143 139 Sometimes unexpected help comes in. (1/2)

A thud and the sound of something already familiar crumbling over and over again.

The next thing you hear is the murmur of the soldiers who have been watching from afar.

With a sidelong glance at the smoke rising from their mouths, it was like a police officer watching a bomb from a distance.

There was no one there to deal with it, and the way he or she was just looking out for the citizens to avoid harm was faithful to the job.

Although my feelings are a bit mixed as I was dealing with a really bomb-like existence just a few minutes ago, their response is quite understandable.

But...

Hey!

”Hee!　Don't kill me!”?

For some reason, I was just talking to him and he overreacted.

I'm still looking at you and just talking to you, but no, really, my eyes are a little bit droopy with a little bit of post-combat languor, but I'm not trying to kill you or anything.

”Lord, what's wrong with your eyes?

”Sorry, but it's inbred. Give it up.

I don't mean that as a bad thing. It's pretty powerful, and I like it. The eyes of a fighter.

You're the first one to say that.

Probably, he is afraid of his fighting ability because he defeated the golem he is currently sitting in the chair for.

In fact, when he was tangled up in the explorer's guild, he had this lazy look on his face, but he was usually tangled up in this way.

So the eyes are probably not involved.

You can't help but reply curtly to her surprisingly favorable answer, despite Himiku's pointing it out.

I'm not going to be able to get it.

I don't mean to hide my embarrassment, but my original purpose was to get the materials for the marriage.

Although I got into trouble and fought, and got sidetracked with fallen angels like this, my original purpose is different.

I was about to give up on cloth and gems at this point, but I realized that I could get a guardian stone, a stone to pray for the safety of my family.

Was the meaning of the magic stone of the golem an ironclad rule?

What are you talking about?

”At least it's not about the food,

”I'm not that obsessed with eating,

”What's sweet?

Separate stomach.

”That line is enough.

Mmm.

The iron rule is a word that means unchanging law, which seems strict and formal, but in reverse, it can also be a form of showing your will to protect your family.

It's not a bad idea, or rather, I think it's a good idea.

Whether or not to use it may be something to discuss with Suela and the others, but it's not a bad idea to take it home as a candidate.

We're going to have to wait here for a while anyway, until someone arrives.

It wouldn't hurt to see the magic stone to pass the time.

While chatting with Himikku who's following you, you put your hand on the armor near your left chest, where you felt the source of your magic power just now.

I'm not sure if it's safe or not, but it's free if you just want to see it.

I slipped my fingers into the slit where I'd cut myself, and put my strength into it.

The muscles are raised and the magically strengthened body slowly but steadily bends its armor and exposes its contents to the outside air.

”It's surprisingly high-tech, isn't it, a golem?

Half of my mind is curiosity and the other half is actually anxiety about the contents of the golem that are gradually being revealed to the public.

What happens once is not always the same thing twice, but in this world, anything can happen.

I removed my armor with a bit of caution, thinking that it might be a manned golem, judging by the pattern I encountered with Himik, but the contents were far from what I had imagined, and I was relieved to see the scene, letting out a wry smile at my overly cautious self.

A structure like an electronic circuit was cut off by my swordfight, revealing a cruel sight, but otherwise it was mechanical and devoid of fantasy elements.

Only the red magic stone that sits in the center of the structure gives off a hint of fantasy.

It's pretty big.

Considering the power to move this huge body, it's a natural size, but at nearly one meter in diameter, the only word that comes to mind is ”huge”.

Even after being cut in half, you can still feel the powerful magic power.

It's certainly one of those products that if this magic stone goes out of control, it will cause a catastrophe.

Well, that's about as good as it gets.

I picked up a crushed magical stone about the size of a bowling ball in it.

You don't want to leave such a huge object at home, so you take it in your hand, thinking it's a reasonable size, but it's still quite large.

The magic power you feel is also reasonably large, so you decide that it's enough for your benefit.

Spoils of war, Lord?

Well, I guess the timing was good. Earlier than I expected.

Returning from inside the armor, Himikku turns his attention to the magic stone in my hand.

I answered the question that came with my gaze and jumped down from the golem with the magic stone under my arm, while Himik slowly floated down.

When I landed, I looked ahead and saw that the welcome had come sooner than I thought.

Follow the clattering sound of metal against metal and you'll find a group of full body armor coming toward you.

Enemies?

Well, for now, I can tell you that I'm not the enemy yet.

The signs that can be sensed from the group are tense.

Although I don't feel any hostility at the moment, but considering the content of the story, there is a possibility that they will continue to enter the battle.

However, that seems to be a groundless fear.

”Supervisor?

Yeah, it's me. Really, you have to cause trouble everywhere you go?　When I heard from my foolish brother about the discovery of the fallen angel, I flew in and found you.

”Hahahaha, sorry.

A group of armor stopped about five meters in front of me, and then spread out on either side, and I let a being I never imagined existed in my sight.

A cigarette falls from my mouth.

A person who couldn't care less about it appeared.

The fully equipped supervisor, the first time I've seen him, looks different.

Instead of his usual suit, he's wearing black, full-body armor with no excessive decoration.

But the figure never gives the impression of being poorly equipped, but instead, the pursuit of functional beauty gives the impression of being a supervisor.
