A Warrior Exiled by the Hero and His Lover

Chapter 218: The warrior sends the bastard back to hell Part 1

I discovered my mother’s purpose and understood the destiny that had been assigned to me.

I was not only fortunate to have the power. I had a duty and a responsibility to this power.

On the contrary, I feel relieved. Until now I had been searching for a path. I didn’t even know where I wanted to go and I had doubts about how to use my power.

But at last I can see the road. I’m glad I came to this place.

I could know how my mother feels, I could see my grandmother and I could know what I am. I don’t regret anything.

—I’m sorry for the hard fate that has befallen you.

—You have nothing to apologize for, Grandma.

—But—…

—There is something I want to ask you… Can I have a hug from you?

I’m trying hard to contain my embarrassment.

Neze smiled and held out both hands to me.

As soon as I jumped onto her chest, I felt a great warmth in my heart. My eyes watered as I remembered my childhood.

—You can come and see me whenever you want.

—Yes, I will.

I have no doubt that I will miss this place.

As I wiped my eyes with my arm, I smiled and pulled away from her.

—You are also welcome.

—Thank you for your help.

—See you later. Grandma Neze.

Both Kaede and Frau said goodbye. It was time to leave the ancient city.

A final showdown against Sain awaited us.

As I walked away from the place. I looked back a couple of times, seeing in the distance my grandmother who remained in the same place. 

—My lord, are you crying by any chance?

—No, I’m not crying.

—You have to be strong. After all, you are Toru Eiban Vogelsteitz.

—Don’t call me that.

I don’t want to have that title, I’m not royalty, I don’t want to be treated differently because of who I am. 

I’m just Toru… Toru, the Warrior.

***************************

As I left the ruins, I noticed that the air had changed, albeit only slightly. The smell of blood comes on the wind. 

And from time to time, the ground trembles.

—That’s strange. Sain’s already here?

—Let’s hurry.

We quickened our steps as fast as we could. 

We jumped over the ruins overhanging the lake, and countless columns of black smoke could be seen in the distance.

The roar of the beast together with falling trees, making everything a confusion. Without a doubt, the battle had begun. 

Quicken your steps to the water’s edge.

With a sprint, I kicked off the ground and took a leap of several hundred meters that brought me to dry land in the blink of an eye. 

Kaede magically levitated her body, and Frau followed behind her flying on her own wings.

I quickly called Rosuke and grabbed him by the tail, causing me to soar through the sky until I was right underneath the furious black beast that terrorized everyone in its path.

Its roars left no one indifferent. And its appearance was that of a tiger with innumerable tentacles sprouting from its back.

A concentrated discharge of magic is directed towards the tiger. It seems to be a magical attack from some army.

The tiger’s mouth opened and expelled a breath that devastated everything in its path. Trees, buildings, and even the ground itself turned bright red. 

An entire army was wiped out in seconds. It seemed much stronger than before, as if it had absorbed more experience.

—¡Sain!

—Gooooooooorrr?!

I let go of Rosuke and swooped towards the tiger while drawing my sword, cutting it in two on impact.

—Gyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh

Sain’s cry sounds as if the earth is shaking. 

Cunningly, the tiger separates into two, but instantly they rejoin as one, forming their original appearance.

—Goooorrrrr.

—Sain… I have come to kill you as I promised.

—Gooooooooooooorrrrr!!

I put myself in his field of vision, and he screamed violently as he salivated. 

It’s really a pity that I have him in this state of disrepair now.

—Mortal Kick!

A strange woman flew like a cannonball, and hit Sain with a big kick. 

Sain could not resist the impact, and went flying through the air. 

The woman lands spinning in the air and runs towards me with her hands outstretched.

—Toru!

—Ney?!

Ney jumps into my arms with great enthusiasm.

—So you’re here too?

—Toru, at last I’m with you again!

I am very relieved to see that she is still safe and sound.

Takigi and Nambala arrived to take tactical positions, and began attacking Sain as he tried to get up. 

The two guys, who had seen each other on different occasions, continued to attack Thane as he tried to get up.

Takigi threw a glass tube towards Sain, which when it broke, caused Sain to be stuck on the ground due to the sticky liquid.

The moment Sain was in trouble, Nambala took the opportunity to hit him with his axe. 

The blade pierced through the epidermis and into the flesh, causing him to sink into the ground due to the impact.

—Gooooooooorrrr

But despite the effort, it was useless, as Sain remained conscious, and angrier than ever. 

Immediately, two heads emerged from the tiger’s neck, and burned the sticky liquid with flames exhaled through its mouth, causing it to stand up again.

—Ney, we’ll have to save the warm welcome for another time. We have to take care of him first.

—Yes. I’ll get his attention, while you—….

Before Ney finished telling me his plan, three masses proceeded to separate from Sain’s body, taking sinister forms and the same jet black color that characterizes them so much. 

Shirk, Yasumo, Gweil.

Shirk is a beast that shoots with a very precise trajectory.

Yasumo can turn its body transparent and use its long tongue to trap and engulf its prey.

And the last one, Gweil, is a humanoid-looking dragon that can fly and shoot flames.  

—Three more enemies? This must be a joke…

I wonder how strong they are. Although I’m not in a situation to doubt myself now either, I must stop them at all costs.

—Rosuke, Sharkboy, Chupibi. 

I called my three domestic beasts and ordered them to take care of those eyesores. 

Since Chipibi was the one who usually thought best about strategies, she gave orders to both of them to follow. 

Then Chupimi grabbed Sharkboy by the tables and flew high into the sky, while Rosuke would take on Shirk.

Gweil is the only one left, but he unleashed an outrageous attack with his first move, which didn’t catch me off guard.

—Ney, come back!

—Toru?!

By mere reflex, I hid Ney behind me, and repelled the dragon’s breath with my sword. 

An extremely thick beam of heat is spat directly from above me, and even with my sword as a shield, my skin burns from the heat. The ground around me begins to melt, and my clothes and hair catch fire.

—Flower blizzard! 

—Gyauu?!

The attack was interrupted by Kaede’s counterattack.

Gweil broke the ice covering his body, and grunted as if nothing had happened.Meanwhile, Sain didn’t seem to move.

He must have lost a lot of energy sending those three beasts. 

Now is the time for revenge, but the beasts stand in my way and I cannot carry out my attack.

—Master, the healing position!

—Give it to Ney first.

I am an expert in blocking pain, even though I am injured, that is no impediment to me.

After my orders to Kaede, Ney received the position to heal his wounds.

—Break Hammeeeeeeer!!!!

Frau descends like a meteorite and smashes Sain with a hammer.

Her attack was so intense that it generated a shock wave.

—You piece of shit! How dare you hurt my Lord?!

—Gooooooorg!

—You are a very persistent, poop hero!

Frau repeatedly hit him with her hammer and Sain writhed in pain.

And so, Gweil’s aim shifts from us to Frau.

—Fugi!?

—Guoooooooo!

Gweil’s thick, sharp claws struck Frau. Causing her to crash to the ground at high speed and raising a cloud of smoke.

—Frau?!

Gweil again adopted a supportive position. This is not good, Frau may not be able to dodge it.

—Gyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

After a roar was heard, a large beam of extreme heat struck Gweil from an unexpected direction. 

Beams of light streaked across the sky and bounced back toward the enemy. 

A huge flying object cast a shadow on the ground. It was a majestic figure reflecting a dazzling light off its pure white body.

A humanoid dragon was spreading its wings.

It was… Panda’s return.
