Chapter 142 Live

What is the language that I speak in this world? To speak of the truth, I can understand the difference of this world’s letters and kanjis but I can’t really understand the difference of this world’s language and Japanese language.

However, only this I understand. This ogre way of speaking was clearly of different kind. And not only that. That difference was something that makes me feel somehow nostalgic.

“…That Demon King’s message inside the magic mirror you guys sent to the Great Human Alliance Army’s camp, I can’t imagine he is that kind of ogre from them.” (Velt)

“I was the one who wrote that message.” (Zetsuki)

“I see .I mean, You’ve worked hard huh.” (Velt)

The life or death battle of different dimension between the heroes and an ogre that unfolded before our eyes. Originally, I should be captivated by that spectacle, be anxious of the world’s fate, and devote myself to believing in Forna and the Heroes’ victory but there’s something different that appeared inside my mind instead.

“How is it, Vel-kun. That is Demon King Kishin. You see, I can feel something similar from Kii-kun to my daughter and you.” (Yubamensch)

Maman whispered into my ear.

I only squinted my eyes as I sorted my heart.

“Fuhahahaha, what’s wrong? To this me body that kind of attack is of no problem you know?” (Kishin)

Holding his short swords in a reverse grip, the ogre danced.

“I’ll go! Gyanza, with me! Soaring Lightning Speed!”

“It’s sad. I’m so sad, Kishin. The regret that we can’t understand each other! Holy Magic ・Divine Flame!”

Forna did a diversion with her lightning speed, while my trauma, Gyanza sent her ruthless flame to Kishin.

However, as if Kishin already known their attacks beforehand, he avoided it with not a spec of useless movement.

“Fufufufu, very close huh.” (Kishin)

No, it’s not close at all. You obviously avoided it with much leisure.

“I’ll mince your entrails!”

“Let me beat you up!”

But, as if knowing that Kishin would avoid it, two Heroes came from behind him.

“Demonic and Divine Beheading Sword!”

If I’m not mistaken he is the Dark Swordsman Reville?

“Spiritualization!”

And Spirit Warrior Hyule?

I didn’t really know the both of them but they maybe in the same class as Forna.

Furthermore,

“Take this! Shooting Star!”

I thought they were about to get caught, but seemed they were saved? Was his name Meteor Bow Gaje?

Holding a massive golden bow and arrow, he was the biggest among the heroes, releasing barrage of arrows made by mana.

As Forna and Gyanza did a diversion, the other three heroes attacked?

It was such a splendid, hard to stomach full course. If it was me I’d get full by just the relishes.

However,

“Fuh, so even after hearing the demonic tune of this me, you still haven’t learned your lesson? Then, time for encore! Resound, my soul!” (Zetsuki)

At that moment, the shape of the two short swords changed. The two short swords overlapped, then made a weapon with the shape of V.

A boomerang? No, it’s different!

“Flyi----------ng, V! Are you Ready?” (Kishin)

It has strings attached!

“Rock n’ Roll Fantasyyyyy!” (Kishin)

It’s not a weapon! It’s an instrument! Moreover, a guitar!

It’s something that I’ve never seen in this world, something only from the previous world. It’s a lightning colored Flying V guitar.

“Here he comes, Vel-chan! The Demon King will unleash his violent music battle techinique!” (Yubamensch)

--------The Rock Demon King.

“I will make you all who disturbing freedom to fly beyond the sky!” (Kishin)

It was something that combined explosion of sound and godly skill, the solo guitarist live performance.

Riding inside the roaring of rhythm and medley, Kishin’s shout itself became something like a shockwave and ruptured the space, blowing off the heroes.

“Leville! Hyule! Gaje! What amazing power! Even my magic armament got cancelled off!” (Forna)

“This noisy sound, it’s something impossible to understand for a human. We have to end this even despite we still unable to understand each other, it’s so sorrowful!” (Gyanza)

Even as their comrades got blown off, they used it to fuel their anger, Forna then instantly flew towards Kishin. While Gyanza was swayingly creeping up to his rear.

“But he is full of openings! Be smashed, Thunder Emperor Kick!”

Forna did a lightning-speed high kick. The kick that combined all her speed, energy, and senses made a splattering sound as it smashed Kishin’s face.

“Chronos Crusade!”

Note: An anime name reference

Gyanza’s godly speed cross slashed down. Once, that fearsome technique cut down Ruga down to small pieces in an instant before. But maybe because Kishin’s body was way tougher than that of Ruga’s, Kishn didn’t get minced up at all.

However, it made his blood splattered around in a large quantity like a fountain.

“He, hey!” (Velt)

Could it be, he’s going to be defeated?

No matter how I see it, it was a critical hit. However, why his subordinate Zetsuki didn’t move?

Why was Maman just chuckling at that?

“My rock won’t be stopped by anyone!” (Kishin)

It’s abnormal.

“He is! Wha, his performance still hasn’t stop.” (Velt)

The hand Kishin used to play the guitar wasn’t stopping.

The ear rupturing sound of the guitar still enthusiastically singing on. Not only that…

“This me will return matter how many times! Me the one who is called the Rock Demon King. Rock never dies! It will revive no matter how many times it takes!” (Kishin)

What is he talking about?

As he was playing enthusiastically, his wounds were…

“He, hey! Despite bleeding that much, his wounds are healing… as much as he is singing!” (Velt)

That’s right, his wounds are healing. Is it a recovery magic? A self regeneration power? What the hell is that power.

And, why the hell his performance still hasn’t stop?

No, more than that, this zealous heat! What is this atmosphere that feels like as if he is clashing his dissatisfaction to the world?

“Don’t get in my way! Let it Ex ・Plo・ De! Bomb it out! Bomb it out! BOMBEEEEEEER!” (Kishin)

It was at that moment. A big explosion that covered even half of the gigantic Hannyala’s topmost floor happened, sweeping Forna’s and Gyanza’s body inside the explosion flame.

“Aaaah!”

“Forna, water element magic, shield us!”

Both of them are save. However, scars can be seen on her beautiful skin.

“Forna! What the hell, what the fuck is that bastard!”

No, well, maybe rather than hearing what I said they must be understood what I meant instead. However, I can’t help but called out.

“That is Kishin. He filled emotions to his words, turning into song and then materialize it.” (Yubamensch)

“Wha, what the! You, you said materializing his words!”

“I don’t quite understand it myself though, but it seems there are also some words which is forbidden so he can’t directly give order to his enemies like [die] for example, but Kii-kun is able to turn the words he uttered into reality in general.” (Yubamensch)

Turning his words into reality? It’s not something like walk the talk or acting in accordance to one’s word you know?

If he actually could do that…

“This scream will shake the world! Go vibin’! World Vibration!” (Kishin)

Vibration? Shaking? This, this is earthquake!

“Oh, ooooohhhh!”

Huge! It’s not just on the level of making the earth rumbled. The magnitude could even make one difficult to stand.

This earthquake! It’s impossible right? Can he actually make an earthquake?

“How dare you did that to everyone! Demon King Kishin! We all definitely going to surpass you!”

“Hoh, so you’ve recovered from your wounds, Hero!” (Kishin)

At that moment, tearing apart the gales bearing glittering sword n his hand, a single hero dashed off to Kishin.

That Hero, is the True Hero Roa! The hope of entire human race!

“Fire, earth, thunder, wind, water, light, void!” (Roa)

“Hohoh, ain’t that cool! It’s as if each of the spirits of magic kneel to you.” (Kishin)

“All eight elements combine into one! Ultimate Slash!” (Roa)

“However, I won’t lose, here me go! Gather all the hopes, Crush Crush!” (Kishin)

It was surely the slash that will break through all the despair. The Demon race, the demihumans, it was surely the strength that will bury all the enemies of human race no matter how many they are.

“It, it can’t be, impossible!” (Roa)

The strongest sword that the hope of human race has unleashed was smashed into pieces.

“You’re really, haven’t you understand anything from our previous battle?” (Kishin)

“Ugh, but, I won’t give up! Even if my sword has broken apart, our heart of justice is unbreakable!” (Roa)

“Hmph, stupid person who don’t even understand his place!” (Kishin)

He shifted from a chain of tempestuous music performance into a more brutal one. It’s as if the band live performance getting more aroused, like the Rock n’ Roll guitarist swung their guitar and started hitting it.

And just by that, whirlwinds occurred.

“Violence rock is also no problem!” (Kishin)

“Ugh, the crest in my eye, bring strength to me!” (Roa)

I don’t quite understand it but, the chosen hero is using that kind of power?

Note: maybe Velt commented like this because it’s like in the chuunibyou case where they have power in their eyes?

Suddenly, a small magic circle like crest appeared in the Hero’s eye.

“It’s futile. That eye crest’s power. It is a fearsome skill where one can copy the magic one has seen once. A human maverick. It is forbidden body condition in which might appear in one person among five hundred.” (Kishin)

“However, if I can’t completely decipher your power there won’t be any chance at all! As long as I can’t see through this power, human race won’t have any future!” (Roa)

“Decipher it? It is your mistake! Music isn’t something to decipher. You have to feel it. Even if one day you can decipher it, if you can’t understand musicianship, the Rock Demon King… no, the Rock God won’t smile upon you at all.” (Kishin)

Even if the Hero lost his sword he still attacked Kishin’s guitar with his bare hands. The avoided attack proceeded on as a fist shockwave and crashed into the wall, smashing it up.

“Fufu, it’s the first time I’m seeing him but, so that is the True Hero-chan. He is quite good even while so young. Even when not combining his strength with his comrades, he still able to defeat Kaizer and Sha-chan.” (Yubamensch)

“However, Kishin-sama’s long combat experience and also his qualities as the Demon King himself are different. His strength is enough to even compete in the first or second place among the Seven Great Demon Kings.” (Zetsuki)

I bet that’s the case. He is certainly strong. But why? I just can’t honestly praise him.

“Guah!” (Roa)

At that moment, the sharp point of Kishin’s flying V guitar hit Roa’s head.

“It’s same as before huh, Neo Hero.” (Kishin)

“Ugh, Ki, shin.” (Roa)

Roa’s head got smashed. Blood spewed out, he fell to his knees as his hair drenched red. It’s no good. I understand it too now.

Frankly saying, they were clashing with such unimaginable amount of force since before. But it’s actually one-sided.

In short, there’s a gap between them. A gap so overwhelming between Kishin and the Ten Heroes of Light.

“Now, it’s time for finale!” (Kishin)

The shape of the guitar got cancelled, and instead of the previous short swords it changed into a spear.

“The time of this performance is only three minutes. However, even while he is able to injure his audience within that three minutes, he can’t kill them. Is that the condition? And once his performance came to an end…” (Yubamensch)

This is bad! The spear, it’s aiming at Roa’s heart and about to pierce it…

“Stop it! Murata-kun! Step away from my brother!”

At that moment, a lone girl voice echoed.

Kishin suddenly stopped by that voice then turned around.

She was Ayase. As she supported her own hand, she walked limply. So even she got defeated?

But the problem wasn’t that.

“Fufufufufu. Ayase, no, Princess Arusha. I’ve been holding it since a while you know? Stop calling me by that name.” (Kishin)

“Why? …why, how can you… do something like this…”

“Of course, it’s also a surprise for me. To think that, even Ayase got reincarnated into this world, became the sister of the Hero, then appeared before me.” (Kishin)

Kishin stopped his hands that aimed for Roa, he smiled as he turned back. His expression, it was truly like the laughing face of a devil.

However, Ayase then said.

“Everyone is here in this world! Teacher too, Biyama-san too, Kagami, Miyamoto, and then… Asakura-kun too! Asakura-kun is here, he came to this continent!” (Arusha)

The sorrowful shout of the cool beauty Ayase.

“No way, why is it like this.” (Ayase)

“It’s what they call the difference of a musician I guess.” (Kishin)

I can understand it after seeing that. Ayase didn’t fight. Her fighting spirit has broken.

However, Kishin didn’t lose his calm by Ayase.

“Fuh, even so, Ryuuma huh… it’s so nostalgic…” (Kishin)

On the contrary, Forna, with wounds covered all over her body, hit the cheek of ayase who was losing her composure.

“Arusha! Do you know the current situation? I don’t know the circumstances but, hold onto yourself! In this battle, our comrades, Velt, the fate of all human race hangs in this battle!” (Forna)

As if agreeing with Forna’s scolding, the heroes raised up one after another.

“Princess, you previously also showed that same reaction when fighting against demihumans’ Shinsengumi. However, this is the battlefield. I don’t know what happened to the two of you previously, but we are at war.”

Said the Dark Swordsman Leville,

“Arusha. Don’t forget our goal! If things can be resolved by talking it out, everything would have been solved long ago! The only ones who can defeat this guy are no one else but us!”

Said the Spirit Warrior Hyule

“Missy. The fate maybe hard and painful. But we will support you! We will break through this together!”

Said the Meteor Bow Gaje,

And then,

“That’s right. We can’t lose. The only one who can stop him here right now is only us! That’s the only thing we can do!”

The blood smeared Hero Roa stood up.

That spirit to do what he must do, Ayase should be able to understand it well.

“I understand. I also can understand what you’re trying to do. But… that makes it… why, it feels like the same with Kagami-kun and Miyamoto-kun… even he too…” (Arusha)

But you see, it’s not like that. Things indeed gone like that but, it’s not only that. I can understand what Ayase was feeling to the point I felt hurt myself.

“You got good vigor, heroes. And Ayase, It’s already too late. I will banish the humans. From this very world. That goes for you too. As one would expect, comparing someone from more than seventy years ago, a girl who was once just a classmate for only one year, moreover she wasn’t that much friendly either, against our ogre demon race’s future. Whichever I would choose was already decided.” (Kishin)

Despite his screwed around way of talk, his eyes were strong, they already directly pointed to a path he would take.

“The world’s history will change. Today it is, the day it will happen!” (Kishin)

Aah, he seems going to go down to an absurdly tiresome life again…

“No, stop, don’t do this! Save us… Asakura-kun please, save us!” (Arusha)

Not even caring other people’s eyes, Ayase shouted out as her tears fell down unable to endure the harshness of reality, her frigid like strength had already left out of her.

Just like a teenage girl would, Ayase showed something she shouldn’t have, even to the heroes, she showed her own frailness.

Was that the reason?

My feet so naturally walked forward.

“Stop this, Miruko” (Velt)

------------------------------------!!!!

Everyone turned their head hearing my voice.

“…Ve, Velt! Wait, you! Why, why are you here!” (Forna)

“You!”

“He is, Princess Forna’s”

“Wait, why is he here!”

“Who is he?”

“Velt Jeeha-san”

Aah, they’re surprised. Forna looked livid even now. I ended up coming to this dangerous place after all. But I can’t help it. Because I too, can’t just ignore this.

“A, aa, a, Asakura…kun” (Arusha)

“Yo” (Velt)

I passed by the side of the sobbing Ayase, then walked to where Kishin as he darted his eyes around.

“… Who are you?” (Kishin)

“My name is Velt Jeeha. I am, very yankee.” (Velt)

“Fuh, ……kukuku… ahahahahahahahahahaha!” (Kishin)

Note: they talked in English or Japanized English.

Kishin laughed at my answer. It wasn’t a laugh to fire up the fight against the heroes but as if a child instead.

“I can understand even without hearing it. It’s just like what Ayase said, those twisted eyes I can remember it even if one hundred years to pass. Kukuku, right? Ryuuma. How are you?” (Kishin)

“Very fine, can I just answer it like that? Right? Miruko. You never stop using those crappy words huh.” (Velt)

“Fuh, you too alright.” (Kishin)

“Yea, me too, really.” (Velt)

It was not only my encounter with the Demon King Kishin, but also my reunion with Murata Miruko.
