Re:Zero Kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu

― ― The time goes back slightly.

― ― From now on, let me see if you are qualified to become the swordsman of this island.

In the room where he was taken out of the healing room and forced into it, Gustav looked around with his four strong arms together.

The mechanical and cold gaze was directed at all four of them with Subaru.

A grey scaly lizard, a skinny man with a tattoo all over his naked upper body and hair shaved bald, and a sophisticated young man with rusty hair.

Those were the ones that were pushed into the same room as Subaru.

From what Gustav saw, Subaru and the men were in the same position.

However, from the perspective of the thrown side, the idea seemed to be disagreeable.

"Wait, Viceroy Gustav! Are you going to start Sparka?" You want to add these kids to the number of people? That's not a joke! "

The rusty-haired young man who saw Subaru pressing his back and entering the room yelled.

Although he had a fairly well-balanced face, his impatient, fatigued and unhappy expressions had considerably reduced his frustration.

But it doesn't matter what you look like here. The proof is that two people, other than the young man, are eating Gustav like he's got a fever in him.

"That's right! What's the use of a kid!?" My life is at stake! "

"I won't make a sword fight a cruel spectacle." I heard it was the viceroy's policy...? "

"You two are right. Let me give you a convincing explanation. In the first place, even if the child is added, the number of people is insufficient. I bet you were talking to a pair of five!"

Tattoos and rusty hair of the lizard and the lizard all speak out at once, and anger is bombarded at Gustav.

Imaichi, it is difficult for Subaru to come out without swallowing the contents of [Sparka] and his relationship with them. I just figured it out somehow.

Apparently, Subaru has failed those three, and Gustav is unhappy about it.

"...... Gustav, people are saying this."

"I hear you, Schwartz. Unlike my arm, my ears are the same as yours, and I have only two ears, but I intend to be able to play my full part. There's only one head in this world."

If it is--

"-Shut up. If you're going to stop talking about your job, it's going to stop the Emperor."

In one word, the words followed by rusty hair were crushed.

Gustav didn't change his complexion or his tone of voice. Nevertheless, the weight of the meaning of the inserted words was so heavy that they were out of step.

Not only rusty hair, but the other two also shut their mouths. Seeing that, Gustav nodded.

"Very well, then, let's continue our conversation." As announced, we will now begin your [Sparka]. The spectators are already swordsmen who are residents of the island, and there are no outside visitors. Whether or not you have the strength to entrust your valued visitors with their hospitality, it is also a touchstone for that. "

"The audience..."

With an unpleasant feeling, Subaru muttered in a small voice.

As it stands, Pseudo Cecilus, who was with Subaru until he was pushed into the front of the room, broke up with him and said, "Good luck! I'm looking up!” he said.

I didn't know what it meant, but I can almost imagine what it means.

"I don't think you're going to let us fight..."

"Ha! You really don't know anything, kid." If that's the case, we'd be very happy to have someone like you mixed up with us! "

"Ugh..."

As soon as I thought of it, I put out my long tongue to the lizard person and made a fool of myself.

But there's a reason for what he said. If 'Sparka' is something that members of this audience can play against, then children are welcome to mix.

Rather, they were worried that Subaru was out of power.

Rather, are we all going to fight something?

"You're clever, kid." I was shorter. just shut up a little bit.... "

Instead of gently praising her, she was advised with bloodied eyes from her tattoo.

In the meantime, team play seems set to start at its worst. This is not a situation where you can lightly slap your mouth.

“What the hell are you going to do to us?”

"I'm not saying he's a trained sword guy." You and them will not talk. [M] That's all I can tell you from my job. Because enemies don't always appear under the sun. "

"--Are you mysterious? That's a bad hobby, isn't it?"

Rusty hair responds to Gustav's words by twisting the edges of his mouth.

Then he took a small sigh, and continued to say, "So,"

"Let me hear you try to force silence." If the child is the fourth, what will happen to the fifth? "Our 'together' is......"

"Gentlemen, the fifth person remains asleep in the healing chamber." As long as you don't wake up, Sparka will be challenged by this person alone. "

"Are you insane, Viceroy...!"

If it is necessary for the Emperor to do as he pleases, I will use either sanity or madness.

In response to Gustav's ruthless answer, his rusty hair diverted his gaze. Then, the gaze of rusty hair turned toward Subaru and called out, "You."

Until then, the swordscreen and the sudden appointment made Subaru's cheeks stiff.

"W-what the hell..."

"Looks like you're just a poor kid, but what can you do?" What about magic? Do you have any helpful strengths? ”

"Y-you know, useful stunts..."

Asked quickly, Subaru rushed to open his eyes.

Unfortunately, after shrinking, I didn't feel like I could handle the whip properly, and it was useless without my cute Beatrice. Other small tricks can't be used properly if they're small.

Svalbard pushes silently, unable to say anything. And his rusty hair was on his forehead,

"Are you really just a child... oh my God"

And she murmured in a terribly frustrated voice.

"Hey, hey, there aren't enough kids in there." It's over, it's over!

"Don't make such a big noise, Scorpion. You want to make me angry and die...?"

"Ahhn? I can't hear you, you're whispering!"

As a result, Subaru and his rusty hair seemed to dislike the exchange, and the lizard people and tattoos began to make a big mistake. The two of them clung to each other and were about to start hitting each other. There's rusty hair there, "Wait!" And I came in in a great hurry.

“What are we fighting for! I know what you're thinking, but listen to me! Before I came here, I was a warrior who worshiped the unbearable! If you follow my instructions...."

"Shut up! You were a warrior?" Then why are you here?! Because I lost and became a prisoner of war! It's evil! "

"There's nothing foolisher than giving one's life to another. No one can control my rules."

"Ki, you guys ahhh...!"

However, the lizards and tattoos do not listen to the words of the rusty hair that broke in.

Besides, when the two of them told me back, my rusty hair turned bright red and I started to get angry. I don't know what's waiting for me, but it's definitely not a good situation.

"G-Gustav-san..."

"Schwartz, there's nothing I can say from my full time job. I've already told you what my job is. Even a drop of blood shed on this swordsman's island is needed for the prosperity of the Empire. Not even a drop."

"... I don't know what that means even if you say it all over again"

The three of them rubbed together, leaving Subaru unable to pick up the meaning of Gustav's words.

Looking down at the four of them in such a desperate situation, Gustav wouldn't say anything more.

And then--

△▼△▼△▼△

― ― The relationship between the four of them remained in the worst state, and the [Sparka] in question began.

――――

A circular field surrounded by high walls, it was the stage of the swordsman called the Gladiator.

Beyond the wall is a staircase-shaped audience seat, filled with chunky sitting figures, and quiet enthusiasm that can be seen throughout the venue.

But the creepy thing is, they look down at the sword arena - as Gustav explains, they're very quiet when it comes to the swordsman.

In Svalbard's casual image, the audience thought it was vulgar to make a noise in such a place.

But that kind of image difference might be something that we can't help.

After all, it is Gustav who manages and controls this island. ― ― I didn't think that big man who seemed to be flexible would forgive the swordsman's vulgar attitude.

"Just running down the hallway is going to be a severe punishment."

Like that, Svalbard turned away from reality with all his strength.

Otherwise, I'll be forced to shake my lap and run away.

─ ─ Slowly, in the eyes of the demonic beast who appeared from beyond the open iron fence.

――――

The demonic beast with the face of the lion that was coming out was familiar to me.

In the past, it was a large demonic beast brought into the Mansion by the subdued child, and it was also a commemorative opponent that became the material of Subaru's whip. The name didn't come up.

"La, Rai-an...?"

"--Ohhh!!"

As if to answer Subaru's call, the demonic beast and the lion of the swordfighting beast bark. The barking echoed across the sword arena, and the sound echoed all the way into Subaru's body.

I couldn't help but be scared to look at a swordfighting beast bigger than Gustav from afar.

"If we don't get rid of it, we won't be saved."

A rusty-haired man stared at the lion and said in a bitter voice.

That's right, that's right. That is the condition for ending this [Sparka], and Subaru and the three of them have to work together to complete the challenge.

Winning was a terrible challenge that could not be seen anywhere.

"Shit, damn it, why am I seeing this...!"

"Stop whining!" We need to do everything in our power to survive! Look at that! "

Ah?

A lizard who covers his face with his hands and mourns at the end of the world. The rusty hair pointed to the edge of the sword arena, and the lion and the Subaru standing on the diagonal could be seen just to the left and right of the venue.

There, you can see what is standing in front of you.

"- Is that a sword?"

"Oh, I see that too...!"

When Subaru agreed with the tattoo, he was stunned coldly. But even if you can't get your friend's consent, what you see doesn't disappear like smoke.

It was definitely two swords that were stuck in there.

"They won't have weapons, and they won't imitate a swordfighting beast in no time." Securing weapons is our first priority. However, only the right sword can be used. "

"... that's right."

Tattoos nod to the words of rusty hair and agree. I didn't say anything because I thought I'd be annoyed when I spoke up, but Svalbard had the same opinion.

Because the right sword was too small, but the left sword was too big.

That's why the left sword is big enough to make Gustav wonder if it's for use, and the blade is thick enough to swing around.

Even if the Subaru didn't get smaller, it wouldn't be able to lift it.

Maybe rusty hair and tattoos don't work with a sword that's too big.

Therefore, only the smaller sword can be used as a weapon. It would have been nice to have members who could use that big sword.

“That's huge. I had no choice but to get a weapon and aim it at the eyes of the Gladiator. Scratch the inside of his head and take him down. That's our only winner."

"... can you use your sword?"

“I told you, I was a warrior. I can use it better than you guys can."

Rusty hair answers confidently, tattoos peeling in one eye. Apparently judging the silence as positive, the rusty hair turned back to Subaru and the lizard people,

"If there is a declaration to start, I will go to secure that sword." In the meantime, stay away from me, the defenseless Gladiator. "

"Chi, don't let me get any closer, what should I do?"

"You just need to bring your voice and sound to my attention. Think about that for yourself!"

"I-I got it...."

Strongly retorted by his rusty hair, Subaru nodded quietly.

It's a pretty frightening operation, but there's no other way. And if you're a confident sword user with rusty hair, you can defeat the lion.

You should be able to finish this terrible [Sparka] and think about how to shake yourself.

That's why--

"--We 're going to start" Sparka "!!"

Gustav's declaration was thick and rough, and the unleashed lion was lowered.

Depressed by this sense of intimidation, Subaru took a breath to attract the attention of the Swordfighting Beast in order to gain time for the rusty hair to secure his weapon.

"Gahhh!?"

"-Oh!?"

Before I could shout out loud, I saw my rusty hair fall to the ground right next to me.

The rusty hair that Gustav was going to run out of immediately after his declaration, he was falling to the ground. Even though I was surprised, I was even more surprised that his fallen face was kicked.

It was the tattoo of my people who did it.

He scratched his rusty hair as he ran out and kicked him to the ground. And after watching the rusty hair roll into large letters,

“I told you. I don't want to leave my life to others....."

Having said that, the tattoo ran vigorously and headed for the small sword.

Suddenly, Subaru's eyes widened, and he was stuck on the right how to do it.

"Oh, I'm sorry!" I'm dying, I'm dying! "

"Hey!?"

A lizard man screaming in a flipped voice runs away with his back to the lion. As he stuck to the wall of the battlefield, he slowly began to change the color of the scales.

The gray scales assimilate into the colors of the walls, making the large body so hard to see.

One passes through his companion, one sticks to the wall, one is struck by his companion, and the last one is confused by the situation, and his eyes are wide open and he is in a panic.

- It's a terrible start.

"What should I do...?"

Seeing as Subaru's face turned blue, he looked towards the lion.

Looking at this group of people with zero sense of unity, what impression did the Gladiator have? Or frightened that the fangs might pierce through the Subaru the moment I turned around.

But--

――――

Huh?

A swordfighting beast whose beginnings had been proclaimed and who thought he was going to play with the ridiculous Subaru. However, the lion remained in the previous posture it was made in the beginning, and it did not move slightly.

It's as if the beginning hasn't been proclaimed.

Thinking like that, Subaru noticed. --That impression is exactly what I felt.

No, you can't...!

Reach out your hand, and let it speak out, and it will not go on.

Because Svalbard didn't know his name. I can't call on the names of people I don't know, and even if I call on someone I don't know, how powerful is it?

That's why Subaru's voice had no power, and the events ahead could not be stopped.

"I got it, if I had this..."

Outflanking his companions, he reached a sword with a powerful running tattoo stuck to the ground in the sword arena.

He grinned and pulled the sword off the ground to see how it felt in his hands. I wonder how much courage that cold metal feel and weight gave him.

Looking back at him, he was just a face without enemies.

"--Oh!"

The tattooed face is relentlessly blown away by the shaken lion's forefoot.

A sharp nail flew up from the tattoo's neck, and blood spurted from the body that was slow to realize that it was dead.

Hi

At that moment, Svalbard's throat froze when he saw the horrible sight.

At the same time, he cursed himself as a fool from the bottom of his heart, who was slow to realize.

The lion rose the moment the tattoo held the handle of the sword.

That was a true declaration of initiation for the lion. I'm sure the Svalbards still had time to plan their operations until the declaration of commencement was made.

The Svalbards ruined it in a hurry, anxiety.

"--Oh!!"

When the sword fell to the ground with a high-pitched sound, the body of the headless tattoo fell backwards. Indifferent to the death of such a prey, the lion barked loudly and began to run violently with its large four legs. - Straight to the wall of the Gladiator Stadium.

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!!"

I don't know how the lion found the lizard man mimicking the wall. I don't know, but I couldn't stand the approaching lion, and it was definitely the decision of the lizard to scream and run away.

"--giggle"

The lion thrust its head against the wall, and the intense headstorm ran away, crushing the lower half of the lizard's body, and the contents of the lizard jumped out like a frog struck by a car.

"Guhhhh"

The viscera that was spit out from the crushed mouth had a red or pink color, and even if it was transformed into the same color as the wall, Subaru thought that the contents were as they were.

I thought so, and I knew clearly that the crushed lizard had died in front of Subaru.

And then--

"What... what a foolish thing to do"

While shaking his head, his rusty hair, which had seen both of them die, spilled forcelessly.

He was desperate to get through this situation by joining forces with him. Even so, one of my allies got out, got away, and the possibilities disappeared completely.

Even with rusty hair, I don't think Subaru can do what I expected from tattoos and lizards.

Even if it was expected, I didn't think Subaru would be able to meet it.

Perhaps the voice of Subaru's heart came to him when he saw his eyes.

"... stay behind me"

When you realize a desperate situation, how many human beings will be strengthened before the end.

A man with rusty hair who couldn't get a weapon and had no friends, he probably wanted to celebrate his last moments with honor.

Protecting his child, Subaru, on his back, he glares at the turning lion.

With that gaze, the lions roared small, kicking the ground with their strong four legs and rushing toward the Subaru.

"Uu, uuu....."

I can't turn my head too much in the face of what happened in the blink of an eye.

If anyone here could be counting on, did you come up with a way to do something about it?

Louis, Medium, Flop, Tarrita, Al, Abel, Miselda, Holly, Kuna, Utakata, Rem...

Someone, somebody, somebody could have done something about it.

"I'm...."

At this point, Subaru tried to squeeze out his trembling voice.

But I couldn't. Not because the lions got to Subaru before we could do that.

Because Subaru's shoulder was grabbed and pushed forward by force.

"No, I don't want to die, I don't want to die...!!"

Screaming, the rusty-haired man thrust Subaru in front of the lion.

I don't have time to open my eyes and complain. However, when I hit the body of the lion that pushed straight in, Subaru's body flew lightly like a leaf.

――――

What a fragile body.

With one shot to the body of the Gladiator Beast, Subaru's body fell apart in a daze. I didn't cut my limbs a thousand times, but the contents were all shattered.

The bones and internal organs are all broken like they were hit by a truck, and it's a mess.

"Help me! I was wrong!" It was a lie! A warrior is a liar! I was just trying to put some foil on it! Let me out! Let me out!! "

Rusty hair jumped against the wall underneath the flying Subaru, sobbing. He is desperately complaining about Gustav, who is on the wall.

But even when Gustav looked at the man who was crying with his nose dripping, he looked pale without moving a single eyebrow.

Perhaps you knew the lies of rusty hair.

Maybe you're not interested in lying or being true.

Either way, it doesn't matter.

"Tatsu-"

The rusty hair clinging to the wall was beaten by the front leg of the lion who pushed it from behind and crushed like a tomato was thrown against the wall.

Tattoos, lizards, rusty hair, all fell before the swordfighting beast.

”-Sooosh, bassh, can you hear me?”

Suddenly, a voice was heard in the noisy tinnitus, and Subaru moved his neck.

When I do, I realize that for the first time, I was blown to the ground and was rolling. I couldn't help but notice.

Also, the voice was on the wall, and there was a figure watching Subaru rolling to the ground from there.

A little boy with blue hair and a hateful face.

"I'm sorry, it looks like my prospects were wrong." I thought I could do it, but I still can't do it like my dad did. I don't seem to be able to see people! "

"Ah, ahh..."

"Is there anything you want to tell me when a child with you happens?" I think it's a good idea to make that kind of discourse, so let's take this opportunity! "

Looking at the moaning Subaru, it was like a pseudo Cecilus with his attitude unchanged.

Thinking about it, his attitude didn't change at all, whether he woke up, talked in the healing room, or even though Subaru was on the verge of running out of breath like this.

In that case, even though the notion of death seems very unreasonable is a false Cecilus that is supposed to be a wolf boy, it feels like an element that feels a little authentic.

If so, he is the strongest general in the Volakian Empire.

"--No"

"Huh? What? Bassu, it's the last time, so please speak up!" If it's the wrong message, I don't think you'll regret it. ”

"No, I hate it..."

――――

I put my hand on my ear and said so to the fake Cecilus, who was trying to hear Subaru's voice.

False Cecilus raised his eyebrows at the words. Make a little more noise from the back of your throat.

I hate the Empire.

"- Yeah, yeah, sure. I'll keep it firmly in mind, Bassuu”

Take the grievance seriously and curse the fake Cecilus with a face that looks like other personnel.

However, Subaru cannot be sure that the curse will destroy the Empire.

I mean...

"---..."

The swordfighting beast that came under Subaru, the last of the four who fought against him, opened its mouth and swallowed Subaru from his head without mercy.

"--Oh"

Even though your bones are already torn apart, the fangs of the lion will slit your body without a second thought.

Fortunately, my body was so shaky that I didn't understand the pain anymore, so even if I was bitten or scraped, I only thought it was unpleasant.

After that, I tried my best to get stuck in my throat, but I couldn't do it either.

The last bite bit chewed the head off trying to make a bad trick--

△▼△▼△▼△

"If we don't get rid of it, we won't be saved."

I was surrounded by stupid red and black meat, and it was just after I had been messed up for a while.

A voice that sounded like a surprise pulls Subaru back to reality. However, it's a reality that I can't help but think of as a nightmare even when I wake up.

The ground of the battleground is covered with quiet heat and dry sand that feels noisy.

Immediately next door are the worst moments that come before your eyes, and the people who are trying to protect their lives first - different, just the same situation.

If you don't think so, I can't accept what happened earlier.

"Ahh, ahh, ahhh..."

I thought it would be better if I didn't.

Because of this, Subaru's whole body hit the body of the Swordfighting Beast, and he remembered the fear of being bitten down, and the fury of throwing it into reality.

When I think of it, I can't stand up very much.

"Uu, where are the children... yes, that's enough!" You guys, look at that! "

Ah?

Squatting in front of Subaru, I saw a large and small sword with tattoos and a lizard man under the direction of rusty hair.

However, the sword that attracts their attention is of course the smaller one. A large sword that cannot be used is ignored, and its securing and destruction of the sword fighting beast are set as a policy.

"... can you use your sword?"

“I told you, I was a warrior. I can use it better than you guys can."

The story I heard earlier continued in a faint way, and anxiety began to burn in Subaru.

But to remain trapped in anxiety and fear, it was a speech I could not overhear.

"--I 'm lying."

"... what?"

Suddenly, Subaru's voice cracked into the men's operation meeting.

As soon as I heard that, the tone of the rusty-haired man's voice changed. The man looked back and looked down at Subaru, who was squatting. Svalbard stared at the man's face while lying on his knees.

And then lay it up again.

"Warriors are lies." You're lying! "

"Oh, on what basis...!" Are you going to insult me just because I'm a child!? "

"Which insult is it?!" You're much more insulting than lying and trying to make yourself look good! What are you going to do in such a situation? "

"Gu, gu......"

Did you think that yelling loudly would silence the child? Rather, the rusty hair of Subaru's biting rebellion was visible and wolfed.

I think I could see that upset in the tattoo I was talking about.

"... hey, is that kid's word true?" You're trying to plot against me, not a warrior? "

"Wait, that's a child's bullshit!?" It's unfortunate that where my life was at stake..... "

"Try to convince me because my life is at stake..."

The tattoo grabs the rusty-haired chest and distorts with anger the face with the skull-like picture in it. Rusty hair swallowed the sword and gasped low for breath.

This fight started because I accidentally clamped my mouth. As you can see, the lizard who doesn't get into a fight is squeaking backwards and getting ready to escape.

Even though Subaru's mouth was cut off, the team was in a fragmented state of aerial disassembly.

Moreover, whether the Subaru and the others are in such a state,

"--We 're going to start" Sparka "!!"

And I'm not Gustav, who will postpone the proclamation of the beginning of the battle.

"Do you have any questions--"

”U, ahhhhhhhh!!”

A thick voice announced the opening of the war, and the voice of the man who turned back immediately cut through the sword arena.

When I saw it, it was the tattoo that was stuck to the rusty hair that was screaming. Apparently, she was bit by the hand that grabbed her chest, and she ate her fingers and cut them off a thousand times.

His rusty hair dyed his mouth with blood and ran into his sword as he pushed his tattooed chest out of his mouth.

"Oh, I'm sorry!" I'm dying, I'm dying! "

In contrast to the rusty hair running towards the sword, the lizard people are sticking to the swordfighting field wall in the same way as before, and they are starting to simulate behavior that changes the color of the scales.

The tattoo with two missing fingers was squatting in her right hand, and Subaru's knees were trembling in front of him, even worse than before.

"Don't do anything unnecessary...!" Just do as I say, honestly! "

With such Subaru's bloodshot rusty hair, I reached the small sword.

Cursing that he had been caught lying and that he had been grabbed by a tattoo, he reached out his hand and pulled the sword off the ground, holding it in a warrior-like fashion.

"---..."

Suddenly, a lion jumped when it received the [start] signal.

What happened was almost the same as when the last tattoo took the sword. His rusty hair couldn't afford to wield his sword, and he was blown off by the front legs of the Gladiator Beast.

With the sword firmly in hand, the arms of the rusty hair were cut a thousand times with the elbows and the two arms. Immediately after the rounded-eyed rusty hair leaked a thin voice such as "ah", the lion's intense blow splashed over the body of the man without arms, and slammed his head against the wall.

The rusty-haired man stained the wall, and the roaring swordfighting beast ignored Subaru and the tattoo, and ran violently to the wall behind the swordfighting field.

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!!"

The lizard screamed at the intimidation of the running lion.

The lizard man, who had screamed and taught him where to go, tried to change his position in a hurry, but he couldn't make it. The lion's lunge crushed his lower body and made him spit out his internal organs.

Then, the lion that killed the two quickly slowly turned back to Subaru and the man with the tattoo and roared bloodyly.

"Hee..."

"Shit, I'm going to keep doing the worst thing ever..."

Your brain is numb, and your paralyzed thoughts slowly start to move. Because of this, Subaru's body recalls his fears, his teeth rattling and his internal organs tightening.

The tattoo of my teeth was right, and the worst was repeated on top of the worst, and even worse, there was nothing I could do about it.

Rusty hair meant nothing to me if I told you I was a liar.

Even though she exposed her rusty-haired lies there, there was nothing good about it, and Subaru did it without thinking. Because of that, it's all a mess.

"...... Are you still willing to live, boy?"

"Eh......"

"If you want to live, pick up your sword."

Her sight was soaked, and her tattoo said that to Subaru, who was about to cry.

Looking at it, the tattoo slapped the ground with its bloody right hand and stood up while scratching the sweat. As he did so, he jerked his jaw and showed that the rolling sword - the rusty hair - was falling with the ripped arm.

"I'll attract that monster... you pick up your sword and throw it at me"

"So, but..."

"Even if I don't have enough fingers, I can use it better than a kid..."

When I was told that, there was no sound of Subaru or Guru.

There were two swords, big and small, and although they were said to be smaller, they were still long enough to be handled by a child's body. As the tattoo said, even if Subaru waved with both hands, it would be my pleasure to be swayed by its weight and length.

However, if the tattooed sword told me that I could defeat the lion, Subaru thought that I would never know about his death last time.

Even so...

"I don't want to give up either..."

"... you're better than a con man and a coward"

The painful tattoo warps his lips, welcoming Subaru's determination.

As it is, the tattoo carefully observes the lion as it grabs the tattoo and tears it apart from Subaru.

"It's Vitz..."

"... eh?"

"It's my name, Schwartz."

Called Schwartz, Svalbard looked at him with surprise.

Gustav was the only one who called Svalbard Schwartz. That's why Tattoo-Weitz remembered his first name.

Of course, that doesn't add up to anything, and I know that Vaits did a cowardly copycat last time trying to get his rusty hair out.

I know, but--

- Go!

When Vaits shouted so, it was a reason not to hesitate to run off on it.

――――

Holding back his desire to scream, Subaru ran to the ground in the battlefield with all his strength.

Naturally, it is too late: the child's body is short, and his viscera, which are constricted by fear and tension, are in terrible pain. Even though you often suffer from lack of strength, your body is not strong enough.

Still, he ran desperately. Run, run, run, reach the sword.

"Uu, ku...!"

Both hands of rusty hair were stuck to the sword, and I almost threw up just by looking at it. But not when you're throwing up.

I pulled my stiff fingers off one by one and forcibly removed my rusty hair from the sword.

Then, while breathing roughly, Subaru lifted his sword.

I did it, I missed it!

Exhaling heavily, Subaru listened to the sword he had taken out. Then I turned around and threw my sword at Vitz.

"Schwartz!!"

The desperate voice of the Vaits turned upside down on Subaru's entire body.

A lion with a big mouth was closing in on Subaru's sight as he turned around. At that moment, I felt like a deer I could eat, and the movement of the lion seemed to be a slow motion.

――――

Slowly, a scary-looking lion approaches.

Even though it seems like it can be dodged, I can't escape at all because of the slow motion of my movements while I'm watching it. However, the throwing of the sword continued.

At least I want to finish throwing my sword before the lion strikes.

- Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry!

Amidst the tremendous slowness, Subaru's heart screamed desperately, putting a wish in his arms and fingers.

I wonder if it has arrived. Finally, the sword leaves Subaru's hand, and as it comes around, it spins vertically, passing by the jumping lion and flying toward Vitz.

Weitz, with his missing finger, shouts something at Subaru, who is attacked by a lion. But I don't know what that scream is. I'm glad you don't know.

Anyway, as long as you use that throwing sword well.

”Uu, ahhhhhhhh!!”

Immediately after I thought I had fulfilled my role, the world that had slowed down was restored.

A barking lion jumped in, and Subaru, who was screaming, clenched his ass thinking that he would be torn apart by the claws or fangs of a gladiatorial beast. The tears and runny nose gushing out of her face, and Subaru is ready to die and make his face miserable.

And yet...

- Huh?

The lion attack that was supposed to kill Subaru didn't arrive.

Because the lion thrusts its front foot into the ground in front of Subaru, killing the momentum, and then slams its hind leg into the Vitz directly behind it.

"Bu"

Weitz receives Subaru's thrown sword and slashes it from behind the lion. The tattooed face of the Vaits crushes the hooves of the lion's hind legs.

Just like before, once again, he was blown up from his neck and Vitz died. The sword swung out and rolled to the far ground in the air.

"---..."

Then, slowly, the awareness of the lion that killed Vitz turned to Subaru.

There was no sweetness in it for me to miss, only a ferocious intent to kill.

"Bass! Bass! Excuse me, are you sure you can get back from there?"

Behind them, the fake Cecilus came from the audience in the arena, watching this unholy battle. He looked down at Subaru, who was clumsy.

"It's like awakening a hidden power or unlocking a technique that seals the unauthorized death of a fellow soldier!" Is it possible? I don't think so, do I? "

"... no, that's not true."

"Hmm, right? I'm sorry, it was my fault! Do you have a story for the girl you're with? I wonder if that's the way to do it!"

I was told in a very cheerful tone that was no different from the moment of death just now, and Subaru breathed a sigh of relief. The difference is that Subaru's bones are not yet torn apart.

After this, even if it might fall apart, or even if it's scary enough to die, it's still not dead.

Ceci, just one question.

"Is this a question, not a discourse? The so-called souvenir to the posthumous? Whether or not my answer is worthy of Bassu's, the luminosity of the flower-shaped actors will be tested here--"

Why didn't that lion kill me earlier?

"-Hmmm"

Pointing at the swordfighting beast in front of her, Subaru asked the false Cecilus on the wall.

As a wolf boy, I don't know if Svalbard will give me the right answers. However, it wasn't bad for the last bad scratch, I just consoled myself.

In response to Subaru's question, Pseudo Cecilus stroked his thin jaw,

"That's easy, Bassu." ― ― The beast is a beast, even if it is ferocious. If it does, the beast will only hunt by instinct. Instinct is the power of life. ”

"... what do you mean?"

If Bassou were that beast, who would he aim at?

Mysterious rhetoric doesn't make Subaru a simple questioner.

Frustrated, Subaru thought of the meaning of the word for false Cecilus. If Subaru was that lion, who would he aim at?

If I wanted to aim, what was the reason?

"--Ahhh"

Suddenly, it occurred to me. If that's the case, it's going to fall to the ground.

And then--

"When she wakes up, I'll tell her that Bassu was brave." I'm a terrible liar, so it was very helpful to be brave! "

I heard such an insensitive voice, but I didn't have time to say it back.

Reaching an understanding, he opened his eyes wide, and the lion standing in front of him waved his forefoot down.

It was the first time that Subaru had properly heard the sound of his being crushed.

△▼△▼△▼△

"If we don't get rid of it, we won't be saved."

My head was crushed, my shoulders were crushed, my body was crushed, my butt was crushed, and everything was crushed.

Slowly, when the human body eats an unbearable heavy and fast attack, the body breaks like that, and Subaru tasted it like other personnel.

Of course, I really don't have access to other personnel.

If I could, I would have suffered less. The pain and the fear were minimal. Still, Subaru has a lot of experience with chaos frames.

- Ten seconds, like hell.

Because of that, Subaru knew that the importance of just a few seconds was stained.

Because I knew it was staining my body--

"Shit, damn it, why am I seeing this...!"

"Stop whining!" We need to do everything in our power to find a way to survive! That 's- "

Immediately, the lizard and rusty hair are desperate to accept the situation in front of them.

Well, listening to the conversation you already know, Subaru shouts.

"Vitz! Hold him down!"

"What...?"

The moment Subaru shouted so, the tattoo--the tattoo on Vitus' face was perplexed.

Of course. Subaru knew his name even though he never called himself one. Moreover, even if they call you by name, you can't imagine yourself acting like a creepy child.

But neither the bewildered Weitz, nor the rusty-haired lizard who was surprised by Subaru's sudden loud voice had time to stop Subaru's sudden action.

And then--

"- Lion! Who are you after!?"

The small hand of the shouting Subaru grabbed the sword pierced the ground and grabbed it by force.

At that moment, without waiting for Gustav's order, the swordfighting beast barked, and its legs kicked the ground and slammed into Subaru.

If Bassou was that beast, who would he aim at?

Pseudo-Cecilus words like mystery are burning with pain in Subaru's brain.

Yes, yes. If Subaru is a lion, I will aim for the Dangerous Guy. In this place, for example, there's a man with a weapon.

"---..."

As she barked, Subaru bit her back teeth into the face of the lion. You have a trembling fear of your internal organs, but you can't lose, you can't run away, you can't cry.

I've been killed twice already, and how many times have I been so scared?

"Because I'm a kid, I think I'll cry and throw it out right away!!"

Work with cowards, cowards, and fraudsters to fight through this [Sparka] with all your might, all your strength, and all your spirit.

--A moment of determination, the lion's intense forefoot blew Natsuki Svalbard's life away for the third time.
