Chapter 72 (1/2)

Here’s the second

The Preceding Hero and the Arena 2

「Daaaahh!?」

Magnificent There's probably no mistake that that simple ould be leaked out to describe that evasion just now

Though I didn't do anything but bend back into the shape of a shri to it

Iunshot of Maryoku that flew by horizontally, I slid on the ground as if I were in an anime, with a Zusa~

「daof tha……!」

When I turnedup, I saw the three or four unshot as well as the figure of the fox-eared jerk that slipped through the gunshot and was drawing closer to Bernadette That Bernadette, because that guy was at my back……

「Bernade──っ!?」

As I was partially looking over at Bernadette, a shadow stretched over me

Zugan!

「Hou, you dodged that well, shi+tty brat」

The swung doord se that was made out of stone

Dodging that attack by a hair's breadth, I looked at the owner of that sword that ung and I clicked ue

「Why you……『The Killing Thief』 Doumel! To think that someone like you would participate」

「Sauard!」

That large builtdown at me with a lot of force

I dodged that with a paper-thin distance

「You're probably just participating so that you could legally kill people or so, aren't you!?」

「Correct! I'll kill you as your prize!!」

This man's name is Doumel

We o When we reached a certain tohile I was acting separately froroup of thieves that attacked us while ere being baggage guards

「I'll return the debt that I owe you froot it?」

「Wasn't that just you reaping what you sowed!!」

Although I was naturally able to easily repel the thieves, only this guy was strong enough to be in a different league, and since I was fighting while protecting Olivia and the others, it was a close fight

……But, right now, I don't have anything to protect

「Rapid!」

「ッ!!??」

Theway, I dove into Doumel's chest and drove my fist into the pit of his stomach

Maybe because I did it with quite a bit of strength, Doumel fainted with just one attack

「I'll take your sword!」

Robbing the sword that was on Dou

It would be a bother if he got back up after all With this, he'll be treated as disqualified

「Now then……」

I was about to head over to Bernadette's side, but, hearing the sound of so about from the left, I reflexively crouched down

Vwon!

An iron ball flew right over hters that couldn't dodge the iron ball that was connected to a chain were all bloay together

「Guhihihihi! You did well to dodge ster of the Hero troupe!」

「『The De!?」

Lugoro was a guy that used an iron ball attached with spikes that really suited guys with really round builds, and he was also another crook that attacked us in the middle of our journey

「Guhihi I'll turn you into sloppy minced meat――ッ!?」

「!?」

Just now, Lugoro was right about to fire off the iron ball However, fresh blood spouted up froe sound, he collapsed

Gasha, gasha

What appeared at his back was aarmor that ith blood

「……It hath been a while……Black-haired boy」

A knight with the characteristics of having a subdued and hard to understand way of speaking and having a preference of fighting in a way that opposed the chivalrous spirit,

「『The Fiendish Knight Labangs』!? What the hell, is this round a huge gathering of villains!?」

「En, garde!」

Labangs drew near while swinging his blood smeared sword atblood into my eyes

「Like always, you're using such underhanded tactics……ッ」

Catching the blood with s, Labangs took out a s from the other side of the shi+eld attached to his arm, and threw the contents of it at me

「Wha!? daot in my eyes!」
