A story of the time Setsu and I was summoned to this world――――――――――

“Setsu, why are you so calm about this?”

“Hah! Hah! …Ah? What is this about so suddenly?”

Setsu was single mindedly swinging a wooden sword .

Those eyes of his that didn’t hold any hesitation was even eerie from my point of view that time .

“I mean… even though we suddenly came to a world we don’t understand… You already adapted to it . You seem like you already know what you should be doing you know”

“Uhmm… Let’s see . . ”

Without stopping the hand swinging the sword, Setsu said .

“What I ought to be doing… first of all I have to get stronger right? The world looks like it has monsters and demon kings and stuff . You don’t wanna die either right?”

“ … I err . ”

I was hesitating to say it .

That when I was in j.a.pan, I thought I wanted to die .

“I don’t get it, but if you say you don’t wanna die, then I’ll protect you . ”

“Eh?”

“You’re a fellow from the same village, right? It must be fate, let’s get along okay?”

“ … I can?”

It was the first time I met someone who said something like that for me .

Grey hair and red eyes; due to this kind of appearance, I never had anyone say gentle words to me .

Even my parents said I was creepy and did not come close .

That’s why, it was the first time .

I felt my heart beating and warming up .

“Of course you can, Touma”

He… called my name with a gentle smile .

“Yuki-kun…”

“Oh, looks like you took that girl down, Yuuhi . ”

Judging from her appearance, Yuuhi doesn’t seem to be hurt .

More importantly――――――――

“Got done in pretty flashily huh, you guys . ”

I say towards the bunches who are on the ground .

“Haha… I’m ashamed . ”

“f.u.c.king strong you know, this guy…”

Glain and Roa was forcing a smile .

Most of them are hurt pretty badly, but I guess there’s no one here who’ll be dying anytime soon .

Hm? What, Ides and Lily are alive .

I guess I lost what worried me for now .

“Yuuhi, Levia . You can still move right? Gonna leave the healing of the guys on the ground to you two . ”

“alright . . ”

“Okay…”

After seeing the two starting their movement, I face Touma one more time .

“You really have the b.a.l.l.s to hurt these guys… ey? Oh Touma . ”

“ … I knew it, you won’t gently call me by my name like before . ”

“Of course I won’t . You, you do know what you’ve done right?”

He hurt a lot of people .

He crushed their feelings with his foot

And above all, he hurt my companions .

“I know . But, this is all for your sake!”

“…”

“It’s strange that you and I who love each other aren’t together! But you’re not in the wrong . It’s the fault of the demons, the beastmen and a part of the humans who are deceiving you! They’re necessary sacrifices to rescue you, you know . ”

… going f.u.c.king mad like always .

“Rather… that brown haired girl over there called you with Yuki-kun didn’t she?”

“Ah? What about that――――――――――――”

“Why is it that she is… calling my Setsu by a nickname so over familiarly!?”

Touma pointed his hands towards Yuuhi who was in the middle of treating Elka .

Yuuhi noticed that, but she’s already too late .

“Disappear!”

An extra large fireball was fired .

If I remember correctly, Yuuhi’s forte was supposed to be fire magic .

If it’s her then she should get a little damage, but Elka who was in the same place would die for sure .

“Oh no you don’t”

That’s why I wedged myself between the fire and Yuuhi and the rest and bisected that fire with Kuromaru .

“Ugh! Don’t get in the way!”

“The one doing unnecessary stuff is you . You can just fight with me, okay?”

The chopped fire dispersed in the sky and vanished .

The two don’t seem to have any damage for now .

“They’ll end up getting rolled in if we fight like this… Hey Touma, we’re gonna change locations . ”

“ … Why do I have to go out of my way to do something to your advantage?”

“If you ain’t listening to me… then I’ll force you . ”

I kick the ground and instantly shorten the distance .

I swing down Kuromaru as is, aiming for Touma’s body .

“Kuh!”

Touma drew out a one handed sword from inside his black robe and caught it .

With my unadjusted attack, the ground caved in .

With my unadjusted attack, the ground caved in .

“I still have more power than you I guess . ”

“As ever… that animal strength…!”

“We’re changing places right away! Here!”

I kick up this guy who became entranced despite stopping Kuromaru with my foot .

With the attack that created an opening, Touma was launched up high in the sky .

I also jump up to chase after him .

““

We landed simultaneously in midair .

The ground can be seen far below .

“You’re really… not going easy on me are you”

“You’re not in a position where I will go easy on you don’t you think?”

“Well, that is true… though! !”

Touma produced a spear that was grandly shining in his hand .

It’s a magic that’s like the backbone of light magic, but when Touma uses it then it’ll become several times as large .

“What I need to do once to make you a man just for me seems to be to beat you once!”

“d.a.m.n…”

I stop the lance with Kuromaru .

The lance that was created with light magic is a lump of energy condensed of sacred light .

It’s not something that can be stopped so easily .

“Unghh… Grah!”

I somehow repelled it right over my head .

The lance which went and flew right above me, bursted in the sky after flying upwards to a certain height so that it scatters its energy .

“… Are you done warming up?”

“I could ask the same thing . ”

I reply and then Touma pointed his hand to the open air .

“Come――――――――――

The airs.p.a.ce broke and a sword handle appeared .

“Fighting you won’t get anywhere if I don’t have this after all . ”

A sword that, unlike Kouma’s sacred sword, held a pitch black edge was grasped in that guy’s hand .

Even though it was a sword that was shining in the beginning…

“I know that your sword is user unfriendly . I’m sorry, but I’m going to have this end before you can draw it out, Setsu . ”

“Try and do it then… if you can!”

I kick the sky and get closer to Touma .

“Haaaaah!”

Similarly Touma kicked the air and quickly approached me .

Kuromaru and the sacred sword clashed, spreading shockwaves as far as the eye can see .

“The sky is… cut open…”

Having finished her treatment, Desastre murmured while watching the sky .

The two were exchanging blows with their swords in the air and each time they do, the thick rain clouds covering the sky scattered away .

“Good grief… they’re on a different level aren’t they . ”

Beside her, Levia said like she was amazed .

Everyone in this place was made aware of the difference between themselves and the two .

“Yuki-kun…”

“Gah…”

“You think you can win from me with power!?”

I swing down Kuromaru from right overhead .

Touma was not in time to have each arms on his sacred sword and guard, so I was able to hit his shoulders .

Touma who was knocked down below, created a scaffold with

“I knew I won’t get in enough damage if you have . ”

“It’s simply painful though!”

“Woah!”

Countless number of light spears appeared around Touma .

They’re on the same scale as the one that was beaten in the beginning, but there were about 40 at a glance .

“There’s no escape!”

I cut off those spears that were all fired at once and sometimes stop and avoid them .

However――――――――――

“d.a.m.n… it!”

There are too many of them .

One of the spears slipped through my guard and reached my stomach .

“There, impact”

The other spears then took the opportunity to come and attack the c.h.i.n.k that was created there .

“Gh… that f.u.c.king hurts man!”

I swing my arm and mow down the blast .

My field of vision cleared up, but Touma’s no longer there .

“Up here Setsu――――――――――!”

“Wh!”

Touma was right above me .

If that guy swings his sacred sword, then a will be fired with a sharpness that’s carried to the extremes .

(Not good… If I defend it with Kuromaru then Kuromaru will end up getting bisected…!)

I thrust my hand into my magic bag right away, took out a sharp sword which I don’t know when I got my hands on, and stopped the blow with it .

Although I naturally strengthened it with magic, that sword was easily cut and even a cut was put on my body .

“Ow…”


“Ow…”

While blood is dripping from my shoulders, I regain my posture in midair .

Sacred sword wielders have one more ability, or rather a special characteristic .

When they attack a sacred sword wielder with their own sacred sword, then that would make invalid .

Because we have that, sacred sword wielders essentially can’t be taken down without another sacred sword wielder .

“Huh? Isn’t your arm getting dull?”

“Hah! Say whatever you want!”

“Gh!”

I throw away the cut sword and once again re-equipped Kuromaru .

I kick the sky to get closer to Touma and then I swing down Kuromaru without hesitation .

!”

“That’s all…!”

I release which is a technique where you swing down and slice up, but it was entirely defended by his sacred sword .

However, the time I sliced up, I successfully repelled Touma’s sword upwards .

“Oh no!”

!”

I throw Kuromaru up and then drive my fist several dozen times into Touma with all my might .

has a delicately low stance against strikes .

Since I can’t thoughtlessly draw out my sacred sword, I can only attack him like this .

“Gah… Kuh… That hurts you know!”

The pummeled Touma impatiently tried to release magic from point-blank range .

Having sensed that, I quickly fall down and catch Kuromaru that came falling .

Touma also moved a little and caught his sacred sword that came falling down .

“Heh, your face turned out pretty good there . ”

“Ugh… how cruel, beating the h.e.l.l out of me . ”

Touma’s face became a little swollen .

It immediately healed through his self-healing ability, but the fact he receive damage should be certain .

As for the wound on my shoulder, it’s also healing so we’re even right now I guess .

“It can’t be helped then… I don’t like fighting sluggishly so… shall we up the pace a little?”

“Ah?”


Touma pointed his sacred sword towards me .

His magic began to fill the sacred sword and the black aura spreaded .

――――――――――――”

“… What is that . ”

The form of the sacred sword changed .

First gigantic and then long .

Touma held the gigantic gun under his arm and pointed its muzzle to me .

“It’s the ’s new possibility, Setsu . Now, it’s the second stage!”

The trigger that was joined by the hand he had next to it, was pulled――――――――――
