Chapter 78
Happy Monday!
Here is the chapter, enjoy.
ED: Ignite
When I saw a huge pool of Amelias blood on the ground, I thought about how fatal the wound mustve been.
Unable to stop thinking about it, there was a distinct sound of something inside me breaking.
I must not let myself drown in rage. I have to prevent myself from going on a rampage.
At the moment, my mind was being bombarded with several emotions. I was mad at myself for being incapable of protecting Amelia; I felt sadness over losing Amelia and I felt helpless over my inability to do anything about it.
Just as I regained some of my composure, monsters appeared, and once again I was in disarray.
I felt like my last pillar of support had crumbled.
Shadow Magic.
My self-control was starting to dwindle, and I began to feel an increasing urge to vent my anger on something.
Perhaps this is why the shadows coming out of my body seemed more rampant than usual.
Honestly speaking, I couldnt control it.
Master, -dono, I will now, go on a rampage. When its over, stop, me.
While I was focused on the shadow magic, Yoru had turned into a Kerberos before I knew it.
It was the same as when we were in the dungeon, there was nothing but legendary monsters that even I knew.
Having turned into Kerberos, Yoru rushed out after saying that.
Blood was gushing out from the throat of the monster that Yoru had pounced on and had pooled on the ground.
The three heads bit at different monsters and in a blink of an eye, the corpses of the monsters piled up into a mountain.
ok, take over complete.
Of course, I wasnt just looking on like a spectator.
I was calming the shadow magic that was projecting the desire that I had within me to rampage, and tried to turn that power into my own.
The power of the shadow magic was still unknown, and even I did not know what its limit was.
To me, its power was too strong, but strangely, I did not let go.
With the shadow magic, I created a foothold, and jumped over to where Yoru was.
The Kerberos Yoru had drool dripping from his mouth, and seemed to have lost all reason.
He was moving entirely according to his destructive impulses.
I expressed my gratitude to Yoru and joined the battle.
Since he wouldnt understand me no matter what I said right now, I was thinking that I needed to tell him again afterwards as I accurately stabbed the vitals of the monsters with the dagger that was imbued with shadow magic.
The rest of the shadows moved as they liked, and ate the surrounding monsters.
Though, saying that they ate them might be putting it too lightly, as they were being swallowed whole by the shadows.
ah, oi, Yoru!
Before I realized it, Yoru had already gone really far away.
Though I said that, we could still see each other, but even so, it was too far away for me to go help.
I was thinking that the monsters have been moving according to someones commands since a while ago, but perhaps they were trying to separate us.
demons, huh.
It was, the only race capable of using monsters.
The pitiful race that was driven off to Volcano which had the harshest environment within the continent and were hated by the other races because of their power.
There was only one reason why they were moving, and that was because the demon king had started to move.
I had absolutely no idea what was going on in the mind of Retices king and the others, but the twenty-eight of us who were summoned from another world, that didnt seem like it was due to bad timing.
Aulum Trace.
I uttered that name, and clenched my fist.
The shadows were wiggling around.
I wont forgive you.
This is sudden, but in that world, I had never fallen in love or anything like that.
Of course, my mother and younger sister were important to me.
However, when it came to other girls, they were all afraid of me.
There was absolutely no interaction at all and I did not have a beautiful childhood friend.
Or perhaps I should say, I did not have any childhood friends.
Furthermore, I was too busy with part-time jobs so I didnt have time for things like love.
But then I came to this world, met Amelia, and fell in love with her.
Shes my first love, and whether shes a princess or not wouldnt change my feelings in the slightest.
I wont let her die, but even if Amelia died, I wouldnt love anyone other than Amelia.
I wanted to treasure her, and protect her.
When she sees the awkward parts of me, I feel more depressed than if someone else saw them.
A person this special to me was now out of my reach.
I didnt know where she was.
What if she was experiencing tremendous pain?
She might be calling for help right now.
And yet, I wasnt able to go to her.
No matter how many monsters I killed, I wouldnt be able to get to Amelia.
Aaaaaaaah!!!!
When the reality of the situation hit me, I couldnt control my emotions any longer.
The dark sky grew darker still, and the shadows continued to grow despite exceeding their limit.
Shadow Magic, Shadow Hell.
The monsters slowly sank into the darkened ground.
The monsters could not break free from the shadows that were just like the antlion pits.
TN: antlions, also known as doodlebugs, are insects and their larvae are known for digging holes to trap ants and other prey. The kanji (antlion pit) literally translates to ant hell.
When all the monsters sank into the shadows, my magic had nearly been depleted.
When all the shadows returned to me, the dark sky returned to the original blue.
When I realized this, I felt my strength leave my body, and I sank onto the ground.
Master-dono!!
For some reason, Yoru had returned to his original large black cat form and supported me, his body almost touching the ground.
Master-donos shadow magicno, the type of shadow magic that I saw just now seemed to have the power to dispel magic. My transformation as well, came undone as soon as I came in contact with Master-donos shadow magic.
Supporting me, Yoru answered my doubts.
As expected of my partner.
Putting that aside! Why did you do something so rash!! You dont really need to kill them all!
When he thought about this, Yoru sharply glared at me and yelled.
Because Yorus voice was one that resounded in my head from the start, coupled that with the dizziness from magic depletion, I was extremely light-headed.
sorry, Yoru. Ill listen, to your preaching later. Im going to sleep.
O, oi, Master-dono!, ignoring Yoru who shouted that, I closed my eyes.
As expected, this was my limit.
Yoru was right, I overdid it.
It was unusual for me to not be able to control my emotions.
Even now, if I still had some magic left, I wouldve destroyed the monster house over there that had miraculously escaped annihilation.
Even though I had a rule of not venting out my anger because of how tiring it is.
Since meeting Amelia, Ive changed in many ways.
However, it was mysterious, compared to the time in the other world where I did not even have an iota of interest in anyone other than myself, I was happy that I could express my emotions like this.
I will, rescue Amelia, without fail.
Muttering that, I lost consciousness.
Masters magic had exceeded the limit. Acceptable value had been drastically surpassed. As Masters life will be in danger if this continues, Shadow Magic will be forcibly activated. Mode, Recovery. Collecting the necessary amount from the magic power preserved by the shadow magic. recovery complete. Shadow magic, activation suspended.
A machine-like voice leaked out from the mouth of Akira who had lost consciousness, and after shining for a little while, the uninjured Akira was soundly sleeping.
Akiras pale complexion due to magic depletion had returned to normal as well.
That was what had appeared before Akira had met Amelia and Yoru when he received life-threatening injuries from his battle with the Chimera.
Confirming that his master was not only safe, but had completely recovered, Yorus hastened steps slowed.
Master-dono.
