Chapter 201 Yamato Hina and the Demon King Medinilla ⑧
Edited by: Kanaa-senpai
Whether they had given up on crossing into the Demon King’s territory or not, the humans on the opposite shore turned tail and departed. Two figures watched them go from the safety of the forest.
One was a massive man, standing well over two meters tall. His physique was like a weathered, grayish crag. His steel-colored hair was cropped in a buzz cut, and two bull-like horns protruded from the sides of his head. He had a rugged, square face, but his eyes were sharp with a deep, brooding intelligence.
The other was a boy of small stature. He had messy green hair, large golden eyes, and skin as pale as wax. Neither was human.
”Well, well. Looks like they gave up,” Storm said.
While the boy felt a secret sense of relief, he didn’t let it show. He muttered to himself with an innocent, playful smirk.
”It is for the best. I have no desire for useless slaughter,” Quake replied.
Whether he saw through the boy’s facade or not, the large man simply answered him.
”Useless slaughter, huh? Well, it was definitely the right move to back off. There was someone seriously dangerous mixed in with that crowd – that man in the mask. If we’d fought, win or lose, we wouldn’t have come out in one piece. Actually, nine times out of ten, we would’ve been the ones to lose. We’re probably the ones who just had a narrow escape, Quake,” Storm said.
”Surely that is impossible… or so I would like to say. But you have proof, don’t you, Storm?” Quake asked.
”You bet,” Storm replied.
Storm nodded at the giant man’s words. He had seen it with his own eyes – the masked man, Sieben, and his freakish, abnormal strength.
Storm made a hobby of wandering through human nations. The others usually gave him a hard time for it, but he put that aside for now. He had discovered the masked man by pure chance. A swarm of Killer Army Ants¹ had been descending upon a town he was visiting, and Sieben had – unbelievably – exterminated them almost entirely on his own. That was a feat even the Demon Race would find nearly impossible. Storm took pride in the fact that they could still manage something like that if they got serious… but that was the catch. They would have to go all out. Sieben, however, hadn’t even broken a sweat. He was still hiding his true ability. Just like their master, Demon King Medinilla, the man was a total enigma.
Of course, Storm had a completely different reason for wanting to avoid a fight.
”Anyway, I’m glad they turned back just because of this ‘fissure,’” Storm said, looking down.
Storm peered into the massive, yawning chasm – far too deep to be called a mere crack in the ground. The one who had created this canyon was the man beside him: Quake.
”To put it another way, it was the only thing I could achieve. All I could do was sever the path to this side,” Quake said.
For some reason, Quake had been unable to direct his technique toward Greedia itself. He had only just managed to split the forest from the human lands.
”Hmm. So, Quake, what are you going to do now?” Storm asked.
”I will report this matter to Medinilla-sama²,” Quake replied.
”So diligent. Well, Medinilla-sama aside, I bet Tsunami-chan will be breathing a sigh of relief,” Storm said.
Storm shrugged his shoulders with an exaggerated sigh.
”Whatever. I’ll leave the rest to you then, Earth Demon General Quake-dono³,” Storm said.
”…And what will you do?” Quake asked.
He had a general idea, but he asked to be sure.
”Me? Obviously, I’m heading back over to Greedia,” Storm replied.
Quake let out a heavy sigh. As expected. Storm’s wandering habit wasn’t anything new. Whimsical and free, moving like the wind, drifting like the clouds – that was the Wind Demon General, Storm.
”But can you even cross? I felt as though I were being blocked by an invisible wall; I could not move an inch past the forest’s edge,” Quake said.
”It’s fine. Actually, I’ve been hopping back and forth this whole time,” Storm said.
”Nuu… truly? I do not understand. Why is it that you can pass through so easily, Storm?” Quake asked.
The ‘Wall of Rejection’⁴ Sieben had erected was designed to repel anyone with hostile intent or malice toward Greedia. While Quake was a moderate, he still harbored no forgiveness for the humans – the ‘Hero,’ to be precise – who had attacked Medinilla. Storm, however, hadn’t entertained a single harmful thought from the beginning. In fact, he wanted to be friends.
”I suppose from your perspective, even the attack on Medinilla-sama is a triviality. Medinilla-sama herself did say that no one could ever truly bind you. I doubt someone like me could hope to stop you,” Quake said.
Quake muttered to himself, thinking that the radicals like Bolgano, Lightning, or even Blizzard – whose death had just been reported – would have tried to beat some sense into the boy with force.
”Well, I imagine Medinilla-sama will overlook it as your usual behavior,” Quake said.
”Heh-heh. I like you, Quake. You’re easy to talk to. See ya!” Storm said.
With a friendly grin, Storm kicked off the ground and drifted toward the other side. Like a breeze.
Quake watched him go in silence, then turned and vanished into the depths of the forest.
”Man, that Hero guy is such a moron. Not that it’s my problem. More importantly… I’ve gotta go see Leki-chan. We can play together, maybe hunt some monsters… Ehehe,” Storm said.
As he raced through the sky, Storm’s face softened into a goofy, besotted grin.
The real reason Storm refused to fight Sieben was simple: he had fallen for Leki at first sight. And it wasn’t just because she was cute. There were plenty of cute girls among humans and demons alike. But Leki was different. She was strong, cheerful, innocent, and more than anything, her smile was blinding. Those dog-like ears and that tail were just the icing on the cake. There was no way he was going to make an enemy out of Sieben, the father of his beloved Leki.
”Gah, I’ve never felt like this before. Leki-chan is all I can think about. But it doesn’t feel bad at all. I feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Leki-chan… ehehe… Leki-chan… I wonder what I can do to make her happy?”
He was an Undead who had halted his physical growth in the form of a young boy – the Wind Demon General, Storm. At over three hundred years old, he had finally fallen in love for the first time.
