Monster no Goshujin-sama

22. You can tell by looking in the eye

22.

Fortunately, when I jumped out the back door of the inn, the situation had not changed from looking down through the window.

In the street behind the inn, there are no shadows except the three: Shiran, Akiho Fujitsu and Sadias.

Originally, it was an alley that looked like a way out with few people.

You escaped after detecting signs of contention, and the children earlier are gone.

On such a quiet street, the sound of the door that I had hastily opened sounded well.

He didn't seem to notice Shirazu with blood rising on his head and Silan involved, but he heard the last one, Sadias, even at a distance.

A skinny young man dressed in a kimono, an ethnic costume in northern Akel, looked back at this one with a bare gesture to arbitrate.

As I rushed over, apparently he remembered this one as well.

Look at my face, look at Rose's face... he turned his eyes to me again.

And somehow, I open my eyes and stiff them.

I was angry at him as he was.

I don't know what you're surprised about, but Silan is still tangled up in Shenzhen.

If you're a companion, you should be responsible.

I couldn't help thinking of anything else, so I bit my back teeth and sped up my legs.

"... and you want to know that!

"So you're telling me there's a reason this one too!

Exactly, I can already hear you arguing.

"Just tell us what you've been hearing, that's all!

Apparently, Shenzu was trying to get something out of Silan.

I wonder if Silan put it aside and became a dispute because of it?

After all, this was a little surprising because I thought it was tangled up for the reason that I knew him.

I wondered what Shirazu, the metastasizer, would do to Shiraan... but whatever it was, it wasn't until he helped Shiraan first.

I breathe, trying to speak.

But just before that, Fukutsu, who had lost his temper, was moving.

"Hey, please!

A stuffed shenzhen tried to grab Silan's arm.

It was a rambling trick because of the blood rising on his head.

It seemed that Silan had tried to deal with it.

I've dealt with Tatsuya the same cheat before.

Even though he hasn't activated the Spirit's aid because it's not even in battle, his opponent hasn't really attacked him.

Besides when I'm not calm.

Whatever happened, Syran would have prepared his mind, and even though it was an euphoria, there should have been something to deal with.

... if it should be.

Silan today was not her during the whole season.

Previously, I heard from Silan that he was' sick '.

Once a level comparable to Gabella's, he said, his combat abilities fell on the same level as Rose's.

Still, it's a strong enough category in this world.

But they're bad opponents with cheats.

Getting around wasn't fast enough, and Shirazu's hand grabbed Silan's two arms abusively.

"Am I - Hmm?

Fukutsu, who tried to say something more, swallowed the words.

"What, this"

I can't see Shenzu's face from my position, but his voice was in a state of surprise.

Drop your gaze on the grabbed arm.

"Cold...?

"... Huh!?

I witnessed Silan's face become convulsive - thoughtful, yelling.

"Shenzhou - Huh!

So, they noticed this one.

Fumizu looked back, looking shocked.

In the meantime, I was taking Rose and rushing to them.

It's also a waste of time to breathe. I closed my legs and opened my mouth.

"Let go of that hand, Shenzhen"

Shenzu looked unpleasant.

"Why are you..."

"Let go."

I got a low voice.

For the first time in a long time, intense emotions were burning the back of my brain.

But reason was working for me at the edge of the line.

If I pull my sword out here, Rose will fight with me.

But it's tough when it comes to how hard it is to have cheats.

Of course, I don't mean to hesitate if it's a time of need, but now was not the time to finger the pattern of the sword.

"Let go."

When I met her before, Akira Fujitsu looked like she hated me.

However, when we first met at the inn, it was more of a less interested atmosphere.

I felt sorry for the inconvenience.

I couldn't even flatter myself for being favorable, but I didn't mean to be malicious.

It was the second time Shenzu had exposed his disgust... while Rose and I were out of town, when we encountered him.

- This guy's not a busy one either. You can take a woman like an accessory, but it's proof of that.

Fumizu was really sick and tired of looking like such a metastatic.

Of course, I don't mean to, and it's unpleasant to be misunderstood that way, but I understood the feeling of contempt for those beings.

At least, this guy has enough grudge to make such an existence unpleasant.

Even if you are abusive, you are not a priceless outlaw.

I'm not trying to harm Silan for any reason.

Then it was premature to pull the sword out here.

"Shit."

As I stared, Shirazu let go of Shiran's arm.

Shiran takes a distance from Fukutsu.

The leg snapped.

"Takahiro..."

Only one side of the blue eye was pointed this way.

It was a weak gaze.

"Are you okay, Silan?"

I ignored Shenzhen and walked over to Shiran.

"Also, I'm sorry, Takahiro. Sorry for the inconvenience..."

On Silan's face, there was a great deal of agitation.

Is it unconscious behavior that is stiff squeezing the two arms grabbed?

The fact that Silan is an undead monster is one of the biggest secrets we have.

Earlier, that was something that could be exposed.

Silan is not frightened by the very act of Shenzhen earlier.

I was afraid there would be great trouble for us.

I knew very well that I was a girl of that nature.

"It's not Silan's fault."

The unfortunate thing about this scene was that the opponent was a metastasizer with cheats.

There's nothing I can do about that.

Disaster... or man-made disaster.

However, at the same time I was fortunate that he was also a metastatic.

The transferee, Akira Fujitsu, is oblivious to this world.

Without an elf close to you, you wouldn't even have a chance to bother to know if the elf's body temperature is the same as that of a human.

Nor do you know that I have the power to lead monsters.

I seem surprised by the cold of the body I touched, and I may have wondered, but all of a sudden it won't come to the idea that Silan is an undead monster.

… and it is possible because I am in a third party position.

Shiran, who was in motion, didn't seem to have turned his head that far.

Unfortunately, I can't even explain that to you on this occasion, which has the ears of Fujitsu and the others.

... Anyway, now it's time to get out of here.

After that, all you have to do is calm Silan down.

"Let's go back, Silan"

"Yes, sir"

Silan nodded as I spoke, aware of the strong tone.

However, that foothold, which I took a step forward, was weak, not even feminine.

I found myself completely trapped in the thought of blame.

"Hey. Wait."

So, Shenzu raised an exasperating voice.

Which, I guess, was the word you threw at me.

But Silan didn't take it that way.

Her face, which had been bloody awful and bad since she became Demi Rich, had become terribly tense.

……

It was the night the captain was captured that brought me back to my brain.

-... was it good?

- If you find out who I am, you'll be bothered.

Silan's weakness that night didn't seem strange when he was long gone.

She was in the same danger right now.

"Ah."

I was half impulsive, holding Siran's shoulder fluttering.

Half the unconscious, to get her that's going to be gone.

The other half was to protect her.

Let Silan, who raised his voice low, hide in the shadow of his body.

Fortunately, as when I was training as a spiritual user, Silan's body without temperature, which I feel in my palms, did not reject me.

Rather, as much as I've leaned around my chest, I was relieved.

Now, no worries.

"What do you want?"

I turned my face to Shenzhen.

"I don't need you."

The response was sword-soaked.

There is a roaring beastly look on Shenzu's face.

But to this extent of intimidation seems frightening, I have not crossed the dead line.

"I wouldn't back off if they told me so. What I'm afraid of is, can't you see?

In fact, it's not Shenzhen that Syran is afraid of, he'll be able to figure out who he is, but he doesn't have the in-laws to go into that much detail.

"If you want to talk, get it back out"

"I don't think so."

Shenzhen did not back down.

Persistent more than expected. I frowned.

But when I heard the next word, I was struck by a slightly unexpected thought.

We have a situation here, too.

There was a sincere sound in the voice of Shenzu, whose head was chilled by the insertion of a cross spear, and whose tone fell slightly.

For the first time here, I saw Fukutsu's face properly.

"I can't leave."

Some sort of desperation was hidden in the highly insured face.

If you look at the look on his face, there's something wrong with him, so much so that he can guess.

"We need to hear from the Royal Army about the monster's crusade plan."

"The monster's...... crusade plan?

I almost looked back and saw Silan's face.

At the edge of the line, enjoy it.

Appropriate action must be taken to get through this.

The first person to get confirmation was not Silan.

"Why did you think Silan knew that?

"It's not a pussy."

When I asked, Shenzu peeled out his teeth and told him to roar.

"The woman is one of the most famous knights, like the Knights of the Alliance. I just saw this guy go into a military facility in this town. I even know there will be a massive monster crusade nearby. This woman is trying to help you with that. Then you must also be listening to the plans for the crusade. I want to hear it."

I see, is there some muscle through?

Though I thought so in my heart, I did not show it to my face, and I asked.

"So why would you want to know that?

"It's..."

Instead, Shenzu bit his lip.

"... I can't tell you. There's something I can't tell you."

"So, you think we can talk?

"I need it!

Shenzu replied to my inquiry, which seeped through her tone.

He's pretty unscrupulous, but he's not going to leave.

Confirming that, I breathed slowly.

……

The situation was well understood.

I don't know what the hell a monster's crusade plan is.

However, I've heard stories about monster sightings in neighboring villages before.

If the area started to move, I was convinced.

Because of Silan's character, if he has such a plan, he's likely heard some stories about it from Adolf, who went to see him.

When you don't have enough power, give me a hand.

But Siran didn't tell Shenzhen about the area.

Naturally.

Adolf spoke to her because she relied on a human being belonging to an allied knighthood called Silan.

I don't even know if I can trust you, you won't be able to talk to people who don't even know what you're looking at.

Not to mention that you don't say why you want to know that, so there's no way you can talk about it.

From the very beginning, it was an unscrupulous request.

The trouble is that Deep Tsunami Tiger is aware that it is an unscrupulous favor.

As much as I don't know that, this guy won't be stupid or arrogant.

It is well understood that he is being unscrupulous, and Shenzu is trying to grab Silan and talk him out of it.

Then I don't think I'll give up on being half-baked.

I don't know why that's so far... but that's not something to think about right now.

When I breathed air, I opened my mouth.

"I'm sorry, but I don't think Silan knows what you want to know."

"What...!

"Listen, we're not here to help with the crusade. Silan simply stopped by to say hello to someone he knew."

It is a fact.

It seems that in this situation, where a massive monster crusade is planned, Shiran, who is an Allied Knight, visited the town, so Shenzu thought that Shiran was involved in the plan, but that's not true.

Tomorrow, we leave town.

"... it's a lie. Trying to deceive me doesn't make sense."

"If you doubt it, why don't you follow me? I just stopped by this town on my journey. It's a pioneering village in our destination, and you can go home for sightseeing."

The speculation we were talking about earlier, Shenzu, is wrong.

At least, it's off-target where it's based.

As a matter of fact, there is no way to confirm that with Shenzhen, even if the conclusion is that "Silan is asking something about the crusade plan" is only a coincidence.

Even if you pushed her to Silan with the intention of pushing through an unscrupulous favor, there's nothing she can do if she doesn't know it.

I turned my back on my heels, confirming that Shenzhen's momentum was clearly dull.

"That's all we're talking about."

"Wait..."

"You still got something?

I look back cold at what I was about to say, Fujitsu.

"If not, I'll let you go already."

……

I take my gaze off Shirazu, who looks like he's lost his word, and I walk out with Silan's shoulder in my arms.

There is no voice.

I stroked my chest down.

The more rampant you get around town like this, the more nervous a conversation you have with someone whose head screw flies, although I don't think so, the more you get into battle, the more you have to do everything you can to escape.

But I managed to get through it.

It's all right now.

If I raised my gaze, I could see Kato and Kay looking at me through the window.

I waved gently at them, and then I spoke to Silan.

"That was a disaster, Silan. Are you okay?"

Earlier, I seemed a lot shocked.

I'm sure you're depressed.

We have to move to a place where we can feel safe and calm down, but we should follow up as much as we can before we do that.

I thought so and peered into Silan's face at a close distance - there, I saw something unexpected.

"... Ah, huh?

A good look at me was paying me back.

Most of this was like an accidental hit.

"Huh?"

The girl's face, usually tightened by rigour itself, was swinging like a fever.

However, there was no redness on its face and, as a result, a unique luscious atmosphere had been created.

I feel my soul tangled up in that eye, and I feel unwittingly stiff.

Sensation of paralysis of the cerebromedulla.

However, even thoughts that don't work very well, I realized that this was a sight I had seen somewhere.

But before I could remember where it was, a loud voice slapped my ear.

"Wait!

He sounded out of tune somewhere.

Silan's face, which was blurred, returns to normal, and I feel like I've been slapped in the consciousness, too.

Reflectively, I looked back.

The Lord of the Voice was not Shenzu, who gave up badly......

"Wait."

Until just now, Sadias, who had no reaction whatsoever, was looking at me with strange, feverish eyes.

"That can't be right. Impossible. But I still think so..."

"... sadias?

Seeing Sadias crumble and something, Fukutsu gave a bewildered voice.

This, it seems, was an action that he, the companion, did not anticipate either.

Sadias looked terribly serious and walked over here.

Something distracted and somewhat unbearable about my footsteps is somewhat different, and I get barometric pressure.

"Oh, you, what...?

"What if, what if..."

Sadias reaches out to me as I can't even see this upset.

My response to the unreadable behavior of intent was delayed.

"... what are you?

Reached.

Shortly before that, there was an interruption between me and Sadias.

"... Huh!?

"Let's get you there."

It was a black axe.

It's a half-moon, thick, sturdy, martial bone blade.

The great blade of a long-pattern axe called Valdish was intimidating Sadias with a swordswallowing glow.

"If anything else seems to happen to your husband, I can't help but respond accordingly."

Rose, the axe handler, said in a vocal manner to Sadias, who had just pulled his hand in.

If you behave suspiciously at all, an axe gripped with both hands would slash Sadias relentlessly into a horizontal scab. It was a real voice.

"... right. Sorry."

Sadias, who told him to groan, lagged behind one or two steps.

"Ming Hu, don't move either. It's my fault now."

Sadias turned to me, speaking to Shenzhen, who was a little murderous.

Apparently, he returned it to me.

Though the expression remained serious.

"I won't be any closer, so I want you to ask me a question. You... what did you say your name was? Oh, you don't have to name it. It's called Ming Tiger, because I know you're on guard."

"... What's a question?

I asked. Naturally, there is no way to de-alert.

Thadias then put his hand on the chest of a loose costume that he had put away just by his belt.

When he dropped his hips and appealed to Rose, who was vigilant, to stick out his other hand and be free of hostility, Sadias slowly pulled out the hand he put in his chest so as not to irritate this one.

Open the hand that was closed.

On its palm was a treasure ball with a faint white light inside.

"... eh"

As soon as I saw the stone, it hurt without the back of my right eye.

For a moment, I thought it was some kind of attack.

But the Roses show no particular reaction.

Neither do I. The pain in the back of my eyes disappears quickly, and nothing more happens.

Sadias never took one of the offensive actions that went on, he just opened his mouth.

"This is a treasure passed down to my clan. It was given to me by a certain person, and it is also a magical tool of the highest class."

The tone of speech was mild.

The serious gaze looked into my eyes.

Only my right eye was staring at me.

Just saying you can tell by looking in those eyes.

Sadias told.

"Do you know a monster called" Misty Vault "?

……

I think it was close to a miracle at this time that I didn't react in any way.

"Misty Inn" as an anecdote is well known.

But Sadias said a 'monster' called 'Misty Vault'.

Only a limited number of people should know that she is a monster.

Not to mention, he asked me that as a contractor for The Misty Vault.

This couldn't have kept me from getting upset.

In advance, if you hadn't decided your mind so that you could say anything, you would have appeared in your complexion.

I just don't know if Rose and Silan could have stayed unresponsive.

I couldn't afford to be so careful just because I swallowed up the agitation.

"... what, is that"

Hardly, I was able to respond without agitation.

I was also anxious that it might have been slightly flat.

It's not the same as Silan's case earlier.

If this Sadiaz knew about the existence of a monster called "The Misty Inn" and by any means attached to my relationship with her, I could be cornered in a very bad position.

"Right. You've heard strange things."

So when Sadias said this, I was a little relieved.

"Are you going to deceive me?"

Tensions rose again, without putting between them, in the words that went on.

I rang my thirsty throat sometime.

"I can't believe I misled..."

"No. Wait."

Sadias controlled me by raising my hand the opposite of having a treasure ball.

"It's my fault now, too. I need you to reveal the inconvenient facts. It's only natural this one has to open his chest collar first."

……

Sadias' words were mysterious.

But he figured out what he was saying to Shenzu.
