Isekaid 40ish Man Returns, Regressed as a Peerless 17-Year-Old - Chapter 5.15

「Come on everyone! Drink drink drink drinkkkkkk!」

The DJ is shaking her chest and encouraging the audience to drink.

I can see her underboob….no, I mean, that’s not it.

The music is echoing in my brain.

It’s not because of the volume being too high but a certain force is making me uncomfortable.

The other customers, including Yui, don’t seem to feel anything in particular.

The music, there’s a hint of magic in it…..?

I covered Yui’s ears.

「Eh? Eh?」

Yui panicked, blushed, and closed her eyes.

I cast a protective magic on Yui’s ears. My own ears too, of course.

「Everyone, let’s go!」

「「「Ohhhhhhhh!!」」」

As the DJ stirred things up, the music intensified….and soon, the crowd began to flutter and fall.

At the same time, five men and women appeared from behind the counter.

This feeling….all of them are variants.

「Ara? Looks like there’s still a couple standing there. Things like this happen from time to time. You know, some insensitive people.」

「Oi oi, get yourself together.」

The DJ shrugs her shoulders to the man who’s making fun of her.

「They’re not high. It’s your job to make sure that the drugs are distributed properly, right?」

「I don’t think there’s anyone out there who wouldn’t drink.」

I see. So, this is both a “diner” and a drug party for variants.

They will be drugging humans and eat them to get high.

However, you shouldn’t be that carefree.

You should know that letting your guard down can lead to death.

It’s too late for that now though.

「Yui! Everyone standing up!」

Yui, who had already activated her divine object covertly, releases all her magic power!

「—-what the!」「What the heck are you!?」「They’re from the “organization”!」

You’re too late to notice.

Kicking the ground, Yui first slashed the DJ’s head off with her leg, then landed on the wall.

「「「Guooooo——」」」

She sliced through the variants that were trying to transform and landed on another wall.

As it is, she flies around the venue by kicking walls, ceiling, and floor one after another.

To an ordinary person, she would appear to be nothing but countless black lines.

After all the variants in the venue were destroyed to pieces of flesh infused with magic power, Yui slowed down to a blur.

-0-

I would have kept one of them alive and torture it but with so many people down, there would surely be casualties.

I don’t think we would lose in a straight battle but if we were up against someone with special ability, we had to be prepared for one or two casualties depending on the ability.

I am well aware that there are times when that must be done but for now, I have decided that human life should come first.

Human life is more important than any information that may or may not be available.

「Ugh……I’m dizzy……」

I supported Yui, whose steps are suspiciously slow.

「You’ve done a good job. That wasn’t so bad.」

「Ehehe. Was I able to use the most of the location?」

「You perfectly did.」

「Ehehe! Great!」

Yui’s strength lies in her boldness to smile even in situations like this. Though let’s talk about that later.

「Though you left a residue.」

I magically hit one of the collapsed customers in the head with a spell.

「Guh…..how did you—」

I snapped my fingers at the variant, who said that and tried to stand up. His body shattered into pieces.

「The moment Yui decapitated the DJ, he immediately went down, pretending to be dead.」

「Ugh….I didn’t even notice…」

Yui was disappointed but she had defeated so many variants quickly and still had some energy left.

It is safe to say that she has become much stronger.

-0-

Soon, the corpses of the variants turned into purple sand and then disappeared as if melting into the air.

「W-what the heck is happening? Why is everyone down!?」

Sugita staggered out of the restroom, holding his head.

Was it because he was on the other side of the door that the DJ had less of an effect on him?

「I don’t know. But I think it’s better to escape for now.」

「I agree. I don’t want to get in trouble either. In a building like this, there should be a staff entrance over…there…..」

Sugita climbed over the counter and beckoned us toward something that appeared to be a back door.

I did not immediately follow him but looked around.

If you’re going to stock all drinks in terms of the arrangement of glasses and others, there should be the….found it.

I found a case filled with some kind of powder that was not seasoning and wrapped a tablespoon of it in a handkerchief.

「Oi! What are you doing? Let’s get the hell of out here!」

「I’ll be right there.」

We left the club.

We had a clue.

We took a step in the right direction.
