Seiju no Kuni no Kinju Tsukai Chapter 49

Chapter 49 (Teleportation Device)

Kyurie-san rushes up toward me and then get down on her knee. 

After looking at Kyurie-san, I breath out a sigh of relief. 

"... I'm glad." 

"I'm relieved that Kyurie-san is alright..." 

She shows an expression as if she don't know what to say for an instant. 

"At the time when we're being divided by the wall remember ? at that time, I heard a strong explosion sound from the opposite side of the wall... by any chance, is Kyurie-san being attacked by a strong monster, or so that was what I thought." 

Ah, Kyurie-san shows being consent from my answer. 

"That is, at that time I was trying to crush the wall using magic, but... well, though it was unlike myself, I feel a little bit upset at that time. and yet after that, after I find a way to arrived at your place, I can't find you there." 

Huh ? 

"There's no hole on the floor ?" 

"... you didn't see any ?" 

So after I fall down, the hole is being closed up, is that how it is ? 

"Well yes, somehow ... thanks to Cecil-san, my wounds had been healed." 

"Nn ? Strong ?" 

"You guys too, thank you." 

Kyurie-san also express her grat.i.tude toward Zix-san and Hirgiz-san. 

"Yes..." 

After that, looking at my direction Kyurie-san floats a smile filled with irony. 

"However, for someone to be worried about me... this is such a rare experience." 

Currently, Kyurie-san is like a teacher to me. 

For me being worried about her, was it presumptuous of me ?... 

"I-I'm sorry." 

*Jii* looking at the scene in front of her, Cecil-san cleared her throat while creating *Ahem* sound. 

"T-The truth is..." 

I told everyone what had happened to me. 

And then defeating a monster in search of an exit, and one way or other, I've arrived in this place. 

"About that, let me explain it." 

Cecil-san raised her hand a little. 

Based on Cecil-san explanation, it seems like at the time I and Kyurie-san arrived at the fourth layer, Cecil-san, and the others also arrived in the fourth layer. 

Then after the earthquake, they decide to aim at searching the teleport device. 

After listening to the story which I'd disappeared, Cecil-san suggests that they help to search. 

Then immediately after that, they began searching. 

Kyurie-san and Zix-san searching within the fourth layer. 

And then, finding out from the people in the open s.p.a.ce if they've seen someone like me. 

The two of them will search for me up to the seventh layer, after that they will meet up with Kyurie-san and Zix-san, then decide on the limit where to look. 

After Cecil-san proposing such plan for searching me, they immediately begin searching. 

And then, Zix-san who at the time are inside the second layer, his ring emit some light toward Cecil-san (they make this as a signal when they've found me), being guided by the ring, he and Kyurie-san moving in a hurry toward this place. 

With this... I feel like being thankful is not enough. 

"Kyurie-saー" 

*Gyuu* Her power hugging me grew stronger. 

"... I'm sorry... if only I were being more careful... if only I were more faster at noticing the irregularity. much less saving you." 

"That's why you don't have to worry about it. you did not do something wrong." 

"It's alright, you don't have to mind it." 

And I'm very thankful for it. 

"..................." 

But, however... my face is... 

... in other words, well... 

I'm trying to send a message toward Cecil-san who looking toward here that this is goodー, no I mean, somehow, this is bad... 

"Kyurie... can I have a moment ?" 

"........................." 

"It looks to me that Kurohiko is suffering because you hug him too strong." 

"No... it's alright... wait... eh!?" 

Wait, I'm being hugged again !? 

I feel it is purely a questioning voice. 

The strong embrace before indicating that she's really happy... however, this kind of gentle hug is, somehow will create some question... 

"K-Kyurie-san ! Anyway, let's search for a way back to the surface ! though with this member there won't be any problem with monsters, however, if there's another earthquake it would be bad after all!" 

After we decide to go back via teleport device, Kyurie-san and Cecil-san began discussing which one among them who going to lend me a shoulder, since I've lost all my strength to walk. 

By the way in the meantime. 

I then heard the conversation of the two people. 

While Hirgiz-san starring with patience. 

"Cecil-sama... she seems different lately isn't she...?" 

"Sagara Kurohiko and Kyurie Velstein eh ?" 

"Well now, yes I'm... is it surprising ?" 

"If it's someone bearing its fangs at Cecil-san then it will be different but... well, they seem to have mutual trust after all. thus I will just watch attentively." 

"You seems to want to say something, Hirgiz." 

The back were Cecil-san and Hirgiz-san. 

And then I'm being carried on Zix-san back. 

Zix-san being unable to remain indifferent to the two people that can't decide who going to help me said, 

"I know, I will carry Kurohiko on my back. like that, there won't be a problem isn't it ?. ... Cecil-sama also fine with it right ?" 

Although they want to raise their objection, they obediently agree to the suggestion with much difficulty. 

By the way from the two of them, they said 『Just now, that was not a quarrel okay ?』 simultaneously. 

Zix-san talked with a small voice. 

"... Regarding earlier is it ?" 

"Hirgiz-san really like Cecil-san isn't it ?" 

"However, Hirgiz-san also agrees when all of you decide to look for me, isn't it ? and also, for Zix-san looking out for me... thank you very much." 

"Yes... me too, please take care of me." 

"... But." 

"Is that really true ?" 

Even though Zix-san was talking about being a loner but... 

"A friend huh ?... Alright then, as a friend, please take care of me... Kurohiko." 

"About that, Zix is enough."

"Eh ?" 

"Eh... w-well, alright... Z-Zix ?" 

"......................" 

Come to think of it... this might be the first time for me to have a male friend. 

"Between Cecil-san and Kyurie-san... right now, which one you like more ?" 

"Hahaha, it's just a joke, about 10% of it..." 

... Aren't that almost 100% serious ! 

The ceiling is high, and there's a straight pa.s.sage leading to the room, the room itself is plain. 

And then, inside this room, there's a teleport device. 

The form of the teleport device is like a pillar being half buried on the wall. 

In other words, that pattern is a teleporting magic, I guess ?. 

If by any chance we can use that as magic spell, it would be convenient, isn't it ?. 

"Are all the preparations ready ?" 

Cecil-san then put her hand on the teleport device. 

"Yes..." 

While Kyurie-san who stand near the pa.s.sage unsheathe her sword and answered. 

The transfer device will activate when one pours their magic power into it. 

Furthermore, there would be a lot of monsters come after one's start activating the teleport device... or so I'd heard. 

As Cecil-san pour her magic power to the teleport device. 

The magic art equation just like a shadow, it's appeared on the floor near the pillar up to the entrance. 

For it to stop until there is so that we can check the approaching monster which comes here huh ? 

Actually, Kyurie-san also stands on the magic art equation properly. 

However, as expected, doing it by herself is a bitー. 

"....................." 

Even if I'm being carried on the back, I still can use the forbidden spell. 

"Kyurie-san, I will also use the forbidden spellー" 

"Yes..." 

Looking at the width of the pa.s.sage, if we line up two peopleー 

The one that appeared from the pa.s.sage is a crowd of a tiger head. 

After realizing that Cecil-san is going to come and helpー however, she immediately stops. 

Because of thirst of blood that comes from Kyurie-san, we're unable to move. 

And from here we didn't see any agitation from her. 

"It's impossible for you all of you..." 

She said that flatly and readying her sword. 

Howeverー As if remembering what they have should do, they began taking a battle stance. 

"Today, it is impossible..." 

*Fuu* Kyurie-san exhale her breath. 

"Today, not even oneー I won't even let even one pa.s.s here." 

The dark tiger heads start preparing by readying their power into their legs. 

Of course, when we being teleported to the surface, all can see that not even one dark tiger head can be seen.
