novelHornless Female
| ← Ch.317 | Ch.319 → |
Hey, I'm Aya~. You devils! Surrender obediently~.
Aya called out to the Devils from behind.
「What? What is it?」
「It's a [hornless] female2! The [hornless] female is speaking our language!」
The Devils, who were traveling northwards, stopped and turned around, wondering what it was.
By the way, the [hornless] that the Devils are referring to is the Human race.
「I was wondering what it was, turns out to be four hornless female. For them to be speaking our language despite being [hornless], they're audacious. Let's use this opportunity to catch these fellows, too, and turn them into slaves. 」
「「Ohh!」」
When the most-important-looking guy gave the order, instead of being vigilant, the Devils approached Aya and the others nonchalantly.
「Even if you bring along such a [kid], she's very unlikely to be of any help. 」
Ah, if you call that person a [kid] or something like that......
「Who's a kid!?」
Bam!
Mai-san, who had been called a [kid], struck that devil with all her might and the struck devil was blown away, slamming into a slightly far-off, large tree and fainted.
「My gawd! T-, This fellow is strong!」
The Devils took three steps backwards and took a vigilant stance.
I mean, they underestimated them too much.
There are probably some people, too, who are wondering how Aya and the others can speak the Devil language.
That's because I made a [Language Acquisition Magic Stone] from which a level 2 [Devil Language] can be acquired and had everyone to acquire it.
And then, as for me......
Turning my body invisible, I lurk.
I'm a ninja!
「You heinous Devils! You were frightened by this pretty Aya-sama, huh! You cowards!」
「Riled up, hornless female, you get cocky when I let you say whatever you want, huh!!」
Oh, the Devils has fallen into the provocation.
With this chance, I......
「You cowardly Devils! You there, if you're scared, get lost!」
「Shit, since things turn out like this, use those hornless slaves as a shield!」
「Yes!」
......
「I-, It's not good!!」
「What happened!!?」
「The hornless slaves...are gone!」
「W-, What!!!?」
Well, I rescued them while those fellows had their guards up against only Aya.
「Aya, I rescued them so that's enough. 」
「Roger~. 」
I hid the people I've rescued in the forest and joined Aya and the others.
「Crap, a hornless male has appeared! That fellow looks strong, he's dressed in head-to-toe black. 」
I'm certainly the strongest among us here~, but is their standard of whether one looks strong or not whether one is black or not?4
I don't understand the Devil race's commonsense.
「You guys, don't get scared! Attack that fellow with an all-out attack!」
When the leader-like guy ordered so, the devils attacked simultaneously.
30 seconds later......
All the 20 or so Devils except for the leader were beaten by us and were knocked out.
「Hii! You monsters5!」
The Devil leader escaped at full speed.
「Ahh, he escaped~. 」
「It's fine since I've quickly put a [Tracking Beacon] on him. 」
With this, we will be able to find the Devil race's town in a while...supposedly.
That fellow must've gotten exhausted while running away, right?
Now, what should we do about the beaten Devils and the rescued hostages~?
At first, the rescued hostages had soulless-looking eyes and didn't talk at all, but when we took the [Slave's Collar] off with [Curse-removing medicine], they immediately became energetic and began to talk.
Since all of them seem to be from Shinju town, I escorted them to Shinju town.
While I'm at it, I should hand over the Devils to Lella.
????????
「Lella, sorry to bother you this late at night. 」
「Se-, Seiji! What's the matter? At such an hour, perhaps, to me......」
「Lella, what are you going to do to onii-chan?」
Aya shows up from behind me.
「Eck! Aya, so you're here, too, huh!」
Good grief, no matter how much time passes, Lella and Aya just won't get along with each other, huh.
「We caught Devils today, so we came here to hand them over to you. 」
「Devils...you say! They've been quiet these days!」
I explained the situation to Lella.
「I see, I will also let the other towns know, but Seiji, do you really plan to attack the Devil race's town with only you guys?」
「It's not like we're going to attack, but the possibility for us to end up doing so is high. 」
When I answered so, Lella had been lost in her thoughts.
And then,
「Seiji, when you attack the Devil race's town......I'm coming, too!」
「Huh!? Lella, what are you saying? You're entrusted to be the feudal lord of Shinju town, right? What about going to the front line?」
「B-, But......」
Even though she was afraid and trembling during the war against the Goblin Prince......
Lella has grown up, too, huh.
「Well, let's talk about it after the Devil race's town is found. 」
「Un. 」
We entrusted the Devils that we caught to Lella and returned to Japan.
