Arifureta Chapter 149 (2/2)
“Haa, even shi+zushi+zu has fallen… Nagumo-kun you wo it then… together with Onee-sa like this and that-! … … … …… fumu, that’s not bad”
“Oi, get back to your sense Suzu I don’t want to becoe space”
Ryuutaro sighed in exasperation at Suzu as pondering with her hand supporting her chin And then, he noticed that there was no weight on his back and he picked up Kouki back in panic
“Haa… Kouki It’s not like I don’t understand your feeling you know Certainly, I cannot coot carried away by your fake”
With complicated expression, Ryuutarothat it wouldn’t reach the ear of his best friend When Kouki woke up, what kind of action he would take… i that, he hardened his resolve for the worst case to stop Kouki without fail as his best friend so that he wouldn’t make the mistake for the second time
“… I see Yue’s memory…”
“… Nn”
While walking through the new passage that appeared in Kouki’s room, Yue talked about the discrepancy in herabout how perhaps herself was a unique existencethat her uncle feared would occur
Yue took Haji up at Hajily However, she didn’t find the serious expression that she expected there Rather, Haji her to blink her eyes
“What to say, that talk is already far too late at this point of time isn’t it?”
“… Nn? … By any chance, Hajime noticed?”
“That’s, yeah If Yue’s immortality is absolute, then I can be more at peace of mind but… if that’s not the case then that’s the most important matter that concerns the life and death of eneration won’t activate if you are in an exhausted state Then, even though there are ic power to be exhausted, ere those bunches could only seal Yue and nothing else? That’s just obvious question, right? After all, if I understand the reason then perhaps I can make Yue to absolutely not die”
“… Hajime”
“Even if I say that, based on e talked ere at the abyss, it felt like Yue didn’t reht? You were in a daze from the sudden betrayal and when you noticed you were already sealed you said”
“… Nn”
“That’s why Rather than dredging up that doubtful point forcefully froht it’s just better if I si about it Perhaps by any chance, you don’t remember it because it’s a painful memory In the end, no matter what kind of existence Yue is, e… I won’t hand over Yue to anyone if it’s for that sake then I’ll do anything If someone tries to steal Yue from me, then no matter what kind of existence, no matter what kind of situation, I’ll kill them all”
Perhaps i separated frolaring fiercely toward an unseen enemy In the end, it was the usual conclusion of “Don’t ! If there is any hindrance, then just slaughter them all!” The truth was it was really simple and clear
Toward such Hajime whose affection and desire to monopolize Yue was exposed out and plain to see, Yue’s eyes turned so moist that even now they looked like they would burst With a gaze filled with so much heat that it seeabacho! Yue ju to devour――but,
“… shi+zuku, what is theof this?”
A black sheath was thrust before her eyes It was pushed out between Haji Yue’s kiss Yue traced the source of the pushed out black katana and stared reproachfully and asked at the source shi+zuku
shi+zuku’s gaze andering around restlessly, it see intentionally she did that reflexively
“E, err… you see, we still haven’t even confirht? That’s why, I wonder if doing so like that is better to be put on hold for later, so like that?”
“… And the truth?”
“It’s envi… not that I as well… not that Let’s pay attention to TPO, that’s what I mean Yep” (TN: TPO=Time, Place, Order (?))
shi+zuku whose gaze i lie Kaori beside her was “To stop Yue’s attack… as expected fro shi+zuku extreh praise
“Even though you say that, but it feels like soh?”
Haji to shi+zuku teasingly Immediately, shi+zuku’s cheeks blushed with vivid red autu that only I haven’t done is… lonely” She leaked out such whisper that sounded like an excuse There Tio continued the talk with further teasing
“Although, it was only a ‘chuu’ at the cheek If thou art swords in? The lips of master won’t be stolen without some forcefulness thou know?”
“Ste, stealing or anything… that’s i like that, I think it has to be in a proper situation, it should be done with the umo-kun is the one that does it by his initiative… I’ll feel happy”
Reddened cheek, so shi+zuku On her bosom was the black katana that she had already drawn back―the present froh it was the expression of shi+zuku’s e like that to the person himself
And then shi+zuku’s walking position was three step diagonally behind Hajiracefully following figure was just like a Yamato Nadeshi+ko (TN: Graceful in japan could be spelled as shi+zushi+zu) With a momentary flash, the second part of Haji at the base of her trademark ponytail
“…”
With continuing silence, Hajih he was looking at a rare animal
Basically, the fe Hajiirls that wanted with all theirthe word ‘improper’ just from one kiss made Hajime show his surprise with his eyes widened reflexively “Eh? A girl like this, really exists?” He was thinking like that inside his heart, it could be said that he was already considerable dyed by the color of Yue and co
Looking at that state of Hajih it seeh to shi+a and Kaori and the others too
“… What girl power Yaegashi+, is she a monster?”
It seeirl power that Yue witnessed was really a cheat For so at Yue with the tre a tre showered by attention fronified air was suddenly pushed out forcefully by Kaori as though to show her off
Yue groaned “muh”, and then she pushed out shi+a beside her “He? Wha, what is it?” Yue flapped the rabbit ears of the troubled shi+a using wind to further appeal at the appeal point even rin at Kaori
It appeared that they were doing partner shon “My best friend is absolutely cute!” Such wordless confrontation was being unfolded right now
Such usual Yue and Kaoria troubled smile She tried to re the two continuing to exchange sparking stare, she cut in between thile tapping Doryukken on her shoulder A wordless pressure was spreading
Yue and Kaori drew back with a stiff saze at shi+a Truly, since they ca
Hajied the talk whileexpression
“… Nevertheless, you reached a draith Yue who fought seriously You also rebuked Yue strongly, I’ve got to prepare a present for shi+a like this”
“Fue? I, is it fine?”
Haji that shi+a was the MVP for this time with how she scolded Yue’s nonsense and th shi+a as praised suddenly looked happy even while getting flustered
“… shi+a’s slap It was the first time for et the pain running through my cheek Wish to your heart’s content”
“… Yue-san, you are lightly holding a grudge, aren’t you? Well, it’s not like I have soranted already It’s fine if Hajiivesthat I did because I wanted to do it”
If it was in the past, shi+a would yell things like “Date!” or “Take h-spirited overly, rather she was s the choice to Hajime
“… What composure… so shi+a has already turned into a formidable enemy that rivaled Yue It was careless of me of all people”
“E, err, Kaori? For some reason, your face looks like a character of a dramatic story you know?”
“shi+zuku-chan, so that we can obtain that co ourselves with our position as a challenger”
“Err…”
The composed attitude of shi+a made Kaori feel impatience Her appearance with her ar was like a certain scholar searching for the truth somewhere Naturally, shi+zuku was bewildered by her best friend’s eccentricity
Looking at such a shi+zuku, Kaori opened her eyes wide kah! and declared
“Yes, we are not the challenger but we should be the attacker!”
“… Kaori You are getting tired you know? Let’s calm down a little”
“shi+zuku-chan, when the conquer of the great labyrinth is over, let’s attack Hajime-kun when he is asleep with the two of us”
“Really, just what are you saying!?”
“It’s fine With the trial this tirasped almost all the function of this body, so I think if it’s with the two of us ill e it somehow”
“The thing that has to be done at all cost is about the way Kaori’s head work I beg you to please come back to your senses…”
“I, it will be the first tiether okay, shi+zuku-chan!”
“… I wonder if I should hit you flying just like what shi+a did”
Toward Kaori asher resolve with rough breathing “Funsu!” and red cheeks, shi+zuku began to seriously considered whether she should slap her with a tired expression It appeared that her worrying habit still didn’t change even with the various things she had become unbounded from
“… Stop with the love co forward”
“Feeling this tired after we linked up, just what’s with that”
Suzu and Ryuutaro’s voice that sounded even e, but it seemed that it didn’t enter anyone’s ear This was after they had finished a serious trial of facing themselves, so perhaps it caused thes
With that kind of feeling, they advanced forith light atuard up for ten minutes
The party finally arrived at the end of the road On the ice wall of the end of the road, there was a on where its tops were arranged with the crest of each great labyrinths When Hajian to shi+ne faintly And then the whole as covered with soht It was a phenoreat labyrinth
When Hajiertips, a ripple spread as though a stone was thrown into water surface As expected, it seeate
Hajiaze at all members, then he nodded Yue and others nodded in response
And then Hajiht membrane all at once
…
…
…
“… It seems this time we aren’t separated, huh”
“… Nn Also that”
“Hmm, it appears that we hath finally arrived”
“What a pretty sanctuary”
When the light that dyed their sight cleared up, there was a wide space there
That beautiful quadrangle space that was supported by several thick ice pillars was h reflection rate that could be mistaken as mirror like all the ice walls until now, but ice wall that was made from pure ice that was really transparent
And then what attracted their attention theater that they had never seen at all since they came here It appeared the temperature of this space wasn’t that low It see in, small fountains were put here and there on the spacious lake surface Most likely there was also the hole where the water was flowing out
And then on such a lake surface there was the floating floor in the shape of stepping stone that was made froe ice sanctuary It was just right opposite the side where Haji ice was continuing until there on the quadrangle lake surface
Because the water didn’t freeze, Haji off his cold protection artifact The result was as expected, it was a cold space but it only felt cool and not freezing Just as Tio said, there was no doubt that this place was the deepest part of the [Ice and Snow Cavern] Even for a ‘liberator’, surely, they would beg off to have a residence with extreme cold
“… We… conquered it… hic- “
“Suzu-chan… you did it”
Suzu was overco at the sanctuary In various , she reached this achieveritted her teeth and endured, and finally she reached the goal It was natural for her to beher hand on Suzu’s shoulder while also crying in sympathy
That deep emotion was also si shi+ning was gathering a little in his eyes
“… We did it”
“Yeah I don’t kno h”
“That’s because every tied”
“Nooo, haha, well, the result is alright so ain’t that fine”
When shi+zuku slapped lightly at Ryuutaro’s arm, contrary to his words Ryuutaro averted his eyes aardly
With Hajime at the head, they used the ice foothold and advanced to the sanctuary Theyespecially happened A ic circle was drawn at a deep pool of the opposite shore Nothing happened when they stepped on it, so thinking about it based on the position, perhaps it was a ic circle for a shortcut
The entrance of the sanctuary was a large double door, there a crest that resembled snow crystal was drawn It was the crest of the liberator ‘Vandol Shune’ There was no sign of soth and pushed, it opened without resistance
“Even though the appearance is a sanctuary, the inside is like a house, huh”
“… Nn It’s like Oscar’s hideout”
Ahead of the opened door, there was nothing at all like stained glass or altar like in church In exchange, there was an entrance of theabove There was a corridor that continued inside and a stair that went to the second floor from two sides
Hajiic circle’s location According to the coht passage on the first floor Everyone advanced to the inside following Hajime’s lead On the way, there were several rooms, so they tried to open the door, inside there was just normal furniture put there The ice wall too when they tried to touch it only felt cool and not cold Just like Hajime’s cold protection artifact, surely there was some kind of cold protection measure applied to it
Like that, they advanced while ad the inside of the mansion, and finally, they found a thick door
“It’s here”
Hajime whispered that and opened the door without hesitation Inside there was indeed the ic circle that was their aim
Everyone quickly entered into that ic circle Just like usual, the inside of their brain was scrutinized and in the head of the people whose labyrinth capture was recognized, the age of the God’s raved immediately
The last of that――by acquiring the [Metaic], shi+a and others looked at each other’s face with their happiness plain to see, at that time,
“Guu!? GaAAh!!”
“… -, UuUUUUH!!”
Screauish resounded shi+a and others were startled and ures of Hajih they were enduring fierce headache
“Hajime-san!? Yue-san!?”
“What’s the matter, both of you!!”
shi+a and shi+zuku raised shocked voices
“Calm down! Kaori! Don’t be befuddled!”
“Eh? Ah, yes, I’ll examine them immediately!”
Tio’s thunderous roar fell on theThe healing expert Kaori was also scolded before she returned to her senses
And then when she was about to exaht after that,
“-a…”
“… nh”
Haji a lot seeth left their body and they slumped down, they fainted just like that shi+a and shi+zuku i for their state, it appeared that the two of theether
A burden to the degree that caused the tho had surpassed cheat character and reached bug level to faint… just what in the world happened Silence returned to the roo
“For the ti, we have to rest the two of them…”
The words of Tio (pervert), who became reliable with admirable calmness in this kind of time, made the confused members look at each other’s faces
