2nd Volume, 5th Chapter The Devil of the South 2nd Part

When the wrapper was slowly unwrapped, an excellent aroma wafted out.

Well, I didnt know as to how she was raising her skill, but her skill was rising, surely.

The day when her Cooking skill reached Lv2 wasnt far off.

Therefore, delicious food would soon be a normalcy.

Moreover, eating under such a beautiful scenery added an emotional spice.

Oh, delicious.

These were sincere words.

Basically, the cuisine in this world pivoted around bread. However, that didnt mean there was no rice.

Where there was wheat, there was rice.

Once, I requested onigiri from Dario-san. Lim probably learnt of it through Dario-san.

(ED note: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Onigiri)

What was inside the wrapper was a garnished onigiri.

Inside it were many small ingredients which I had to figure out individually.

As for the ingredients: a Salmo fish, which was endemic to Pascam, boiled in soy sauce; a rolled omelette, which was made using an Alma chicken egg; fried Alma chicken; etc

Muu Although it looked like an ordinary onigiri, I realized what it contained inside only when I put it in my mouth. That was an exquisite seasoning this fellow made

The seasoning of the ingredients was as good as always.

Un. It really is delicious.

It was not an act. It was truth.

Im glad.

After she heaved a sigh of relief, a smile spread all over her face.

Err, had I better pretend not to know for the time being?

Err, why are you glad, Lim? You only bought it at Feeder Pops

It seemed to be fine.

The target of her revenge didnt seem to be me, but Dario-san.

If thats the case, thennah, lets not say anything.

And so, after we enjoyed the lunch in a kyakkyaufufu mood, a feeling of satiety overcame us.

However, the momentary peace lasted only so far.

N? Whats that???

By chance, it entered my sight.

I was casually gazing at the cloudless blue sky; and then, a black spot appeared on the clear blue.

Gradually, the spot enlarged. When it did, it could be seen moving erratically.

It was moving in a zigzag track.

Lim be careful Something is coming.

At last, the form of the approaching object was unveiled.

Is that a bird? No, a beast?

On the back of the creature, which I hadnt seen before, was the silhouette of a person.

Then, is that a mount?

I heard in Merville that a flying mount was so expensive that it had no relation whatsoever to anyone other than royalty or nobility Other than those who were insanely rich

That flying mount, without lowering its speed, crashed into the groundNo, crashed into the swamp,

Magnificently while splashing a large column of water.

The body of the person on its back hurled vigorously and banged onto the ground

They arent dead, are they?

On that mounts body many arrows were sticking out.

Moreover, one of them didnt seem to be from an ordinary bow. Wasnt it from an anti-aircraft crossbow installed in a fort?

Though, shouldnt I first give priority to the person riding the mount?

I ran to the person who was slapped onto the ground. Lim followed behind, as well.

Because the ground below contained plenty of water, they might still be breathing.

Lets treat

However, I dunno why Lim showed cautious intent and cried.

Seiji! Wait!

W-what is it?

I tried to ask Lim the reason. However, I was dazzled the next instant.

After such an impact, they should have been dead. However, the body, that was lying on the ground just now, got up relaxedly.

How strong is their body?

The rolling spear and bow seemed to be their belongings. They picked them up and checked their condition.

However, although they werent rough they werent delicate either. Still, they could be inferred to be a woman from their body curves.

The swarthy skin, beautiful silver hair, and slightly pointed ears which differed from a humans.

Her features were pretty, however her impression was somehow cold.

And then, albeit strikingher bloody eyes stared in this direction.

De mon

In a hoarse voice, Lim squeezed those words out of her mouth.

Ow I knew I was rash Luna?

After glancing this way, the other party calmly extracted the arrows that were sticking out of her body and searched around.

She seemed to be looking for her mount.

Having heard what Lim uttered, demon, I took an alert stance and concentrated my focus on the other party.

Stupid that

This is bad

A shiver ran down my spine as a silhouette ran past my sideIt was Lim.

How dare you My village, how dare you

Foo come here! Lim!

That was probably the strongest and the fastest I had seen her. The fury of Lim.

There was Magic Power Conversion, too, supplementing her attack power.

However, her opponent blocked that fist strike.

With one hand at that.

Hou I thought you were a midge, but you seem to be hotblooded.

It was a cold voice that didnt make one feel the undulating sensation.

The spear, which she was wielding in one hand, at Lim

Hey. What do you think youre doing to my companion?

A metallic clank resounded.

My sword and the opponents spear screeched and repelled each other.

The shock ran up my arm Was I just pushed back?

Is that the physical ability gap between races? Its no joke.

Despite my relying on the skill

In an instant, the opponents eyes turned increasingly cold. It was creating an illusion as if the temperature had gone down.

Lim, take Rook and fall back. To be honest, her level is far apart from yours.

There was no reply, but somehow, she seemed to have understood.

She must have realized the difference in ability with that one strike moments ago.

To kill you I will have to crack a few joints, it seems.

Please wait a moment. Even though you are a demon, you and your mount are injured, no? I can use healing magic somewhat. So, if I treat your injuries, would you please return quietly?

Before that Ill cause some harm your way

T-thats

Oh well. Even if it werent the case, I wouldnt ever show my back to a human being. Also, I have no intention of accepting charity.

Is there no other way out?

Damn! The only advantage I had was that the opponent was slightly injured.

Demon, huh?

It didnt look good.

Focusing once more on the opponent, I strongly grasped the hilt of my darling sword, Noir.
