CHAPTER 222 – THE CROSSING “GOOD”
In the living room of my Magic Cottage .
I made Io, Olivia, and Tanya wait in the front of the cottage, and holding Hikari’s hand, I tried to go once again to the lottery place while holding the golden ticket .
?……I can’t go after all?
?It’s completely the same as before?
?It means that although I got the ticket, I can only use it after going back huh?
?Too bad, I wanted to meet Onee-chan too?
?You’ll meet her after we return . And for that, I need to kick “that” Eleanor’s sass?
?Un! Hikari will do her best?
?Hikari doesn’t need to try so hard, okay??
?You……?
?It’s okay? . Hikari is a Demon Sword too . Also?
“Ehehe?”, Hikari laughed innocently .
?Even if Hikari slashes towards her, Okaa-san should be okay . She’s Hikari’s Okaa-san after all!?
?Umu, it’s exactly as she said . However, it is not alright to give up just like that . Hikari, I shall teach you how to cut me . You should learn it and grow furthermore as a Demon Sword?
?Un! Hikari will do her best!?
Hikari who is the incarnation of purity, she’s so cute after all . She’s the cutest in the world without a doubt .
Well, leaving aside how cute she is, am I too protective of her?
……ahh, I see .
I was imposing my values on her too much .
?Hikari?
?What is it?, Otou-san?
?Let’s do it with full strength . Enough to chop that other Eleanor into two?
?Un!?
Hikari smiled innocently .
?
I went out with Hikari and after keeping the Magic Cottage to my Different Dimension Warehouse, I called out to the three .
?I’ve kept you waiting?
?U?un, you couldn’t go? Kakeru-san?
?Yeah, I couldn’t . It will be after we return?
?Ororo?, too bad . I wanted to see Human’s thing?
?Olivia can’t follow, so you can’t see it?
?Un, I tried to bring O-chan before, but I couldn’t??
Hikari agreed with me, but Olivia shook her head with a smile .
?Human is going to a different space right? If so, the atmosphere would change before and after that, so I wanted to see it?
?I see . If so, I’ll show you when we return??or rather, the future you should know about it already?
?We also tried to go there while I hug O-chan??
?Un, I’ll look forward to it?
?Uhm……uh, what are we going to do now??
Tanya asked timidly .
?Let’s meet Skiros Calamba first . Although the situation changed, we’re still probably going to fight against the Empire . The opponent only changed from Emperor Rodotos to Demon King Eleanor . If the history is moving towards the five great kingdoms, we should sortie with Skiros and the others?
?I see?
?Mercouri-san is not around, is it alright??
Io asked a very natural question .
The five great kingdoms . Mercouri, Calamba, Comotoria, Siracuza, and Aegina .
When I met Skiros, because I dropped the fan I received from Helene, he thought that I am a person from Mercouri .
Although there is no problem at all fighting as Mercouri’s side, the problem is that after the war ends, who will be the one governing the Mercouri Kingdom .
?In the first place, Helene and Iris’s appearance, they were not human?
?Ororo?, what does that mean??
Olivia tilted her head . I see, she doesn’t know huh .
I explained it to her .
The image I had when I met Helene for the first time .
A beauty with golden hair with pointed ears, as beautiful as a fairy .
I told Olivia that image .
?Ororo?, if it’s that, I know them . They’re a very small race within the demi-humans?
?Is that so??
?Un, it’s like this, right??
Olivia waved her hand .
A magic circle appeared from the ground and the soil gradually formed a shape .
It slowly turned into a humanoid shape and started to change colors .
After a while, it turned into a detailed doll .
?Ah! It’s this?
?This is it?
?Un!?
Io, me, and Hikari .
The three of us who saw Mercouri’s royal family nodded .
?And where are they??
Olivia gently closed her eyes .
When I thought of why she changed her appearance .
From a human to a huge dragon .
?Ride on, Human?
?Yeah?
I didn’t need to ask more .
It’s because I understood that Olivia’s decision to guide us there is better than just explaining .
Io, Tanya, and Hikari .
Everyone nodded and got on the back of Dragon King Olivia . She brought us to the sky and fluttered her wings, flying towards the south .
?
There is smoke rising from here and there in the village .
Shouts and screams are being exchanged, and the sound of battle could be heard from everywhere .
Meanwhile, a pair of men and women were hiding in a frugal house .
The man looked normal, one that you could see anywhere . If else, he has a well-built body that is trained through hard farming .
On the other hand, the woman was so beautiful that everyone would wish to steal a glance .
She has golden hair that is worth more than actual gold, pointed ears, and within her beautiful and dignified expression was an unforgettable wisdom and intellect .
?Rex, you should escape even if it’s just you!?
?I leave you here and run away! Leave it to me; I’ll definitely take you with me and escape?
?That’s impossible! They are the Empire’s, Overlord Rodotos’s soldiers . They came here to capture us . The only person who has the possibility of escaping in this village is you?
?Even so, I won’t leave you behind! I’ll regret it for the rest of my life if I run away without you!?
?Rex……?
?I feel glad that I came here, it’s because I was able to fulfill my encounter with destiny with you . If so, I will definitely protect this destiny no matter what!?
The man, Rex said with an unwavering will . Seeing him, the woman’s eyes were now filled with happiness and love, but mixed within them was the sadness coming from the hopeless situation .
*Bam!*, the thin door was forcefully opened .
Five heavily armored soldiers stomped and entered inside .
?Oh?, there you are . Tch, one of them was hiding after all?
?Don’t worry, woman . The superior’s order is just to capture you . We’ll send your complete body safely, so come here, don’t resist?
?Who’d believe that!?
Rex grabbed the spade that he found in the cabin and stuck it towards a soldier like a spear .
The soldier easily dodged it, drew his sword, and chopped it .
?What’s up with this guy??
?His ears aren’t pointed, so probably he’s not from here?
?A stranger huh?
?UOOOO!!?
Rex held the space that turned into a stick and challenged the soldiers again .
Although his will was unwavering, he is a man who has never fought in his life .
The soldier dodged and he was sent flying by a back fist .
He broke through the thin walls of the cabin, sent flying outside .
?Rex!?
?Oh, stop there, little lady . Don’t move . Although we were told to bring you safely, there might be a case where your jaw and shoulders are dislocated?
The soldier grabbed the woman’s shoulder . The woman was desperately running towards Rex, not listening to their words .
?Tch, this is annoying . Let’s kill that man?
One of the soldiers suggested and the other soldiers looked at each other and nodded .
?Good idea . There’s less trouble with that?
?It’s more troublesome if she’s noisy all the way?
?I’ll do it?
One of the soldiers drew his sword and went outside .
He stood in front of Rex who was hit flying and coughed out blood .
?Don’t resent me . It’s your fault coming at such a bad timing?
?Seven is good……three is bad……?
?Mm? What are you saying?
?Seven is good, three is bad……is it three……? Is it really three!?
?Tch, weird bastard . Enough, just die!?
The soldier swung his sword towards Rex . Its sharp blade cut through the air and was about to end Rex’s life .
???!?
Rex closed his eyes and faced away . However, the sword was not swung down .
Thinking of it strange, he slowly opened his eyes . What he saw was a headless soldier and a man holding a black sword .
He knew that man . Although he does not know his name, he remembered what happened before .
?The ten man……why??
After he whispered, Rex understood .
His seven good, might be his reunion with the man with ten good .
