Chapter 25

RATH 25

TL: Eevee

3. And so the story begins. (9)

Madness. Just what the heck did she do to get the emperor to acknowledge an elopement with me?

But aside from the moments when she was getting hit with the bat and metal bat I dont recall her every lying to me?

Lets check first.

If you lie, you get hit.

How do you have that cursed magic weapon!

I used it when that rascal Rood came.

I lost a comrade.

He isnt dead.

Sometimes people find more solace in death. Getting hit by that magic weapon is one of those moments. Rood would also have preferred you to finish him off cleanly with a sword if for the sake of nothing but old relationships.

Sia said with a hateful look at the metal bat.

Now, Master! Throw away that useless thing and come with me!

I refuse.

-Wow owner! Slightly touched!

Then you can bring that too

I didnt necessarily refuse just because of this.

-Ahhhhht! Return my emotions!

A life with Sia, I will have to refuse. The organizations gone under as well. I might as well aim for the farming king life I gave up in the past.

Will I simply give up like that?

Probably not.

Yes, Master. I will take you with me no matter what.

Click.

The moment she snapped her fingers, the mood changed.

To face Master, I thought for a long time. And my answer was numbers and ranged attacks.

At the same time she said that, torches started to light up the cave one, two at a time. The final count being at least a hundred.

I brought special poisons that can paralyze even an ogre with so much as a scratch. And the numbers I brought were the most I could muster. Now, Master.

Why is it that whenever my disciples come to fight me, they always bring a mob with them?

If you sleep for just a bit, once you wake up all thats left is to live happily in the home I have prepared for us.

As Sia slowly drew away with a bright smile, I could hear the sound of hundreds of arrows flying towards me.

But theres way too many? Is this a death route? She knows perfectly well that I cant block that if I dont have mana?

-Wow, prep work OP. Shes owners disciple alright! Plus she even said she had a house ready, since owner doesnt have a home right how int that a chance?

-But youd probably be melted down.

-No, no way!

This rascal still doesnt know what its done.

Sure I was the one laying out the beatings but the tool was this metal bat.

I guarantee it, if its Sia then shell do something like the movie based off the legendary novel and create a Fellowship of the Bat to throw it in Stioris Volcano that was even said to have melted an archdevil, just to get rid of this rascal from the world somehow.

No matter how much suffering and sacrifices they had to make, if its Sia then shell endure it all to melt down the metal bat.

-And so. The moment I fall is also the moment you die!

-Owner and I share the same fate! Were bonded by the strong bond of our souls!

And so that this thing and I can both survive, those arrows need to be blocked!

Not even Master could parry away all these arrows.

She said loudly from all the way over there.

Sure, normally you wouldnt be able to block these numbers. Youd just get pincushioned and die, right?

But Siaaa?

Did you realise your voice was shaking as you said that? She still has that shard of uncertainty somewhere in her heart.

Well, from an objective point of view, Sias evaluation of me is correct. To normal swordsmen with high mana, long-distance attacks are poorly effective.

Unless the opponent is a bowmaster or something that can pour in mana into arrows, normal archers have a hard time penetrating through the sword ki of a swordsman with mana. Putting mana into a sword and maintaining it takes massive amounts of effort by itself, so how much harder would it to maintain that mana in an arrow thats flying away from you?

So the role of an archer is, to just beat the crap out of ordinary soldiers, and they dont even work that well against heavy armour either.

But to me without mana, there isnt a weapon deadlier than an arrow.

And because of that, I made very thorough preparations against archers.

Block it, metal bat!

-Youre making a weak frail girl like me block that scawy thing! Owner is a bad man!

If the product of one of best dwarven clans the Black Anvil, the thing thats suspected to be tougher than a Dragon Lords scales, is weak and frail, then a normal dragon is a tutorial-level monster.

In that case the tutorial is too hard. What is that level which sounds like youd accidentally go into hell level difficulty and diligently hurt yourself to raise resistances with? (1)

What!

Hoho, why are you surprised. Theres no such thing as impossible for this metal bat with transform skills that would put a D**to to shame!(2)

The bat wavers and becomes a thin shield in my hand. Even if its this thin its still an invincible shield that tanked the hammer strikes of dwarven swordsmaster-class warriors.

And now all thats left is the finisher! The romance of men!

-Fusion!

-Uwah! O, owner and my bodies are becoming oneeeeeee!

The original purpose in the creation of this thing was as a higher rank weapon than the bat as well as to defend against my weaknesses.

The original goal was to make separate weapons and armour, but due to monetary and material shortages I couldnt do it.

Although it looks like a lump of iron on the outside, its actually the sole item in existence made of the metal that only appears in dwarven legends, Mithteil. (3)

Mithteil is only made when a mithril mine is hit by a Meteo or a similar impact to be pressurized at insane temperatures.

If I didnt sneak it out together with the princess then Id never have been able to make this.

And so, since Im making it anyway, I made it so that it could be used for attacking and defending!

-Ultimate fusion, Arcanaruan!

-Whats that childish name.

-Haang, what do you mean childish. This goddess Arcadia even gave it four letters of her name!

All that happened was the metal bat covered my body in a very thin layer like armour from the middle ages, but because of that my defenses have skyrocketed.

And if I use a regular attack in this state then there is a massive bonus damage added on top of that!

Although sure, theres no actual damage that goes through, but since it can render them unable to attack, an armour where offense and defense are one, is this not the perfect armour!

Were you prepared for this?

I dont think theres anyone aside from Master who would imagine something like that.

Seeing as the arrows just bounced off with no effect, Sia sighed heavily but drew her sword and said.

Even so, this chance I cant give it up.

With a serious expression, an overwhelming amount of mana flowed into her sword. A thicker and stronger magic power than sword ki.

-Ohhh! Izza a swordsmaster! A swordsmaster! Even the kingdom next door doesnt have more than ten of them!

-Ah, I killed a lot of them last time so theres only three left. And even then two of them only awoke at the last second.

Swordsmaster.

I did see her on the verge of breaking through at the end of training, but to think she could so perfectly master it.

As a teacher I am so happy my ass. A swordsmasters chasing after me so if Im happy about that then Im a pervert!

All units, cleared for close quarter combat. As long as you dont kill him you are free to use any means and method available!

Sword ki and sword auras began to form on everyones swords. If sword ki is pouring mana into the sword, what they call aura is adding even more energy and compressing it. To a beginner they might look like the same thing, but in reality its the difference between heaven and earth if you face it.

-But neither of those does anything to this boddyyyyy!

But it cant leave the tiniest scratch on the metal bats armour.

You, you mean that not even sword aura works on that thing?!

-Take this, Aru-chan finisher, tentacle attack!

Hiiik!

Sure even if its the metal bat, even if Ive thrown in legendary metals like they were scraps you do leave scratches if it keeps getting hit by sword aura. It might even get cut if its hit often enough. But, like Ive said before, this metal bat can change shape freely like a D**to.

That means, whether its scratched, or cut, it can be put back together! And automatically! And on top of that as a passive it reflects the enemys attacks!

And like its perverted personality, the long wavy tentacle attack that comes from the left arm is a freebie!

Ma, Master? I think something perverted came out of your arm!

Thats something the metal bat made on its own so I cant help with that.

This, this cursed magic weapon!

Kuaaaaak!

-Haang, where do you think youre going pretty unni? Wiiiin? Whats this dirty man! I wouldnt know if you were a cute boy, but since its a promised loss if I take off that mask so for the sake of my sanity Ill just abandon you!

The people that had been chasing after Sia were all defeated by the metal bats tentacle attack and were pathetically thrown aside.

Do, dont run away!

But, but how do we!

Kurk! I, I cant dodge!

-Hiya! Ayap! I dont need men! Unless youre a pretty boy then git lost! My goal is that tasty-looking unni! This unni will dote on unni a lot!

-So just whos supposed to be the unni again

To do some work as well, I formed a sword in my right hand, but the left hands tentacle defeats the enemy before they even come near. Autoattacking even as Im standing still. It is convenient but

-How much mana do you have?

-Haang, I dont worry about afterwards! Thats this Arcadias cweed!

-I do have to worry about afterwards though?

Even though the metal bat recharges by itself, it has its limits.

And what if, that mana ran out? The defenses of metal bat is done, at the same time Im also done for.

The only things left are a nice boat or imprisonment end, just those two.

-Then, for owner! Ultimate Hundred Tentacle Violator attaaaack!

Ku, kuaaak!Block it!

Kuaaak, the damage comes through even if we block iiiiiiiiiittt!

Dodge! I, Im done for

Master! Just what the heck did Master create!

What was in my field of vision was seriously around a hundred or so tentacles sprouting from my left hand and people getting violated by those left and right. And Sia who was horrified at the sight.

Sorry, I dont know what I made either. Nor do I want to know.

-Haang, what owner made is of course the beautiful goddess, Arcadia! You dont have to be embawassed! If youre embarrassed then you lose owner!

-Then I will become a loser today! After losing I will gain the freedom to be embarrassed!

-Haang, owner cant be honest.

Now the faceless masked assassins are mostly down for the count. Facing me was Sia who was glaring at me while biting down on her red lips.

Do you really hate me that much? To bring out that monstrosity!

-Monstrosity! This unnis been treating me really awfully for a while now?

Hate I dont hate you. But I dont like you either. Just a cute disciple overflowing with personality. Thats what I think of you.

-Youre the student, Im the teacher! And Im the punishment tool in between! The three of us are tied by the schoolyard string of fate! So dont hate meee, pretty unni!

Ignoring the declaration that casually pushed everyones school years into hell, Sia was shaking with her head bowed down at my words. Just what is she feeling I wonder?

Shame? Embarrassment? If she was a normal woman shed be crying having had her passionate proposal rejected

-Embarrassed because she was rejected?

-Like my disciples would ever be like that.

Her subordinates are all down, close combat is impossible. If there was anything she could do then

After I parted from Master, the contract I managed to make, great goddess of hell, Styx. Master.

-Owner, owner? Those eyes are dangerous! Really dangerous you know? Eyes are all spinny spinny? It looks like shell run at us to die together? The contracted goddess is the goddess of hell!

Master. No matter what Master says I cant give up on you. So

Yep. I think I know whats coming.

Together with me.

-According to the will of my contractor.

God. Existences that can be compared among hells archdevils among summons. Another worlds absolute beings

On you go.

-Die Kuaaaaaaaaaht?!

Kang!

-Haang, this worlds only goddess is me, the one and only Arcadia!

Eh?

Was blown away with a crisp sound.

Desummoned? A god? In one hit? Urrk.

Whether she received a critical mental hit, I hit Sias stomach while she was stunned.

Bad man

Once you wake up you will already be at your house.

..sters. Not wi

She was muttering something but she couldnt take the following strike and passed out.

-Owner, whatre you going to do? Killem all?

-I dont kill my disicples.

-Ho? Was owner a kind of person someone who cared about that?

-I am that kind of person.

-Owner is a person! I thought you were a devil at least!

Although to save this noisy childs mana I want to undo the transformation, but just in case of a final strike, there could be agents lying in ambush so I should go out like this for now.

Because just when I exit I could have the princess waiting for me with thousands of soldiers saying I was waiting for you! or the organizations boss that Ive never seen before with bloodshot eyes yelling Because of you, our thousand-year history of Howling is! could be waiting for me.

-Weiiing? Someones there!

Look here! Is there not already something on the metal bats radar!

Im already everyones enemy! So before I get hit first I will be the one to get the first strike!

-Go, batmon, tentacle attack!

-Aru aru!

Kuaaaaaht?!

Eh, wait, this sounds familiar

-Ahn, its a disciple.

Sorry.
