I realized that my heart cracked and crumbled every time I continued to kill Mors in his various forms.
As I became stronger and stronger as an assassin, I felt nothing, and without any doubt, I simply followed my assigned mission and killed.
—I became the most powerful being in the organization called “Seti, the God of Death”.
However, at the request of the hero Alta, I met the girls instead of him.
And I was able to regain the heart that I had lost.
“Seti, I will give you one chance. Go back to the organization.”
“What?”
Mors, in the form of an old woman, makes a sudden proposal, and I raise my eyebrows.
“I’ve never had anyone as good as you. After losing it, I realized that…so if you go back, I’ll just ignore this incident. Let’s enjoy the fun assassination life together as usual, shall we? ”
What do you mean, “enjoy the assassination life”? Don’t talk to me like I’m enjoying the that life.
“I refuse. I have no intention of ever going back. Just leave me alone.”
“No. If you don’t go back to the organization, you’re a traitor. You must be dealt with.”
Mors tried to pull the magic sword out of its sheath.
“Ah, so you want to die again?”
Not missing that moment, I pulled out the dagger from my waist and charged at him.
“I’m not going to die twice.”
Mors kicked up the staff at his feet, the tip of it coming right at my face.
I twist my head just in time to avoid it, but I lose a little time.
He had already pulled out his “magic sword Ansalar.”
It is a two-handed sword with a crimson blade that looks as if it has been dyed with fresh blood, and it is imbued with a disastrous magical power.
“Chestooo!”
Mors swung his sword with a spirited yell.
I read the trajectory of the sword strike and reversed my body, but the crimson blade twisted and forced its way toward me.
Automatic tracking. This is the effect of the magic sword Ansalar.
Gakin!
Just before I was about to be decapitated, I caught it with my dagger and defended myself.
With my free arm, I hit Mors in the face, which was twisted into an ugly mess.
“Gubbaa!”
Mors screams and is blown away, but quickly regains his stance and lands on his feet.
But blood drips from his nose and mouth.
“It hurts! What did you do to this innocent old lady’s face?..”
“Which mouth said that? Is there some kind of crazy old woman who yells and slashes me with magic swords?”
Let’s leave out the vague details. Well, boss have always been like that.
“….I’m relieved, if only a little. My arm doesn’t seem to be rusty.
“Let me reassure you even more–I’m going to activate the biofunction amplification and enhancement!”
My twin eyes turn red and the words of the spell appear like tattoos on the skin of my entire body and begin to shine.
I’m in serious mode.
However, I don’t even need to remove the limiter as I did last time – it’s an instant kill.
“Good, Seti! Show me!”
“I told you to shut up!”
Mors jumps and moves half a step with divine speed to avoid a slash aimed at the top of my head.
But the sword body jumps up due to the tracking effect of the magic sword and the deadly blade strikes at the side of the head.
Bishi!
I held out one arm and caught the blade between my index and middle fingers and suppressed it.
It was a white-blade attack with super overwhelming finger strength.
This level of feat was a piece of cake for me, as I had activated my “Biofunction Amplification Enhancement,” which infinitely improves every function of my entire body.
Wha, I-I can’t move!”
“With this level of ability, even if a cataclysm were to occur, it would be impossible to slaughter me–see you later, boss”
“Gugee!”
The dagger in my reverse hand is thrust into the neck of Mors, and I cut it off from the body as it is.
The old woman’s head flies through the air and Mors dies.
At the same time, the “Magic Sword Ansalar” lost its magic power and changed its form to the two-handed sword normally seen.
I frowned and had my doubts.
The “Magic Sword Ansalar” usually disappears, but not this time,……, as if it had been artificially mimicked as a simplified magic sword.
The corpse was not made, but a genuine human being, the body of an old woman,…… the big man last time and everything before that was also real.
Mors, the head of the elusive organization,……, what the hell kind of being is he?
“That damned …… thing, he’s going to show up again sooner or later in a different form.”
I clicked my tongue and threw away the weapon that had become an ordinary sword.
The tattoo of the spell language that had been painted all over my body disappeared, and the color of my red eyes, which had been shining brightly, returned to its original color.
“Oh well. I’ll kill you any number of times anyway. Boss, with this power you gave me!”
I’m going to try to live the slow life I’ve always wanted.
Then I went back to the tent,
Hina was still awake, working on her gun, just as I had taught her.
I had mixed feelings when I saw her comparing herself to my old self, but I had to accompany her as much as I could to help her make her decision.
She is a precious child entrusted to me by Master Io, and she is like a younger sister to me, whom I would risk my life to protect.
“Hina, let’s leave this country first thing tomorrow morning.”
“Eh? Already? Yes,……, I understand, Seti nii chan.”
For a moment, her large black eyes widened in surprise, but she seemed to understand what I am was trying to say.
Hina is also aware that I am being targeted by someone.
we’re both being targeted… maybe that’s why she doesn’t mention it too much.
But she seems somewhat lonely.
“What’s wrong, Hina? Do you still want to stay in this country?”
“….Y-Yeah. I heard from a customer that there’s a festival in the capital tomorrow…”
“I see. Well, I guess it’s not too late to go and see the festival.”
“Really?”
“Yeah, of course. On the other hand, I’ll never let you leave me. Also take Shabazo with you.”
“Yes.”
Hina gives me her usual cute and bright smile.
I can’t help but feel warm.
If the boss is in this country, there is a high possibility that the organization’s assassins are also hiding there.
If it’s true, I should probably leave now…
I thought, “Well, that’s okay.”
I’ve been thinking about it a lot, and these are people I don’t need to be scared of.
I was just afraid of putting Hina in danger like I did with Master Io.
If she took Shabazo with her, we could have a chance to make things like we did today.
He may be a cocky little dragon, but his ability to sense danger is remarkable.
It was that baby dragon that spotted the boss’s presence earlier than the others.
The next day.
Hina and I, along with Shabazo, go to see a festival held in the royal capital.
It was a celebration of the birth of the country’s prince.
The colorful and gorgeous streets of the city caught my attention.
The most eye-catching thing for me is….
“Hina, you are wearing a beautiful and cute outfit.”
“Yes, it’s called a yukata. My father bought it for me. I probably won’t be able to wear it after this year.”
Hina is dressed in a yukata, a brightly colored, flower-patterned formal kimono.
It is said to be the cultural formal wear of Japan. She bought it two years ago at a market in a certain country.
Therefore, it seems that Hina, who is still growing up, can only wear it within this year. That is why I wanted to go to the festival.
And one more thing.
“I wanted to have Seti onii chan look at it. …… ehehehehe.”
She smiles at me, her soft cheeks tinted pink.
Cute …… unintentionally makes my heart tingle.
No wonder Io san wanted to protect her with his life.
“Thank you, Hina. It looks great on you.”
I held her small hand so that she wouldn’t pull away.
“Gawd! Gaw!”
Shabazo, who was tied to Hina’s leash, was roaring and barking at us.
It seemed that Shabazo, who was tied to Hina’s leash, was not sensing danger, but was simply jealous that I was getting along with her.
When I turned my attention to him, Shabazou was trembling with fear, hiding behind Hina.
I’m not really glaring at him,……, but he’s really just a timid baby dragon with a lot of bravado.
That’s how we enjoy the festival by visiting the stalls, looking at various things and eating them
It was the first time for me to experience such a festival. My heart naturally dances.
For a brief moment, I think to myself
“–Hey, Manisa. Is he really in this country?”
I heard a familiar girl’s voice from up ahead.
I casually turn my gaze and am astonished to see a group of people I didn’t expect to see.
(Karina, Manisa, Fiala, and Miriel! Why are they here?)
Yes, they are the fiancées of the Hero Alta.
