Cursed Sword Master

The returning cherry blossoms report details as we travel, so we're on the night lane again. Me and Sistina are anxious underfoot while talking, so Hotaru and Sakura are driving at low speeds with me and Sistina pulling their hands.

"When you do, you mean the main unit of the Bandits isn't already in the village?

"Yeah, maybe twenty at most if it feels like cherry blossoms scouted"

"Still, it's a pretty big bandit group."

It seems unlikely that a band of bandits will be formed that originally exceeds three digits. Because it's not possible for one band of bandits to make enough money to satisfy all that subordination first.

It would be as big as 10 to 20 people at most as attacking a merchant squad right through the street. If we continue to uproot all the merchant troops passing through that street, we can expand it more, but if we do that, they hire strong escorts, or crusaders are dispatched from nearby cities, and the very survival of the regiment is at stake.

Then how can this bandit group have more than three digits of personnel...

"How are the villagers?

"... uh-huh. I don't really want to say it."

The cherry blossom discomfort conveyed in "Empathy" made it possible to imagine in general. But the situation in the village is to a certain extent predicted. If you think about rescue, you'll have to listen.

"Say it because I don't mind."

"Yeah... first of all, I think you can think of the women as being mausoleum with almost no exception"

"Hey, wait a minute! Are there no exceptions and children and old people!

Cherry blossoms nod as they run to Sistina's screaming inquiry.

"Hmm, if more than a hundred bandits had attacked me, my hobbies would have varied among them. Some of them are childhood hobbyists, while others say they don't care if they're older. On a village scale, the number of women will definitely not be enough for the number of bandits, so neither will the hungry beasts choose. That's what I'm talking about."

"Yeah... the remaining twenty are generally bullying young women in their current progression. The bodies of little children and old women were dumped beside them. Maybe he killed a villager out of control with the personnel he left behind when the squad left."

"What a terrible thing..."

Sistina's voice trembles in anger.

"And then the men..."

"A body was left on the outskirts of the village. I don't know if there's survival, but I think it's hard. If I can manage to help, I guess it's just the women who are being kept alive right now.

Perhaps every woman's people will be killed when they leave the village, so if you're going to help them, it's only tonight, Master Soo. "

Twenty or... no one will stand up for garbage like we are staying and satisfying our own desires. Poke a surprise and grab a pace and you'll figure it out...?

"Your husband. Killing evil is the new composer bearing the flag of sincerity, isn't it?

Sistina looks closely at her knowledge of the planet. I do feel that was the way a new group of slaughterers did. Well, I'm not going to make it such a rough party as they call it a slaughter group.

"It's okay, Sistina. I can't tolerate all that garbage over there either. But I'm not going into darkness, so I was just trying to figure out how to attack."

"Yes!"

"Cherry blossoms, are all bandits in the same place?

"Yeah, about half of them are burning nearby houses in the square instead of burning, making noise, but the other half or so are bringing women inside private houses"

"Really... what about the placement of the village building?

"I wonder if there's a square in the middle and the house is built to somehow surround it. I think it's more or less inside because there was a larger building on the south side of the square that looked like the village chief's house. What about the house next door? The house on the north side is burned."

I see, then...

I'll tell everyone what I think of the operation. It's all a good place to come up with an aesthetic idea on the desk. If Hotaru and the others don't sign the GO, you can think about it again.

"Fine. It may be a little too cautious, but it's not a bad idea given the possibility that the women will be held hostage."

"I think I'm good too. That's your husband."

"Only one person is going to be burdened with cherry blossoms, but I guess it's okay."

"No problem, Master Saw. This is Shinobi's job."

"Aoi is good, too."

"Unfortunately, all I can do now is ask the Lord to use it to the fullest. I promise you there will never be anything but the Lord's unconsciousness because of his weapon. '

"Yeah, it's enough. Thanks, Aoi."

I see the village of Coroni, which has grown in my sight when I tap on the pattern of pompons and sunflowers.

"All right, as soon as we arrive, we'll start the operation."

"Oh! What the hell! This village was rewarded by the" Red Meteor "SWAT Captain Dozzle! Everything on this village property is mine."

A bald-headed man shakes up the Battleax as he grabs a full force of naked woman breasts held by his sides. Apparently, this is the head of the remnants of the party in this village.

Then the men who responded to the voice now gather around the dozzle as they dragged the women they were surrounding. I guess it's aiming that it might be worth it as a hostage not to let the women of the village go for a single time, which is only luggage to fight. After all, that kind of cunning is standard with trash like robbery, murder, group bandits?

"Which means you three (...) are already mine! But if you want to honestly give me the top two balls behind you, you can just miss them.

You can keep running back and tremble in the futon, or you can run all the way to the city and cry to your lord!

These guys are 'red meteors', and the fact that they're not afraid to divulge information to their lords still means these guys are going to get rid of this place tomorrow, too?

I'd just like to draw more information from this idiot if possible... well good. I can do as much of that later. Now I'm even uncomfortable that these guys are breathing already.

It's already cold out in my head. These guys have no hesitation whatsoever in cutting and disposing of garbage.

"Don't open your mouth any more, garbage. The rotten smell leaks and my nose bends."

"... ah! What do you mean?

There's some kind of red coarse waste named Dozzle among the garbage, but honestly, I don't care. I can't help but want to dispose of all that garbage as soon as possible, even a second ago.

All I see is the fear, thoughtlessness and painful eyes of the villagers who were thrown out around me begging them to kill them quickly.

Rough waste seems to be prolonging some common threat complaints, but it only sounds like a murmur in some sort of raunchy language that I don't even need to take away and introduce.

Come on... come on, come on! Hurry up!

That's all I was repeating in my head. A little flame lit up in the corner of my sight.

"Fluorescent"

"In five seconds."

I start counting down what seems like an infinite meditation on my eyes.

Five.

Four.

Three.

Two.

One.

……

"0!"

I open my eyes and at the same time I pull out one sword at a time, and I run out all at once. The bandits in front of me are holding their eyes back with dirty screams.

"Sistina, don't just kill him. I want information."

"Yes."

I suppress my eyes with one hand when I give the last instruction to Sistina, who was running next door, naturally, and still chop off the wrist with a sunflower that was grabbing the hair of one of the bandits who was still grabbing the woman's hair in the village.

"Bye!

"Shut up."

And the next moment, I snap my neck with a flash slash. I may have said I should have snapped my neck from the start, but that's just my worry.

Throw away the bandit with his neck and head straight to the next bandit. He chops off the next bandit's arm with a flash slash, and then he snaps his neck with sunflower and head to the next.

Hotaru is going to be mad at me later for a lot of extra movement, but it's lukewarm to let them die instantly considering what these guys have done. At least you should be greeted in severe pain at about the moment of death.

The guy who was sloppily exposing his lower body slashes off the ichimotsu, then slashes his arm and drops his neck. The sunflower is going to piss me off later, but I'll give you a break by taking care of it carefully.

By this time on the boulder, a bandit with restored vision begins to emerge, but the time is already slow. Me, Sistina, and Mr. Hotaru stopped about three people who had recovered their eyesight at about the same time, and the battle in the square was almost over.

After all, my measures are not so much measures as measures.

Earlier, I asked Cherry Blossom to assassinate not one of the bandits in the building, and after ensuring the safety of the villagers, they just used Mr. Hotaru's light magic from behind me with a maximum light intensity and a duration of 0. Finally, I just had a comic book sun o be used in real life.

And they took control of the bandits once and for all. There were about ten opponents, so even a few seconds of respite was enough for the three of us. It was an operation that I thought I could manage even if they pushed the hostages forward poorly, but I'm glad it worked.

"Tired, Master Saw"

"Cherry blossoms too."

At some point I speak the words of labor as I stroke the head of the cherry blossom that was next door. Undoubtedly the best person working on this emergency request is Cherry Blossom.

"Cherry blossoms, gather the people who survived in the village with Sistina in one place for treatment."

"Okay. There was a rally point on the west side, so I'll lead everyone there."

"Sistina sends her regards, too. Come back as soon as you don't have enough people to need recovery."

"Okay."

Cherry blossoms go to guide the people in the building they helped, and Sistina speaks to the women who were in the square and directs them to the rally point.

Hmm...

"Well done. Souzillow."

Mr. Hotaru called out to me in an unexpectedly exhaled sigh. You must have noticed that my exhaled breath was jammed with nausea.

"... yeah, I know. I mean, we did the best we could."

"Then fine. And I guess there's still something left to do."

"Right. Can you help me tie him up?

"Oh, leave it to me"

I work with Hotaru to tie up a dozzle named Coarse Waste that is bubbling in the corner of my vision. This guy had his consciousness pruned right after the start of the battle with a mighty blow to his dovetail with Sistina's demon-broken stone clash.

Interrogate this guy to get information on the Bandits. We need Sistina's help for that. I want to do something a little more for the villagers who died before then.

When I hold each body up, I lay in the center of the square, one hand on my chest. I'll remove all the dirt I can and hang the cloth the naked people brought from a nearby building. The bodies that were in the square belonged mostly to women, and the men's bodies were left quite damaged outside the village, as Cherry Blossom said.

The men must have intercepted it with a beast-averse fence surrounding the village, knowing it was useless to the bandits who had attacked it from within the bright. I quietly joined hands with the men who risked their lives to protect the village, their wives and their children. As for the body, it's pathetic because it's severely damaged and can't be easily transported, but I'll leave it to the crusaders.

Sistina finally comes out of the assembly hall while I'm doing that. The face has a dark colour of fatigue on the boulder. It's about Sistina. She must have spared no effort in restoring someone who could handle just the recovery pills.

"My lord, fourteen women in the village who were survivors have settled down once and for all. We've treated wounds and prepared a simple meal."

"Thank you, Sistina. I'm sorry I'm tired, but can you help us this time?

"Yes."

I won't regain consciousness while I'm tied up. When I led Sistina under the dozzle, I pulled out the flash slash without saying anything and slashed the thumb off the right hand of the dozzle.

"Gu! Ghaaaaaaaa! Yes! Yes! What the fuck! What happened to cancer?

"Sistina. Just stop the bleeding."

"Yes."

Follow my instructions to adjust Sistina's healing technique to stop only the bleeding of the dozzle that jumped in pain.

"What the hell?"

"Tell me all about the Red Meteor."

"Huh? Are you stupid or you! That's what I'm gonna leak to the SWAT captain... Guuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!

I took a defiant attitude. I swung down the flash slash again with no hesitation whatsoever on the dozzle, slashing off all the fingers on my right hand that remained.

"Stop the bleeding."

"Yes."

"Huh... my finger."

"Tell me all about the Red Meteor."

"So I... no, no, no, no, no, no!

Slash your right hand off your shoulder.

"Guuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!

"Stop the bleeding."

"Yes."

"Tell me all about the Red Meteor."

"Okay! All of it! I'll tell you everything! I'm gonna talk to you, so stop it!

Slash down from your right knee.

"Why then? Awwwwwwwww!

"Oh, wrong. Restore to Sistina Ankle"

"Yes."

I didn't think it would fall that fast, so I slashed it with momentum. As Sistina now uses the amplification of her demonic breaks to treat her right leg, the mould and granulation flourish from her decapitated knee, and Dozzle's leg is restored.

It seems that Sistina will be able to cure the site defect just fine, but it wasn't an exaggeration or a joke that she said she'd leave it to me if it was about site defect. That's my Sistina.

I don't even need to cure them all, so I'll just go to my ankle.

"Nah! My leg... has grown?

"You know what? If you tell me everything honestly..."

"Oh, oh! Talk! Talk!

Hmm, did it end up giving a slight hope that the lost right arm might heal as well? Well, now if you talk properly, you can restore it to your feet.

It would be inconvenient if the next crusader didn't have legs to take him. The truth is, I'd rather keep these guys alive than rot, but the area is probably a mess. Don't think the Lord who sent the Crusaders would be more than happy to have visible results.
