I called out, facing behind. A beastkin girl with fox ears. The clothes she wear are somewhat similar to shrine maiden clothingĀ but there areĀ more exposures than the original one. It is a familiar costume as a republican. She saw me and gave me an okay signal.Ā HerĀ small cute mouth start speaking.
āYeah, Zeno-san ⦠Thank you very much, Iām okay.ā (Kuzuha) āIt was good that we seemed to be in time.ā (Zeno)
⦠I wonder whatās going on in this village.
***
After we return to the commercial guild earlier than planned, we learned that Arge-san came to this village, we are in a hurry chasing her to Rencia. When we came,Ā the usual peaceful Rencia is looking like a monster nest, and right now she was fighting, Kuzuha.
We felt the situation was dangerous. So leaving the searching for Arge-san to Felnote-san, and I will help her (Kuzuha).
āI managed to prevent it (your breath), you really donāt like it do youā Ā () Ā (Zeno, stop talking to monter, you waste me 15 minutes to firgure this out, I think it weird that you talking to Kuzuha or Felnote with this tone)
Just a short time ago, the breath of a paralysis poison released by a basilisk demon.Ā If weĀ inhales that, it will stop our movement. That would be fatal.Ā Somehow I blew it off with wind magic, but the situation is very bad.
āGishiii~iā¦!ā (Monter scream)
The face of the basilisk gives an annoying groaning voice. whenever something prevented its breathing, it will make a face like that because it doesnāt like that.
IĀ have never seen this irritation in any monsters.
If you look only at the face, it is a basilisk, a lizard-type demon that lives in the desert region, but the body resembles a wolf-based demon in the forest area and itsĀ tail was smooth like an octopus with a sucker attached. A figure that is too unbalanced, like cutting (Ctrl+X) and pasting (Ctrl+V) many different monsters. There are countless creatures that may be called monsters, not just one or two animals. Iāve already killed some of them, but there are still a lot of them. To be honest, I am short of hands (ways to attack).
āNo matter how many I defeat, they just keep coming, ⦠ku~ ⦠get out of my way, I need to help Arge-san ā¦!ā (Kuzuha) āDonāt worry, Felnote-san will do itā (Zeno) āKu ⦠itās useless, there are too many of them! Thank you for helping me but please run away already!ā (Kuzuha)
Kuzuha doesnāt seems to be hurt, she must be strong to battle with this many montersĀ but she seems tired (T.N: low magical power, low MP for short). And Also when I heard the name Arge-san, if this girl is a acquaintance of that Arge-san, thereās no way I gonna leave her alone.
āIt would be dangerous for you to use anymore magical power. Leave it to me.ā (Zeno)
⦠However, isnāt this situation bad?
Even if it says that, I donāt have any strong skills, after all I am a merchant.Ā Un-like Felnote-san and Arge-san, Iām not strong enough to fight. The surrounding demons temporarily retreated because they disliked the paralysis poison, but it will be a matter of time before they attack again.
āThere is no other choice, I must do it now.āĀ (Zeno) ā⦠What are you planning to do?āĀ (Kuzuha) āUhm ā¦Ā Iām trying to get through like a merchantāĀ (Zeno)
Because no matter how you look at me, Iām weak, even I said leave it to me. Of course, Kuzuha-chan will doubt me. Even if I says to survive like a merchant, non-merchant people will not understand.Ā AllĀ of our opponents are demons, they arenāt interested in money.
Still, I took out money from my bosom. The coins rub against each other, and make sounds that are earful for us (merchant).
āWait ⦠What are you plan to do with that money, they are demons !?āĀ (Kuzuha) āThey arenāt opponents to use, arenāt they?āĀ (Zeno)
It is faster to do it than to explain.Ā When we do this trick, we need large amount of coins. Gold, silver, copper. I throw three kinds of coins all at once into the sky.
āYouĀ are the brightness of our life. Become a glowing light. I purchase youā (Zeno)
Common world currency with the name Cyril. There are certain reasons why this currency is used in all countries.
Thatās because of the highly advanced anti-counterfeiting that was put in every Cyril coin. If you give it even a little magical power, it will blink faintly. Because of such magic, this coin is used in every country. Just shining, it is a special glow. It is a very complicated magic that light quantity and color change in a certain time, and no-one can fake this method.Ā In other words, It was something like MagicĀ Artifact.
And the Cyril coinās ability isnātĀ anti-counterfeit.Ā The Cyril coin is an excellent magical reservoir that is not suitable for its small size.
And only merchant skill that can draws out the magical power put in the Cyril coins. Naturally, the coin with which the magical power is drawn out becomes a simple metal and loses its value as an asset. It is only when we are in a live or death situataion that we have to use this magic.
When Arge-san helped me last time, I didnāt have time to use this, but this time it is different. The magic is glowing intense light in the sky around gather arround us. Magical power from the coins is enormous,Ā it is also difficult to control. Even so that magical power can be bought with money. I gather the magical power pulled out from Cyril.
āGold is the life of merchant, even so It canāt compare with human life. Therefor I will use its protect this childās life ⦠O The wind of turningā
And the magical power brought the destruction to all the enemies in the surroundings. Demons that look like random cut and pasted of many demons. The wind even detroy the scenery aroound us. After passing away, we are the only ones left.
ā⦠Sign, that was my revenue.āĀ (Zeno)
I murmured, looking at the coins that lost their magical power and fell to the ground. I used most of the profits I gained in Sakuranomiya, but it canāt be helped. Letās think that it is a necessary expenses. (T.N: poor Zeno, in many senses)
āWell then letās go, Arge-san is also my acquaintanceāĀ (Zeno) ā⦠you, you are the one Arge-san was looking forā¦?ā āYeah, apparently it seems like thatā
āSomeday I will return your favorā Arge-san said that to me when we broke up. (or when we last met) (T.N: I donāt know if I can use broke up here, they are not couple just travel together) Attually, Iām fine with that, Arge-san donāt need to do anything. And then, I reached out to Kuzuha-chan.
āā¦That isā¦?ā
Suddenly, there is something in the corner of my sight. As Iām looking up,Ā I saw something like a black shadow flying away in the sky, lightly lit in the moon.
āA bird ⦠No, a bat?ā āZeno-san, whatās wrong?ā āOh no, itās nothingā
Although I concern, right now our first priority is meet up with Felnote-san and Arge-san. I grabbed Kuzuha-chanās hand and lead her to the carriage (Zeno plan to let Kuzuha rest first).\nTranslator Corner:
My bad, last time I read from google translate, I mistake Kuzuha is over power that she can perfect solo the demons army. But she only isnāt get injure yet, she already tired (run out of MP). Felnote and Kazuha is still bad-ass but they donāt have cheat power like Arge, they combat with willpower and tactic.
Iām really suprised with this chapter, I thought Zeno was relly weak, turn out, he isnāt that bad. Last time I skimp though Google Translate, I misunderstand alot.\n<figure class="wp-caption alignnone" data-shortcode="caption" id="attachment_5984" style="width: 1748px"><figcaption class="wp-caption-text"> [Next]</figcaption></figure>
