Dont let your guard down, okay? A Great Dungeon is vastly different compared to the surface of Orcus. Dont think of it as the same or else youll experience pain. I will be careful.
The spider Hajime caught didnt have magic stone, a normal poisonous spider. The fact that she was almost killed by creature other than a demonic beast, and how Hajime helped her, made Kaori even more depressed. When she was still in Koukis party, she was an all-rounder, however, in Hajimes party, she isnt at all useful.
It made Kaori panic more and more inwardly. As such, Kaori put even more attention towards the surroundings which caused the conversation between the two to lessen, and they got out of the jungle with a subtle atmosphere between them.
Ahead of them was This isnt this the so-called ships graveyard? Amazing those are sailing ships, but the size In the rocky area ahead of the jungle were several partly rotted sailing ships lodged. The sailing ships were around a hundred meters in length at the lowest, and in the far distant was an even bigger one with at least three hundred meters in length.
The bizarre spectacle made Hajime and Kaori unconsciously halted their advance. However, it didnt take a long time for Hajime and Kaori to regain their senses and entered the ships graveyard. They advanced by passing through the gaps between rocks, sometimes passing over them, while at other times, they walked on the ships.
Even so there are only battleships here. But only the biggest one there seems to be a passenger boat. It has luxurious decorations on it The ships in this graveyard didnt have cannons located at the starboard side like those battleship sail-type on earth. Even so, Hajime was able to conclude they were battleships because there were marks of fierce battle on all of the ships.
From the appearance of the ships, they seemed to have received magic attacks. Some have their masts cleanly cut, burnt, carbonized decks, and petrified ropes and nets.
They didnt have any cannon, so they used long-ranged magic to defeat the enemies which was a battle method imaginable from the marks remained. The surroundings are! When they felt they heard shout of many men all of a sudden, the surroundings scenery began to distort.
Hajime and Kaori stopped walking from the surprise and they observed the surroundings to observe what was happening. The surrounding distortion became even more intense and before they were aware of it, Hajime and Kaori were already on a ships deck, above the vast ocean.
Following that, they looked at their surroundings, it was not the ships graveyard, but hundreds of sailing ships divided into two groups, confronting each other. Above the ships were people raising their weapons while shouting. Th-The heck is this Ha-Ha-Hajime-kun? Am I currently inside a dream? Hajime-kun, you are here, right? Both Hajime and Kaori were taken aback, but they somehow managed to get out of their confusion, however, they werent able to look at their surroundings.
While they did so, a big spark rose into the sky, generating firework-like loud voices followed by the hundreds of ships moving out simultaneously. The fleet on the side of the ship Hajime and Kaori rode on also moved out after the firework rose. And when the ships approached a certain distance, they used the momentum to ram the other ships used its bodies, while magic were also fired. Flame bullets fired accompanied by roaring sounds and created holes in the ships bodies.
Huge tornadoes advanced aiming at the masts. The seas surface froze, stopping the ships. And bullets of gray-colored sphere instantly petrified everything.
Even the deck Hajime and Kaori were on was hit by the flame bullets and began to blaze up grandly. The ships crews immediately activated magic to draw up the sea water and extinguished the fire. It was literally a battlefield where innumerable people and ships fought on. The fired magic clad in killing intent grazed their skins. Hajime and Kaori absentmindedly watching these spectacle, and once again fire bullets fired from behind them. The bullets courses were aimed straight towards Hajime and Kaori.
Hajime buried his question of why did they suddenly were involved in this war in his head, and he pulled out Donner because it was OK to kill everyone because they attacked first. Thus, he intercepted the fire bullets using the railgun. The bullet fired was accompanied by explosive sound and a flash, but unexpectedly it didnt even hit the flame bullets much more intercepting them.
The bullet flew into the sky, and it disappeared. Raising surprised voice for the nth times, Hajime embraced Kaori by his side and began to evade. Wait, I will obstruct them! Light Severance! With Kaoris chant, the beginner-level defense magic of light attribute appeared. Hajime tried to evade because the unknown magic kept going even after their cores were hit, but Kaori had activated her magic and couldnt move away from there.
Reluctantly, he activated Vajra and waited for the flame bullets. However, Hajimes worry proved to be groundless because Kaoris barrier completely blocked the flame bullets. With dubious expression, Hajime thought whether he just misfired while tilting his head, and he once again fired at the incoming flame bullets. Even this time, Hajimes Magic Eye indeed saw the cores being hit, but the bullet just passed through the flame bullets and flew towards the day after tomorrow..
Is that it? Seeing that, Hajime was guessing why his attack wasnt effective and decided to try another method of attacking. Kaori tried to put up another barrier to block the incoming flame bullets, but Hajime stopped her and activated Wind Claw in Donner.
Following that, he evaded, and at the same time, he slashed the flame bullets using Wind Claw. This time, the flame bullets didnt pass through and slashed in two. Umm, Hajime-kun? It doesnt seem to be an illusion nor was it a real thing. The physical attack didnt effective, but attacks that contained magic power are effective. Good grief, whats with this situation. Hajime spat a sigh from this troublesome situation and Gwaa, an agonized voice rang right from behind him.
While wondering what it was, he turned around and there was a young man crouching while suppressing his abdomen, while his other hand was holding a cutlass. Looking carefully, there was a pool of blood below him and blood covered icicle rolling nearby. He must have been shot with the icicle. Are you okay!? A pure-white light released from her and wrapped the man.
He should be healed in a blink of an eye because Kaori was a Healer or so she thought, but the result was unexpected. The moment the young man received Kaoris healing magic, he turned into light particles and disappeared.
W-Why After a little pondering, Hajime told the confused Kaori what he thought had happened. Wasnt it because the effect and attribute of the magic didnt matter as long as it carried magic power? Then, I-I just killed that person Kaori, this is not reality. Just think of it as an illusion where we can move freely. Besides, you cant call something that disappeared by being healed a human. Hajime-kun un, you are right. I am sorry that I was confused a little there. But I am okay now. Though slight, Hajime said words of concern to Kaori.
However, Kaori didnt feel happy like the usual her, only drooping her shoulders apologizing. Then, she smiled to smooth things over. Seeing her reaction made Hajime inadvertently muttered the thing he had thought since earlier. You keep apologizing, eh. Did you say something? No, nothing. Hajime moved his gaze from Kaori. It was not because of the subtle atmosphere drifting around Kaori, but because he felt ominous presences. When he looked around, the soldiers were shouting and attacking the nearby ships, and before they were aware of it, several men with dark gazes were looking at Hajime and Kaori.
Kaori noticed Hajimes gaze and looked at the direction he was watching, and the men immediately came to attack Hajime and Kaori. For the God! Long live! Die for our God! They were in frenzy. With bloodshot eyes, they declared while scattering saliva around. Completely abnormal. He was able to guess it was a war between countries from how the fleets looked like, and he finally understood the reason for it.
It was a religious war. If he strained his ears, he could hear the other soldiers in the other fleets were shouting similar things. However, they were shouting different Gods name. Kaori could only stand in blank surprise inside the frenzied atmosphere. Embracing Kaori from behind, Hajime thrust out and fired Donner over his shoulder.
Only, the fired thing was not a bullet but mass of pure magic power. Using Magic Power Compression and Magic Power Emission derived from Magic Power Manipulation, he was able to blow off magic power without affecting the target physically. In a sense, it was a flawless technique to disarm the target because human and even demonic beast wouldnt be able to move if their magic power was exhausted.
This move had always been kept inside of him because he would not use such a lukewarm method on his enemy. However, this lukewarm method was the most useful in this situation. The bright red bullet fired by Donner momentarily cut through the space and pierced the forehead of one of the frenzied, cutlass swinging soldier.
Without stopping, the bullet hit the soldier behind the previous one, too, and their bodies instantly dispersed. We are going to jump! Dont bite your tongue! It would be troublesome if they were surrounded on the deck, so Hajime jumped using Aerodynamic while embracing Kaori. Kaori screamed from the powerful momentum. Kicking the soldier on the crows nest, Hajime landed in one of four crows nest on the masts.
Below them, the frenzied soldiers were looking up at Hajime and Kaori with bloodshot eyes. Even though there were the enemies from other countries, too, somehow some of the men were targeting Hajime and Kaori. Moreover, the ones targeting them didnt have any distinction between allies and enemies. Their numbers keeps increasing one after another just like a bad case of contagious virus. Before even a moment passed and in front of their own enemies, the soldiers suddenly stopped moving and twisted their heads, staring at Hajime and Kaori.
They immediately came crowding towards the two like a horror movie. The frenzied air even made Kaori pale. Now then, what shall we do to get out of this disgusting space? Maybe theres something like an exit? We are in the middle of the sea, you know? Maybe theres an exit in one of these ships? Kaori recalled and compared it to the convenient tool of the blue cat robot. Looking at the surroundings, Hajime frowned and objected her idea because the ships were too numerous.
From what I can see, theres at least six hundred ships here its impossible to search one by one. Dont you think well be able to find the exit faster if the war ended? End it I see, time to kill everyone, huh? Kaori also can say something extreme, eh. Umm, I dont mean that Yup, that must be it. No other thing comes to my mind, and I like it better this way.
Firing bullets of magic power and shooting through the several soldiers climbing using the ropes on the mast, Hajime thought it would be better if he had make a magic gun. He thought so while he continued firing the bright red bullets along with Remote Control derived from Magic Power Manipulation, making them intercepted the incoming flame bullets.
Kaori, I know you arent proficient in offensive magic, but even healing magic becomes offensive magic here. And even if we dont know how to escape from here, it is the truth that we are being attacked, so lets knock them all down. Hearing Hajimes words, Kaori began her chant with resolute expression while trembling. The frenzied battlefield seemed to shave off at Kaoris mind, but she absolutely didnt want to show a disgraceful behavior to the important one beside her.
Hajime was glaring at the surroundings as if protecting her. Looking down, allies and foes were mixed as they boarded the ship, killing each other. Unlike what happened when Hajime and Kaori attacked, the killing in this illusion was full of bloodshed.
On the deck were someones entrails, cut limbs, and splattered heads. Everyone was repeatedly shouting For the God, Pagan, and Divine Punishment, with frenzied eyes as they spread killing intent. Within the fresh blood of the soldiers scattered just like a storm of cherry blossom, the crows nest where Hajime and Kaori, no, it was more like the soldiers were obstinately targeting Hajime and Kaori.
Time to time, bright red bullets flew about in all directions, shooting through the enemies. Furthermore, they flew around Hajime and Kaori to protect them, positioned as both offense and defense at the same time. However, the frenzied soldiers werent even worried, repeatedly attempted suicide attacks. Tens of the soldiers used flight magic while there were those who approached by going from one mast to another. It could be seen that the fight was concentrated on the ship where Hajime and Kaori rode.
Hajimes Magic Eye also caught the fluctuation of magic power of highest-ranked magic from the hand of the magicians aiming at them. Then, ripple of light spread into the battlefield with Kaori as its center.
The ripple throbbed as it expanded for so so many times, reaching one kilometer in radius. The enemy who touched by the ripple was wrapped by light. Highest-ranked healing magic of light attribute, Scripture. It was a super wide-ranged healing magic with effect of healing everyone inside its area. The range itself was depended on the amount of users magic power and proficiency, but at its worst, its effective range was meters in radius.
Moreover, if the user gave out the sign beforehand, it would be able to heal specific object. And normally this magic was used with tens of magician, and took a lot of time to chant along with its stupidly gigantic magic array. To be able to activate it in only one, two minutes alone was impossible unless one was a cheat-like character. At the same time the light of Scripture activated by Kaori wrapped the battlefield, all soldiers inside the effective area had their bodies dispersed without distinction of ally or foe.
When the magic ended, Kaoris body tilted from magic power exhaustion, and was thus promptly supported by Hajime. Ohh, a mass reproduction of the Mary Celeste, huh. You did great, Kaori. No, should I say as expected of you?
Ah, uh, th-theres no such a thing. Hajime-kun and the others are far more amazing Honest praise from Hajime made Kaoris cheeks blush from embarrassed. She made a self-ridiculing smile as she thought Yue would be able to use more powerful magic quickly. Then, she muttered Replenish, to replenish the lost magic power from the pendant given by Hajime. Hajime had improved the pendant with magic array and the ability of taking out the stocked magic power by chanting because Kaori was incapable of directly manipulating magic power.
Hajime slightly knitted his eyebrows and wanted to say something when he saw Kaoris expression, but he put it aside for now because he had to deal with the new incoming enemies. The battle had restarted. With the ineffectiveness of physical attack, it was a situation where the large amount of soldiers didnt falter against any kind of attack as they battled on the ship.
Normally, it might be a hard situation, but there were cheat-like monsters present. Big fleets of two countries were afterwards annihilated by the two humans in a span of one hour. Just endure it. Immediately after the last soldiers were annihilated, their surroundings were once again distorted. They noticed that they had returned to ships graveyard from before. Wondering if the annihilation was indeed the correct answer, Kaori immediately sighed in relief, ran to the nearby rock, and vomited.
However, she vomited nothing since the dinner she ate had already been digested, and thus she felt a pain from trying to vomit. With tears accumulated in the corner of her eyes, Kaori used one hand to tell Hajime Dont come, to stop him. However, Hajime still approached her and rubbed her back. Kaori didnt want to show such a pitiful sight to him, but she felt comforted from the gentle and warm feelings transmitted to her back.
Her nausea and spirit gradually recovered. Hajime took out apple juice-like drink from Treasure Box and presented it to her. Kaori obediently drink it heartily and her energy returned. The sweet and fresh taste, flushed the sour taste of gastric juice. Sorry Kaori who knitted her eyebrows and apologized for the trouble made Hajime narrowed his eyes. Well, I think it is inevitable.
Even I feel disgusted by it. I never thought humans would be so frenzied because of their blind belief. Anyway, lets rest for now. Even I want to recover my considerably used magic power. Say, Hajime-kun. What was that illusion? Is it related to these ship wreckages.
Kaori stood up then sat on the nearby rock, and then she asked him. Hajime took a little time to think before told her his conjecture.
It is just a maybe, but I think the illusion might have been reproducing a battle in the past. Tio said it when we were in Guryuu-en Great Volcano. She said isnt it possible that each of the dungeon had its own concept prepared by the Liberators?
If thats true, then here is To know the misery brought by the Mad Gods maybe? Aah, I think so, too. Continuing Hajimes words by muttering the answer, Kaori recalled the spectacle from before, her face once again turned pale, and her body trembled as if she was suffering from a cold.
What made Kaori felt sick was the madness from the soldiers. Their behavior and speech were exactly of those so called Fanatic while she also couldnt help but feel disgusted from the killing. The people continued to laugh loudly in a frenzy even when blood were spraying from their bodied. There were even those who died from gouging their own hearts out, raised it towards the sky as an offering to their Gods.
There was also an older brother who stabbed through his own younger brother just to attack Hajime and Kaori, while the younger one laughed proudly. War itself was a place filled with madness, but one they just saw was far too ghastly. And it was wage all For our God, so Seeing Kaori covering her mouth because she couldnt endure it, Hajime sat right beside Kaori and grasped Kaoris hand.
He couldnt leave Kaori, who sickened by the madness, alone. Kaori was slightly surprised, looked at Hajime, relaxed, and squeezed Hajimes hand back. Hajime-kun, thank you Dont mind it. I understand the pain from being exposed to the madness. I felt that when I fell into the abyss Then, how? Wait, theres no need for you to answer It was Yue-san, right? Yeah, it was because of her. If I hadnt met her inside the abyss I wonder how I would have ended up. Hajime looked into the distance in affection and nostalgia.
Seeing his expression made Kaori felt her chest squeeze. Its mortifying. To defend, to protect Hajime-kun I wanted to do that. But even if I said that, its not like I can do anything. Since its me who I couldnt even protect a promise. Kaori joking laughter made Hajime narrowed his eyes again. Kaoris smile was not the usual warm, positive smile because it might have also included self-torment and self-ridicule.
Youve been apologizing since we came here, and dont make such a smile. Ummm Hajimes sudden words made Kaori raised? However, her smile immediately collapsed and her expression stiffened from Hajimes next words. Listen, Kaori. Why did you follow us here? Thats am I just a burden after all? The downcast Kaori made Hajime sigh, and he didnt answer her question.
I remember the talk we had under the moonlight while drinking that disgusting tea that day. Thats why, honestly, I dont think its weird that you have goodwill for the current me.
Hajime-kun, I However, I have no intention of denying it. I am sure Kaori had things only you can see, and thats what stirred your heart. Thus, theres no meaning for me to deny the decision you made. I have given you my answer, even so I think its a good thing that you favor me. Even Shia didnt even feel discouraged. Rather, she recently made me seriously worry if she was going to attack me in my sleep.
Hajime recently felt the dread as he thought of the rabbit-eared girl with bugged physical strength. Seeing such a Hajime, Kaori made a wry smile in agreement. Un, I think her aggressiveness and positiveness amazing.
I treated her harshly at the beginning. After being summoned to a new world and thrown down into the depths of hell, Hajime Nagumo met Yue and together they conquered the Great Orcus Labyrinth.
