Vol 9 Epilogue (2/2)
enjoying his stay in j.a.pan.
Furthermore, he even became a villain along the way.
The Heavenly Reverse Halberd that Guinevere had wanted to obtain, was
a rather interesting divine artifact.
”Maybe call it... Earning some tips, not bad at all.”
Quietly muttering to himself, he tried out a little trick.
His first authority of divine speed. It not only allowed him to run as fast as
the wind, but even gave him the ability to turn into lightning and take flight.
In actual fact, there were all sorts of variations in application.
Such as leaving virtual afterimages like ninjas of legend, giving other
people divine speed apart from himself, or turning himself into lightning for
an instant to unleash electrical attacks.
Amongst these various abilities, he could also virtually erase his complete
presence, allowing him to undertake secret activities with divine speed.
As long as he unleashed divine speed fully, he became as fast as
lightning.
However, objects moving at super high speed will cause others to notice
something was amiss. It was a power not particularly suited to staying
hidden.
Using divine speed to move undetected —
If that could be done, then he could achieve the feat of being active around
wild beasts without their noticing.
Alec was able to control divine speed as easily as his own arms and legs...
Well, to do so he needed to remove all hindering burdens. Even a coat
could not be worn because any extra force exerted would cause detectable
movements. So physical tasks also had to be avoided. But what about
something on the level of delivering a piece of paper?
Alec took off his winter coat and began using divine speed in light clothing.
He then approached Kusanagi G.o.dou while he was eating and left the
note there.
Eavesdropping on their subsequent reactions and conversations about the
entire matter, Alec successfully confirmed the ident.i.ty of the man carrying
the Heavenly Reverse Halberd.
A wizard and special agent who seemed kind of unmotivated. But quite
competent indeed. On that night, Guinevere had been pursuing this man,
trying to s.n.a.t.c.h away the Heavenly Reverse Halberd.
The man had skillfully employed concealment spells, successfully shaking
the witch off his trail.
Even Alec had lost him at one point. It seemed like he was some kind of
ninja authority.
However, after Lancelot's battle with Athena and Kusanagi G.o.dou had
began, Alec found the man near the battlefield.
Faced with such a tense situation, even that man showed an opening. That
made everything that followed rather simple.
Turning into lightning, Alec silently stole his way to the man's back and
made light contact. As the man collapsed, convulsing from the electrical
shock, Alec casually retrieved the Heavenly Reverse Halberd from his suit.
At the time, the ninja showed a surprised expression as he remained
conscious.
Killing him to silence a witness... Was the type of unwise decision that Alec
did not intend to take. He simply shrugged and left.
England's black gentleman and j.a.pan's Kusanagi G.o.dou.
With that, an intriguing connection of destiny had been established
between the two.
Afterword
”Stop talking nonsense.”
This line of dialogue has occurred many times in the main story.
While writing this series, I also felt compelled to say the exact line out loud
many times. Naturally, they were all aimed at our protagonist. By the way.
”As soon as that line was said...”
Regardless, I still want to announce, despite having a guy like that as the
protagonist, this series is finally approaching double digits in the number of
volumes.
This is all thanks to everyone's support, so let me express my deepest
grat.i.tude.
So, this time the long absent G.o.ddess-sama makes another appearance.
Written as mortal enemy but read as ”friend.”
This youth's revolutionary proposition will always be a proposition met by
all protagonists. This idea was thought up a long time ago. Then in that
case, the one proposed to most likely had to be her.
No matter what, if he and she could act out this kind of ”romantic comedy”
at ”some school or living under the same roof,” the characters and plot will
need to be designed to be more distinctive. If their paths were to cross
once again, I think that would be the feeling given off.
To this date, the story has mixed into it events such as G.o.ddesses
reincarnating into witches, or dormant deities. Oh my, how will things
progress from here?
Also, there is Tokunaga Asuka-san who first appeared in the previous
volume. But actually, a little story about her part-time work was already
published on the Super Dash Bunko official website's Campione! specials.
Next volume will have our protagonist matching up against that
Englishman.
Amongst the various personalities of sporty, emotional right brain
dominant, barbaric, carnivorous, casual carelessness of the great Devil
Kings, only that one guy is so-called cultured, rational, sensitive and
civilized, herbivore.
These kinds of exotic character traits.
How will this incomprehensible combination develop? By the way, it needs
no mentioning, but of course our protagonist belongs in the first group.
His self declarations are wrong. When the time comes, let us meet again
with the next volume.
Oh by the way, my long time acquaintance, Itou Hiro, author of the
well-received ”TV^-Tv^JiE - K/£4>:&:^-Lh}£ ~ ”, has his new work
