Chapter 271: Chodai

TDADP chapter 271: Chodai

"Come at me anytime, anywhere"

"Huhh. Just because you´re a little senior, I'm going to get on with it!

Lalit and Flavia were facing each other in the garden of Yuu's mansion.

"Haaaaaaa!!"

"Araaayoo"

Flavia slashes at Lalit. However, Lalit parries it with the Damascus dagger in his right hand without difficulty.

(Come!)

Flavia's favorite is a left-handed spear hand without a weapon. If she decides her spear hand with the sharp claws of a cat, it is easy to pierce a human's neck instead of tearing it.

"It's a visible feint"

Lalit avoids Flavia's spear hand, then grabs her wrist and throws her away. Flavia that flew into her air lightly spun in the air and landed and she immediately ran toward Lalit――

"At this level, I'm――nyaa!?"

Flavia bursts loudly and she plunges into the ground from her face.

"Wh, What happened!?"

"It's a trap made of grass"

As Flavia turned around, she saw a trap made by connecting grass to grass.

"Since when"

"You didn't notice it because it was in the grass, did you? I usually set traps with steel thread. If this was a ring made of steel thread, Flavia's ankle would have blown off by now. Well, it is admitted that there is only a beastman and the physical ability is high. But, the attack is too honest. Scouts have to be cunning. It's also important to protect your friends from traps"

"Kuu....... I know!"

In a place a little away from Lalit.

"Taaaa!!"

Monique holds her obsidian tower shield large enough to cover her body and releases her shield technique 『Shield Charge』.

"Ah, good. It's a shield charge with a good waist"

Eckart uses the shield technique 『Stone Wall"』 to strengthen his whole body like a stone and take it.

"Still more to come!!"

Even if the charge is stopped, Monique doesn't give up and boldly continues to push the giant Eckart.

"Gushish, you have guts. Your body is great, but you need more to be a good shield job"

"I don't think it matters how big you are!"

The reason why Lalit and Eckart are in the garden of Yuu's mansion is that despite the breach of negotiations between Gonbugur and Yuu, Gonbugur was tenacious and the discussion lasted for hours. Moreover, when Gonbugur, one of the three great craftsmen, visited, it became known that Yuu founded a kingdom and was a king, so the adventurer's guild became a big fuss. With this, Yuu couldn't talk with Lalit and Eckart in the Adventurer's Guild, so Yuu invited them to his mansion. What Lalit and Eckart saw there was a terrible sight. It is the appearance of Agafon´s party who have been completely beaten up by Joseph. Joseph, who wasn't sweating, half-forced them to train Agafon´s party as soon as he saw Lalit and Eckart.

"Even so, they are fine, even though Sir Joseph has beaten them up"

Beyond Lalit's line of sight was the appearance of the rest of Agafon´s party wielding their weapons while screaming and the appearance of uninvited guests. Tropi the leader of the 『Red Meteor』clan and Moran, Apri and Memet of the 『Gold Moon Blossom』clan. For some reason, Moran´s group followed Lalit, even though Yuu hadn't invited them. And is it no longer possible to just stare from the side? They started to join in the training as it was.

"Oraa!"

"It's a beastman-like force blow!"

Moran tries to parry Agafon's hard sword with the sword technique 『Willow』.

"What!? This!!"

Moran thought it was just a brute force blow, but he couldn't completely parry Agafon's wielding sword and his position collapsed slightly.

"Ossha!"

"Don't underestimate!!"

"Guaa"

Moran prioritizes attacks over repositioning and shoots his sword technique 『Strong Flash』. The sword swung sideways blew Agafon together with the sword away. But Moran was surprised. At first, he was thinking of training the subordinates.

"Moran, what's wrong? I'm still lively"

"Cheeky. Maybe Moran-san! I'm far higher in adventurer history and rank than you!"

"Tsk, noisy"

"Ah? Are you deceived by the strength of a rookie!"

"I´m not deceived"

Many beastmen do not aim to improve their skills because of their physical abilities. Although Agafon's sword arm is still rough, it was a sword that was so trained that it could not be worn overnight. Moreover, the 『Combat』 worn during the battle was not disturbed. Even in the vanguard position of a D-rank adventurer who belongs to Comer City, there will be no half who can keep 『Combat』 undisturbed during battle.

"You're a rookie, but you're going to keep 『Fighting』, right?"

"I'm not at all"

With that said, Agafon sees Yarm crossing swords with Apri.

"He was called Yarm. It's not stable yet, but to be honest, I'm surprised that he's using the 『Combat』flow"

For vanguards who mainly engage in close combat, 『Combat』 is basically a mystery. The inexperienced ones『Combat』 is inefficient due to their magic power. When you become an adventurer from D to C rank, you can use 『Combat』 efficiently. In addition, some C-rank adventurers wear 『Combat』 called "flow" so that it flows throughout the body and use it more efficiently. Yarm, who is not even D-ranked, uses that flow, though it is not perfect, so it is not unreasonable for Agafon who is also a vanguard to be impatient.

"We still have more to come"

Agafon thought that the strongest of their party Otope couldn't be defeated if it was a decent match, even if the opponent was a high-ranked adventurer. Otope is completely not able to get a solid hit from Tropi.

"No shortage for opponents"

"Eh, I´m here"

Otope thrusting spear technique 『Spiral Strong』and 『Spiral Soft』, but before the onslaught, Tropi who wears armor created by earth spirits can afford it. Not losing her expression.

"I'm troubled because there are a lot of hot-blooded people among vanguards"

Memet, who teaches magic to Beibu and Akane in the shade of a tree, puts out his tongue and mutters 「Uhhh」 in the appearance of the hot Agafon and Moran. This is intentionally showing a humorous appearance in an attempt to ease the tension of Beibu and Akane who met for the first time.

"But Agafon and the others are always protecting me, so I can use magic with peace of mind"

"Beibu, don't talk to such a human woman"

"A, Akane, not good. Say that"

Akane, a high pixie who hates humans, sits on Beibu's head and reveals her hostility.

"......As Akane says. Beibu have a great teacher, I, so he doesn't need Memet"

"Mouu, Lena says that kind of mean thing again. Adventurers have to get along with each other. By the way, show me that awesome cane"

"......No. This is the precious cane I got from Yuu, I won't let anyone touch it"

"What a great teacher! I and Beibu are taught how to use magic and magic power from Momo, so you are not a teacher!"

"......!? Disciple's rebellious period"

"Ahahaa, Lena and I are the same"

Beibu and Akane also smiled because of Memet's laughter.

"By the way, where is that Momo-chan? Oh, over there?"

As Memet looks around, she quickly finds Nina and Namari. Yuu and Joseph were confronting each other in the line of sight of Nina and others.

"Oh, Yuu and master will interact"

"Nyaa!? Look!"

"Hey! Moran, I'm going to the leader"

"You're telling me to throw it away! I'll go too"

Agafon´s group who were practicing also gathered around Nina and others.

"Vanamo"

"Yes, older sister"

In response to Marifa's call, Vanamo, who was tattered by Joseph, comes. If you look at it, the other slave maid apprentices may have been rolled to the ground many times and the maid clothes are muddy and miserable figures.

"What does that mean?"

"What is it?"

"That go-I'm asking what it means for Joseph to be alive."

"Th, that......with our power, that......was it okay to kill it in the first place? If you could tell me first, it would be poisonous――"

"Vanamo will be serious! It's decided to be a joke of older sister. Isn't it? Older sister――uhee......I'm going to be serious"

Marifa has a mysterious expression to Tin's words.

"Yuu, you want to borrow my chest"

Joseph happily talks to Yuu, carrying the Holy Sword Holy Flame and the Cursed Sword Ice Devil on his shoulders.

"Borrow your chest? How long do you intend to be superior?"

Yuu, on the other hand, is dual wielding the black dragon light and the black dragon sword wet crow, as opposed to Joseph's two swords.

"Is it a rebellious period? I know, I had a bad experience"

"Tell me"

The pressure released by Yuu and Joseph while tapping a light mouth makes Nina and others see the space around them distorted.

"Namari-chan, who do you think will win?"

"Odono-sama!"

Namari answers Nina's question in no time. Momo sitting on Namari's head seems to have the same idea, raising her arms and cheering for Yuu.

"Even without sword skills and magic, it's a waste to get money to see the battle between older brother Yuu and Joseph-san"

"Even if you are the leader of 『Red Meteor』, I will not allow you to make master a show"

"Older brother Yuu, I'm scared of Marifa-san"

"What!?"

Marifa tries to catch Tropi, but Tropi moves quickly and passes by Marifa.

"Your owner is scary"

Koro and Ran turned away from Tropi as she said, asking her not to get them involved, who talks to them while stroking.

"Tropi, wait!"

"Mari-chan, it's about to start!"

Marifa, who was chasing Tropi, stopped moving to Nina's words. She lined up next to Tin, as if nothing had happened.

"Always coming――oh!?"

Without waiting for Joseph to finish speaking, Yuu jumps and slams his sword over Joseph's head.

"Ha......fast....... Flavia, did you see the movement now?"

"I couldn't see it......"

Agafon, who couldn't even catch Yuu's movements, asked Flavia, who has excellent visual acuity and the answer was the same.

"Good, it's a heavy sword that you can't see easily"

Joseph smiles when he receives the sword by crossing with the Cursed Sword. However, from that expression, you can't feel the leeway.

"That´s good"

Joseph tries to push the sword back, but faster than that, Yuu kicks in the air and is behind Joseph.

"The one who kicks the air I saw before"

Without looking back on Yuu´s attack from behind, Joseph catches it with the Holy Magic Sword.

"If you take it too seriously, it won't be a study for Agafon and others, right?"

"Noisy"

Yuu, who has begun to exchange swashbucklers in earnest, shines his eyes even though they can't follow the movement with their eyes.

"It was amazing!"

"Is that what we should aim for?"

Agafon and Yarm are excited and exchange words. In the end, Yuu and Joseph swashbuckled for about thirty minutes, but they couldn't settle it. It was a natural result, as each other wasn't serious about it, but Joseph was still happy. After completing the training, Marifa and the others cleverly install rugs and tables in the garden.

"So what are the stories of Lalit and others?"

Yuu talks to Lalit over a cup of Marifa's brewed tea.

"Ah? Yes, I completely forgot it, because of Yuu and master's swashbuckler"

"Ode has a map of 『Bewitching Tree Garden Labyrinth』"

"Actually, I and Eckart were asked by a clan to help them capture the 『Bewitching Tree Garden Labyrinth』. The clan's lord has a little debt to me and Eckart. That's why the other party wanted to capture the bottom layer, so I thought that Yuu would have a map to the bottom layer"

"What's that? Agafon, do you have a map?"

"Yes!"

Yuu hands the map received from Agafon to Lalit.

"Is it okay? It helps you"

"Thank you"

"Don't overconfide the map because the labyrinth changes like a living thing"

"I know. That's the price of the map"

"Okay. Agafon is okay with it too?"

"Ussu! It was originally added to the map given by leader"

Lalit and Eckart bow to Yuu and others to thank them. Next, Yuu looks at Moran and others.

"We 『Gold Moon Blossom』 have already captured the『Bewitching Tree Garden Labyrinth』"

Moran stands up from his chair and proudly stretches his chest.

"We want a map and information about 『Rotten World Enrio』"

Apri apologizes for telling Yuu a request.

"Moran, I'm embarrassed, so sit down"

"What's embarrassing! The woman-only 『Gold Moon Blossom』wants to capture the C-rank labyrinth, which even men are struggling with it!"

Memet forces Moran to sit down.

"I also want a map of 『Rotten World Enrio』. I can't reveal the client, but I got a request for nomination for 『Red Meteor』. I can't refuse a little. So Yuu-chan, please give me a map of 『Rotten World Enrio』"

"Wait a minute! Would you like me to stop going sideways? I don't know if 『Red Meteor』is a major clan. We asked for it first!"

"Well, but I and Yuu-chan are connected by a thread that cant be cut"

Moran is terrified as she couldn't give up the map, but Tropi didn't seem to take a step back.

"Hmm, how much do you get?"

It was Yuu's word that interrupted the fight.

"Well, Yuu-chan, do you want to take money?"

"Aren't we friends who took the C rank test together?"

Vanamo, who was silently watching over the situation, murmured, 「What brazen?」.

"You gave it to Lalit for free"

"Lalit and Eckart have been acquainted with me since I came to Comer and I've never explored together with them. And why don't you give me a map and information about the B-rank labyrinth for free?"

"Somehow, I'll ask you! You see, Anita-san is so stubborn that you can't lower your head to Yuu"

"Isn't Yuu-chan's map more detailed than buying it from the Adventurer's Guild? Don't be mean, hey? Oh, that's right! Should I sleep with you?"

"Tropi! Stay away from master! What are you guys watching silently! Help to throw these shameless people out!!"

Namari, playing along with Joseph lying on the grass, mysteriously looks at the arguing Moran.

"Are they fighting?"

"No. they're spoiled by Yuu. Women of good age prepare for younger Yuu. Namari, are you okay? You´re――ouch"

A stone thrown by someone hit Joseph's head, who said something extra.
