BXBX NOVEL Chapter 194
Translator: Tseirp
“I’ll take you on seriously . ”
I said to the Demon Lord even though I was looking for a way to retreat . In other words, I confirmed with my side view my escape route, to use the ship of the fainted pirates who hired Haru .
Judging by the way the Demon Lord fought until now, her fighting style was more towards magic specialization and her speed was not that quick .
Meaning she might not be able to catch up … if I focus everything on escaping . It will be my victory if I escape to the ship, meet up with Malina and we escape into My World .
The fighting style of Jobless, in other words, there is no shame nor lack of honor in escaping . Escaping is victory .
But the Demon Lord stood in the way of that escape path .
I’ll first have to make her move .
“You’re lying abouch fightching, you plan to eschape . ”
“I’ve been found out!”
“Pathethic!”
“Don’t call me pathetic! I have almost no magical power left and am in a weakened state after all! Hey, can’t you let me go? I have no intention of fighting against you . ”
“The answer is no ―”
So there’s no way other than to fight?
“Then lets at least take off this armor . I’m afraid of getting put on the wanted list but that can’t be helped . ”
“Rejected!”
The Demon Lord rejected my suggestion and attacked with flying darkness blades .
I continued to just barely dodge the attacks but just getting scratched by them would form a hole in the gold armor and leave some scratches on my body .
What offensive power .
I have no choice but to run away after all . I should be able to slip away from the Demon Lord when she’s on her own ― or so I thought when I was struck with even more despair .
The Demon Lord extended her hand .
Upon doing so, a rift suddenly appeared beside her .
That is ― is that magic similar to my own My World?”
‘No way’, I thought to myself but a huge hand emerged from that rift ― correction, it was a huge front paw .
Just a single one of that front foot covered in white fur was larger than me .
And the thing that ultimately emerged was an enormous white wolf .
She summoned a seriously insane monster .
Maybe it is the Demon Lord’s kin?
Isn’t it ten times larger than an ordinary wolf?
And then, there was a single shadow on its back . When I saw the single young girl riding on that monstrous wolf,
I inadvertently sucked in a breath .
The person riding on Fenrir’s back was Sheena who I previously met on the uninhabited island .
But if I remember correctly, Sheena was with the Demon Lord Famiris‧Raritei .
“Don’t tell me, you are the Demon Lord Famiris‧Raritei?”
” … I am the reincarnation of that Demon Lord . ”
She hesitated for a moment but the Demon Lord affirmed it .
“Then do you recall a white wolf race girl named Haurvatat?”
“Yeah, I do . ”
“Then all the more we don’t have to fight! Haurvatat is my companion . ”
” … Don’t jest . That child is an earnest child . She will not become the companion of a pirate . ”
She claimed . It’s true that Haru is stubbornly earnest . I would probably not believe it either if I was told that Haru was the companion of a pirate .
However ― it was true that the battle was meaningless .
Sheena No . 3 leaped off from the enormous wolf .
“Sheena, you fight too . It’s an order . ”
The Demon Lord’s voice suddenly changed . It didn’t change the fact that it still sounded like the voice of a young girl but it had become the voice of a girl about primary school age .
It sounded familiar for some reason though .
“Yes, Grandmaster . ”
“Wait, Sheena! I don’t want to fight with you guys! Please persuade the Demon Lord for me . ”
“I am sorry, Master Ichinojo . I also do not wish for it but this is an order from the Grandmaster . Ahh, I don’t want to do this . ”
She said as her hands transformed like how Pionia does it . Into the shape of swords .
Shit, can I really not avoid this fight?
That’s right, maybe I can open the door to My World and call Haru out ― as long as she waits for me to take off this armor ―
“Wait!”
That’s right, as long as she waits — eh?
I wasn’t the one who stopped Sheena, it was the Demon Lord .
For some reason, the Demon Lord was squatting down and holding her head .
“Sheena, what did you just say?”
“Ahh, I don’t want to do this . ”
“Before that . ”
“This is an order from the Grandmaster .
“Even before that . ”
“I am sorry . ”
“After that!”
“Master Ichinojo . ”
“That!”
Said the Demon Lord .
“Ichinojo?”
The Demon Lord asked me .
“Yes?”
“Kusunoki Ichinojo?”
“Ah, no, in this world I am just known as Ichinojo … eh?”
Why does the Demon Lord know my name?
Did she hear about it from Sheena? Eh? Did I even mention my name to Sheena in the first place?
” … Take off your armor . ”
” … Ah, okay . ”
I’m grateful to be able to take it off but what is she planning to do?
I took off my armor and I noticed just as I was taking off my helmet .
The Demon Lord was no longer in my sights .
Correction, the Demon Lord was leaping towards me .
— Shit!
I’m going to be hit if she’s this close already .
I thought to myself when the power of Darkness exploded from the Demon Lord’s body and blew off her copper armor .
Self-destruct!?
No, the strength was too weak so it’s probably a blinding attack .
“Onii!”
The person who appeared from within the Darkness was —
“It’s Onii, the real Onii! Onii Onii Onii, what are you doing dying off on your own you idiot! I was really really really really really worried!”
“Miri! Are you really Miri!?”
“Yes, did Onii forget your own younger sister’s face!? Even though I have never forgotten about Onii even once . What’s with you? Are you an idiot? Do you want to die?”
— Ah, this brooding darkness, it certainly is Miri .
In the past when I came back from my Middle School excursion trip, it wasn’t this bad but she did react similarly . Even though it was just a three days two nights trip .
“Wait, ehhhhhh! Why are you here!? Eh? Did you die too?”
“I didn’t die! I only jumped into the flames at the crater in Mount Fuji . ”
“That most likely meant your death! Why did you do something so stupid?”
“Ah — Onii doesn’t know about it . Onii is not dead . More importantly, Onii, are you hurt!? Ah, you’re hurt here, what happened?”
“You’re the one who did it just now . ”
“Ah, there’s no helping that then . ”
“At least apologize!”
“I had no choice! I heard that Onii would be heading to Port Kobe from the southern island so I thought you would be in danger if you encountered pirates so I wanted to crush all the pirates! It was done for Onii’s sake so I’m not guilty . ”
“You’re guilty! Leaving that aside, what’s with this turn of events? I thought I was going to die just now but now I’m feeling quite fortunate —”
“Me too, Onii ― I really missed you . ”
A smiled leaked from my face as I looked at Miri hugging my chest with her eyes closed .
Even though I wanted her to live happily in Japan, I really wanted her to but I was really happy to be able to reunite with Miri this way .
Of course, I’ll have to ask her a lot of questions .
“Grandmaster, until when should I continue waiting?”
Sheena and that huge wolf stared at the two of us .
