Episode 616. War and War (8)
“You are here.”
Hetia noticed the change and turned her head.
In a battlefield where only sounds echoed in all directions, the only sound of lightly walking footsteps.
Rather, it was the first thing that bothered my ears because it was a quiet sound.
Hetia glared at the boy walking among the rampaging monsters.
“Um... ... Surprisingly, it holds up well.
It's a bit difficult if you're persistent like this.”
“The real trouble starts now.”
It will be clear that the author is the instigator.
On the outside, he appears to be just a human boy, but he doesn't do anything funny because he is seduced by his appearance.
Hetia kicked the broken spear, grabbed it, and threw it at the boy without hesitation.
Bouton, the reincarnated person who created and led those monsters, caught the flying spear lightly as if snatching it, and broke it with only his grip.
“Young people don’t have any manners.”
“It's better than doing this when you're old!”
Hetia rushed at once and threw her palm.
Her palms turned into those of a griffon, and sharp claws grabbed Bouton's face and tried to tear it apart.
However, Bouton blocks it by lightly entwining it with an arm that has changed like a snake's tail.
Not surprised. It was already expected.
“No doubt.”
From Hetia's back, something like a reptile's tail protruded and hit the ground like a staff.
As it was, he pulled Bouton's body with all his might and kicked it with both feet.
“Ugh!”
There was a dull sound and the feeling of something breaking at the same time.
The snake's tail loosened its hold on the arm, as if it had been eaten properly.
As it was, Hetia pulled her arms back and emitted heat rays from her mouth.
Bouton's whole body was swallowed up by flames with the power of a lower dragon's breath.
“... ... Are these the only reincarnated people?”
Hetia caressed her wrist, which had turned back to normal, as if she was tired of it, and clicked her tongue.
“Still, compared to the other guys, Bonno thinks he's on the side of getting through the conversation.”
Bouton, who stood up while brushing off the flames clinging to his body, smiled casually and spoke to me.
“Even Bonno was a little surprised when he spewed fire. No matter how much it is, if an overgrown wife spews fire like that, would she use it?”
“Don’t meddle. Even if it looks like this, all the ugliness has already been seen, so no one can say anything about it.”
Responding roughly to his joke, Hetia gritted her teeth.
As expected, the blow from earlier hadn't even been eaten.
There was also one thing that bothered me.
“by the way... ... Hmmm... ... indeed... ... Did that happen?”
For some reason, Butten glanced at Hetia and gave her an interesting look.
She clenched her fists in displeasure at that fact.
“Clear those eyes. It's reluctant.”
“Don’t get me wrong. It just made me feel nostalgic for a moment.”
“What'?”
“I'm sorry. I never thought you would call yourself the queen of a different species and no one else.”
“What do you mean... ...
It's not even worth listening to the bullshit the enemy says.
Still, Hetia had no choice but to ask.
Actually, it bothered me.
A problem that Centaur representative Furetel pointed out in the previous meeting as well.
Why does that monster have similar characteristics to Hetia herself?
“Are you also related to black magic?”
“Looking at you asking that. I had no idea... ... but. At that time, I had to pack my things in a hurry, so there was nothing special.
In the first place, I didn't even know that those idiots dared to lose Bonno's research results.”
Hetia shook her head annoyedly when the dwarf representative carrying the hammer asked a question.
It's a long-awaited expectation, but it can't live up to it.
“So, from now on, I will regard it as a monster and hunt it.”
When the order was given, a stream of water came pouring down, filling the area around Bouton and locking him in the water.
It is the magic of the sirens and those who live in the water.
As people who live in water, their skills in handling water are excellent.
It's not just about trapping it, it's about controlling the buoyancy in the water.
Bouton tried to escape from the water by creating rakes from his body, but he realized that no matter how much he moved, he couldn't move forward.
“hmm? You can't swim normally?”
“It's too late to realize!”
Warriors popped out from all sides, striking greatswords from every direction.
It is likely that the power of the sword will drop in the water only if it is struck in a fish tank, but it is also assisted by the sirens so that the speed of the sword does not decrease even in the water.
The greatsword stuck in Bouton's body soon changed like a slime and became the shackles that bound him.
No matter how strong he is, he will not be able to move even for a moment as he is surrounded by hard metal in a space where he is not free.
“Didn’t you tell me? I have no intention of fighting you properly. I'll keep you stuck forever.”
After that, he intended to mobilize all the sealing ceremonies that had been handed down from generation to generation and put them in a place that no one could reach.
No matter how strong a creature imitates.
As long as it is a body, there are some bonds that cannot be escaped.
“You were arrogant, you bastard.”
Hetia tried to order the use of the sealing ceremony while pronouncing.
... ... But when she realized that there was a mocking laugh in her eyes, as if Booten was ridiculed.
“Ugh! Hurry.
It's already late.
I thought that Bouton's body was faintly emitting light, but didn't his body pass through the fish tank with the shackles intact?
Warriors rush to block it, but their blades go through Bouton's body.
Instead, Bouton changed his arm into a sword and swung it, and only his sword cut through the warriors.
This time, it spreads its wings and shoots out feathers.
The strangely swollen feathers exploded all at once as they fell on those assisting with bows and magic.
“This bastard!!”
Hetia was enraged, and at once closed the distance and swung her fist.
But didn't her fist also pass through Bouton's faintly flickering head?
“What?!”
Without even time to be startled, this time the back of her head was hit by Booten's strong arm.
As she fell to the floor, he reached out and grabbed her head.
“It is useless. didn't you say to imitate all beings. Then, of course, even non-corporeal beings can imitate 1-”
from spirits to monsters with mana phenomena such as banshees and ghosts.
The materials of all of them were covered and reproduced.
Normally, they would be ignored, but Butten researched them assuming that even they are creatures made of mana.
That means you can mimic even their characteristics.
As a result, he was able to completely spiritualize his body and escape from all physical interference.
“There is only one reason Bonno was dispatched here. No matter how diverse your race is, it has no meaning in front of Bonno.”
“... ... Noisy you damn bastard.”
Hetia reached out and used magic to attack, but it didn't work either.
It was difficult to help her because the other warriors were already in a mess.
“Now, this is my last recommendation. What should I do?”
Bouton grabs Hetia and lifts her up, trying to hear the answer as if it were a last word.
But instead of answering, Hetia just spit in his face.
“Stop the senile noise... ... monster.”
“... ... I'm sorry. You have no discernment.”
Bouton clicked his tongue and raised his other arm as if he was genuinely sorry rather than angry.
genocide will not
But it would be better not to have Kelia's leaders.
