TDADP chapter 235: Tyrant
「Retreat there」
The rabbit beastwoman, Barbara, who has long white ears, is always arrogant to oni demon adventurer standing in front of the door.
「Ah. I’m just standing in, so I’m going to shift my time and come back」
The oni demon man with blue skin and two fine horns, tells Barbara, while scratching his head a little apologetic.
「I’m here to see why! Most of the other doors aren’t in the way of the tough adventurers, so I didn’t bother making this detour!」
The angry Barbara’s tail sways from side to side. Normally, the adventurer’s guild side does not intervene, as adventurers make a little noise. Even if they do, it’s done with care at best. In the first place, the adventurer system is an organization originally created to manage and effectively utilize the surviving outlaws. Despite claiming to be an adventurer, the roots are very crude and prefer to fight. Therefore, it is common sense to close your eyes even if there is some conflict in the Adventurer Guild. However, this time the story is another story. Comer City´s Adventurer Guild is built as sturdy as a military facility, with a group of tribes with a huge crowd that far surpasses the Giants and Oni demon tribes. In addition, it is strengthened by various magic and magic tools. It should not be possible to hear the sound from the large room where the adventurers are a little violent and the counter where there is a receptionist such as Barbara in the place where the adventurer boasts a little.
「It’s the usual fuss. A little bit will make it quieter」
Of course this is a lie. This male oni demon was an acquaintance of Noah and didn’t let the staff of the adventurer guild pass like a gatekeeper in front of the door so as not to disturb the battle between Noah and Yakum. At other doors, adventurers belonging to 『Red Meteor』 were similarly blocking people from passing by.
「You! That’s not true! The sound even to the reception desk is a little noisy, let alone the adventurer guild is not swaying! ! Even when Joseph and Noah were hitting each other, there was no such vibration. Now, let us go through」
「Calm down」
「Kyaa! Dont touch me! Someone~! A young lady is being attacked!!」
「Innocent....... I’m not that old」
「Wh, What!! This, hey, no!」
Barbara hits his chest and belly, but for the male oni demon, it’s like a stroke. If you pay by hand involuntarily become saverted.
「Ouch!? Y, You hit me! My pretty hand, how dare you!!!」
「I just hit you a little. Exaggerated」
The oni demon intended to touch her lightly, but he is also an adventurer of the demon tribe. Barbara may have felt as if she had been beaten with a wooden stick. While rubbing the back of her red hands, Barbara with tears glares at the male oni demon.
「If that’s what you want, I have an idea too!」
「Dangerous」
「Edda-san, adventurers are rampaging and destroying guild equipment!」
「Baa!? Idiot! Stop it!」
The male oni demon, who turned pale in a different way, hurriedly closed Barbara’s mouth. If you’re an adventurer in the city of Kama, everyone knows that the most scary thing in the Adventurer Guild is Edda, not Morphis, the guild master.
「Hanahinahyaiyo!!!」
「Come on. Don’t bite me」
---------------------------------
The interaction with Barbara in the corridor was quite different from the killing intent swirling in the large room.
「Pee」
Noah spits out the blood collected in his mouth. Noah’s unique skill, 『Strong Enemy Belligerence』, in which his physical ability increases as the opponent is stronger, was already being activated. Nevertheless, he is being pushed around by Yakum in a manual combat. Even though his opponent is a giant, it is nothing but a humiliation for Noah, a demon, who lags behind other races in a meatball battle without weapons.
「Shit, I’ll kill you!」
It was only a short time, but Noah stuck his hand into the item pouch if it wasn’t worth it in a meatball battle.
「Id, Idiot!」
「Foolish. Noah you bastard, you’re serious!」
Noah’s hand was holding a bar of fire, called a fire roaring metal bar. The blazing fire scattered the heat as if to inform the surroundings of its existence. And Tropi came to the same conclusion as Noah.
「I don’t like giants because they’re wastefully sturdy」
As the earth spirits gather, they form a disproportionately large battle axe in front of Tropi’s body.
「You, holding your specialized weapons in your hands, while I´m going easy on you」
Yakum also carries a war hammer as if to respond to them.
「Ah? Who said you need to go easy on us?」
「Ahaha. I have to apologize to Count Muss later. I’m sorry to kill the house guest he cares about so much」
「Silent!」
The enormous killing intent of the three are intertwined in a complicated manner, causing tension to the adventurers watching them from the surrounding. If a Noah-class adventurer seriously rampages, it’s not enough how robust the adventurer guild is.
「Someone needs to stop these guys」
「Then, you stop them」
「Don’t be silly!」
「I’m going to take a break because I remembered a little urgent work」
「Let’s go!」
People who have already evacuated or who are scared to see the situation have already left and only the acquaintances of Noah and Tropi and those who belong to 『Red Meteor』 have set up a barrier in the room in anticipation of danger, but they are restless, as everyone knew it was going to happen.
「Don’t disturb me because I’m going to kill you」
「Well, I think I can kill better」
「I’ll kill you too」
「Ahaha. It doesn’t change whether I kill one or two」
There was no snippet of thinking of fighting Noah and Tropi together. It was a good idea to leave as long as you did not disturb each other, but if you do, it is a different story. Noah and Tropi face each other to get rid of the other before fighting Yakum. Then Noah’s acquaintances and those of 『Red Meteor』 react. If they didn’t fight together, a different conflict could break out elsewhere.
「What are those damn kids fighting for? Let’s get together, and let’s take it quickly――nuuu」
The crowd surrounding Noah, Tropi and Yakum are separated from side to side as if waves are divided. Standing there was a strangely shaped Namari wearing a black exoskeleton. As Namari slowly steps forward, the people are further separated.
「You are a bad guy」
Namari glares while looking up at Yakum. Noah has no word for Namari’s transformation. Tropi had already taken a long distance whether she was guessing something.
「What is it?」
「You attacked Eckart」
「Because he exposed a disgusting figure」
「You’re unkind to Noah and Tropi」
「What do you want to do? Are you complaining」
「I’ll beat you up!」
「Try it!!!」
Yakum’s left fist snarls and is swung down towards Namari.
「Dont――」
Noah’s reaction was delayed. This is a serious blow from Yakum who used 『Competition』. Even if the opponent is an ogre, the fist has the power to crush someone with a single blow. Everyone could easily imagine what would happen if Namari´s body receives that blow.
「Daryaa!」
Namari raises her right fist. Yakum’s huge fist and Namari’s fist touch. At the same time as the roar, a shock wave struck the whole body of Noah and the adventurers watching around and the flew through the air.
「O......Ooo」
Noah’s eyes are wide open. It was the same for those who were watching, as their eyes are wide open too and they have startling expressions. There was Yakum´s figure with his fist crushed and bones piercing his skin.
「Impossible!」
Contrary to the proud Namari, Yakum was calmly analyzing the damage he had suffered. Not only the left fist was injured, but also the radius and ulna were broken by the impact inside the left forearm protected by the adamantine gauntlet, piercing muscles and skin like a fist and a large amount of blood ran down the left arm dripping to the floor.
「Houka. I thought it would be easy, but I didn’t thought it’d go over expectations. But I can’t end it like this!」
Yakum bares his teeth and laughs. His body expands in the Adamantite armor and at the same time the right arm of Yakum is stripped. A huge war hammer is hammered into Namari’s right flank. It was not the sound of hitting a person. A deafening noise sounded as if a giant metal had collided with it.
「「Namari!!」」
Noah and Lalit scream. Yakum’s specialized weapon is a gem forged by his giant master. Namari received the war hammer strike directly. It was strange that Namari’s body remained intact.
「You bastard!」
Namari strikes the hammer as if nothing had happened. Despite just hitting it casually, it is fluttering and bending enough to think that the war hammer became a mess. However, using the recoil, Yakum activates the hammer technique, 『War Hammer Sensui』. He hit the hammer into the left side of Namari
「It’s a wound, isn’t it? It’s a bad body. Monster」
Looking at Namari’s feet, which did not quiver, Namari’s feet were stuck on the floor, which was filled with strong wood and reinforcement magic.
「If the other party is a monster, there’s nothing to be afraid of」
「Waa」
Using the recoil that Yakum used to slam the war hammer again, which he used in the hammer technique 『War Hammer Sensui』, Namari used a whirlwind to counter. Even a single blow will throw an attack that can cause fatal wounds to a large demon. The one who crawls is not the one who endures it.
「Sly. I’m the only one」
While he was attacking the heinous series of attacks, Namari was able to make a difference. There’s no defense.
(Do you want to receive the attack and close the distance without worrying about it?)
Yakum, a former soldier, did not attack at all. Yakum, who has a strong body that can receive demonic attacks and has an attack power that crushes evil monsters, is one appearance that should be aimed at as an vanguard. The attack simply doesn’t lead to Namari, which is brute force. Everyone shuts down at an unreasonable sight.
「Retreat」
「Ah? Who――geee!?」
One of the adventurers tries to flee when he sees the person appearing through the hedge, but notices that his body doesn’t move. Other adventurers look at their faces and try to flee in a hurry, but, like the adventurer earlier, they realize that they cant move even one finger of their bodies.
「Caught!」
Namari’s hand grabs Yakum’s right ankle. The small hand bites into the meat of Yakum.
「Take this!」
Yakum slams his elbow into Namari’s back, but Namari grabs Yakum’s ankle and shakes it.
「Tou!」
Namari slams Yakum on the floor casually. Not once or twice. It is continuous as for the return of a little while ago.
「Gahuu......this is a monster」
As expected, Yakum’s repeated slams cause damage to his tough body.
「At this rate......the guild, the adventurer’s guild will be destroyed!?」
「Who is going to stop that. No, I don’t want to stop them!?」
Lalit, who has already restrained Namari with steel thread to stop the fight, is being pulled back and his arms are being treated with shreds.
「Daoo!!」
Vigorously Namari strikes Yakum on the floor. The upper body of the huge Yakum sinks into the floor. In addition, Namari is horse riding him and shoots a fist. The shape of a fist is engraved on Yakum´s adamantite armor, ribs are crushed, internal organs are damaged and blood gushing out makes Yakum’s face bloody.
「Ondoryaa!!」
「Owaa」
Namari, who was dismissed by Yakum, rolls on the floor.
"After hitting as you pleased, you’re not so healthy――your body doesn’t move」
"He’s still fine――ah, umm, something’s wrong」
The movement of Namari and Yakum stops exactly like a still image. And Edda and Barbara appear from the crowd.
「Wai, danger. Look――it’s Edda-san」
Tropi sees Edda and tries to escape, but her body doesn’t move as expected.
「Tropi, you are involved in this fuss」
「Ehe. I, not――」
「You know what happens if you say something weird」
In the appearance of Edda who does not have a fragment of her usual calm atmosphere, Tropi puts out her tongue cutely.
「I’m sorry. I can’t say that to Edda. That’s why I want you to solve this restraint. Not good?」
「Wh, What」
「Guoooo. This!!!」
It wasn’t just Namari and Tropi that couldn’t move. Eckart and Noah, who had regained consciousness, or even everyone in the room, could not move as if they had been restrained with invisible shackles. At this stage are adventurers of rank C or higher. They are not adventurers of rank D or lower, as they are on the first floor. They were all detained at once.
「You guys got too excited. So promptly I――」
「Barbara, shut up a bit」
「Yes」
Barbara, who came out proudly, hurriedly blocked her mouth with her hand with Edda’s words and retracted behind Edda.
「Edda, what are you doing? Possibly, let’s break this gloomy barrier!」
Yakum stands up with all his might. From somewhere in his body, you can hear the sound of the flesh of the meat shattering.
「I can’t hear you! This――gaaaaa!?」
The standing Yakum collapses like a reverse play and sinks into the floor.
「Before this drop, I will have Count Muss pay money to settle this fight」
The magic power of the barrier that restrains Yakum increases and Yakum’s body is proportionately tightened.
「Mu......Muss-dono, relation to this......there is none! I’m on my own, aaah!! It’s a depressing barrier!!」
「Baka! I don’t think you can go against Edda-san’s barrier, so don’t lie......」
The sight of Namari walking against the barrier of Edda comes into Barbara’s eyes.
「Wh, What the hell. That monster!? E, Edda-san」
「Troublesome」
「It’s not the time to say that!」
In spite of the words, Edda pours her magic power into the barrier that restrains Namari without looking at the situation that she is much troubled.
「Uninii! O, that......strong, this demi-human!」
Barriers that bound Namari were disabled one after another and Edda restrained her with new barriers from that side, but still couldn’t stop Namari’s walk.
「Oh, it won’t stop. What should we do?」
Barbara rushes to Edda, who says she was in trouble with her hand on her cheek.
「It’s not a case of being carefree! Please do something quickly!」
「Uooooooo!!」
Namari’s movement gradually gets faster.
「But if I do more, it will kill her」
「Stop bullshiting me, old woman! That’s Namari!! Give me a hand, I’ll hit you, buu――gebuuu!?」
Noah’s body is crushed. It is natural that it was Edda who did it.
「I need to punish that child Noah slowly later. But why did that cute Namari-chan look like that?」
「Edda-san! She is coming!!」
「I understand, let go of my skirt」
Edda moves her arms intricately. Magic power forms a rectangle and appears one after another in front of Namari, blocking the way.
「Daoo!!」
The barrier that received Namari’s fist collapses even if it is brittle.
「Well, did you hear Barbara? 『Daoo』, its cute Namari-chan even if her figure changed」
「It’s not cute at all!」
「I want Barbara to have some room, but I wonder how my barriers were so fragile? You should think Namari-chan is doing something here」
When Barbara almost gave up, a five-colored sword pierces the floor around Namari, forming a pentagram. Five swords, consisting of fire, water, wind, earth and light, ran around them and gave a heinous seal to Namari due to the synergistic effect with the barriers developed by Edda.
「It was dangerous, so I decided to seal her」
「Ah, isn’t it Claudia」
Claudia Barring, 『Sword Dance Princess』 who holds the spirit sword Fifth Element, stood in a prominent position to appeal to Edda and the adventurers around her.
「Why are you here?」
Yakum asks Claudia that, who was supposed to be in Muss´s mansion and has appeared here.
「Are these your first words? You’d like to thank me for helping you. Well, that’s fine. Why is Joseph back?」
「Is that idiot back? No way, Ka-chan」
「He is not dead, but he won’t be useful for the time being」
Claudia’s words spill out killing intent from Yakum´s whole body.
「What did Mardari do!」
「It’s noisy. In Madari´s case, when Joseph appeared, he ran away」
「That bastard!!! He abandoned Ka-chan!!」
Yakum stood up against the barrier of Edda, but as soon as Edda poured magic into the barrier, he was crushed and crawled to the floor.
「And what is this monster?」
「It’s not a monster. It’s Namari-chan」
「Namari is that demonic child?」
「Tedaredesne. Namari, Tsikashimasu」
「He?」
Claudia leaks a stupid voice to the suddenly heard inorganic voice. Integral, no, from the winding angle that is popping out of the exoskeleton that covers Namari. Now a monster transformed into a single black slime oozes out and begins to cover Namari. Unfortunately, an adventurer with a high level of 『Analysis』 sees the status of the black slime.
「Hi, a, aa......aaaaaa!!!」
He fell into depression immediately and was upset, but fortunately or unfortunately, he was shut down by Edda´s barrier and did not cause any damage to the surroundings.
「I have a bad feeling about it」
「Namari-chan, I wonder if it’s a rebellious period」
Claudia and Edda’s elf combination gently watch, how the exoskeleton covering Namari-chan change to a more aggressive shape.
「Kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!!」
It was a strange voice that no one thought, that Namari had uttered. If Edda had not stretched the barrier, many would have their eardrums damaged.
「Obedient Shiinasai. Namari, Shihairyoku」
「I......I, I know」
One of the ten demons that obey Namari, 『Enchanting Cry Queen Quin』, rampages to escape Namari and Nana’s control. What is going on between Namari and the black slime? After a short time, the shape of the exoskeleton covering Namari becomes stable.
「Uoooo!」
The barrier that was inhibiting Namari’s movement begins to crack the pentagram drawn by the five swords.
「Edda!!」
「I’m doing my best」
Claudia looked at Edda sideways and found that her forehead was lightly sweaty. If you take a glance around you, Momo was in line with adventurers and Yakum. Unlike other adventurers, the barrier that restrains Momo isn’t one or two, but the barriers of various shapes are intertwined and rotate irregularly, sealing the fairy princess Momo. However, Momo was gradually breaking the edge of Edda´s barrier.
「Concentrate here!」
「No good. If Momo-chan participates here, it’ll be a hassle」
「Tsk. Let’s work together!!」
Claudia uses the sword technique 『Flash』 to cut both of Namari’s ankles. In response, Edda releases only part of the barrier. Edda can easily do the feat of moving Claudia at high speed and even breaking the barrier at the target area.
(Don’t feel bad about it)
Spirit sword Fifth Element, the treasure of the elves where the spirits dwell. That’s where Claudia’s weapon, a sword master called 『Sword Dance Princess』 joins. A sword that cuts everything strikes Namari’s ankles.
But――
「Guu......! I was hit!?」
Claudia, whose hands were numb by the impact and unintentionally released her sword, regained her posture and regained her grip of her dancing sword.
「I really have to kill her......」
「If Namari-chan dies――」
「I know! If I don’t do it that way, it will mean that she won’t stop!!!」
Claudia sets up the spirit sword Fifth Element. Namari doesn’t stop with an odd attack. That’s the only way to get rid of the extremities. From now on, Claudia will release the sword technique 『Falling Camellia Flower』. It is a technique to cut off the neck of the subject so that the camellia flower falls if it is decided as the name suggests, but the aim is not the neck but the wrist and ankle with the thinnest exoskeleton. Although it failed earlier, Claudia is determined that this is the best. She has to release the extremely difficult technique of releasing her high-ranking sword to four places at the same time so as not to kill Namari. Claudia’s spirit, which requires extraordinary concentration, is eroded in sight, but cannot be failed.
「Joseph, this loan is expensive!」
A beautiful sword flashes into the air while slashing through the air. In response to the forthcoming spirit sword, Fifth Element, Namari reduced the distance to Claudia and received the blade with her head.
「Kyaa!?」
The spirit sword Fifth Element, flutters in the air and pierces the floor deeply. Claudia’s wrists, which released the sword, were broken by the impact. Namari passes by her side. Despite Claudia’s fateful attack, Namari did not receive even a small wound.
(Joke, this isn’t a joke――)
――An abominable memory that is not a demon king revives in Claudia’s brain.
「E, Edda-san......」
「This might not work」
「Eeh!?」
Namari stops in front of Yakum.
「I’ll do it!」
Even now, dozens of barriers cast by Edda are blocking Namari’s movements, but Namari still won’t stop. And slowly released her fist.
「Nunn!!」
Yakum, who is unable to move satisfactorily in the barrier, raises his left arm with all his might and receives Namari’s fist. However, the Adamantine gauntlet screams with a dull scream. Namari’s fist sinks into Yakum’s left forearm.
「Th, This monster!」
「Edda!! Dissolve the barrier around Yakum!!」
「Even if you say so, Yakum was the one who destroyed the guild」
Namari’s fist had reached the Adamantite armor over Yakum’s chest, in front of the confused Edda.
「Mou! Why are you so inflexible!!」
Everyone thought that Yakum would die. Even Edda and Claudia alone couldn’t stop it. Who can stop the existence of such violence? At that time everyone can only watch――
「Namari-chan?」
The voice of a girl echoed in the room.
「It’s Namari-chan. Not good」
The girl was Colette. She heard the commotion and ran upstairs. Surprisingly, Namari’s movement stops at Colette’s call.
「Because this guy」
「Don’t do that. Yuu-san will be sad」
「......Odono-sama?」
「I’m begging you to stop」
The room was enveloped in silence. And then――
「............I understand. I’ll do what Collette-oneechan say」
One powerless girl has accomplished what everyone had given up.
「No way. That girl has stopped that child」
「As one would expect from Collette」
In contrast to the stunned Claudia, Edda was pleased.
----------------------------
Woods was still enthusiastically hammering his hammer at the smithy on Nameless Island.
「How about this, master?」
A fallen demon woman which has just been trained under Woods shows a sword to Woods.
「Oh, it’s not a good feeling. Try raising the temperature more this time」
Woods, a typical barrel-shaped dwarf, now has lost his useless fat, and his muscles hiding under it appear and his body was squeezed so much that no one would be aware of him as a dwarf if they didn’t see it nearby.
「No, No, No! King! Please reconsider!」
The scream of Mauno, the head of the Fallen Demon Tribe, echoes from behind the blacksmith’s yard.
「Noisy, maybe only one」
「Still no! I’m not myself!」
「It’s a joke. When did it turn out to be you?」
Mauno was whining in the thing wrapped in a big cloth that Yuu was holding.
「Ou, isn’t it, Yuu? What’s going on?」
「Uncle, help me」
「Ooo!? Woods-dono, good timing! Woods-dono can you say something? The king will take the horn of the old dragon from me!」
「That’s what I’m supposed to do. It’s probably mine. I’m saying it’s the smallest horn to take and there is only one」
「Still no!」
Finally, Mauno lays down on the ground, flapping his limbs and crying. It is surprising to anyone who knows Mauno.
「We, Well, Mauno-san aside. Is it because of my inability to use the old dragon materials?」
「No, it’s a bit crazy, so I told to substitute the old dragon material instead, but Mauno whips like a little kid」
「That’s fine. I’ve tried a lot of things, but it’s not going well」
「I’m not in a hurry」
「I’m going to help if you say that. That’s right, are you in bad shape?」
「Why?」
「Arent your eyes bright red」
Woods tries to look into Yuu’s eyes, but Yuu misses his face and fails to meet his eyes.
「It’s nothing. Well, then I have a place to go」
「Where are you going in such a hurry?」
「Even if you know, I don’t want to stay」
「Ah? What are you saying?」
After removing Mauno clinging to his feet, Yuu leaves the blacksmith. Woods looked away from behind. Woods had to think about how to comfort Mauno, who is still crying at the forge.
