While running, I turned around and spread the Dimension backwards, but I couldn't see the Lord. It seems that it is not heading straight towards me, but rather towards another location. It may be that they simply don't have any magic to search for the enemy, but I thought it was a disturbing move.
However, we can't just devote the Dimension to the Lord all the time. First of all, we have to meet up with Ryner and Reynand-san. In order to find them, I spread the Dimension over a wide, thin area.
''This, this is .......
I couldn't hide my agitation at the changed world, and I couldn't hide my voice as I drove through the streets of Vieissia.
Many of the plants and trees that adorned the city have turned to cinders, and even the few remaining natural features are on the verge of dying and becoming discolored. Many houses that should have been intact yesterday have collapsed and are now abandoned.
Most importantly, the area is strangely unpopular. The weather may be a factor, but more than that, it's probably not a situation where you can casually walk out.
I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this, but I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this as well.
I'm not going to be able to get a good idea of what I'm going to be doing.
”First of all, we're going to meet up with Ryner and his friends ...... No, do we need some more food to escape through the labyrinth ......? You'd better get ready to get out of 'here' first--
Hey, man, don't move! Wait!
But before I have time to think, the next problem arises.
As I run, flicking through the rain, I am met by a group of people with heavy equipment. It seems that I was thinking too much about what's to come and didn't pay enough attention to the approaching enemy.
There were five beastly men protecting themselves with caged hands and armor, and carrying swords on their arms.
It's an outfit I hadn't seen in a long time. They look a bit like the explorers on the ground. Perhaps it was an interference prepared by the Lord until they shifted the timeline.
I'm not going to be able to get a good idea of what I'm talking about.
''Nah--!
I was surprised at how fast the enemy's body language was, and checked their status in the 'display'.
From left to right: 27th level, 24th level, 28th level, 24th level - all five of them were as high as I was. And the 'qualities' are high across the board. Although there was no one with a higher status than me, they were still not an enemy that could be ignored.
''-- Please don't lick it. We are a member of the honorable 'Knight of the King's Kingsguard'. We will not let you through so easily, even if it's against the Lord Commander.
The most high-level beastman knights will represent the five of them and declare their positions.
''Knights of the Kingsguard. And they called me the Lord Commander.
Their politeness and strength remind me of the Celestial Knights on earth. However, the Knights here are knights who live in the legendary era of a thousand years ago. There was not only a simple difference in strength, but also a sense of intimidation unique to those living in the midst of warfare.
''The power you gave me. I am saddened that I have to return it in this way.''
'Now you are a traitor ....... You no longer have any choice but to cross this sword ......
The beast knights scattered without caution and tried to surround me.
The flames of will to fight in their eyes are not justified. They probably think that even five of them are no match for me. But even so, they have an expression on their face that says they can't back down. It's similar to the expression on my face when I challenge my guardian (Guardian).
If they fight, they can easily end up killing each other.
To avoid this, I return my sword to its scabbard. Best of all, the odds were stacked against us. The way they spoke, they were my acquaintances.
”I'm not going to fight you,” he said. Will you listen to me first ......?
I wanted to explain that this is a space created within the maze. I wanted to tell them that they are in the palm of the hand of the guardians a thousand years later.
But that is not going to happen.
'...... It can't be done. There is power in your words. And we don't have the power to judge their authenticity. Hence, we cannot listen to you. Even if I wanted to, I couldn't listen to ....... We'll just do our job. Now, the traitor, the Commander of the Kingsguard, is condemned!
With those last words, the lead wolf beast knight rushed out.
Following that, other beast knights attacked from the left, right, and even from the rear.
I had no choice but to draw my sword and intercept them.
Almost at the same time, five blades are coming at me as if to block my escape. It's a flash of a sword that you can tell in an instant that you've had good joint training. In fact, I was only able to use the 'Straight Sword of Crescent Pectrazi' to pop it.
A five-on-one sword fight in a stormy city beats a unique rhythmic music.
And as they crossed swords, they also knew that it was they who taught this beastly knight the sword. To the extent that one could be sure of that, their battle methods were reasonable and in line with modern values.
First of all, they were very thorough in attacking only simultaneously with the many against the few.
They never jumped in alone, and what was more important than their pride as warriors was victory. The way he tries to pull off the victory is a method of warfare that he likes to use in his ”Cornered Me”.
He can only defend against the waves of attacks backed by this theory, and he doesn't know how to attack.
As they weave through the storm of swords and avoid them, they think about many things.
Their tactics are powerful, but their individual prowess is also powerful.
At the same time, I wonder.
Was there a fierce man up to this point in Vieisia until yesterday ...... and.
No, they shouldn't have been there.
I'm confident in my memory and my ability to grasp the 《Dimension》.
Without a doubt, they're new faces I've never seen before.
Then where do you say they were?
Naturally, I naturally focus on observation and 'gazing'. The grasping ability of the 《Dimension》, which became even stronger with the increase in level, brought one piece of information to my mind.
It was the luminescent color of magic power.
I've seen this glow of magic power - no, I've seen the light of this magic stone (Tamashii).
I'm sure it was in the dark sky of Viaisia.
The light of the magic stone that shone faintly there and the light of their magic power is exactly the same.
After comparing it with my own memories, I'm sure of it.
Until yesterday, they had become magical stones and were floating in the sky. It was no wonder, since the peaceful world didn't need sword-bearded knights.
But now, once again, they were called back to this world because the time line had shifted.
The Lord, Nosfi, had chosen to do so.
Recapture the warfare filled with despair and suspicion. For those reasons--.
The magical Dimension Graduation!
The moment they understood that, they were consuming a large amount of MP and chanting magic.
I can't take the time to do it for them.
He released his magic and let his sword torrent with all his might.
The blue phosphorescence of the 'Crescent Pectrazi's Straight Sword' turned into a thin line and struck off the five swords. It then slashed the arms and legs of the beast knights, rendering them unable to fight. With the forceful push of the status difference due to the auxiliary magic, the battle was over in an instant.
''Ugh, ugh--!
I ask the beast knights who have fallen with a groan.
''Please tell us. Do you know where Reynand-san and Ryner are right now ......?
If we don't leave, they won't be done.
I tried to gather information to join them, but what I got back was a completely different answer. It was a face of despair distorted with grief.
'Commander-dono ......, no, Kanami-sama ....... Nah, why, is ....... Why did you betray us ......?
And then words of denunciation were thrown at him.
I didn't remember it at all, but I still couldn't ignore it.
'We believed in you. We thought you were the second 'savior' of the world, that's what you were ....... So why did you ......
'Though you were a knight of the South, you were kind to us mages ....... You had a heart so close to us that you didn't feel even the slightest sense of discrimination: ......
'Every word you have said to us has been a lie! In truth, deep down, you abhorred our demons, Kanami-sama: ......!
To them, Mr. Reynand and Reiner must be out of their minds.
But they only accuse me of betrayal.
'Yeah, that's .......'
I have no memory of those days. And yet, their despair overwhelmed me, and my voice trembled.
Naturally, there was no way they could answer a single word.
'Please give us back our 'Total King (Lord)' ....... That man was our hope ......, our necessary guide (light) to live .......
