Episode 90 Enemy Attack
If some terms are changed let me know. I had to install Windows again and lost my dictionary.
After a hearty meal of fish, Nanami and I decided to go to bed early to prepare for tomorrow. I slept in the cockpit of Viktor, and Nanami slept in the cockpit of Vajra.
“Nanami, we’re leaving early tomorrow, so we’re going to bed.”
“Yeah, I know.”
“Then why are you following me?”
“We used to sleep together before…….Why don’t we sleep together now?”
“No, the cockpit’s too small for two people.”
“We’ll be fine if we stick together.”
“I don’t want you to get a……backache.”
When I said this, Nanami happily crossed her arms. Who the hell does she think she is?
When Nanami entered the cockpit with me, she squeezed closer than she should have.
“You don’t have to squeeze so tightly, there’s plenty of room.”
“Nanami likes this position.”
“It’s hard for me to sleep…….”
I complained, but Nanami didn’t move a muscle, as if she was pretending not to listen.
“Yuta……do you remember the first day we met?”
“Yeah, I remember when we met at that slaver’s house.”
“At that time, Yuta looked so radiant.”
“Why is that, was I wearing something shiny?”
“No, I don’t know…….I had a gut feeling that you’re the one who’s going to change Nanami.”
“Oh, so……I lived up to your expectations?”
“Yes, more than I could have imagined…….Because Nanami is very happy now.”
She said that and hugged me even tighter. It hurt a little bit, but when I saw the innocent expression on her face, I couldn’t refuse, so I let her do what she wanted…
After that, it seems that Nanami and I fell asleep – we were awakened by a loud bang.
“What?”
“Yuta, I’m going to bed…….”
“Nanami, this is no time to sleep. I think they found us.”
When I looked, I saw that there were three magicrafts approaching, and shooting arrows at us as. I’m sure Viktor will be fine, but if this continues the unmanned Vajra will be destroyed…….I hurriedly activated Viktor.
“What, Yuta! What’s wrong?”
“Just hold on tight!”
When the enemy noticed that Viktor was activated, they began to focus their fire on me.
I accelerated to close the distance at once, and struck the body of one of the enemy magicrafts with my fist. There was a dull, heavy thud, and the body of the enemy contorted.
The other two ditched their arrows, drew their swords from their hips and attacked melee. I dodged them and landed a heavy blow on one of their necks with my elbow, and kicked the other one in the leg with my front kick.
When I saw that all three of them had stopped moving, I hurriedly approached Vajra that had been attacked.
“How’s it looking, Nanami, everything okay?”
I asked, concerned as an arrow hit the area around Vajra’s cockpit.
“It looks fine, but……this might not work…….”
What I saw was a deformed Horcrux that was emitting smoke.
“Wow……that’s totally broken.”
“Oh, my God, I can’t reach Jean and the others…….”
“It’s a good thing we decided on the rendezvous point yesterday.”
“Yeah, otherwise we would have failed to join them.”
Anyway, since we had lost contact with Jean and the others, we decided to head for the Duke of Caron’s residence to meet up with them as soon as possible.
It took us half a day to reach the Duke of Caron’s residence from the forest where we were camped.
“What the hell……?”
When we arrived at the Duke of Caron’s mansion, we saw that it had been destroyed.
“Where did everyone go……?”
“I don’t know……”
After checking the area, no one was found, so I didn’t know what was going on.
“I think there was a fight.”
“Yeah, probably…….”
“Oh no……they’re all gone…….”
“There’s no way they’re going to be beaten that easily with Alana and Emina around, and there’s no remnants of the ride carrier or the magicrafts so they should be fine.”
I was pretty sure that Alana and the others wouldn’t be killed…….Now I’m in trouble. I can’t communicate with them, and I don’t know how I’m going to join them…….
