Monster Musume Harem wo Tsukurou! Chapter 102-103

Monster Musume chapter 102: Resurrection

Illuminated by the light of the magic circle, Almira-san´s appearance mysteriously emerges. A purplish black mist floats in the air so as to cover the surroundings. Tyres and Toururi are sandwiching from the left and right. The approaching large axe and numerous weapons collide with the mist and scatter intense sparks. It looks like a sand-iron haze made by magic. It has become a shield and it is preventing attacks on Almira-san. Although they were using weapons, they were firing two consecutive shots, but suddenly retreated at once. At the next moment, the s.p.a.ce where Tyres and Toururi were standing is blown off and the blast burns the air.

As those two retire, Yukurishisu plunges into Almira-san from the front. As if to predict the explosion point, she avoided it and closes the distance, but in front of the eyes, there is a mist that gathered as walls. I was thinking whether to thrust as it is, and suddenly split into small shadows before the haze. A black shadow with two wings flies while zigzagging. It is a bat. The bat went round the back of Almira-san and Yukurishisu appears. Mist is gathered in the front, while the back is square and the fangs pierce the back. But this time, Almira's appearance is scattered and appears slightly to the right. She hasn't been completely intact, because her right shoulder was ripped off. Almira-san shakes her hand and a ma.s.s of haze is released towards Yukurishisu. Despite trying to avoid it, Yukurishisu stepped on it as if she couldn't cut it away or cross her arms to defend herself. The mist collides against her arms and Yukurishisu's body floats in the air. She was pushed away and hit the wall. Despite being strengthened with magical power, her skin is sc.r.a.ped and the meat is exposed.

Because Almira-san is using mist to attack, her defense is thinning. Tyres threw his weapon, while Toururi kicked the ceiling and swung her axe. Almira-san, who defends against the thrown weapon with her mist, parries the axe with the mist as before. However, it seems that she couldn't avoid it this time. The axe aiming at her head turned down her left arm from her shoulder. Almira-san releases a black wave on Toururi-san’s belly who swept away with her axe, without minding her cut arm.

“Although it can be reproduced, hurt things hurt you know." Almira
“I agree with that. So, it would be helpful if you don’t resist." Toururi
“ You think so?" Almira
“No, not at all. Just an impulse, forget it.” Toururi

Blowing away the discharged mist, Yukurishisu comes back. The wrist has been sc.r.a.ped off by the mist, but smoke raises to cure it. Almira-san, who had her arm cut off, also got her arm back with a stupid face. As it stuck to the wound, magical power covered the entire arm and got glued in a blink of an eye.

“Battle of Immortals...who will exhaust the energy first? Let's compare our patience." Almira
“...... I cannot spare the time." Yukurishisu

C'mon, not only Yukurishisu but also Almira is an immortal.... I guess it is not everytime, but it is too difficult for me to beat them before they use magic.

“What should we do, older sister." Toururi
“Just because we are immortal, doesn’t mean we are the strongest. If you're restrained, you can't move, and you're powerless if you faint." Yukurishisu
“It's easy to attack. No matter how many imperial magicians are there, I’m the best.” Almira
“But if you activate that magic, I lose. Therefore, I have to do something about it." Yukurishisu

...The magic circle installed on the floor of this room is emitting light and you can't see anything covering the town. Are they hiding something on top of the magic circle? But still, someone in town will notice....

“I don't even know if someone would pa.s.s by it...but this is a magician's town, and if you draw it, someone will definitely notice it. Even so, no one noticed means that they planted it in a place where no one knows as long as they live normally."
“So, is there a place where no one can enter the town? Maybe it's drawn under a building. If you build something underground, n.o.body will pa.s.s."
“I see, it is drawn under the building! Underground waterways, underground waterways!"

It is always in a fairly large town of the empire and it is seldom visits as long as it is normal. Naturally, the size of the town would be the same, so there's no shortage of s.p.a.ce. Yes, that's all I can think of.

“The underground waterway is literally underground, right?” Tsuchio
“Then, I'll go flying and break it! Rin, come with me!” Ruu
“No, it is useless. If it is such an important place, they should be defending the entrance intensely. Ruu, you’re exhausted, therefore a breakthrough is difficult. Nichrome, do you know where the circle was drawn?" Tsuchio
“...Yes, it is slight, but there is a magical response. I understand that the magical power is rising just before the triggering, but until quite a while ago..." Nichrome
“It is quite concealed...so, can you pierce the cobblestone from here and break the magic circle of the waterways?" Tsuchio
“It's not a difficult thing...I'll try" Nichrome

Cracking the window gla.s.s, Nichrome comes out on the terrace and aims at the ground far below. Whatever I asked, I can't expect too much from Nichrome’s sniper. There is a good distance and it is located further down the stone pavement. The way to surely destroy the magic circle is....

“...If you disrupt the magical powers with magic, can you delay the invocation?” Nichrome
“I don't think it will be easy to manipulate. I think that we should consider the possibility of manipulating the magic circle." Tsuchio
“But I'm sure there's only so much I can do. If I can't do it, think of the next move. For now, I want to know just where the foundation of the magic circle is." Nichrome

Nichrome put her left hand on the line written at her feet. Then, the flow of magic has been transmitted as an image in her head. A lot of information flows at a stretch and she is attacked by a disgusting feeling like the time of motion sickness.

“Are you alright?” Tsuchio
“Ye, Yes. I don't care much about this...after all, is the center here? It descends along the wall of the tower and is connected to the bas.e.m.e.nt as it is. There are places where the magical power is strong and magic circles are created. Perhaps, they will inhale the magical power and life of those who are sacrificed from here." Nichrome
“Then, if you crush here, you can delay the completion of the technique!" Tsuchio
“That's right. Six in total...three in the northeast, east and southeast from here and three in the northwest, West, and southwest!” Nichrome
“It's just a place with a square. Under it, there might be a large s.p.a.ce. However, there are a lot of civilians who were manipulated. It's difficult to take aim." Nichrome
“The worst, you can get involved. Now, think about just stopping the magic...accusation, I will receive it." Tsuchio
“If such a thing is told, I can not get involved even more. Please be relieved, I am the strongest mechanical human." Nichrome
“Oh yeah, I ask for a snipe that pa.s.ses through the eyes of the net." Tsuchio
“As you wish." Nichrome

While Nichrome is trying to sniper the main points of the magical circle, I try to manipulate magical power. If I make the flow crowded, I can delay the invocation of the magic. I also can earn time for Nichrome to aim. Taking control of the magical power flowing through the line, I make it deviate from the path that originally flowed to another way. The part where supply stops and loses its radiance, is a part which is supplied in excess and strengthens the brightness. Yosh, if it keeps flowing like this, then the magic circle will burn out without being able to catch the magical power....

“You thought I would let you do it?" Almira

Almira started an attack at me. The blade that aimed at me is released, but Ruu and Lime defend me with their fists.

“If there is a use for Tsuchio." Ruu
“You need to pa.s.s through us first." Lime
“At all, I thought that people who don't have any use, can’t take control of the magic circle. You know interesting people, princess.” Almira
“Yes, he is a young man with backbones. Can you afford to take care of your magic circle?” Yukurishisu

Tyres attacks with his weapons from below. Almira-san, who guarded with haze, was blown off and Toururi was already waiting for her.  As she swings her axe by swirling, Almira avoided it by using her mist. Almira had many cuts on her skin and big lacerations on her thighs, which immediately regenerated through the mist. She is totally an immortal monster.

“Huu...It was hard to fight with the princess, but even if I join the defense of the magic circle there, it is tough for me as well.” Almira
“The playback speed is falling more than before and the consumption of magic is painful, isn't it?” Yukurishisu
“As you guessed." Almira

Well, was that speed falling? Well, when it's good, will it be instantaneous?

“Are you going to get caught and be judged or killed by us here? Choose whichever you like." Yukurishisu
“...Well, let's end the game soon." Almira

At that moment, Almira-san snaps her finger and the light of the magic circle gets stronger at a stroke. Those that were blushing like fluorescent lights transform into intense light like incandescent light bulbs. At the same time, something like a strong force works on me. I cannot move as if my limbs are poisoned and I kneel on the floor.

“...Wh, What.”
“What did you do to activate the circle? You said it was going to start soon, but that was a red lie. In fact, you were was able to trigger the signal at any time."
“Such a thing...you won't have any benefit. Why..."
“No, it's profitable. Can you see the hopeless face of the princess?" Almira

Even though the plan might be derailed, does that bother her? No, she was confident that she would succeed even if she fails.

“At last, it is the resurrection of Grannir-sama. Second Prince and Princess, you may well survive if you are lucky, so please pray to heaven at most." Almira
“Don't joke around..."
“You see, the magic circle has begun to take life. It's not a very rare experience, but please come and enjoy it." Almira

Something shining white emerges from the circle and flies out of the window. It is not something that you can see like blood or magical power. It is more like sucking out soulful things.... In the sense that my soul is stolen, cold sweat flows from my whole body and skin becomes irritated. There is only disgust. I can't give a gap to cause nausea and a gap to shed tears.

“This, is bad..."
“Wh, What, this..."

All the people in the place will have their souls sucked into the magical circle. There is no exception for Almira-san either.

“Why would you do that for my older brother..." Yukurishisu
“Grannir-sama is the reason for my existence. There is no worth to be in this world without that person. If it is for him, I will offer him everything of me, even if it is my own soul." Almira-san

As the white glow shines in the air, the magic changes. The head slowly floats in the air and the magic circle which shows up is wrapped. The magic circle which was moving up and down to examine something, moved to the bottom of the head. It rotates in the air under the head and the dwindled oval looks thicker as you go inside. In such a circle, the sparkling particles appeared and formed something. It is directly connected to the severed head. Roughly the size of a 180 cm tall man. A human body was formed.

“Aaa! Finally, he came back! A few years after being killed by that female fox, Grannir-sama finally comes back to this world! Let's save it in our memories to convey to future generations! " Almira

Particles are continuously pouring in from the surrounding magic circle. Gradually, the body seems clearer and starts building meat and bones. Large wings on the back and a thick and long tail from the waist can be seen. Yukurishisu would survive, but...we won't. Somehow, we must prevent the magic from being completed.

“Nichrome are you okay..." Tsuchio
“In this situation, for the first time I feel that there is a soul to me...if I could, I wanted this opportunity to not come." Nichrome
“If that's all you can say, it's still okay. Tsuchino, can you coalesce when the numbness weakens?” Tsuchio
『Haa!? Just a little while ago! I've said many times that it's not a good choice...』Tsuchino

“I know. Is it okay to be able to use a lot of magic in a moment?” Tsuchio

『...If it's really a few seconds, somehow.』Tsuchino

“Don't say it is impossible."

『It's, Tsuchio...when this commotion is settled, I will decide variously.』Tsuchino

“Roger that.... Nichrome, destroy the part of the circle you are aiming at - now." Tsuchio

Nichrome hardens her position. She would have fallen down because she aimed exactly. The muzzle is outside the window, afterwards she only has to shoot the target. Even though her soul is sucked up, she still can move her fingers. As long as she already aimed, she should be able to break the circle.

“Master is really unreasonable. My machine’s specifications can not only..." Nichrome
“...Is it impossible?" Tsuchio
“...Who said it was unreasonable, I am the strongest machine! I'll shoot in three seconds, both be ready.” Nichrome
“Hey, Tsuchino!” Tsuchio

『If only we can do it, we can finish it soon!』Tsuchino

One second, the electrons ran through Nichrome´s eyes and the muzzle shifted slightly. Two seconds, Tsuchino put her hand on my back and we transform. It's just a few seconds of transformation, and it doesn't take long than the previous experience. 3 seconds, Nichrome pulled the trigger and a roar echoes through the room. Yukurishisu and Almira-san also look here, and the numbness which deprives of the freedom of my extremity fades a little. Okay, let’s move! Immediately putting my left hand on the glowing magic circle, I poured an enormous amount of magic that I was able to use after the transformation into the magic circle at once. It was growing just before the completion of the magic and the magic quickly exceeded the allowable range and I felt the magical circle at hand.

“Nuo!?”

My body is blown away by the shock when the big magic is liberated and I slam into the wall. My belly and right arm were hot and painful, but my eyes were looking at the floor. The function of the magic is stopped by missing the part which was the base. The brilliance of the magic disappeared and the spill of the soul and the numbness stopped. It is too late worry about whether the souls are safe. What happened to that after it was severed?

I shifted my eyes to the center of the room. Even though the magic has already been interrupted and severed, it is still floating. No, it's not floating. A body grows from under the head and a figure looks on the ground. That figure has big wings on the back and a thick long tail extending from the waist.

The former emperor, Grannir, has revived.

Monster Musume chapter 103: Empress vs Emperor

The light of the magic circle which has finished its purpose vanished and sunlight shines through the window and illuminates the room. There should have been lighting, but it seems that it was destroyed by the aftermath of the battle. The battle is stopped because everyone has settled.

“...”

Slowly, Grannir, standing at the center of the room, got up. Because he was just revived, he didn't wear any clothes or armor and his muscles and scales were exposed. I can't see his face from my position, so I don't know his expression.

It seems that he got up and confirmed the condition of his body, holding his fist and opening his wings. Even in such an unprotected state, we can't move. I move poorly and I don't want to stimulate him....

“...Almira.” Grannir

“Haa! Here!” Almira

Almira-san who was called kneels in front of Grannir.

“Why am I here?" Grannir
“Those who wish for your resurrection have recalled your soul to this world with the summoning magic that I have studied." Almira
“Is that so. It is said that the soul of the deceased will return to the earth, but it is not true." Grannir
“A strong regret for this world might have refused it. Everything is in your power." Almira
“Whatever, all thanks to you, Almira. When I become emperor again, I will give you your favorite reward." Grannir
“No, I'm good enough for the fact that you've returned to this world again." Almira
“As usual, so selfless. My sword." Grannir
“Here.” Almira

Grannir´s body was wrapped in light and he put on clothes. Clothes that combine luxury and functionality are worn together with a robe with a large emblem on it. A h.o.r.n.y maiden is surrounded by dragons and giants. This emblem was also seen in the castle. Perhaps it is the royal family's crest. Exactly, it represents the current royal family. The black sheath of that sword also has it.

“...It's been a long time, Yukurishisu, Tyres, and Toururi.” Grannir
“...Older brother, why did you come back. Why didn't you return to the underworld?” Yukurishisu
“Stupid question. We will have another continent in the hands of our empire. We are the best race in the world. An outstanding person has the obligation and responsibility to manage inferior people. If you do, you will know." Grannir
“Sure, we are strong as individuals and I think we are better. However, it won't be able to decide superiority or inferiority by itself. In fact, human tactics are excellent." Yukurishisu
“In front of overwhelming power, tactics are powerless. Depends on the inherent strengths and qualities." Grannir

“However, the actual war was prolonged!” Yukurishisu
“Well, that's my fault. From the beginning, if I used strong people like me, I would have destroyed humanity now." Grannir
“Then what? Now you're going to fight on the front lines, brother?” Yukurishisu

“Yes, I'm going to put the country together. You guys will help me, too." Grannir

...Well, when we fought, there seemed to have been few high demons. It was almost as if I could drive them back with the heroes and the knights and there might not have been a demon. Well, if they come to the forefront like Yukurishisu, everything will be too strict. I guess they were underestimating humans.

“What if I say no?" Yukurishisu
“Shall I ask why?" Grannir
“My older brother chose the way to destroy humans. But, I chose the way to live with humans. I'm never going to war again." Yukurishisu
“With humans? Do you really think you can do that?" Grannir
“I believe so. We and humans have the same roots and we can communicate with each other." Yukurishisu
“...What about the two of you? Which way do you choose, Yukurishisu or me." Grannir
“I'm on sister´s side. You're a tyrant who is forcing the people to fight. It's unforgivable." Tyres
“...I also walk along older sister's path. I can't believe in humans yet, though ...I think we can understand each other." Toururi
“...Is that the human, who seduced my younger siblings?” Grannir

Grannir is glaring at me with angry eyes. With just being stared at the air, the heart is shot through the line of sight and air that does not become a word leaks out.

“Tsuchio doesn't matter! This is something I decided myself and I can't give it to anyone!” Yukurishisu
“We aren’t deceived so easily.”
“Is that so? That means you guys stand against my way." Grannir

Magical power rises from Grannir´s body like a sunrise. He pulled the sword that he received from Almira-san and raised it over his head.

“Let's get rid of all obstacles. Those who hinder my plans, even my younger siblings, won't be forgiven." Grannir

“You should not be involved with this world anymore, dead man. Again, I will take your life with my hands." Yukurishisu

“Do you really think you can do that?" Grannir
“This time, I´m not alone. It seems you have come back stronger, but we´re not going to lose." Yukurishisu

Grannir´s sword wrapped in magic becomes a tornado. Magic power wrapped around the sword rises even more...what will be done next.

“It's awkward to fight here...it's too narrow.” Grannir
“Just a moment!" Yukurishisu
“Everybody fly!" Tsuchio

The sword wrapped in magic is swung down. The s.p.a.ce was bisected by a gigantic light blade and Yukurishisu and her siblings disappeared from my sight. Blown away by the rough magical power, we pierce the wall and are thrown into the air. I felt a pleasant floating feeling for a while and something landed on my belly. It made my body bends like the く shape, the inner part of my stomach was pressured, ouch- I scream.

“OEee..." Tsuchio
“Hey, don't puke on my back! I don't have that kind of hobby!”
“That way, it's strange because it seems to be on the contrary..."

I didn't land, but I was caught by Rin. In the distance, Ruu carries Lime and Nichrome. It looks heavy.... Sitting on the back of Rin, I look at the research tower. I can't hear anything from the hole that we broke through. I am afraid to get too close, so I leave the tower a bit. Then....

“Hey, what the h.e.l.l..."
“It is a lie...a slash is reaching to the ground..."

The blade of light divided the room on the top floor into two. That part.i.tioned not only the room but also the whole research tower vertically, leaving a trace to the square just under. In the surroundings, the blood of the people who might have been involved is scattered; looking from the top, it seems as if they have dropped red paint.

If you are exaggerating to such a terrible scourge, half of the tower shakes. As I moved my eyes in a hurry, the tower that was broken lost the balance and was about to start to fall. The research tower is falling slowly. The people in the plaza escaped like scattering spiders. I already solved the brainwashing...isn't it necessary anymore?

The research tower collapses to the ground. A wonderful shop becomes rubble and the blood of the underlying people scatters and dust rises. Anyhow, it was a king. ...It would have been known that such a thing would hurt.

In the meantime, Grannir flew down while blowing out smoke. Almira-san who spread her wings is next to him. People who saw the previous emperor and his aide doubted their eyes and forgot to escape. Black clouds fell at a high speed from the sky and at the same time as it landed a little away. Yukurishisu, Tyres and Toururi come out from inside.

“Older brother, what are you doing! For whatever reason, did you come up with such a violent method!?" Yukurishisu
“I have made a mistake in the power degree a little...it's difficult fairly." Grannir
“...Older brother, after all you are not fit for being emperor. I will kill you here." Yukurishisu

Yukurishisu and her half siblings took their stances. Different from Yukurishisu, Tyres and Toururi aren't immortal. I don't think they will lose....

“It won't be that sweet. The sword equipped by Grannir carries strong magical power. Including that it was a sword duel, it can kill immortals." Yukurishisu

Immortality...contradictory? No, it doesn't matter. If you have such a sword, Yukurishisu is also in danger. She said she suffered a big injury from that duel, maybe she was cut by that sword.

“You can come from anywhere. I'm not going to lose now." Grannir
“Let's go, both of you!"

“Stop here!"

“I won't leave my neck behind this time!" Grannir

The giant duo plunges into Grannir and Yukurishisu starts to chant her magic. Breathing in and out from right and left, an axe from right and a sword and hammer from left. Grannir shot a white shining ball from his left hand at Tyres who defended with his sword and hammer as shield and was blown away. Next, he swung his sword and repelled Toururi´s axe before kicking her into her stomach and blowing her away as well.

“Take this!”

A magic circle is deployed on the sky and huge black iron spears appear. The spears covered by the magic circle struck at an unstoppable speed. The spears which flare through the circle fall like meteorites. Such an magic aims at Grannir.

“Great, Yukurishisu. To activate this kind of magic in such a short time." Grannir

Grannir releases a light ray from his palm. It is a huge light ray that doesn't compare with the one which hit Tyres. It swallowed and erased the huge spears, but still it pushed the heaven without stopping. If there were clouds, perhaps there would be a perfect hole now....

“Haa!”

Before I knew, Yukurishisu who was approaching Grannir, who is still looking up at the sky, raises her fist and makes an uppercut. Put some into the belly and pound the magical ball created in the palm. The magic that was put in was released, and the condensed atmosphere exploded. While cutting the skin, Grannir was blown away. Yukurishisu is trying to pursue. When chanting a few words, the rocks of the ground floated up and dropped around where Grannir flew at. Like an earthquake, the ground shakes and the stacked rocks become a mountain. Tyres and Toururi also join the pursuit. Wielding each of their weapons, they aim at Grannir who is buried in the mountain. An axe attack and a sword and hammer attack.

Finish hitting an retreat, all three gaze at the rocky mountain without hesitation. At the next moment, Grannir appeared from inside, blowing away the rock mountain. There are lacerations made by Yukurisishu 's wind and bruises made by the weapons, but it is far from full-bodied creation. He was attacked by three people and is still fine...he is a monster, indeed.

“...Is that enough?" Grannir
“What is enough?" Tyres
“I'm trying to figure out what you´re doing and it's enough. We'll start from here.” Grannir

Expanding his wings, Grannir closed the distance at once with Tyres. Tyres manages to avoid the sword, which swayed at such a speed that the sword blinks and you can't take your eyes off. However, regardless of the amount of weapons, Tyres-san is being pressed.

“What's wrong, no matter how much weapons you have, it makes no sense if you can't master them." Toururi
“You don't need to tell me...!” Tyres

From behind, Toururi attacks. She swung her axe from a high point down with the momentum of the fissure. But that is also predicted. A back fist wrapped in pure white light collides with her axe that was swung by the overwhelming power of a giant. Without stopping the movement as it was, Grannir kicked with his feet and blew Toururi away.

“Sink.”

Next, he turned both palms at those two. The white ball that appeared swelled up and a ray of the same magnitude as when the big ball was erased was released. Tyres covers himself with many arms and Toururi shields herself with her axe. And after the rays disappeared, both stood on the spot with smoke coming out of their bodies. Then, they fell down to the ground.

...They seem to be unconscious. Receiving such a ray, they should be fine. However leaving them alone is tasteless, therefore I must do some first aid measures. That's all what I can do for now.
