Chapter 16 - The Demon’s Raid (2/2)

No way&h.e.l.lip;

Father is not an athletic person. He doesn't have physical strength either. Just by hiking a bit, he became exhausted, there is no way he can hold them off.

And yet, he has a strong sense of obligation and pa.s.sion, and that kind of man went to the battlefield. Taking a weapon he is not familiar with.

It was as if he's going to the battlefield to die.

There's no other choice.

I forcibly take mother's arm that is holding Sierra, and push them into the closet. I also throw the young man who I shouldered into the closet.

Even though it's small, they should be safe in here. They just have to endure the stuffy feeling for now.

[What are you doing, Gerald!? What are you trying to do--]

[It's okay]

To mother who was crying and clinging to me, I matched my line of sight with Sierra.

She is not screaming even in situation like this, her eyes looking at me is somewhat intellectual, she looks so n.o.ble.

[Sierra. Listen. It's safe in here. Your oniichan will definitely protect you]

[Nii-tan?]

[You two, please I need your help here. I'll definitely be back].

Listening my words, the young man who I saved in the forest nodded in agreement as he saw me.

[Gerald!]

Mother is shouting. However, I need to go. There will be less casualties if I were to move.

Because I have my memory from previous life. I can understand the magic language, it's possible for me to awaken as a magician.

In a word, I have power. The power to save everyone in this village.

And more importantly, is there anyone who can silently watch their precious family get hurt?

Father said, 『As a man』, one must strike without holding back. He should be fine, right?

I am a magician, a boy, the son of my father and mother.

I close closet door forcefully&h.e.l.lip;. Now that I think about it, isn't this the place where I found the grimoire? While recalling the old memory, I close the door and turned around.

[ 『Any person excluding me is forbidden to open this door』 ]

I chant a spell to keep the door completely locked.

In addition, as precaution, I cast another magic on it.

[ 『Negate any forms of attack from outside, reinforce the door and wall of this closet and make it indestructible』 ]

&h.e.l.lip; With this, perhaps the closet won't get destroyed. Moreover, although the phrase is not smart, I think it'll be better to use detailed words in situation like this.

Mother and the others, you're gonna be safe.

I went out of the house while steeling myself.

How to fight, I haven't learned about it yet. There has yet been a chance for me to fight enemies stronger than usual.

Still, I can't run away this time. Father, only I have the power to save him and protect the people of this village.

I resolve myself, and run towards the crowd of monsters whose invading our village right now.

(TL Note: This is the teaser from Author)

Weapon from j.a.panese. That's all. But, in Another World, how strong will that weapon be? The next chapter is from Russel's point of view when the monsters attacked the village.

Father is working hard.
