163 Episode 56: The sending fire goes out. (1/2)

Though it was the momentum that weakened, it is still slaughtered with a man whose gakun was alien in the burning woods.

Men are full of creativity. Blood continues to overflow from wounds devoured by chimeras and I don't know how they are able to move.

Gakun waves a sword wrapped with a magic blade against such a full-blown creative man. Gakun was tired of attacking even though he was able to scratch shallow at first.

The reason for this is that men are moving better over time. It may seem like a joke, but that was what was happening in front of me.

The motion that was left to me turns into an efficient motion. Gakun's sword flashes with precision, and he flushes it. If you show a gap, a heavy fist can slap you in the gut.

It's like a skilled warrior. It was powerful and quiet, a motion like sitting back. Is it my illusion that he seems to be regaining reason, as if through battle?

”Ooh, lah!

But Gakun hasn't lost either. No matter how good the opponent moves in the first place, he's still full of creativity. Even if the disadvantage can be eliminated, it cannot be overridden until it is advantageous.

Several times staggered, a man's fist is swung up from the bottom to play a hand with Gakun's sword. A fist aimed at Gakun's handles with a pinpoint made Gakun's sword fly and dance to the universe.

”Mr. Gark!

Charne screams Gakkun's name like a scream. I breathed unexpectedly, but Gakun didn't stop.

A hand that wasn't holding the sword is squeezed. Gakun had moved on to an attitude before he was beaten, as if he had foreseen. Gakun shook his fist out with all his strength.

”- Huh!”

”Huh.”

Mishi, and something sounds like a snarl. Gakun has a painful look on his face and falls back to step on it.

The man who received Gakun's fist stood still in the beaten position and eventually slowly turned his body back to Gakun.

――……

Flames burn. I can hear the trees burning down from afar. In that - the man moved his expression. Lift your lips slightly. Blood travels from the edge of its mouth.

... naturally. There's no reason not to throw up blood with such a deep wound. But the man's expression was still quiet. Very calm, staring at Gakun.

Gakun is staring back at the man as he unnaturally cramps his hands, whether he hurt his fist or not. The stare of the contrasting men came to an end when the man who was staring at Gakun slowly poked his knee on the spot.

A man poking at his knees and spitting blood out. Coughs up several times, exhales plundered exhales many times. I think my breathing is going to be painful to see and the lights on that life are close to extinguishing.

……――

Then a man uttered something. I don't know what you're talking about, but that was a definite word.

Gakun was quietly taking the word. With eyes that are usually narrow and don't know if they're open.

”... gar, k?

The man overlapped words. Now I called to make sure Gakun's name.

”... yes, it's Gark”

Gakun nodded quietly with his fist against his chest. The man who saw it nodded slowly and satisfactorily.

And the man joined his fists and fists in front of his own chest and drooped his head deep.... as if, to give thanks.

The next man went into surprising action. He broke his fist and put his hand on his chest. The hand ripped his chest in momentum and Charne made a small scream.

Gakun also opens his eyes to the sudden action of the man, trying to reach out but stopping the movement. Because the man spit out his blood, but offered his blood-stained hand to gut.

-... in whose hands a beautiful demonic stone of deep red, well known even in the flames, was held.

”... is that what you want me to say?”

Gakun asks in a trembling voice. The man didn't seem to understand the words, but the man still nodded as if he had drawn Gakun's will.

Gakun reaches for the Demon Stone. And I made sure the demon stone was put into Gakun's hands, and I lost my strength in a position where the man knelt.

That appearance seems to be a sincere thank you to Gakun and to have kept up the good work. Its face lit by flames was everywhere peaceful and satisfying.

Gakun was squeezing the received demon stone and shivering his shoulder as it was.... After all, there are things I don't know about this man.

Why did you hate Chimera, and why do you look closer to humans than the sub-races witnessed in the Kingdom of Palettia? Finally, how did you show such a bare gesture that you could regain your sanity?

I don't know anything. And I'm sure the art of knowing everything about it has been lost. Still, I'm sure he was saved. The look makes me want it to be, even if the words don't make sense or I can no longer know him.

Sister Wang! Are you all right!

Second, I heard voices from above. If I turned my gaze overhead, there was Navre. I guess he came running for me on an air bike. Behind it I saw other knights on air bikes.

That was the moment that marked the end of this strange series of disturbances.

Navre rushed me on an air bike, and it's after we were recovered.

Fire extinguishing activities were carried out by local knights in the mountain fires caused by men who were alien to the flames and managed to contain the combustion. The body of a man who was an example alien could also be recovered.

Back in Filwach we had no big scratches, but there were fine scratches, so we got paid.

After that allowance, I headed to the place where the man's body was resting. There's Gakun, and he looks at me like he noticed me.

”... Dear Anis”

”Gakun, I was here”

”Yep.”

Gakun's hands were wrapped around a bandage. He was a man of ridiculous strength when he was fighting, but when he became a corpse, he seemed no different than a normal human being.

The man remains with that satisfied look on his face. Gakun, who shifted his gaze from me, just looks at the man's face.

”... what was it, Koz”
