ユウさんとマリアさんのじゃれ合いを眺めていると遅れて先ほどの戦闘結果が通知されましたね。............スキルは名前の通りとして、気になるのは称号の効果ですね。ただの記念でなんの効果のない称号もありますが名前からしてその可能性は低いでしょうし確認しましょう。
殺戮加速: 短時間での大量殺戮を繰り返した者の証。一度の戦闘で殺人を繰り返す度にAGI上昇《最大75%》硬直軽減《中》ノックバック耐性《中》人類種に対する与ダメージ上昇《中》
人類平等・悪: 老若男女や善悪など関係なく無慈悲に殺戮を繰り返した者の証。人類種に対する与ダメージ上昇《大》カルマ値《善》の敵への与ダメージ上昇《大》全陣営への与ダメージ上昇《中》カルマ値《善》の敵からの被ダメージ上昇《大》全陣営からの被ダメージ上昇《中》
............うーん、そんなつもりは無いんですけど、ますます人類の敵って感じの称号ですね? とくにカルマ値が《善》寄りだったり、秩序の陣営とは知らないうちに明確に敵対してる感じですかね? 隠密や隠蔽などのスキルを発動していないとNPCたちがすごい表情しますし............。
5万ポイントもした『静謐の小太刀』がすごく強かったですし、実験に新しく『操糸』スキルと『二刀流』スキル、『仕込み』スキルを合計8000ポイントで習得し、鋼糸というジャンルの武器である『暗黒陰糸』を3万ポイントで入手、こちらを副武器や罠に使いましたが予想以上に良い仕事をしてくれました。
「山田さんたちも新しい武器や防具はお気に召したようですね」
「はい、すみませんでした......」
「おや、終わりましたか?」
中々に愉快な方なんですけどね? ユウさんとも仲が良いみたいですし、しばらく様子を見ましょう。
「おや、なにやら人集りができてますね?」
「えぇい! 道を空けぬか!!」
「知らんけど結構な規模の軍隊だな」
「おのれぇ! 渡り人と言えども容赦はせぬぞ!?」
「なぁ、怒ってるし退いた方がよくね?」
「つっても後ろがつっかえてるし......」
なるほど、おそらく軍隊が行進していたためにプレイヤーが興味を惹き付けられ集まり、それによって進軍が停止、さらに人が集まる結果になっていたようですね。さらにはこのゲームの渡り人、つまりプレイヤーは神々が呼び寄せたという設定だったはずです、それに対して容赦しないとまで居丈高に怒鳴るということはそれなりの身分の方が同行してそうですね。
「お偉いさんでもいるのかな?」
「うーん、多分いるんじゃないかな? 少なくとも伯爵以上じゃない?」
「この軍の総司令官は王太子殿下であられるぞ!?」
「マジかよ!」
「え、王太子?」
「やっぱこれイベントだって!!」
「イベントはこの前あったし、もしかしてワールドクエストかもよ?」
「なっ!? 貴様らなぜ先ほどよりも寄ってくる!!?」
「......NPC困惑してるじゃん」
「仕方ないね、だってゲームだもの......」
「NPC自体はゲームだっていう意識が皆無だから混乱するか......」
「......とりあえず殺りますか」
「え、ちょっと一条さん?」
離れたこの距離から先頭で騒いでいたおじさまを鉄片を投擲して頭を貫きましょう。
「渡り人たちよ、これが狙いか!?」
「なに、イベントが進んだの?」
騒ぎが大きくなり混乱しだしたところで集団のド真ん中に爆薬を複数投げ込み、さらに混乱を煽るとともに煙で視界を悪くさせ駆けます。
「あ、ちょっとレーナさん!」
「えぇ? 一条さんっていつもこんな感じなの?」
邪魔なプレイヤーの首を駆け抜けざまに掻き切り、首を落とし、武器を奪っては中央付近へと投げ込み、爆薬をばら撒く。
「固まれ! 殿下を何者かからお護りしろ!」
「重装歩兵、前へ!」
......さすが軍隊ですね、混乱してもなお対応が早く、優先順位もわかっているようです。即座に前に出てくる重装歩兵へ向けてプレイヤー製の人間爆弾を複数投げつけ釘付けにしましょう。
「何が起きてる?!」
「あれ、あいつジェノサイダーじゃね?!」
「マジかよ、巻き込まれるぞ!」
プレイヤーたちが私に気づき始めたところで罠を起動します。駆け抜けながら張り巡らせていた鋼糸を引っ張り一気にプレイヤー達をバラバラにしながら一本の太い槍のような形状に纏めます。
「ま、魔術大隊は結界を張れぇ!」
「重装歩兵は中央へ戻り固まれ!」
「弓兵! 矢を射掛けろ!」
「......はい」
「軍に喧嘩売るとは......狂人め!」
即座に道を塞ぐ重装歩兵の大盾を足場に跳躍、爆散型の火薬玉をばら撒きながら兵士の頭を跳んでいきます。
味方への誤射を恐れて矢の雨が止まりましたのでさらに進みやすくなりましたね、そのまま重装歩兵のいた場所を抜け着地し、その背後に陣取っていた槍兵を薙ぎ倒していきましょう。
「こいつ速いっ!?」
「囲め!」
鋼糸で槍兵の一人の足を巻き取り、それを振り回すことで牽制しながら鉄片の投擲で喉や目を貫いて数を減らし、突き込んでくる槍を掴みながら兵士の腕を切り落として奪い取り、棒高跳びの要領で包囲を脱し、空中にて逃げようとしている一際派手な馬車の車輪を火薬玉の投擲で破壊します。
すぐさま反転してきた護衛であろう騎兵の馬を毒針で貫き、爆薬で道を塞いで時間を稼ぎ、馬車の上へと着地します。
《カルマ値が大幅に下降しました》
「......武器を捨て、投降しなさい」
「貴様ァ!? 土足で登っていい場所ではないぞ!!」
「降りよ!」
............まぁ、無理ですよねぇ、一応言ってみただけです。私はため息を吐きながらある物を取り出します。
こちらを親の仇でも見るような憤怒の形相で周りを兵士たちが取り囲みますがジリジリと距離を詰めるだけで手を出してきません。
「......よい、武器を下げよ」
見た目は......アレクセイ騎士団長と同じくらいですかね、20代後半くらいです。こちらを油断なく見据えながら馬車へと手招きします。
「殿下、危険ですぞ!?」
「いいんだよ、おそらく彼女だから」
「まさかっ!?」
<Your Level has increased>
<You earned Skill Points>
<Your Karma has dropped>
<You acquired new interpersonal combat skills>
<You acquired new martial arts skills>
<You acquired new dark arts skills>
<The level of existing skills has increased>
<New title: Carnage Tyrant>
<New title: Equally Evil Against All Of Humanity>
<The level of your servants has risen>
As I watched Yuu and Maria's banter, I was notified of the results of the last battle. I ended up getting some new titles, so I suppose I should check them out in case they give special bonuses.
Carnage Tyrant: Proof that one has repeatedly caused mass slaughter in a short period of time. AGI increases with each murder over a single battle <Caps at +75%>; Rigidity Reduction: <Medium>; Knockback Resistance: <Medium>; Damage dealt to humans: <Medium>
Equally Evil Against All Of Humanity: Proof that one has repeatedly and mercilessly murdered others regardless of their age, gender, or karma. Increased damage dealt to humans: <Large>; Increased damage dealt against enemies with <Good> Karma: <Large>; Increased damage dealt: <Medium>; Increased damage received from enemies with <Good> Karma: <Large>; Increased damage received from enemies: <Medium>
... I didn't have any intention of pushing things in this direction, but my titles make me feel more and more like an enemy of mankind. In particular, the constant hostility towards people with <Good> Karma makes it a bit bothersome to interact with NPCs, as they have troubling reactions if I don't use skills like Stealth and Concealment.
In any case, the event rewards were quite helpful. The Tranquil Kodachi that I got for 50,000 points is pretty strong. With another 8000 points I also got the <Thread Manipulation>, <Dual Wield> and <Preparation> skills, and when paired together with the Darkness Thread weapon, that I bought for 30000 points, ended up being quite useful.
"You liked the new weapons, didn't you, Yamada?" I asked to the monster that possessed my weapons, who made some happy noises in return.
"Yes! sorry!" Maria said.
"Oh, you done already?" Yuu asked.
"I-I'm saved..." Maria said... She seems a bit funny, and she is on good terms with Yuu, so it should be alright to travel together for now.
"Oh? Some people are gathering over there." Yuu pointed out.
"Clear out the road!" A soldier shouted.
"No clue, but that's definitely a large military group for sure." Another player commented.
"Good grief, can't you migrants stop causing such a ruckus!?" A soldier yelled.
"He's getting angry... Maybe we should step back?" A player said.
"Even if you say that, I can't move backwards with this many people behind me..." Another player replied.
Seems like the players saw the army marching and ended up gathering around them, which stopped the march and attracted even more attention, which made things even more crowded... And since the game's setting says that the migrants were called here by the gods, the army can't simply force them out of the way without a good reason... This looks like a good opportunity.
"Is there an important person in the midst of that group?" Maria asked.
"I think so. Probably a count at the very least." Yuu replied... Their hypothesis seem likely.
"Make way, for the commander of this battalion, is his highness, the crown prince!" A soldier shouted.
"Seriously!?" A player replied.
"The crown prince!?" Another said.
"So this is an event after all!" One exclaimed.
"There was an event just the other day, so this is probably a world quest." Another player commented.
"What!? Why are you coming even closer than before!?" The soldier was troubled by the players' reactions... There shouldn't be any incident that would bring the crown prince all the way over here though, even if there was the recent coup, there should be another commander capable of handling this...
"The NPCs are confused." Maria commented.
"Well, that can't be helped, the players don't pretend that this is not a game after all." Yuu replied.
"I guess it can't be helped that they get confused by this kind of reaction when the NPCs themselves aren't aware that they're game characters..." Maria said.
"... Started with what?" Yuu asked.
"Wait, miss Ichijouji!" Maria said.
For now, I threw an iron scrap at the head of the soldier who had been shouting for a while, instantly killing him.
"Migrants, is that your aim!?" The captain shouted towards the disorganized players.
"What happened to the event?" Another said.
Making use of the confusion, I threw many explosive at the midst of everyone, increasing the chaos and worsening the visibility within the area.
"W-wait, Rena!" Yuu shouted.
"I-is miss Ichijouji always like this?" Asked Maria.
I ran through the crowd, beheaded a player, stole his weapon and threw it forward with a bunch of explosives tied up in it.
"Protect his highness!" A soldier shouted.
"Infantry, forward!" Another yelled.
As expected of the army, even within this confusion, they still respond quickly while being well-aware of what their priorities should be. Not that it matters much though, as I threw multiple players as living bombs towards the infantry that was approaching me.
"What's happening!?" Another yelled.
"It's the Genocider!" A player exclaimed.
"Seriously!? We're doomed!" Another said.
As the players started to realize what was happening, I coated the Darkness Thread with poison and shaped it into a form similar to a spear, before throwing it at a mass of players. Many were able to survive due to high defense or evasion, but the numbing poison should incapacitate them for the time being.
"Magical Squad, make a barrier!" One soldier shouted.
"Infantry, regroup and enter defensive formation!" Another ordered.
"Archers, shoot!" A soldier yelled.
"... Okay." Maria said.
"To fight against the army... She's mad!" A fourth exclaimed.
Using the infantry's shields as a foothold, I jumped to the middle of their groups and then started walking on soldier heads while leaving explosives behind.
"Archers, stop!" A soldier ordered. The rain of arrows could not be maintained due to the risk of friendly fire, so I could now just move through the rest of the infantry without many worries.
"She's fast!" A soldier exclaimed.
"Encroach!" Another ordered.
I used the thread to tie the leg of a spearman and the pulled it to make him lose balance and get in the way of their formation. Then I threw iron scraps at the eyes and throats of the temporarily disorganized soldiers. Following that I grabbed a spear that was thrust against me and cut of the arm of the soldier who was wielding it. Immediately after, I jumped high in the air and threw some explosives at the wheels of a fancy carriage that was trying to escape amidst the confusion.
Then, used poison needles to the kill the cavalry horses, who were the next method of escape after the carriage's wheels were destroyed. Blocked the path to me with some explosives to buy time, then landed on top of the carriage.
<Your Karma has dropped significantly>
"Drop your weapons and surrender." I told them.
"How dare you!? Just where do you think you're standing at!?" A soldier shouted.
"Get out of there!" Another yelled.
I sighed. To think I even told them to surrender... Guess I'll need to show it to them then.
"You little..." A soldier said. They were slowly encroaching on the carriage, but they couldn't get much closer due to the current circumstances.
"... It's alright, lower your weapons." The crown prince said while getting off the carriage.
"I'd like to talk to the young lady." The crown prince said. He seems to be in his late twenties, similarly to Alexei. He beckoned me to get off the carriage without taking his eyes off me.
"Your highness, it's dangerous!" A soldier shouted.
"It should be fine, because this girl..." The prince said.
"It can't be!" The soldier replied.
