The Evil Organization's Recruitment Ad

The day after he gave instructions to his men, the Ning were accompanied by Tsurugi and walking on the beach at night. This is the scene where Santana attacked a marathon runner in training a few days ago.

"... you don't have one child"

"That would be so. It's off-limits, and you're in great danger of getting hit by Santa Ana in the first place. There's no reason for ordinary people to come all the way to places like this."

Beach at night, alone with a man in his 30s under a star full of waves. In a slightly different situation, the Nings had decided not to care. Anyway, nobody's watching.

"You haven't even gotten that much from field verification. There's no sign of Santa Vana showing up. Time to go home."

"Right. The new name also seems to have found something. Let's hear it for once."

It was then that they turned their backs on the waves and tried to leave the beach.

The wave sounds that had been heard in a gentle rhythm until earlier changed. It was an odd sound, like bashing and loud noises, and something dragging cheats.

"! Boss! Be vigilant!"

"... oh"

Look back instantly and do your gaze when waves strike. Then.

There he is.

Obviously, there's something different about it.

Probably emerged from the sea. My whole body is wet.

"... cuckoo, cuckoo..."

It was an odd voice. No, it's not just the voice.

The muscular body is covered and glowing blue like a urchin, and the legs and thought areas have fins that the diver wears. My mouth is moving with puffiness, but I haven't uttered any meaningful words. Is it about two meters long?

Semi-fishermen.

It was also written in a report that I read in advance, but there would be no better word to describe them, that is, Santa Ana.

It was creepy. He raises the voice of 'cuckoo, cuckoo' and one after the other he represents himself more than in the sea. The total number is 6. One blue one with a large size and slightly deeper body color, and the other five look the same. Leadership, do you mean? One special body is also like a bracelet.

"... Cuckoo... Cuckoo... Tsuyoi... Tamashii..., Tamashii... Ubau..."

"!... these guys... take the word... 'take'? Isn't that 'eating'...?

"... Yokose, Ramon... Kul... Maeni"

One word, but he was speaking words that made sense. This wasn't in the advance information.

"... Do you want to? Boss."

Tsurugi put his hand on the Japanese knife pattern he had in his hand and asked.

"Wait, Tsurgi.... uh... hmmm!

Ning coughed and continued.

"Uh... you're all from Santa Ana, right?

"... cuckoo... cuckoo..."

"I'm Nate."

"Boss!?

Tsurgi gives a voice that looks unexpected. but it's normal for Ning people. If you are an unintelligent creature that preys on the human soul without question, fighting or fleeing will be inevitable. But things have changed. Santa Vana talked.

"... cuckoo..."

"I need to talk to you all"

"... Hannah, shi...?

I think I hear you. He seemed to be very alert to his opponents, who neither fled nor challenged him to fight.

"What is your purpose? Don't you eat souls?

"... Kuko... Tamasi, Atsumel... Shiro, Tsukrinaos..."

Apparently, they're collecting human souls with some intent.

Gather your souls and 'rebuild' the castle? What's this all about?

"Will you tell me more? Maybe we can work together..."

"Kukooooooooo!!

The Ning could not continue their words. Because the whole of Santa Ana, a leader, has ignored the words of the Ning people, yelled at them so loud that they want to block their ears, and attacked us.

"Shit!"

Exactly fast. The sand at the point you stepped in splashes like an explosion, flying like a swim in the sky. A fast blow by an arm covered in urchins that seems to be hardening. For some reason, this attack was directed at the Ning, not Tsurgi, even though it was aimed at the strong as a priority.

It is not something very Ning people can accept.

"Tsurgi!!

"I understand!!!

Tsurgi reacts quickly to the Ning people's words, quickly pulls out a knife and breaks it into Santa Ana's offensive line.

Kickin!! I don't think very creatures clashed with each other. A fierce shock noise rings. The sand around Tsurgi and Santana rose violently.

"... the half-fish flair... won't let my lord serve me...!

Tsurgi and Santana were banging their arms and swords in front of the Ning people, playing the knife together.

"Thanks. I'm sorry, Tsurugi."

"No... but... not like this... boss, I'll stop here. You run away..."

I also found out what Tsurugi wanted to say to the Ning people. Six opponents, very unlikely to win in battle. I get hit like this. but the Ning were aware that there were

"... that sounds like a bad guy too, but you might not have to run away"

"Become?"

Ning people point slightly away from the sandy beach, in the direction of the tetrapot.

There was one person there. I don't know his face very well, but he seemed like a young man. From the silhouette, I had a t-shirt in my half pants, a lot of rough outfits, but obviously there was a different part to the regular person.

"... boss, is he...? No way...?"

The man's right fist was on fire. It's not a metaphor. As the saying goes, there was a flame in my fist.

And the left fist is different again. A current that could not have existed in the air was swirling around the man's left fist.

"Kuko!? Cuckoo!! Ramon! Ramon!! Kukor!!

Santa Ana and the others seemed to be wolfing too.

"... That was close. Brothers, I'll take care of the rest!

The man raised his prestigious voice and went on even further.

"Sun, sea, give me strength...!! Halyah!!

The man, with a growl, crosses his left fist wrapped in a burning right fist and water stream like a karate mould.

Columns of light appear on the sandy beach at night, and in that light the man changes his appearance.

Ning people are fascinated by the brilliance for a moment.

Right, you weren't haunted or tickled.

Supernatural power, I don't understand when I'm a villain, but does the divine power give rise to heroes?

The beetle seemed like some kind of a jerk, but he's got some kind of prestige, you know, manly feel. That's cool too.

"Let's go! Santa Vana! I won't let you like them!!

The power of the Spirit of the Sun and the Sea, Ramone, guardian hero of the southern islands, manifested himself with the dazzling light.
