(Alexander POV)

…damn it, my whole body ached! Well, at least when I checked this one before, it seems that I didn't have any broken bones… maybe only several of them were only splintered by that cobra's blow!!

Actually, for a moment I was quite scared at that time… I thought I would turn into a meatloaf when I received the blow of that huge tail! No, if it wasn't for the shield-type BIM taking a lot of the impact, I probably would have ended very similarly to how I imagined!!

Also… going through a wooden house didn't help much for my current situation! The good thing is that I end up landing on something soft… maybe I should give a little thanks to that guy who, “kindly”, cushioned my fall after being sent to fly creating a little parabola until I got here!

…I really should try to practice the [Metal Bone King] technique as soon as possible! That way my body will be a little more resistant! Or at least, by doing so, I won't have to worry so much about things like breaking my bones! 

Hell, it's too bad I couldn't find the herbs I needed for this in that ruined city… I hope others have better luck with this than me!

“ T-Thank you … snif… snif… t-thank you for avenging my parents, w-whaah~! ”

“…”

No, come to think of it, I didn't have any reason to thank that guy...it seems they were the ones responsible for making this little girl cry! It's a shame that I was a few minutes late to prevent her from having to shed tears like this… unfortunately, I couldn't do anything about it.

On the other hand… I was really bad at dealing with situations like this! I didn't like to see children cry... and I didn't know very well how to act in these moments either! The only thing I could think of was to pet her head until she calmed down a bit.

“ Yosh ~ Yosh ~”

There was also Shigure, who, seeing the little girl crying, joins me to comfort her. I'm sure if she can cry into those breasts of hers she will surely feel much better… after all, I always feel like I can achieve enlightenment and peace of mind when I do! Although, I must say this would work for me with any of the other girls as well...I'm not that picky about it.

…well, I get that that probably only applies to me, but…perhaps, even a little bit, this can offer more comfort to her. So I don't avoid when Shigure tries to hold the little girl in her arms.

“ Are you alright, Alex-san? ”

“…my injuries will probably recover in just a few days, but you don't have to worry about that. I'm a bit more worried because I had to consume several pills [Overdrive] to escape from that snake… now I feel quite tired.”

After Saeko sees that she could talk to me calmly now since Shigure was taking care of the little girl, she comes over and once again asks me about my condition showing concern on her face. 

This was probably unavoidable… I could barely stand up now, my legs were quite wobbly from the weakness I felt in my body!!

But, as I said, it was mainly because of those pills! After the strength-enhancing effect wore off, a great heaviness invaded my body and mind! Thank goodness these thugs were barely past the 5th limit of the 1st soul level, so it wasn't hard to take care of them despite my current state.

…I was lucky not to fall directly into strong enemies. At least it looks like that skill did its job this time… otherwise, this time I really have to complain about this one! 

No...in fact, I was already almost convinced that this one had no effect on me!

“E- Ermm … sniff … is he alright?”

“ Hn?”

Looks like Shigure's breasts really helped the little girl a bit... or at least it was better than if I had done something, she wasn't shedding rivers of tears anymore at least. Calmer now, she points to the person who had cushioned my fall... I thought she was just a good-hearted little girl who still cared about the lives of the people who hurt her, but... seeing that person again, I realized that something was wrong!

…if you paid closer attention there, which until now I couldn't do, you could tell that this person seemed to be 4 feet! No, it's not that he was some kind of mutant... which for some reason was the first thing I thought, it was rather that under that man there seemed to be someone else!

When I push aside the man's body, kicking him, I discover that there was also a little boy! H-Holy shit... n-now that I remember... I think I heard a child scream when I fell here! I thought it was the little girl, but it seems I was wrong!!

“E- Ermm … I think he's fine… he's just passed out. It must have been the surprise of everything before! ”

““…””

Yes, well... I didn't even believe that! It is sure that it was due to the previous blow!! 

Well… after I check his condition, he doesn't seem to be hurt… that much. His body only had a scratch or two, and he'll probably be fine in a short time thanks to the pill I popped into his mouth and made him swallow discreetly.

“Your friend will be fine… maybe just a little sore, but he'll be fine. Do not worry."

"I-It's just an acquaintance... s-so it's fine."

““…””

I had to repeat myself since the situation had become a bit awkward. Also, I don't know if it was because she saw that I felt a little bad for the boy, but… the little girl's words seem to be to make me feel better! She is a good girl!!

…it's a good thing the poor dude was passed out now, if not… he might have taken an even bigger hit than before! In his poor heart, of course! Be strong, little one!! You have to keep living… you can't give up because of this!!

"...what do we do now, Alex-san?"

After encouraging the little one without much luck in my mind, Saeko returns to the topic that should concern us the most now! I had several things that I had to check, like… where the hell were we now! Because things with that cobra happened too abruptly, I could only let the grimoire act almost automatically…so I had no idea where we were!!

Although... that can be fixed very quickly by summoning my grimoire and checking it out, so this isn't a big deal. The other matter on my mind was far more troubling…

The dimensional gate to return to Gaia is now in that devastated city! When we get back, then we'll have to face that big cobra again!! This is much more worrying!!

…in order to fight this one, it would be best if I was at least at the 5th limit of the second soul level. With that strength, I feel much safer to be able to face that snake without so many problems!

The problem is that it doesn't seem like I can reach such a level that quickly… much less because of how slowly I've been leveling lately! It could take several months... and if we are pessimistic, even a year for that! So I couldn't return to Gaia for all that time!

Yes, I can't change the location of the grimoire's dimensional gate to return to Gaia unless I'm in that location! Or to be more precise… doing it from here would cost me an enormous amount of crystals to do it! And it is an amount that I do not have!!

…apparently, since Gaia was a Great World, manipulating space there is not easy. The only exception is when I travel to another world from there!! That's why I didn't use it to transport myself from one place to another when I was there!!

The alternative I can think of to solve this is that Kurisu and Emilia-chan could complete creating Gaia's dimensional gate to [HOTD]'s world... if I transport myself together with the girls to that place from here, then I could use it to return to Gaia.

I'll have to talk to Kurisu for could do that… also, I hope their progress in this matter has been good. Well, anyway, I was stuck in this world at least until the one-month period for going to a new world was up.

"For now... we should leave this place."

"Ok"

"... shall we take the little girl?"

"...no, it seems that several people will come here soon... surely they will take care of her"

From my domain that I had extended to be aware of what is happening around us, I could detect several presences approaching here… so the first thing we had to do was get out of this house! 

I had just killed several people here... of course I don't regret this, but I didn't know if this could bring me complications! If the laws in this world are strict, that was most likely to happen. Either way, this would surely make them at least try to verify our origins... which couldn't be very good either! It was best to get out of here before something like this happened.

As for the little girl that Shigure was holding and didn't seem to want to part with… bringing her with us would only add to our problems! They might think we kidnapped her if we do! It was better to leave her here... even though Shigure and the little girl seemed reluctant to do so!

“ Angel -san, a-are you leaving?”

“A- Angel? 

No, well… we have to go little girl, but don't worry, some people will arrive soon to help you”

"I-I don't want... I want to go with the angel-san and the two older sisters~!"

Until now people had called me several things... but this is new! I don't know how to respond to the fact of the little girl calling me an angel I-I hope that the tingling I feel on my skin is my imagination and not due to something in my conscience…

Anyway, when she finds out that we intended to leave, the little girl runs up to me and clings to my armor tightly…this was a bit troublesome. In the end, after persuading her several times by the three of us, she finally agrees to this… although some gifts that we had given her also helped a lot.

…the two girls give her a small knife and throwing stars respectively. As for me, after considering it for a while, I decided to give her a copy of the Two-Sword Style Technique… and there was a reason for this... this little girl is a bit special.

Well… it seemed like she was still a child after all. I can finally see a small smile on her face at this.

“ W-Will we meet again, Angel-san? ”

“…perhaps, if luck allows… no, let's put the luck aside since it's better to stop trusting this one. Either way, grow up healthy and strong, little girl, and... and maybe we'll probably be able to see each other again! ”

“Y-Yes! I will be strong, Angel -san!! I promise!! ”

After our farewell with the little girl, the three of us go out and run to hide in a nearby place to observe a little what is happening around us while Saeko helps me stay on my feet since I was still feeling a little weak.

As I had sensed in my domain, it's not long after that a few more men arrive and quickly enter that house. They seemed to be some sort of law enforcement officers, so now we can feel relieved that they weren't complicit with the criminals I took care of.

"T-hen... where are we now?"

"Okay...let's check it out"

When I was trying to answer Shigure's question, suddenly the sun's rays announce its arrival... and then, before I could summon the grimoire, something makes me stop right then!

In the distance from where we were, I could see a huge wall… probably around 50m high! Seeing it… a very bad possibility crosses my mind!!

“…what's wrong, Alex-san? You look paler than before…”

"N-No, it's nothing... o-our luck can't be that bad, right?"

…Denying that possibility, I summon my grimoire while Saeko held my body that had started to tremble even more. So, after closing my eyes and praying to various gods I knew so that the name I didn't want to see wouldn't appear in the grimoire, I open them again to read the name of the place where we were...

“S-o we are in a world called Shingueki no Kyogin … I wonder what this world will be like?”

“…”

Shigure's voice brings me back to reality! Yes, it seems that we had arrived in that damn world!! Fuck!!!
