I Reincarnated as a Villain of an RPG, But I Want to Survive - CH 73
The assaulting boar and bird
「Don’t do anything unnecessary. This matter will become a mess」
A devastating mess
I want to settle it in peace
I want to destroy the Resistance’s opposing stance without bloodshed
If you guys intervened by force then you will ruin my plan
「My action has Grey Ryuuga’s permission. In other words, obstructing me means going against Grey Ryuuga」
He’s the first rank
「Ugh……!?」
These two are people who were given the name of the empire’s strongest
……I let these guys tail me without notice and guide them to the Resistance headquarter easily, what a blunder!
「Besides, I don’t intend to let you guys do as you please. Certainly, your Twelve Apostles rankings are higher than mine. However, you know there is the absolute rule that takes precedence over anything else, right?」
It’s 『Strength is justice』
「If you want to destroy my work no matter what then I will stop you guys by force. That being said, we have never fought against each other, do you guys want to try out?」
「Well, don’t say something so unfriendly……」
One of the 2 idiots opposing me, the eighth rank Kuwasally casually approached me
She then leans and pushes her voluptuous body against me?
「You are also from the Empire so you understand, right? How ashamed it is for the one without any achievement over there. Just a little is fine, we just want to be able to puff up with pride」
Saying so, she write the letter 『の (no)』 on my chest
Many times over
Honey trapping!?
「If you let us take over, your relationship with us will also get better, it’s like killing 2 birds with one stone, right? We all are Twelve Apostles but it’s unfair that you are so indifferent with us……」
She said with a coaxing, goosebumb-inducing voice……
「Saraka-san and Forte-san are lovely too, but don’t you want to try out a different taste once in a while?」
However, her eyes are certainly that of a bird of prey aiming for its prey
She is certainly different from Forte and Saraka. She’s perfectly conscious of using her own charm as a weapon
「W, wait a sec, Sally!? What are you doing?」
「Pretending to be innocent at this time is boorish, you know, Gaia-chan?」
「I’m not pretending!?」
The bewitching Kuwasally and the innocent Zelimgaia
They complement each other mutually, should I say they are a good duo?
「But I refuse」
I separated myself from the clinging Kuwasally
「I have 2 wives waiting at home so I don’t have any leeway to put my hand on other women. But seriously. Don’t openly use honey trapping!」
「What a stubborn person! You won’t listen to our wish no matter what? Then it can’t be helped……」
Kuwasally leaps back and stands next to her partner
「Oh, it’s time for it right, Sally? The use of force!?」
「The strategy is simple. Gaia-chan, you use suicide attack towards Jirat to gain time, I will kill the Resistance during that time!」
「You want to use me as a decoy and snatch all the profit!?」
「I will pick your bones later」
How can Gaia be together with such a partner?
In other words, the negotiation is over, it can’t be helped
「I will accept your challenge. In order to reconcile with the Resistance, I will kill anyone who oppose」
「「Such contradiction!?」」
Then, just when I’m about to invoke Holy Beast mode against those who want to die……
「Hold up, Nii-chan」
From behind, a voice called out to stop resounds
When I turned back, it’s Sero appearing from the Resistance hideout
「Sero!? Why are you here!?」
「If you are so noisy at the entrance, everyone will come out to check the situation……!」
Looking back, it’s not just Sero
Leader-san and many Resistance members come out cautiously
「Sorry! I’m sorry for being noisy!!」
「Nii-chan, can you let me do it?」
Sero calmly said
「I decide to overthrow the empire. I want to defeat those guys from the empire with my own hands as many as possible. If they say to destroy the resistance, they are undoubtedly my enemies. I will fight」
「Heeh, some nerve you have there」
The seventh rank Zelimgaia steps forward in response
「As one of the empire’s Twelve Apostles, I love brave people. In light of those caustic words, let’s have a one-on-one match against me」
「Wait Gaia-chan, what are you deciding on your own?」
「Someone who tried to use me as a sacrificial pawn shouldn’t complain! As a revenge, you are following me this time, okay?」
「How boorish……」
By skillfully argue with her partner, she was able to change it into a solo battle
In other words, she’s thinking 『I will hog this merit to myself!』……。
「Sero-kun intended to fight alone……!?」
「The enemy is one of the Twelve Apostles……!?」
「That’s absurd……!?」
The commotion also spread on the Resistance side
The fame of the Twelve Apostles was properly transmitted to them
It was also rampant during the Bresden war
A battle is a chance for a strong person to be famous. Right now, the Twelve Apostles is a the level where a crying child would be silent upon hearing
That part is already similar to the game
「That’s okay. Besides, I want Nii-chan to see it. The way I fight」
Sero, strong
「After Nii-chan left, I always want you to see how strong I have become. I tried my best in other to become strong. To overthrow the empire. Please witness the result of that!」
An one-to-one fight
Sero vs Zelimgaia
The flash pan is hit (1)
「Hey, boy (坊や)? You are indeed brave, but you are wrong at flaring up at me, the seventh rank of the Twelve Apostles, Zelimgaia. It’s stinky if you intend to fight me just to test your skill」
The beast piece Zelimgaia received from the emperor is 『Boar』
It’s inferior to the 『Ox』 Selen received, but it’s a dreadful animal that use charge attack with its powerful leg strength
Just now, she lets out a snort 『Shuu』
That’s a warning sound
「Here I go! Beast Magic < Rampaging swift charge (Bousou tokkyuu)>!!」
The released Beast aura takes the shape of boar’s tusks
As an animal, the most terrifying thing about the boar is their full-power rush with those sharp tusks at the front
With leg strength and body weight, any human would be sent flying when being rammed with great speed. While being torn apart by the sharp tusks
Zelimgaia, who was granted such animal trait, is the power type that doesn’t match her cute outward appearance
In the previous Bresden war, although it’s said that she doesn’t work that actively like Forte, Saraka and Selen, she still ran over a large amount of enemy soldiers and sent them flying
If you take her charge directly then even your life would be in danger, Sero
「……Holy Wisdom art <Flowing water stance>」
However, Sero dodged with paper-thin gap
His movement is unique, elegant without any stagnance, just like flowing water
Holy Wisdom art <Flowing water stance> is a skill that treat the user’s body like water, repelling all dangers by yielding oneself to the flow without going against it
Speaking of ingame, it simply increases avoidance rate
He deals with Zelimgaia’s bulldozing appropriately. Nice choice, Sero!
「What’s with this guy……!? Using a strange technique!?」
Having missed the target, Zelimgaia kicked the ground and made an U-turn
「But, just avoiding is not enough! If I continue to charge, you will be hit eventually!」
Then Zelimgaia once again let out the Beast aura and charge
Sero easily avoids it
I see, I can certainly see his growth
During the training, I didn’t teach Sero <Flowing water stance>
In other words, after I left, Tanu-sage taught him
That beast is doing master-like thing properly, huh?
However, as the enemy said, the situation won’t change if this continues
The enemy won’t be killed if you keep dodging, and you can’t win unless the enemy is killed
In order to win, you must not only dodge but also have a means to deal damage to the enemy
3 years have passed since I left Tanu-sage
What progress did Sero make during that time?
It will become clear after this
(1): this means the start signal has occurred
