□

After being summoned by Vysis, I departed with my fellow summoned Heroes.

This was to strengthen the Divine Protection the Goddess bestowed upon us.

It was a sunny day with the sun shining brightly.

During the journey, after breakfast, I had killed one Hero.

Only one.

It isn’t like I was committing a slaughter.

Of course, I held the intention to continue the journey with the remaining Heroes.

However, the other Heroes returned to Enoh, taking me with them.

Did something happen that caused problems in continuing our journey?

They treated me as if I was a criminal and handed me over to Vysis.

As I was wondering why they were treating me like that, Vysis questioned me.

[My condolences for your loss. However, rest assured, I have no intention of laying hands on you.]

“Why did you kill him?” The innkeeper’s wife tearfully asked.

Just like Vysis, she asked such a strange thing.

However, I can indeed tell she was a courageous wife.

Out of respect, I answered her question honestly.

[Because of the Sun.]

Having nothing else to do, I continued on with my lonesome journey.

Before long, I learned by hearsay that the other Heroes would soon clash with the Great Demon Emperor’s army.

They were good people.

I hope they do their best out there.

During the journey, I killed a considerable number of people in this world.

It seems she wanted my help to defeat the Great Demon Emperor.

That being the case, I don’t have any other choice.

I shall do it.

I’m a Hero after all.

Just like that, practically by myself, I defeated the Great Demon Emperor of that era.

Vysis was delighted.

[Why, this is quite the interesting specimen.]

The one thing I remember clearly———– were flames.

Blazing flames……

Was I caught in a great fire?

Or perhaps I was the victim of an arson attack.

No, maybe it was simply the moment of my cremation burned into my retina.

I——— Who…… am I?

I…… don’t remember who I am.

I don’t even know my own name.

Am I truly a deceased person who has returned from Yomi?

The fragments of memory are too scattered to make sense.

Yet———- even when my appearance changed…… There are things that remain unchanged.

I kept the Takao Sisters within my gaze.

Though they wear strange black and red masks……

From their voices and body shapes, I conjecture they are girls.

I fixed my gaze on Yomibito.

(The problem here…… is figuring out what to destroy to achieve victory.)

The wind blades generated by <Wind> surrounded Yomibito.

The wind blades were scraping the surface of their armor.

(I’m dealing that much damage…… Despite that, they’re not showing any signs of dodging or defending. They must think this level of attack is no problem…… In other words———–)

The raging wind slashes ceased.

…..Click, click……

They were repairing.

The scraped surface of the armor.

(———-Because of their regenerative ability, such an attack isn’t a problem. That armor might be more like part of their body…… It might be better to consider it their outer shell or their carapace. Itsuki must have attacked them too, but it was repaired by regeneration……)

I roughly gauged the overall strength of the armor.

With anyone else, it might have been different, but if it’s Itsuki, she should understand what I mean already.

Saying any further words isn’t necessary.

Itsuki often says she can’t understand my words well.

However, that isn’t because she’s not smart.

Her comprehension is above average, and she excels academically.

It’s just that metaphors, similes, and indirect expressions are hard for her to grasp.

Moreover, she has no trouble understanding modern Japanese terminologies, words that were used in ordinary manga.

It’s just———–

If Itsuki could understand a certain level of “complexity,” she would grow even more.

She might even surpass me.

With that expectation, I deliberately used “paraphrases” from time to time.

(I mean————)

My long sword had a crack.

If we clashed again, it would probably break.

I dropped the long sword.

The long sword I had been using in this world fell to the floor with a clatter.

(After making the first hole in that outer shell———- immediately follow up with a consecutive high-powered attack to create a second hole, without giving them time to regenerate. This is the attack plan I instructed Itsuki earlier……)

Given their regenerative ability, a hit-and-run strategy could put us at a disadvantage.

Thus, we need to stack high-powered attacks in quick succession———- delivering a decisive blow to the interior of their armor.

(It’s simple, but this is our immediate goal……)

However, it won’t be easy to create two holes in quick succession.

How effectively can we divert Yomibito’s attention from our “decisive blow?”

(If they have thinking ability…… then I can catch them off guard……)

The most effective attack is one they don’t expect.

If Yomibito has information on <Gungnir> and <End>, it means they’re bound by existing information.

So if we have something they haven’t seen before———- that could be the opening we need.

(Itsuki……)

I glance over.

Itsuki looks at me.

While moving, I signal with two fingers pointing downward.

My twin doesn’t need to nod, Itsuki acknowledges with her eyes.

(As expected———-)

She really is the twin sister I’m proud of.

First……

[ <Wind> ]

Let’s create an opening to get closer.

Using <Wind>, I generate ice in the air and cause it to explode.
