Yuusha Isagi no Maou Hanashi 034

3-10 Soul Revolution

The damage to the Demon Lord’s castle was enormous.

The commander of the magician's corps, Shirbenia took some serious injuries. She got stabbed in the chest, which resulted in the soldiers, almost being annihilated.

He opened his eyes slightly and looked at Isagi.

[ ..... b.a.s.t.a.r.d, so you were strong ] - Renzou

[ Aah ] - Isagi

Supporting his back, Isagi helped him up

but this, was his true character it felt like a sword that had been drawn from its sheath, right now it felt like that sword was sheathed again.

That included killing people. It seems that Renzou had gained a lot of determination.

Renzou clenched his fist.

Because of that punch which held more power than he thought, Isagi fell down on to the floor.

Then, Renzou, bit his lips, looking more in pain than Isagi who had just been punched.

[ O, oi, you .... Are you alright? ] - Isagi

No doubt that really hurt.

[ Do that after you are healed , you ...  ] - Isagi

Isagi scratched the back of his head.

It's not like he was trying to lie.

This one punch , he would receive it with open arms.

Though when Renzou did it again, Isagi would return the punch, or so he thought.

[ ......... I'm sorry, Renzou ] - Isagi.

Lie me down, isa ] - renzou

Renzou, from him punching Isagi, it seemed that all of his worries were blown away.

[ What are you gonna do after this?

[ ....... ]

[ ..... For now ,

That was just like his original plan.

[ So those were the adventurers ] - Renzou

Warriors who kept on standing up no matter how many time they're defeated.

[ ..... Aah ] - Isagi

Renzou had the usual sour look.

Perhaps various thoughts were recurring in his mind.

[ What do you think , Isa ?

[ ..... It's not about winning, or losing.

[ So, you will murder all of those adventurers, huh? ] - Renzou

[ Naive eh] - Renzou

Isagi for a moment was shocked.

They will never stop unless every one of the demon race gets annihilated.

[ ......  I am. thinking, that no matter how many extremist adventurers we defeat,

[ Those are only your thoughts. ] - Renzou

Renzou closed his eyes.

[ Isa, I already decided. ]

[ I will never forgive anyone who stands in my way.

Surely , he was changed from this day.

Isagi left the room, Dyutyu and Rimino were already waiting outside.

[ You two, is there something wrong ?]  - Isa

Rimino waved her hand while smiling.

The beautiful voice of the elf princess still wouldn't return.

Preparing for moving the patients in care, there's a lot of things that had to be done.

Dyutyu didn't look at all different from usual.

In this one week , it seemed that Dyutyu was really busy writing letters as the head of the Demon Lord’s castle.

[ Ah, aah ?  ] - Isa

[ Umm, you don't need to ]  -Isa

[ From Rimino ? ] - Isa

Rimino gave Isagi an OK-mark with her thumb.

What in the world did Rimino tell Dyutyu.

Dyutyu, looked at her smiling and nodding her head energetically.

[ Look, Rimino-chan also told it to me just like this ] - Dyu

Is she perhaps able to use some kind of mind reading tech? Isagi thought that for a moment.

[ Even though Isa-sama didn't use any sealing techs, Isa-sama was really strong.

[ Umm .....  ] - Isa

Surely that wasn't sarcasm.

Perhaps, she would think that Isagi was someone like shuu. Someone who would betray them

It'll be different for the five Demon Generals who stood at her back.

It was already too late.

Isagi didn't want to give her more anxiety.

This kind of thing, was no more than just Isagi's principle.

[ Umm, you know, Dyutyu.

Looking at Isagi, Dyutyu laughed quite indifferently.

[ It's alright, Isa-sama.

Even ira-chan , must believe in that] - Dyu

With a face that looked like she was holding the hope from the bottom of her heart, she laughed.

Even if she already lost Ira.

Isa-sama, please lend us your power ] - Dyu

Possibly in this one week, this was the answer that she desperately thought of with her slow head.

Her hair also had become frayed. It also looked somewhat haggard.

But even so , Dyutyu still believed it.

Even if she was treated like a fool.

Perhaps, she was someone who held the most important thing.

Though she already experienced something scary

the two who were born in different places but had the same status.

He felt the urge so much, wanting to meet with Plea.

It made him think about what he did all this time.

『Get ahold of yourself , Isagi.

You can't gain anything by hesitating, you know.

Even though I wouldn't ever become a demon kind.

That's right.

For that sake.

He felt something on his left and right hand.

Isagi decided, that he would succ.u.mb himself into this happiness this time.

　◆◆

And then, there was also one boy who made his determination.

As if killing time, he kept writing and messing with magical codes.

After the battle ended, he was crying and prostrating himself in front of Isagi.　

He wasn’t able to protect Rimino.

He wasn’t able to return the kindness that those girls gave to him, he said.

It was your first battle, it can't be helped, Isagi said.

Isagi was kind.

He felt relieved.

Yoshin.o.bu was greatly tormented by his self-loathing.

Yoshin.o.bu thought.

There was not even any worth to blame him, or even hit him.

For isagi, he was the subject of his protection.

That thing was really sad, that it wanted to make him cry.

Only he himself cannot do anything.

That's why he was candidating himself to become the defensive force of the Demon Lord's castle

If he didn't do that, they wouldn't even become his friend.

so that he can stand on the same line as Isagi.

and then,

for sure,

he could protect the girl that is important to him.

While looking at the ground while sitting atop the spire, the boy muttered.

[ .......... Trip to another world, it isn't something easy eh ..... ]

　◆◆　

As Zed was guessing that the adventurers who infiltrated the castle got annihilated,

their black magic still wasn’t able to break through the barrier.

If there was  another tech user who was protecting the Demon Lord’s castle beside her, then more attacks than this was meaningless.

< valkyria=""> and < sparda="" -="" skuld=""> got annihilated.

It was already the time to rise it to an S cla.s.s quest.

And then , Zed who turned his back on the battle , felt another presence and then turned again looking back.

He had pupils that seemed to burn.

At a glance , Zed knew that this boy was dangerous.

With a fluid movement he prepared his bow.

 I don’t have any intention to oppose you guys 』- Shuu

He presented his hand that pointed downward.

This is the way of the kingdom --- Paraberiu country capital, way to show that one didn't have any hostility right.

『.....Who are you ?』- Zed

Demon Lord candidate, that's what they called me 』- Shuu

Zed slowly lowered his bow.

I would appreciate it if you want to lend me your power 』- Shuu

『What are you saying I wonder? 』-Shuu

He shrugged his shoulder.

From what Zed could grasp, he couldn't see the end of that boy's ability.

Towards Zed who started to sweat, that boy smiled.

『Of course, I won't say that I am asking it for free.

It would become quite the sum of money right ? How about I make this as the exchange of the travel expense』

Just as he said, he grasped the head of the Myornen from the five demon generals.

This was not a negotiation. It was a threat.

That boy was not just a normal boy.

Even while  experiencing hardships or even battered with despair.

Why don't you follow my lead.

That boy declared, just like some great hero.

Those eyes were appropriate for a Demon Lord rather than the hero.
