"You are ... the one who fell from the sky ..."
The young knight looks down at the oka lying on the bed and mutters.
"My name is Justede, a knight who protects the Kars district.
I want to ask you a question, are you sure? "
"Yes, I'm Shinji Okazaki, a member of the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force. I can answer the questions that I can answer, but I also want to ask you."
"So let's talk. You heard that you're out of this kingdom of Esperanto. Is that true?"
"Yes, definitely."
"So what did you come for?"
"It was an accident. The flight instruments were out of order, and they were flying in visual flight. It seems that a very large bird was sucked into the jet engine and the engine failed."
The young knight, Justede, cannot understand the list of words whose meaning is unknown, and wrinkles appear in his eyebrows.
"Then, isn't the Kingdom of Esperanto worth it?"
"Yes, to put it simply, it's an accident."
A moment of silence.
"Well, how do you make the flying machine you were on?"
"The machine is too complicated to be understood by a graduate like me."
"Yes, I thought that if it could be made in Japan, it would be possible to shoot arrows from the sky, which would be a useful weapon."
He continues.
"by the way……."
Justice drew his sword and thrust it into Oka's throat at an unstoppable speed.
Oka, who is injured, has no reaction and hardens.
"You ... Isn't it really a monster? What is the true purpose of the recent invasion of the kingdom? Answer!"
An angry sound echoes in a quiet room.
"K ... Knight, stop it!"
Doctor Balsus stops.
"Please stop Justice!"
Doctor's daughter Saffine stops him.
In the eyes of Oka, fear of death comes to mind.
"Huh !!"
He holds his sword.
"The fear is in the eyes. The eyes of those who are not prepared to die, even as soldiers."
He continues.
"Can you believe that the kingdom is the last fort of mankind and that there are other nations? !!!!
In mythology, he promised a large-scale reinforcement, but nonetheless did not come. This is most likely an assassin sent by a demon. "
Justice rolls it up.
"But he said the flying vehicle was there, and we've seen many" human "corpses! ! "
Balsas refutes.
"Let's listen!"
The knight turns to Oka.
"You said you came from outside the continent of Grameus, so it must remain in myth!
Why did you not send us when our ancestors were struggling, despite promising reinforcements! ! ! "
Takaoka responds puzzledly to the unclear development.
"I heard that myths about the Demon King Army are all over the world, and the Kingdom of Topa remains particularly detailed.
But I'm from Japan, so I don't know much about the myth of this world. "
"While it is a human being, there is no reason to know myth!
"Please calm down and ask a question !! Calm down .... you are injured."
Safine shouts and the tone of the knight drops.
"Are you sure you want to ask me too?"
Takaoka asks the knight.
"What?"
"You mentioned earlier that a monster has been invaded recently.
Is this country under systematic attack from demons now? "
"Yes! If you're a monster, you know, two blocks have already seen the demon invasion and more than 20,000 people have been killed."
"Nii ... 20,000 people! Did you get the city back?"
"Still."
Silence ... Balsus begins to talk.
"Okadono, this country can be called a walled country. By expanding the wall, we have expanded the range of human habitation.
Therefore, if one city falls, the entrance to that city is limited, so it is very difficult to recover it. "
Justede stands up.
"It's better! I'll report this at least once. Even if he's a monster, if he's one, it's fine if he's under the watch of the Knights."
He talks quietly with his mouth close to Oka's ear.
"Warning if you're a human. Don't touch Saffine. That's the woman I'll make my wife in the future."
"What?"
The knights have left.
◆◆◆
One week later-Morning
Shinji Takaoka had recovered to the point where she could move to some extent.
Even if you crashed on an airplane and were carried when you were carried, you seem to have carried it without knowing it as a weapon. There are camouflage uniforms, bulletproof vests, hand grenades, and Type 89 automatic rifles in the room.
I talked to my daughter, Safine, and she knew little by little about the Kingdom of Esperanto.
This kingdom can be called a city-state with a population of about 300,000.
The entire city is covered with walls, and demons roam outside.
Originally, the country of descendants of the army that was dispatched as a Demon King Suppression Army in the mythological era, the world has been forgotten by the world.
People in this country seem to believe that they are the last survivors of mankind.
When the population increases to a certain extent, to create a city, the city walls will be created with a great deal of sacrifice and effort, and the residential area will be expanded.
The heart of the king's country is a natural fortress, with fertile land and water resources.
"It's like a world I heard somewhere ..."
He mutters.
―Tonton―
The room door is knocked.
"Breakfast. Please come."
Safine's voice can be heard outside the room. Oka washed her face and headed to the dining room.
"I will do it!"
The usual breakfast starts. Because the country is in danger of surviving, food is modest, umami is not considered at all, and bread is crisp. Nevertheless, Oka is grateful to them for giving their life savers free and letting them eat, even though they are not rich.
"Mr. Oka. How is your condition?"
Balsus asks.
"Yes, I feel like I can run already."
Takaoka laughs and answers.
"Haha, it's a level of injury that you can still manage to walk.
By the way, there seems to be something a scholar at the Royal Palace of Science wants to ask Mr. Oka.
Today, the country has told you to bring you to the crash site of a flying machine. Can you go? "
The crashed aircraft appeared to be already restrained by people from this country.
"... I understand. I don't know if I can answer, but let's go."
Takaoka starts preparing after a meal.
Because the knight has happened the other day, wear a bulletproof vest in your room and wear a camouflage suit.
Wear a helmet and put a Type 89 automatic rifle with live ammunition on your shoulder.
"Good!"
The gun is not recognized as a weapon, so it is probably transported to this room. With the guidance of a prepared doctor, Balsas, he entered the city of Esperanto.
◆◆◆
"Okay, let's go!"
Balsus speaks to Oka.
"But ... are you really going to go like that?"
Unlike the knight of the Kingdom of Esperanto, seeing that there is no piece of aesthetic sensation, Balsus has an inimitable expression.
"Yes, I will go with this clothes."
"Ah ... oh, let's go."
Carriage departed with Balsas, Oka, and Saffine, who never heard of him.
◆◆◆
The streets are lined with bricks and three-story houses, and carriages run slowly on cobblestones.
There is no elegance in the city, and the faces of the waiting people are dark.
It looks as if you are desperate for the world itself. Despair not knowing when death will come ...
After passing through the city, the carriage goes through a rural area with many fields.
Birds are singing and creatures like cows are eating grass slowly.
Sometimes, a dark hill appears on a small hill. C-2 crash site ...
When approaching the scene, there were several soldiers and several civilian figures.
The three okas get off the carriage.
"Come here!"
You can hear the voice familiar to Oka and the voice of a clear young man.
"Justed ..."
At that time, I was struck by a sword in my throat, but I remember the unfortunate event that shook with the fear of death, even though I couldn't move due to serious injury.
"This is it! The scholar of the Royal Palace of Science has something to ask you!
But ... if the soldiers don't have the courage, the cultural level seems to be lower than ours.
A barbarian? "
Justide throws it away. Oka kept his anger and headed to the crash site.
◆◆◆
"Oh! He came well! Your style is really exciting! I feel the difference in culture.
I am a scholar named Say of the Royal Palace of Science. nice to meet you! ! "
He is a slim, slightly weird man, asking for a handshake from Oka.
"Yes, thank you."
"By the way, was this created by your country?"
The scholar directs the crashed C-2 and asks Oka.
"Eh ... yeah, I heard that it was a domestic machine."
"Wow ... wow! I can't understand what's going on at all.
And, despite the fact that the output was as high as flying in the sky, no residual magic power was detected.
It's completely unknown. "
"Yes, it's not magic ..."
When Oka tried to talk,
Zune ...
And , a heavy bass sounds as if something exploded.
Everyone looks back in the direction of the sound.
"What ...!"
Smoke rises near the castle gate about 2 km away, and you can see that something has entered from outside.
"Well ... it's a monster !!"
Someone shouted and the neighborhood was noisy.
◆◆◆
My name is Justice, the last fort of mankind, the last nation, the kingdom of Esperanto. Nobles of the royal capital flowing to the capital city of Rixal, the second son of the prosperous Wyvreux family, Justice Wyvreux.
As a nobleman, I joined the Knights as a duty to protect the country.
There, he refined his tactical thinking, studied sword skills, and gained the title of the Knight, a symbol of the height of sword skills.
Soon, he was assigned to a remote area called Karls district.
It is an important task to protect the food of the kingdom, but as expected it is a district where there are only the countryside and many elderly people ... But I meet an angel one day.
Safine, the doctor's daughter, is a commoner, but when she saw her care for the injured, her back struck.
Protect her from this defeated world whatever you do. I swore to my heart.
I have approached it many times, but I haven't seen it.
In this world without hope, outside the kingdom is hell, but there is no angel in the country ...
One day, an unknown object falls from the sky.
It seems that one living person was brought to the doctor's home and the other died.
I made an excuse for Saffine, and I went to her house with excitement.
According to Dr. Balsas, the doctor is a young man of race and sometimes talks with Saffine happily ...
Jealousy.
Emotions that have never been felt run around the body.
The man is a soldier from outside the Kingdom of Esperanto. I don't know if it's true or lie.
At least he was trained, but he wasn't ready to be a soldier at all.
When I hit my sword, there is fear of death in my eyes. Even if I fought such a man, I wouldn't lose at all.
Today, the man wore a green-colored mottled ethnic costume, put an iron cane on his shoulder that he could not understand what he was using, and came to this location ... the crash site of an unidentified aircraft.
Its appearance is far from chivalry and beauty. In short, it is a barbarian with a low cultural level.
"A barbarian ...?"
I faced the man and just came out. Saffine's impression must not be bad, so he has to be quiet.
However, if they had their shoulders, that folk costume would blend into the surrounding scenery and be harder to find if they fled to forests.
It may be the ideal clothes to survive in the outside world where monsters move around.
Suddenly the deep bass that roars nearby, he looks in the direction of the sound.
"!!!"
From the castle gate, black smoke rises and many black objects appear to be entering human settlements.
"Well ... a monster invasion !!"
He looks back at the Royal Palace of Science and Technology and Saffine.
Only about a dozen people, including myself, are on hand.
Protecting scholars of the Science and Technology Agency was his mission.
"Wow !!"
From the barracks near the castle gate, many soldiers have already begun fighting in response to the invading monsters.
The sound of the sword hitting the club and the occasional destruction of monsters further strained those nearby.
A subordinate approaches and reports.
"Justide Orthodox Knight! Called by the Watchmen! The enemy soldiers invading the castle town, Goblin 200, Orc 10, Oak King 2, and Jet Black Knight 1 have been confirmed."
"What ... what ?!"
Speechless …….
"Oh ... Oak King 2 and Jet Black Knight 1!"
Goblin, this can be managed.
Orcs, this is something that could be managed if soldiers make organized moves.
However, the orc king is 2 bigger than the orc and has intelligence, so he covers his entire body with iron armor and plays bows and arrows and swords. In addition, if you eat a large ax blown from overwhelming muscles that far surpass human beings, it is like a child's play such as human swordsmanship.
In fact, in the past, the invasion of the Orc King mixed, he said, there was no way to resist them, but rather to cost them considerable sacrifice and invite them to cut their stamina.
Two such monsters have come to this town on the outskirts, where the troops are thin. Moreover, in this report, one jet-black knight has been confirmed.
Jet-black knight ... It has the strength of an orc king, covers all its bodies with jet-black armor, and swings a large sword that can not be handled by humans, but its sword skills and sword speed are beyond the master. He has appeared on numerous battlefields and has made great sacrifices, but no one has yet.
Soon after he was reported, two Oak Kings and a jet-black knight on a large horse appeared from the gate.
"Wow !!"
Soldiers from the barracks kick the avant-garde goblin and rush towards the jet-black knight.
When the strongest person is beaten, the other zakos have the property of scattering, so they head straight for the jet-black knight.
◆◆◆
(What the hell is going on? What is the enemy attacking?)
Takaoka is stiffened by the apparent “battle” taking place in front of him and seizes the Type 89 automatic rifle.
The army in this country shoots arrows at enemies, and cavalry charges with a spear.
However…….
Small monsters and monsters like big pigs, almost naked, seem to be defeated, but the large monster in armor literally appeared to have no blade.
"Voo !!"
Within his visual range, a large monster shakes a large ax, and humans fall apart.
This is a battlefield, unquestionably "It's a battlefield !!"
He starts to analyze what he can do and what he can do now.
(Is it okay to intervene in a conflict in another country as a legitimate defense? No, but monsters should have been treated as harmful birds and beasts. If you defeat the three bottlenecks, the local soldiers will manage It seems to be.)
When Takaoka was worried, a big knight from the enemy team ... wearing a jet-black armor, a knight with a large sword that never swinged by a human popped out, and headed straight for a single horse.
◆◆◆
"I ... a jet-black knight is coming!"
Subordinates scream and shout.
A knight that nobody has ever beaten ... A symbol of death and fear comes here.
The cause may be that the king's flag (not the national flag) is standing at the crash site. The last fortress to protect.
"Don't panic! Only one enemy is coming! Prepare your piercing line! Miles, Cairo, and Cornell will shoot their bows!"
In fear, he gives precise instructions.
The enemy jet-black knight approaches them at a speed that can not be considered a horse.
"I'm coming! Hold the bow!"
Three soldiers bow at enemies.
"Shoot !!!"
Pulling to the limit, the bow and arrow released flies straight toward the enemy, but the knight knocks them down with a large sword swing.
"Hi!"
The soldier's face attracts fear.
The soldiers thrust out their spears all at once, but they take on a large sword blow from their overwhelming muscular strength that cannot be reached by enemy humans, and fall into the air as they fall apart.
Justice, a regular knight of the Kingdom of Esperanto, was blown away by a fragment of a soldier who had flew due to a jet-black knight's blow.
"Nup !!!!"
The proud armor polished to white silver and the cloak rolled on the ground smoothly.
The enemy ignores him like a stone around it and makes full use of a huge horse to go straight to a scholar at the Royal Palace of Science.
"Well ... bad!"
Justede shouts.
Suddenly, two robed men appear in front of the scholar.
"Gaouane4gtrfiahate //// \\ eai"
Speak like a spell that you can't hear well.
"Hell Exploitation !!"
A pale spherical object is created at the tip of the hand protruding from the two men. The light bullet is fired at the jet-black knight.
He was a great sword, and it was easily stripped off, creating a violent blast around him.
The strength is real and there is no way to do it ...
"Wow!"
"No more!"
"Choo !!!!"
A scream echoes around you.
Except for one foreigner, fear dominated.
◆◆◆
Shinji Oka, who belongs to the Japan Ground Self Defense Force, prepares for shooting with a Type 89 automatic rifle as trained.
When a big knight, dressed in jet-black armor, and a big horse headed, he was wondering if he could use weapons in other lands.
The next moment he lost, Justice's men were quickly swept away with a great sword and died.
If you weren't at a loss, they might not have died ... The remorse, and the apparent killing directed at Saffine and Balsas who saved him and hisself, will dispel his hesitation.
Takaoka started preparing for the fire quickly and accurately, holding a gun at the enemy and triggering without hesitation.
