Chapter 224 Dogeza and Fairy

Dang, using boot time scan really made my laptop load faster. Been really more than a year since I last did it

 

Chapter 224 Dogeza and Fairy

 

“Guwahahaha, mole bastards....... bunch of introverts who shut in yourselves below the earth...... You haven’t reached the level that could impress me!” (Isamu)

I no longer knew which ones are the roars that came from allies or enemies.

“Bastards, I’ll kill you all!”

“Bring it on already, you lowly grunts!”

“Ya wanna a piece of me, kora!”

“Fine by me you idiots!”

“Don’t be tempted to attack using certain kill techniques! It will leave large gap!”

“They’re still flesh other than their drills. Aim carefully!”

In exact opposite of the celestials who are comprised of beautiful angels, the subterraneans are reeking of male body odor and have bad figures.

But thanks to that, I don’t have any reservations to just go and beat them up.

“Who are these guys, they’re quite strong!”

“Hey, don’t falter! They’re only bottom feeder rubbishes!”

“That’s right. We shall offer this life to [Goddrilla]-sama!”

Since their attack has been exposed, then there’s nothing to be afraid of. In spite of how they are currently trying to do a night raid, it’s so evident that the subterraneans are flustered by the strength of our side.

Their power is fine, it’s just their match up is bad.

“Capture as many as you can! We’re going to make them spit out informations! Don’t only pay attention to things before your eyes, but also on alert to what’s below you!” (Barnando)

“Understood, Administrator Barnando!”

TL note: Barnando’s title here is 参謀(Sanbou) which means staff officer. But uh isn’t it weird to think of him as mere staff? Well, I’m gonna use administrator until there are more info about it later.

“Kuuh, I knew it. Grand Master geezer’s instructions are more precise than Chief’s, it’s making fight easy!”

Once they avoided the surprise attack, the demihumans are the strongest in the world when it comes to melee combat.

Even if those bombastic drills are coming to stab them, they are led by the nose using the speed of demihumans, defeating the subterraneans one after another.

And once they turned careful of what comes next they’ll....

“Hohou. They’re not bad, something I’d expect since they are always in the war since ancient times. These creatures of the surface. Well, it’s just an average level though.”

“Hm? What are you talking about, youngster.” (Isamu)

I’m sure there should be several of them among these groups, their champions that we haven’t seen.

Just like how the celestials have Ligantina, Eljela, and the War Maidens,

The subterraneans too must have those guys of different class.

The question now, is on what level they are.

“Right here......”

“........We will”

“................Show you all.”

Three men with large build, slender build, and small build with all of them having hand towel being wrapped in their heads are slowly approaching Isamu.

The large build man have finger sized drills on both of his hands as his fingers, the slender man has drills on both of his shoulders, and the small man has drill on his back looking like a shell.

These guys have manly air drifting about them, their tanktops-wearing form is like those guys from the construction site.

And then, with how those three seemingly aren’t just someone ordinary, many of the subterraneans are cheering.

“Ooh! They’re from [Underland Subterranean Kingdom ], the trio of [Okusoko District]!”

“Once the three combine their power, in the future they could even rival the power of  [Goddrilla]-sama’s subordinates the [Five Helix Spears], they’re the brutes of the Uraji Ward!”

At this moment, a certain hunch passed through my mind.

No, it’s no longer a hunch it’s closer to premonition.

Those subterraneans are introducing the three that are approaching Isamu using some unknown words and doing so with much hype, but all of these are just [flags].

“Come, you’ll become our oppone---------“

“How noisy!”

Yeah, it’s the [insta-kill flag].

Look here, do the World’s Strongest Five really need to insta-kill enemies that come at them with full of confidence like that?

For some reason, that certain group that exudes the air of [shall we play?] while showing such an awesome expression on their faces are now getting instantly chopped down by Isamu.

“Kukukukuku, boring........... I heard they made a mess out of the world but how boring. So boring!”

After coming this far, I’d feel pity for them had Cosmos wasn’t at stake.

It’s as Isamu said, no matter how impressive the subterraneans are as a race, there’s no way they could win against Isamu and others who have kept on continuing the history of wars on this wide surface world.

“That’s...... Impossible! Those three have!”

“He, he’s a monster!”

“Shit, don’t falter! They’re merely one brain celled rubbishes. No matter how impressive his physical ability is, we who are the supreme beings are of advantage!”

“Offer your soul to the helix!”

“Sacrifice!”

The subterraneans’ faces turned pallid, though I fee pity for them, their prospects were already decided, despite the futile struggle they did.

They’re being surrounded by the demihumans, cut down, and were captured.

“Such a night raid without any plan. Well, things seemed to have ended.” (Velt)

I looked over the state of things and confirmed our victory.

And, it happened at that moment.

“.........rustle rustle........”

Huh?

Though they’re enemies, though what’s gonna come to them already decided, the subterraneans are mostly still resolute in their struggle, a lone subterranean is sneakily separating himself from the chaotic battle.

Though he’s smeared all over with dirt, there’s no sign of any blood smeared on him, it’s as if he wasn’t fighting at all.

And in accordance with that, I could tell that he’s erasing his presence and trying to escape.

“Kuhahahaha, you’ve troubled yourselves to come here, why are you trying to escape now!” (Velt)

The enemy that seems to be escaping, for some reason I don’t like his petty conduct.

While feeling repugnant of him, I stealthily aimed at the escaping guy.

“Fuwa Fuwa Retrival!”

The subterranean is surprised and shaking his body around as to go against me, but he isn’t able to shake off my power.

Though he struggles and rampaging around, I float him up and move him above the battle field, carrying him to in front of me and have him roll on the ground.

“Kuhahahahaha, yo. Since you’re gonna run away, how about you return someone’s daughter first?” (Velt)

I can’t see the expression of the subterranean who is wrapped in ragged cloak and hood but I can tell that he’s scared.

As I was facing against him and try to agitate him, in the next instant, he took off his cloak and did something incomprehensible.

With a voice that really sounds tiresome and listless.....

“Aah~, uh, how to say it? I’m sorry. No, seriously, I was getting carried away. I will happily lick your boots or even your vomit, so please spare me my life.”

DOGEZA. I don’t know about Isamu, but doing that to me?

Moreover, there’s something that feel very out of place with the dogeza.

That is, it’s as if he doesn’t put any heart or feelings to it. There’s also no feel of being franticin it.

It’s because the guy who’s doing dogeza in front of me really said those words so monotonously, looking as if saying [what a bother] [I wanna go home quick],

And.......

“No, I was really forced to participate here, so please let me go.”

Upon looking at the man’s real face with his cloak off, I was surprised.

“.......You’re....... a subterranean........ right?” (Velt)

Subterranean. There’s no mistake about it. After all, his right arm is a drill right from the wrist.

But, as much as I ended up asking him, he’s different from the usual subterranean.

Because, for most of the subterraneans, other than one part of their body somewhere being a drill, they all have the common trait of having their mouth as a beak like drill.

However, this guy doesn’t have it. He has the mouth a normal human has, fair skinned, and ears too mostly looked human.

His black hair is of normal length but his bangs are covering his eyes so they can’t be seen. Something like this, if I’m not mistaken it’s called [hidden eyes] or so I heard.

Yeah, if not for his right hand then he’s mostly human.

“For a subterranean, other than having a beak, a part of their body is a drill........ your face is a normal human but your right hand is drill........ are you really a subterranean?”  (Velt)

“Ah, I’m a half subterranean. My idiot dad did it with a human woman and I was born as a result of that. But since I’m a half I’m quite being disliked. I’m not seen as a normal subterranean, instead they’re treating as a subterranean now at time like this, really give me a break.”

“A half huh.....  now this is getting complicated...... but, since you’re a subterranean you understand the situation right?” (Velt)

“Ah, I was left out, so I don’t really know. Those guys, they only said that those creatures at the surface are rubbishes, and so I who have half a human blood in me is a half assed rubbish. But despite that, I was told that those who don’t participate in this attack, will have their house be confiscated and something like getting expelled from school, so I had no choice but to participate. Seriously, I’m sorry right there.”

His tone sounded like everything is such a pain but it doesn’t seem he’s lying. I mean, it felt quite self –depreciating too.

No, I mean, all of your race is fighting right now......

At that time, upon looking at the guy who’s doing dogeza in front of me, other subterraneans simultaneously raised their voices.

“Bastard! Doing dogeza to a rubbish, why are you doing such a disgraceful thing, [Neeto]!”

“That half rubbish...... his soul is also rotten, you good for nothing!”

“For him to defile the helix he offered to Goddrilla –sama, what a fool!”

For some reason he’s being yelled at so much. Well, this is a moment where they’re like, ‘let’s put our lives on the line and do our best’, so of course things gonna turn like that when he alone does dogeza and begs for his life.

And then, the subterranean who lowered his head in front of me, the guy called [Neeto] raised his head, and objected as if it’s the usual thing.

“What are you talking about. To begin with, even with I betting my life to fight there’s no change that I’m still gonna be valued as a half-baked, so why am I need to put my life on the line and fight now?  And even if my value does raised up, I’m not gonna consider trying to elevate my value to the point of putting my life on it. Firstly, life is so very important. No, this is serious. My plan for life is to eat, sleep, and repeat, then die alone, so seriously pardon me from all this please.”

“What the........ you, are you meaning to turn yourself in to those rubbishes that lay waste to this world and put it n danger!”

“No, I don’t do anything bad. War is bad. The world is bad. The era is bad. I mean you know, it’s something this. Since the world normally doesn’t kind to me, so I don’t really have any responsibility to save it when it gets in trouble. Well, if you wanna say I’m the bad one here then I’m fine being bad, but still I have to say this. Spare me from dying, seriously.” (Neeto)

This is, well, quite the rare type of guy huh. I’m not talking about his race, but his personality.

I’ve met many kind of people all this time but unexpectedly this is the first time I’m seeing one like him.

His instinct as a person. [Sluggish], [because I don’t want to die I don’t want to go to war], [this is so suffocating, I’m tired of it from the bottom of my heart], or things like that.

This kind of thing is ‘something like that. While everyone in a group are working hard for their goal, a single guy can’t read the mood and said something that makes the mood worsened, that kind of guy.

But naturally.....

“Since that’s the case, if you bring back my daughter I’m gonna let you off with just half dead.” (Velt)

Still, I won’t go easy.

I grabbed Neeto’s head, and glared at him close in intimidation.

“Well, yes. Your daughter, right? I don’t really know but okay, anyway it’s not something I can decide by myself, can I just carry her back again after once you see her?”

“Hey hey, don’t talk like some beta salesman alright? Answer whether you can or can’t. If you can’t then I’m gonna put you into Fuwa Fuwa full course!” (Velt)

“No, wait. There’s nothing [absolute] in this world, my personal opinion is that sticking [absolute] into things will make it’s credibility turned thin instead, so for the case, I will try to return her with all my might, what do you think?”

“No worries there. Even if you don’t give it your best there, I still have the option of killing all of my enemies.” (Velt)

He turned quite loose lipped after being threatened by me, but as I grab his head, I felt a certain out of place feeling with this guy.

“.......Huh?” (Velt)

It might be true that he doesn’t want to fight.

Him saying that war is worthless could be true too.

But, there’s something that I felt after touching him, and that made me spontaneously reacted.

It’s something that I could feel after having met some of the world’s strongest, fought against them, and overcome them, something like a sixth sense maybe?

This guy......... isn’t he......... pretty strong?

“Wait, Neeto-kun, I didn’t say anything for a while before but why are you saying such pathetic things now!”

Did I let my guard down? At the moment I was momentarily spacing out, Neeto’s chest shone!

Magic? An attack? Huh, why Neeto himself is making that shocked face!

No, what was that voice just now? It was like a girl’s voice......

“Velt what’s wrong!” (Forna)

“Velt-kun!” (Arusha)

“Trash husband!” (Yuzuriha)

I spontaneously jumped back and opened up a distance.

Neeto  who has separated from me slowly pulled up his collar and peeked inside.

And then, a ball of light came out flickeringly from Neeto’s collar, it then jumped out from his tanktop.

And that is.......

“Neeto-kun, reaaally, put some spirit into it! To be honest, aren’t you quite strong yourself! But despite that, you hide a lady inside your collar and do dogeza, just what are you thinking!”

What, the?

“Eh! Th,...... that’s!”

“Eh, a, a midget......?”

Midget? What came out from the inside of Neeto’s  clothes is a palm sized little girl?

Her clothing is green and fluttering. Her hair is a mixture of pink and red colors, with big and round eyes.

And then, on her back are wings like that of insects.......

“Velt, that is...... a fairy!” (Forna)

“No way....... this is also my first time seeing it. It’s like something out of fairytale.....” (YUzuriha)

.......I think so too....... it’s a fairy you know. One that often comes out in a fairytale, a real fairy!

If I’m not mistaken, they’re being classified as part of the cryptids.... but, why is a fairy here?

Not only that, despite a fairy being such a thing from fantasy, she’s very much like a human as she inflated her cheeks in anger.

“You, so you sneaked into my clothes again huh......” (Neeto)

“Yes~, you must have realized it right? You really have realized it right? Aren’t you super lucky with having to carry such a cute lady?”

“No, really, seriously, give me a break from that. Ah, sorry. This fly is getting in our way, but please forgive me for that.” (Neeto)

“I’m not a fly, but a fairy! Besides, since Neeto-kun is strong, this is a big chance for Neeto-kun to raise up my good impression of you, don’t you think! In fact, show it so much that I can’t help but fall for you so unwittingly!”

“Stupid, are you. Don’t you know something about treating a life preciously? No matter how much a dramatic setting I’m in, I won’t be throwing away my life just for raising up my good impression to a girl!” (Neeto)

“What did you mean with just for, what was that just for! Listen well now? This is a big chance for Neeto-kun to make me fall for you, you know? It’s a chance that won’t come again for the dark and gloomy Neeto-kun you know? It’s a chance of that suspension bridge effect, you know?”

“What are you saying. Suspension bridge effect is something that will turn unexpectedly cold once things has passed, I heard it’s like [for some reason, it’s more boring than I thought], it is something that much more of a shock rather than normally getting rejected.” (Neeto)

And, why are they showing us something similar to a lover’s quarrel like this?

“You’re so noisy, trashes. You wanna die?” (Yuzuriha)

“No no, Yuzuriha, what the heck did you say so easily like that.... or well that’s what I wanted to say.....” (Velt)

Anyways, it was good that if I could just beat him up in one go, but because I did it poorly and made an opening, for some reason we ended up meeting with something strange.

Not good not good. I’m getting dragged in by the atmosphere.

“Fuwa Fuwa Laser!” (Velt)

“Eh.....Hyai!”

“Uwoah! .......o, ooh...... amazing, what was that?” (Neeto)

I didn’t mean to hit him. It’s just passing through next to him. However, this is enough for a threat.

The laser that I let out from my arm, passed through  right next to those flirting duo.

“Be it a fly or fairy, their value are nothing compared to Cosmos. So it’s up to you to shut up and listen to what I say, or be shown what a hell is, your choice.” (Velt)

As expected even the fairy is getting scared, she gulped down her breath and hid in Neeto’s shadow.

“Wait, Neeto-kun. What did he mean with his daughter? Did someone kidnapp his daughter?”

“Seems so. I’m sure it was done with that operation a few days ago, wasn’t it?” (Neeto)

“Eeeeeh, so something like that happened. Wait, you seriously got excluded out. I mean, can you actually do anything about it instead?”

“No well, can’t really say if you ask me. On the other hand, there, look, it’s him. That insolent looking guy, isn’t he the one that Mannie told us about?” (Neeto)

Mannie! The moment I heard that name, I was already grabbing Neeto’s lapels when I realized it.

“Bastard, so you’re in position to talk with Mannie?” (Velt)

“Wait, no, it was something we talked about by chance, it’s not like I’m friend with her. In fact, I’m someone who don’t have any friend.  And since I don’t have any friends, you can say she’s a complete stranger......” (Neeto)

“You wanna die?” (Velt)

“No, seriously, I’ll try talk something out, just spare me for that alright.” (Neeto)

Yeah, even if I were to slaughter all the subterraneans, if they don’t have any connection with Love and Peace then there’s no meaning to it.

What’s important here is, to reach where Mannie is and take back Cosmos.

So I can understand why I put strength into my arms to a subterranean who uttered Mannie’s name out of his mouth who I met accidentally.

“Oi, trash husband, why are you gossiping around so much. That made me irritated. Stop doing something so dull, just kill them all already.” (Yuzuriha)

“Yuzuriha..... I’ll take you as joking just now so be quiet for a bit.” (Velt)

“Higuh! U, wha, what, you want to hit my butt again? .... uuuuuuu........... don’t bully me like that...... you’re my husband already.......” (Yuzuriha)

Don’t sulk alright.

Honestly, now that I think about it, the cause of Yuzuriha’s hasty personality isn’t because of the lack of discipline or anything, it really can’t be helped since her father is like that, the thought somehow got into my mind.

And upon seeing our exchange, the fairy and Neeto looked surprised.

“Husband......... eh, a couple of demihuman and human? Woo—w, that’s so lovely isn’t it, interracial marriage is a super romantic fantasy! This is the true charm of the world! Don’t you think so? Neeto-kun! Interracial marriage is something worthy of celebration instead you know!”  

“Eh, she looks small, and also a demihuman....... what’s that, loli bestiality?” (Neeto)

“Neeto-kun, you’re the worst! Why did you say that? Love knows no national border or race! Yes, that onii-san looks a bit scary but for the sake of the child he’s having with her, he’ll......”

Huh? The fairy’s words gotten slightly high for some reason, Yuzuriha then put a retort nonchalantly on a certain part.

“The one who was kidnapped wasn’t the child I gave birth to.” (Yuzuriha)

“.........Eh? Huh........ eh, what? Um, could it be you’re the second wife.....”

Somehow, the fairy’s smile turned stiff but it’s not anything good under this kind of situation......

“Hey, Velt! What are you guys doing for a while now. Everyone around has mostly done you know?” (Ura)

“Ura......” (Velt)

“Geez, for you to be lazing around by yourself in a place like this and only giving out works to your wife, that isn’t something admirable you know?” (Ura)

It’s as Ura said, as we’re doing something useless here, the subterraneans in the surroundings have been dealt with one way or another.

There were some that have fallen, there were also those that have been captured, there’s nothing that could be done with their situation anymore.

Ura who has finished her task knocked my chest jokingly, and the fairy once again reacted with our action.

“Eh....... wife? Eh? But, she is, huh? Eh, but, she said husband........ then, the child who was kidnapped is yours?”

“No, um, you know, look at the situation. Well, I’m surprised that the scary human made such a complicated household but this isn’t the time for that. Though, seriously. It seems everyone has been defeated.” (Neeto)

“Hm? Hey, Velt, why are they....... a fairy? Why is she with a subterranean? And what else? Gave birth? Kidnapped...... They’re talking about Cosmos right? .....Well, I wasn’t the one who gave birth to her though.......” (Ura)

Yeah, that’s how it is.

The fairy is in misunderstanding and seems confused. But then.....

“Velt-sama! Gosh, what are you doing in this place! .......Um, please don’t leave me alone......”

Eljela slightly puffed up her cheeks and wrapped her arms and face on mine, so I half desperately brushed her gently. As I felt the painful stare of the fairy.

“Now now now now, Neeto-kun, is this one too? Even with this you’re still not interested?”

“No, you see, maybe the surface has that kind of culture? More than that, we need to look at the situation. I mean, I’m really gonna escape alright.” (Neeto)

“Eeh, that’s, rather than the surface, it’s what’s usual in the world, isn’t it? Having so many wives, does he a lord from somewhere?”

What? Why am I getting my mood ruined up by a fairy that I just met today?

Nah, I’m getting my senses driven out of order because of Isamu, well it’s mostly me but that’s unrelated now.

“Guwahahahahaha, what’s going on~?  Why are you idling around at that kind of place and having talk that reeks of a virgin girl, Velt.” (Isamu)

With an expression full of vigor that’s unthinkable for someone who just fought against the subterraneans, Isamu approached while holding a sake bottle in one of his hand.

“Yo...... good work.” (Velt)

“What, that wasn’t a work. I didn’t really move much after all. At most I cut off around a hundred people.” (Isamu)

A, hundred people...... see, the fairy and Neeto-kun got stiffened and trembled when they see you.

“There are some things that got in the way but we made the captured prisoners to spit out things about the subterraneans, subterranean world, and Love and Peace. For now, we will on watch for their reinforcements so you guys should go sleep.” (Isamu)

When I look around, the subterraneans’ hands and feet are tied with rope, they are vigorously resisting as they showed their bitterness for all to see while gnashing their teeth.

Well, I don’t know how those captured guys gonna be treated in the end, I also don’t want to know, I don’t really feel sympathy to them too.

Forna and others are also viewing the scene with experienced eye.

“And so? Who is that fairy and subterranean? As expected, a fairy is too small so I can’t mate with her.” (Isamu)

“HYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! Whawhawhawha, wha what’s wrong with this lion guy! Wait, it’s the first time we meet but that’s what’s in his mind! Neeto-kun!”

As expected of Isamu. To think he’d make that sexual harassment remark so suddenly against a fairy, I’m amazed.

However, in response to that, the Neeto guy kept on casting his face down quietly.

His situation looked as if thinking of things that could be done in this situation.

But still, Neeto doesn’t pay any concern to the currently panicking fairy......

“Neeto-kun, seriously now, please fight! Please save me, I absolutely don’t want other people other than Neeto-kun to......  I mean, do your best and raise up my favorability towards you! With Neeto-kun’s drill power, and the power of the prototype Crest Eyes that Mannie-chan and others thought of, your chance will be perfect isn’t it!”

..............................!

“You stupid!” (Neeto)

“...............Ah................that’s........ that was a secret? Ah, uuuuuuuuhhmmm........ forget what I said okay?”

.........Too late......

 We then lost our words and turned stupefied by the words that the fairy said at her wits’ ends.

Then, as Neeto is furiously scratching his head.....

“Aaaaaaaaahh geez, I really just wanted to use it to escape in a bit, so don’t kill me, and don’t so mad with me okay!” (Neeto)

Neeto already turned desperate and raised up his bangs.

“Honestly I don’t really know what’s gonna happen if use these eyes.” (Neeto)

At that moment, a dazzling flash of light spread out to all around......

“...........What? .................” (Isamu)

The earth is trembling violently. It’s an earthquake that could make one spontaneously lost balance.

We staggered unintentionally, the sky also sways,

“Aah, your name is..... alright, you’ll be [Earth]. Can you swallow them up for now?” (Neeto)

Neeto! What the hell are you trying to......

“Understood, Master.”

-----------------------------------------------------!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A submissive sounding voice was heard from somewhere.

In the next moment, as if the earth itself has gained sentient, A huge fissure like mouth cracked out, swallowing us all.

When I looked up in panic, the fissure that made us fall has already closed, only the dark world kept on continuing.
