Chapter 52. Former hero・even further down



Chapter 52. Former hero?even further down

20 floors underground.

Judging from the talk heard before and the reaction of search, there are still people who remain in this floor.

People appeared after advancing in the direction of reaction in a dark passage.

There are 3 people.

2 of them are squatting down, completely exhausted.

Another person is fighting something similar to that machine I saw in the upper floor.

“The person over there! Fall back!”

That person in combat shouted out while closing the distance, drawing his sword and cutting the mechanical monster up.

Making a crackling sound, that mechanical monster stops moving.

The surrounding was verified, and there were no signs of other demons for the time being.

It’s safe for now.

“Are you okay? I came to help.”

I called out to the person who fought.

“Y, Yea…..I, I’m helped. Thanks.

But, you are……? That uniform……? Did you come back?”

That person states his gratitude and doubt.

Ah, come to think of it, I was still wearing the robe of the uniform.

However, I did not cover my face.although it’s dim.

I thought that he would have roughly memorized the faces of the students, but it seems like it was a person who had not grasp the faces of the students.

Is the person the marquis by any chance?

When I look at the face again, it’s rather amazing.

It’s a gorilla.

Thick eyebrows.

Scraggy skin.

A huge nose.

It doesn’t look like Pig frog.

They don’t look alike, but they are similar in a sense.

“I am not a student. Actuallyーー”

I briefly explained the sequence of events coming to here.

“I see. Her royal highness princess Rithina huh.

We end up missing each other.

Are you a servant of Princess Rithina?

I am the lord of Cordato territory, Marquis Dyrandal?Zon?Cordato.”

Dy, Dyrandal!?

C, Cool~!

No, I don’t know what is cool exactly.

And, is this person the marquis after all?

“I came with Her highness Princess Rithina, I am Amagi Haruto.

However, your highness. Leaving that aside now, it’s treatment”

“Yes! That’s right.”

Saying so, the marquis starts checking the injury of the 2 people who had collapsed.

Blood is flowing from his arm even for himself.

He seems like a good person.

I take out the emergency tools on hand and treat them too.

But, these 2 people are adults. They are probably the teacher.

In that case, it isn’t the genius magician who remained behind together.

As for the thing of him being not there, does it mean that I was too late?

“Haruto-don……..Nn? What is your family name?”

The marquis was speaking to me who was performing treatment, but was caught on a trivial matter.

Well, my family name was given previously, it isn’t something heard much in this world.

“Amagi is my family name. So, what is it?”

“Is that so? I am impolite.

Amagi dono. I will treat these people.

There is a student still acting as a decoy inside.

Will Amagi-dono head there to help him?”

A student.

That is of course, the matter of the said genius.

Still acting as a decoy inside?

I see.

Then, I had better hurry.

“I got it.

Your highness. Well, you have the map of this area right?”

“Map? Ah, yes, I have it.”

“Is that so? Then, I will go inside to help myself, but your highness, please give priority to escape with these 2 people.

Since we will give priority to escaping ourselves too.”

“Does Amagi-dono have a map?”

“Yes. There is no need to worry.”

However, I don’t exactly have it.

Obtaining the agreement of the marquis, I handed over the food.

I also replenished the water canteen they had with water.

“You, are you a magician? And furthermore, chantless……?

And with the fact of you coming until here alone, Her highness princess Rithina is taken by a capable person.”

Oh.

Although I didn’t aim for it, I was somewhat admired.

Seem that I am able to expect a good feeling when talking later with this.

In the end, although I was a little displeased that Rithina’s motive is conveyed, there is no complaint if it turns out for the better.

When the marquis finished the first medical treatment, I was able to prepare too.

“Then, I’ll be going.

Everyone, take care too.”

“I am saved. I’ll entrust what’s left to you.”

Receiving the words of the marquis, I started running towards even further in.

I ran in the labyrinth while using search.

Demons of labyrinth and mechanical monsters appear along the way.

I didn’t defeat the the demons of the labyrinth in a blow.

Because if I defeat them untactfully, they may appear anew at the marquis’s side.

I think it should be fine to incapacitate them.

On the contrary, I defeat the machines immediately.

Because these guys don’t disappear, they should be unrelated to the magical power circulation of the labyrinth.

Moreover, they attack the demons of the labyrinth too.

Leaving them alone, they will go around killing the demons I had incapacitate with great efforts

It would be pointless if that happens.

I move without leaving any one undefeated.

And advancing in this way, I heard fighting sound from the front after a while.

Even magic is confirmed.

It’s probably the student who stayed behind.

I do not know if it was possible to take a break on the way.

If he had been moving ever since the problem arose, it’s likely that he has already been fighting continuously for one or more day.

No matter how I think about it, he would have exceeded his limit.

I turn the corner of the passage.

I saw it!

A space opened up beyond the passage, and the back of a gigantic golem.

And even more in that way, was the figure of a person who was wearing a tattered black robe.

That is already merely the scene of just running away from the attacks of the golem rather than a battle.

Even if a single blow couldn’t be avoided, then it would be like the end of a death game.

Whatever that is done, that ending was just a matter of time.

It would be impossible to shake the golem off and escape safely.

And thinking of that, that exact moment arrived.

That student staggered, and tumbled down in a tangle.

And towards there, the fist of the golem is swung down without a moment’s delay.

The match was decided.

It seems that the reason was not because he couldn’t fight it directly.

But, that genius magician achieved his purpose.

Continuing to move for beyond a whole day, he gained enough time to let the other people escape.

And, I was in time.

Then, if I do not overturn the scene in front of my eyes, there would be no meaning for me to come here.

This match, it’s the golem’s loss.

“Air bullet!”

A magic that sets off compressed air of the surrounding.

Air is practically everywhere.

Being able to use it in any place, it’s a magic with a high general purpose.

The compressed air shoots out forcefully.

And at that exact moment mentioned, it hits that arm directly.

Although it didn’t destroy it, the trajectory of that arm was shifted due to the impact.

With the unexpected impact from the side, the golem staggers.

In that interval, 2, 3 rounds of air bullet was driven in.

Probably due to the impact being close to the head, the golem tilts further.

4 shots!

At the same time as I shot the fourth shot, I reached the student at last.

I carried the befuddled student in that state.

And at the side, the golem fell over completely.

In the time that the golem took to get up, I ran to the interior holding the student like that.

Actually, I wanted to return the way I came by just now.

If I do so, I might be able to shake the golem off.

But I advanced to the interior location.

Well, either way, it can’t be helped because I must defeat that golem.

I put down the student I held after moving to a slightly remote spot.

“Oi, are you all right? I came to help. Do you understand?”

I shake the body of that fellow who was still a little stupefied.

“…..Ah. Y, Yes! I, I’m rescued.”

That fellow who regained his consciousness takes off his hood and reacts.

Although his skin is a little dirty, but still, fair skin and golden hair. A crystal clear voice.

And, long ears that peeks through from the hair.

Is it an elf?

And moreover, he is pretty cute.

“wait, is it a girl? Despite being a girl, you held on well.”

First of all, I praised her perseverance.

Actually, it’s extremely persistent even if it’s a guy or a girl.

“Ehh!? Uhhh, m, me, such a thing……” (TN: She/he used boku, the male form of I)

Nn?

Boku?

Eh, a guy?

Seriously?

With this face?

And that voice?

No way, the elf is amazing.

“Ah, Aah, sorry. Are you a guy? I thought you were a girl because you are somewhat cute.”

What is this way of apologizing?

Saying whatever by myself, and still apologizing for mistaking him as a girl because he was cute, I was thought to be someone with that kind of preference, wasn’t I.

“Cute!?……N, No, I’m not like that…….”

As I thought, he’s a little attracted.

All of these, it’s not the situation to be doing a stupid thing.

It seems that the golem got up behind me.

I leave my baggage with the genius elf magician and stood up.

The golem just stood up and faces me too.

And, I spoke with my back.

“Leave the rest to me. I’ll defeat that fellow.

You can take a rest there.”

“Eeh? D, Defeat that fellow? Onii-san alone?”

O, Onii-san, if that’s the case?

Although I had talked with my back expressly, I turned around.

The elf was addressing me with that round and cute eyes.

Because he/she is sitting down, inevitably, it’s with upturned eyes.

Dangerous, a weird preference was awaken.

Regrettable, regrettable, regrettable.

That way is no good.

I search for self control in my heart.

Wait, because this isn’t the situation to be doing stupid things.

Setting the elf youth aside, I shorten the distance towards the golem.

The golem is huge.

It’s larger than the meteor fellow, Gaulband.

As it has some width too, it’s unlikely for me to slip through the gap if I’m in the passage.

Something similar to an armor is covering that huge body, and there is a design resembling the mechanical monsters.

This fellow is probably the big boss, and might be controlling those mechanical monsters.

Well, such a thing is for later.

I draw close until right in front of the golem.

The golem stretches out its hands to grip me.

That movement is so fast that I can’t imagine it coming from that huge body.

But I intersect it, and cut that arm.

[Span], making an interesting sound, the arm of the golem was severed.

As expected of the holy silver sword.

It’s not a magical efficiency that can be bettered easily by one made with iron.

It doesn’t reach the standard where it’s similar to cutting tofu, but I cut it off easily.

After that, the golem attacks me with a strange movement that is impossible for living beings, and loses each part used to attack me each time.

And it fell to a state of a daruma just like that.

“W, Wow. Even though my magic had no effect at all……”

The genius magician gave a voice of admiration from the back.

Fufufu. I thought you would say that?

Even though things may appear this way, I am a former hero that has defeated the demon king you know?

And, a piercing sound echoes when I was going to cut the body right into two with a finishing blow.

BIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!

Aaargh, it’s noisy!

The sound echoes terribly.

I was surprised, but it isn’t to the extent that I can’t fight.

But, there is some kind of unrest.

I ignore it and quickly give a finishing blow.

When I was thinking that, the golem exploded..

That’s self destruction.

This stupid golem!

What kind of situation is this!?

I turn on my heels and hurriedly ran to the elf youth’s position.

But, I was a step late.

The golem, with the floor of the labyrinth in the surrounding area and us unwillingly, disappeared in the explosion.
