Chapter 172: Worthy Rival

[Notify all units! The Strongest Sword Lior is in front of the main gate! I repeat. The Strongest Sword Lior has come to reinforcements!] (Sirius)

As my [Call] unfold the details about Lior-Jiisan’s look, an enormous shock ran throughout the models. Some puzzled if Jii-san actually got here, however they gave the impression to be satisfied despite the fact that they didn’t prefer it by his shout and destruction sounds that reverberated greater than monsters.

“Hahaha! Isn’t this all-you-can-slash occasion! Nurryaaa—!” (Lior)

And within the sky, the excessive rank dragons, Mejia and the three dragons, have been pulling down monsters attacking from the sky one after one other.

[Let’s go! Show our power to those who can only fly!] (Mejia)

[As you say!] (Eye)

[No matter how many of them.] (Kuva)

[Don’t be our enemy!] (Rai)

I didn’t count on Jii-san to be right here, however the battle had modified dramatically as a consequence of their look. Because of the lowered variety of monsters within the sky, our burden had been enormously lowered, and we had sufficient room to breathe slowly. Within the meantime, whereas I used to be rehydrating and recovering mana, the one blue dragon among the many excessive rank dragons who didn’t take part within the battle, Xenodora, slowly descended towards my course.

“Is it coming right here!? Everybody, be ready!” (Beast King)

“Please wait! That blue dragon is a buddy. Don’t assault him. He in all probability comes to speak.” (Sirius)

The Beast King instinctively issued a command, however I rushed in to cease him. So, I managed to forestall Xenodora from being attacked. Irrespective of how individuals had heard that he was an ally beforehand, that response can be inevitable if an enormous dragon approached in entrance of them. Xenodora gently landed in entrance of us after figuring out that there was no hazard, however then, I observed he had a younger man on his again.

“May or not it’s Beawolf?” (Sirius)

“Sure, it’s me. It has been some time.” (Beowolf)

He was the son of a Sword Grasp, and he was the younger man who needed to be my disciple after combating on the Combating Competition. Absolutely, he stated that he would be part of me after assembly with Lior-Jiisan with a purpose to ask him to inform the top of his father, however he appeared safely with Jii-san meant that…

“No, I gained’t say that… you’re high-quality.” (Sirius)

“Sure… Nicely, there are a whole lot of issues happening.” (Beowulf)

Beowulf’s expression was considerably tough when he jumped from the again of Xenodora, however the refreshing look that I noticed a yr in the past was nearly gone. It appeared the phrase ‘wild’ suited him, however was this as a result of he had been along with Jii-san? Anyhow, I might perceive that with out taking an excessive amount of guess. Nonetheless, I felt relieved that his character didn’t change a lot from the best way he smiled and talked to me.

“Though that is the state of affairs, however I’m glad to see you once more. Lior-san made so many detours to the purpose that he couldn’t sustain with everybody…” (Beowulf)

“I perceive it’s arduous, however why have been you all using on the dragon’s again?” (Sirius)

Did they observe us all the way down to the village of Winged Folks? Even when it was a spot the place unusual individuals keep away from as a result of hazard, it was fairly potential for a battle maniac like him. After I requested in regards to the backstory, Hokuto got here down from the again of the three dragons, and Zenodora, who had modified from dragon kind to human kind, briefly defined the state of affairs.

“On the best way right here, Hokuto discovered them strolling on the bottom. He instructed me that they knew one another and we should always deliver them with us.” (Zenodora)

“I see. Did you see Beowulf? It was a great determination, Hokuto.” (Sirius)

“Woof!” (Hokuto)

As I stroked Hokuto’s head since he had been operating for greater than half a day, Zenodora slowly reached out whereas taking a look at my face, so I shook his hand.

“As soon as once more… it has been a very long time, Sirius.” (Zenodora)

“Thanks for coming, Zenodora-sama.” (Sirius)

“It’s a buddy’s name. There’s extra. I need to repay the favor for saving Karen and educating us how you can prepare dinner. You don’t have to carry again.” (Zenodora)

“Thanks very a lot. Even so, I didn’t count on 5 of you’ll come right here.” (Sirius)

“The reality is Mejia wasn’t there, however… properly, I’ll clarify that later.” (Zenodora)

Anyhow, they have been 5 strongest higher rank dragons among the many dragons. Wanting from the sidelines, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to suppose that they have been coming to assault the nation. In fact, I felt dangerous for involving the struggle which had nothing to do with them, nevertheless it appeared that Zenodora didn’t care an excessive amount of due to their race’s mind-set was too distinction, so I simply settle for the assistance obediently.

“So, ought to we scale back the variety of monsters within the sky?” (Zenodora)

“Sure, please. I’m going round to help the bottom models.” (Sirius)

“Hmm, you may go away the sky to us.” (Zenodora)

With a reassuring smile, Zenodora reappeared as a dragon, and he leaped into the battlefield of the sky the place Mejia and the three dragons fought. Now the enemies from sky can be high-quality for some time, however how in regards to the floor? I believed that Jii-san was rampaging a lot that the burden on Reus and others would have been lowered.

“You’re too far forward, Jii-chan! Clear the best way a bit extra earlier than you exit!” (Reus)

“Nurryyaaaa!” (Lior)

“Strongest Sword-dono! Please do the approach earlier towards the east aspect! There are too many monsters stick on the wall.” (Albert)

“I would like extra! I need to keep right here some extra!” (Lior)

…Sadly, Jii-san was already uncontrolled. He destroyed monsters one after one other by merely charging in locations the place enemies have been gathered. By the best way, he didn’t use the approach he confirmed when he descended to the bottom. Apparently, the psychological burden of Reus had elevated quite the opposite as a result of Jii-san was inefficient in group battles, and he moved round with out contemplating the cooperation with allies. Anyhow, he wielded his sword with intuition and it was a rampage worthy of being known as a berserker.

“Isn’t that Jii-san has no distinction when doing one thing like this earlier than? I believe he appears a bit calmer than earlier than. Beowulf, are you aware the explanation because you have been with him?” (Sirius)

“That’s in all probability as a result of he met Hokuto and Zenodora.” (Beowulf)

When Hokuto found Beowulf and Jii-san, and made a contact with them, Jii-san apparently drew his sword instantly whereas laughing on the look of robust males. Then, Zenodora and others continued to seem and Jii-san’s pleasure reached the climax. Nevertheless, after they defined the circumstances, he was pressured to surrender his sword. So, to place it merely, was he venting the frustration since he couldn’t struggle robust males?

“It was actually troublesome to cease Lior-san. After I instructed him that it will be troublesome for Sirius-san if Hokuto was late, he lastly gave in.” (Beowulf)

Maybe, it’s not due to me, nevertheless it’s as a result of Emilia is right here.” (Sirius)

“I gained’t deny that. I’ll go away the detailed story later. I’ll struggle now.” (Beowulf)

“Are you positive? There’s no want so that you can struggle, and the bottom is fairly intense proper now, you recognize?” (Sirius)

“Your disciple, Reus, is combating. There’s no means I gained’t struggle. Plus… I’m used to it already.” (Beowulf)

Used to struggle, was it? With out having a correct cause, his phrases made me persuade. It may be higher to ask him to ingesting desk later and listened to his complaints about Jii-san.

“Nicely then, I’m going!” (Beowulf)

“Oi!? That Nii-chan is…” (?)

After passing by the troopers round him, Beowulf jumped off the wall with out hesitation. He descended to the bottom through the use of the monsters climbing the wall as a foothold. Beowulf, who safely landed on the bottom, slashed down the incoming monsters along with his two swords and headed towards Reus.

It’s not solely his expertise, his judgment on the state of affairs has improved. He appears to be like a lot stronger than earlier than, isn’t it?” (Sirius)

He gave the impression to be dropping one thing as a result of he went by way of difficulties whereas associating with Jii-san, however he appeared to achieve one thing else. Though I solely checked out him normally, not solely the power that I felt was inadequate earlier than, I might see that the velocity and the swordsmanship have been additionally refined. Reus additionally had improved his expertise, however it will be troublesome to beat Beowulf now. It was not possible now, so I seemed ahead to the mock battle between them.

[Do not relax! The battle isn’t over yet! While the reinforcements are struggling, each unit must reorganize and check your equipment!] (Cayenne)

“We are going to try this as properly! Gathered the injured and take turns checking your gear!” (Beast King)

When the commander, Cayenne, gave the order, the Beast King was additionally dashing to reorganize his total unit and confirmed the injury. I used to be wanting on the floor whereas checking my gear. Then, the Beast King, who had completed giving order, approached me.

“I didn’t count on that the Strongest Sword and the dragons are the reinforcements. As all the time, you shock me.” (Beast King)

“Truly, I additionally didn’t count on the Strongest Sword. Nevertheless… that is going to alter the tide of battle loads.” (Sirius)

“Aah. I can see hope.” (Beast King)

Having recovered mana and stamina, I known as the Beast King whereas taking a look at Emilia who was observing Jii-san on the bottom.

“I’ll go to the bottom as soon as I’m prepared. I’ll relaxation for a bit.” (Sirius)

“Hmm. It’s good to go all out.” (Beast King)

For the reason that Beast King understood my intention, he agreed. Then, I went to Emilia whereas observing Jii-san’s motion.

—

— Reus —

On the time when our stamina nearly depleted and for the sign to withdraw to be issued, Zenodora and others, whom Aniki known as, arrived as reinforcements. The position of Zenodora and others, who might fly freely within the sky, have been great. The monsters within the sky, which have been troublesome to beat, have been being defeated one after one other. Because of them, it appeared that issues have been simpler for Aniki, Marina and Nee-chan. Alternatively, we didn’t anticipate that the Strongest Sword… Lior-Jiichan to come back. Although Jii-chan was already fairly outdated, this cheerful outdated man would destroy monsters as quick as Zenodora-san’s group, however… to be sincere, it wasn’t an excellent state of affairs.

“Nuhahaha! There are various monsters this time!” (Lior)

“Everybody, get again! Don’t get any nearer to the Strongest Sword!” (Reus)

“Get away from that Jii-san! You’ll get caught if you happen to don’t!” (Keith)

Since Jii-chan was on rampage, we have been additionally nearly get caught. I attempted to get away shortly so as to not get caught, however I nonetheless couldn’t really feel relieved. Since Jii-chan charged to locations with many monsters and swung his sword, the shock waves from his swing flew from behind the monsters as some monsters prevented his assaults. Truly, Keith’s and my hair had been lower a number of instances.

“Say, Reus. Is that particular person actually an ally?” (Keith)

“…Perhaps.” (Reus)

“What!? Reply me extra clearly!” (Keith)

Even when he requested me, I used to be additionally uncertain. Relatively than saying that he got here to assist, I used to be satisfied that he simply got here as a result of he needed to rampage round.

“Aah… what a superb and delightful swordsmanship. Little doubt about these rumors… I’ve to be taught extra sword methods by all means!” (Julia)

By the best way, Julia gave the impression to be enthusiastic about Jii-chan’s sword methods. Even so, I couldn’t complain since she was reducing monsters that have been approaching, nevertheless it didn’t change even at instances like this. Julia seemed again whereas laughing shyly as if she observed my gaze.

“Please be relieved. Irrespective of how a lot I like the swordsmanship of the Strongest Sword, as a girl, I solely like Reus.” (Julia)

I didn’t perceive, however I might inform that she misunderstood one thing. Whereas fascinated with such a factor, a shock wave from Jii-san’s sword flew once more from the entrance. Keith, who was about get caught, leaped away.

“Uoooh!? That Jii-san is just not wanting right here in any respect. For the reason that Strongest Sword is your instructor, cease him shortly!” (Keith)

“It’s not an issue to cease him. In any case, I’m Aniki’s disciple!” (Reus)

I had known as out to Jii-san many instances earlier than, however he by no means listened. In a way, once we have been in bother with the state of affairs the place the variety of enemies had decreased, we observed that one thing was approaching right here with great momentum. Julia ready herself comparable as me. Then, the one who appeared earlier than us whereas we slashed monsters one after one other whereas operating forward was… a person who wielded two swords freely. It was loads totally different than earlier than, however the two swords that appeared to flutter have been acquainted.

“Very long time no see, Reus. It appears the state of affairs is a bit troublesome, isn’t it?” (Beowulf)

“Uhm… Be… Be… what’s your identify once more?” (Reus)

“I do know that you’re that form of particular person, however I need you to recollect my identify. It’s me, Beowulf.” (Beowulf)

“Ooh! Sure, it’s you, Beowulf. Very long time no see!” (Reus)

He had a troubled expression, however after I known as his identify, he got here to my aspect with a smile. Julia tilted her head as she realized that Beowulf wasn’t an enemy. So, I briefly launched Beowulf to everybody.

“…In different phrases, Beowulf-dono is Reus’s shut buddy, is it?” (Julia)

“If something, he’s an opponent I ought to defeat. Excuse me, are you a buddy of Reus-kun?” (Beowulf)

“I will probably be Reus’ spouse sooner or later. Anyhow, I’m glad to fulfill a swordsman like Beowulf-dono.” (Julia)

“Good to fulfill you… eh? W-wife!?” (Beowulf)

Julia was taking a look at Beowulf with a refreshing smile. Maybe, she wasn’t solely about him as reinforcement, but in addition his swordsmanship. That… yeah, these eyes stated that she needed to struggle him later. With out understanding it, Beowulf started to get confused by her phrases, however Keith and Albert joined in.

“I’m stunned. You’re a companion of that Jii-san. Are you able to do one thing about him quickly?” (Keith)

“The injury is beginning to come out from our aspect as properly. Is there any approach to cease him?” (Albert)

“Stopping Lior-san… is it?” (Beowulf)

Though he was taking a look at Jii-chan whereas saying that, I felt that it was pointless from the response. Although his eyes weren’t far-off, he was wanting someplace far-off.

“That’s not possible. I’ve been along with him for nearly a yr for a sure cause, however when he will get excited, like now, he by no means stops. I attempted to cease him a couple of instances, however I used to be nearly killed every time.” (Beowulf)

“What the… sorry. It may need been disagreeable after I requested that.” (Albert)

“As I anticipated, do we’ve to withdraw once more?” (Keith)

“However then, the Strongest Sword will probably be surrounded by monsters and ultimately turn out to be exhausted. I would love him to maneuver along with our models even when it just a bit…” (Albert)

We have been taking note of the monsters and Jii-chan’s sword, however we have been additionally fearful about retreating from this place. At that second, a voice from [Echo] rang out that created a sudden change to Jii-chan.

[Ojii-chan!] (Emilia)

“Wha!?” (Lior)

After I was judging Jii-chan’s motion since he had been rampaging, he stopped out of the blue. He, then, seemed on the wall with the momentum that fully ignored the encircling monsters. It was far-off and I couldn’t see properly, however what was in entrance of Jii-chan’s gaze was Nee-chan who was standing on the autumn. After confirming her look, Jii-chan started to shed tears after slicing the encircling monsters immediately.

“O-ooh… Emilia! What a… what a progress. Aren’t you shining!?” (Lior)

Aah, that Jii-chan. As an alternative of taking his eyes off the monsters, he was delighted whereas waving his palms like a toddler. How a lot did he need to see Nee-chan? Whereas everybody was panicking about what was happening, Beowulf and I knew Jii-chan’s character. So, we have been taking a look at him.

“He has been shouting Emilia’s identify over and over, however I didn’t count on he would react like that…” (Beowulf)

“Speaking about her progress… does he see Nee-chan correctly? He in all probability can’t see her properly from right here.” (Reus)

“You idiot! If you happen to take a look at Emilia’s radiance, you’ll know!” (Lior)

From the angle of Lior-Jiichan, Nee-chan gave the impression to be consistently giving lights. I requested Aniki about that, however… he stated one thing that I didn’t perceive. Extra importantly, Jii-chan lastly listened to my phrases. Since seeing Nee-chan made him calmed down a bit, I requested him once more.

“Jii-chan, please use [Break Thrust] that means! It’s fairly pack over there.” (Reus)

“Don’t behave like a spoiled baby, teenager! Charging and slashing with my sword is ‘Single Strike Final Destruction Sword Type’ isn’t it!?” (Lior)

That was actually the reality, however that wasn’t the case now. Even when I might have a dialog with him, nothing would change in any case. Nevertheless… as Jii-chan stated, it wasn’t like me to depend on him. Beowulf additionally got here and the combating potential had elevated. After I tried to make use of a bit further of mana to unleash [Break Thrust], I observed that Aniki stood subsequent to Nee-chan and whispered one thing.

[Ojii-chan. Please do the same technique in that direction. Of course, you can’t damage the wall, alright.] (Emilia)

“Oraaa–!” (Lior)

As quickly as he heard Nee-chan’s voice, he instantly unleashed [Break Thrust]. It hit the monsters on the jap aspect that Nee-chan pointed at, and it blew them away. The ability was ridiculous, even when it was unleashed from the sky…

“Isn’t ‘Single Strike Final Destruction Sword Type’ about charging and slashing?” (Reus)

“It may possibly’t be helped if Emilia asks me. How about that, Emilia!? I’m wonderful, proper!?” (Lior)

As a matter in fact, he disregarded my grievance and waved his hand simply to be praised by Nee-chan. Then, he started to swing his sword to the monsters round him once more. Goodness, he was an outdated man that I bought drained simply by speaking, however he didn’t change in some ways. It was form of nostalgic, or alternatively, it was a reduction. Nevertheless… solely his swordsmanship was totally different. Even when I didn’t prefer it, I understood that he was means stronger than me earlier than this. I believed I used to be catching up the Strongest Sword a bit, however I felt like I used to be getting additional away from him as an alternative of getting nearer.

“However… I’ll undoubtedly surpass him. Simply look ahead to that.” (Reus)

In an effort to be standing subsequent to Aniki, Lior-Jiichan was a wall I would like to beat. He can be my stepping stone. Nothing would change if I felt hesitant. Whereas observing Jii-chan’s motion and combating the encircling monster, he out of the blue stopped shifting and seemed up on the sky. I used to be questioning what was happening, after which, numerous mana lumps fell from above. As quickly as these fell, it launched shock waves to blow away the monsters, nearly cleared up the monsters that weren’t solely round Jii-chan, but in addition us. The very last thing that fell in the course of what everybody was looking out was… Aniki. In different phrases, it was Aniki’s [Impact]. As Jii-chan was wiping away the blood of the monsters hooked up to his sword, he checked out Aniki with a extremely blissful smile, quite than being offended at being disadvantaged of his prey.

“Hahaha! That was splendid. I really feel relieved that you’re stronger than I anticipated.” (Lior)

“I’m high-quality if you happen to analyze my power with out greeting me, however don’t ignore my disciples an excessive amount of.” (Sirius)

“Humph! Why do I’ve to hearken to what the children say?” (Lior)

“Goodness, you haven’t modified in any respect. Nicely, the state of affairs is the state of affairs, I’ll go away the greeting later.” (Sirius)

It didn’t really feel like assembly a greatest buddy once more. That may be due to the state of affairs. If something, it was an environment that the battle between Aniki and Jii-chan was about to start. The 2 of them ran on the similar time towards one another, not the monsters…

“Hah!” (Sirius)

“Uooh!” (Lior)

After the magic and the sword blowing away the monsters that have been closing in on one another’s again, Aniki and Jii-chan laughed as they have been back-to-back.

“You haven’t rampage sufficient, proper? I’ll deliver you to a great place, so why don’t we go a bit additional away?” (Sirius)

“Let’s try this! I simply need to have somebody who can reply instantly!” (Lior)

Other than the particular Nee-chan, Jii-chan, who often didn’t hearken to anybody, nodded. It might sound unreasonable, nevertheless it was pure. That was as a result of Aniki fought Jii-chan many instances, and so they acknowledged one another. By the best way, I didn’t neglect that Aniki was profitable. Once they rushed to the hordes of monsters, we noticed the true robust males.

“I’m going to interrupt it off from the left wing! Comply with me.” (Sirius)

“Huhahaha! If you happen to plan to make a joke, I’m going to slice you!” (Lior)

We did attempt to break by way of the hordes of monsters from the entrance, however the momentum of Aniki and Jii-chan was clearly totally different. The very first thing I observed was that Jii-chan’s sword swing velocity went up even additional. Till now, it was only a violent sword that spit out what had been accrued, however now, I felt like Jii-chan was displaying his true approach. The sword that was shaken whereas chasing Aniki, who ran as he kicked monsters, was like a storm. It created a street whereas constructing mountains of lifeless our bodies on the flat land full of monsters.

“What… is that? It’s like Father and Mom… No, it’s greater than that?” (Julia)

“Is the facility of Shishou and the Strongest Sword so totally different from us?” (Beowulf)

Irrespective of how a lot they have been surrounded by monsters, Jii-chan was wonderful as he swung his sword with fun, however the one who I used to be most stunned was in all probability Aniki. I knew that he was guiding Jii-chan, however clearly, however even when he paid consideration to Aniki’s sword, it wasn’t uncommon to maintain their distance away whereas persevering with to maneuver ahead.

“Oi oi, why is he combating in that place? It’s too harmful.” (Keith)

“Maybe, it doesn’t deliver any which means if he doesn’t keep in entrance of Lior-san.” (Beowulf)

In comparison with me have been utilizing the weaker model of ‘Single Strike Final Destruction Sword Type’ yesterday, Jii-chan’s sword sliced the monster that couldn’t be reached by his blade. It was terrifying as a result of he was utilizing it like respiratory. It felt like a secret approach or one thing. In different phrases, when Aniki moved to a place the place Jii-chan’s sword couldn’t attain, the monsters got here and have been sliced instantly. That was why Aniki didn’t attempt to transfer additional away and saved shifting ahead whereas avoiding Jii-chans sword. Morever, he did that with out even wanting again.

“Do-does Shishou has eyes on the again?” (Beowulf)

“No, even if you happen to can see his sword, you may’t simply keep away from it. It’s purely Sirius-san’s skill.” (Albert)

If I have been so as to add yet another factor, Jii-chan didn’t maintain again even as soon as. If there have been allies within the assault vary, it will be regular to regulate, however within the case of Jii-chan, he didn’t hesitate to swing the sword a lot to the purpose it made individuals suppose that he was aiming at Aniki. It was like individuals might be killed whereas pondering that he was joking round. I needed to say that, nevertheless it appeared Jii-chan was critical. I couldn’t inform lies even when it meant good or dangerous.

“So, we don’t must cost additional.” (Keith)

“If we get intervene unnecessarily, we are going to solely get of their means. Julia-sama, please put together to withdraw…” (Albert)

Extra… they made me needed to see extra. I needed to see the power from their again slowly. I spotted that Aniki and Jii-chan have been going to disappeared quickly, so I seemed again in a rush and apologized to everybody.

“Sorry! I’m going to observe Aniki!” (Reus)

“Please wait. If you happen to go away them alone, they are going to certainly come again.” (Albert)

“I’m not fearful about them. I simply need to see them! I’ll remorse if I’m not following these two!” (Reus)

“In that case, will you go along with us?” (Julia)

In entrance of me, who may need began operating if no one was there, Julia, who had been away earlier than I observed, confirmed up on a horse. Albert and Keith rushed to cease her in a rush as a result of she had gear that individuals might solely suppose that she would cost forward together with her a number of escorts.

“Oi oi!? Is Princess speaking one thing loopy?” (Keith)

“I’m simply going to observe the Strongest Sword. What? The monster assault needs to be that extreme if we observe these two.” (Julia)

“Absolutely, that’s true, nevertheless it’s nonetheless harmful. And we will’t neglect the protection right here…” (Albert)

“I perceive that it’s unscrupulous. Nevertheless, I can’t overlook how these two struggle!” (Julia)

One way or the other, Julia felt the identical means as me. The issue was that when Julia and I left, I used to be fearful in regards to the protection in entrance of the principle gate.

“I’ll struggle along with Beowulf-dono. If he joins us, the protection right here can be sufficient.” (Albert)

“Nicely, yeah. I can go away it to guys with peace of thoughts.” (Reus)

“I’ve come right here with that intention, and I don’t really feel dangerous about being relied on, however have I carried out one thing that might be trusted immediately?” (Beowulf)

““I can inform by taking a look at your swordsmanship.”” (Reus/Julia)

“…You’re actually fits one another.” (Albert)

It wasn’t solely Beowulf, however everybody else was sighing. What was fallacious with them? Nicely, I’d give it some thought later. After deciding to observe Aniki and jii-chan, I observed that Julia on the horse was reaching out to me.

“Nicely then, let’s hurry and chase them. Reus, you need to trip behind me.” (Julia)

“Is there one other horse? I’m fairly heavy.” (Reus)

“I need to spare horses as a lot as potential, and my horse isn’t weak. Plus, you’re the one one I can entrust my again.” (Julia)

What was that… I didn’t dislike it, however I really feel like using collectively together with her. In such an odd temper, I chased Aniki and Jii-chan on the identical horse as Julia.

—

The trail that Aniki and Jii-chan made was buried by monsters. As Julia anticipated, the quantity was lowering. So, we have been in a position to meet up with them with out a lot bother. Each continued to defeat the monsters with great momentum as typical. Aniki, who blew the approaching monsters away with [Shotgun], gave directions to Jii-chan.

“Jii-san, I go away the massive one over there to you.” (Sirius)

“Yeah, you too!? My preys will probably be lowered, you recognize!” (Lior)

“Then, we could evaluate? I can use comparable magic.” (Sirius)

“Hou… attention-grabbing! Let’s do it!” (Lior)

Aniki skillfully induced Jii-chan. Then, he unleashed [Break Thrust] within the course the place everybody wasn’t concerned, and on the similar time, Aniki shot [Anti Materiel] and defeated troublesome monsters. We have been chasing them whereas they continued on the trail that was made in such a means. Instantly, Julia whispered as she maneuvering the horse.

“The place is Sirius-dono headed? There should have been troublesome monsters on the opposite aspect.” (Julia)

“Aniki is aiming for those that affecting the monsters. It’s arduous to grasp as a result of there are too many monsters, however they appear to be in lots of locations.” (Reus)

Aniki stated that particular monsters have been positioned everybody on the battlefield with a purpose to give detailed directions to the monsters that they have been controlling as of late. Julia tilted her head, questioning if there have been such monsters. After some time chasing them, we observed that some monsters have a distinctly totally different environment. It was arduous to grasp due to the massive measurement, however I felt that the monster had an identical environment to the Chimera that we fought with Albert previously.

“Proceed with out stopping. Ensure you get that although!” (Sirius)

“I simply want to chop it! Oraaa–!” (Lior)

Aniki jumped over the Chimera’s head to distract it, and the instantly approaching Jii-chan sliced into two. Along with that, Aniki fired magic as he jumped and rotated within the air. On the similar time, he shot not solely on the close by monsters, but in addition troublesome monsters that threw rocks from distant away. Actually… there was no waste in Aniki’s motion. Extra than simply assaulting and paving the best way, he all the time learn forward and moved. For instance, large-size monsters that have been arduous to kill by magic have been pressed to Jii-chan, and he gave precedence to small-size monsters that appeared troublesome to chop with sword. It may be due to that, I’d say that Jii-chan was extra excited than rampaging alone. I felt like he was swinging his sword with excessive happiness. Then, Julia, who had been fascinated by Jii-chan’s swordsmanship, requested me very significantly. She would possibly discover the particular actions of Aniki.

“Reus. Who’s Sirius-dono?” (Julia)

“What? Aniki is simply Aniki.” (Reus)

“I perceive why the Strongest Sword is robust. That’s in all probability as a result of he continues to shine his swordsmanship till that age. However why is Sirius-dono so robust despite the fact that he isn’t as outdated as me?” (Julia)

“The reason being easy. That’s as a result of Aniki has been working arduous sufficient to beat Jii-chan.” (Reus)

He stated he had the information… of the earlier life, however I didn’t suppose it issues. Irrespective of how a lot he remembered, it wasn’t simple to maneuver the physique that means. And even Aniki made varied errors. I knew he was coaching arduous sufficient to bleed blood. Even when he saved dropping within the mock battle, he didn’t quit. That was as a result of I knew Aniki’s effort. To place it merely, he by no means uncared for his coaching irrespective of. He saved going ahead with out giving up. That’s why he was robust… no, he bought stronger.

“There aren’t any shortcuts or particular powers to be actually robust. If you happen to take a look at them, you’ll perceive, proper?” (Reus)

“…Aah!” (Julia)

Julia nodded in satisfaction. She appeared to grasp what I needed to say despite the fact that it was obscure. She, then, continued using the horse.

After that, they continued to assault. Even at a distance the place Jii-chan’s sword couldn’t attain, the monsters’ assault had turn out to be sluggish. We have been in a position to watch battle rigorously, however since two Gigatients observed the risk right here coming nearer, it wasn’t longer the state of affairs the place we might observe them.

“It may need been the fitting reply in any case. We are going to assist as properly.” (?)

“Julia-sama, the preparation is prepared.” (?)

In anticipation of this case, Julia’s escorts took out an iron stake to defeat the Gigatients, and so they have been ready for the order. After I tried to inform them that Aniki and Jii-chan would handle the Gigatients… I observed three extra got here out from a far.

“Kuh… that is dangerous. We’re going to affix them quickly!” (Julia)

“No, you don’t must go.” (Reus)

When Julia tried to place a whip on the horse, Aniki, who leaped away from Jii-chan’s sword, checked out us. These eyes… I felt like he was saying that we didn’t must do something.

“I’ll get those which are a bit additional away. I go away the massive ones to you.” (Sirius)

“Hahaha! Isn’t that simple to be lower!?” (Lior)

Aniki continued to leap into the sky with [Air Step]. He jumped over the monsters and headed for the three further Gigatients that appeared. And when Aniki approached the highest of the three Gigatients, he shot [Magnum] straight down. Similar to how Julia and her escort knocked them down with iron stake, the monsters stiffened and collapsed.

“Wha!? What on the planet is that this!? I don’t count on that it’s so highly effective magic?” (?)

“Perhaps, it’s the identical as Julia did?” (Reus)

I believed that Aniki would have the ability to blow the pinnacle fully if he used [Anti Materiel], however that drained an enormous quantity of mana. Nevertheless, within the case of [Magnum], it was blocked by the wall of flesh and wouldn’t attain the important level. So, Aniki shot the identical magic 3 times all on the identical spot, created a gap and reached its important level. Definitely, it was like one-whole shot… or one thing like that. I remembered Aniki was saying it. Then, Aniki defeated Gigatient one after one other. Within the meantime, Lior-Jiichan was…

“Oraaa–!” (Lior)

Even the Gigatient was like a shifting mountain, he sliced it into two in a stroke. He didn’t go round to the aspect like me and lower its neck, he sliced it from the entrance. After slicing the monster that was a number of tens of instances longer than his sword, he muttered whereas taking a look at an enormous chunk of meat that broke aside.

“Hmm… I slashed slightly to the fitting, nevertheless it’s high-quality. Subsequent!” (Lior)

“““…””” (?)

As anticipated, not solely Julia, the escorts behind her couldn’t say something. Whereas everybody who was using the horse, was half-stunned, Jii-chan sliced the opposite Gigatient into two. At the moment, Aniki returned after clearing all three Gigatients.

“Subsequent is the fitting wing aspect. You’re not drained, proper?” (Sirius)

“No means! It’s nonetheless not sufficient!” (Lior)

One way or the other… I felt like I understood them. These two couldn’t go away one another again identical to how I used to be with Albert. They knew one another’s talents and have been satisfied that they might be high-quality with their power. Subsequently, Jii-chan might swing his sword with out hesitation whether or not Aniki was in entrance of him or not. That may be additionally certainly one of my goals. To get a bit nearer… and to maneuver ahead… I saved carving the struggle between Aniki and Jii-chan into my thoughts.
