Chapter 45
*Unedited. This was translated really late because I wasted the entirety of today trying to fix an internet problem for my newly bought desktop -.- Unless I decide to spend a lot more time trying to fix it tomorrow as well, I should be able to normally release it on time tomorrow. *Sigh* I just took the opportunity to buy a new one since my current one is old and there's a steam summer sale, but ughhhh the stress is getting to me. All I wanted to do was to buy and play some Atelier Sophie… Thanks for reading~
The prey I had been tired of waiting for has finally come. The troops lead by the younger sister princess… Norn Kuratalissa Dioral had arrived at the town. I use【Transformation Heal】to learn presence interception and mana interception out of the stock of abilities I had gained from【Imitation Heal】and move to a place that's around one kilometer distant from here. I find a tall building. Kicking down the wall, I enter and ascend to the roof. Furthermore, I activate my【Jade Eyes】to strengthen my [force of mortality], erase my presence and examine the situation from far away. Even from this distance, I can even see each person's expression with jade eyes.
As for the soldier's, they amount to around a thousand. What I'm most surprised at is.
"What strength. I guess this means that princess Norn is serious." (Kearuga)
Although it's a thousand man battalion, there are an unbelievable amount of high level people. I understand everything after seeing the symbol engraved on their armour. They are the honoured holy lance chivalric order. An elite chivalric order that is part of the Dioral Kingdom's top five.
They are taking quite drastic actions to send the holy lance chivalric order away from the Dioral Kingdom just to destroy one town. Breaking through from the front like I've done with all the small fry until now will be extremely difficult. Even for me, I'm certain that I would just have the tables turned on me if I plunged into the holy lance chivalric order without a plan. I'll need to coordinate if I'm aiming for the younger sister princess. (TL Note: 妹姫を狙うなら絡めてがいる。)
"… Rather, I could just snipe from here huh." (Kearuga)
The younger sister princess hasn't shown her face, but a carriage with the crest of the royal family engraved on it is running while being protected by the chivalric order. There's a high chance that the younger sister princess is inside there. By combining multiple abilities and using the old sword I was just about to throw away as a shot, long distance fire is possible. With that power, it can send the carriage itself flying. … No, I shouldn't. If I do that, they will force it to be the demons' actions and it'll just create an excuse to destroy this town. Besides, princess Norn still hasn't done anything to make me resent her in this world. Taking revenge in this state would go against my aesthetics.
In the first place, the fact that they imposingly entered the town like this means that at least for now, they have been called as customers and have been received by this town. If it's princess Norn, she'll probably just try to forcibly make an excuse to attack no matter what she has to do, but I'm not going to help her out on her job. (TL Note: やつの仕事を手伝ってやることもない)
My heart makes a loud and unpleasant beat. My heart doesn't stop beating. Even sweat is coming out. Within the knight's rank, there's an incredible guy there.
To think he would be in this sort of place. I had planned on searching for him and taking revenge, but it was outside of my expectations to see him come here.
Bright red fills my vision.
"Are you serious." (Kearuga)
Even though we are one kilometer apart, he noticed my leaking blood l.u.s.t and that man's deep crimson pupils perceived me. Is it possible to realize my leaking blood l.u.s.t from this distance? That monster. In a hurry, I jump down from the roof.
"Haha, so even【Hawk Eye】-sama who is among the three great men has come as well." (Kearuga)
In the Dioral Kingdom, overwhelmingly strong people are granted an alias. For example, 【Sword Saint】or【Bow G.o.d】. Even among the strong people who were granted an alias, there exist three people that are even stronger than the rest. They are exactly what the three great men are.【Hawk Eye】is one of them. Even the【Sword Saint】Kureha Claylet hasn't reached the three great men. From just that, you can understand how much of an absurd existence they are. In her case, I can understand that she's too young, lacks experience and lacks achievements, but at the very least, I need to challenge him while thinking that he's the same, if not stronger than Kureha. With his existence, the younger sister princess's attack difficulty level has sprung up.
"s.h.i.+t, I'm an idiot." (Kearuga)
To think my killing intent would leak during my reconnaissance. Normally, it should be impossible to notice it, and it's just that【Hawk Eye】is abnormal. However, a mistake is a mistake. Because of this mistake,【Hawk Eye】's caution will probably increase.
"s.h.i.+t, of course there's no way I could hold my emotions down. He was just before my eyes." (Kearuga)
The reason why I felt shaken is because the person I found within the knights was the hero of the sword. At a glance, he's a handsome young man wearing splendid armour. However, his real ident.i.ty is an extreme man-hating woman. While hating men, she takes the appearance of a man like that to draw in women. (TL Note: Note that Hawk Eye and the hero of the sword is different, and he directly his blood l.u.s.t towards the hero of the sword,, which Hawk Eye just happened to notice.)
In the first world, that woman was engrossed with Flare. But that Flare was attached to that dog-like me because she loved tormenting me. Without being able to take that, she felt jealous, and I was continuously given extreme abuse. Punching and kicking was obvious… but she trampled on my dignity as a man to the utmost limits.
When I look at her, my body shudders. It's fear. Even now, the pain and humiliation she engraved onto me is bound to my heart. I should have been reborn. Throwing away the straightforward, kind and weak Kearu, and reborn to Kearuga, who is stronger than anyone. Even then, I am still miserably feeling afraid right now. As if I can permit such things. Unless I kill her, I can't move forward.
… I have to kill her, no matter what methods I use. I can't settle it with just killing her. Unless it's such a powerful revenge that it can dispel her curse, I won't be freed from her curse.
"I wonder how I should drop that d.a.m.n lesbian to h.e.l.l." (Kearuga)
I'll do plenty more things that that d.a.m.n lesbian will hate until she pleads me to kill her. For that reason, I need to first make a revenge motive, which is unexpectedly simple. No matter what situation she's in, that d.a.m.n lesbian will always look for women when she comes to a town. I just have to provide her with a valuable woman, and with that, my revenge motive will be made.
There are phases to that d.a.m.n lesbian making a woman hers, and the first phase is to normally seduce them while disguising herself as a handsome young man. If she succeeds at that, she'll carry that person home, expose the fact that she's a woman on the bed, and even if they try to resist at that phase, she forcibly makes them hers.
The second phase, if she fails at seducing them. In that situation, she'll overlook them if they aren't her type, but if by any chance that person is her type, she forcibly kidnaps that person, takes that person to her room and rapes that person. She's such a low-life that she would even borrow the power of drugs. She always carries dangerous drugs with her to distort the minds of the people that hate it, so that she can try and obtain them. Whether they have a lover or a child, it doesn't matter. She just takes things because she wants it. Anything other than that is of no interest to her.
She's a genuine lesbian. She absolutely does not think about the feelings of the person being trampled on, and since she doesn't comprehend the obvious fact that people apart from her have a heart, she is able to ignore everything apart from her feeling good. I don't know any psychopaths as stereotypical as she is.
"I guess I should use Setsuna and Eve as bait." (Kearuga)
If it's that crazy psycho lesbian, she will be able to see that Freya is Flare, even though she had her appearance and even personality changed, so I can't use her as bait. Originally, I would use Freya, who I don't mind if she breaks, for these sorts of dangerous thing, but I can't bear the risks.
I have no choice but to use Setsuna and Eve who cannot be subst.i.tuted. They are extremely beautiful girls, so if they appear in front of her, she will unmistakably take the bait. However, although it is for revenge, is it fine to expose Setsuna and Eve to danger? I don't want Setsuna and Eve to be injured; that would be unbelievably unpleasant. It just means that I have become that attached to them. What should I do…
While I was contemplating, it seems the knight group had reached the feudal lord's building, which is in the center of the city. At the very least, I can't reel in that crazy psycho lesbian today. I'll decide what I will do within today. However, one thing I can say, is that because I've seen her, there's no way I would just let her live. That's all. Today, they shouldn't be taking any actions, so it's meaningless to stay here any longer. While holding down my dark emotions, I disappeared into the darkness. I should renew my emotions. For now, I'll be having the business discussion with the merchant I met at noon.
