Chapter 44 . 1 : Hundreds Arms Giant
◆Former Princess of Algore, Regena
Aah, what should I do…… .
There’s nothing I can do about the scene before me .
Omiros is wounded right in front of me .
But then, I don’t even know what to do .
Omiros might be killed at this rate .
Even if I call for reinforcements, the people below might have their hands full dealing with those goblins .
「Dear master……… . . 」
It seems that my dear master fought against the little sister of the hero and was unable to come to save me for the time being .
I wanted to cry right now .
Clasping the short sword in my hands I recalled the day when I received it from my dear master .
This sword was gifted to me by my dear master so that I could protect myself when the time for me to leave Nargol and return to the human world came .
My dear master’s kindness filled this sword .
Originally, Nargol wasn’t a place fit for humans to live . Except for my dear master, it seems, humans who lived there were regarded as a nuisance, or food .
The reason we were safe up till now was because they feared my dear master .
My dear master had told me before that we couldn’t live in Nargol forever .
That was why someday, we had to go back to the human world .
And this sword was something that I needed in order to protect myself when I finally returned back to the human world .
But then, can I even do that?
I just want to stay by my dear master side . I always dream about it: the scene of the carnage of my people on that day . The scene of us running for our lives from those goblins . Whichever it is, the human world or the demon world, I’m scared of both of them .
I can feel at ease only when I’m by my dear master’s side . I really can’t leave my dear master’s side .
I mean even now, I’m trembling in fear .
Advertis.e.m.e.ntThere’s two people fight in front of my eyes .
But I know that Omiros’s movements dulled as the fight went on .
Omiros attacked with his sword and Goz repelled the attack with his shield .
The impact from that exchange made Omiros drop his sword . Omiros’s balance crumbled as he tried to pick his sword .
And Goz wouldn’t miss such a golden opportunity .
「GUHA! ! 」
Finally, Omiros was tripped by Goz .
Goz stamped down on Omiros’s left arm, the arm which he used to hold his shield .
「GU! ! 」
Omiros frowned in pain .
「THIS IS THE END, YOUNG PRINCEEEE――! ! 」
Holding his sword in a backhand grip, Goz then launched a deadly stab towards Omiros .
The moment I saw that .
「NOOOOOOOOO――――! ! 」
I unintentionally screamed .
Both of them had their gaze drawn towards me .
Before I noticed, I had drawn my sword .
I wanted to save Omiros . I wouldn’t let him die . That feeling was driving my body to move .
Omiros searched every goblins nests just to find me, and yet I wanted to return to Nargol . I didn’t want to part with Omiros in such a cruel way .
Goz looked at me . My body trembled as I looked upon him .
「G-Get away from Omiros……… Y-Your opponent is m-m-m-me! ! 」
My hand was visibly trembling, my sword unsteady .
C’mon, Regena, get a grip already! I should be able to fight just like when I faced against those ogres .
「Oioi, such a small sword won’t be able to kill me . Rather, throw that dangerous thing away since you might hurt yourself instead . Instead I’ll become your opponent as much as you like, on top of my bed of course . 」
Goz was looking down on me .
「Stop it, Regena……… . . 」
Omiros was trying to stop me with his frail and weak voice .
「Weaklings should just shut up!」
Goz belled while trampling on Omiros’s chest .
「GUHAA! ! 」
Oh no, I won’t let Omiros be hurt again .
「Stop it already…… . . I understand, I will do as you say…… . 」
I finally yielded to Goz .
「I see . Anything I say huh . 」
Goz sounded so delighted .
「Then, throw that sword away below the rampart first! ! Or else, I’m gonna kill this guy! ! 」
Goz said so as he looked at my sword .
Throwing away the sword that was given to me by my dear master . As if I can do that .
「Please……… This is the only thing I can’t do………」
I pleaded to Goz .
「Then I’m gonna kill him . 」
Goz pointed his sword at Omiros again .
「WAIT! ! I…… . . Understand…… . 」
I threw my sword beyond the rampart .
「Hehehe, good girl . Regena . 」
Saying so, Goz then kicking Omiros away .
Omiros tried to stand up again, but he was kicked away by Goz .
And then, he showed an anguished expression as his body crashed against the wall .
「You just need to watch from there! ! 」
「OMIROS! ! 」
I tried to rush towards Omiros
「Oops! ! 」
But my hand was caught and I was knocked down by Goz .
Goz straddled on top of me .
「I finally caught you…… . . Regena . I’m now gonna rape you in front of Omiros! ! 」
As Goz was about to undress .
「NOOOOOOOOO――――！ ! SAVE ME MASTEEE―――EER! ! ! 」
I shut my eyes and then called for my dear master with the loudest voice I could muster .
”Shu”
I heard the sound of something cutting the air .
「GYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! ! 」
Suddenly, Goz got away from me as he raised a painful shriek .
「……… . . EH? W…… . . What happen… . . ?」
I straightened up and looked at Goz . That’s when I saw the short sword that I had thrown down to the bottom of the rampart sticking out from Goz’s naked a.s.s .
Goz was hopping right and left while shouting in pain . Since he was about to undress his pants before, now his lower half was completely exposed . Jumping left and right in that state looked extremely ridiculous but this wasn’t the time to laugh .
I hurried to Omiros’s side .
「Are you alright! ? Omiros! ! 」
I supported Omiros .
「Uhm……… . Regena……… . What……… Happen? 」
Omiros stood up with great difficulty .
But just like him, I also didn’t understand what was happening . My dear master’s sword which should be at the bottom of the rampart was stabbed in Goz’s a.s.s .
「WHAT THE h.e.l.l IS THIS SWORD! ? 」
Goz pulled out the sword sticking out of his a.s.s . And out of nowhere, Goz used that sword to stab his own chest .
「GUNUNUNU! ! ! 」
He tried using his free hand to stop the blade from stabbing him .
It seems that sword was moving on its own to stab Goz .
When Goz managed to stop that sword from stabbing his chest at last .
「……… What the h.e.l.l is that guy doing on his own? 」
Omiros looked at Goz with a puzzled expression .
Goz’s figure, desperately trying to stop his own hand from stabbing himself in a half-naked state was an extremely hilarious scene to behold from the side . Even Omiros couldn’t help but look at himself with a puzzled face .
As we were looking at Goz in such hilarious appearance, we heard the sound of someone coming up the stairs . Someone finally ascended to this place . Omiros prepared himself for another battle since it was most likely the goblins .
「Sorry, I’m late . 」
The one who ascended was a completely unexpected person .
「You are……… That Werewolf . What are you doing here? ! 」
Omiros asked as he looked at the one climbing the stairs . I knew this person too . He was the werewolf who came along with us to Algore .
What is this person doing here? He should be locked up right now .
On a closer look, there was someone hanging on his back .
「Ri………… Rietto? 」
Omiros called out . For some reason, Rietto clung to the werewolf’s back .
「Geez! ! You should run a little bit slower you see! ! 」
As she complained to the werewolf, Rietto descended from his back .
「Can’t be helped ya know~ ! That scary master is gonna kill me for sure if I let something terrible happened to that female human! ! 」
「Is that so? That uncle minstrel was kind to Rietto though? 」
「Coz it’s you…… . . 」
Those two were making a merry conversation .
「Rietto………… What are you doing here? 」
「Ah, Omiros! ! EH, what happened? What’s up with all those wounds on your body? Are you all right? . 」
Rietto rushed towards Omiros .
「Well, don’t worry about me, Rietto…… I can manage it somehow . Rather, what are you doing here? 」
Omiros replied using a brave tone to try and make Rietto stop worrying about him . But one could easily tell from his expression that his body was hurt all over .
「It’s not me, it’s werewolf-san! ! I don’t care about what happens to someone like Regena . I just clung on to werewolf-san all this time . 」
Rietto said as she hid behind Omiros’s back .
Omiros and I looked at the werewolf .
「Yeah, that scary person told me to protect you……… That’s why I followed your scent and arrived at this place . 」
The werewolf sayid while laughing merrily .
「Protect, me? 」
Tilting my head due to the unexplainable situation, I wondered what he meant?
