Chapter 7
V2 Chapter 7 – This appearance is a hobby The pa.s.sage was going straight.
After almost all of the traps had been activated, a considerable amount of people have fallen victim.
There should have been almost no danger, but there was a risk of getting caught again, especially when considering Rainier’s luck.
Therefore, Yogiri secretly destroyed the traps.
The positions of the traps with killing intent seemed to be able to be detected, and if he could detect its existence, he could kill it. “I am talking about the remaining 3, is it okay?” (Tomochika) Tomochika who was asking this was worried.
With this, if 3 fatal injuries were taken, it would be fatal. “When it reaches midnight, a number proportional to the amount of unfortunate events of that day will be replenished. Therefore, it’s okay as long as I can manage until midnight.” (Rainier) “Isn’t it supposed to be everything’s alright!? If you continue with this momentum of dying, you won’t have until midnight!” (Tomochika)
While she was talking about that, they arrived at the end of the pa.s.sage.
There is a door, and letters are written. 『Only one can get out.』 Tomochika didn’t understand the characters in this world yet, so Yogiri read it aloud.
Yogiri has read and almost mastered the different world language dictionary they had received from the concierge. “I feel magical power from this door. It’s one of the trials. Perhaps this is literal content……” (Rick) “It would be easy if it was. If only one person can get out, only one person should do it.” (Rainier) To Rick who inferred the context of the test, Rainier answered briefly. “Is it such an easy thing?” (Rick) “Well then, I will go into it first. Because I have an apology stone, it is okay even in the eyes of death!” (Rainier) “Three remaining, is it really alright?” (Tomochika) “No problem. You see, I had Tomochika-san wind it around me!” (Rainier) While Rainier said this, he raised his left hand with a cord wrapped around it. “Wow, that confident spot is giving me an increasingly ominous feeling……” (Tomochika) Tomochika had started to feel somewhat weird towards Rainier.
Although he could be revived with star crystals, he’s too indifferent to the surrounding situation, he seemed to be too obsessive with life. “Well, let me know! Even if I die at the worse, I will not inconvenience you!” (Rainier) Rainier opens the door.
Inside there was immediately a wall, and the pa.s.sage continued on the right side.
Rainier enters inside triumphantly, and the door shut automatically. “It’s nice to be alone though. As there are exits other than here, how do you judge whether you have been able to get out of there safely? And if Rainier-san cleared it, does that mean we can’t even challenge this trial? This strategy, doesn’t it have too many holes?” (Yogiri) “Ah.” (Tomochika) Although Yogiri presented good doubt, it wasn’t enough to worry about. “Gyaaaaaahhh!” (Rainier) It is because they soon heard the shout of Rainier. In other words, it turned out that it wasn’t safe. “Entrant¹.” (Yogiri) “In the end, it didn’t mean anything to be allowed to go alone……” (Tomochika) “What do you say, it’s just like fitting him to a dangerous eye……” (Rick) However, it may be evidence that Rainier’s fortune is hopelessly bad.
The 3 people opened the door and entered.
Proceeding to the right, the pa.s.sage immediately bent to the left, and a room was spread beyond.
There was the smell of blood.
Some broken bodies of human beings are scattered.
It isn’t just one or two people.
Dozens of bodies are rolling around in a pool of blood without being able to return. “Rainier-san!?” (Tomochika) The left arm of Rainier had fallen just in the room.
As Tomochika’s decorative string is wrapped around it, you can’t make a mistake in seeing it. ―No way in this! If Tomochika looked around the room in a hurry, Rainier himself was struggling a bit further away.
It seems only his left arm was lost, and it can be said that it’s lucky to be just that, but it seems that it wasn’t meaningful to have a star crystal attached to the left arm.
Rick drew his sword, turning towards the person standing in the back of the room.
There was a woman in a maid dress which didn’t suit her.
There is even a dazzling approach to that exalted appearance.
To Tomochika, she couldn’t think that the woman was just a fool. “This was you?” (Rick) Rick carefully asked her.
There was a tense feeling that wasn’t extraordinary for that voice. “Yes. But, I don’t think that there is anything to blame me for. Do you know the trick of this room? The trial begins when 2 or more people enter this room, and the door won’t open from the inside. As soon as you are alone, you are able to open the door to the exit. In other words, we are being forced to kill each other.” (Maid) “That may be true, but you were alone in this room till then. Couldn’t you have just left the room?” (Rick) “Yeah. The trial has ended, and it seemed to be one time only. So, in theory you are able to pa.s.s through this room without labor.” (Maid) “In other words, do you mean that you don’t intend to pa.s.s?” (Rick) The woman was standing in front of the door.
Her intention is obvious. “I think that what the black person is talking about isn’t a mistake anymore. Sword Saint-sama was given a complaint in that place, but would you say the same in this place? After all, the strongest one should be a sword fighter. If so, is it slow or fast?” (Maid) The black one is about the sword fighter in the black clothing that heard it would be possible to become a Sword Saint if you killed them all.
She dared to wait here, as it seemed she wanted to reduce her rivals. “If only strength is the judgement criteria, you have to choose a successor from the sword position. Otherwise, there should be speculation of Sword Saint-sama.” (Maid) As the woman in the maid dress is just standing still, Rick set up his sword without fail.
That figure was indeed contrastive.
He wondered what fear has taken Rick’s stance.
Rick is turning his sword, he’s only trying to make a wall between the woman.
It was apparant to Tomochika. “Tomochika-san, it’s bad. It’s the worst situation.” (Rainier) “Do you know your friend?” (Maid) In the state from a little while ago, it seemed like so to Tomochika. “There is no one who doesn’t know about the Sword Saint. My name is Theresa. I am a former swordswoman of the royal family.” (Maid->Theresa) “About that, I don’t know about that when it’s said, but are you strong?” (Tomochika) Tomochika didn’t understand well.
She felt a unique sign, but it wasn’t the master’s atmosphere that Tomochika seemed to know. “The swordsmans.h.i.+p is 3rd place in terms of rank of a swordswoman. By the way, I am the King of the Swords, so I rank 7th. In other words, it isn’t an opponent you can fight and win.” (Maid) “The former royalty isn’t like that, so does that mean it’s fallen to that?” (Tomochika) “Is there anything to worry about?” (Rick) Rick gives kind of a ditracted voice.
Then, Theresa herself answered Tomochika’s doubt. “This appearance is a hobby.” (Maid) She should have been talking in a loud voice, as this conversation seemed to be a duct.
With this, she would not be able to keep away to consult to escape. “Since I already have a hand, you can’t run away from the entrance.” (Theresa) Theresa said this as if she read the idea of Tomochika.
Tomochika who confirmed from behind noticed that the escape path was blocked. “Rick-san, please be careful! Thin wires are set in various places!” (Tomochika) Tomochika’s acute vision was active here too.
She had seen that an extremely fine wire is set in the room, seemingly invisible if seen normally. “Yes, I know her signature. She uses the sword of the thin thread.” (Rick) “The broad interpretation of my words is a swordsman is too terrible!?” (Tomochika) No matter how she looked at it, Tomochika thinks this would be thread usage. “Well. If the fodder survives, Sword Saint-sama will be troubled. Please show me you’re worthy enough to escape my attacks at the very least.” (Theresa) The air trembled soon, as when Rick swung his sword a sharp metal sound echoed.
If you are an ordinary person it would be as if you didn’t know what happened.
However, Tomochika was witnessing the moment Rick intercepted the fallen wire.
Rick’s sword moves everywhere.
A continuous metal sound began to sound as long as there was no interruption.
Rick continues to prevent wires coming from various directions.
Is it due to Theresa’s skill, or the material of the wire?
None of the wires had been cut off.
Altough they are refracted, they change their direction and attack again. “Argh! ……I’ll manage to stop her here. You look for a chance and go to the exit!” (Rick) Rick’s words were filled with difficulty while judging the wielded wire at high speeds.
Tomochika also knew.
Theresa is just playing.
She was curious about being an examiner, or suppressing her attacks to the extent that Rick can somehow deal with it.
Rick probably thinks she’s stepping on thin ice.
Theresa is trying to make full efforts after grasping Rick’s ability.
If he even thought carelessly once, unless he got out with his power, that’s it.
However, there was hope because this was her exam.
If you ride her antic.i.p.ation, because it should be possible to escape. “Die.” (Yogiri) However, the battle casually ended with one word of Yogiri.
Rick’s blow strikes the wire together.
Theresa fell, and she stopped moving. “You know, it’s nice to be absorbed in the fight, but have you forgotten about Rainier-san?” (Yogiri) Yogiri said while amazed. “Oh, that’s right! He didn’t use an apology stone! Rainier-san, are you alright²!” (Tomochika) Tomochika ran to check Rainier. “……the heck, what is……” (Rick) Rick had an empty face, and he was staring at the untouched Theresa.
