I don’t think it’s my imagination.
The enemy is slowly getting smarter.
What kind of battle manga is this?
Isn’t the inhabitant of the other world reincarnation thing stupid?
Even the theories of the inhabitants are governed by the government, and the conversations are just templates.
Why do they only think and act properly when it comes to me?
The more remote the area, the more intelligent they seem to be.
Isn’t that unfair?
I’m the only one in hard mode, aren’t I?
During my pilgrimage, I didn’t see anyone I thought was that smart.
“Somehow …… I just feel like the people around me are getting more intelligent since I came here. What do you think Kiara?”
Mil did not speak as she had her attention diverted to the search for the enemy.
“Well. It is true that they are thinking for themselves. That’s what I think.”
Yeah, that’s it …… This doesn’t feel right.
“This a remote region, after all. It is impossible to live in a certain style or pattern.”
“You’ve always been able to think for yourself, haven’t you, brother?”
“Well, It’s kind of a habit.”
“Then I suppose it’s a habit for most people not to think.”
Habit …… culture …… convention …….
“Certainly …… If they don’t think about anything, they can easily adapt when the apostles come out. Rather, it’s more of a hindrance.”
When over technology appears, it is easily accepted.
It is easy to accept when it is obsolete.
The cycle repeats itself.
If you disagree or argue with it, you are eliminated.
Even that is easily accepted.
It is the same with the apostles who are called.
Basically, Japanese people accept anything.
Let me give you a cheat ability.
They accept this too.
They don’t think about the other side.
It satisfies their need for approval.
If people around you rebel against you, they will stay away because they are sensitive to that area, but if the world affirms you, there is nothing to stop you.
In fact, they will actively try to respond to it.
God is one of the reasons why Japanese people are reincarnated.
So I’m special, and I’m off the target.
As I recall, they said something about it being difficult to pinpoint.
“You mean …… the further you get away from the influence of the church and the apostles, the more you think for yourself. Doesn’t it make it that?”
“I suppose so. The frontier is almost completely free from the influence of the apostles. And because of that, you have the right people for your business.”
“You’re right. I’m thankful for that, but it’s a pain in the ass when they’re the enemy ……”
◆◇◆◇◆
In the middle of the conversation, Mil suddenly looked up.
“Something’s approaching the house! It’s going up the wall to the roof!”
I looked at Mil and Kiara and shouted.
“You two, get away from the window! Are you close?”
“Yeah, yeah, …… right above us? We’re on the second floor, right?”
The intruders came in, breaking the windowpane.
Two cat people, followed by two winged people.
They went around from the ground, climbed up to the roof, and then broke into the second floor ……
The intruders pointed their swords at me and shouted.
“There they are!”
What? Did they know that I’m here?
Mil immediately cast a wind blade spell.
She must have chanted it beforehand.
It was instantaneous.
It was a direct hit on one of the cat people, but not enough to stop it.
If we measure her ability as a magician, she’s in the weak category.
It can’t be helped.
The other cat immediately pounced on me.
What an impressive leaping ability, as expected.
There was no time to hesitate.
I accurately shot the killer ray at its head.
With a sizzling sound, the smell of burning wafts through the air.
One of them was taken care of.
They can’t avoid them when they’re jumping.
Now I’ve used up all my cards.
What should I do now ……
If I swing my sword and my power goes off, everything will go down the drain.
What to do? It’s risky, but …… I have no choice but to aim for another shot.
Then a dagger flew from an unexpected angle.
It hit the winged person behind the living cat person.
It hit the other one in succession.
It was the dagger Kiara had thrown.
It was a brilliant throw.
It was unexpected and could not be avoided.
But it didn’t seem to be a fatal wound.
Kiara’s voice echoed.
“Dear Sister, one more!”
“All right!”
Mil strikes the cowering cat person with the slender sword she’s already drawn.
If we push too hard, we’ll get in the way of Mil.
It was impossible for Kiara to take on two winged people by herself.
Just as I was thinking this, the two winged people collapsed, groaning, and began to convulse.
It’s poison …… and it’s a dangerous one too.
The remaining cat person was distracted by this, and Mil immediately cut them off and put a stop to it.
She’s usually calm, but she doesn’t hesitate when she’s in a fight.
She’s much better than me.
Kiara looked at Mil with an unconcerned look on her face.
“Sister, are there others still here?”
She closed her eyes for a moment, but Mil relaxed her shoulders.
“No …… it’s alright now. They’re no one anymore.”
To be honest, I was surprised at Kiara.
Sure, she had a number of daggers on her thigh belt, but ……
I had no idea she was this good.
“I never heard you’re specialized in dagger-throwing.”
Kiara remained looking down at the emotionless, convulsing, vomiting winged man.
“I practiced it a lot in my past life. It’s a way for powerless girl to survive …… A beautiful flower has its thorns, you know.”
It seems that she has not let her guard down.
In her previous life, she was in a very difficult situation.
It’s nice to know that I can count on her here, though.
“What kind of poison is it?”
Kiara looked at me sideways and answered with a smile without taking her eyes off the winged people.
“It’s aconite. I asked Dear sister to grow it in secret. With my special preparation, the toxin is very strong.”
Kiara looked at the convulsing winged man as if he were trash.
There is no murderous intent, but you can see a quiet rage in her eyes.
“You’re here to harm my brother. So I will show no mercy. There will be no forgiveness. You will not be spared. I hope you suffer and die.”
Normally, Mil would feel at least a little sorry, but …… she was not.
I can see that she is very angry, although her expression is calm.
The eyes that look down on the winged people are so cold, it’s as if she’s a different person.
I’m sure it’s because they tried to kill me.
She doesn’t show mercy to those who take away what is important to her.
That’s how I saw it.
The winged people died soon after.
We managed to survive the surprise attack.
I’ll have to think of another way to be safe.
They think I’m weak, so I’m still getting by.
◆◇◆◇◆
After the noise outside subsided, Jules came running in.
When he saw the state of the room, Jules looked relieved.
“Milord! I’m glad you’re okay. I’m glad that milady and Lady Kiara are also safe ……”
I interrupted Jules’ words.
I needed to know something, after all.
“Thank you for your hard work, Sir Jules. How is the damage outside?”
“Two dead here, ten wounded.”
“Any children among the casualties?”
“We have two dead squires. One of the children is seriously injured.”
My eyes darkened for a moment at these words.
“Will they make it?”
“Probably.”
“Where is the child now?”
I started walking unconsciously.
“In the temporary hospital.”
“Kiara, Mil, you take care of the rest.”
I said and started running.
I knew it was a possibility.
But …… It’s hard when you’re confronted with reality.
I don’t think it’s my imagination.
The enemy is slowly getting smarter.
