Isekai Tensei - Kimi to no Saikai made Nagai koto Nagai koto Volume 1 Chapter 26

Thanks for reading~

To go through with my selfishness, I need enough power.
I was weak and powerless. That's why my resistance was easily held down by power.
However, although I'm frustrated, this guy is different.
He is a man that can go through with his selfishness.
That's exactly why I think he's reliable.

"Yo, my stupid younger brother. Is your d.a.m.n virginity safe?" (Faruga)

Certainly, it was just on the verge of being taken, but there should be a proper way of asking that.
Well, I can't say anymore considering I was saved by him.

"Yeah, somehow. So, Faruga, why are you here?" (Velt)
"I sensed the demon king's wave. When I was chasing after that overwhelming wave, I discovered a cave and a tunnel in the forest. And now this weird as f.u.c.k development is happening." (Faruga) (TL Note: A better translation for 波動?)

The demon king's wave? I see, so the power that Samejima released with his big outrage at the risk of his life was perceived by Faruga.
Him risking his life in a big outrage wasn't pointless.

"Well then, leaving this d.a.m.n situation aside for later, I guess I'll start with this eyesore first." (Faruga)

Faruga faces forward, and pushes out his spear.
Gyanza and humanity's great allied forces reflexively put themselves on guard.

"Get out of my sight you s.h.i.+tty girl. You aren't so idiotic to not understand how well you'll do against fighting me, right?" (Faruga)
"Fufu,『Scarlet Dragon Slayer Faruga』-sama. Although you continued declining our invites to join us no matter how special the conditions were, what sort of intention do you have here?" (Gyanza)
"Nothing's going on. I'm not interested in any of you a.s.sholes. But, I decided that I would kill people who pick a fight with this country and my stupid brother in an even more gruesome way than a dragon." (Faruga)

The atmosphere is painful.

"This, is this boy your younger brother?" (Gyanza)
"To be exact, he's my『Future』one."

Towards Faruga who is glaring at her, Gyanza isn't smiling either.
And then, the one that moved first was Faruga.

"Fuh." (Faruga)
"!" (Gyanza)

A moment of offence and defence… seemed to happen.
At the very least, I couldn't see anything.
Neither of them have moved a single step, but with the two as the centre, a crack ran across the ground in a circle shape.

"…… As expected of you…… you thrusted six times in that one instant. And to think you would break my divine punishment magic…… the rumours were true huh." (Gyanza)

And then, in the next moment,

"Uu, ah, I, I……" (Gyanza)
"Nu-, the flame…………" (Sharkryu)
"Ura! Samejima!" (Velt)

The cross that had captured Ura broke, and the flame that was covering Samejima went out.
They were both tortured intensely, but they are still alive.
But, how did that happen? Was it Faruga?

"Stupid younger brother. I don't know why you're fighting together with those d.a.m.n demons, but are you satisfied with this?" (Faruga)
"There is something I have heard before. The scarlet dragon slayer's spear does not stab, but it breaks. As well as demon and demi-humans, it even breaks the effects of magic and abilities." (Gyanza)
"Oi, you're too loud you s.h.i.+tty girl. I'm talking with my stupid younger brother. Well, seeing you defend against four of my spear thrusts without a weapon shows that you don't seem to be that weak." (Faruga)

Haha…… what is this………… well, I understand it well now.
These guys are on a way too different level.

"At any rate, you have done quite a troublesome thing. That boy over there lost his innocent heart. To regain that heart, I am going to sacrifice my chast.i.ty to him. What part of that is a mistake?" (Gyanza)
"I can't even get the motivation to argue. Well, if that treatment method really is correct, then my foolish younger sister can do it." (Faruga)
"Besides, we are talking about the demon king and princess Ura here. Even if you are the prince of the Elfars.h.i.+a Kingdom, interfering with humanity's great allied force's great causes will not be forgiven, you know?" (Gyanza)
"LIke I said, why? Your great cause and my stupid younger brother. You don't even need to think about which one I would choose." (Faruga)

An explosive situation. Which one of them is going to move first?
However, no matter who moves first, everyone here had their breath taken away while thinking the same thing.
One of them will definitely end up in an extreme condition.

However,

"That may be so, but this is obviously in the Elfars.h.i.+a Kingdom's territory." (??)
"!" (Velt)
"Both parties, I will have you leave your weapons to let me save face here." (??)

Here, I heard another voice I became accustomed to hearing.
The moment I heard that voice, I became happy enough for tears to come out.

"Even if you are humanity's great allied forces, you shouldn't be able to advance into my country's territory without permission from my country. I will have you leave from this place immediately." (??)

When that man appeared, the cave shook.

"Tyler!" (Velt)

There's no mistake. It's Tyler.
Tyler, and the Elfars.h.i.+a Kingdom army gathered in the tunnel's hole one after the other.

"O, oi oi oi! Di, did he just say, Tyler!?"
"There's no doubt about it! That man is general Tyler!"
"That person is『Paladin (holy knight) General Tyler』, you're lying right?"
"Are you seriously saying that one of the six Paladins that stand at the top of humanity's continent suddenly appeared."
"Furthermore, even the Elfars.h.i.+a Kingdom army is here."

O, ohh.
Well, I knew that Tyler was super famous as well, but that's an unexpected reaction.
I was talking to him quite frankly like he's the neighbourhood uncle, or as a cla.s.smate's old man, but he really was an amazing guy huh.

"Fufu, well well, general Tyler. It has been a long time." (Gyanza)
"It seems you've been promoted quite a lot, Gyanza. No, right now you're a general, right? We haven't met ever since I was invited to be a lecturer at the great national military academy." (Tyler)
"Yes, although I still have not acc.u.mulated as much military prowess as you have." (Gyanza)
"No no, you will surely become a great hero that far surpa.s.ses me in a few years." (Tyler)

From one glance, I can see that Gyanza's way of interacting with Tyler is different.
Rather, they were acquaintances huh.

"Oi, you d.a.m.n Tyler, did you also sense the demon king's wave? You arrived quite late though." (Faruga)
"Well well, prince Faruga. You were quite early. Well, unlike you, I cannot take independent action after all." (Tyler)
"Keh. In the first place, if you a.s.sholes that were in the country all the time found this tunnel quickly, this d.a.m.n development wouldn't have…… that incident wouldn't have happened either." (Faruga)

That incident. Hearing that, Tyler's expression slightly clouded.
And, I also understood the meaning. That incident, is the incident when old man and mum were killed.

"Yes, of course I understand that. For that reason, I will never go through such regret again." (Tyler)

He didn't have his usual, kind fatherly smiling expression.
The current Tyler is,

"Gyanza. Although that child is a commoner, he is a treasure that we definitely cannot let break, and is our country's son. He seems to have caused much rudeness towards you, but I want you to overlook it. We will send a messenger to properly apologize with some goods as an apology afterwards." (Tyler)

Making me feel great just by being here.

"Please, I want you to come to an agreement with that. Furthermore, we will take care of the demon king and the princess." (Tyler)
"General Tyler. Do you think I will consent to that?" (Gyanza)
"Even I can see it. The demon king can't be saved. The achievements will all go to you, and we are the witnesses of that." (Tyler)
"What about princess Ura?" (Gyanza)
"Our country will take responsibility for her future course. We definitely will not trouble you." (Tyler)

That was different to Faruga, Sharkryu and Ruuga who simply kill.
It was also different to Gyanza, that is abnormally impossible to understand.

"If you say even that is not enough, there would be no choice. If you say you want me to hand over this child and the demon king's family no matter what, we will have to fight for our son, and the people that our son is trying to protect." (Tyler)

However, I felt something big wrapping me, and this battlefield itself.

"Don, don't f.u.c.k with us, there's only meaning to it if he gets beheaded!"
"By exposing the heads of the demon king and his family, by letting out a shout of victory for humanity, it will become hope for us and a restraint for the demons!"
"While being a member of humanity's great allied forces, does the Elfars.h.i.+a Kingdom have the intention of turning against us!"
"This will become a war you know!"

War? No way. Because I tried to help Ura and Samejima of my own accord, why……

"It just means that Velt-kun is that much of an important existence to us." (Galva)
"As royalty, we can't let the country become dragged into war because of our personal feelings. Therefore, when the time comes, I am prepared to throw away my royalty status." (Forna)

I hadn't deeply thought about this incident.
Saving my friend's daughter. That was all it was.
Even if something happened, I thought everything would only be my own problem.

"Wai, I………… I really am an idiot." (Velt)

I was shallow.
I was naive.
I didn't think my stupid actions would tie in with a war.

However, this is what it means to not think far enough.

"Galva…… Forna…… even you guys." (Velt)

Even you guys came for me?

"Tha, that person is the man that is famed for being unrivaled in physical strength,『Galva of the Giant Killing』!"
"And, that girl is that lady!"
"Elfars.h.i.+a Kingdom's princess, Forna Elfars.h.i.+a-sama! The child prodigy called the『Konjiki (golden) Comet, Forna』!"
"Wh, why, why are they here! E-, Elfars.h.i.+a Kingdom's strongest forces are all gathered together!"

Why do these guys become all serious for me, even while understanding that I invite all kinds of situations with my stupid actions that I don't think through enough!

"V, Ve, Velt." (Ura)
"Ura, are you safe?" (Velt)
"Yeah, bu, but, these humans are……" (Ura)

It's understandable for Ura to doubt her eyes. Even I'm surprised.

"Ku, hahahaha." (Sharkryu)
"Samejima! You, you were still alive!" (Velt)
"You're too loud, and I'm not going to die yet. But, hahahaha." (Sharkryu)
"Father! Please hang on, father! Thi, this is……" (Ura)
"It's fine, Ura. I already know it myself. Hahaha, but to think you would show me a scene like this at the very end. Asakura, you really are an amazing guy." (Sharkryu)

While getting up his dying body, Samejima strangely laughs.
Ura, who ran up to him, lost her words after seeing his body.
However, as if somewhat satisfied, Samejima himself was showing a smile that looked like he could disappear anytime now.

For Samejima who was fighting against the world, he knew how amazing this scene is.

"Fuu…… very well." (Gyanza)

At that moment, Gyanza murmured as if feeling resignation.

"General Tyler. If you are going to say that much, I will give up on his head. However, if princess Ura becomes an existence that harms humanity from now on, we will definitely not forgive the Elfars.h.i.+a Kingdom." (Gyanza)
"I am indebted to you." (Tyler)
"Inform the whole army! It is our victory in this war! Report this notification to the empire and the head office at once! While treating the injured, we will return! The battle has ended!" (Gyanza)

The general's shout of victory that announces the end of the war.
They had been waiting for it for so long, that even the people that was dissatisfied towards Ura and I were raising war cries.
A battle where they had to always be prepared to fight, finally ended.
As they are returning as victors, their expressions were bright.

And, I……

"It ended, Samejima." (Velt)
"Yeah…… it really ended………… my second life, that is……" (Sharkryu)

Needed to come to one conclusion.
The conclusion of my farewell with my friend.
