It Is A Different World And Yet I Am Cultivating Monsters - 155 155 "Privilege of the Hero"

“Is FERRID?

For the first time, Tsurugi’s voice is laced with impatient emotions in the face of Ferrido’s sudden appearance.

In response, Ferrido remains calm and addresses Tsurugi, “I don’t know why you are after this woman.

I don’t know why you’re after this woman. But I think she’s one of your associates. Then it doesn’t feel good to have her killed at random. We’re the same seven heroes, and I don’t want to fight with you, but if you’re going to go after this girl, I’ll fight to protect her.

Saying that, Feliddo extends his left hand as if to protect Luna.

Tsurugi is silent for a while, then slowly raises his right hand.

…… Well, no matter how much I explain my reasoning here, it doesn’t change the fact that I’m going to kill that person. Then I’ll just knock you out and get this over with.

“Will it work out so well?

The space in front of him distorts as soon as he mutters that.

However, the space that was about to be distorted dissipates like dew at the same time as Ferrido, who seems to have instantly noticed the distortion of the space, flashes his sword on the spot.

Despite Tsurugi’s astonishment, Feroz instantly approached her and swung his sword in a flash.

But as I just did to Lily, when the space where Turugi is distorted, Ferry’s sword slipped through her body.

It’s not good. As I thought, as long as she has the ability to displace that space, we can’t attack Tsurugi-san. Just when I thought that.

“I see.

He muttered to himself as if he understood something.

Then he fired his sword again at Tsurugi-san in front of him.

It’s a slightly more vigorous attack than before, but I don’t think that will help.

But as soon as he saw the flash, he took evasive action, as if he was in a hurry to avoid Turugi for the first time.

Why the evasive action?　As long as he has the ability to shift that space, there’s no need for Tsurugi to avoid the attack.

It wasn’t long before Ferrido’s flash of light touched the space around Tsurugi and at the same time a high-pitched sound ripped through something, simultaneously slicing through Tsurugi’s hood as he took evasive action.

”What?”

Seeing this, Lily and I let out a cry of surprise.

Tsurugi-san, who has the ability to manipulate space, was attacked!　To our confusion as to what the hell is going on, FERRID muttered to us.

It seems that our attacks have been disabled by displacing space, but if that ‘displaced space’ is all that’s left, then it’s possible for us to attack you from beyond if we cut you out of that ‘displaced space’.

That’s absurd!　This guy just said something outrageous!

But from the previous blow, I can see that this recklessness was possible for Ferrido.

I’m sure you’ll be able to find a way to make the most of it.

I’m sure you’ll be able to see that he is the one who has developed the most brave ability among the seven great heroes. Your ability to evolve yourself to fit your opponent’s needs is nothing short of foul.

I’ll take your compliments very kindly.

Turugi’s look of dismay returned to his sincere response to the sarcasm.

Then she shifted her gaze from Ferrido to Luna.

…………

The hood comes off to reveal the real face of Mr. Turugi as seen earlier.

Pale skin and silver hair. She looked beautiful like an angel, but now she was looking at Luna with a grim expression.

I’m comparing Tsurugi and Luna.

As expected, they look alike.

It’s not a resemblance.

But even so, the shape of the face, or rather the atmosphere it wears, is similar.

At least there’s some connection between these two people.

I’m not sure if Luna sensed this or not, but she was watching Tsurugi in front of her with a strange look on her face.

…… that’s it.

But as if to interrupt our thoughts, Tsurugi muttered with a sigh.

It’s difficult for me to kill Luna while dealing with your felid. So I’ll step aside for now.

As soon as I said that, Tsurugi’s figure disappeared.

I quickly shouted Tsurugi’s name, but before it could reach her ears, Tsurugi’s figure disappeared completely.

…… What the hell was that guy just now?

The other side, Luna, not understanding what happened, muttered and even her protector, Felid, quietly put his sword away.

It seems that they managed to intercept her, but from the way she was acting, it doesn’t look like they’ve given up on her yet.

With that said, FERRID approaches us.

Certainly. Turgi’s intent to kill Luna was real.

I don’t know what happened, but at least I knew he was coming for Luna’s life again.

I just want to thank you. I owe you thanks for saving my life.

“Oh, yes, I did. Mr. FERRID. Thank you for your help.

I was quick to follow Lily’s thanks.

In response, Ferrido waves his hand as if it’s nothing to worry about.

“Never mind. I’ve caused you guys a lot of trouble in the past. I’m not trying to apologize for that, but if you’re having trouble, I’m here to help.

Hmm . How much more invigorating and heroic style is this?

Just as I was thinking that, Jack appeared from behind the woods.

Hey, there’s Ferride. It’s been a while. Well, I guess I’m in your debt, now that I’ve seen the light.

Jack approaches Felid with a nihilistic smile.

FERRID also smiles at Jack, turning to his close friend, “I don’t owe you much.

“It’s not so much a debt as a favor. It’s more of a return of what I owe you. I’m glad to see you’re as healthy as ever.

Yeah, we were enemies in the past, but I never thought I’d see the day when I’d be standing shoulder to shoulder with you. The gods of fate have a way with you.

Then he and FERRID shake hands passionately, Jack.

Yeah, you’re saying something cool, but you didn’t do much for me this time either.

As I was making such a comment, FERIDO turns to me again.

“So, Kyou-kun. It is not a coincidence that I came out of the blue to say this, but I actually came here for you.

You want me?

I was surprised to hear him say that, but I’m pretty sure he said something like that when he first appeared.

I asked him again what he wanted, and he said

In fact, I want you to grow a certain demon.

Such an unexpected request spilled from the mouth of Felid.
