My Death Flags Show No Sign of Ending

Part 2 starts from this time.

“Don’t enter the front! Separate left and right to intercept!”

In the corner of the vast grassland where the normally quiet and idyllic scenery spreads, such an angry sound that cuts through the air echoes.

The main voice is a strong man who wears a white-based armor and constantly gives instructions to the 40 soldiers he follows. But the roar of the hornhead easily drowned it out.

Guoooon, a deep bass scream that rings the ground and shakes to the core of the body.

A lead-colored giant with a body length of 5 meters and a height of over 2 meters. Horn. The hornhead is a ferocious monster that rushes with its rock-hardened horns and head as a weapon.

It looks like a giant rhino in iron armor.

Although it is an omnivorous food, it does not prefer to prey on other animals including humans and monsters. However, since there is no monster with strong territorial consciousness and power that antagonizes the horn head in this area, the territory was expanding steadily to near the people’s living area.

That’s why they are now confronting Hornhead and trying to subdue it.

The biggest threat is the formidable power, which can easily destroy a single house. If humans live properly, they will not be able to live.

Therefore, I’m trying to kill him by pinching from the left and right, but the horn head also threatens the soldiers around him by swinging his long horns and tail.

Although I have slightly injured my hand, it does not slow down my movement. And as the battle prolongs, fellow soldiers are becoming more and more injured.

Fortunately, no one has been seriously injured to the extent that it interferes with the battle, but if we continue to fight in the current state, we may eventually die.

The man who is the captain of the soldier wonders what to do. Suddenly, a small shadow passed by without sound right next to it.

“Wait! It’s dangerous!”

The man who noticed it stops, but a small shadow, the boy’s feet stop No.

Tell the man without looking back.

“It’s a waste of time anymore. Let them all go down. It’s just an obstacle.”

A man with a cold tone Is full of words.

Hayden Stokes, the employer of their soldiers. His son, Harold, pulled out a sword from the scabbard hanging on his waist.

Unlike soldiers who are guarded by iron armor, Harold wears a three-quarter jacket, tight leather pants, and boots that reach the middle of the shin. Stand in front of the horn head.

The soldiers went down and suddenly the attacks from all sides stopped, and Hornhead’s eyes caught Harold.

Growling at Harold, who is quietly closing the distance without stagnation. Finally, Harold’s facial expression changed.

“The weaker the dog, the better it barks.”

Mocking, not fear or tension. His eyes were completely looking down at the horn head.

It may have been a provocation.

Hornhead rushes into a much smaller entity, raising a roaring roar again. Harold does not move and does not show any pretense to avoid the approaching giant.

And at the moment when the distance between them was a few meters left, Harold came forward.

Immediately after, a high-pitched sound is heard. Its true identity is the sound of Harold’s sword and the horn head’s horns colliding at the moment of crossing.

The result of the game was different from the previous one, the scream of the horn head with the color of pain and the horn that symbolized itself cut off from the root.

“Surely blacksmiths flock to the corner of this guy. Well, it’s only a scrap, but collect it.”

Harold doesn’t even glance at the writhing hornhead. I’m just saying that it’s not in my eyes from the beginning.

However, even though it was a painful blow, it was not a fatal injury. The horn head stands up with force on the broken limbs.

What I saw was anger. He barked three times to hit the wrath of wrath.

“Oh, that is !?”

One of the soldiers is surprised at the change in the horn head. The golden light that appears to surround the giant.

It was a magic circle.

There are two types of monsters that can use magic. Either a race that is innately good at magical treatment, or a race that is stronger in each race and can be used acquiredly in the process of growing larger.

This horn head is the latter. It is a proof that it has such outstanding power.

Both front legs pop up. He knocked down his forefoot with the force of trampling the ground.

Starting from there, a crack runs straight to Harold, and the ground rolls up.

“Grand Punisher”

Although it is a large name, it belongs to intermediate magic. It is the magic of the Earth Element system that crushes. Although the formidable power is high, it is easy to see through because it can only attack linearly, and it is not difficult to avoid it if it is far away.

Harold plunges head-on into the Grand Punisher.

And jumping just before being swallowed by the soil wall. Kicking the soil wall attacking from both sides alternately with the right foot and the left foot, run as if running in the air.

Harold, who cut through a distance of about 10 meters, jumped extremely high at the end. To a height that overlooks the horn head.

The sword held by Harold is thundered.

“That’s it for bad foot scratching”

The sword is so energized that it seems like it’s emitting light. Harold swung his sword down without hesitation.

“” Thunderbird “”

A giant thunderbird released from a sword with a roaring sound attacks the hornhead.

A grouse pierced the giant with enough heat to burn the viewer’s eyes.

Harold fell a little later than he landed, as if the horn head collapsed. There are burns and carbonized parts throughout the giant, and smoke is rising from the whole body.

It doesn’t move even when lying down. The life activity of Hornhead was completely stopped.

“There is no use here anymore. Get rid of it quickly”

No sweat, no scratches Harold, who defeated a monster, returns to the carriage as it should be.

It seems that he left the recovery of the horns and the disposal of the corpse.

When the pattern and carriage doors were closed and Harold disappeared, the air surrounding them finally softened.

Exhale all at once as shown.

“One team collects the horns, and the rest of the teams deal with corpses. Work hard! It’s a good job for us who bothered Harold-sama!

A command flies from the captain to tighten the slightly loose air.

As the soldiers began to act swiftly in response to that, the recruits of the first group, who were given relatively easy work, still saw the sight they saw. I couldn’t believe it and asked my senior.

“Is Harold so strong?”

“Oh, by the way, you were the first time.”

p>

Then, Arias, a soldier who was asked that it was unavoidable to be taken aback by the previous scene, smiles bitterly.

“It’s been about three years ago, but Harold volunteered for a subjugation expedition. It was quite capable from that time, but now you can see it.”

>

“But what is a real man? No matter how strong it is, it’s a trace of the Stokes family, so if you should be injured …”

“Well, Captain, In addition, some of the necks will fly. Physically. “

Say that while making a decapitating gesture.

Contrary to the clear narrative, the unrest of the content froze the spine of the recruit.

“It’s not a real man at all …”

“Not really.

Arias tapped the back of the recruit, without fear or anxiety.

The recruits still don’t understand why he can be so calm. But the more experienced you have fought with Harold, the more trust you have.

When Harold volunteered for the expedition, his parents were reluctant. Naturally as a parent who loves his son.

However, when I waved my sword in front of me and used magic, I got permission. At the same time that he fell in love with his talent, he had the speculation that his bravery would increase the fame of the Stokes family.

Harold was thus allowed to accompany the expedition, but that was the first time he had fought a monster. At first, I had a hard time and I had some not-so-small injuries.

However, Harold concealed the fact to his parents when he was injured. In the worst of times, he behaved as if nothing had happened, despite being injured to the point of cracking his bones, and a few days later he went to the Sumeragi territory and did not return until the wound healed.

The exact inside of the chest that it means is known only to Harold, but thanks to that, there is a life saved.

Originally, a punitive expedition is dangerous. Even if the encounter with a strong enemy like the horn head this time is rare, it is not uncommon to take a deep dive in battle and die.

However, since Harold accompanied him on the expedition, the number of serious injuries has decreased and no one has died.

Harold can defeat most monsters, but he denies it in words and tries to protect the soldiers. The bone-cracked injury was also inflicted when a soldier was about to be beaten to death by a monster.

It is clear that it was judged that the probability of getting injured would be high if the prolongation was prolonged.

They were happy and even more disappointed with their concern.

Protected by Harold, which we must protect. And he’s still a kid.

Therefore, many soldiers are breathtaking that they will eventually become strong enough to protect Harold. It’s even becoming a training motivation.

(I’ve accumulated a lot of experience in fighting monsters around here. If possible, I want to go farther and I have to prevent injured people. I still encounter them. There are a lot of monsters that I don’t have, so I want to get data quickly.)

Even if all of Harold’s principles of action survive, I just want to efficiently earn experience points. Even so, it is true that the soldiers are saving their lives.

By the way, the reason I hide my injury is that if my parents find out, I will be prohibited from accompanying the expedition.

The three years of walking while passing by all kinds of things like that have brought about a big change in Harold.

The most important thing is the improvement of fighting ability and mental growth. Thanks to the fact that he continued to fight franticly, he now engages with multiple monsters in a single horse without fear and is killed without danger.

Too brave enough to go to battle, combat madness 《 Berserker
It’s even becoming a symbol of fear as rt> >> .

And one more thing, this is a change around him, not Harold himself. The greatest contributor is the task, Sumeragi.

With his efforts, the time is approaching when LP farming will be in the sunshine.

Harold, who returned to Stokes’s mansion after a two-week round-trip expedition, spared no time to heal his tiredness and jumped on a carriage back to the Sumeragi territory with a task. In this regard, parents have given a favorable interpretation that Harold is enthusiastic about Erica.

When this engagement is broken, I have a heavy stomach when I think about how the two will react, but I decided to forget that it will be.

“How was the negotiation?”

“Successfully proceeded. Now you can start full-scale dissemination work. I can do it. “

The task answers Harold on the top of the Buddha with a smile. Successful progress means that the Stokes family was satisfied with their immediate interests as planned.

Even though it is a concession, the contract fee exemption and the reduction of the usage fee incurred to the farmer when using the LP farming method are exempted, and a part of the tax levied according to the yield is partly. It’s just a matter of returning it to the Stokes family.

This allowed farmers in Stokes territory to practice LP farming with less burden. If LP farming methods that can be harvested in a fast cycle become popular, it will be advantageous for export to other territories and countries, and by increasing profits relatively, it will be possible to pay the heavy tax imposed by the Stokes family without delay.

From Hayden’s point of view, tax revenues will rise without doing anything, so he may have decided that it is not necessary to force himself into the real power of LP farming. Sharing rights isn’t too late even after Harold and Erica have officially married.

“It’s not so easy to carry things”

It’s not something that Zhang himself, who designed to do so, should say. , I sigh unintentionally that my father made a devious choice.

A new topic is sent to Harold, saying that the task is so.

“You have a message from Itsuki”

“Are you ready again?”

” Ah, there is one, like no other, but this time there is another one. I’m inviting you to participate in the fighting competition in Delphito. “

Delphito, and the word fighting competition is familiar. This is because there was an event to win the Delphito fighting competition during the production of “Brave Hearts”.

(It was a specification that hits all human enemy characters. You don’t have to kill each other seriously …)

What that means is a great opportunity to gain a new experience in interpersonal combat. It was the best bait to catch Harold today.

“… Interesting. Let’s participate”

In this way, Harold’s participation in the fighting tournament was decided.
