Chapter 89 - Episode Twelve
Gordon takes one look at the axe he stabbed into the ground and snickers.
“For a weak kid like you, I don’t need to use a weapon. Right hand or left hand, which hand should I not use? Take your pick.”
Gordon cocked his head from side to side and made a crackling sound.
As a side note, it’s not a good idea to turn your neck to make a sound.
It’s part of the radio exercises, but it puts a lot of strain on the bone joints. I’ve been rushed to the hospital in my past life because of it.
“Stupid bitch. Hahaha, you’re too scared!”
Gordon came running in with an exaggerated swing of his right arm.
“Even if I look like this, I’m the most powerful man in the slums. Abel, as your senior, I’m going to drive it into you that the adventurer’s world is Survival of the Fittest. You may never get a chance to make use of it again, though! Don’t feel bad about it, if I hadn’t done it, someone else would have done it.”
How can I do this without injuring him badly and still reduce Gordon’s will to fight?
As I thought, using large scale magic as quickly as possible is the fastest way.
Bigger is stronger. It’s easy to understand at a glance.
“Oh earth, form, hand.”
At the same time I waved my wand, Gordon drew his right arm and waved his left arm.
“You thought it was my right? I’m left-handed, you know. If you had told me to be honest, I would have told you to use that one…… Uwaaa!”
Gordon was bounced off a wall of dirt that emerged from the ground.
A ten-meter-long hand of earth blocked the space between Gordon and me.
“Ouch…… you, now you’ve don-…… E-, eh…… H-, hey, what, what is this?”
Gordon, who was about to get up, fell back on his ass and backed up in his stance.
Gordon put his hand on the axe and stood up from there.
“Oh earth, form, hand”
I grow another hand on the side blocking Gordon’s progress.
Gordon’s movements come to a complete halt.
“Which hand do you prefer? You can point it if you have a designation.”
I’ve carefully made a distinction between my right arm and my left arm, properly and carefully.
I’m the type of person who cares about the details.
“Whoaaaa!”
Gordon screams, holding the axe and hitting the dirt hand.
With a bang, the axe sticks in the hand of the earth. But of course, it’s not thick enough to cut away easily.
When Gordon tried to pull it out with his hands on the soil, he bent his arms greatly and Gordon’s body bounced into the air.
Gordon in his defenseless state flicked him lightly with the index finger of the earth hand.
Gordon rolled on the ground and hit his body against a tree root.
If I’ve done this much, I guess it’s okay now.
Gordon looked up with his dirt-covered face.
It seems to have fallen off his left cheek, it’s swollen red.
“Mordon! Shoot the sorcerer! That stops it! Hurry up!”
“B-, big brother, that’s…”
“I told you to hurry up!”
He’s completely in over his head.
I hoped I could scare him lightly, but I guess I scared him a little too much.
“Uh, uhhhh…… H-, hey, sorcerer, stop! You move a little, and I’ll shoot. I know you’re strong. But in this state, I can shoot you while you’re transferring the magic circle…… I won’t do you anything bad, for now, drop the wand……”
“Oh wind, form, blade”
I wave my wand at Mordon.
A blade of wind flies to Mordon.
“No-, no way, it’s too fast! Uwaa!”
Mordon belatedly fires an arrow.
The blade of wind engulfs the arrow, dropping it to the ground and hitting the bow that Maudon is holding readily. Trees shattered and shavings danced in the air.
The impact bounced of the bow causes Maudon to fall on his back.
“Hiii, no, no…… no way.”
I took my eyes away from Mordon, whose mouth was snapping open and closed, and turned back to Gordon.
When our eyes met, Gordon’s body shook with a jolt.
“It’s only when you’re an adventurer that your body gets so battered that you can’t ever be an adventurer again. I guess it was a thing. You wouldn’t say you weren’t ready, would you?”
He quickly lifts his wand and aligns the tip extension with Gordon’s head.
Gordon stares at the tip of the wand with his mouth wide open.
In contrast to earlier, his eyes were like a puppy with a lion in front of him.
Slowly, the water was spreading around his crotch area. He leaked because of fear, apparently.
Thi-, this is enough I guess.
If I scare him this much, he won’t get involved with us next time.
I looked at Mea, then back to Gordon, and lowered my wand.
“Don’t you ever get involved with us again. And don’t tell anyone about this time……”
“I’m sorry! I’m so sorry! I’m really sorry! Just spare my life! Just my life!”
“No, as i said……”
Gordon’s head hit the ground on the spot, a change from earlier.
“Because it’s dumb and annoying to have a man attached to a woman of ability, and sooner rather than later, even if it’s not me, someone will make a move. So I just thought it should be me! I thought I’d scare you into running away and expose your miserable ways, and I’m not serious about breaking your bones. The reason I asked Mordon to shoot the bow was because I got scared that you’re going to kill me for real! I didn’t think there was anything like this!”
You-, you’re changing too fast……
“If you really can’t get your mind off of it, just take it out on me! Mordon, my brother is a good-natured guy, unlike me! There is a little bit of independence, but if it weren’t for me, he would have done better in other places! Even if he party with other guys, unlike me, my brother is more cooperative and easier to deal with than he is, and I hear stories like that! So, so-!”
Gordon’s head intensely hits the ground.
“N, no, I get it, so just go away……”
“B, big brother, so you think of me like that……”
Mordon, with tears in his eyes, staggered over to Gordon.
“I’m sorry, brother! I’m such a bad brother to the end!”
Wailing and sobbing, Gordon and Mordon hugged each other tightly.
…… please do it in place without me.
