Isekaid 40ish Man Returns, Regressed as a Peerless 17-Year-Old - Chapter 1.6
The source of the danger detection magic I had casted on Yui was at the park where we had talked earlier.
I crossed my arms and stretched out my back and entered the atmosphere in the well known “Gainax Pose”.
As I felt the impact on the soles of my feet, I wonder if it was 97 when the late night rerun of the Gainax produced “Evangelion” became popular once again.
Remembering this, I check the park with my naked eye.
Surrounding Yui are three women who look like valkyries from Norse mythology.
They are targeting Yui with obvious hostility.
Cosplay….or not.
Their existence is clearly different from that of the creatures on earth.
I never noticed them before I went to another world.
I wonder if Yui was just caught up in it or if she has some kind of connection….
I slowed down at 300 meters above the ground and landed in my current pose, covering Yui from behind.
「Ka…..Kazu…..? Why are you here? No, how did you get down….Ah, mou! Escape, hurry!」
Glancing behind, I found Yui’s forehead drenched in sweat.
And one broken arm?
There was one human corpse and one oddly shaped magic trace that seemed to have been killed in an explosion.
「Is it safe to assume that Shiratori is fighting against these guys to protect humanity?」
「How can you just swallow everything that fast? Aren’t you going to ask first if this is cosplay or not?」
「That’s unnecessary. I don’t think they’re humans.」
「Could it be that…..you’re a “staff”?」
「I have no idea what kind of person a staff is but I do know that there are things around that wants to kill my childhood friend.」
「Kazu…..what’s with that? How can a person who grew up in japan have such an idea….」
「I’ve been through a lot. And I really mean a lot.」
「Kazu….?」
The enemies won’t wait for our conversation to end.
One of the abominations has thrust its spear towards me.
So that’s how it is. It’s certainly a move a human can’t make.
It’s definitely trying to kill me.
The human corpse lying there was no doubt the work of these guys.
I caught the tip of the spear, stopped it, and snapped it off.
「Eh…..?」
Shiratori was surprised. As for me, I looked at the spearhead.
It’s not a matter but solid magic power.
「H…….how did you do that? Dark valkyries’ weapons should be so hard that only divine objects can go against it….」
「So, there guys are called dark valkyries?」
「You don’t know that—-watch out!」
The dark valkyrie struck me with the spear with a broken head.
I caught it with my palm and pulled it to me. Then, I attacked the dark valkyrie’s chest.
「Guaaa!」
I ignored the struggling dark valkyrie and pulled its heart out of its chest.
Instead of blood, purple smoke gushed out of the gaping hole in its chest.
「It has a heart」
The heart pulsing in my hand was identical to that of a human.
Eventually, the heart slowly stopped moving as it leaked out purple smoke too.
This heart is indeed “flesh”.
The same is true for the body that I struck.
However, the components that make up the body also include things that are different from a human as can be seen from the purple smoke.
It could be said that they are similar to the demons from the other world.
「You pierced the chest plate of that thing with bare hands!? Without magic power, even a tank shell could only scratch it….do you have divine object?」
「I don’t know what divine object you are talking about but I’m using physical strengthening magic.」
It seems to be a type of being that nullifies physical attacks but having fought countless enemies like that, I have a habit of always covering the surface of my body with magic power.
I’m talking about magic and facing an enemy like this. If I tell this to anyone, they’ll think I’m crazy.
「M-magic…..you can cast magic….? Not magic too….?」
Two dark valkyries leapt at the surprised Yui from behind.
I decopined them at the sky.
TN: Decopin is a punching machine.
Then, with a bang, the heads of the dark valkyries were blown off.
「Eh……? What did you do…….? T-their heads were! Ah, they’ll self-destruct!」
These guys can self-destruct even without heads?
Well then!
I covered the dark valkyries in physical barrier magic and crushed them by making the barrier smaller.
The remaining chunks of flesh turned into purple sand and flowed in the night breeze.
「Three of them in an instant….Kazu….you are……?」
Yui is stunned and it looks like she has a lot of questions she wants to ask.
