V2C17

Translated by Mlzkzr Edited by Mlzkzr

I, Hiiragi Seiichi, was getting impatient.

Well …… I didn’t think I would speed up that much.

Because as I notice it, we’re in a place which I don’t know at all. Oh, mystery!

No, but without joking, I was seriously nervous. My speed, I want to measure it once.

And then, Saria said, the one who stopped me who is out of control, seems to have been some kind of creature.

…… I bumped it at a great speed, but it’s alive, right? No, I know that I’m escaping from reality, though.

As I think about that, Saria who noticed something, raises a surprised voice.

“Aaah!”

“What’s wrong?”

“That is…… Altria-san?”

“!?”

As I look in the direction that Saria pointed, there was the figure of Altria-san lying there full of blood.

“Tu! Altria-san!”

I rush over to her. Then Altria-san says, in a weak voice.

“Haha…… my bad. Seiichi, Saria…… safely…… I was going to take you back, but ……”

To Altria-san who tells us so without power, both I and Saria are speechless.

This person, doesn’t care about her own condition, and was only worried about us……!

“Seiichi! First of all, Altria’s wounds!”

“Ah!”

When I held Altria-san, I took out the Highest-grade recovery medicine from my item box.

However, when I tried to make her drink it ——

“! Seiichi, behind!”

“Eh?”

Responding to Saria’s cry, I immediately turned around, and a scorching flame was approaching in front of me.

Suddenly, despite the fact that the unique skill 『Mind’s eye』 is activated, I couldn’t figure out how to deal with it.

Saria was, already out of range from the flames, perhaps she thought that I would avoid it too.

Saria’s sorrowful voice resounds, but I reflexively protect Altria-san, turning my back to the flame, and hugging her in a protective manner.

On my back, the hell fire struck. The tremendous amount of heat, envelops me and Altria-san.

While feeling the unusual heat thoroughly on my back, I hand Altria-san the recovery medicine in order to ease her burden even a little.

“Stupid …… bastard. Why……didn’t you avoid it……!”

I didn’t not avoid it, I couldn’t avoid it.

That is because my head turned blank even though the skill 『Mind’s Eye』 was activated.

Perhaps the main reason why my head went blank was because, I think I didn’t have enough room to deal with the sudden attack. In other words, it’s because of my inexperience.

Even so, my body moved reflexively in order to protect Altria-san……

At Altria-san’s words, I had no choice but to smile wryly under the hood.

But I don’t plan to receive its attacks forever.

I can’t make a judgment in an instant yet, but my actions afterwards, I can do that as much as I like.

Although her wounds have recovered, Altria-san’s energy has not.

While holding such Altria-san, I move in one step to the position where Saria is.

“Seiichi!”

Saria screamed and rushed over. When I handed Altria-san to Saria, I laid Altria-san in a remote position.

“Seiichi, are you okay!? You were in fire, you know?”

“Is it cool?”

“No, you look hot!”

“……”

Well, I think so too.

More than that, even though I was in such a fire, only the robe got burned, considering that it doesn’t affect me, the robe prepared by the sheep, I wonder if there was any effect that I didn’t know about. He said that it didn’t have any effect.

Anyway, making me think that the robe had no effect, he must have enjoyed watching my reaction.

However, it seems that the robe has also become no good.

The edges of the robe, gradually burn and spread to ashes. I try to activate the skill 『Absorption』 and inhale the fire on the robe, but I couldn’t absorb it for some reason.

Even if I try to extinguish the fire by using the water attribute magic myself, now that I can’t adjust its power, I can’t use it myself. Thereupon, I don’t want it to become self-destruction or a pun.

Fortunately, the robe is just the one that’s burning, so I took off my robe and was finally freed from the flames.

“…… Seiichi ……?”

Behind me, I hear Altria-san’s dumfounded voice.

Probably, when she saw my black hair exposed by taking off my robe, she was surprised.

Turning my gaze behind me, Altria-san passed out after muttering a few things.

“Saria, please look after Altria-san.”

“Understood! Seiichi, do your best!”

“Oh”

With the cheers of Saria, I turn to the individual who fired the flames. There was, the giant dragon wrapped in jet-black scales. It was staring at me with its red eyes, and burning flame erupting out of its mouth.

“Human …… do you wish to get in the way of me again ……!”

It seems that, it was very angry with us. Why. Did I, do something? What’s more, 『again』 …… what? Is this the second time he was intruded? I don’t mind.

More than that, the one who hurt Altria-san, was you, right? I can understand his language, but discussion seems meaningless.

『Unforgivable…… It’s absolutely unforgivable! Don’t think that you can go back alive, humans ……!』

Look? While sighing inwardly, I pulled out the 【Fine Sword of Swirling Hatred】 and the 【Fine Sword of Overflowing Benevolence】.

“Is that so …… then, I’ll beat you and we’ll all go home……!”

And as soon as I declared that, I ran out of the spot.

Just as Altria-san fought for us, this time it’s my, turn to fight for Altria-san.
