I’ve Reincarnated And I’m OP! - Chapter 27
How strange, he always gets up earlier than everyone-???.
It’s true, could it be that he couldn’t sleep well?-???
Probably-???.
In the distance I could hear some words from the girls, from what I heard it had already dawned and I fell asleep, obviously I fell asleep because I only slept a couple of hours all night and all because of the words that Martha told me at night yesterday, after listening for a few seconds to the talk of the girls I decided to get up, I just said good morning to the girls and left the room to do my morning routine, after my routine I went to the kitchen where Martha was preparing breakfast.
Didn’t you sleep well last night? -Martha.
I was preparing some things for the trip and I stayed up for a long time-Kasumi.
Hmm, I thought you were thinking about what I told you last night-Martha.
(Did he look through me or was it her “mother instinct”?).
I ignored Martha words and began to help her prepare breakfast for everyone in the house, after just a few minutes we finished preparing everything, we ate as we always did and after the girls finished eating they packed everything necessary for the trip After I finished packing everything, I put away the things that the girls were carrying, currently we were outside Martha’s house where the girls were hugging with Martha and little Mily, after a couple of words and several hugs Martha got to me approached.
Take care of my daughters, I beg you-Martha.
You don’t have to worry about that-Kasumi.
That makes me happy and remember what I told you yesterday-Martha.
I already told you my answer, I just need the girls to decide-Kasumi.
I turned to see the girls who were hugging and talking to little Mily.
If they decide to be by my side, I promise that I will make them happy, but as I told you before, I already have a fiancée which I do not intend to disappoint-Kasumi.
I know, well it is normal for strong men to have several concubines, if you don’t forget about them, it’s enough for me-Martha.
That will never happen-Kasumi.
With those last words we got on the wagon which had already been waiting for us for a few minutes, the girls finished saying goodbye and we left the town, while I watched as we got away from the town I checked on my Map that both Martha and Mily were represented as blue points, with that confirmed I could relax, one of the functions of being able to differentiate the known people on the Map was that if any of them suffered an injury, I would instantly receive a notification alerting me, that way I could get to the place to avoid a tragedy.
After making sure that I had Martha and Mily added as acquaintances on the Map, I checked the Status of the girls, after killing many animals and having finished with the large group of Goblins including both kings they managed to get a lot of experience managing to reach both Shiro and Arisa to level 23 and Yui to level 24; Their stats increased a bit, but not to an overwhelming level, hinting that in order to raise the stats further they needed a much higher level.
(If they decide to be by my side, I will make them level up until they cannot, I don’t want anyone to hurt them if I’m not there to help them).
As I put my thoughts aside I crossed my arms and began to read from my Inventory, I read several books that dealt with simple magic spells, from the normal fireball to how to control the weather on a large scale, but practically alone. It was theory, there was no way to learn these spells, I just kept reading the large pile of books that I had stored.
Time passed and before I knew it the sun was setting, as I wanted to keep a low profile I restrained myself from just putting up some camping tents that I had created a long time ago, obviously the girls asked me why, why didn’t I take out the room through Telepathy I told them that I did not want to stand out and that while we were traveling with the merchant we were going to maintain a normal profile, the girls accepted what I told them and did not ask any more, the merchant slept inside the carriage next to the coachman which he got along very well with the merchant, I told the merchant that we would take turns standing guard at night, but I told the girls to sleep and just create a barrier around us.
While the girls were sleeping I kept thinking about making some armor for the girls, since they decided to use weapons it was best to have armor for extra protection, I created various designs of both light and full body armor but even making the armor I did not I was satisfied, remembering what I knew the armor always had small parts where they are weak, although I reinforced those weak points the girls had never used armor and I assumed it would be a bit uncomfortable to be putting and removing them every day, I was about to try to create some kind of futuristic armor that was armed on the body of the person only with a small accessory when an idea came to me, without thinking twice I began to work on armor in the fantasy and science fiction style.
………………………..
In the morning when the girls woke up I already had breakfast prepared, the girls did their morning needs where I created an instant bath behind some trees, I spent the whole night creating the new armors of the girls that, although they were a little simple I was putting a lot of effort and that is why I had not finished them yet, after saving everything we continued with our trip to Shoe City.
After traveling for another couple of hours a small town entered my Map, the town was quite small and was right on the side of our road, according to what the merchant said we were going to spend the night there to buy some supplies and distribute some products that he delivered whenever he passed through the town, after a couple of hours of boring travel we arrived at the town that was similar to Rao, the merchant took us to an inn where he was known to the owner, therefore they gave us a discount for staying in this one.
After knowing our room, I told the girls to go for a walk around the town, the girls accepted without thinking twice, I kept the girls’ weapons and they changed into lighter clothes, we went to visit the market which I had many striking things, we wandered from one place to another looking and buying some things, the truth was I felt quite comfortable walking with the girls, but not everything was rosy, on many occasions I felt the gazes of many people, the same gaze of contempt.
Although I tried to ignore them, it was impossible for me to pretend that they were not there, like me the girls also felt uncomfortable and even told me to return to the inn, I encouraged them with a few words and we continued, to finish touring the town we headed to a restaurant where according to the merchant they made the best food in the whole town, after just walking a few minutes we got to the restaurant that to be in such a small town looked decent, at the entrance of the place there were two doormen who when we were at about to enter they took the lead.
Sir, I’m sorry, but animals cannot enter this restaurant-Porter.
Hearing the man’s words I could hear how Yui clenched her fists, just as she was holding me back to avoid erasing the man from Esdrul; I sighed deeply and before anyone said anything else I pulled out my noble ID.
With this now if I can pass? -Kasumi.
Both men froze when looking at the identification and without saying anything they bowed awkwardly and separated, I entered the place followed by the girls, I looked at a table a little separated from all the people who were in the place and decided to sit there, while We were walking to the table by the edge of my sight I looked at one of the porters, walking quickly towards a door at the back of the room, probably the kitchen.
After just a short moment, a young waiter handed each of us a menu, the boy at the time he was serving us I noticed that he was shaking slightly and I could hear how his heart was beating rapidly, telepathically I told the girls to order anything regardless of its price or quantity, after ordering our food the young man quickly left.
After the young man left quickly inspect the place and also the people around us, the place was quite elegant as well as the people around us, after only a few minutes the young man returned with our food, I quickly analyzed the food to know if there was something wrong but everything was fine, while we ate the girls talked about what they had seen on our walk through the town, the truth was that he felt quite calm, apart from the times I went out with Dina and you see that I went out with Liz he had not experienced with anyone else going out for a walk and talking peacefully.
(No doubt going out for a moment makes me forget how cruel this world is, but this is already making me angry).
Since it had been practically the whole day, people kept looking at us with disgust, I will close my eyes, but I still kept feeling their gazes fixed on us due to my keen senses.
(I have to avoid making a mess).
While I was thinking that I felt even more looks but this time the sensation changed to another feeling, fear; While I was confused by the sudden change I felt that someone was touching my hands, I quickly opened my eyes to find the three girls who were staring at me with faces a little confused.
You’re scaring everyone-Arisa.
I looked around and without realizing it I was unconsciously releasing a bit of my aura, I relaxed returning to my normal state, I finished eating and paid for the food leaving some silver coins as a tip, we left the premises and walked right to the inn, already in the inn we prepared to sleep, I was about to turn off the lights when out of nowhere I heard a scream, I quickly checked the Map that I had minimized because I was going to sleep and in this I could see several red dots that were entering the people, I quickly reviewed the red dots which were bandits, according to their states, all of them already had pending crimes.
Girls there are bandits entering the village, as part of their training they have to stop the attack, it does not matter if they kill them-Kasumi.
I quickly handed over their weapons and clothes to change.
Hold back those at the entrance, I will go to eliminate those who are further inside the town-Kasumi.
I left the room and went to where some bandits who were on horses through the streets of the town, when leaving the inn I quickly intercepted one of the bandits who was quickly on a horse while shooting arrows with fire at houses, the man When he looked at me he shot me an arrow which I simply stepped aside avoiding it easily, the man directed the horse right in my direction trying to attack me, when the horse was already close to me I released my aura and the moment I did it the horse was He stopped and whinnied, bouncing the man from the saddle, the man when he fell close to me tried to throw another arrow at me, which he grabbed with his hand, the man, not being able to hit me with the arrow, took out a dagger and launched himself to attack me, without even putting the The slightest attention to the man I created a mana sword and stuck it in his chest, the man just stepped past me and fell motionless.
After eliminating the man I began to put out the fire before it expanded as I headed towards the other bandit who was setting fire to everything he looked at.
…………………….. ….
[Yui’s perspective].
After Kasumi left we changed our clothes quickly and left the inn, right in front of the inn there was the corpse of a man who carried a bow, if I had seen that a few days before I would have been terrified but now that we had trained and overpowered some monsters I no longer felt afraid, we just took a little look at the corpse and we kept running towards the entrance, in just a moment we got near the entrance where there was a big scandal, the scene in front of us was terrifying, without a doubt some were afraid to do something.
In front of us there were many bandits who were mercilessly murdering all the people who tried to stop them, many of the resident men of the town used swords or different weapons but none could do anything, the screams of the people could be heard loudly and the smell Fresh blood felt everywhere, I was completely frozen with fear, this was completely different from subjugating monsters, while the men fought I could see how a woman was running hugging two small babies, the woman was running desperately towards our direction, Arisa without thinking twice ran towards the woman taking me out of the trance, I followed Arisa and while I did I could see in the crowd a bandit who pointed his bow at the woman and threw an arrow at her, using all my speed I tried to reach the woman but still the arrow was much faster than me, while desperately running a shadow passed me and just when he The arrow was about to hit Shiro lunged towards the woman causing her to fall avoiding the arrow that was now going right in my direction, with great difficulty I turned to the side avoiding the arrow.
I stumbled foolishly and fell to the ground, I felt useless in the face of everything that was happening, if it weren’t for Shiro the woman could have died and the arrow almost hit me.
(Am I that useless?)
I wanted to run away, I didn’t want to fight, I felt useless, I was very afraid.
Yui, get up, we have to stop these bandits before they kill more people-Arisa.
Arisa helped me up and drew his sword in preparation for the fight.
Shiro take the woman away from here, we will stop them, Yui help me-Arisa.
(Since when is she so brave?).
I had a silly question in my head which I already knew the answer to, Arisa always protected both of us, she, regardless of the danger, always put herself in front of us.
(What am I thinking, my sister is asking me to help her and as her sister it is my duty to help her).
I slapped myself to get rid of my fear and took both swords out of her sheath, she was prepared to fight whatever she had in front of her.
(It’s time to put my new strength to the test.)
We both ran quickly towards the bandits, some of whom when looking at us ran in our direction, a man of about forty years went towards me brandishing a bastard sword, the man when he was already close he threw a vertical cut at me which I easily dodged and while the The man missed the cut, I quickly stabbed my right sword into his abdomen, the man just turned to see me as he dropped his weapon and fell motionless.
One less-Yui.

[Bandit Leader’s Perspective].
According to our informant, a merchant was going to be in the small town that we already had in our sights for a long time, the plan to destroy the town was to send five men to set fire to as many houses as possible to make a big scandal by which the inhabitants would be distracted and not find out about our raid, the plan did not go as well as we had planned but the raid was a success.
After entering the town we began to assassinate all the inhabitants, as it was only a small town, nobody cared and we were no exception, after eliminating the small number of guards the inhabitants of the town began to resist, but for our sake. many could do nothing, although many of our men were very low level.
After killing several inhabitants in the distance, we watched as two girls quickly approached, a demi-human from the wolf family and a human, I told two of my men to capture them alive to have fun with them after destroying the town , my men ran quickly towards them but to my surprise both men were killed, several of our men found it curious that the girls won and went to stop them but like the previous ones the girls moved with incredible speed and easily killed the mens.
When looking at that scene we stopped the siege of the city and we focused on the two girls in front of us, we regrouped to eliminate both girls who apparently were not weak at all, while we were preparing we watched as something quickly approached the girls and stopped by their side, what arrived was another semi-human girl from the feline family, the three girls waved their weapons and started running towards our group, the only five archers we had started shooting arrows at the girls but no matter how much they threw at them, they dodged or deflected the arrows with their weapons, without a doubt they were formidable.
In a very short period the battle broke out and as much as our men tried to stop the girls they could not, some of our men when their swords collided with hers they broke or cut them, because they destroyed even the steel weapons that we had guessed that they had equipment made of Mithril, with that type of equipment, even if they were not strong they could pierce any steel armor with just a little physical effort.
Undoubtedly the girls were strong but since we had many men they were getting tired, because of that I took advantage of the fact that they were entertained and loaded my little crossbow that I always carried with me, wait for the right moment and when the opportunity arose I shot the human girl , the arrow flew at an incredible speed and when it was about to hit the human girl the feline demi-human put her hand in which the arrow hit, although she wanted to shoot down the human the feline girl had a wounded hand and that It would benefit us, I loaded another arrow and again aimed at the girls but now there was another person, I did not care about the boy who had come from nowhere and I aimed right at the head, as the boy was healing the feline’s hand he was completely distracted and the other girls weren’t fighting anymore for some strange reason.
The arrow flew and hit the target, but the result was completely unexpected, the boy did not move at all and ignored the arrow that hit his head and broke on the spot, after finishing healing the feline the boy he started walking in our direction, I instructed my archers to shoot the boy but like my arrow they all just fell apart when they hit his body, although that sounds crazy what happened next was even more crazy, while the boy continued as he approached, glowing swords began to appear around him and before I could even give an order to my men the swords moved with such incredible speed that I could only see small golden flashes which passed through the middle of everyone, the boy from the nothing stopped and turned around, I did not understand what he was doing and before trying to say something I felt a terrible pain in my abdomen, by reflex I touched my abdomen and felt something hot, I looked at my hand and it is It was completely full of blood, I lowered my gaze and there I understood where the pain came from, my stomach was completely perforated, I did not know when, I did not know how, the only thing I knew was that what was in front of me killed more than thirty people in a blink.
