Volume 1 - Ch 4.04
Kagami-chan!
Aah, I heard you! Its still too early to give up, you know!
After calling out Kagamis name and sending some Monsters flying with her fists, Takako looked back, as Kagami gave Alice a thumbs up and said Good Job with a smile.
Its thanks to Kagami-san.
Muttered Alice, feeling extremely satisfied.
Bringing back the Adventurers that had fled was simple, you know? All of them were saying, I want to rescuethe people who are fighting!, but everyone lost their will to fight in front of the large group of Monstersthey couldnt move.
Listening to Alice, Rex, Tina, Krul and Palna understood the other Adventurers pain. They themselves shared the same feelings, in no small amount.
But you see, I realized that its useless for everyone to be afraid, after seeing Kagami-san and Krul-sans group fighting without giving up. They said that, surely, they could do something as well. They received courage from seeing Kagami-sans group, you know.
Alices words left a deep impression on Krul. Certainly, she had believed that the Adventurers would try to assist them once they saw her party, but this was originally Kagamis achievement. They decided to move because it was impossible for Kagami to fight by himself. After seeing their appearance, Salumerias Adventurers had gathered together to face off against the Monsters.
One person. Just one normal Villager, whose will should have been smashed to bits in this hopeless situation. Unable to suppress her hearts excitement for the current development, Krul revealed a smile.
It wouldnt change the fact that it was a dangerous situation, but she couldnt help thinking that this was really amazing. She hadnt read any such epics in the Arcasia Kingdom archives within the castle. One person, by challenging 10,000 Monsters, moved the hearts of thousands of AdventurersIt wasnt a Hero, just a normal Villager. There hadnt been any humans in the past that had done something so unbelievable.
Without a doubt, this event would be passed down as a legend. Being able to witness such a legend unfold before her, she couldnt help but feel excited.
Rex had the same thoughts as well. Although he felt the same, he was also quite jealous. His jealousy made him feel regretful, but he respected Kagami from the bottom of his heart. If someone asked if he could accomplish the same, he could only answer no.
Fufufufuhahahaha! InterestingThis Villager is really interesting! Since that is the case, show it to me, the unimaginable conclusion from your struggles in this battle!
Rex and the others, who had exhausted their bodies, felt their strength return. It was a revitalizing medicine in this hopeless situation that they had believed would end them. Their hearts couldnt help but tremble as they were invited to participate in this legendary fight.
Yoshwell then, shall we do our best? Tch, in front of me isAlice! Get away from here, its dangerous!
Yes, I understand, Kagami-san. Im really sorry? No matter what, I wanted Kagami-san to be happy when I told you this.
At her words, Kagami struck Alices head with a pon and muttered, Dont worry about it, to her, and then urged her to pass through the hole that was opened up in the stone wall behind them. At that moment,
It wasnt me that created an opportunity that allowed the other Adventurers to fight, but Alice. The one who is the most amazing isAlice, who prioritized their desire to help and brought along these Adventurers, despite being a Demon. It was you!
As he said this, Kagami smiled at Alice. She yelled back, Yeah!, and happily rushed along to the hole in the stone wall as moisture appeared in her eyes. After confirming that Alice had gone back behind the stone wall, Kagamis expression stiffened, and he turned towards the Monsters that were still spread out before him.
Change of plansLets aim to win! Lets go all out against them!
Theres no need to say that!
While Kagami was yelling that, Rex quickly finished off the enemies in front of him with his sword and rushed out ahead of Kagami. Krul and Palna continued to fire off Wide Area Annihilation Magic at the Monsters before them as well.
GeezIf I had thought about how those spirited fellows might have become my enemies in the near future, I would have become dispiritedWell, besides that, Im just serving Demon King-sama and Alice-sama!
Menou-chan! Since Kagami-chan is bringing out his full power, cooperate with the other adventurers and protect Rexs group! Kagami-chan! Were fine over here, so have at it as you like!
As this was said, Menou gave Kagami a thumbs up, and Takako blew a kiss at Kagami. Kagami raised his voice with a Yoshaa!, firing him up as he endured the overwhelmingly powerful attacks, and when his reserved power explosively broke out, he instantly closed in on the Cyclops that stood in front of him.
Kagami then firmly grasped the Cyclops leg like he would grab a log and dispatched Monsters by swinging the Cyclops around like a weapon. He stylishly flung it while forging onward, annihilating several Monsters at once.
UOOOOOOOOOOH
A lot of the adventurers who saw this scene were dumbfounded, and after seeing Kagami dispatch the Monsters using the Cyclops, they let out a splendid war cry to raise their morale.
Lets go, we will win! What the hell is that guyHes too amazing! He looks like a Monster, no matter how you look at it!
Either way, its fine! He has always been fighting for us! Our pride as knights would be done for if we dont repay our debt! Dont fall behind!
There were those who brandished their longswords, those who began casting spells, and those who drew their bows powerfully, but like Kagami, they all forged onwards and began to fight higher leveled Monsters than them. Those who were there didnt really think about whether they were weaker than their opponents; they just had their feelings of wanting to protect this city, and believed that it might be possible if they backed this man. With a cry, they clashed with the Monsters.
FollowMEEEEEEE!
As for Kagami, such a sensation was a first for him. All of them were united by this one purpose and fought against the Monsters. It was difficult to push aside the fear brought on by the limiting concept of Levels, and a large number of people struggled to push aside thoughts of how it was a reckless and impossible challenge. Kagami couldnt help but feel that these new possibilities would change these people.
Kagami didnt have any doubts at that moment. Even if there were high leveled Monsters in front of him, he would surely win somehow. The people who had come here on his behalf would surely stand against the Monsters, just like him, and would succeed somehow. Kagami believed this, so he cast away his guard and forced his way through the middle of the group of Monsters.
A path leading through the Monsters was created, like a giant cannonball had passed through, revealing the dry ground of the wasteland.
The created path was immediately closed off by the other Monsters. Although the Adventurers werent able to see Kagami clearly, they immediately understood that he was struggling greatly against the Monsters. Meanwhile, Monsters were being blown out of the center and into the sky, one by one.
Nobody thought that it was useless to continue on like this, and decided to try and do the best that they could do.
