313話 悪魔を生む錬金術士
「もちろん、泣いたって許しはしないから」
俺の一言に残り9人の
ただし、それも数瞬の事。
「ハッ! 許しを俺様が請うだと~? たかが犬っころ数十匹で粋がってんじゃねえ。つまらねぇんだよ、こちとら既に
がわめき散らし、落ちた戦意は元に戻ったようだ。そしてすぐさま数人の敵から『キィィィーン!』と耳鳴りを爆音にしたかのような異音が発生し始める。
超音波のようなそれはひどく耳障りで、こちらの精神をガリガリと削ってくる。
たしか『感染都市サナトリウム』時代において、一部の
人狼は耳が良い。おそらくこの超音波みたいなアビリティによって動きを止められてしまうのかもしれない。
「さーって、役立たずの犬どもへ攻撃だあ! お前ら
彼の号令で、敵勢は夜の闇に溶け込むように姿を消す。なんらかの隠密アビリティ、もしくは擬態アビリティだろう。
ただし、肝心の顔の見えない
「天使やろー、よぉおく聞け! お前こそ手も足も出ず、俺様にひれ伏すんだよぉお!?」
ふむ。
俺は腰に差さった二刀のうちの一振りをおもむろに鞘から抜く。
「ぐうッ!?」
そう、感知するだけで、俺は
「ぐあぁッ!? 一撃が重い!」
敵の傭兵らは、鼻と耳が異様に鋭い『
それほど効果的ではない。
むしろ不快感も相まって、より獰猛にしてしまうだけだろう。
「この役立たずどもがッッ! なら俺様がやる、これでも喰らえ!」
は、味方のやられっぷりに毒づいた。
ここまでは想定内だったが、次の彼の行為には予想の斜め上を行かれた。
彼の右手に握られた――
ごつい長銃から不意にパァンパァンパァンッと乾いた銃声音が鳴り響く。
これはさすがにヤバいと思って反応しようとするが、さすがは銃だ。
なすすべもなく、俺は銃撃にさらされてしまう。
「失笑。微々たる鉛傷、早々に治癒」
肝心の銃弾は一発も俺には届いていない。
「憂慮。銀製であらば危ぶまれ」
俺の目の前にはこの世の者とは思えない美男美女が立ちはだかり、銃弾の全てをその肉体にめり込ませていたからだ。
ヴラド伯爵より派遣された【
しかも吸血鬼特有の再生能力がすさまじいのか、弾丸を受けた箇所は既にかすり傷一つない。
「ルード卿、アキレス嬢。ありがとう」
「告知、閣下の命はヴラド伯爵様と同義」
「忠節、閣下は我らの主と同義」
うーん、確かに先程の彼が言った通りの展開になってしまったかも?
だから俺は敵勢に対してゆっくりと顔をめぐらし、思ってる内容を口にする。
「なぁ、手も足も出ない、とはまさにこの事だな?」
俺は両手をぷらんと上げてニコリと笑ってみせる。
「お前ら相手に、まるで自分の身体を動かす必要がないな? つまらないよ」
「クッ、クソがッ......だが、俺様にはまだッ!」
何やら奥の手を隠し持っていそうな雰囲気だな。こういう輩を放置しておくのは今後に響きそうなので、後顧の憂いを絶つためにもここは徹底的に情報を抜き取って、完膚無きまでに叩き潰す必要がある。
だから俺は撒き餌も兼ねて、右斜め後方で息をひそめながら闇に隠れられてるつもりの傭兵へと狙いを定める。
「さすがにこのままじゃつまらないから、ちょっと遊ぼうかな――
一瞬で敵に接近し、横なぎに一撃を払う。
そして敵の傭兵が攻撃を認知した頃には、詰めた距離の半分ほど離れた場所に俺は忽然と姿を現す。
「なんだ......いまのは!?」
は驚愕してはいるけれど、そこまでのダメージはなさそうだ。
やはり、俺の力やこちらの刀では火力が低いのだろうな。
でもきっと目的は十分に果たせたかな?
「まさか......こいつは話題の新スキル、刀術スキルを!?」
「超超高額で鉄血ジョージが取り扱ってると聞いてたが......」
「ここでも姫プかあああ! 知り合いの伝手で横流ししてもらうとか、汚ねえガキだ!」
いい反応してくれる。
情報収集をしているだけあって、俺の放ったアビリティと刀を見ただけで刀術スキルに辿り着いたのはさすがと言えよう。
さて、面白いほどに相手が勝手に勘違いしてゆくのを見て、俺の遊び心がさらに顔をだしてしまう。
「ただの刀術スキルだと思うか?」
そう問いながら、すらりと二本目の刀を鞘より抜けば――
やはり過剰に反応してくるのだった。
「まさか......二刀流だと......!?」
「一体どんなスキルなんだ......!?」
』も双剣使いだったな。妹の方も同系統か......」
二刀流とうそぶいて腰に刀を二本差しているが、別に『刀術スキル』の切り込み数が2倍になったりしない。むしろ『
だが、しかし!
どうせ両手に武器を持てる仕様で、ちょうど刀もそれにふさわしい物を『武打ち人』から頂いているわけでして。要は姉が双剣スキルを使ってるのを見て、かっこよかったので俺も形だけは真似てみただけだ。
「俺の二刀流スキルを味わいたい奴はいるか?」
思いっきり不敵な笑みで相手を牽制する。
ただの強がりだし、ボーっと突っ立てるだけなのに、相手は揃いもそろって警戒心マックスだ。
たちにすり潰されてゆき、残りはたったの3人。
さてここまで減らせば、万が一の事があってもミナたちに危害を加えるのは難しいだろう。
そして十分に相手が欲しがりそうな『
あわよくばこんな奴らから全てを奪う算段も立てながら喋る。
「なぁ、そこの顔の見えない人。もしかして爵位持ち、領地持ち
「な......に......? どうしてお前が......」
知っているか、だって?
この反応はビンゴ!
「なッ!? お前も、しかも伯爵......!?」
イグニトール女王陛下より賜った叙勲の証でもある『
「通りで俺様より強大な戦力を......く、クソッ! お前みたいなクソガキは、周りの配下さえいなければ余裕で勝てるのに! どこまでも姫プやろーがぁぁああ!」
「これ持ってるなら、知ってると思うけど【
それは互いの全てを賭けて、1対1の決闘をするといった爵位持ちのみができる戦闘システムだ。
貴族間での揉め事に発展した場合、問題解決に使われる手法だそうで、互いが決闘に承諾した場合のみ成立する。決闘者のみしか入れない透明のバリアが周囲に張られ、他者はその場の証人として戦いの様子も観察できる仕様になっている。
そして一番肝心な要素は双方の爵位や領地、財産をも賭ける危険すぎる代物って部分。積み重ねてきた生涯そのものを担保にし、スキルさえも一つのみだが奪える。
「どう? 俺と1対1で戦いたいんだろ? これなら配下
まさに千載一遇、形勢逆転のチャンスに見えるだろうな。
「あっはっはっはー! 天使ぃ、お前は本当にバカなんだなあー、俺様と【
「え? いや、手も足も出す必要のない相手に負けるはずないでしょ?」
煽ってやると、面白いぐらいに即答だ。
「舐めやがって。乗ってやるよ、その愚鈍な提案になあ! 俺様とお前じゃ賭けにすらならねえんだよ!」
他者の介入を拒む透明なバリアだけでなく、決闘にふさわしい荘厳なバトルフィールドが即座に生成されてゆく。白亜の大理石によって彩られた空間は、どこかの宮殿か神殿のようだ。
双方の全身全霊を賭した空間にふさわしい場が設けられ、俺もそれなりに気分が高揚してきた。
「それじゃあ、始めようか。決闘を」
互いの全身全霊をぶつけ合う、ありとあらゆる能力やスキル、アビリティ、アイテムを駆使して行われる戦い。
「速攻で終わりだああ! 俺様の銃弾で大人しくキルされなああ!」
敵が拳銃を構えるより早く、『敗北の四言者』によって生成したアイテム【
『グォォォォオオオオオオオオオォォオオオッ!』
地の底から怨嗟をまき散らすような、身の毛もよだつ大咆哮。
その威圧感に圧倒されたのか、男爵様は一歩、二歩と後ろへよろめいた。
「おい......なんだ、これは......しょ、召喚スキルか!? いや、召喚するスピードがこんなに速い召喚アビリティなんてない、はずだ......」
「あれ? もしかして、また手も足も出ないかも?」
さてさて。
このような外道であるならば、心おきなく実験ができる。
人体部位素材の採取、始めますか。
これから始まる恐怖と絶望によって、絶対凍土の大地をその心に張り巡らしてやろう。
内心で抑え込んでいた怒りを放つ時がきた。
317 313 Stories The Alchemist Who Generates The Devil
"Of course, because I won't forgive you for crying"
The nine remaining mercenaries (players) in my words will fall back.
But it's also a matter of a few moments.
"Ha! I beg your forgiveness? I'm not disappointed in dozens of dogs. I don't know, I already know how to attack a werewolf!
As soon as possible, the faceless mercenaries (players) were scattered and the fallen warfare seemed to have returned to normal. And just a few enemies said, "Kiwien! 'and a strange noise begins to sound as if it had made the tinnitus explode.
It's like an ultrasound. It's terribly deaf, and it's grinding this one's spirit.
However, during the "Sanatorium Infected City" era, rumors have been heard that some mercenaries (players) have found ways to attack the werewolf (Lycan). I feel it was a method such as stopping a werewolf from moving and putting intensive fire in that gap.
The werewolf has good ears. Perhaps this ultrasound-like ability will stop you from moving.
"That's an attack on useless dogs! You guys do what you always do (...)!
With his decree, the enemy disappears to blend into the darkness of night. It would be some kind of covert ability, but also a pseudo-ability.
However, the faceless mercenary (player) at the heart stands still without breaking his spare attitude.
"Angel, hey, hey, listen! You're the one with no hands, no legs, and you're gonna fall on me!?
Hmm.
I drain one of the two swords out of my sheath.
"Guh!?
Yes, just sensing, I do nothing (...).
"Guh!? The blow is heavy!
Enemy mercenaries are eaten unconsciously by the "Lunar Wolf (Urk Lycan)", whose nose and ears are unusually sharp, supplementing their position without difficulty.
Not so effective.
Rather, the discomfort will only go hand in hand and make it more fierce.
"You useless bastards! Then I'll do it. Eat this!
The faceless mercenary (player) was poisoned by the opponent's blow.
Until this point, it was assumed, but the next act of him went the diagonal of anticipation.
I was gripped in his right hand.
Unexpectedly, the sound of a vampire, vampire, dry gun sounds from a long, stubborn gun.
This just sucks and I try to react, but that's a gun.
I'll be exposed to shooting, even if I don't.
"Smile. Slight lead wound, healed early"
Not a single bullet at the heart has reached me.
"Worry. If it's made of silver, it's in danger."
Because in front of me there was a beautiful man, a beautiful woman, who didn't seem like a man of the world, standing and letting all of the bullets get into its flesh.
Sent by Count Vlad, [Noble Vampire (Nobles Vamp)] is constantly lurking in my shadow as an escort, and they perceived the crisis and revealed themselves to me.
Moreover, there is already no scratch where the bullet was received because of the vampire-specific regenerative capacity.
"Sir Rude, Miss Achilles. Thanks."
"Notice, Your Lordship's life is synonymous with Count Vlad"
"Faithfulness, Your Excellency is synonymous with our Lord"
Um, could it indeed have been unfolding as he said earlier?
So I slowly turn my face against the enemy and say what I think.
"Look, there's no hands, no legs, that's exactly what this is about, right?
I pull my hands up and make them laugh nicely.
"You guys don't have to move your own bodies, do you? It's boring."
"Kuh, shit... but not to me yet!
Sounds like you're hiding your back. Leaving these people alone is going to sound like it in the future, so we need to thoroughly extract information here and smash them by the time they have no complete skin, even to stop worrying about their hindsight.
That's why I set my sights on mercenaries who are going to be hidden in the dark, whispering their breath diagonally backwards to the right.
"That's just not boring as it is, so let's play - Hatsutaki -"
Approaching the enemy in an instant and paying a blow across the side.
And by the time the enemy's mercenaries recognize the attack, I will appear neglected about half the distance I packed.
"What... now!?
Hmm. My hit mercenaries (players) are stunned, but they don't seem to have that much damage.
After all, I guess my powers and this knife are low on fire.
But I'm sure you served your purpose well enough?
"No way...... this guy has new skills on the subject, knife skills!?
"I heard it was super expensive and handled by Iron Blood George..."
"Even here, Princess P. Oh! You know, get it sidelined with a handout I know, or you're a dirty kid!
It responds well.
I'm just gathering information, and let's just say I got to my knife skills just by looking at my unleashed abilities and knives.
Now, the funnier I see them mistaken on their own, my playfulness makes me look even better.
"You think it's just a knife skill?
With that in mind, if you pull a sledge and a second knife out of your sheath...
It was still overreacting.
"No way... duplicitous...!?
"What the hell kind of skills...!?
"Speaking of which, 'God of the Hunter (Singh)' was also a double-swordsman. Is my sister of the same descent..."
I lie to the duplicitous and have two knives on my hips, but I don't double the number of cuts in "Knife Skills". Rather, it fires a blow with a weapon with less firepower than "Orange Phantom Knife: [Mirror Flower]," which equals weakened. What's more, it's indefinitely difficult to release a slash while holding two swords.
But, but!
The specification is that you can hold a weapon in both hands, and the knife is just what it deserves. The point is, I saw my sister use her double-sword skills, which was cool, so I just tried to imitate the shape, too.
"Who wants to taste my duplicitous skills?
Catch the opponent with an invincible grin as you wish.
He's just a tough guy, and Bo just sticks out, but he's all set and alert, Max.
And in the meantime, the number of enemy mercenaries (players) is crushed by the werewolves (Lycans), with only three remaining.
Now, if we reduce it to this point, it will be difficult to do harm to the Minas in case anything happens.
And the "Duplicant (story)" they seem to want enough of is also a lie, but I showed it to them, let me gather information.
He also talks as he sets up an arithmetic to take everything away from these people.
"Hey, faceless person there. Could it be a mercenary (player) with a title and territory?
"Heh... to...? How could you..."
You know what, 'cause?
This reaction is bingo!
"Nah!? You too, and Count......!?
The Count Silver Medal (Kaut Silvalem) is also a testament to the medal given by Her Majesty Queen Ignithol. In fact, there are other uses for warp items to self-rule.
"Stronger than me in the streets...... dude, shit! Fucking kids like you can win at their leisure without even the subordination around them! Do it everywhere, princess. - Aah!
"If you have this, I think you know, [noble resolution (duel) battle area (dam)] don't you?
It's a battle system that can only hold titles, such as a one-on-one duel, betting on each other's everything.
If they develop into rubbing between nobles, they say it's the method used to solve the problem, which is only established if each other agrees to a duel. A transparent barrier is stretched around which only the duel can enter, and others, as witnesses on the spot, are also able to observe the battle.
And the most pivotal element is the portion of the substitute that is too dangerous to bet on the titles, territories and property of both sides. I can collateralize the very life I've accumulated and take away even one skill, but only one.
"What do you say? You want to fight me one-on-one, right? You can't go in there, can you?
Exactly a thousand encounters, it would look like a chance to reverse the situation.
"Ha-ha-ha! Angel, you're really stupid. Ah, you and I are a thousand years early!"
"Huh? No, you can't lose to someone who doesn't need to have hands or feet, can you?
I'll stir him up and he'll give you an instant answer as funny as it sounds.
"Fuck you. I'll give you a ride, for that stupid suggestion! You and I can't even make a bet!
Not only a transparent barrier that refuses to intervene by others, but a majestic battlefield worthy of a duel is immediately generated. The space, coloured by white marble, looks like some palace or temple.
There was a space suitable for gambling the entire spirit of both sides, and I've been feeling quite elevated.
"Well, shall we begin? Duel."
A battle conducted using all abilities, skills, abilities, and items that bump each other's whole body spirits.
"We're done with the fast track. Oh! My bullets are killing me.
Faster than the enemy puts up a pistol, the item generated by the Four Defeated Speakers [both doors of the Naruto Gate (Abyss Gate)] appears in front of me.
"Gwow, wow, wow!"
My hair growls like a sprinkle of resentment from the bottom of the earth.
Overwhelmed by that intimidation, the Baron took one, two steps and back.
"Hey... what is this... a summoning skill!? No, there can't be a summoning ability this fast to summon, it should..."
"Is that it? Maybe I won't get my hands or legs out again?
Well.
If it is such an outward path, it can be experimented with without a mind.
Do you want to start collecting human body parts material?
Let the earth of absolute frozen earth be stretched out into its heart by the fear and despair that is about to begin.
The time has come to unleash the anger I was suppressing in my heart.
