Volume 5, Chapter 9 - Gomikuzu Neetu reincarnated in another world, but he was still a bum!
(This is the continuation of Volume 4, Chapter 18)
Jolt and his friends were riding their horses as fast as they could.
They were running as fast as they could and not thinking about the horses.
Even if they didn’t go that far, the boy would not attack them. Even though I knew that, I couldn’t stay there.
Darien was dead.
And he committed suicide.
I don’t know what happened, but I’m sure it wasn’t anything out of the ordinary, and since I was told to leave immediately, I couldn’t just sit back and relax.
“What the hell was that? Why is Master Darien dying?”
“I’ve heard of it! I’ve heard that when Darien is on the verge of death, he can travel through time and space to the past!”
“So you’re saying that Darien will come back to save us?”
“Is that so, Jolt?”
Everyone clung to Jolt, the vice commander.
Each of them must be an owner of immense power, but they have been too dependent on Darien for too long. They have forgotten how to use it.
“No, Master Darien’s power is not like that…”
I can only speculate based on what he has said and done so far, but Darien’s power to return to the past is something that is activated after death, and is a last resort when there is nothing else to do.
It sends something like a soul back to the past, and the alteration of the past does not affect the present in any way. It’s merely a branching of a parallel world from a certain point in time.
Darien himself may be able to start over with it, but it has nothing to do with Jolt and the others who are here now.
In other words, Darien has abandoned Jolt and the others and fled.
What Darien did back in the past has nothing to do with what we are doing now!
“Then what the hell are you going to do about it?”
-that’s what I want to hear!
Jolt shouted in his mind.
How could I have let this happen?
His second life should have been going well. If he had stayed by Darien’s side, there wouldn’t have been any problems.
But now Darien was dead.
Everything suddenly became unrecognizable.
It wasn’t like this before. I had been able to take advantage of my reincarnation to get around and become the strongest. However, now that I know that there is someone higher than me, there is no way I can do such a thing innocently.
No matter how hard I try, I know that there are talents that I can’t reach, and that there are powers of fear that I can’t even begin to understand.
If that were the case, I should have just lived a life of his own size and not stretched himself, but he couldn’t do that either.
In the end, Jolt could not change.
His childish human nature, which is always satisfied only when he is in a superior position, was not improved by the reincarnation, and it got worse because of the supernatural powers of the other world.
“It’s okay, it’s okay! We’re still the invincible army! As long as we have the invincible armor made by Darien-sama, we have no enemies!”
“But even so, we’ll still have to face that guy ……”
“That guy! We just have to ignore him, right? We just have to stay away from him!”
It was very convenient, but the group members were beginning to agree with the idea.
They were planning to continue the invincible army even without Darien.
Before they knew it, they had reached the area around the royal capital.
Then, they noticed something unusual.
There was something strange going on around the royal capital.
As they approached, they could see that there was an unusual number of people crowded around the gate.
That alone was unusual enough, but the crowd was in the midst of chaos.
Shouting, screaming, sobbing.
They were running for their lives, shouting in various forms of grief.
“What the hell is this?” “What the hell is this?…”
Jolt and the others didn’t know that something was wrong in the capital.
They were unaware that the demon gods had returned, and the capital had sunk into a sea of flesh.
So, they had no way of knowing that this scene was the result of further despair.
He had no way to see that this was just another nightmare that had befallen him after he had narrowly escaped with his life.
“What are you going to do, Jolt?
“Why are you asking me?”
“Because you’re the second-in-command!”
I was forced to make a decision, but I couldn’t help it because I didn’t even know what was going on.
So, I decided to approach the royal capital to see what was going on first.
It appeared without a sound.
Without any warning, it suddenly stood right in front of Jolt and the others.
A huge four-legged beast.
It was a bloody wolf, so bloody that it looked like a redhead.
In its huge jaws, were several people.
Some of them were dead. Some of them were moaning.
But it didn’t care, it kept moving its jaws up and down. It was chewing and swallowing.
“What the …… is this ……?
It was fear.
It doesn’t matter how strong it is or whether it can compete, the very fact that it eats people is terrifying.
“Don’t falter! We are invincible! We are invincible! No matter how great the monster, it is still just a beast! There’s nothing to be afraid of!
There is nothing to fear!
It’s a big beast that you can look up to, and its power can easily surpass that of a human.
But it was only a beast.
Each of Jolt and the others possessed superb abilities and invincible armor.
A mere demon should have been no match for them.
Why on earth did they show up here? It’s not much of a reason, Jolt intuited.
It was just a monster that devoured what it saw.
The beast finished chewing its prey in its mouth and suddenly disappeared.
Jolt turned around. He could not follow its movements. However, the unmistakable smell of beast and blood told him exactly where the beast was.
The beast had moved behind him, as expected.
And one of his companions had disappeared.
“It’s okay!?It doesn’t hurt at all!?His fangs won’t work against the invincible armor!?Everyone!?Attack it while you still can!
One of my friends, Iris, had her horse eaten by that giant jaw.
The speed of the beast was unbelievable.
However, its fangs were not working on Iris.
If I could nullify itsattack, there would be plenty of ways to do it.
“Leave it to me!?I’ll make the dog realize how scary the Invincible Army is…
And then Iris disappeared.
She was swallowed whole.
No matter how sturdy the armor was, it was meaningless in this situation.
Darien would not have expected such an attack.
“It’s okay, right???I’m sure she’s alive inside!
It was the first time I’ve ever seen such a thing.
I’m not sure what to do. It’s not as if his stomach is moving or a sword is sticking out from inside.
“King Hungry Wolf……
Someone muttered.
That was the name of an invader, Aggressor.
It was the name of an aggressor, an incarnation of tyranny that constantly starved and devoured at random. It was a beast that Rain the Wise had defeated and had since gone silent.
Jolt remembered.
Jolt remembered the reason why the city was covered with strong walls.
He remembered why the city was covered with strong walls, and why they were allowing selfish people like the Wise Rain to do whatever they wanted.
It was all because of the presence of the invaders.
It’s to protect ourselves from the invaders.
In the past, this would not have been possible.
In the past, this would have been impossible, because even if there was some damage, the wise Rain would have shown up immediately to fix the situation.
However, the wise man would not appear here.
Jolt had no way of knowing, but the wise men in this area were dying out.
Darien had said that the half demon was necessary to keep the seal on something.
However, so much damage has been done that no matter who resurrects and rampages now, it doesn’t matter.
The balance of the world had begun to collapse without anyone realizing it.
‘Why …… is this happening, why …… is this happening?’
The Hungry King slowly approaches. He choose Jolt as his next prey.
Jolt closed his eyes.
He couldn’t stand his fear of the hungry wolf king’s jaws slowly approaching.
Jolt trembled as he waited for the final moment.
But no matter how long he waited, the moment never came.
A warm, bloody wind blew slowly.
The Star Wolf King was right there.
And he is waiting for you to open your eyes unbearably.
‘If you’re starving, why don’t you just get on with it and eat!
But the hungry wolf king doesn’t respond.
Unable to bear the fear of not being able to see anything, Jolt opened his eyes.
Two girls with the same face were standing in front of him.
“Yes?
Jolt froze at the sight that he had never imagined.
The Hungry Wolf King was behind the girls, but he had stopped moving like a statue.
“You guys are ……
“I’m Marna!
“I’m Rilna!”
“Together, we are Marna-Lilna!?Yes!”
Then Maruna and Liluna clapped their hands together.
Jolt was dumbfounded.
The air had changed to such an extent that he wondered what the tragedy of the past had been.
He noticed that the beastly breath had stopped. It was as if time had stopped.
“Well, well, well. Jolt-kun, does Maruna-chan’s name sound familiar to you?
Riruna-chan is also fine.
“……MarunaRilunaism……”
It’s the second largest religious organization in the world, after the Axis Church.
It’s not like they’re worshipping pillars like the Axis Church!?So I think it’s no exaggeration to say that we are the world’s largest religious organization!
“Yes!?We’re gods!
But Jolt had never heard of two Marnalyrna gods, or a girl in their own right.
“We are gods, so we can slow down time and stuff!”
“It’s not hard to come here without being noticed by the wolf!”
It was hard to believe that they were gods.
But if the two of them are the ones creating this situation, then their power must be solid.
“If you can do that, you could have saved the people who were attacked by this thing!”
“Huh? Most of the people in Manny’s kingdom are Axis Church members, right?”
“Why do they need to be saved?”
If you say so, it might be that way.
But then, I have no idea why a God would come to me.
“I’m just here to spoil it for you, aren’t I?
“It’s our fault that Jolt-kun came to this world, right?”
“So is Mr. Darien.”
“Jolt-kun is a trashy, helpless bastard, but I called him here to see if he’d come to his senses after his reincarnation.”
“I thought scum would stay scum.”
“Riruna-chan wins. Conclusion!?I thought scum would stay scum.”
“Darien-kun was too serious to be interesting.”
“It would have been fun to fight a wise man.”
“Why do you have to be so cooperative?
“Why do you have to be the righteous one?
“Well, I’m just watching.
“I’m just going to watch and see what they do.
Jolt was overwhelmed by their alternating ramblings.
It was as if he couldn’t catch up with them and was just confused.
“And the reason why I’m here now, at this time!”
“Jolt-kun, you’re going to be dead soon, so I wanted to ask you before you die.”
“How was your life? Did you enjoy your life as a piece of trash?”
“How did you feel when a God spoiled it all for you?”
The two Jolt’s into the eyes. There was no way for Jolt to know what he looked like. But he must be looking like an idiot because he didn’t understand.
“Oh, you’re not going to help me, are you?
Jolt said as if he were clinging to her.
If he had the power of God, he could do anything.
“Oh, no. It’s not like that this time, is it?
“I’m just taking a long, hard look at the lives of trash people.”
“What the hell do you want? You play with people’s lives! You’re messing with people’s lives! You’re messing with them!”
“I thought it would be funny. - But it wasn’t very funny, so I gave up.”
Then they turned their backs and walked away, as if they were no longer interested.
What’s next?
“What about that one from before? He said he could kill an enemy just by thinking about it.”
“What’s that? How does that work?”
Marnalilna disappears, and time begins to move.
In front of Jolt, there was the Hungry Wolf King with his big mouth open.
The jaws of the hungry wolf king close.
The only thing that saved Jolt was that he was still confused at the moment of being swallowed.
