- Episode 4
Yes, first of all, it is punishment.
Let's beat it up to our heart's content for now and then think about it.
“Kuh! Stop laughing!”
“Did you know you’d get hit right?!”
Of course, there's no way these guys will be beaten so easily. Perhaps they were trying to rebel, each of them drew out all the energy they had hidden and charged towards me.
The one who rushed in first drew a large sword out of the air and swung it at me.
A strong blade of sword flies towards me.
“hmm... ... Well, it's just like that.”
I hit it moderately with my fist and literally broke it.
Caang! A clear metal sound resounded, and the blades scattered as it were, and I swung it with my arm to hit the fragments.
Papa papa papa pat!
Fragments began to bounce back toward them and attack them.
Similar. Like shrapnel from a grenade, the pieces of metal I broke were raining down on them.
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh?!”
“Don’t dodge, block!”
They each mobilized their own defense methods to stop it, but nothing happened. Even if it looks like an ordinary fragment, it contains my own strength.
If you don't have the inner strength to compete with me for a while, even defense won't be easy.
At once, their posture collapsed and their spirits were shaken.
‘You're weak... ...
Anyway, that's my standard. If each one of them intervened in human society as normal, they would become capable enough to go down in history.
Even the guy who wielded the sword a moment ago was enough to come and surpass the limit of a master.
but... ... .
‘It's far short of our standards.'
Skills are not bad, but experience is lacking. That's my impression as a professional.
“also... ... Are they just leftovers?”
“What are you talking about!”
“Ah, done. Let's continue with what we've been doing.”
First of all, it's important to take the initiative by beating it once. I smiled and immediately moved my body lightly and stepped on the steps.
“Let’s start with sequencing, shall we?”
“Hey, hey!”
The guys are shaking their eyes in astonishment. Did you really think that I would wait leisurely like some final boss?
It's ridiculous.
Even if I pretend to be the demon king, I'm the type to step on the village directly from the beginning of the tutorial.
“First of all, you.”
I immediately closed the distance towards the child who had just swung the sword.
Swoop. Without sound, dust, or afterimages, my body moves all at once to his nose.
Perhaps, in his gaze, it would appear as if I had suddenly appeared in front of him without any warning.
“Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
As if in desperation, he struck down the newly drawn greatsword, but as if I was knocking lightly! He hit it with his fist as if knocking it off.
“It took too much energy.”
Right away, my fist lightly hit his uvula.
That alone is enough to break his posture.
“big... ... Suck!”
Before he even has time to exhale, he immediately launches an additional blow.
Usually, after this, it's standard practice to hit vital points without a break.
‘... ... I don't need to kill him.'
On a whim, I deliberately avoided only vital points and hit them.
Papa papa papa papa papa papa!
In less than a second, dozens of sounds hitting the air reverberate, and the creature trembles.
It might taste like death because I deliberately only hit places that weren't vital. No, is it nasty enough to not die?
Sometimes fire is the most cruel.
“Turn off... ...
“It’s okay, I’m shutting it up.”
Quaang!
In the end, he tramples on his head and slams it on the floor.
This is the end of one guy. Simple, right?
The guy just trembles with his arms and then droops.
“Hey hee hee hee hee profit?!”
“Is the Lord dead?”
what a terrible thing didn't kill
Even if it looks like this, I prefer the method of boldly taking care of myself if killing is not necessary.
Of course, the problem was that most of the trash I'd encountered so far were killers.
“Should I be prepared for the rest?”
“... ... What if I surrender here?”
However, the guys seemed hesitant to confide in it easily.
Maybe it's hard to trust me.
“Then shall we try to guess?”
“Most of the things you stole were food and daily necessities. It's simply too much for a few of you to eat.
Even more so, he took it and immediately set his eyes on our luggage.”
“Couldn’t we be gluttons?”
“Ha ha ha ha ha ha. It's funny.”
That absurd excuse would be no different from evidence.
“In short, it means that there are beings who have to feed them, right?”
Do you have dependents?
“I don’t deny it.”
Well, they wouldn't have any grounds to deny otherwise.
“... ... Let me ask you one thing.”
” What?”
“Really what we do... ...
“ah. do not spoil I promise you.”
I know what you're worried about. I'll bet that the captain of the previous ones would have destroyed them all as soon as he saw what they were hiding.
I am? Let's be honest.
“I will be honest. I don't care what you do.”
“Whether you run the country or what you do is none of my business. More than anything, it's annoying to interfere. Believe it or not, I want to play as much as possible in this lifetime. So unless it's more wrong than necessary, I won't touch it.”
Of course there will be exceptions.
“I won't interfere unless you're raising an army of one million assassins or something like that.”
“That kind of thing... ... Do not.”
“Then I have nothing to complain about, can I be honest with you? right?”
“... ... All right.”
It was only then that they nodded as if they had made up their mind, as if they realized that there was no reason to catch them.
“then... ... Please follow me.”
Not just to explain, but to show you.
Maybe these guys were worried too.
If I set my mind to it, it would be easy to ruin it, so I must have given up on it.
“ah. Did that happen too?”
I nodded my head as I looked at the place I immediately saw.
The place they brought was the city they ruled over.
It is the place where non-reincarnated people were confined as if they were conducting an experiment and allowed to live.
Of course, now that they've fallen, the city's function has been fulfilled, so I won't live there anymore.
“.. no way?”
If so, that was a blind spot.
“yes. That's right.”
And they also confirmed my guess.
“There are still humans living here. ... ... To be precise, he is a man who never gave up on his hometown.”
if... ... really if.
Let's imagine that suddenly an unexpected situation strikes them who were living peacefully.
A war breaks out and the city they lived in collapses.
And suddenly, strangers appear and force you to start a new life somewhere else, since you have no home.
Will it roll well?
Only this can be stated with certainty.
Uneasy.
‘I told those guys to do the clean-up afterward as much as possible... ...
I sighed deeply and wondered which one I should grab by the collar and shake first.
In front of my eyes, I could feel the presence of a considerable number of humans. It looks like he hid his presence with magic or all sorts of spells, but it's clear that he's here.
Humans still live here.
More than 10,000 by an estimate.
“... ... Since when are these guys?”
“Since that day, people from all over the world have come.”
There is no reason to neglect discussions for post-war treatment. As mentioned before, the humans who have lived here for generations under management are innocent.
I've stressed it out to everyone over and over again. As a result, we decided to treat humanely only those who stayed here.
There are no exceptions. If he didn't listen, I was going to destroy him by all means.
“Most humans... ... Following the invitation and persuasion, I returned to the hometown of my ancestors.”
And what persuaded them was the logic of going back to their ancestors' hometown.
Fortunately, it was easy to find out where the humans were brought from. Because there was a record in Herial's library.
Based on that, it was carefully conciliated and sent back.
“But some humans have said this.”
Regardless of our ancestors, this is now our hometown.
... ... I mean. How
