Chapter 79: Showing your real ability

It’s different to the slaughter in Shiromu.

Enemies and allies are breathing roughly and there’s a unique weight in the air.

With the hate each side has for each other, they’re dyeing the beautiful capital in blood.

However, far from getting swallowed up in the state of the war, the man that instead took the initiative to raise the signal of humanity’s counterattack was him.

“I’m not interested in any foocking great cause of war. However, you assholes got involved with my country’s property. Get gouged out and die.” (Farga)

He goes past.

Like the wind, he just goes past crowds of cyclopes.

The cyclopes can’t catch that man, because the moment they try to catch that man going past, parts of their bodies get gouged out in a circle shape.

“Wha wha, what this human!” (Cyclops)

“Ouuuch!” (Cyclops)

“Can’t catch!” (Cyclops)

His spear flashes.

No one could perceive his movements.

“Don’t put me together with a foocking sweet ass like my stupid younger brother who avoids war and killing. My body and soul has the resolve to be dirtied in filthy blood.” (Farga)

The moment I blink once, multiple cyclops heads vanish.

It’s my first time seeing Farga’s killing.

I can see the coldness of absolute zero and intensity in his killing, that he’s never shown Forna or me before.

Splashes of blue blood get reflected on the sun over and over again.

Shop signboards, white tables in open cafes and buildings made of white stone that people would normally walk by, get dyed in bright blue.

That was a sight that made both allies and enemies shudder in fear.

“Hohou. To think I of all people would tremble in excitement. Hahahahahaha, interesting! I will personally pulverise you!” (?)

However, there was one person that laughed at seeing Farga’s fighting.

He’s the High Cyclops demon that called himself Redrock.

“Ooh, Redrock-sama is personally going out!”

“Redrock-sama, you are a general. Didn’t prince Ragaia tell you to refrain from one to one fights?”

Redrock kept smiling. It doesn’t look like he’s even bothered to listen to his subordinates.

And then, standing in front of Farga that just kept pushing his way through cyclopes, he swung his metal rod to attack him.

An intense whirlwind arose as he swung his metal rod.

“Haaahahhahhahhahh! Now, come! First prince of the Elfarshia Kingdom, Scarlet Dragon Killer Farga Elfarshia! Let us fight fairly!” (Redrock)

The general suddenly came out and attacked him.

From prince Ragaia’s perspective, he would probably think he’s a ‘fool’.

Of course, Farga is the type of guy to say this is ‘worthless’, but since the opponent is a general, it would be better to take his head.

“Hmph.” (Farga)

He might not be interested in a one to one fight itself, but he pushed on straight ahead to take Redrock’s head.

However, at that moment.

“Wait, prince Farga!” (?)

A man’s voice resounded throughout the capital.

Farga reflexively stopped his feet.

Redrock looked to his side too.

Then, they saw a man dyed in bright red blood, standing unsteadily with a sword in one hand, despite not having any power in his arms.

“Please leave him to me.” (?)

That was Barts, who was struck by Redrock.

“Barts, you………… what are you saying. Are you foocking sane?” (Farga)

“Hou, to think you could stand after taking one of my hits, young man. However, do you still want to fight me with those injuries?” (Redrock)

It’s just as they say. What can you do with those injuries?

I don’t know why you’re so stubborn, but at that rate, you’re just going to die in vain you know?

However, blowing away all those comments, Barts shouted.

“What the hell are you doing, humanity’s great allied forces! Are you worn out from something of this level!? Are you going to depend on the prince’s power from just this much despair!? Don’t you think that’s pathetic!?” (Barts)

That wasn’t just to the people near him. Through the reflection, he pointed those words to his allies across the whole capital.

However, no one could respond to that.

In the first place, most of the soldiers already lost their fighting spirit, and are just new soldiers trying to depend on Farga and the others that just appeared.

However,

“Being a new soldier doesn’t mean sheet! We chose this path of our own will! What about it you say? It means that we’re pathetic enough to be worried about by that idiot who started working at a restaurant and said he wasn’t interested in the path of a champion or war!” (Barts)

………… Is he talking about me when he said idiot……

“Listen up, remember this! Humanity’s great allied forces aren’t just soldiers to fight in wars! They’re warriors that are supposed to crush despair that assaults humanity! And yet, why are we falling to despair first!? It’s our job to show our real ability against the despair that assaults us!” (Barts)

Those words of encouragement were too clumsy that it suited Barts.

He’s probably trying to cause a blast in them, but how did it go?

However, everyone became speechless and stayed silent.

No matter what you say, no one will stand up so simply.

It’s not like everyone is that strong.

There’s a limit to what you can move with just words.

However,

“Shut up, young man. Don’t interrupt a supreme one to one fight.” (Redrock)

The enemy can’t read the atmosphere enough to let him keep going with his speech.

Redrock raises his metal rod and brings it down, trying to crush Barts under it.

“Tch!” (Farga)

Farga’s reacted a moment too late, and he didn’t make it in time.

However,

“O……… oooooooooooooooh-!” (Barts)

“Wha-!” (Redrock)

“Raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!” (Barts)

Barts raises his sword together with a war cry, catching Redrock’s strike with his sword, despite the violent metallic sound and shock wave.

“Wha-, my strike was! You caught it…… who is he…… you still had that much power, huh! However, my next strike will…………” (Redrock)

Redrock unintentionally opened his eyes widely, but he released a follow-up attack without a moment’s delay.

As if saying the first time was a fluke and there will be no second time, he released another merciless strike.

However,

“Zuaaaaa!” (Barts)

“Wha, what, young man!” (Redrock)

Barts released another swing with all his might, but this time, instead of just stopping Redrock’s metal rod, he even flicked off Redrock, together with his metal rod.

“Barts…… you……” (Farga)

“Impossible! Vice chief Redrock was! By such an unsteady brat!”

“Unbelievable, even though that thin sword should have easily broken, it even forced vice chief back!”

“Who the hell is that brat!”

Farga is somewhat happily chuckling at Barts’ unexpected counterattack.

Redrock’s eyes went round from the unexpected event and muttered while opening and closing his hand multiple times that probably became numb.

“Young man…… it seems…… you transformed dramatically from this near-death situation…… After being in many battlefields, you see people grow from those kinds of experiences. Fuh…… this is why I can’t stop fighting…… my chest throbs, and my blood gets excited!” (Redrock)

Barts showed a counterattack from a worn out state.

That was such a refreshing sight that even my chest became hot.

He didn’t just use words. With his reliable figure, he showed his own will.

“Shalt! Can you hear me! The princess and commander Galva are in a situation where they can’t take command! The one that has to command us…… is you! I’ll defeat this guy! We can’t let them say that we only won because the prince, Ura and the others came for us! Why did we throw up all that blood for until now! At this rate, we’re going to get made fun of by Velt!” (Barts)

No one could stay silent after seeing that figure.

“…………… Kuku, that guy.”

“Yeah, it’s just as you say.”

“Good grief! I would feel ashamed for life if I got laughed at by such a problem child!”

“Damn it! I just have to do it!”

“It’s to avenge Sea and Gau! Let’s fight for their sake too!”

“Guys, let’s go!”

“Oooooooh!”

That spread throughout the capital in an instant, and people from everywhere were filled with fighting spirit.

“Alright, Barts! From now on, I will be taking command!” (Shalt)

Shalt answers while raising his fist up strongly.

“Archer and magic unit, move back to the headquarters in the back for now! Seventh and third unit, collect the remaining soldiers in the surroundings and join up with Hawk and the others on the front line to back them up! Eighth and ninth unit, follow prince Farga! Soldiers, counterattack!” (Shalt)

“““““““Ooooooooooooooooooh—!”””””””

The morale of the soldiers that start moving one after the other, is even more intense than before the start of the war.

Furthermore, they’re not going to get ecstatic and make their own decisions like before this time.

Following the instructions Shalt gave, everyone showed more than enough power.

“O, ooh, commander Shalt is amazing!”

“Haha, as expected of Shalt-sama! He immediately made a comeback!”

Shalt’s unit’s eyes are shining from seeing their commander get an unexpected, exceptional promotion and his show of power.

However, Shalt’s expression isn’t showing any complacency.

That’s because the fact that the situation is disadvantageous hasn’t changed, and just one of his directions can make a countless amount of allies victim.

Above all,

“Gyaaaaaa!”

“Oh no, the, these guys, guaaa!”

Now that’s he’s taking command, the likelihood of them aiming at him is higher.

“You’re getting too noisy~, you damn youngsters~.”

That came from a High Cyclops unit that rushed into the place Shalt is commanding from.

“Kuh, you are here already, huh.” (Shalt)

“So you’re the general, youngster~. But you really are out of luck for our High Cyclops melee specialized hundred man unit to be near you.” (High Cyclops)

Since he was suddenly chosen, the guards around Shalt to let him take command were insufficient.

Shalt realized that and tried to harden the forces around him as fast as possible, but the enemy was faster.

There’s a crowd of High Cyclopes, that despite being humanoid, have larger builds and breath more brutally.

There won’t be a single person left if that crowd all came at once.

However…………

“Now, I have this head! Remember this! I am the leader of the melee specialized hundred man unit~, pugerazudaio”

Before he could name himself, that High Cyclops was bisected.

That strike was like the flash of a gale.

“I hate humans………… however, if it is for the sake of my lord’s friends, I will not hesitate at all!” (Musashi)

Musashi.

With the name of a peerless swordsman, she arrived, crossing over the difference in races.
