Chapter 221 Strongest Beast

Been reading Super Dimensional Wizard these days, pretty interesting, it was like Warlock of Magus World, following the blueprint of Wizard World. Well the translation kinda bad at first but it gotten better later on. Hmm, my impression is that it's kinda feel off in some part, a bit of contradictive points. It doesn't have that rather oppressive feel of the two of it's predecessors too. In fact it's kinda bright.

 

Chapter 221 Strongest Beast

 

While hamburger is still sticking on our mouth, we take a look to the mountain in front of us.

No, to be precise, not the mountain but what’s beyond the mountain.

“........A battle huh.”

Without even seeing it, the atmosphere is telling us about it.

“Yes, and at a considerable scale.” (Forna)

“This is strange, I heard that the all parts of the World Alliance currently is in half destroyed state, aren’t they? But in spite of that, even I could tell what kind of atmosphere this is.” (Lagaia)

“But, this drifting smell of blood, the dark clouds that marred the sky, and the hot air around is unmistakenably the atmosphere of battlefield-dazou.” (Kaizer)

“Indeed. The life and death of more than tens of thousands people are spreading over on the other side of this mountain.” (Arusha)

An expanse of calm world spreads in front of us.

But despite that, there’s a certain something that eve I could feel and being transmitted on my skin.

The reason that I could tell that this is the smell of battle, is because my experience told me as such.

“Hey, Princess Forna. How is the situation of military forces at Divine Race Continent presently?” (Kishin)

“Nothing special, each races only placed their bare minimum to protect their territory. Furthermore, putting into mind the defense of each races’ home continent and countries, they’re really of insignificant number.” (Forna)

“Yes. But right now, from the feeling me got about this battle, it is a war on the scale of tens of thousands.” (Kishin)

Tens of thousands lives are clashing against each other. That in itself is undoubtedly a war.

But, this is strange. With how the World Alliance was founded, I heard that in the current Divine Race Continent there’s no more wars like it was previously.

“Hey, so wat we gonna do? We push thru as is?” (Jackpot)

“Aah? Hell of course we gonna push through! Cosmos is right beyond this place, we can just beat up both side doing this stupid war!” (Chirotan)

“Wait there, Chirotan. Even for us, entering a war and attacking with no plan is of no meaning. Firstly we need to grasp the situation over there.” (Barnando)

It’s as Barnando said.

In the first place, who is fighting who in this war?

Depending on that, or line of action could completely change......

“Velt-sama! Below! Look below there!” (Eljela)

Hm? At that moment, Eljela seemed to have noticed something, we poked our head out from Jack’s back and looked down.

Over there, a small patch of fallen trees and a slight amount of smoke, at the center of it a large number of people have fallen down, there’re even nearly almost a hundred people there you know?

“H, hey, that!”

Moreover, there are armors, swords, horses, so clearly they’re an army. No, from the scope maybe a company?

Their numbers maybe a bit low but they’re devastated!

“Huh? That flag......”

Flag? Kaa-kun and Barnando spotted a ragged flag from the destroyed company.

That flag, a shape of lascivious lips seemed to be drawn on it.

“It’s Erosvitch army’s flag-dazou!” (Kaizer)

“Could it be, they were the survivors of Erosvitch army?” (Barnando)

When I realized it, Kaa-kun and Barnando have descended from the sky.

Oi oi, that’s was dangerous.

“Can’t be helped. Jack-kun, let us go down too.” (Arusha)

“Roger.” (Jackpot)

Those fallen group didn’t even twitch.

Probably, they’ve already.....

But still, we chase after Kaa-kun and Barnando who couln’t help but comedown, then what is down there came to our sight.

“This is.....” (Velt)

“This is terrible. Such a disastrous outcome must have been because......” (Arusha)

Having come down to the surface, what appeared in our view is a disastrous sight that made us wanted to avert our eyes.

Heaps of corpses of cat people and dog people that have turned into pieces of meat.

It made me wanted to puke.

Moreover, these soldiers clearly weren’t defeated in normal way.

“Hey, Kishin......” (Velt)

“Yes. These aren’t wounds caused by swords, spears, arrows, or even magic......” (Kishin)

“Bullets huh......” (Jackpot)

Mixed with the drifting about smell of decay and blood is the smell of gunpowder.

And the wounds left on the corpses are those of being shot by bullets.

“But still, this is so merciless..... just how many of the tens of thousands were.....” (Arusha)

“Right. It even makes me want to cover my eyes. It’s good that Cosmos isn’t here to see it right, Eljela.” (Ura)

“Ugh...... disgusting...... big brother, I’m, can I go over there?” (Yuzuriha)

“Yeah, this ain’t realy sumthin’ to be look at.” (Jackpot)

“M, me too, seriously can’t.” (Althea)

This is a disastrous scene caused by being shot through by large number of bullets. To be capable of making the though bodies of the demihumans’ to be like this, this is the overwhelming truth that defies the conventional wisdom regarding power of this world.

And just recently, we fought against the force that able to make such a thing possible.

“Machine monsters huh......” (Velt)

Those damn irritating piece of junks.

They sure went and did it. Doing something as horrible as this.....

There’s no survivor. They’re utterly annihilated.

“Most probably, the remnant army wanted to take revenge on Erosvitch’s foe, and brought the war to Love and Peace. They seemed to be a detached force that went and got discovered by the machine monsters.......” (Barnando)

“Which means, those who are fighting beyond here are the remnants of Erosvitc’s army-zou. But still......” (Kaizer)

“Indeed. There’s no way the army that lacks it’s main force to be able to win.” (Barnando)

This power once again made itself known.

Kaa-kun then grasped his fist tightly with his whole strength, I can see that he’s brimming with rage.

“I won’t acknowledge a fight against this kind of thing-zou. It robbed away all that one have accumulated in a single instant, a power that one can’t go against, they are soulless beings, they have no pride nor cause. These kind of things....... to think they’d overturn the history of wars that has ensued on since distant past, what a tragedy-dazou.” (Kaizer)

Now that I think about it, ever since the appearance of the machine monsters, Kaa-kun has been disgusted by them to the point it’s strange.

Perhaps it’s the pride of a former military man and hero who has fought on the world level.

Even though he lost, Kaa-kun still showed respect even against the Heroes that he hated, I’m sure he felt it’s nothing but disrespectful for those who risked their lives having to fight against those junks and bullets of lead.

“Keh, how useless. Like hell there’s tragedy or shits in war. Just kill with anything you have.” (Chirotan)

“No, Chirotan, I think it’s only you who thought of things as that simple. It’s just, me too...... I felt that the machine monster’s power to be disagreeable.” (Lagaia)

“I can’t say I like it ma self. With how thing’s turned out like dis and all.” (Jackpot)

Well, in the world war in our previous life, this kind of power is something common and everywhere in modern days.

It’s to the point of being even not able to see the faces of the enemies despite being soldiers.

In my mind it was like shooting against enemies that you have never seen before, bomb raid them, and then repeat.

When I thought it like that, a duel between generals is, well, I don’t feel it’s anything chivalrous but putting that aside, I agree with Chii-chan’s opinion that there’s no tragedy or shits in a war.

“We don’t have the time to make a grave..... Kaa-kun.” (Velt)

“I know-zou.” (Kaizer)

As Kaa-kun looked down, he easily stomped onto the ground around two or three times.

And then a thick greenery grew in abundance from the earth, putting all the corpses on the surrounding within it’s gentle embrace.

“I’m sorry for only being able to bury you like this-zou. However, in exchange....... I won’t forgive them-zou! As one of the Heavenly Beast Demihumans, I will avenge all of you without fail!” (Kaizer)

Kaa-kun declared to the demihumans that have lost their lives and then turned back.

“I won’t stand still-zou. Let’s make haste, Velt-kun.” (Kaizer)

“..........Yeah......” (Velt)

“Most probably, there will be a greater amount of soldiers beyond this point, pitting war against those machine monsters-dazou. Velt-kun, apologize, but over there I shall.......” (Kaizer)

“It’s alright, I understand.” (Velt)

“.....I am grateful.” (Kaizer)

Even with them not being his subordinates, fellow demihumans have stood up to avenge their general, they died a noble death but tragically.

I’m sure Kaa-kun can’t hold himself back.

That’s why, I’ve already expected that [apologize] from him in a way.

That is, he won’t be involved with [the raid on the Desneyland to save Cosmos] but going to [lend his strength to the demihumans that are currently fighting], that’s what he was meaning.

Well, Cosmos’ case is my personal affair after all.

“Hey, we’re going! Also, that’s the end with all the picnic stuff. We don’t know when those machine monsters will appear.” (Velt)

That’s why I can’t force Kaa-kun to help me.

Besides, it’s not like I can’t understand Kaa-kun’s feeling.

“Kaa-kun. If Cosmos is inside Desneyland, then we’ll be going in. That’s why, if the demihumans are fighting against the machine monsters nearby Land, we will use the chaos and infiltrate inside.” (Velt)

“Very well-zou. I shall go berserk on the outside-zou.” (Kaizer)

That’s why I nodded to him. Signaling that I understood everything.

And as everyone also understood that there’s no stopping Kaa-kun’s will, they stayed silent and once again hop onto Jack’s back and flew forward.

“Velt. It’s fine if ya take advantage of da chaos ‘n infiltrate in but ya needta be quick ‘bout it.” (Jackpot)

“That’s right. If the demihuman army were to be annihilated before we came, then it’d be for nothing.” (Lagaia)

Yeah, I think so.

Jack flew, cutting through the winds and gradually becoming faster.

The battle of demihumans must be on going beyond that mountain.

“The closer we got, the more we could feel it.” (Velt)

“Yes, this presence, it’s close!” (Forna)

It’s just over there.

We can hear it.....

“ “ “ “ “OAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!” “ “ “

The roar of the beasts is causing the heaven and earth to tremble!

There’s no mistake about it!

“There! Over there!”

And in the next instant, we were overwhelmed by the sight on the great plains beyond the mountain peak.

It was a sight of beasts baring their fangs and their intent to kill in defiance.

“H, hey, that’s quite a lot!”

“Yeah, though they’re remnants, there are several tens of thousan’ o’ them!” (Jackpot)

Truly, with how they’re rushing through the plains with their body and soul, I could feel what Kaa-kun called as [soul] from the dauntless courage of the demihumans as they charge.

And, the enemies who came to clash against those souls are the soulless machine monsters.

“Look, there are many machine monsters too!” (Arusha)

“In the war against us before there were already hundreds of them, but now thousands...... no, even more than that!” (Forna)

The demihumans are completely packing the great plains.

However, at the destination that army are advancing to, a single horizontal line existed, made of the merciless light of bullets and big explosions of missiles, unfolding flames that burn through everything, no matter how greater the numbers demihumans boasted, the machine monsters eluded them of their destination.

As a result of that, the soldiers who bear the seductive flag are being turned into pieces of meat one after another, their corpses piling up, dyeing the plains into pure red.

“No good-zou! Their numbers are indeed many but the machine monsters aren’t enemies that mere numbers could make do against them-zou!” (Kaizer)

“Indeed, at this rate their charge will become useless. And adding up to the sacrifices in vain!” (Arusha)

“Kuh, there’s no helping it. They still haven’t known how terrifying the machine monsters could be.” (Forna)

“But, we need to stop them or at this rate......” (Eljela)

That’s right.

Even as they rush forward and bringing forth their zeal, the valor of the demihumans won’t bring down the machine monsters’......

“..............Huh?” (Velt)

Formation....... eh....... wha?

“Huh?”

“What?”

“....t, this is.....”

At that moment, everyone seemed to have realized something.

No, it’s true that the situation still won’t end with gruesome finish.

Presently, countless number of demihumans are raising their death throes.

But......

“N, no, onii-chan, it’s true that the demihumans are receiving a great deal of casualties but.....” (Lagaia)

“H, hey, Velt, those guys, they’re unexpectedly...... well matched right?” (Althea)

Yeah. Even from the point of view of a layman like Althea, it’s also seemed like that.

That’s right. The demihumans army is indeed receiving damage.

But.....

“The machine monsters’ formation also isn’t....... broken through, is it not?” (Barnando)

They’re huge, hard, and furthermore loaded with weapons outside of common sense.

If thousands of those machine monsters were to line up and lay in wait, even a suicide attack would become something reckless.

But despite that.....

“Hey, wat’s dat! That one part of the army jumped forward by themselves!” (Jackpot)

Amidst the tens of thousands remnant army of Erosvitch, a single group of soldiers conspicuously rushed ahead so distinctively.

That’s because they are stepping through their deceased comrades’ corpses, advancing to the machine monsters’ formation, and dealing serious damage to them with such a force!

“Wait, what the hell with that nonsense speed! Penetrating power! Destructive force! Rather, those guys literally just passed through the machine monsters!” (Velt)

“What’s going on!” (Forna)

“Wait a sec, GURAAAAA! I’ve never heard something like this!” (Chirotan)

“U, unbelievable. Those machine monsters are being handled like that.” (Eljela)

“Is this, a dream?”

“A........amazing........” (Kishin)

Now, I’m not being conceited but my comrades, including their achievements, are unmistakenably the strongest group in the world.

And now all of them, not excluding even a single one, are being shocked by the sight in front of their eyes.

Even that Chii-chan, also Kishin too.

“Hey, Barnando! What’s the meaning of this-dazou! Did Erosvitch army become that strong in the time I wasn’t around?” (Kaizer)

“I don’t know myself! No, rather, that is...... where have I.......” (Barnando)

Even the representatives of demihumans, Kaa-kun and Barnando are shocked.

That’s just how much oppressive power that demihuman army holds, even as they sacrificed many, the machine monsters are being pulverized one after another.

Who in the world are those guys?

The moment everyone thought that, Barnando seemed to realize something.

“Mh....... the flags that army put up, those aren’t Erosvitch’s!” (Barnando)

Eh? Not from Erosvitch’s army?

Then, who?

We concentrated our eyes, and look at the flag of the army that’s doing such a massive break through.

Could it be they’re reinforcements that came to aid Erosvitch’s remnant army? But then, from where.....

“Huh? Hey....... b, big brother...... that is......” (Yuzuriha)

“.................A.............AAAAAAAAAAH!” (Jackpot)

Yuzuriha and Jack opened their eyes wide.

And then they finally realized it.

The flags that the advancing demihumans are hoisting have [truth] word in it.

“Geh!”

“EEEK!”

“Wait!”

“Ooooi, it’s, it’s that guy!”

“Wao!”

We finally realized it.

“GUWAAHAHHAHHAHHA! GUWAAHAHHAHHAHA! GUWAHAHHAHHAHA! What, you can’t chew it through huh! In the end, that’s just how far guys who have erection can go! There’s no way eternal virgins that can’t copulate for lifetime could make my fighting spirit excited!”

That steady advance continues, along with an overwhelming wildness the army keeps advancing, and spearheading them is......

“Trash dad!” (Yuzuriha)

“A......... ain’t that old man!” (Jackpot)

“.......I, ........Isamu!”

The strongest beast in the world.

One of the Four Heavenly Beasts Demihumans.

Isamu the Martial God.

Also, the men who follows after him.

“UOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!”

“GAAAAAAAAAAAA!”

“GUWAGAAAAAAAAAAAAA!”

The wild samurais who came and swung their blades.

“It’s, it’s the Shinsengumi! Along with vice chief Toushi! There’s also Sorushi the captain of the first squad!” (Barnando)

“What the! So Shinsengumi has come to help Erosvitch’s army-zou!” (Kaizer)

They sunk their deadly fangs into machine monsters who mercilessly launched their heavy firearms, changing the warring history of the world, the samurais who have inherited the soul of the small island country from our previous life.

“Miyamoto Kendo – Tenkuu Yakou Hiten’ou Ryuu Zanmaken!”

TL note: 天空夜光飛天皇龍斬魔剣(Sky Noctilucence Flying Dragon Emperor Evil Beheading Sword)

Despite not being a missile, it’s explosion was rivaling the missile itself.

H, hey....... those machine monsters, just now, some tens of them got pulverized altogether you know?

“GAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA! Ooh~, as expected, I got rusted because the two years of nothing to do~. GAHAHAHAHAHA!”

Hearty! Monster! Out of norm!

We can only gawk for a moment there.
