Vol 3 Chapter 2 (2/2)
”This kind”
S Kazuh the contact portion, the ”treasure”'s ie poured into Kazuma's brain
”a seed?”
That was the first impression Unidentified life force, so to speak
The strong pounding wave, from within the shell, rose ready to burst open
”What on Earth is this?”
Being asked so, the fairy looked away After its eyes wondered about for a while, it looked at Kazulance
”Letlike a trade secretno?”
”What sort of business?well, it doesn't matter”
Although riposting, Kazuma easily allowed the secret He had no interest in a treasure he can't take hold of and obtained only the necessary infor further
”Then show h We'll follow from there”
The ill certainly remember the treasure's presence Nowas, Kazuma had confidence he could locate it less than 24 hours
”Eh? Ah, that's fine Because we knohere it is”
”What? - Ah, so that's the reason”
The answer to the question that came to mind, Kazuma instantly found it by himself In other words the commission wasn't for a search but for a recovery
”The place it is this way”
The fairy touched his hear with hers for a second ti the na in, Kazuma's eyes faintly opened wider
”Ah? This is - ”
”So?”
”Nothing Leaving that aside, bug, are you co too?”
”Yeah, I' - By the way, Contractor-sama?”
Resigned but including a faint hope, the fairy looked at Kazuma
”Do you remember my name?”
”No”
Instant reply Incidentally he had no guilty feeling about it The fairy nah
”It's Tiana Please treat me favorably, Contractor-sama”
”Stop that Kazuma is fine”
When Kazuma told her his nalad
”Please treat me favorably, Kazuma♥”
”Use Kazuma-sama”
””
”It's a joke”
”teh”
Overwheler, she pretended to throw kicks from Kazuma's back
Ei! Ei!! I give up!!!
After the one-two punch, a reversal left hook and then a left, low hit finish stroked Kazuma's phantasm, Tiana finally felt refreshed
However, she was careless Kazue his perception had no blind spots
”I saw that”
”fukyaaa”
The sether with the cold reply, delivering a hard blow on Tiana's face
Part 3
”Kazu ~ ”
Froe, Tiana's boredom leaked out
”Hey, Kazuyuuu!?”
Eli screws on Tiana When her complexion became bluish-purple and the restrains became loose he shortly informed her
”Shut up”
”Auuuuu”
Disregarding the fairy's groans, Kazu landscape Because the sun already set, the place of destination supposed to be beyond that point couldn't be seen Even if that is supposed to be the highest place in japan
”A train? Why a train? If it were me, I would fly”
”Then fly By yourself”
That exchange of words already happened two hours ago
Even forcibly, about no choosing a different course of action, Kazu it vehemently The fact that the pixies are end But, for ard thatthe lovely outward appearance as so
The pixies pranks are plenty disagreeable Breaking ite outcomes to force people into unpleasant situations - they will do them without hesitation Tiana was no exception
Opening the running train's door all of a sudden, erasing theglass where children bent forward to see outside, causing poltergeist phenomena into the driver's seat
And lastly - it's unkno she did it, but when she ed a train barrel roll, Kazue, he sealed her entire movement
Tianathis is Kazuenerous step Without speech and attitude, it's possible she has nothing but some residual part of race awareness
”Kazumaaa, let me out”
Otsuki ~ Otsuki
Covering Tiana's voice, obstinately begging, the announcer infor Kazuet up in silence, Tiana's eyes sparkled
With this, he'll let me out!
But, far froot off the train and started walking
”Eh? W-wait!?”
Without response to the frantic voice, calling to halt, the train slowly started to move From theTiana looked at the station platform In the middle of the scene that started to flow little by little, just once, Kazuma waved his hand
”AhAh”
It's body shaking with anger, the fairy shouted as far as possible
”Kazuma, you idiot!”
That scream that couldn't shake the atmosphere reached no one's ears
Approximately 10 minutes afterwards
”Kazumaaaaaaaaaaa!!”
Fro on the dark street, a screaht ball suddenly stopped right beside Kazuma's face Maybe because the relative velocity was equal, the figure of the girl groings inside the light and even her angry expression could be perceived in detail
shi+fting his attention to her only for a second, he
”That was unexpectedly quick”
”Why did you do that? Leaving someone behind, how terrible!”
”Well, I hesitated”
It wasn't about whether or not to take so
”Not that sort of indulgent ht to deal with you before, to eliminate future trouble”
”tch!”
Involuntarily, the i of ”eli about his behavior so far, there is no room for doubt This man is serious
”Auuuuuuu~ I won't pull pranks anymore so don't kill me!”
To the la fairy, Kazuma showed a cynical smile
”Ho - Can you take responsibility for those words? Next time I'll deal with you in a conclusive manner”
a conclusivewas excessively tangible
Tre in fear, Tiana nodded soundlessly
”humph”
Faintly slanting his lips, Kazuma twisted the acceleration Tiana chased in a panic that speeding up bike Both of theht ahead The vast forest stretching out at the botto in front of theahara Forest
”Hey, hey”
Even after proood child, Tiana can't be silent more than one minute Even humans can be like this at tiical silence
”Where did you get that vehicle?”
It was a natural question A more accurate one would be not ”where” but ”by what means” At any rate it would have been i on a plot of land he had no plans of visiting
Kazuma replied simply
”I borrowed it”
”Borrowed? Really? Maybe there are kind people after all”
Holding no sarcas words The superficial comprehension towards human society in addition to hu
”Indeed The society has not yet degraded so”
A brazen declaration By the way Tiana didn't notice that Kazued As one would expect, he thought the down jacket to be ugly and changed it to a dark gray jacket Perhaps this is also a borrowed item
In any case, after nothing but traveling for a dozen of h the sea of the trees, Kazuma located a private road, quiet and secluded
”This way, huh?”
”Yeah”
Abandoning the bike Kazu to be broken And then, after several juhtly elevated hill overlooking a nificent residence built in the mysterious sea of trees
”These guys?”
A e lifted his lips and a shter leaked out
”I see So they were these guys”
”Errr, I'm afraid to ask but are they your acquaintances?”, Tiana tierous, carnivore-like smile
”No, they're not personal acquaintances”
Kazuma clearly shook his head, while that ferocious s to his face
”Butsince while back I couldn't help but want to crush these guys”
”Wh-What kind of people are they?”
”These guys are”
”well, if it were me instead of him, I'd kill you instantly”
”Auuuuuu ~ I don't want to die”
While weeping, Tiana clung to Kazuma
”Hey! If it's Kazuma, can you search where it went!? Can you!? Please, I'll pay an extra charge”
”Well - calm down”
”I can't calm down!!”
”Listen up! Look this way”
Kazuht So its neck-bonesattention to the head of such randos like fairies
”Auuuuuuuu~”
Kazuma quietly but with a sharp voice ony fairy's ears
”Look properly inside the mansion Do you see?”
The residence was approxis that could be seen with a physical eye were only the outlines of the mansion But -
”Huh? Isn't it kind of noisy?”
As far as Fuujutsushi+ and Pixies are concerned, both of the the infor is easy
Just as Tiana said, the residence's atmospheric was uproarious Disturbance and impatience and the mayhem caused by them were transmitted as far as below the two
”I wonder what happened”
”Well, it doesn't seem they are merely busy Perhaps the disappearance of the treasure was an unexpected accident for that lot”
”You ain stolen by a different someone Doesn't that mean it will be more difficult to search!?”
Kazu his shoulders
”It's not like you'll be troubled if I don't find it personally”
”I'll be troubled!!”
Cruelly brushi+ng away Tiana's half-cries he aiaze at the mansion
”Leaving jokes aside let's take a closer look”
Kazu wind that body s the distance by 10 meters with each jump, he stopped 20 meters from theafter him asked:
”Won't we be exposed? If we are so close?”
”It's safe”, Kazuma assured her
At any rate, the opponent is the Tsuwabuki Family - a family of Chijutsushi+s They don't have techniques for detecting things that aren't connected to the ground
”Well then - ”
Concentrating his consciousness, he searched for useful infor as the other party is in a place with air, there is nothing an Enjutsushi+ can't spy on Whether it's a distance of 20 meters, obstacles such as roofs and walls, for the apart useless infor up only the necessary one
The tuning was irazed alto was reached Kazuma's ears
- you haven't captured it yet?
Yes - but we have perfectly caught hold of its presence and now it's only a matter of time
Not particularly However splendid that is, The Grand Festival is tomorrow, do you understand?
”A - Already”
At the ihtly doubtful at Kazuma
”What is The Grand Festival?”
Without answering, Kazu below freezing at once, Tiana backed off shi+vering
”I see - ” with an icy shtly
”It was this year, that thing?”
”Th - that thing?” too reckless Tiana asked a second time But this time there was an answer
”I said it earlier, didn't I? About that evil sacrificing ceremony It seems they do it at intervals of approxiht of the new year In short, toht”
”You're well informed, huh?”
”Because it's a famous ritual”
Kazuma spit out unpleasantly
”These fellows, far fro, they take pride in it, instead”
”Hmm - So, there is some connection between that ceree?”
”There must be As far as the Tsuwabuki are concerned, the cere Because the rite is so close, there's no way they have enough composure to be concerned with unrelated stuff - but I have no idea what they'll use it for”
”That cannot be allowed - ”
Silencing Tiana, who started screa, Kazu visual information
Do hurry I don' care about means As the head's representative, you have permission to act freely
In one of the roup of men Kazuma focused on that woman
dark - , that was the i Darker than darkness itself, that straight glossy hair was falling like a waterfall as far as her knees A black suit It sees, but a deep slit on its left revealed alh
She was approxily beautiful, she was so bewitching she didn't seeht for sore eyes, and yet the type you didn't want to get to know She see her but there wasn't a single person appearing to look down on her
All their foreheads were sweating, iood mood
If it seems on't make it in time, we have no choice but to call Mayumi back
At those matter of course words, the men were vehemently disturbed
Kureha-saainst the Head's intention -
Silence!
That woman everyone called Kureha raised her head triumphantly
Now thatover Tsuwabuki Do you complain?
N - noouldn't
Ai a cynical smile at the overpowered, drained in cold sweat men, Kazuma whistles frivolously
”Scary woman”
But that face suddenly beca
”Ah? Oi, you don't say”
That severe glance pierced the ceiling, directly grasping hi it, that iht process A lethal space was born
who?
Si for Kazuma's identity, his body was rapidly drawn to the surface
”W - wait a second! What the heck is this?”
There's no way his as stopped With a force by far surpassing the dynaround
What on earth is this!? But first, how did she noticed? Did she changed the dust in the at?
While Kazuave direction to those men
”There's a trespasser in the sky I'll drop him off here so counter attack! ”
”Y-yes!”, the men nodded obediently
Although not understanding, it seems they put all their trust in Kureha's power The eyes looking up at the ceiling held not a speck of doubt, storing power, preparing the one finishi+ng blow for the intruder ill fall
This is pretty bad, huh?, Kazu
This was not far from a crisis Since he doesn't knohat kind of ability he is dragged down, it's impossible to resist He tried to ease up the speed of the fall ind, but it had almost no effect
As if his body's weight was increased ten, no more then a hundred times
that's it!
Kazu doard a wind blade Just because of that one stroke the field of that invisible poas cut cross-section-ally while the back-lash eased up the speed of the fall But it was already too late -
Gonn! Gogann!
S, Kazuma fell into the Tsuwabuki residence Of course, the as doing the ser, but it wasn't a pleasant feeling
”Don't underestimate us!”
Barelyto land, he used wind to counterbalance the Chijutsushi+'s attack co from every direction If they were to include one more blow, he would have obliterated everyone here
”Fugyaaaa!”
But, Tiana's existence, falling on his head at that precise time turned away the chance to attack
””
Without saying anything, Kazuripped the fairy froround
”Auuuuuuuu~”
”Good grief - ”
After looking down on the groaning fairy very annoyed, he turned his eyes to the surroundings
Because that attack supposed to deliver a certain kill was brushed off, the Chijutsushi+ peeled their eyes in fright But, that wasn't all
”F - fairy?”
Thelook asking why the fairy is here
Disturbance and surprise - a face that knowsup a scattered-on-the-floor Tiana and sizing it, he shouted clearly:
”You people, who devastated the fairy village! Know that the sins of blockheads like you will never be forgiven! We won't let you use our treasure for your wicked cere is the time this family will be ruined!”
Together with that boh the hole opened in the ceiling Before the dumbfounded, coure disappeared beyond the sea of trees
”What was that at the end?”
Putting a 10down on tree branches, Tiana asked with a stunned expression Kazuma answered with a smile:
”A confirmation tentative and the last one, well, I just ith the flow There's nobehind it”
The fairy's existence and Kazuma's words clearly disturbed them But more then that, the positive proof that the Tsuwabuki family stole the fairy's treasure was obtained
”Hmmm - So, ill you do next?”
”I'll wait”, Kazuma replied simply
”Only that?”
”Frorasped the treasure's whereabouts They said they would search for it There's no need for ht?”
””
Without taking action, stealing the opponent's result - even if Tiana thought that was an absolute makeshi+ft method, she kept her silence and her wisdom One way or another, it see ability
”Ku ku ku”
Thinking of soly enjoyable chuckle
”If I keep hidden the fact that the secret treasure has been returned I'd be able to do what I wanted Taking the round so to speak I'll ask nicely so don't return it without a fight, alright?”
”Ku ku ku ku - ”
Exactly as stated a while ago, he appears to plan the co shter, Tiana was scared from the marrow of her bones
Why? Why!?
While frantically plugging her ears, for the first ti of the Wind Spirits
Why did You make this kind of man Your Contractor!? That was absolutely, absolutely a mistake!
Whether the fairy's bitter soul screa of the Wind Spirits or not, only the spirit king knew
