Seiju no Kuni no Kinju Tsukai Chapter 48

Chapter 48 (Light)

I arrived in the middle of the room while kicking around blue goblins. 

ーAnother half left... 

I brandished my spear, blowing away the blue goblins which come closer. 

I aimed at its eyes. 

Within the crowd, there's a different goblin compared to the other blue goblins, its has a green skin. 

Furthermore, rather than an ax arm, this green goblin have a sword as an arm. 

I turn my body half horizontally evading the attack. 

Thenー 

"ーーTsu !" 

Did I got preoccupied with the Different color too much ? 

Looking at me like that, the blue goblins took the opportunity and jumps at me. 

d.a.m.n it ! 

There're no spears on my surrounding either. 

What about the crystal... !? 

"!!" 

At the place where the goblin with Different colors melted, there's something... 

I stretch out my left hand toward the dagger and quickly pick it up. 

Furthermore, while using the blue goblin which I pierced using Akira sword as a s.h.i.+eld, I was able to stand up immediately. 

I welcomed the incoming attack from blue goblin with a headb.u.t.t and strike it down. 

While at the same time, I start chanting the forbidden spell. 

"....................." 

This is my first-time dual wielding, though. 

I' direct my line of sight toward the door. 

I resume my advance by restricting blue goblins with chains. 

The attack of the blue goblins who trying to obstruct my path become severe gradually. 

"Gugaaa !" 

Two goblins timed their timing and jumped toward me at the same time from both my side. 

Howeverー there's another one come from the front. 

Even pulling my sword won't make it in time either. 

I bite at the blue goblin neck.

Unexpectedly the blue goblin stopped moving. 

With force, I bite off the blue goblin carotid artery. 

"Gyogee !!... Ga...gaaaa..." 

I spit out the piece of meat from my mouth. 

Like this, I look like an animal huh... 

ーーHot... 

*Badum*, I feel such sensation. 

I put my hand on the door. 

I push the door open with my body while stabbing blue goblin which comes chasing to death. 

I barely pa.s.sed the door. 

Then I push the door as hard as possible, closing it up. 

I look around the door surrounding while enduring the pain. 

I put my hand on my lever position. 

I looked down bellow at once. 

I feel a faint shaking. 

Blue goblins might jump out from somewhere after all. 

And then... in a matter of few minutes, the door disappear. 

I didn't hear the sound of the beating and the scream anymore. 

"... Somehow I manage to do it huh ?" 

One way or another, I survived the blue goblins fierce onslaught. 

"Anyway... where is this ?" 

I finally calmly observe the place where I am now. 

Compared to the previous pa.s.sage. 

It's the wound from at the time I bite a goblin before. 

And strike my side with all its might, broke my light cuira.s.s armor, and gauge my side. 

I concentrate my attention fighting the demon in front of me before, thus I don't feel anything from it. 

"d.a.m.n it..." 

I still have a long way to go huh... 

I put my hand on my side where blood streamed out while muttering such words, then began walking through the dark pa.s.sage. 

...................................... 

"Now then... what layer is this ?" 

Ahead of the pa.s.sage, there's one door. 

Furthermore, when I opened the door, I feel a remembrance from it. 

Unconsciously, I fell on my knee. 

Is this because I've arrived at a bright place with light, I feel relief ? 

It seems like that 『sense』 won't try to take over my consciousness when I'm not in 『battle states』. 

I guess that 『sense』 is more like a berserk mode huh ? 

I sit down at the place while thinking of such thing. 

I might be already near my limit eh... 

"....................." 

Since a while ago, my view occasionally becomes blurred. 

Somehow, I must look for the stairs leading up. 

............................ 

Absolutely... 

"!!" 

Several meters from my place. 

The size of the upper body is way bigger than the lower part body. 

........................ 

The bad news is... currently I don't have the condition to fight against tiger head, I'm in a considerable pinch right now. 

Already, the tiger head runs toward this place. 

Because of my consciousness grew dim, I can't chant the words quickly. 

I try to raise my body while chanting the forbidden spell. 

I don't have any power left. 

I guess there's no helping it. 

At that time, 

"Duckー Kurohiko !" 

I heard someone voice. 

A familiar voice, which I missed. 

I who lay down and turn my face up, on my line of sight, a golden hair being tied by a ribbon flown down on her back. 

In the instant, the owner of the voice cut the monster in pieces with elegance, 

"Finally, I found you." 

While turning her body back she said those words and putting the sword back to the sheaths. 

That today Cecil-san going to come inside the sacred ruin too. 

"Let's talk about what happen later. First, let's deal with your wound... excuse me." 

Cecil-san crouched and rolled up my exploration clothes a little forcibly from the bottom. 

That ring has a jewel with pink color(is that a crystal, I wonder ?) and it's start emitting a strong light. 

"I won't explain in detail but, in short, this ring is for us to know each other position. that's why, in minutes Zix and the others will also..." 

From her mouth, Cecil-san cast the magic spell. 

After Cecil-san cast the last phrase of the spell, *Ton*, she gathers the magic power on her fingertips. 

Cecil-san then brings the light near my side. 

Though it's slow, however, the wound on my side began closing. 

As expected, you also can use healing magic easily huh, Cecil-san. 

I only able to cram information in the cla.s.sroom, despite I'm unable to use it, I have plenty knowledge of it. 

Now then, about the magic. 

Defensive magic. 

Special magic. 

Those four types. 

In other words, the Healing magic is the highest level. 

Since they come here wearing a light dress or armor, they can keep continuing exploring even when they get wounded to some degree.  

From the left side of the pa.s.sage, a slender figure appeared. 

"Hirgiz." 

It is Hirgiz-san. 

On her finger, I saw a similar ring with the one Cecil-san have. 

... Ah, I see. 

Hirgiz-san then glanced toward me. 

"It seems like you've found him eh ?" 

Nn? 

Why did they move separately ? 

If that is the case then, Kyurie-san isー. 

Cecil-san replies Hirgiz-san words with small nods. 

"Hirgiz if there's a monster approaching us, please intercept it." 

While sweat appeared on Cecil-san white cheeks and forehead, she continues applying the faint light to my side. 

"Good... with this, the bleeding has stopped." 

When I take a look at my body, the wounds has already disappeared. 

She seems to be out of breath a little. 

It seems the fatigue degree still quite considerable even for someone like Cecil-san. 

"I-I'm sorry..." 

Or rather, Cecil-san body isー. 

The warmth from Cecil-san bodyー 

I try to separate my body in a hurry. 

"I won't let you goー just kidding... what do you think of this ?" 

"W-Wellー" 

"Butー" 

And then...*hic hic* ... I hear sobbing sounds... 

"I-I understand ! Please do so !" 

Though it was obvious that her cry is a lie... but, if she went as to do that, there's no way I can refuse her. 

"Yes ! well then, let's heal you up..." 

*Fufufu* Cecil-san then began smiling lightly. 

"... Cecil-sama, please don't do something weird okay ? I'm begging you." 

Hirgiz-san looked down at me as if dissatisfied with something. 

And then, when all of my wounds were about to close upー at that time... 

And from its shoulders grew horns, it's Black tiger head.

Compared to the tiger head, it has a longer and thicker claw. 

And there's three of them. 

However, the layer where dark tiger head should appeared... according to the academy record, it should be inside 12th layers. 

"I see... the rumor that there are many Variant types seems to be true eh~ ? Furthermore, the layer they appeared too huh ?" 

Stopping the healing magic, Cecil-san stands up then put both her hands on her swords handle. 

"I'm sorry Kurohiko.. for Hirgiz dealing the three of them might be a little too much..." 

"It's alright, please leave it to us here." 

After saying that and smiled toward me, Cecil-san unsheathes her swords, and her expression becomes serious. 

The place filled with tension. 

Despite being Variant type. 

Like this, it has lost those significant in just a blink of an eye. 

Then two shadow of a person appeared. 

Zix-san and, 

"Kyurie...-san" 

Kyurie-san opened her eyes wide while looking at my directionー.
