Chapter 4
Various people surround the Sword Saint in the center of the square .
The number would exceed more than 100 .
Yogiri and others were at the outer edge of the crowd .
The surroundings were in a frenzy .
But, there was none who seemed to move .
There are people who seem to be watching, and there are also people who think the Sword Saint’s words will continue .
“A bit better? If I kill all the guys here, I can automatically become a Sword Saint?” (???)
Among the stressful air, a confident voice was issued .
The voice of a black man who is just before Yogiri and others .
Black shirt, black pants, and black cloak .
A black sheath is carried on his back, and the handle is black .
“No comment . But, if you dare say it, if this is the kind of interview that you see personality, you are disqualified . ” (Sword Saint)
“What!?” (Black Man)
It was an unexpected reply, as the black man hardened .
“You know that . Don’t ask anything . Think carefully before you listen . There is a possibility of disqualification just by listening . ” (Sword Saint)
The Sword Saint seemed to be shocked .
And those who heard those words became increasingly cautious .
“Well, I wonder if he’s unexpectantly kind?” (Tomochika)
Tomochika is asking .
But Yogiri didn’t think so .
“A kind person, he wouldn’t say to kill each other . Hey, a little nice?” (Yogiri)
Yogiri raised his hand and called the Sword Saint .
The surrounding lines of sight all focused onto Yogiri at once .
“What is it . Didn’t you hear the story?” (Sword Saint)
The Sword Saint was further amazed .
“I can be disqualified or whatever . We just happened to pass by chance, and I don’t mind killing you, so can we go home?” (Yogiri)
“Wh-what’s up!” (Dragon Loli)
Before the Sword Saint, the dragon girl who was on the side was surprised .
“Haven’t I met the Sword Saint now? Please show me the exit quickly . So, how about it?” (Yogiri)
Yogiri responded to the girl and pressed the Sword Saint for an answer .
“Ho? Could you come to such a place and just happen? It seems not to be an atmosphere that you realized you are afraid, but if you forgive me it will be ruined……well then, let’s do this . If anyone escapes from this square, all of you are disqualified . Consider the situation based on that . ” (Sword Saint)
“It turned out to be a bit bothersome . ” (Yogiri)
Apparently it now seems that Yogiri and others had been incorporated as part of the exam .
“Hey, you did it . I guess the Sword Saint was cut and stretched, it was probably nothing¹ . I guess you do not want to see a bunch of you getting fucked up . Let’s break the time as well? It’s sufficient from now . Everyone will be disqualified if there isn’t less then half after a while . ” (Sword Saint)
Those words triggered the situation .
The man who was in black drew the sword on his back .
Nobody was careful about it .
Just the sword of the man was superb .
The man next to us was slashing in a hurry without the technique to do it .
The sword that came in from the left shoulder passes through to the right side of the arm .
Whether there was power behind the blow or not, the slain man split into two and blew away gently .
And a part of the man fell short of Tomochika .
“Oops . ” (Tomochika)
Tomochika stepped down once, avoiding the body of the rolling man .
『Your lord has gotten used to this place . 』(Mokomoko)
The ghost Mokomoko said as if impressed .
“I can’t keep saying ‘Kya!’ at this level now……” (Tomochika)
While saying such a thing, the angry roar began to echo around . Each and everyone started fighting .
“Ahh!” (Yogiri)
“What’s wrong?” (Tomochika)
When Yogiri raised a surprised voice, Tomochika asked him .
“No, I think the sword of that person is black until the blade . ” (Yogiri)
“Oh, it’s true, it’s black so far……I don’t care!” (Tomochika)
“But, what’s wrong? It’s easy to escape . ” (Yogiri)
In that case, there will be something to try to prevent it .
As soon as she tried to say it, it became reality .
Was it thought that it was easy to give out, or was it supposed to escape first .
Some of them pointed their swords to Yogiri .
Then, let’s kill .
Almost at the same time Yogiri decided so, the swordsmen who wore armor of white-silver emerged like a fire at Yogiri .
Although it is full plate armor, there isn’t much sense of profoundness, it was like a tailored suit .
Each part seems to be made quite thin and smart, and it may be one reason that makes you think that you aren’t wearing a helmet .
“Please be relieved . Let me defend you!²” (Silver Swordsman)
The swordsman turns a refreshing smile at Yogiri, then turns straight forward .
“You also do stupid things . I don’t know the intention of Sword Saint-sama at all! Sword Saint-sama will not just allow you to kill people indiscriminately! Whether you can take appropriate action as a swordsman, that’s the exam!” (Swordsman)
“There are some places where it seems to be inflexible, but it’s a decent person……I won’t believe it so easily!” (Tomochika)
Considering what he has done so far, it’s doubtful whether this person is decent .
It was unavoidable for Tomochika to think so .
『I’m pretty sure . As for the purpose of aiming of being a Sword Saint and gathering those who are skilled people here, this man pulled out one head . 』(Mokomoko)
The Silver Swordsmen use lightweight swords and shields to treat several of them simultaneously .
The policy in this place seemed careless, and the swordsmen showed enough ability to pull it down even after getting down .
But no matter how strong this guy is, it’s a swordsman to the last .
From a far distance, we can’t cope with those who aimed at Yogiri and others with magic or missiles .
At the moment when he felt clear killing intent, Yogiri activated his power .
About 10 people fell at the same time .
“Eh? What on earth is this?” (Silver Swordsman)
The Silver Swordsman stopped the battle’s hand for a moment at the mysterious event .
“That’s it, uh–” (Tomochika)
“I see, it’s the power of Sword Saint-sama! Sword Saint-sama didn’t have a sword, and it didn’t look like he was moving at all, but for Sword Saint-sama there is no difficulty for such a degree! That’s why the bad guys were defeated!” (Silver Swordsman)
Tomochika tried to fake it somehow, but it seemed not necessary .
And, for the assailant who was in front of the swordsman’s ability and mysterious death, he changed his mind as easily as possible .
“Hmm . For the time being it will be safe . It happened to have passed through . I think that it’s a disaster, but the test of the Sword Saint-sama is also important . Do you wish for me to not associate for a while longer?” (Silver Swordsman)
If anyone escaped they would be disqualified, so they probably stabbed a nail .
Yogiri didn’t know about swordsmen, but he was hesitant to break up .
“All right . I will see the situation for a while . ” (Yogiri)
“Please understand and be saved . We do our best to prevent harm, so we are concerned about that point . ” (Silver Swordsman)
For the time being, he agreed to keep on looking at it .
For now there isn’t anything aiming at Yogiri and others, and the surroundings seem to be calm, but a weak voice is heard there .
“…… . U~u……help me……” (???)
Yogiri and others turned their eyes to the source of the voice .
It was the first man to be slain .
Because he was cut obliquely, he is rolling on the ground with only a head and a right hand .
It is mysterious for him to be alive .
“This is……unfortunately . ” (Silver Swordsman)
The Silver Swordsmen shake their heads .
He guessed it was judged that there was no way to lend a hand .
Yogiri also agreed .
“No, that, don’t give up so easily……that, that girl there . Come over here and help me!” (Man)
The man was desperately trying to shout, despite all his last power .
『Hmm . You can speak well in the state that the lungs work extremely hard . 』(Mokomoko)
“Well . What do you think I should do?” (Tomochika)
“I don’t feel like killing him, so I don’t think that it’s something to plan . ” (Yogiri)
“Oh, is that so? Well if you take care of……” (Tomochika)
Tomochika approached the fallen man .
“Is that okay? You can do it if you hold my hand . ” (Tomochika)
“……that, it’s fallen there, pick up the rainbow-colored stone……” (Man)
A rainbow-colored stone was scattered around .
The man’s possessions seemed to have gotten dumped when he was slashed .
Tomochika picked up the rainbow-colored stone .
“What is this?” (Tomochika)
“That is……apologize stone……” (Man)
“Apologize? So what are you going to do?” (Tomochika)
“……please let me grab onto it with my right hand . ” (Man)
Tomochika did what he said .
Then, the man’s right hand started shining .
And, in a moment the man had revived . ³
Even though he didn’t have a quarter of his whole body, he was in a state of whole-body satisfaction . ⁴
Looking at his whole body in this way, he was a man with a tight body .
“What?” (Tomochika)
“Well, I was saved! I had thought it was no good!” (Man)
The man’s body was back to the condition before it was cut .
Even his clothes are restored, not a single scar .
Yogiri looked around, but he couldn’t find the left side of the body .
It seems that it restored to the same as it was originally .
“This is it . This is an item called Star Crystal in which we apologize . It’s a useful thing that can be used variously, such as repairing major injuries and turning gacha⁵ . ” (Man)
“Is it soshage⁶!? Who, what, what do you apologize for!?” (Tomochika)
“Stop it!” (Sword Saint)
When Tomochika was confused, the Sword Saint scoffed .
Those in the square stopped moving at once .
“We have decreased many . Well, then I will change the location . Follow me . ” (Sword Saint)
As he was saying so, the Sword Saint went out of the square .
After that, a mountain of dead corpses is left .
It was about 30% that survived .
“……You were saying what actions are appropriate for the Sword Saint, but after all, now I just feel like he wanted to reduce people……” (Tomochika)
“No, I guess this is a deep thought for Sword Saint-sama . He may have immense ideas that are unfathomable for us ordinary people . ” (Silver Swordsman)
The Silver Swordsman didn’t shake even with the question of Tomochika .
“First-stage exam? It seemed like it ended, so we don’t need to follow, right? Please guide me to the exit . ” (Yogiri)
“No, that, it is a bit of a thing to return you in this situation……” (Dragon Loli)
The dragon girl’s way of speaking was bad .
It seems that she was judging that it would be problematic to return the candidate without permission .
“Understood . Talk to the Sword Saint for the time being, I hope to get out to a good extent, don’t you?” (Yogiri)
Yogiri is getting a bit awkward, but it is difficult to pass through this canyon without a guide .
Yogiri hung up to join until he could leave with her .
