Chapter 173 – Preparation

— Sirius —

With the assistance of Zenodora’s group, Beowulf and Strongest Sword-Jiisan, we managed to recover from the fifth day and make a comeback on the conflict progress. Within the night, I managed to cease Jii-san from making an attempt to chase the monsters that started to retreat all of sudden. After we returned to the primary gate with Reus and Julia, who had been following us from behind, many troopers greeted us with a voice of pleasure. The cheer of the troopers was at least they did to rejoice Julia’s success. It was in all probability as a result of the battle was over or they noticed Strongest Sword. I believed it felt good to be so completely happy, however for some cause, Jii-san was wanting on the troopers in a nasty temper.

“So noisy. If in case you have the power to again, it’s higher to swing your sword.” (Lior)

“I really feel the identical method. However they’re glad that Strongest Sword has come. Allow them to be like that somewhat bit extra.” (Sirius)

“Nice. By the way in which, who is that this Jou-chan?” (Lior)

“Sorry for introducing this late. My identify is Julia.” (Julia)

Julia was delighted to see the individual she admired, however the different facet was an previous man who went his personal method. Regardless that Julia’s eyes turned to be like an harmless little one, he felt that it was troublesome.

“I’m Ikki Tousen. I’m a swordsman in a journey. I don’t know who you name Strongest Sword.” (Lior)

“What are you speaking about? Jii-chan is Strongest Sword.” (Reus)

“Shut up! I’m Ikki Tousen.” (Lior)

Talking of which, I felt like he had stated up to now that he would retrain as a swordsman and lived underneath one other identify, not as Strongest Sword, Lior. I ended Reus from asking any additional. Then, Albert and the imperial guards, who had been ready in entrance of the primary gate, approached us.

“Welcome again, everybody. Thank goodness Julia-sama and Reus got here again safely.” (Albert)

“Severely, it was flashy, isn’t it? I additionally need to go all out someday.” (Reus)

“You’ll be able to go away the cleanup to us. Sirius-san and the remaining, please take a relaxation.” (Albert)

Everybody appeared to be drained, however there weren’t so many critically injured. I used to be relieved. As Beowulf and others walked sideways to see whether or not there have been monsters that had been nonetheless alive among the many useless corpses, Emilia descended from the highest of the wall and lowered the falling velocity with wind magic.

“Thanks in your arduous work, Sirius-sama. Right here you go.” (Emilia)

“I recognize it. By the way in which, I can’t keep away from the blood spilled from the assault.” (Sirius)

After I obtained the towel that she had supplied, I wiped the blood spilled from the monsters on my physique, I observed that Emilia was taking a look at me with awfully feverish eyes.

“It was a extremely nice combat. I’m proud to be Sirius-sama’s attendant.” (Emilia)

“That’s as a result of Jii-san was with me. Nicely, I’ve been doing long-distance warfare for the previous couple of days. So it was train at this time.” (Sirius)

“Aah, there’s nonetheless some dust right here. Go away it to me!” (Emilia)

As all the time, Emilia was excited and completely happy to deal with me, however there was an individual subsequent to me who was excited in some ways.

“Kuhh! You’ve grown as much as be such a ravishing girl… That’s priceless!” (Lior)

“Ten years have already handed. It’s regular for me to develop up. Do you additionally want a towel, Ojii-chan?” (Emilia)

“And it was so worthwhile… guhaa!? Hey, are there any dwelling monsters?” (Lior)

It appeared that he was too pleased with Emilia’s progress, and his overflowing feelings couldn’t be suppressed. The tears flowed like a waterfall… the troopers round him had been beginning to distance themselves from the unsettled previous man who was hit with sentiment. Reus, who was speaking to Julia, approached me, however I used to be taking a look at Jii-san with a troubled face as if I couldn’t hear the dialog.

“What’s it? Regardless that he stated that Nee-chan was glowing, did he see her correctly?” (Reus)

“Glowing? I don’t actually perceive, however you must also be ready for it. Aah, please wipe Ojii-chan’s tears as properly.” (Emilia)

“I can’t assist it. Hey, take a look at your nostril.” (Reus)

“Muguhh!? Why are you doing this, brat? Shouldn’t it’s Emilia!?” (Lior)

A towel was pressed in opposition to his face. I believed it was regular to get indignant, however what was that daring comment about? As I used to be taking a look at Jii-san who started to chase Reus by swinging his sword, Zenodora’s group, who was checking the environment from the sky, descended.

[It looks like there are no more small fries. Even so, this is the first time I’ve ever seen monsters run away like that.] (Zenodora)

[We were called. By the way… what are they doing? Aren’t there no more monsters?] (Mejia)

“Aah… don’t fear about them.” (Sirius)

After that, we went to the gate of the frontline base, bringing collectively Zenodora’s group and Jii-san, who was stopped by Emilia’s calling.

—

Later, we had a method assembly with solely Zenodora, and once we entered the eating corridor the place everybody went there sooner than us, the corridor was chaotic if I needed to summarize. Along with the disciples who stood out, there have been Dragonkin of their humanoid type and the previous man generally known as Strongest Sword. The noisy half was that many troopers had been gathering to see them at a look, however it was primarily attributable to Reus and Jii-san who had been noisier than the troopers.

“Jii-chan! You’ll be able to’t eat that alone!” (Reus)

“You’re noisy! That is all mine!” (Lior)

It appeared that Jii-san was monopolizing the grilled meat on a big plate.

‘Severely… I do know you’re hungry, however that’s so infantile.’

“This was made by Emilia, alright!? So, I’ll eat every little thing!” (Lior)

‘So infantile…’

I supposed that Emilia would quickly cease the fuss, however presently, she appeared to be cooking additional meals within the kitchen within the inside corridor, and there appeared to be nobody making an attempt to cease Jii-san’s reckless conduct. Albert and Keith in all probability had been by the Beast King facet. In the intervening time, solely Reus, Beowulf and Jii-san had been sitting at a desk. Within the subsequent desk, there have been Mejia and three Dragonkin who had been watching the combat between Jii-san and Reus whereas consuming.

“It’s noisy, however is it presupposed to be noisy when in the course of the meal?” (Mejia)

“Sure, that’s true in a way, however aren’t we comparable?” (Rai)

“Sure. Bear in mind the time we had the dishes made by Sirius-dono?” (Kuva)

“A few of them had been combating one another to seek out out which one was scrumptious.” (Eye)

Apart from the dishes that Emilia appeared to have made in a rush, there have been additionally different preserved meals equivalent to dried meat and cheese. It appeared very satisfying to see that it match the Dragonkin’s desire. The issue was, they had been consuming rather a lot. Jii-san was additionally the identical. I ought to fear concerning the depletion of provides, however I didn’t have to fret about it already. As a way to inform everybody what had been determined within the technique assembly earlier, I sat on the desk the place Reus and Jii-san had been combating for the grilled meat.

“Cease it, you two. It’s noisy, and what for those who drop these earlier meals?” (Sirius)

“Aniki. This dish is for everybody to eat, proper? So, we should always share it and eat collectively!” (Reus)

“No, it’s my meat!” (Lior)

“Reus. I do know what you imply, however that’s not the final of it. Simply give all of it to Jii-san.” (Sirius)

This was in all probability not about consuming meat, however the act of monopolizing meals was unacceptable. Regardless that Reus might eat parts for a number of folks, he was somebody who might endure if everybody wasn’t happy. Nevertheless, for the reason that different facet was Jii-san who lived by intuition, it wouldn’t be efficient to forcibly inform him that. It might be faster to unravel the difficulty, so I used to be sorry for letting him did no matter he needed…

“In trade. I gained’t allow you to eat the following dish. I’ll cease you with my would possibly.” (Sirius)

“Hoh. Fascinating. If you happen to assume you may, attempt to cease me!” (Lior)

“Talking of stopping you, Emilia may even attempt to cease you. And in contrast to the shortly ready meat, the following dish is extra elaborate…” (Sirius)

“Eat it! This brat, and that brat, you eat it!” (Lior)

““Mugahhh!?”” (Reus/Beowulf)

Jii-san instantly conscious of the drawback of the state of affairs. He forcibly pushed meat into Reus’ and Beowulf’s mouth. I didn’t imply that the meals was poor, however I didn’t need him to deal with the meals in such a multitude. Underneath such circumstances, Emilia, the ultimate weapon, returned with a platter, however behind her, there wasn’t solely Marina, but additionally Reese and Princess Liefell.

“Aah, Sirius-sama. Welcome again.” (Emilia)

“The assembly is over. They’ll be prepared quickly, so sit down and wait.” (Reese)

They will need to have joined collectively on the way in which to prepare dinner collectively. With the same old mushy smile, Reese started to line up the dishes on the desk along with Emilia. Due to their assist, we had been prepared very quickly. When everybody was seated, I stated that I had one thing to inform and that caught everybody’s consideration.

“This was determined on the final assembly that we’re going to desert this frontline base.” (Sirius)

“Is that so? No marvel you advised me I might use the components as a lot as I preferred.” (Emilia)

The directions had in all probability been handed all the way down to the entire, and once we observed, many of the troopers round us had nearly disappeared. They had been working across the constructing and making ready to desert the bottom.

“We’ll go away this place tonight, aside from a number of. Or really, I satisfied everybody to take action.” (Sirius)

“Regardless that Zenodora-san and Jii-chan got here, can we nonetheless have to go away this place?” (Reus)

“We will nonetheless combat, however the others are at their restrict.” (Sirius)

Regardless of how a lot we tried, we couldn’t make up for the entire battlefield. Thus, they’d get via between the openings, and the bottom can be attacked. Protection gear and partitions, which had been stated to be the iron partitions, had been closely diminished by the battle of the previous few days. It was protected to say that it could be destroyed as quickly as potential. Relatively than counting on unstable instruments to enlarge harm, they need to return to their well-defended residence nation whereas the power nonetheless remained. The combat was nonetheless happening. Jii-san, who was absorbed with the boned meat, had an sad expression, as if he couldn’t keep silent when listening to that we had been going to retreat.

“What? Why are we working away? I have to slice some extra.” (Lior)

“After going rampage this a lot, aren’t you having it sufficient already?” (Reus)

“This individual gained’t be happy if it’s simply half a day. It must be a minimum of someday.” (Beowulf)

“That’s fantastic, however it’s troubling for those who transfer as you please. There’ll all the time be a spot the place Jii-san can play an energetic half, so please don’t attempt to cost alone.” (Sirius)

“Ojii-chan, please stay nonetheless till Sirius-sama permits you to take action.” (Emilia)

“If Emilia says so, I’ve no selection.” (Lior)

With Emilia’s phrases, it was very simple as a result of Jii-san would abide. The remaining had been Zenodora and others, however they promised to adapt to my actions, so there wouldn’t be any downside. As I continued to convey different contents determined in the course of the assembly, Princess Liefell requested me if there was something I used to be involved about.

“You’ve got managed to persuade everybody properly. Particularly sending the non-combatants again to Sandor. All that is still are those that determined to remain, proper?” (Liefell)

“Nicely, I managed to do it as a result of I’ve my very own cause, and there are additionally Jii-san and Zenodora-sama’s group right here.” (Sirius)

Most individuals had been reluctant, saying that this was a spot to die, however I satisfied them with my suggestion and I really threatened them somewhat bit. I might perceive the will to die on the battlefield as a soldier, and the satisfaction that they needed to guard their nation by betting on their life. But when they had been proud warriors, they’d need extra satisfying battle and dying. Even when they stored combating right here, they’d solely be crushed and killed by the quantity of monsters that reached no restrict.

“Even when we don’t run away, we are able to cost collectively, proper? Not solely Jii-chan and Beowulf, we even have Zenodora-san and others.” (Reus)

“I simply heard concerning the state of affairs right here. Anyhow, there’s someone who manipulates the monster, proper? I don’t assume will probably be tough with our conflict potentials, so I additionally agree with Reus’ suggestion.” (Beowulf)

“I’ve thought-about that technique. However it’s too early to do this.” (Sirius)

Actually, now that we had Jii-san and others, it was potential to interrupt via Lambda’s group or maybe the mastermind behind all this. Nevertheless, this was initially the issue of Sandor. Subsequently, I didn’t assume we might clear up it with our personal assist.

“The truth that a widely known superpower solved its downside with the assistance of strangers is… one thing that’s not good for the nation itself. If we’re going to cost, I feel we should always a minimum of report it to the king.” (Sirius)

“Aah, I see.” (Reus)

“That’s certainly true. I didn’t contemplate it sufficient.” (Beowulf)

“That’s not it. Actually, we don’t serve the nation, and if that’s true, we don’t have to fret about it. Nevertheless, there’s another excuse to say no. It’s to lure Lambda’s group who haven’t confirmed up in any respect.” (Sirius)

The one issues that emerged in the previous couple of days had been monsters and the precise copy of Lambda. For Lambda, the frontline base was only a passing level, so it was anticipated that there was no want for him to indicate up. To start with, his objective was revenge, and slightly than simply straying from an accurate path, he was making an attempt to destroy Sandor on the expense of varied issues. If there was that a lot obsession, he would undoubtedly see Sandor being attacked.

“When it’s time to assault Sandor instantly, he’ll present up. Regardless that he’s robust sufficient, this frontline base is just not near the goal that he’s aiming for.” (Sirius)

“What if that man doesn’t present up?” (Reus)

“In that case, as what Reus and Beowulf stated earlier, we are going to cost ahead. We and the volunteers will break via the monsters and purpose for the one who’s manipulating the monsters.” (Sirius)

If it was arduous to assault from the bottom, there was a option to break via from the sky on the again of Zenodora’s group. So, it wasn’t a nasty guess. I briefly defined the prediction and the move of the longer term. After consuming the tea that Emilia had ready earlier than I observed it, I started to summarize the plan.

“Nicely, that was why we’re leaving from a unit that’s able to withdraw, so it’s going to be quiet right here quickly.” (Sirius)

“Understood. Now that you’ve got sorted your issues, please take your time to eat, Sirius-sama.” (Emilia)

“No, it’s fantastic. I don’t need to hurry. We’re going to remain right here till morning.” (Sirius)

This was additionally troublesome to influence. It might be harmful to retreat whereas being chased by monsters. Initially, I used to be stared due to this planning, however most of them had been satisfied after I defined the explanation and about our group members. There have been Hokuto and Zenodora’s group, so it was simple for us to retreat. Even when we had been chased by monsters, we’d be capable of retreat simply.

“Is there something left to do till morning?” (Emilia)

“I’m going to examine tomorrow’s formation. Maybe, Lambda will seem due to Jii-san and Zenodora’s group.” (Sirius)

In actual fact, I needed to speak to Lambda once more, so I needed to extend the probabilities of assembly him even somewhat. I used to be too busy to think about it when Julia was at risk. There was no rebut from everybody even after I defined it, so I expressed my apology and was grateful for my resolution. Then, I turned my eyes once more to Jii-chan and Beowulf.

“Now, the arduous half is simply till right here. It’s a bit late, however let’s rejoice the reunion with Jii-san. Lets?” (Sirius)

“Ouh! Not simply with Zenodora-san’s group, it’s been a very long time since I’ve seen Jii-chan and Beowulf.” (Reus)

Upon returning to the frontline base, I needed to go to the convention room. So I didn’t have the time to speak slowly, I didn’t have to introduce myself since we had already met one another earlier than. For that cause, I used to be interested by listening to the encounter between Jii-san and Beowulf, however Jii-san started to make a fuss, waving his cup whereas nonetheless consuming.

“Ugh… not sufficient! Alcohol!” (Lior)

“That’s the third cup, isn’t it? I don’t thoughts, however the others can’t drink it, so be affected person, alright?” (Sirius)

The troopers on this frontline base didn’t drink as a result of they continued to combat monsters for these 5 days. Relatively than letting him know the very fact, the spirit of Jii-san, who might proceed to drink calmly, appeared tougher than metal.

“Emilia cooked such a scrumptious meat, however the alcohol isn’t sufficient! Brats, put together it fast!” (Lior)

“Why me?” (Reus)

“It’s pointless to go in opposition to him. Is there any alcohol I can get on the again?” (Beowulf)

“No, don’t fear about it. I’ll put together for it quickly.” (Julia)

Julia, who had completed her enterprise, got here earlier than Beowulf and the shocked Reus. Jii-san’s voice was so loud that it may very well be heard from afar. When she knew that there wasn’t sufficient alcohol, she ordered the imperial guards to convey it from the kitchen.

“Hei Emilia, who is that this Jou-chan?” (Lior)

“Didn’t I say it earlier? She’s Julia.” (Reus)

“Is that so? Or slightly, I’m asking Emilia, not you.” (Lior)

“That is Julia-sama. She is the primary princess of Sandor.” (Emilia)

“Princess…?” (Lior)

When Jii-san turned conscious of her royal standing, his temper turned noticeably worse. However that could be pure. Earlier than he met me, he was spending time in Sandor, and the disciples he had educated appeared to be killed by boastful nobles at the moment. Nevertheless, it was stated that the current Sandor king took over the reign after Jii-san left, and he cleaned up these nobles. Above all, Julia wasn’t concerned within the circumstances at the moment, so I advised him that there was no cause to dislike her, however I couldn’t make sense to this previous man.

“Strongest Sword… No, Tousen-dono. I’m sorry for this late, however thanks very a lot for serving to us.” (Julia)

“I don’t care. I simply got here to swing my sword.” (Lior)

“Even so, your sword save many troopers. I want to thanks on behalf of everybody.” (Julia)

“Do it what you need. I’m consuming meat now, so don’t disturb me anymore.” (Lior)

He was simply unapproachable. The best way this infantile Jii-san handled the phrases of gratitude was horrible. Nevertheless, Julia didn’t appear to care in any respect. She continued to speak with out stopping after profoundly bowing her head.

“I don’t know what occurred at the moment, however Father stated that he needed to apologize for what the fools of our folks as soon as did to you. If in case you have time, would you please meet the king and his vassals?” (Julia)

“Hmmph, if I really feel prefer it.” (Lior)

“I’ve been saying up so far because the princess of Sandor. Now, I need to inform you this as a swordsman.” (Julia)

“Swordsman, is it?” (Lior)

“I need you to show me swordsmanship! Haah–!” (Julia)

The motion was too sudden, and everybody who was watching her stopped for a second. Along with her enthusiastic yell, she swung the sword that she had pulled out of her again and swung it all the way down to Jii-san’s head. It was unimaginable to say that folks shouldn’t be shocked. After all it was relieved as a result of the sword was stopped, however as anticipated, this wasn’t thought-about as impolite.

“Ju-julia? What are you making an attempt to do!?” (Liefell)

“After all, that is for the sake of being taught by Strongest Sword-dono. I heard from Reus that it was higher to swing with murderous intent than to talk poorly.” (Julia)

“No, did I say so!?” (Reus)

Julia had heard loads about Strongest Sword from Reus, and apparently she appeared to have put the content material into apply right now. Actually, within the case of Jii-san, he was extra on motion than poor phrases… No, I believed the assault can be extra pleasing, however I didn’t anticipate that she would actually do it. Did her instincts make her do this or did she belief Reus that a lot? Anyhow, it was an unprecedented princess who didn’t need to lose in opposition to Jii-san. By the way in which, Jii-san didn’t transfer and solely regarded on the sword in entrance of him regardless that it could be thought-about impolite if he was all of a sudden attacked from the facet.

“What? Are you shocked and may’t say something?” (Julia)

“Nonsense! I simply know that the sword will cease. Ojou-chan, will you place some extra murderous intent in your sword!?” (Lior)

“Sure! Please excuse me!” (Julia)

The explanation of the shout appeared to be totally different from the intention. After consuming meat, Jii-chan quietly started to look at Julia, who appeared to care about being impolite.

“You don’t have sufficient murderous intention. Your sword swing is gentle. Nicely the… the place did you study swordsmanship?” (Lior)

“It’s self-styled. I’ve been combating numerous swordsmen to hone the talents I would like.” (Julia)

“What’s the cause for swinging sword?” (Lior)

“It’s fascinating! It’s enjoyable to go down the trail as a swordsman and fortify your swordsmanship!” (Julia)

“…Hmm. I don’t like royalty, however you’re bizarre, Jou-chan.” (Lior)

Some folks disliked when there have been comparable folks with them, however within the case of those two, they acquired on properly with the state of affairs. Our concept that we might get alongside higher if we tried to kill one another appeared to have been proved unsuitable, however this Jii-san’s distinctive sensibility was nonetheless unusual. Jii-san put up a fearless smile from the grumpy expression he had a second earlier, however there was nonetheless one thing else Julia needed to say.

“I’m involved while you stated concerning the royalty, however that’s not an issue. I’ll finally quit my royal standing and marry Reus as a lady.” (Julia)

“Wait a minute, Julia. Don’t throw it away, alright!” (Liefell)

“You don’t have to say it anymore. I’ve already determined!” (Julia)

“Hei, aren’t you apprehensive about this girl? Severely, if in case you have time to skip actuality due to her, you higher swing your sword.” (Lior)

“Shut up! It’s pure to deal with girls, and for those who like them, it’s pure to be a pair. Even Nee-chan turned Aniki’s spouse!” (Reus)

“What did you say!?” (Lior)

When Jii-san heard that Emilia had turn out to be my spouse, he shouted whereas squeezing the cup he was holding. Everybody on the spot realized that the ambiance was clearly turned disagreeable. Beowulf took the initiative forward of everybody, in all probability due to his expertise, shouted whereas reaching out for me.

“R-run away! I’ll pull out my sword!” (Beowulf)

“Aniki! Rattling it, can I cease him with my sword?” (Reus)

“…Hmmph!” (Lior)

The 2 interrupted to guard me, however surprisingly, Jii-san stopped transferring when he grasped the sword on his again. Then, he grabbed new grilled meat with an uninterested expression, and shredded it. Reus and Beowulf had been surprised by his sudden conduct.

“What? Why are you taking a look at me with such a face? Do you each need to be sliced up?” (Lior)

“No, that’s… not it?” (Reus)

“Yeah, I undoubtedly thought that you just’re going to show violent.” (Beowulf)

“Noisy! I’ll need to admit since he’s the person who beats me!” (Lior)

“I feel it’s bizarre that individuals who aren’t Emilia’s speedy family say a lot within the first place.” (Liefell)

Princess Liefell made an strategy to shut the argument, however it appeared that didn’t attain his ears. Even when Jii-san admitted it by the mouth, he won’t be capable of consent from the guts. Then, Reus requested him as he continued to eat meat to alleviate his anger.

“Then, what if a person aside from Aniki says that he desires to marry Nee-chan?” (Reus)

“That’s not it. I’ll give it some thought if he can combat me and win in opposition to me 100 instances.” (Lior)

Was he solely contemplating and never permitting it to occur even 100 instances? After I thought how Jii-san had turn out to be a lot stronger than up to now, which he stated he was in his heyday, I felt that it was almost unimaginable.

“If Aniki didn’t get him, I really feel like Nee-chan shall be single endlessly.” (Reus)

“Reus. I perceive you don’t imply that, however that’s a bit impolite.” (Emilia)

“I’m sorry!” (Reus)

“Nuhahaha! What a pitiful brat.” (Lior)

“I feel that’s Ojii-chan’s fault, proper?” (Emilia)

“Ugh!?” (Lior)

Regardless that Jii-san was generally known as the strongest swordsman, he was like this in entrance of Emilia. Julia, who was sitting in a close-by seat, regarded critically at Jii-san’s look that regarded like a baby being scolded by a father or mother.

“He’s fully emasculated, isn’t it? You don’t need to see this sort of determine from Strongest Sword who you admire, proper?” (Liefell)

“That’s not it. I’m glad to know that my future sister-in-law is such an incredible individual.” (Julia)

“You’re so constructive…” (Liefell)

“Uh… I really feel bizarre after I’m upset.” (Marina)

“Marina cares an excessive amount of concerning the surrounding. Boys like Reus appear to have traits that look most tasty to folks such as you, proper.” (Liefell)

“Y-yes!” (Marina)

Regardless that few years had handed, Jii-san acted acquainted to us. The issue was it was tough to deal with him, however it wasn’t too unhealthy since Beowulf was used to being pulled by Jii-san as properly. I guessed it was impolite to go away Zenodora’s group out of the dialog, however they had been having fun with meals that had been good for preservation, so it appeared higher to speak to them after they’d completed consuming.

When the ready dish was cleared up, the Beast King, who was making ready for the retreat along with his troopers, appeared in entrance of us with Keith and Albert.

“Nicely, even on this state of affairs, you appear to be as typical. I heard the voice even earlier than getting into the eating corridor.” (Beast King)

“That is embarrassing. Nicely, it’s noisier, and above all, it’s quieter with few folks.” (Albert)

The frontline base the place hundreds of troopers alone had been stationed, was already sparsely populated with the presence of individuals. The eating corridor was vigorous as a result of we had been there, but when I went a step out of the corridor, I might be in a lonely ambiance the place the presence of individuals had nearly disappeared.

“I used to be going to go away as quickly as I used to be able to withdraw, however I need to speak to everybody earlier than that.” (Beast King)

“Then, I’ll see you off.” (Sirius)

“No want. I’ll see you quickly anyway. You had been so energetic at this time, so you must relaxation slowly. Then… is that the rumored Strongest Sword?” (Beast King)

“I’m Touse–… Hmm?” (Lior)

There have been two individuals who nonetheless hadn’t completed consuming but. Considered one of them, Jii-san regarded up, noticing the gaze directed by the Beast King. By the way in which, the opposite one who stored consuming was Reese. Jii-san had by no means held again even when coping with royalties. Nevertheless, was the presence of a powerful man felt from the Beast King not negligible? After rinsing the meat within the mouth with alcohol, he laughed fearlessly.

“Hoo… fascinating. Not solely a wolf and dragons, there’s additionally a cat.” (Lior)

“Father is a Lion, not a Cat! Are you a idiot?!” (Keith)

“Relax, Keith. It’s an honor to have the well-known Strongest Sword to really feel that. I want to ask you if I’ve an opportunity, however that isn’t the case proper now.” (Beast King)

“Completely!” (Lior)

Really, Jii-san needed to combat not solely me and Hokuto, however he additionally needed to combat Zenodora’s group proper now. Nevertheless, he was in a state of affairs of being compelled to endure as a result of he was stopped by Emilia. As well as, Keith couldn’t assist to really feel damage on his physique as a result of Jii-san felt the power of the Beast King. Because the tempo of consuming turned quicker, he stated it in a state of being amazed.

“I admit that you just’re robust, however are you alright to drink a lot? As a substitute of tomorrow, are you able to even combat proper now?” (Keith)

“Do you assume my sword will turn out to be gradual due to this water!? What a loud cat.” (Lior)

“I’m a Tiger!” (Keith)

For now, tiger and lion had been each cats, so he wasn’t unsuitable. Nevertheless, Keith discovered it disagreeable. Whereas Jii-san handled the indignant Keith in that method, Albert thought that this case was going to extend. He prevented them and approached us.

“I heard the state of affairs from the Beast King. We’re ready for you and others to return to Sandor. I don’t assume I would like to fret if Marina and Shishou are collectively, however please watch out.” (Albert)

“Sure, Nii-san. Try to be cautious too.” (Marina)

We deliberate to fulfill once more in lower than half a day, however Marina had chosen to not go along with her brother, however to stick with us… or slightly Reus. Marina would possibly need to keep, however Julia would additionally stick with us. I guessed she will need to have determined now. By the way, Princess Liefell additionally stayed right here. It was a matter after all. Nicely, she had been staying near Reese. The Arbitray soldier got here to report whereas we continued our dialog. Then, the Beast King calmed the indignant Keith down, and turned his again.

“Alright then, we’re going again first. I’ll attempt to persuade the folks over there, however don’t be too late.” (Beast King)

“After all. I used to be the one who advised them this plan, so if I make an pointless transfer, they are going to maintain a grudge in opposition to me.” (Sirius)

“Hoh. If you happen to perceive that, that’s good. Lets go?” (Beast King)

Then, after seeing the Beast King left the eating room with Albert and Keith, I defined my upcoming plans and acquired up.

“Now… we’re going to provoke it slowly. You don’t have to do a lot till morning, so relaxation and be careful.” (Sirius)

“Understood. I’ll be prepared to go away.” (Emilia)

“Oh, let me show you how to too. The injured persons are gone and I’ve nearly nothing to do.” (Reese)

“Wait, Reese. It is best to relaxation.” (Liefell)

It was in all probability as a result of Reese had been treating folks for 5 days, she didn’t present the tiredness like she did on the primary day. Nevertheless, that didn’t imply that the variety of injured folks had decreased. There was little question that her burden was rising. I needed her to take correct relaxation since she had been supporting everybody from behind.

“Liefell-hime is correct. Everybody can do their finest if Reese is okay. So, I need you to relaxation.” (Sirius)

“Sirius-san. Alright. Then, I’ll do this.” (Reese)

“Sleep properly. We shall be watching over you. I’m additionally going to sleep with you, .” (Liefell)

“In that case, I can’t sleep. Please cease. Nee-sama is hugging too tight.” (Reese)

As typical, the shut siblings and their attendants went to the bed room. This time, Zenodora’s group, who had completed their meal, referred to as me out.

“Hey Sirius, do you want our assist? I’ll work as a lot as I eat.” (Zenodora)

“I would like your assist somewhat later. You are able to do no matter you need until you attain out to distant monsters.” (Sirius)

“Then, how about we have a look round this base? It’s not unhealthy to see what folks have made.” (Zenodora)

“This man and his uncommon style… Nicely, I’m going to sleep a bit. It was extra troublesome to maintain flying right here than to combat monsters.

Based mostly on what I heard from Zenodora, the dragonkin despatched to assist had been presupposed to be Zenodora and the three dragons, however it appeared Mejia joined in voluntarily. His cause was to return the favor to me, however I didn’t assume I lent him a favor as a result of what I did to his brother. Yeah, I advised him about that, however he was slightly an earnest Dragonkin. He was much like that tough Jii-san. Then, he was lastly happy with consuming the remaining dishes and alcohol. He stood upright whereas rubbing his stomach.

“Phew… I’m happy. Who will swing a sword with empty stomach anyway. You’ll be my opponent, brat.” (Lior)

“Didn’t Aniki inform you to take a relaxation? And Nee-chan additionally advised you to cease till this complete factor is over, proper?” (Reus)

“Emilia solely advised me to not combat the Dragons and the wolf, however she didn’t say about you. Plus, for those who’re coaching, you gained’t die. If we do it frivolously, will probably be fantastic.” (Lior)

“Within the case of Tousen-san, even a picket sword can kill folks, isn’t it?” (Beowulf)

Beowulf was grumbling with empty eyes, as if he had skilled it. Though he was advised many instances and it made no sense, Jii-san grabbed the neck of the 2 whereas laughing out loud and went to the coaching floor.

“If you would like an opponent, I’ll be the one! I need to really feel the swordsmanship of Strongest Sword!” (Julia)

“““Julia-sama!?””” (?)

“Good! That features everybody there!” (Lior)

“““Us too!?””” (?)

In that method, Julia and several other imperial guards had been getting concerned with Jii-san. After I noticed them off with out saying something, Emilia, who was cleansing up, laughed bitterly.

“Aren’t you going to cease them?” (Emilia)

“Nicely, he’s not going to cease. I hope this may make Jii-san a bit extra mature.” (Sirius)

This was a state of affairs the place tiredness needs to be prevented, however Jii-san appeared to be fantastic. Regardless that he had been swinging his sword for nearly half a day, he didn’t really feel drained. However since I couldn’t go away Reus and the remaining alone, I may need to go and see how they had been doing later. I stroked Emilia’s head to calm her coronary heart as I used to be interested by the longer term move.

After that, I separated from Emilia, who went to prepare the baggage. Then, I walked alone on the battlefield the place the useless monsters rolled out of the wall. Within the early morning, if Lambda couldn’t be discovered within the enemy’s formation, we’d withdraw instantly. So, it could be good to relaxation so long as there was no night time raid, however I believed that it could be higher than not doing something. I walked alongside the wall, stopped at common intervals and planted mana stones on the bottom.

“…Ought to I set it on this location as properly?” (Sirius)

The mana stones had been engraved with a magic formation that produced a golem. This was developed by Magna-sensei, who was a trainer within the Elysium college. He often hid behind the headmaster, the Magic Grasp, however the magic and the ability of his primary attribute, soil, was very excessive. Maybe, he was higher than the headmaster on that side. Not to mention being manufactured from soil, he might create golem manufactured from iron. The magic formation for golem created by Magna-sensei was taught to me with the trade of recent confectionary tasting proper for one yr. I supplemented for his honor. It wasn’t just for confectionary, however he trusted that I wouldn’t abuse it.

“That is to guard folks. So, I can use it with out hesitation.” (Sirius)

Nevertheless, even when the efficiency was higher than the everyday golem, the quantity was few in comparison with hordes of monsters. It was like a drop in a bucket. However nonetheless, I might earn a while and scale back the quantity, so the hassle wasn’t a waste. I might consider my work since Hokuto was on high of the frontline base, watching the environment.

“The odor of dying… huh?” (Sirius)

It had been considerably dissipated by the magic of fireplace and wind, however it smells like so many individuals and monsters had died. No, it could be a little bit of an environment. As I continued working whereas remembering the earlier life the place names like a hero or a god of dying got to me since I killed many individuals, I gave order on the identical time Hokuto reacted.

“Hokuto, wait.” (Sirius)

After confirming that Hokuto didn’t transfer, I regarded again. All of the sudden, one thing that had grown from the bottom started to wrap up the corpse of a close-by monster. Apparently, it had been nourishing itself by consuming the monster. It regularly modified its form after fully consumed the monster.

“…I needed you to indicate up a bit earlier.” (Sirius)

“Why do I have to adapt to your comfort?” (Lambda)

It became Lambda who attacked Julia the opposite day.

Further/Bonus Act 1 – The scene that couldn’t be integrated into the primary story properly.

– Marina snapped at Strongest Sword.

※ Lior , who noticed Albert, made a idiot of his opponent.

“Wait a sec!? Don’t ridicule Nii-san!” (Marina)

“Who is that this Jou-chan? Doesn’t she need to reside?” (Lior)

“This woman is my sister-in-law.” (Emilia)

“What a cute Jou-chan!” (Lior)

“…It’s the primary reward that I’m not completely happy so completely happy about.” (Marina)

– The distinctive sensibility of Strongest Sword.

※ A scene the place Jii-san remembered the scene of Keith who acquired indignant being referred to as a cat as a substitute of a tiger.

“Eiii, that cat is noisy. Nicely, it could be fascinating if I combat in opposition to all children. They need to be like appetizers, isn’t it?” (Lior)

Within the sense of this battle-maniac previous man, such opponents like Reus and Keith appeared to be an appetizer of alcohol. After I considered it, I used to be in all probability the primary dish, and Hokuto and Zenodora’s group would in all probability be the facet dishes.

– Jii-san tried to take over the place.

When Jii-san was advised that Emilia had turn out to be my spouse, he acknowledged it whereas grinding her tooth.

“Look, for those who make Emilia cry, I can’t forgive you! I’ll reduce you off instantly!” (Lior)

“I used to be advised the same factor by Emilia’s Ojii-san.” (Sirius)

“What did you say? She has Ojii-chan aside from me!?” (Lior)

“Sure, now we have one. That jogs my memory, Lior-Jiichan is just not our actual Jii-chan anyway.” (Reus)

“If I kill him, I would be the true Jii-chan…” (Lior)

“You undoubtedly can’t do this. So, I need you to cease, alright?” (Emilia)

Further/Bonus Act 2 – When a Sword meets a Wolf and Dragons

Whereas chasing after Sirius, Strongest Sword, Reus and Beowulf arrived on the Hypne Continent. Then, they walked alongside the primary highway resulting in Sandor.

“Let’s hurry a bit extra, Tousen-san. It’s lastly potential to hitch Sirius-san and others.” (Beowulf)

“I do know. Goodness… what a trivial speak. Saying that there are monsters right here… I don’t really feel like coping with weak monsters.” (Lior)

Lior wasn’t solely chasing after him as he would go to problem anybody that had robust presence. Thus, their journey was so gradual that they couldn’t sustain with Sirius. The opposite day, he heard a rumor that an enormous wolf aside from Hokuto was seen, however he couldn’t discover it and it ended up in useless. Ultimately, Lior turned moody due to the wasteful method of strategy, however then, he observed one thing and regarded up on the sky.

“Ooh, there are robust dragons flying.” (Lior)

“Eh? The place is… eh, for actual!? You’ve got discovered it properly.” (Beowulf)

Beowulf might see the dragon flying over the sky, however really, it was so distant that he couldn’t acknowledge what it was till he was advised. He regarded up on the dragon with admiration.

“Hmm, I nonetheless can’t decide that. However… it appears to be robust. It appears totally different from these dragons.” (Lior)

“They’re dragons that may fly to that peak, and it’s fairly massive. It might be arduous if we get attacked.” (Beowulf)

“I need to problem it. Come down.” (Lior)

“Simply let it go. There are 5 of them, ?” (Beowulf)

Even when he might use the methods that shredded the bottom, he had regrets since he had no ability in opposition to the sky. Beowulf sighed at Lior who tried to name the dragons out loud, however he felt uncomfortable and twitched his mouth.

“Uhm… is one thing approaching?” (Beowulf)

“Hahaha! My want is granted from time to time! Come at me from anyplace!” (Lior)

“No no no!? Let’s run away, alright!” (Beowulf)

Lior was gladly ready himself, however the dragons modified its trajectory in the course of descent, and stayed on the peak the place his sword couldn’t attain. However because the dragons handed them by, a white wolf descended in entrance of them.

“Nuuu!? Th-this is…!?” (Lior)

“Eh? May it’s…” (Beowulf)

Beowulf, who had ready for battle, observed that the white wolf was Sirius’ associate, Hokuto. So, he relaxed his battle posture. However then, Lior instantly drew his sword and laughed.

“Nuhahaha! A powerful wolf is correct right here. Come, combat me!” (Lior)

“…Woof?” (Hokuto)

“This wolf is Sirius-san’s Beast Companion, . It appears he seems earlier than us due to sure circumstances…” (Beowulf)

“Nurryyaaaa!” (Lior)

With out listening to what Beowulf stated, Strongest Sword… or slightly, the silly swordsman, swung his sword with out hesitation. Nevertheless, Hokuto, who had heard about what sort of individual was Strongest Sword, was calm and stored his distance whereas avoiding the sword swing with gentle facet steps.

“Nuhaha! Did you keep away from it simply!? You’re actually that man’s companion!” (Lior)

“Didn’t you hear what I stated!?” (Beowulf)

Hokuto was all of a sudden attacked. Though it was fantastic to combat again, Hokuto gave an adult-like response by not entertaining the previous man whereas preserving a sure distance. Beowulf was desperately making an attempt to cease Lior. Whereas doing so, the dragons who had circled, descended behind Hokuto. If Hokuto wasn’t there, folks would assume that this was a determined state of affairs, however Lior’s eyes had been on fireplace.

“Hahaha! Good, that is good! That is going to be a lethal combat!” (Lior)

[Aren’t they really on our side? I don’t think I want to fight them.] (Zenodora)

“…Woof.” (Hokuto)

It needs to be that method however… sure, Hokuto barked as if he was in a troubling state of affairs. However, Beowulf, who felt critically disagreeable due to that response, clung to Lior’s arm and stated the phrases he had thought.

“If you happen to combat them with out permission, Sirius-san shall be indignant with you! Are you certain it’s fantastic!?” (Beowulf)

“Hmm, I might ask for nothing higher! I’ll take him critically!” (Lior)

“Then… look, if Sirius-san will get indignant, Emilia-san additionally will get indignant! Are you certain you’ll be fantastic with that!?” (Beowulf)

“No, I’m not!” (Lior)

At that time, Lior withdrew his sword and Zenodora defined the state of affairs. As quickly as they heard that Sirius and others had been struggling, Beowulf turned apprehensive, however Lior acquired mad whereas placing all his energy into the entire physique… no, he was vexing.

※１

“Rattling it! How enviable! Take me with you!” (Lior)

[Enviable!? Even though you ask for it? Why are you so demanding?] (Mejia)

[Well, if he knows Sirius, we should take him. Alright, let’s have someone bring him.] (Zenodora)

[Eh!? I… I’m carrying Hokuto-dono.] (Rye)

[I will carry the man. But with such a stranger on my back… gohooh.] (Kuva)

[No no, I’ll carry the boy! My back is uncomfortable and I feel bad for that old man.] (Ai)

“One way or the other… I really feel sorry for him.” (Beowulf)

[You seem to be struggling too.] (Zenodora)

“…Woof.” (Hokuto)

Apparently, their emotions had been transmitted no matter tribes.

In the long run, it was determined by Janken, which led to a slight delay in departure.
