Chapter 103: Empress vs Emperor
The light of the magic circle which has finished its purpose vanished and sunlight shines through the window and illuminates the room. There should have been lighting, but it seems that it was destroyed by the aftermath of the battle. The battle is stopped because everyone has settled.
“...”
Slowly, Grannir, standing at the center of the room, got up. Because he was just revived, he didn't wear any clothes or armor and his muscles and scales were exposed. I can't see his face from my position, so I don't know his expression.
It seems that he got up and confirmed the condition of his body, holding his fist and opening his wings. Even in such an unprotected state, we can't move. I move poorly and I don't want to stimulate him....
“...Almira.” Grannir
“Haa! Here!” Almira
Almira-san who was called kneels in front of Grannir.
“Why am I here?" Grannir
“Those who wish for your resurrection have recalled your soul to this world with the summoning magic that I have studied." Almira
“Is that so. It is said that the soul of the deceased will return to the earth, but it is not true." Grannir
“A strong regret for this world might have refused it. Everything is in your power." Almira
“Whatever, all thanks to you, Almira. When I become emperor again, I will give you your favorite reward." Grannir
“No, I'm good enough for the fact that you've returned to this world again." Almira
“As usual, so selfless. My sword." Grannir
“Here.” Almira
Grannir′s body was wrapped in light and he put on clothes. Clothes that combine luxury and functionality are worn together with a robe with a large emblem on it. A horny maiden is surrounded by dragons and giants. This emblem was also seen in the castle. Perhaps it is the royal family's crest. Exactly, it represents the current royal family. The black sheath of that sword also has it.
“...It's been a long time, Yukurishisu, Tyres, and Toururi.” Grannir
“...Older brother, why did you come back. Why didn't you return to the underworld?” Yukurishisu
“Stupid question. We will have another continent in the hands of our empire. We are the best race in the world. An outstanding person has the obligation and responsibility to manage inferior people. If you do, you will know." Grannir
“Sure, we are strong as individuals and I think we are better. However, it won't be able to decide superiority or inferiority by itself. In fact, human tactics are excellent." Yukurishisu
“In front of overwhelming power, tactics are powerless. Depends on the inherent strengths and qualities." Grannir
“However, the actual war was prolonged!” Yukurishisu
“Well, that's my fault. From the beginning, if I used strong people like me, I would have destroyed humanity now." Grannir
“Then what? Now you're going to fight on the front lines, brother?” Yukurishisu
“Yes, I'm going to put the country together. You guys will help me, too." Grannir
...Well, when we fought, there seemed to have been few high demons. It was almost as if I could drive them back with the heroes and the knights and there might not have been a demon. Well, if they come to the forefront like Yukurishisu, everything will be too strict. I guess they were underestimating humans.
“What if I say no?" Yukurishisu
“Shall I ask why?" Grannir
“My older brother chose the way to destroy humans. But, I chose the way to live with humans. I'm never going to war again." Yukurishisu
“With humans? Do you really think you can do that?" Grannir
“I believe so. We and humans have the same roots and we can communicate with each other." Yukurishisu
“...What about the two of you? Which way do you choose, Yukurishisu or me." Grannir
“I'm on sister′s side. You're a tyrant who is forcing the people to fight. It's unforgivable." Tyres
“...I also walk along older sister's path. I can't believe in humans yet, though...I think we can understand each other." Toururi
“...Is that the human, who seduced my younger siblings?” Grannir
Grannir is glaring at me with angry eyes. With just being stared at the air, the heart is shot through the line of sight and air that does not become a word leaks out.
“Tsuchio doesn't matter! This is something I decided myself and I can't give it to anyone!” Yukurishisu
“We aren’t deceived so easily.”
“Is that so? That means you guys stand against my way." Grannir
Magical power rises from Grannir′s body like a sunrise. He pulled the sword that he received from Almira-san and raised it over his head.
“Let's get rid of all obstacles. Those who hinder my plans, even my younger siblings, won't be forgiven." Grannir
“You should not be involved with this world anymore, dead man. Again, I will take your life with my hands." Yukurishisu
“Do you really think you can do that?" Grannir
“This time, I′m not alone. It seems you have come back stronger, but we′re not going to lose." Yukurishisu
Grannir′s sword wrapped in magic becomes a tornado. Magic power wrapped around the sword rises even more...what will be done next.
“It's awkward to fight here...it's too narrow.” Grannir
“Just a moment!" Yukurishisu
“Everybody fly!" Tsuchio
The sword wrapped in magic is swung down. The space was bisected by a gigantic light blade and Yukurishisu and her siblings disappeared from my sight. Blown away by the rough magical power, we pierce the wall and are thrown into the air. I felt a pleasant floating feeling for a while and something landed on my belly. It made my body bends like the く shape, the inner part of my stomach was pressured, ouch- I scream.
“OEee..." Tsuchio
“Hey, don't puke on my back! I don't have that kind of hobby!”
“That way, it's strange because it seems to be on the contrary..."
I didn't land, but I was caught by Rin. In the distance, Ruu carries Lime and Nichrome. It looks heavy.... Sitting on the back of Rin, I look at the research tower. I can't hear anything from the hole that we broke through. I am afraid to get too close, so I leave the tower a bit. Then....
“Hey, what the hell..."
“It is a lie...a slash is reaching to the ground..."
The blade of light divided the room on the top floor into two. That partitioned not only the room but also the whole research tower vertically, leaving a trace to the square just under. In the surroundings, the blood of the people who might have been involved is scattered; looking from the top, it seems as if they have dropped red paint.
If you are exaggerating to such a terrible scourge, half of the tower shakes. As I moved my eyes in a hurry, the tower that was broken lost the balance and was about to start to fall. The research tower is falling slowly. The people in the plaza escaped like scattering spiders. I already solved the brainwashing...isn't it necessary anymore?
The research tower collapses to the ground. A wonderful shop becomes rubble and the blood of the underlying people scatters and dust rises. Anyhow, it was a king....It would have been known that such a thing would hurt.
In the meantime, Grannir flew down while blowing out smoke. Almira-san who spread her wings is next to him. People who saw the previous emperor and his aide doubted their eyes and forgot to escape. Black clouds fell at a high speed from the sky and at the same time as it landed a little away. Yukurishisu, Tyres and Toururi come out from inside.
“Older brother, what are you doing! For whatever reason, did you come up with such a violent method!?" Yukurishisu
“I have made a mistake in the power degree a little...it's difficult fairly." Grannir
“...Older brother, after all you are not fit for being emperor. I will kill you here." Yukurishisu
Yukurishisu and her half siblings took their stances. Different from Yukurishisu, Tyres and Toururi aren't immortal. I don't think they will lose....
“It won't be that sweet. The sword equipped by Grannir carries strong magical power. Including that it was a sword duel, it can kill immortals." Yukurishisu
Immortality...contradictory? No, it doesn't matter. If you have such a sword, Yukurishisu is also in danger. She said she suffered a big injury from that duel, maybe she was cut by that sword.
“You can come from anywhere. I'm not going to lose now." Grannir
“Let's go, both of you!"
“Stop here!"
“I won't leave my neck behind this time!" Grannir
The giant duo plunges into Grannir and Yukurishisu starts to chant her magic. Breathing in and out from right and left, an axe from right and a sword and hammer from left. Grannir shot a white shining ball from his left hand at Tyres who defended with his sword and hammer as shield and was blown away. Next, he swung his sword and repelled Toururi′s axe before kicking her into her stomach and blowing her away as well.
“Take this!”
A magic circle is deployed on the sky and huge black iron spears appear. The spears covered by the magic circle struck at an unstoppable speed. The spears which flare through the circle fall like meteorites. Such an magic aims at Grannir.
“Great, Yukurishisu. To activate this kind of magic in such a short time." Grannir
Grannir releases a light ray from his palm. It is a huge light ray that doesn't compare with the one which hit Tyres. It swallowed and erased the huge spears, but still it pushed the heaven without stopping. If there were clouds, perhaps there would be a perfect hole now....
“Haa!”
Before I knew, Yukurishisu who was approaching Grannir, who is still looking up at the sky, raises her fist and makes an uppercut. Put some into the belly and pound the magical ball created in the palm. The magic that was put in was released, and the condensed atmosphere exploded. While cutting the skin, Grannir was blown away. Yukurishisu is trying to pursue. When chanting a few words, the rocks of the ground floated up and dropped around where Grannir flew at. Like an earthquake, the ground shakes and the stacked rocks become a mountain. Tyres and Toururi also join the pursuit. Wielding each of their weapons, they aim at Grannir who is buried in the mountain. An axe attack and a sword and hammer attack.
Finish hitting an retreat, all three gaze at the rocky mountain without hesitation. At the next moment, Grannir appeared from inside, blowing away the rock mountain. There are lacerations made by Yukurisishu 's wind and bruises made by the weapons, but it is far from full-bodied creation. He was attacked by three people and is still fine...he is a monster, indeed.
“...Is that enough?" Grannir
“What is enough?" Tyres
“I'm trying to figure out what you′re doing and it's enough. We'll start from here.” Grannir
Expanding his wings, Grannir closed the distance at once with Tyres. Tyres manages to avoid the sword, which swayed at such a speed that the sword blinks and you can't take your eyes off. However, regardless of the amount of weapons, Tyres-san is being pressed.
“What's wrong, no matter how much weapons you have, it makes no sense if you can't master them." Toururi
“You don't need to tell me...!” Tyres
From behind, Toururi attacks. She swung her axe from a high point down with the momentum of the fissure. But that is also predicted. A back fist wrapped in pure white light collides with her axe that was swung by the overwhelming power of a giant. Without stopping the movement as it was, Grannir kicked with his feet and blew Toururi away.
“Sink.”
Next, he turned both palms at those two. The white ball that appeared swelled up and a ray of the same magnitude as when the big ball was erased was released. Tyres covers himself with many arms and Toururi shields herself with her axe. And after the rays disappeared, both stood on the spot with smoke coming out of their bodies. Then, they fell down to the ground.
...They seem to be unconscious. Receiving such a ray, they should be fine. However leaving them alone is tasteless, therefore I must do some first aid measures. That's all what I can do for now.
