Being Able to Edit Skills in Another World, I Gained OP Waifus

...... Wait, Nagi. There's a group of people running down the street over there. If we keep going, we might run into them.

We left the arena and were on our way back to the inn.

On the way there, Rita unexpectedly pulled my arm.

It seems there's a group of people wandering around the town in the middle of the night. No, I can't speak for others.

I get it. I'm going to need your "presence of mind".

Yes, sir. Master.

Rita closes her eyes and snaps her beast ears up.

Aine and Cutlass are holding their mouths. I also hold my breath so as not to interrupt Rita.

After a while...

There's about 15 of us. We're just around the corner. The person in front of us is shouting at the top of the pile - I think I know that voice. It's, uh, .......

Rita looked at me with a startled look on her face.

'It's the voice of someone called Yamazoe from The Visitor,'

"...... Yamazoe.

Come to think of it, it wouldn't be surprising if he was in the vicinity.

He is employed by Count Kervis and is also involved in the Martial Arts Tournament.

I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about it.

It's a hassle to find out: .......

''Let's stay away. It's better not to get involved.

Okay. - Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.

Me, Rita, Aine and Cutlass start running in the opposite direction from Yamazoe and the others.

All the while, Rita is continuing her "presence detection".

Yamazoe and the others are slowly moving away from us. They didn't seem to find them.

"...... Nagi. The person from earlier said, 'I'll show you my ability again today'...

...... Huh?

''I'm going to make you understand today that I'm better than you guys. I'm going to show you a sword wave that no one can erase ...... control at will' -?

What the hell is he thinking?

'I heard a sword swing!　The air is ripped open and the ...... shockwave is approaching!　Nagi!

You'd better start thinking about how much trouble you're in, Yamazoe!

Across the alleyway where we are, I saw something like a light.

It's moving like a remote-controlled drone.

The light turns toward us and rushes forward.

White. White, please!

I touched the 'Armband of the Heavenly Dragon (Shiro)'.

''It's a little too late!　Shirudo!

Shiro, in his egg state, generates a translucent 'Round Shield'.

The light created by Yamazoe collides with the shield.

For a while, the light shines as if trying to break through the shield, but...

Then, poof, it disappeared.

"...... Um. "When you're about my age, you move your technique to avoid touching the building and... what?　It's gone! Because,

Yeah. I'm right here. I'm within shouting distance.

You spotted me. Yamazoe.

I hear footsteps approaching and shouting.

"It's impossible that a brave man's skills are prevented from being used.

...... I didn't mean to get involved with that guy.

Because it's so annoying.

When I met him the other day, he was making a lot of noise about winning and losing.

He would challenge me to a game with rules that only he could understand. He would decide who wins and who loses, get angry, and leave satisfied.

He's a real pain in the ass.

I'll tell Iris and Letitia what's going on with True Consciousness Sharing (Mind Linkage True). We'll break through them and go straight back to Ilgafa.

Yeah. I guess there's not much to do here anymore.

'I found out the secret of the 'martial arts tournament'. I even took precautions.

"We will not look back, but rather, we will boldly go through this place.

"Mmm!　Leave it to me. I'll put that brave man down with a single blow.

I will cooperate with you.

"White's up for it!

It was unanimous.

Leggy and Lord Death are a bit belligerent though.

Either way, we've done our business.

The Lord of Irgapha prepared a luxury tour for us. We've already had enough of that.

I've also rewritten the key item for the Martial Arts Tournament, the Demon King's Orb.

We've seen what we need to see and done what we need to do.

All that's left to do now is to go home.

I was able to talk to the saint, and I also want to see Cecil and Rafilia.

I got Lord Death out of Aine and wore it.

At the same time, Cutlass activates the 'Dragon Knight Armor'.

Rita's 'presence detection' continues.

A few people, including Yamazoe, are approaching from the front. I'm not going to be able to tell the difference.

'Nah-kun. Which way are you heading, the brave man in front or the people in the back?

Ahead. Let's head towards Yamazoe.

His skills are unpredictable.

It's better to throw a punch and get out of here than to get shot at from behind.

Rita. Give me a count.

Copy that. Ten seconds more ...... 9...... 8...... 8......

In the darkness, someone appears from the corner of the road.

As soon as we saw it, we started running.

"-What the hell!

Did they defeat Master Yamazoe's attack?

What are these people doing here?

The figure that appears is holding a sword. Is it because they are participants in the Martial Arts Competition?

I'm just a passerby, so there's no reason for me to point a weapon at you...

''Whoever neutralizes that person will be seeded for the 'martial arts competition'!　Those who run away will be stripped of their right to participate in the tournament!

Behind the figures, Yamazoe was shouting.

''I can't let someone who would block my technique go unchecked!　Capture him and prove he's weaker than me!

I don't know what that is.

I rushed at him, but I didn't hear the figures around me.

He's charging towards me with a sword in his hand. It can't be helped.

Activate!　"Juju-sui kenjutsu!

Shut up!

"...wow!

The figure that was swept away by the sword breaks his stance. There──.

Ta-da!

Bokko.

Rita's fist is dug into the depths of the shadow. And then...

Yes. It's called "clearing your memory".

Pecan.

Aine's mop pats the face of a human shadow. The opponent who is hit by the "Memory Wipe" mop is stunned and falls to the ground.

The shadows come at you from the other side, too.

Cutlass is guarding the back. The dragon knight's armor makes Cutlass the most powerful tank in the world.

"He's like a heavy-armored tank that moves around at the speed of a single wire, that knightly girl!

What about the metaphor?

But Reggie is right.

The enemy isn't able to react to an opponent who is heavily armed but moves fast.

They pay off my sword, hit me with my shield and fall to the ground. He stuns me with Aine's mop on my face as if it were a streamlined process.

It's a good thing we're in an alley. The other side can only come one at a time.

I'm in the lead and Cutlass, who is at the back of the line, fends off the enemy's attacks and hands them over to Aine and Rita. We're able to neutralize more than ten people in the blink of an eye with that flow.

'...... Nah, what the hell are these guys?

...... There are more than ten people over here!

...... the enemy is heavily armed. How can they move so quickly!

The enemy is starting to get cold feet. I think this is the time.

"Rita. Activate the getaway.

Yes, sir. Master.

At the same time as Rita activated the skill, her vision was reflected in the window of "True Consciousness Sharing, Mind Linkage True". There, under the effect of 'Brilliant Escape', the best course for escape is displayed.

''Well then, everyone depart.''

"Yes, sir." "Yes, sir." "Yes, sir.

We ran out of the alley.

"-What?　Fast!

"Can't I get my weapon out...?　They're reading our movements!

'How can you move so precisely in this darkness!

The 'martial arts tournament participants' that Yamazoe had with her are the only four left.

They've already lost the will to fight.

All they wanted was the right to seed the tournament and qualify for the tournament.

There's no need for them to go all out against us.

''Gu-nu-nyu......''

Across the street, Yamazoe growls.

He raises his greatsword to the top of the heap. The sword glows.

Yamazoe swings his sword straight down and...

...... Nagi. That was an attack on me earlier!

Sword of Light.

It's funny.

We stopped his moves earlier.

Even Yamazoe knows that the technique won't work. So...

He's trying to get a good look at us, I guess. Maybe he's using that technique to get a light source.

The moment White prevents it, my face lights up, right?

That's the idea. So we'll all form a single file line.

As I run, I strike out with my magic sword, Leggy.

The number of times I strike out is six. As an insurance policy, I ask Shiro to prepare the "Silo" as well.

And then...

Activate.　"Delayed combat...

The giant Magic Sword Reggie and Yamazoe's light collided.

And at the same time, 'Ability Contact Analysis (Skill Analyzer)' is also activated.

This skill allows you to know the abilities of the skills you come in contact with with weapons and armor.

What is the true nature of Yamazoe's light skill──?

The Controllable Photon Sword.

It is capable of launching a blade of light filled with magical power.

The blade can be controlled at will over a range of several hundred meters around the sorcerer.

The power is about three times that of an ordinary large sword strike, but when combined with the surgeon's other skill, it becomes the literal 'most powerful technique'.

─ I see.

In other words, from more than 100 meters away, it's no problem.

But what is Yamazoe's other skill?

''Its attack power is three times that of a normal great sword. Then you can counteract it with 6 strikes, Leggy.

"Mmm!　No problem!

Bump.

The blade of the gigantic demon sword Reggie's blade split Yamazoe's blade of light into two pieces and disappeared.

''Wha, what the heck?

Yamazoe is screaming.

Okay, let's run away while we can.

Let's just warn the participants of the Martial Arts Tournament for the last time.

"My Lord! "My Lord, shall we not warn them?

Okay. That's rare, Reggie.

"It's nice to have a change of pace.　Besides, Yamazoe can hear the voices of the Lord, the beastman, the maid, and my knight girl. If you shout, he might remember everyone's face. You've never shown me your face, have you?

You have a point.

There was a time when I was so caught up in my mission that I lost sight of something important. I would like to see if I can convince the participants of the tournament.

All right. All right. Leggy.

It's a rare occasion that Reggie is motivated.

I'll leave it to him.

Well, then.

A figure-sized Leggy appears on my shoulder.

She bends her chest, looks up her face--

"To all those shackled by the illusion of valor!

I raised my voice to the top of my lungs.

You are deluded!　The Martial Arts Tournament is not for determining the brave. It's for determining the victims, or demon king's army, to be destroyed by the brave!

It's great. Normal.

Leggy is telling everyone what's going on in The Martial Arts Tournament.

You've grown up ...... Leggy.

When I met you, you were just a vile magic sword .......

'Look at that brave man who was giving orders to you guys!　The one who frightens and manipulates others. Is that the brave one?　Do you guys want to be like that?

...... awesome. Leggy girl.

...... It says what Aine and her friends are trying to say.

...... The Magic Sword Legionnaire was actually quite serious, wasn't it?

Everyone is also surprised by Reggie's words.

Yamazoe, too, has stopped moving, probably because she suddenly heard the girl's voice.

Not to mention the stunned people, and the participants who have lost the will to fight.

Reggie continues.

'That's not what a true brave man is like!　You can't be a brave man who only uses others!　A man of valor is...

What is Reggie's idea of a true hero?

It's about leading others and letting their talents shine through!

「「「「 Whoa, whoa, whoa! 」」」」

Leggy said all the right things about him.

You can't bring out the cuteness and the eroticism in a girl simply by coaxing people into submission!

What?

"Wake up, men!　Don't be fooled by those self-proclaimed brave men!　People are not bound together by power, but by trust and love!　Like my master, who touches the girls at the party and lets them find a new identity and a new sense of comfort. You have no idea. You will not know that their skin has become more lustrous since they have been united to you, my Lord. It is important to be loved so much that they found their new selves by doing so, and they - what are you doing Lord!　I'm not done talking to you!　How is it that I, the true hero, bring out the girl's loveliness and sweetness, drown myself in her pleasures - stop spinning me around in my scabbard!

Straight up.

I thought I'd grown up a bit, but Leggy is still Leggy.

The participants of the martial arts tournament seem to have lost their will to fight, thanks to this.

I'm not sure if it's because they're not satisfied with the results, or if they've been drained of their venom.

...... Anyway, I'd say the Bujutsu Tournament is a dubious one.

Leggy finished his story begrudgingly.

'Take your friends home with you. You've seen the true nature of Yamazoe, the brave man. You have seen the true nature of this brave man, Yamazoe, who only gives orders to others to fight. He only makes you fight and give orders to others.

The last one was decent.

Let's see if he's grown up or if he's still an eerie magic sword.

...... We're done here.

I put a cloth over my mouth and changed my voice slightly before I said.

'If you're going to have a 'martial arts tournament', do what you want. Bye.

...... so you think you're on top of me.

Suddenly, Yamazoe opened his mouth.

''I don't know who you are, but I'm telling you that you think you're on top of me by preventing my technique and spewing unnecessary things at my subordinates!

Saying that, Yamazoe raised his sword.....

'Those who have seen my fecklessness will be gone!　"Controlled Light Sword, Controllable Photon Sword.

Yamazoe fired a blade of light.

It's not us. It's the fallen participants of the 'Martial Arts Tournament'.

"White!

"Stay up!　Shirudo!

Boshuuuuuuuuu!

The blade of light hit White's "shirudo" and disappeared.

That's a dangerous ...... What are you thinking about? I'm not going to be able to get away from you.

"Don't run away, fight me. What do you want to happen to these people?

...... I thought those were your guys in there?

I said.

In the darkness, Yamazoe let out a foolish breath.

These are the adventurers of this world. The stray visitors have already been handed over to Count Kervis, who will be performing a great ceremony by now. I'm sure a great ceremony is taking place right now.

Yeah, where?

You have no idea what you're talking about. The arena.

Yeah,

"There is only one truth. No matter what you say, the Demon King's Army exists. When you see it's real, your words will be erased.

All right. I'll take a look at it.

"I know the truth about the world. I know the truth about the world.

Okay. Bye.

Don't run away!　Fight me!

Yamazoe again raised his sword to the top of the stairs...

You fight me and win, and I'll get you out of here. I won't hurt any of my men. I'll make you a deal.

He proclaimed that with a rough breath.
