Chapter 129: Please sleep peacefully. (1/2)

Chapter of the week: 2/2 Translator: Reizenchuu Editor: Kenny Stryker

For now, Rouga, go distract him for a while. I need some time. Okay!

After replying to me briefly, Rouga jumped off Oukas back and charged at Souki who was waiting for the best timing to thrust out his fist. With a splendid move, Rouga dodged that fist.

Mr. Ogre, this way please. … GeT AwaY.

She provoked him with words that Ive already heard somewhere. She is gradually getting influenced by her owner. As she was making use of her small body in her tactics, she continued to trifle with him. Although Souki doesnt understand what she was saying, he was clearly irritated by her super fast speed. Well, mobility and speed are her inherent skills. Its very unlikely for her to get caught by that giant lump of hatred.

I entrusted the plan of distracting Souki to Rouga, and asked Ouka to let me down after getting far enough from them. Apparently, my arm is still too heavy. Even though I understood that its just a mind trick, it still feels heavy. This carved seal in my hand is due to my foolishness, so I need to bear with it now.

What are you intending to do now, Yato-sama?

Ouka asked me while being in her original fox form. The answer to her question was already decided.

We will take him down with one hit.

Its impossible for me to battle him for a long time with this arm, anyway. If I only fought him seriously from the start, nothing like this would have happened. Perhaps I got a little too ahead of myself this time. I will make sure to take him down with a single blow now.

I-Is that even possible? Of course, it is possible.

After hearing the words one hit, she asked with a bewildered voice tone. I replied to her immediately then crouched down and placed my heavy arm on the ground.

Alright, lets do this.

Everything is prepared now, all that is left is to make the move. When I was about to call for Rouga to get away from Souki, we got interrupted by a totally unpredictable interference.

—— DO NOT GET IN THE WAY. ——

!? Kyaa!

We got assaulted by a third party. All of a sudden, I received a shock to my back and lost track on the magic spell I was preparing. The voice that reached my ears right before the shock was unfamiliar. Someone else is present here. Even Ouka got involved in the attack. I turned to confirm what happened and noticed a stone gouged on the surface of the ground.

Ah? Did someone just shoot us with this stone ?

I frowned while fixing my gaze on the stone that wasnt there until now. I activated myPresence Detectionskill but couldnt detect anyone nearby. This means that we were sniped by stone by someone from an incredibly long distance. I assume that its the same person who transmitted that ominous voice to my mind. In other words, someone is observing us from another place. Due to the noise resulting from the crash, Souki had noticed our location.

HuMAn DiE!

He then ignored Rouga and came rushing towards me with his full speed and power, but Rouga stopped him on the way.

Im not done playing with you.

She shouted and bit him with her sharp fangs, but as his skin was so hard, she couldnt chew it off and got readily brushed off by him.

So hard. StOP HiNdrANce.

He probably got really fed up with Rouga moving around and changed his target from me to her again. It looks like I still have time to start preparing again.

C-Could this be

Ouka who took a closer look at the stone thrown at us looked somehow agitated. I wanted to ask her if she knew anything, but I didnt have time to do that. I perceived another stone flying directly at us. This time it wasnt only one, but a few dozens. They were all covered by some dark matter. Surely, nothing good will come out of getting shot with them.

Yato-sama, I will do something about the stones.

Ouka stepped forward, preparing to counter attack the flying stones. I used myPresence Detectionto examine them and realized that they have been shot consecutively. If I were to deal with them instead, I will never have time to prepare the magic.

I entrusted my back to Ouka and returned to concentrate on the spell I was preparing. Ouka transformed back to her human form and diagonally thrust her arms which eventually started sparkling with lightning. The lightning then left her arms and created a round wall surrounding the both of us. For a second I wondered if a wall can be made out of electricity, but soon focused back on my task. Everything is finally prepared now.

Rouga!! Get away from him now!! Okay!

Before she ran away from him, she kicked Soukis eyes with her forefeet. Souki reflexively placed his hands on his eyes as he screamed and slightly bent down his knees. That was a heartless move from her. I felt a little sorry for Souki who got his eyes carefreely crushed by Rouga, but I didnt let that chance slip by.

Its about time for you to return to nothingness, lump of hatred — Heaven Load.

Following my chant, two magic circles appeared. One of them near me and the second under Soukis feet. It took him a while to calm down and open his eyes again to realize what was happening under him. He instinctively guessed the danger that was about to assault him and tried to escape, however, it was already late.

Four tiny magic circles appeared above his head and iron chains violently sprout out of them, binding Soukis limbs and restraining him. He tried to break free out of them using all his power but the chains didnt even move the slightest. Once he got caught by them, the game was already over. The chains then abruptly lifted him all at once. His arms got stretched in different directions and his legs got bound straightforwardly. He looked as he was getting crucified.

I wont show any sympathy to you for your past, but at the very least, I will let you pass without suffering. The magic circle under Soukis feet started shining. The light in the circle increased in its radiance gradually as if it were pumping out its energy. That growing brightness had most likely reflected as a death countdown in his eyes since he desperately tried to tear away the chains.
