Chapter 12 (1/2)

After losing its leader, the <black wolf=”” fang=””> was brittle

As I descended onto the fortress after bringing down Goleth,

“――The Head of the eneot taken down! Raise the shouts of victory!”

UOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Under the orders of the hts of the fortress thrusted their weapons towards the sky and shouted victoriously

Theto climb up the fortress before, now scrambled to run away

Their backs were showered by arrows and spells from the fortress

“You’ve done well, Edgar-kun! But don’t do anything reckless like that in the future, okay?”

“Ai!”

Julia-kaasan said this, then started the chant for a spell while hugging me

“――卜・∨・∨・卜・卜・λ・λ(Fla!)――《Fire Storm》!”

There it is, 《Fire Storm》!

As expected, an accurate decision based on the circumstances

《Fire Stor mercenaries

A storm of fire suddenly appeared fro towards, so theinto chaos

“――I said, I will not let a single one of you escape, right?”

Mo this

Scary as hell

“――My wife took down the Head of the enemy! Brave warriors of Ranzrack Fortress, now is the tie!”

Before I noticed, dad took the lead of a cavalry unit and ainst the disordered mercenaries to doubly make sure

Thethat can be called resistance

At any rate, the mercenaries are very brittle, most likely Goleth used his ability and fear to unify the mercenaries

As the battle before showed, there is a minimum casualty count to assault a fortress no matter what

It should be appropriate to assume that Goleth with that 《The Evil God’s Curse of Cala bound them with fear

But Goleth died

Of course they start running

There is no way a uard in this circumstance

――The battle is over

“…huh? Edgar-kun?”

Julia-kaasan’s voice feels distant

“Sleepy-time, huh Still a baby after all~”

Her voice feels even more distant

“My Lady, it was a superb display of fighting prowess”

It’s dark so it’s hard to see, but it seeht

…I want to [Appraise] him too, but …… I’m sleepy

“――Also the child of you two Looking at his sleeping face like this, the fierce God like efforts of his from before are hard to believe”

…hn? Sleepy…? Why am I [sleepy]?

“Those knights who saw the fight froar-dono a baby is too disrespectful, so so”[1]

No good, I can’t think anymore

“…Baby…rlet, that……ick naht……”

My consciousness is fading away

When I came to, I was in a familiar space

The vacuum of space where Marquekt is visible below, it should be clear if I describe it this way

Yes, after I was stabbed by the slasher and it turned out I would be reincarnated in another world, this is where I met the Goddess that time

The Goddess simply appeared from nowhere at all

“――The one you dropped in the lake was this Golden [Enchant Magic]? Or hness]?”

To the Goddess, who acted out so,

“Did your personality change in the short while since our last ?”

“Youtime”

“You say a long time, but … wasn’t it about 20 days?”

Betaking up after reincarnating and the battle of Ranzrack Fortress, about that many days should have passed

But the Goddess shook her head

“To be precise, 1 year 4 month and 20 days”

“1 year 4from the conception”

It was 1 year 4 o when Alfred-tousan and Julia-kaasan did the XX, and I was conceived

10 ave birth to ained my consciousness as a reincarnated person

And after that, 20 days have passed until the battle of Ranzrack Fortress

“Then, thatfetus, right?”

“Of course that is right I would like you to trust overns the endless cycle of death and rebirth”

“Well, sorry about that I thought it should be alright if you are the one handling it, but …”

I suddenly realized

I can speak norht?

In a panic, I look over my body, but my body is still a baby

“…so, what is with this situation exactly? I didn’t die, right?”

The Goddess nodded

“Of course Your current state is called 『Growth Sleep』”

“Growth sleep?”

“Right When it’s time for a level up, the people of Marquekt are assaulted by a desperate need for sleep, then enter a state of deep sleep, called 『Growth Sleep』 With this Growth Sleep, they adapt their body to the newfound power brought by the level up”

“In other words, since my level went up, my body demanded sleep to cope with it”

“Not quite right You reach a state where you can level up, then after experiencing the Growth Sleep, your level goes up as a result”

“…I don’t understand the difference”
