Shikkaku Kara Hajimeru Nariagari Madō Shidō

It was a little while after the Arks started raiding.

Charlotte Clemelia, who was being held captive in the guest room of the Marquis Mansion, was beginning to notice the noise outside.

"... what's all this noise?

It has already been a few hours since the Marquis gave me the word to take care of it.

I was in a state of anxiety and tension with Risha as to when the 'time' would come… but it was probably because the Marquis was alert to the movements of Clemelia and Rayseft that they had not yet been killed.

If the two families had already gotten some information that they were captured by the Marquises, killing them here would be irreversible for the Marquises.

No matter how expensive a finance official is, there is no way that a military house can become if it really strips its fangs off.

That's why we can't kill ourselves until we can make sure the two families don't know who we are.

On the contrary, life until then.

No matter how long you estimate, tomorrow night will be the best.

While I was thinking about it, I suddenly panicked inside the house.

The hallway sounded violent footsteps and fury, which calmed down after a while, but now the outside of the mansion became noisy.

Moreover, unlike in the Mansion, you hear not only anger, but also screams and loud sounds of something being destroyed.

Since the Marquis Mansion is located in the nobleman's quarters, there can be no such disturbance.

Because the whole compartment is a patrol route for guards, and the aristocrats hire soldiers privately, so trouble never comes in.

... I'd like to think with someone about what's going on right now, but I can't talk to Risha, who's also being caught, because she's been bitten by monkeys just in case she can't use magic.

Moreover, since it seems that it is behind the mansion that is happening, it is impossible to see the situation from the window.

When I couldn't figure out what was going on, the door of the guest room opened.

What appeared was a mercenary head that reminded me of a giant monkey.

He entered the room.

"Princesses, it's a raid."

"Shu, raid...?

Listening to his words, face to face with Risha.

Marquis Mansion with mercenaries in the garden and extra security.

Who are the raiders there?

Perth Clemelia, or Joshua, Lisa's father, noticed something unusual and sent a rescue.

"Apparently, your daughter's weak brother has brought his companions.You're such an incompetent man. "

"Ah, Arks?

Reesha's brother, Arcs Rayseft.

Indeed, in the Marquis's story just now, he was sent to the Seal Tower.

The Seal Tower is known to be particularly heavily guarded in the kingdom's prisons, and even magicians have been told that escape is impossible.

Then how did you get out of that dilemma?

And with what intent did you raid here?

Doubting them, the guest room door opened again.

The Lord of the Mansion, the Marquis of Khaw Gaston, appeared.

Were you taking a bath until just before? I wrapped myself in a bathrobe and the water is slightly rising from my body.

The Marquis asked the mercenary at the very beginning.

"Head, what's the status?Did something go wrong?

"This is it, My Lord.There's nothing wrong with that.My subordinates are hitting him right now.Everything is fine. "

"I heard you were an intruder, but who broke in?You're with the DA?Or Clemelia, Rayseft's.... "

"No, it looks like the kid I caught a while ago and sent to the seal tower."

"Stupid! Rayseft's oldest son!?

"Oh, I see.According to reports from subordinates, there's no mistake. "

"What the hell is going on?I don't know if I was spared by some mistake... but the writ must have passed to the breathtaking one... "

When he heard that the intruder was Arcs, the Marquis was surprised and looked suspicious.

You never dreamed of coming out of a sealed tower.

In a sense, of course. No one thinks we can escape from the Seal Tower.

I still think it's some kind of mistake.

"But it's not good....."

"Don't worry.I don't care what happens to such a kid. "

"That's not true.Escaping and being free could be the message to Raceft's master. "

If Arks knew what was going on, it would be reasonable to think so.

It's up to you to tell your parents, and it's up to you to tell your father Perth.

But for some reason, the mercenary's head remains spared.

"No, I don't think so."

"Why do you think that?

"My lord, it appears that only three people, including the child, came to the raid."

"What do you mean?

"There's no doubt about this.If it's passed on to me..... "

"If you're going to raid, you're going to have a full crew."

Heh.

That's true. If they come to rescue us after telling us we're caught, we should send more people.

The opponent is a senior nobleman, the Mansion.You can't break through with something that's half alive.

Nevertheless, there are only three of them.

Too few to raid the Marquis.

It was communicated to the main staff, but it is difficult to think that the staff could not be arranged...

If so, we should refrain from raiding until we are ready.

In other words,

"Are you anxious to get your sister killed right away and lost in blood?"

That's what it looks like.

Once the Marquis and mercenary heads have settled, the sound of footsteps clogged from the hallway will be heard.

Eventually, the door was opened without knocking, and a servant came running from there.

"My Lord! My Lord!

"What the hell is going on?

"Hey, thief... no, the kid broke into the Mansion!

"Kid, is Raceft's eldest son alone?

Yes!

"Then seize it! It can be that hard!

"It's like a servant can't stand his teeth... but he's stopping them now."

"They're only 10 years old!?There's nothing I can do!

The servant who heard the Marquis's shouting shrank and shrank.

And then the mercenary raised his head low.

"... hey, servant.What happened to the people outside?You have my men, right?

"Ha, yes... it looks like you've been wiped out..."

"All destroyed!?What the hell is that?

"I'm sure. I was just looking through the window, but in that state...."

--I thought they were all dead.

A powerless voice echoes from the servant's pale face.

The look on the marquis and mercenary's head was now mixed with fear.

The Marquis would have had quite a few mercenaries.

Even though the guards were assigned to different locations...

"Okay, there's only three of us.Besides, they must still be kids..... "

"The guarded mercenaries were defeated by magic, and the backyard was completely iced."

"I see you've got a good wizard...."

The Marquis beats the table while the mercenary throws up in agony.

Yeah!... I got a bad feeling about that. "

"Ah, I wonder if being able to put together a good hand gesture means that even if you rot, you're a soldier's kid... but I wonder if they beat each other bad first."

That's what the mercenary head says, but the Marquis sticks a nail at him, who is still alarmed, with no expression on his face.

"Don't be alarmed.Perhaps the child is a monster in incompetent skin. "

"Monster, huh? Then I'll peel off the skin."

As the Marquis and mercenary heads converse, the anger of the servants echoes with violent footsteps.

Are you even shooting with a sword?But he didn't seem to talk to me twice or three times, and I couldn't hear him right away.

When the sound of hardware hitting stops, the guest room door blows up gorgeously.

However, a small shadow emerged from it.

He was a silver-haired, red-eyed boy dressed like a boy in Lisa's clothes.

Is he Arcs Rayseft?

He is dressed in gorgeous clothes worn by a noble boy and holds a sword in his right hand.

As he came in, he looked around the room.

"Risha, are you okay?!

Lisa, who was next door, nodded loudly.

Arcs, who found her, instantly turned to the Marquises with a soothing expression.

Ten-year-olds look a lot tighter to do.

The noble boys of my age had a different look than anyone else.

The Marquis opens his mouth to Arcs.

How the hell did you get out of the seal tower?

"There's no reason to answer that.Trade secrets. "

Arcs poked his neck at the marquis with such a light slap.

Marquis, I want my sister back.

"This kid licked my mouth...."

While the Marquis was frustrated with Arcs' story, the mercenary's head split in between.

"You seem to be getting along with an adult, but it was a mistake to come here alone?

"You don't know unless you try, do you?

"You slapped me in the mouth a while ago.I regret dying. "

The mercenary head throws a flat back.

"Head, hostages!

"I don't want that. No sword, no magic, no kid to take hostage."

Meanwhile, Arc... returns his notch to the Marquis and holds his sword in both hands.

It is not a kingdom-style fine swordsmanship that I know very well.The sword itself may be a short-sword, but it is unusual for a nobleman or a nobleman's younger brother to take such a stance with the sword.

But why is it like this?

Do you also know such swordsmanship?

The mercenary's head also made an interesting voice, "Hmm..."

"Take a (full) stance.Was that an act?

"It's before it hits.My uncle will kill me on that day. "

"Ha, then don't hesitate!

"─!!

The mercenary's head fills the distance from Arcs at once and slashes it.

On the other hand, Arcs leaned and pardoned the sword, surprised at the speed with which he stepped in.

Gu!

"Heh, that's not all!

... a slashing with a big sword from the huge body.How many children can calmly pass on that feeling of oppression... no matter how old they are.

He is shuffling and parrying the great sword, which is swinging down from above many times.

"Wow...."

While such a battle was being waged, I noticed that voice was leaking.

Arcs hates to stop there and starts moving around the room.

Even though there are furnishings such as chairs, sofas, and tables, there are endless vertical and horizontal cuts and rides.Avoid mercenary head sword fire by flying around with a well-rhythmed and skilled sense of balance.Standing on one leg, or bending down, does not cause you to lose your posture.

It would be a gift of inexorable training.

Speaking of mercenary heads, Arcs is deliberately fleeing to someone with furniture and accessories, so his movement is restricted.

However, there was still a historical difference between adults and children.

Arm Length, Weapons Reach, Physical Ability.

No matter how well he defends himself, those factors keep Arcs from attacking.

Instead, you can see that you're being pressurized.

"Whoa, whoa!

"K, so... this..."

"Ha - Your defenses seem to be at one end, but you can't beat them unless you attack them!Whoa!!

"Damn it... ghh!?

The mercenary head pierces the gap Arks showed and kicks.

I was able to defend myself with my sword in time, but I wasn't able to parry it, so I was struck and rolled over the room.

But Arcs stood up immediately and stood up with his sword.

Such a mercenary would hit him with a sword in the head.

"You're licking me like a kid!This is different after all!Ah!? "

"Damn it...."

"Fish like you!All you have to do is make it smaller and smaller in the corner like a fish, so it doesn't get in the way of a strong one!!

"Gh, uhh..."

"This incompetent kid!!

"Gah...!?

Arcs rolls on the floor with a soft beating, but stands up again.

Looking at him like that, I think.

With such a strong opponent ahead,

"Why...?

How can he stand up?

"Why...?

How can he hold a sword?

I soon gave up knowing that I was inferior to a mercenary.

Yes, because the "tip of the line" that I believe in has shown me the answer to the battle.

Because I believed it without doubt.

... it's obvious that you can't beat your opponent if your strength, strength, and sword strength are inferior.

Yet he stood up.

Yeah, despite the pain.

Yeah, despite the wounds.

As Arks' defenses were delayed, the mercenary's head shook a large blow.The defenses were in time, but instead Arcs was blown away.

Roll over the large guest room floor to the wall.

"Hah, hah..."

Has your breath risen from a series of intense movements?

My body is full of scratches and it is painful to watch.

That's why I couldn't stand it and screamed.

"Stop it!

I want you to give up like that.

You can give up now.

Arcs pointed his suspicious expression at us.

……

"You know I can't beat you anymore if I'm as strong as you are!?Stop it!

"I'm glad you're worried, but if you stop here, you can't..."

That's how Arcs smiles at his mouth.

Why can you eat so much?

If they don't, they'll find out. Still.

Why, why. Why is that?

Can you stand up like that?

"- I won't give up.I'll scratch your feet, even if they say you have less magic, even if they say you're incompetent... "

"Ah......"

Hearing his words, he remembers the words of his father that were heard one day.

Even if you see the "tip", it's not absolute.

Even if what you see from it is your defeat, you can change the outcome unless you give up.

Never forget that.

"Hahahahaha!I'll make you laugh! This kid's so cool!But maybe it's time to think about it.You can see you're invincible, right?I'm talking about a princess. "

"That's why it's so easy to give up...."

"Then die first."

The mercenary head slowly approached Arcs with his sword on his head.

"Don't bother me... head"

"Hey, okay, come on."

When the Marquis glanced and smiled brutally.

In front of the wipe, one of the "tips" blinked.

"Ah...."

The sight leaks a voice.

I didn't need to stop him anymore.

"... I'm sure you're right, even if you do it straight ahead, you're not going to be an enemy.I knew it from the beginning. "

"Then be quiet..."

"That's why I hid it all the way through."

That's what Arcs said, pointing to the mercenary's head.

It's not the same shape as a normal index finger extension. It has a thumb up.

"Ah? What is that?

"Is this it? Say this is"

Ah?

"Thank you for busting my ass."

Arcs laughs hard and invincibly, muttering something.

――■■■■ ■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

"Maho!?But with such little magic, you think I can handle it!

"■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ─ Uneeeeeee, I'm going to blow your brains off!

Van!

The sound of dryness echoes indoors.

I couldn't react to the magic of Arks and the mercenary's head.

No, no one will be able to react to that blow.

I didn't even know why the mercenary's head had been knocked down.

Arcs puts the tip of his index finger against his mouth and blows out the smoke that was smoking at his fingertips.

"This magic really helps.I have to thank Sue later. "

That's what Arcs said and stood up in exchange for the body of a broken mercenary head.
