16.THE CHAOTIC BATTLEFIELD

“Shh!”(シィイ!)

Without the slightest hesitation, and without doing any blunder, Willian´s sword severed the head of a black armored s.h.i.+nigami.

“Gaaaaaah!”

Putting away all carefulness he had been paying his mind to until now, he simply madly rushed ahead. He cut through all that hindered him.

“Uh, Darah!”(う、ダッラァ!)

He didn´t have the time to be going after the complete victory he had been preparing for until now. He would barely be able to run through all his enemies in high speed. Because of that, he was continuously getting more and more light wounds and was being dyed in the splashed blood of his enemies and in his own blood.

Willian advanced forward using his techniques, which were elegant and silent, ferocious, and also sometimes rough.

“You, don´t pe kidding me! …Wha?”(この、ふざけ「ひゅ」なっ! ……あへ?)

Despite all things, the power of the sword that was made in Rus.h.i.+tania was very useful for cutting heads. The movements Willian had been using before now were all ones he would be able to cut people with just a simple sword, without needing to use the might of his weapon.

But right now, he was using it to its full potential.

“That guy, is strong!”

That certain man that had no doubts about his superiority smashed Willian´s confidence and made his true [himself] come out.

“I am strong, I am excellent, I am smart I am strong I am I am I am….”

His bottom line was gradually fading away. There was a feeling that Willian and [himself] were getting driven apart.

To begin with, he didn´t have any more intentions on risking himself in this war anymore. It was meaningless after all. As long as he didn´t take the head of a general, there wouldn´t be any meaning to all this. The usual Willian would definitely not do something like this. The usual Willian, who would have been carefully taking measures the more reckless he would need to act was now…

“I am, strong you knowww.”

He broke down. Just with the appearance of the supreme commander Strakules, a man that would act like a machine had been broken down. However…

“You see, I am nee-san´s knight after all. Right, nee-sannnn.”

It was because he had been broken down, and it was because he was now exposed in his true self that he was such a dreadful existence.

“You can´t go flirt with guys more amazing than me. I will eat those kind of peoplee..”

The white beast was dyeing the battlefield in blood.

“I see.”

The scene he watched under his eyes. There was a place in the battlefield that was clearly stood out from others. The one leading the charge at that place was a white beast that could be spotted even from the distance.

“I can see how Haian had been eaten. That guy is on a different level.”

Haian was his own subordinate. He was an exceptional centurion. However, this was his limit. Compared to the white haired boy, while he looked like he was used to the times of peace, now that he released [his self], there was an extremely wide disparity. He had disordered movements and unnecessarily stood out, but even deducting points because of that, his total score was something Haian couldn´t compare to.

“His impression to the soldiers isn´t bad, I guess.”

Him being in the lead wasn´t simply that he was madly running at the front. The reason why the white haired man wouldn´t get left on his own was because there were people following his lead. Similarly to the white haired, those people had also lost their sanity. They were completely influenced by the one leading them, and now were a group of insane people that would madly fight until their death.

“Hm, I wonder what is this he had been hiding all this time.”

All the people in this battlefield were affected by hearing Strakules´ [voice]. That was without distinction between allies and enemies. That was the power of a general; the power of Strakules, the sword of the kingdom. Once the soldiers heard his voice, they would get full of energy, and the weaker ones would lose their strength. However, sometimes there would be someone that would be affected in another way other than those two.

“Whether he is just an insane person or the egg of a warrior, I will have you show it to me.”

Willian, the white haired man. What would the man´s impressions of him be.
