” Worodonis
“Yes, he is abnormal. Therefore, I trust him” Yukurishisu
The words are ordinary, but everyone takes it as a joke. However, he who thought about things in demon's standpoint believed. When I can't meet him...this revolt would be postponed for 10 years. When I'm devoting myself to that continent invasion, the best protection of the king becomes scarce. I cannot miss this period.
"Butler of Zakurion empire first princess, Worodonis from the Werewolf race!”
“HA!!”
Worodonis kneels down in front of me who stands up from the chair. This is my own room in the royal palace which is a solid castle, but it′s easy to capture from the inside.
"I take the emperor's throne"
“Thats your main intention”
Now, elder brother. Risking your life for the throne, let's fight fully!
Certain summer of a certain year, the allied Forces of four countries assaulted the demons army. A large-scale strategy in which the first knight orders of each country and the heroes of a different world have put an end to the war with a victory for the allied forces side. When the demons army withdraw from our continent, we were able to liberate the northern zone that had been occupied for a long time by them. At that time, it was decided by Osnyl-san who is the military minister, that the demons who couldnt left the continent will be surrounded and made captives. It was prohibited to kill or hurt the captives.
After that a messenger from the demons army visit. Historically, it was the first time to negotiate with a demon. And the existence of Zakurion empire is announced at that place. The creatures who exist in our continent are named devil beasts and the people from Yukurishisu′s continent are going to be called demons. From the negotiation with the messenger, it was decided that the captives are exchanged for the resources of Zakurion empire and that peace was made between the Zakurion empire and the allied forces. This period means the end of the war between humans and demons that continued for a long time.
