67-Episode 63: Because I'M A Friend



\'\'........Nekomiya, how far do you think this is going?\'\'

I\'d say until we\'re out to sea, but that\'s about it. At least as far as my ears and nose are concerned, it can\'t be that far away.

Having said that, I\'ve taken into consideration turning back if the distance I\'m walking is too long.

I succeeded in defeating the Suzagihara, but that shouldn\'t be the case if the situation is good. Nekomiya and the others don\'t know how the attack on the heavy duty branch school by five vampires is unfolding. The same is true of Ryuzaki\'s discussions. As for the former, aside from the latter, they have to find proof that he is a vampire at the Akagihara hideout.

Currently, the most effective thing to do is still the bones of the child piled up high. Why he left the bones alone without disposing of them is not clear, but the fact that the Tokihara hid them in the basement will have to convince the islanders.

It was around this time that we had walked for a while.

\'Nekomiya, a passionate light.

The hot-blooded adolescent Hanuman Sarutaku Fuuta, who had made a mistake somewhere, described the light coming from ahead with a mysterious adjective.

\'Looks like we\'re finally going to get to the point where it leads outside.

The sound of the waves is getting clearer.

The gait of the pathway, which meanders along a wobbly, meandering pathway, becomes a little stronger. It was intricate, but I could say that it was well fortunate that it was a single path.

The sunshine, the sound of the waves, and the smell of the tide.

The three of them soon found themselves in a slightly open area. Just as Nekomiya had predicted, it was the entrance to a cave. Most of the plaza is filled with seawater, and it seems that the structure is designed to allow you to get out of the cave by walking further up the sea. Perhaps this is a side hole in the sheer cliffs. The south side of Delph Island seemed to be a slightly higher cliff, Nekomiya remembered.

Barnacles and seaweed clung to the walls of the cave, indicating that the water would be a bit higher at high tide. The short passageway to get out of the plaza itself is likely to fill with water and close at high tide.

Well, if that was all it was, it was still good.

The foreign object that jumped out at the three men\'s eyes was a single vessel placed in the land portion of the cave.

\'Is this a cruiser?\'

Yeah.

It was a large, engine-powered yacht, very different from the traditional fishing canoes of Albadamba. The floor of the cave was lined with rubber boro to prevent damage to the bottom of the boat when it was landed.

\'I don\'t know the details, but it looks like it\'s been well cared for,\'

We don\'t leave them here all the time, do we?

\'And there\'s a large area of coro laid out. Maybe a few more cruisers themselves.

As Nekomiya pointed out. Sarutoyo and Kagoi pondered.

\'\'Then the rest of the cruisers........\'\'

My guess is that the Albadamba itself is a way station for the Bloods to travel. The sea is travelled in cruisers and... oh, look at this. There\'s plenty of gasoline. No, is that diesel fuel?

Unopened cans are piled high on the side.

\'How can a cruiser go that far?\'

\'Well? Maybe you can ask Harao or Hakoinori to find out. They\'re so rich, they\'ve got a boat or two.

But what the hell...

Saruwatari crossed his arms and compared the pile of cans and the cruiser in turn.

\'\'It\'s not fair that you can alternate between your original world and this one.

That\'s it.

Nekomiya was more dismayed than frustrated.

A large number of "tools of the original world" were seized from the old castle that Knight and Bishop used as a base. Although most of them are game consoles, televisions and generators, the large amount of cooking utensils delighted Sugiura, and they were also surprised to find a weekly magazine that had been released just recently---after being transferred to this world.

The bloodline is able to move between worlds quite often and with a whim. That in itself is even gospel, but in any case, the Nekomiya cannot just "return to the original world". In order to return to the original world, they must return to their human form as well, so to speak, that is also \'unfair\'.

"Well, I\'d like to keep this light oil. There might be some use for it.

It\'s a total robbery what we\'re doing.

It was during this lukewarm conversation. Sarutoyo looked up with a gasp.

\'\'The wind is calling........

What........what?

Sarutoyo jumped up and down as he hugged Nekomiya\'s body. Immediately after, something like a black lightbulb exploded on the floor of the cave.

\'\'Whoa, what the hell!

Enemy!

I know that! Saruwatari! For the record, that\'s my ass!

That\'s what you do when you hold a cat in your arms!

I\'m a cat, but I\'m a girl!

Come on, you two, be serious.

Kagoi, a muzzled gargoyle, stifles her voice as she glances at the two men.

It\'s a rather tense exchange, but it\'s true that there\'s been an enemy attack, and the three of them turn their gazes in the same direction. Kagoi was the first to step forward when she saw a single shadow jump in vigorously from the outside of the cave. With the body of a gargoyle with excellent defensive abilities, he catches it like a bullet from the front.

But

Ugh....

Even that Kagoi was so shocked that even she could not help but let out a cry of anguish. The attacker raised his fist even more and struck down that Kagoi from the front.

\'\'Blood tribe...! Pawn!

Nekomiya speaks up. A red-eyed man in black armor. Definitely a vampire.

I had assumed that all five of them were headed for the heavy cruiser, so I hadn\'t considered encountering them here. Not good, he thought, but he quickly checked the large wound that had been opened in his chest. That blood relative was wounded.

Slightly obese and middle-aged. Not a very flashy looking individual, but he has a familiar face. However, rather than tracing the threads of his memory, Nekomiya was thinking about what to do about the situation first. Sarutoyo also took out a long metal cudgel and held it up like a bat.

\'\'Move!

The blood man shouted.

\'Get out of here and we\'ll let you go! Now move!

.........

Nekomiya thinks. If the opponent had said that while unharmed, or without raising his voice at all, Nekomiya might have retreated honestly. This is because it would be impossible to talk about fighting a pawn head-on and getting killed or taken away in a whisper.

But the situation was different.

The pawn in front of me is wounded. And he\'s clearly in a hurry to do something.

Considering that he came all the way into this cave from out of the sea, this pawn\'s aim is undoubtedly a cruiser. And this impatience. The pawn doesn\'t have the time to spare just to kick the Nekomiya and the others around with their abilities.

No matter how much they are wounded, if you look at their ability to easily beat down Kagoi earlier, their superiority in terms of combat ability is tilted in their favor. Even so, this pawn is sparing no effort in the use of his abilities. He wants to use his cruiser to escape as soon as possible. If they don\'t escape, they will be at a fatal disadvantage.

Then we must do what we have to do.

Saruwatari!

Tears in your eyes as you say, "We\'ve been waiting for you!

With a bare swipe of the cudgel, Sarutoyo pounces on the pawn.

\'\'d*mn........!

Pawn clenches his fist and tries to strike Sarutoyo, but Kagoi interrupts him.

The black armor-covered fist strikes Kagoi\'s skin, which is made of ore, but it can\'t even crack, let alone pierce it. Just in the nick of time, Sarutoyo\'s swinging cudgel struck the pawn\'s face.

\'\'【Kagakata Blade (Shadow Square)!

Nekomiya also cuts out his own shadow and fires it into a blade shape.

Roar, teenage magic ball!

Sarutoyo created a ball that stirred up the wind during the long dwell time.

\'\'Gale and Sturdy Bullet (Brass Blaster)!

However, the pawn threw Kagoi\'s body away with force and drowned out both the shadow blade and the wind bullet with his gauntlet-covered right arm.

The power of that armor was terrifying. Nekomiya bit his teeth. There was no information at the moment that a magical attack had penetrated that thing. The physical defenses were also considerable, but reports existed that it was successfully smashed through by a pressurized stream cross.

Would it be possible to buy time with a magical attack? This was when Nekomiya was about to start his second chant.

\'\'I\'ve found it!

A splash of water splashed and another shadow jumped out of the water.

\'\'Ah...!

"The black energy body released by the King catches Sakuma\'s body. A burning pain runs through his entire body, and he throws himself onto the grass-filled ground. "The King" looked at Harui, crucified by the crest, and Sakuma, who was lying on the ground, and sniffed.

Beni\'s body begins to walk through the jungle, dragging his whole body. It\'s not just a matter of time before you\'ll be able to get your hands on it.

If you chase it, you can catch up with it.

We can\'t stay down here.

Sakuma grabbed the grass and managed to get up, crawling on the ground.

Sakuma wasn\'t the only one struggling to move.

\'\'Kutu.........S......!

Harui, too, is biting his teeth, trying to tear himself away from his crucifixion to the crest.

It\'s been quite some time now. The fishermen may have succeeded in destroying the ship. There may be no need to keep the King around any longer. But even so, Sakuma did not want to sleep here. I\'m sure Harui feels the same way.

You\'re not going to be able to get your hands on any of them.

\'\'U-ahhh...!

Harui finally succeeded in tearing off the restraints of the crest with force. As it was, she flapped her wings in a single flap, creating a whirlwind of whirlwind.

\'\'Asuka........sorry.......!

Apologies to my friend\'s body. At the same time, the whirlwind shredded the dense branches of the trees in the jungle as it headed towards the "King". Without turning around, the "King" stuck out his right arm and crushed the whirlwind.

Benii Asuka\'s vacant face looks back at you.

\'\'I didn\'t think you could move yet.

The rage in his voice that had been in his voice earlier had completely disappeared.

\'\'How can you wield that much power?\'\'

Of course it\'s because Asuka\'s my friend!

Harui bared his teeth and threatened her, but the "King" sneered at her.

"At least, I\'m sure none of the kids she was talking about were like you.

Harui\'s expression froze. As if to say, I didn\'t want to hear it.

\'Asuka is a queen. The position was promised to her from birth. She also had a talent for attracting people and making them samurai. I guess you\'re not the only one who thought of her as a friend.

Harui-san, don\'t listen!

Sakuma shouted.

Beni\'s body was nearing its limit by now. "The King intends to neutralize Harui without using his power as a vampire. By shaking the preconditions, he is trying to discourage the source of the power he is wielding. Harui also bit his lip and opened his eyes, as if it was a fact that he was aware of in his heart.

\'That Sachi over there might indeed be a friend. That\'s what Asuka herself said, you know. But you\'re not. You are a moth gathered around a guide light, so to speak. You can\'t be an equal \'friend\' to Asuka.

Harui should not have to listen to them either. But the girls can\'t split up enough to just appeal to the power of the other person\'s words with their ears closed. When confronted with the fact that he wanted to look away, Harui\'s body trembled a little.

\'\'Harui-sa........\'\'

Ruse...

Harui let out a voice that sounded like a roar from the depths of the earth.

Is it directed at Sakuma, or is it directed at the "king"? The air around you begins to clatter as anger seeps into Harui\'s voice. The trees creaked and the leaves began to sway.

I don\'t care what kind of a man that is. Asuka is my friend........!

While letting out a distressed voice, Harui Yuka nevertheless tells you clearly.

Perhaps the words of the "king" are objectively correct. Harui Yuka and Snakezuka Rami have always been perceived as cronies of Benii Asuka. Cronies are only cronies (side kicks). They can\'t be equals with the Queen (Queen Bee) and everyone in the class subconsciously looked at Harui and the others as beneath Beni.

\'You don\'t understand. I told you. Asuka is.........

Like you!

Before he could finish, Harui shouted more. The wind picked up momentum.

\'\'Don\'t let someone like you call Asuka\'s name so casually!

What...?

"Asuka is my friend! I don\'t want to be your friend because I want your friendship! I won\'t let you take that guy away from me, even if he\'s smug!

The buzzing trees spoke eloquently of Harui Yuka\'s uncontrollable state of mind. Harui took a step or two forward, then shouted even more loudly.

\'\'Asuka! Hey, I know you can hear me, Asuka! I\'m not giving up on you! Even if Asuka is more trustworthy to Sakuma, Kaoruko and Utsurogi, me and Snakeshizuka will always be friends!

You\'re grating on me!

Asuka!

Harui shouted.

\'Asuka-chan!

Sakuma also shouted.

Beni Asuka\'s body stopped there for a moment. She held her head with one hand and the expression on her face was twisted in anguish. It was the face of Beni himself. There is no intervention of that evil will.

\'\'Harui........Sachi.......\'\'

Asuka!

Beni Asuka\'s consciousness returns. That slight moment.

Benii\'s pleading gaze turned to Sakuma.

Sakuma nodded. If you want to use your powers, this is the only place to use them.

The succubus\' race ability is 《Saturation》. It suppresses one of the opponent\'s free wills and half-heartedly plants a favor for him. In other words, it\'s essentially no different from the remote control that the "King" was exercising now.

It\'s as if they were shown a mirror. Sakuma Shoko understands the horror and ugliness of that act. And even more so, that she would use it on her feelings and best friend.

Still, she had no choice but to do it.

I\'ve never seen Benii Asuka\'s face with such a painful look on it. Sakuma turned his gaze to Benii and put his strength into it. Benii reached out to Sakuma and Harui, as if to ask for help. Sakuma responded with his hand and Harui responded with his wings.

The 《Enchantment》 is activated, and Sakuma\'s heart slips into Benii\'s mind. There was no sense of refusal. At the moment when Benai was about to make an expression of relief, the moment.

\'\'Ah........\'\'

Beni\'s expression changed and Sakuma\'s mind was thrust away. The force that suddenly entered from the side, forcibly took control from Sakuma. After the agony, he went into emptiness again.

Beni Asuka\'s mind is taken back.

\'\'Asuka!\'\'

It\'s useless.

In a somewhat mortified voice, the \'King\' murmurs.

I\'m afraid I underestimated your mindset a little too much. I didn\'t expect you to bewitch me at the drop of a hat. But it seems that my control is better than yours.

Sakuma bit his lip. Was it because of his hesitation that he was sidestepped in control? But Sakuma, who had never used 《Saturation》 before, didn\'t know how to add or subtract.

Still, I never think that all is lost.

Even Harui hasn\'t given up. It\'s not that I don\'t like the idea of competing, but I have no intention of making my friendship with Benii inferior to that of Harui. It\'s a good thing that the two of you are able to keep the "king" at bay. I\'m going to bet on it, so I thought I had insurance.

And it seems that we made it just in time.

"Hah! Seiyaaaaah!

As if passing through the trees, a fiery demon swooped down towards Benii.

\'\'Wha...!

Beni\'s body barely escapes a direct hit, but a sharp blow scrapes his shoulder area.

The demon who landed on the ground took a Jeet Kune Do stance with wariness all over his body.

The demon said.

\'\'Are you hurt, Sakuma, Harui?

"Utsurogi-kun! Hino-kun!

Me too.

Blue, translucent flesh stuck to the demon\'s right arm area, and he waved his hand.
