Retired Hero Wants To Sleep

chapter 12



Mission No.1 Return of Magic Swordsman (10)

“OMG! aaa!”

Ewald moved his head as the scream pierced his ears. This is a human voice that’s a woman too I don’t know what the situation was, but at the dizzying scream, Ewald rushed into a battle posture.

It’s over there. Someone was running down the stairs leading down. A person However, halfway up the stairs, the shadow, whose legs were twisted, suddenly lost its balance.

“Ahh? Aww! OMG! Wow! Kak! Wow! Wagak! Agag! Evil!”

Wahjangchang, bang, udangtang, woodadadada!

The blond woman tumbled down the stairs of the monastery downstairs in a dynamic manner.

She stamped her steps in the beat-beep-beep rhythm, sprawled across her floor like a well-spreading frog, but raised herself with terrifying speed.

If it weren’t for this circumstance, she would have applauded what a delightful body gag, but Ewald, noticing a large shadow running down her steps, drew her sword.

The ogre was running down towards the woman, pounding a club the size of a man into the floor.

The problem is that the woman who got up from her seat started screaming without holding a weapon.

“OMG! OMG! aaa!”

“… Did she pretend to die?”

Ewald was dumbfounded. Did you make up your mind to attract demons? Even so, the sound of her tumbling down and grinding her armor on the stairs spread out loud, but you screamed like that?

Her crimson eyes, which could see beyond her dozens of pairs, began to shed her ferocious aura towards her.

Thinking that people should be saved, Ewald grabbed onto the balcony railing and jumped down. There was no time to get to the stairs beyond her.

“Kyaaagh!”

Finally she drew her sword from her waist. A brilliant blade with a sharp blade was terrifyingly pulled out.

Seeing the scene, Ewald’s eyes narrowed sharply.

‘Reel?’

“Aww!”

Scream? No. It’s a spirit. Ewald involuntarily slowed her pace toward her woman.

Drawing her sword, she held her right arm forward, her left hand lightly gripping her pommel. It seemed like nothing, but Ewald forced herself to hold back the goosebumps all over her body.

‘… What is that woman?’

With her weight on her right foot, she moves gracefully forward. She touches the ground proudly with her left foot completing her stance with him. The relaxed appearance of her shoulders is clearly visible from a distance.

It’s a terrifyingly perfect posture.

“Ha!”

Her posture is firmly lowered. At the same time, her left hand holding her pommel is pulled along with her right hand to the left side of her face. Her sword, level with the ground, unmovingly balances its master, exuding an eerie aura.

‘It is clean.’

“Hot!”

She stabbed her sword in a straight line like a flashlight. Ebald nodded her head for a moment at her clean and neat stab.

If it’s that level of stabbing, I can’t stop it with anything.

With him, her woman’s examination began. As she retrieved her knife, which had stabbed herself in front of her, she stepped forward and quickly cut her from top to bottom.

A clean cut that clearly reads the path of the sword. It seems that the afterglow of the sword light will be drawn in the air.

In the moment of her goosebumps, Balt couldn’t say anything and watched her lady’s sword dance.

‘Amazing?’

With her slashed down, she lifts her foot and lands her powerful side kick, then raises her sword horizontally and stabs it in front of her, then twists her sword out, then uses her defensive move to slash in front of her. Tightly closed.

Ewald calculated for a moment how he would be able to defeat her opponent if he were to deal with that girl.

However, he had such great momentum that no answer could easily come out, and at the same time he was delicate.

It’s a great skill

“Haa!”

Wow!

The sound of a knife cutting through the air came terrifyingly. Ewald couldn’t help but admire her swordsmanship with a sincere heart. The fact that such a talented person came down only to be in charge of reconnaissance was unbelievable.

It’s not a scout’s skill.

Then there is only one answer.

‘Could it be that he was sent down to catch the Demon King?’

That’s troublesome Ewald scanned the entire lower floor, looking for a route to go further down. With that lady’s skills, it would be possible to clean up the monsters here in less than five minutes.

But,

“Bout!”

Ewald couldn’t help but feel the strange phenomenon happening around her and around her.

Clearly, she was demonstrating terrifyingly intimidating swordsmanship. It is a threatening attack that puts you on the defensive without even having time to wake up on how to respond to each attack. The transition from offense to defense is also flawless.

But,

“Yaaa!”

Her sword cuts through the air again. As the sword tax continued, Ewald fell into chaos.

Why is she

“That woman, why are you like that? Why are you like that?”

“… Okay.”

Am I cutting a knife alone in empty space?

For a long time, no one was around her. The ogre that had been following her down could not even be seen when she ran away.

The monsters who had approached gloomily at her appearance must have been fed up with her ferocious swordsmanship.

Therefore, her sword has never hit an opponent.

At least there was nothing within a 10 meter radius of her. But her swordsman didn’t know how to stop.

“Kwaaa!”

Quaggagak!

She drew her sword with such tremendous force that one might wonder if she was a human being, regardless of whether she was a man or a woman. The woman lifted her bowed head. She drew a large parabola with a figure that fits the word that her long blonde hair is beautiful.

Is she the finishing blow? If I get hit by that attack, I’ll break it into two pieces. No, even if I block it, it will break in two pieces. Ewald looked at her with a look of sincere admiration on her face.

Even with her back bent to catch her breath, she was in perfect defensive posture.

But,

rustle.

A strange sound was heard. Judging from Ewald’s position, he was on the other side of that lady. A loud scream followed at the same time.

“Kyaaa!”

Her lower back bounced abruptly. However, the movement itself was so simple and clear that there was no superfluity. Ewald’s admiration broke out again.

‘It kills my posture.’

Elif started the sword dance again. It was the result of being frightened by the rustling sound, but Ewald, unaware of it, began to think about why that woman started to glow alone again.

I heard only rustling and nothing appeared.

However, for her madness, it was a perfect swordsmanship that gave goosebumps.

For an instant, an ominous calculation appeared in Ewald’s head. With that kind of skill, even if it was a skilled person sent by the priests, it was enough to convince them. You said you only sent scouts down, but did you send the core troops?

Ebalt, who judged that if that woman met the demon king earlier than Ebalt, the situation the priesthood wanted would unfold, she revealed her teeth and distorted her expression.

Usbel must not be taken away now.

Ewald laid his sword aside and approached the woman.

“Hey, hey, master?”

“Stay here.”

“Yes? Yes?”

Ewald’s posture lowered. Ebalt, who slid on his floor and rushed into the woman’s left rear, synchronized her woman’s knife with great concentration. That woman was still unaware of Ewald.

And Ewald’s eyes suddenly sharpened.

‘It’s here!’

My body was faster than I thought. Ewald drew the knife that had been pulled behind him in front of his eyes. At the same time, the woman’s knife turned behind her. Ewald’s sword collided with the woman’s sword in the expected direction and at the expected height.

Kagagak!

This knife is heavier than expected. Ewald felt a sharp pain in his wrist and reversed his shock. After taking two small backward steps to open the distance, Balt leaned his sword forward and took a stance.

But,

“Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.”

“… What?”

“Ahhh.”

The woman in front of her was biting her lip. Tears welled up in her eyes and looked like they would fall at any moment, and her hands holding the sword were shaking slightly and then gradually increasing the vibration.

This is an unexpected reaction. Ewald couldn’t even figure out what was going on.

Are you crying?

She is a pretty looking girl. She was a lady with a very gentle face, but thanks to her expression that looks like she would burst into tears at any moment, she is a lady I want to protect for some reason.

Ewald feels guilty for nothing.

“Sorry for suddenly interrupting, but it’s okay…”

“Heh heh heh heh heh heh.”

Finally she burst into tears.

It’s embarrassing. The girl who burst into tears, clutching her sword tightly with both hands, stared at Ewald, not even thinking to wipe away her tears.

“Hey. Wow! I’m sorry, but please put the knife away.”

Doesn’t seem to have the will to fight. Ewald pondered for a moment, but she drew the knife aimed at the woman who had no idea whether to live or not. With a sharp sound, his sword went into her scabbard, but she shook her head twice quickly as if she wasn’t like that, then opened her trembling lips again.

“No, not that one, my sword.”

“… Your knife?”

“Yes. I can’t move.”

What are all these women? During his 27 years of confinement, Ewald seriously contemplated whether an epidemic of bizarre humans was spreading. The demon king who is not like that demon king is like that, and this lady is like that too.

“Don’t move.”

Ewald grabbed the space between the sword guard and the young lady’s hand with a cautious but quick movement. If you do this, there will be no sudden stabbing. Ewald breathed a sigh of relief at first.

“Cow, loosen your fingers too.”

“… That much alone.”

“It’s because I’m not strong enough.”

Vary

At last Balt freed her woman’s fingers from her sword, one by one. But it didn’t work out because I was gripping it so tightly that I was ignorant.

Ewald, grateful that she only had ten fingers, yanked her lady’s knife away and freed her last finger.

In an instant, the woman slumped down in her seat,

“aaa!”

She started to weep loudly.

“No, wait. Hey. Hey.”

“Ooooo!”

Even if the country perishes, I will not cry so sadly.

Ewald, deciding that her words would not work, put the knife she was holding down beside her and sat comfortably in front of her lady.

Then, Usbel approached Balt, but she seemed so focused on crying that she didn’t even have time to recognize who was coming.

The girl who cried like that for about 10 minutes eventually stopped crying. When he was on the verge of going mad, Balt drew a smile on his lips with his superhuman endurance.

It’s hard to cry again.

“Hey, lady. Are you okay?”

“Ugh, uh uh uh uh uh uh!”

“… Pop.”

Now Ewald seemed to understand why this young lady was crying.

Ewald turned his head and looked at Usbel. Usbel nodded her head a couple of times, apparently aware of Ewald’s thoughts, then raised one of her hands and pointed at her woman, posing as her body trembled.

It’s just scary

“Hey. Hey, lady.”

Ewald spoke in a low voice to the woman, who said that her crying had stopped a lot, but she couldn’t even catch her breath.

“If it doesn’t stop, I will leave it.”

“Hey!”

The woman who shuddered at her body turned to Balt, her eyes still dripping with tears. Still, to some extent, it seems that her sanity has returned. Out of time, Ewald drew the knife that had been thrown aside at his side.

“Are you a scout belonging to the Caucasian Battalion?”

“Yes. But who are you?”

With occasional hiccups, she answered with difficulty.

“My name is Ewald Kitska.”

“Yes, hello. Nice to meet you My name is Elif Karossa. Please take care of me.”

Elif, who bowed his head respectfully as he sat spread out, sobbed nonstop. Even in the middle of her mind, she had everything to say, and she even made her whimper and stole her eyes.

She was ridiculously cute.

“… How many scouts are there in all?”

“About 10 people?”

Ten people It is not the number of people who will go down in search of the demon king until the main force enters, but after witnessing the fearsome female swordsman in front of him, Raebald threw the question again.

“Is there someone stronger than you among the scouts?”

“To? Hiccup! No. I can’t fight.”

‘… Are you out of your mind? I also forcibly blocked it, what are you saying?’

If this lady doesn’t fight, Usbel will bite her tongue and die. But when he really thought about the possibility that Elif wouldn’t be able to fight the best, Balt laughed and shook his head.

If there were so many talented people, the war would have ended in the first place.

“Woo-wook. Oooh. But no one is better at wielding a knife than I am.”

Ewald unknowingly let out a sigh of relief. It feels like all the anxiety is gone.

Now, if you just have to fix it quickly and go downstairs…

“Uh? Master, master?”

“… Why?”

Usbel, who was looking around at the sky and the ceiling, answered quietly.

“I can hear the singing.”
