Chapter 137: Complete Defeat (1)

"They are my subordinates. Livy and Koito are holding them down. Win or lose, they cannot come to your rescue."

"...Ha?"

Livy Ido and Koito Theus, subordinates...?

I do not understand the meaning. I cannot imagine what happened how. In the original you lot were like dogs and monkeys...!

If Gain died and they are cooperating, that much I can still understand.

But why Alter at this point has expanded his force enough to command the close aides. I did not get it at all.

There might have been some sign, and there might also be something like in the original if Alter had done this.

But I could not read that kind of sign, and I who played the original for nuki purposes do not deeply understand the story.

"...I do not get it. With that kind of state how did you get ahead of me that day?"

Alter stared at my flustered figure as if saying it is truly incomprehensible.

Probably he had assumed multiple existences for what I am.

Did I slip a spy into the Remora side?

Was it purely a result of losing in tactics and strategy?

Or did I sense this side’s movements with wild intuition?

But I am none of those.

An ordinary person who could intervene precisely because I had original knowledge. Precisely because of that, at this timing when that knowledge is completely useless the true metal came out.

Alter understood, probably.

That Atel Octo is just an ordinary person.

That I do not have connections to send a spy, that I am not a man who can surpass him in strategy, that my intuition is not that sharp.

"It is a letdown. But even so the fact that you have saved the Sacred does not change."

Therefore die, his pupils speak.

That I cannot help being frightened of.

As I thought I should not have intervened that day. I start to think that kind of thing and bite my teeth with all my strength.

However much of an idiot I am, however much of a coward I am, that alone I must not think...!

Therefore do not give up, get desperate, wring out spirit.

If you get serious, if you work hard everything goes well is a brain-dead fantasy. But even so, if I give up and stop my feet I die, so I have no choice but to bet on that.

"I also. Have pride! If you are coming come, Alter Native...!"

I ready tentacles and bark.

I cannot think I can win, but at least I will make an opening to withdraw.

"No, the one who defeats you is not me. Sora, it is your turn. Toy with him as you like."

"I was waiting!"

I will do it.

The instant I thought that, it appeared from cover.

It is a male student wearing a school uniform. He winds up a metal bat and closes on this side at inhuman speed, yet with movements quite dull even compared to Remora combatants, and slams the metal bat onto the top of my head.

Gurari, my stance collapses.

"Gu...!?"

The voice that leaked is from astonishment more than pain.

This kind of thing is not much damage. But in the first place that a mere human’s attack is becoming damage, that itself was abnormal.

However much a Tentacle Monster Villain is not suited to combat, that is only talk when compared to original game units.

For Earth’s ordinary people even combatants who can finally fight Sacred in a group of ten are a sufficient threat, so I who possess a Monster Villain body above that should not take damage from Earth’s ordinary people.

But the top of my head that was hit is certainly appealing pain. My flesh is screaming that it took damage.

"I have hated it from before. Every time, every time, right when a good woman is about to be humiliated...!"

He leaks a vulgar laugh and winds up the metal bat again, the male student. From that body a thin darkness-colored aura overflows.

Enchant...!

A skill Alter also used in the original. Magic that strengthens ally units’ stats.

On the first loop there was no chance to use it, but during loop play I remember actively using it to protect low-spec Monster Villains for collecting ero scenes.

"Don’t screw around, me, me, let me hit him!"

"Chi, i...!"

At a voice that rang while I was thinking and footsteps stepping in, I tongue-click and backstep. Gou, an iron pipe passes through the place my head was until just now and hits the asphalt directly. The asphalt cracks, the iron pipe warps.

"Because of you. Because of you, because of you! My school life is a mess! Don’t screw around, a disgusting monster putting on champion-of-justice airs!"

That guy.

At the Holy Water Monster Villain uproar, the student who was threatening the middle schooler who was about to become a Monster Villain.

With bloodshot eyes he directs a gaze filled with killing intent at me. Kill, kill, kill, I will absolutely kill you.

"Hahaha! If you only panic you will not hit, pee maniac."

"Aaa!? How many times have I said! That kind of thing is just pocket-money earning, who gets excited by piss I will kill you!"

"Either is fine, whether a pervert or not, being a lame guy who got found out, caught, and suspended does not change."

"Enough piss talk, let’s quickly beat him to death. I am also pissed, because of these guys our hangout got crushed."

One after another.

Yes, one after another they gather.

That number, about fifteen people.

Holding metal bats and iron pipes, fragments of block walls and such, they start surrounding me.

Putting on vulgar smiles, seeping killing intent, sneering looking truly happy.

From those guys’ bodies uniformly a thin aura of darkness overflows. Alter’s enchant is applied.

What is this.

If these were ordinary students it would be a situation of kneeling and holding out wallets.

But my flesh is a Monster Villain’s. Even if you enchant Earth’s ordinary people with no power, you cannot defeat a Tentacle Monster Villain, right?

Frankly just swinging tentacles roughly I could easily defeat them. I am not conceited from original game knowledge, even surrounded like this I cannot hold a sense of crisis at all.

Are they not hopeless small fry. I start to think that and immediately tighten my mind.

Stop thinking convenient for me. In the first place if it is only killing me there is no need to recruit these guys on Earth, just setting one of Gain’s beasts on me is enough. That degree of thing original protagonist Alter cannot possibly not notice.
