『どう? 私のサポートがあって良かったでしょう?』
「あ、ああ。おかげで死なずに済んだ。ありがとう」
モンスターの襲撃による興奮と動揺の名残。死ぬ気で走って乱れた呼吸。得体の知れない人物への
ぎながら、相手の表情を観察してその内心を探っていた。
『どう致しまして。私の高性能ぶりを堪能してもらったところで、これからのことを話したいのだけれど、良いかしら』
「ああ」
アルファが非常に大切なことを伝えるように、相手を見詰めながら一度しっかりと
『何? よく分からないところがあったら、遠慮せずに何でも聞いて』
「そうじゃなくて、その、それも大切な話だってことは分かるんだけど、今後の予定とかこれからの話は後回しにして、まずはここから生きて帰る
い。怒らせたか? 途中で口を挟まない方が良かったか?)
ウェポンドッグ達は今もビルの周囲を
『分かったわ。私も落ち着いていろいろ話を聞きたいし、まずはここから脱出してクガマヤマ都市まで戻りましょう。話の続きは遺跡を出てから。それで良い?』
「ああ。頼む」
生還の見込みが大幅に増えて、その鍵となる人物の機嫌も損ねずに済んだと、アキラは
みながら新たな指示を出す。
『それなら今から下に戻って』
アキラが驚きで吹き出し、軽く
アルファはそのアキラの様子にも全く動じずに、指示通りに動こうとしないアキラを先導するように少し歩いて手招きする。
『どうしたの? 早く行きましょう』
アキラが慌てながら抗議する。
「いや、ついさっきそこから逃げてきたんだろう!? 何でそこに戻るんだ!? 下にはまだモンスターが
『指示の理由を懇切丁寧に説明しても良いけれど、ゆっくり移動しながらにしましょう。アキラが私のサポートを信頼できないって言うのなら仕方無いけれどね。無理強いはしないわ』
アルファはそう言い残すと、アキラを置いてビルの中に続く出入口の方へ歩いていく。
自力で都市まで生還する自信はない。そして少なくとも先ほどの死地を乗り切ったのはアルファのおかげだ。だから一見無謀であっても、その指示に従うことが、生還の可能性を最も上げる選択のはずだ。今はそう信じて、得体の知れない人物の
一度必死に駆け上がった階段を、今度はかなりゆっくりと下りていく。途中で何度も一時停止を指示されてその都度立ち止まり、再開の指示を受けて再び下りていく。
「......それで、何で下に戻るんだ? 危なくないのか?」
く危険よ』
アルファはあっさりとそう答えた。アキラが一瞬
している場所よ? 安全な訳がないでしょう。そんなことも知らずに遺跡に来たの? さっき襲われたのは非常に運が悪かっただけだとでも思っていたの?』
「そ、それはそうだけど、そういう話じゃないだろう。ちゃんと説明してくれ。移動しながらなら懇切丁寧に説明してくれるんだろう?」
『アキラがクズスハラ街遺跡からクガマヤマ都市まで無事に生還する
「分かった。これだけ教えてくれ。アルファの指示通りに動けば、俺はちゃんと生きて帰れるんだな?」
アルファが真顔で答える。
アルファはアキラをじっと見ながら返答を待っている。アキラの返答次第でアルファとの関係は決裂だ。
「......いや、十分だ。......その説明を屋上でしてくれれば良かったのに」
また少し不満げな様子を見せるアキラに、アルファが幼い子を説き伏せるように
『アキラ。私が今から言う指示をしっかり聞いてね。そして可能な限りその指示通りに動いてね。私の指示以外の行動を取るたびに、死ぬ確率が上がるわ。分かった?』
「わ、分かった」
『今から30秒以内に、全力でビルの外に走り出して。ビルを出たら左に曲がって、そのまま何があっても振り返らずに全力で
アルファがアキラに道を譲るように横に移動する。そしてアキラを見ながらビルの出口を指差した。
アキラが引きつった表情でビルの外を見る。そこにもウェポンドッグの攻撃の跡が残っている。死地の光景だ。勢いよく走り出す
時間切れになったらどうなるのだろうか。アキラは一瞬だけその結果を想像して、覚悟を決めてビルの外へ駆け出した。
半壊した高層ビルの谷間を全力で走り続ける。とにかく急いで走り続ける。すぐに息が切れ始め、走る速度が落ち始める。それでも必死に走り続ける。心肺機能が悲鳴を上げ始め、舗装された固い地面を蹴り続けている両脚が痛みを訴え始める。その痛みを我慢して走り続ける。
辺りの静寂が遺跡の中には自分しかいないと伝えているように感じられる。肺と脚と心臓が罵声を上げながら休息を要求し続けている。アキラは少しだけ苦痛を訴える身体の要求に耳を傾けながら走り続ける。
前方には何もいない。後方からも何も聞こえない。もう大丈夫なんじゃないか。そのような思考が無意識に浮かび、僅かに気が緩み始める。その途端、走り続けて
アキラが硬直する。その視線の先、少し離れた場所には、大型モンスターの姿があった。群れではなく1匹だけだったが、その巨体の迫力はアキラを襲ったウェポンドッグの群れを超えていた。
そのモンスターは少し前に見たウェポンドッグに似た外見をしていた。背中からは巨大な大砲を生やしている。しかし犬の部分は群れを作っていたウェポンドッグ達とは異なり、8本脚で脚の位置も非対称という、全体的に
く我に返る。即座に必死の形相で死に物狂いで走り始める。だが既に大分接近を許してしまっていた。振り返らずに走り続けていれば、もっとモンスターとの距離を稼げていた。アルファの警告通り、アキラはアルファの指示に逆らったことで、自分が死ぬ確率を大幅に上げてしまった。
苦痛という全身からの訴えをアキラは全て無視して走り続けた。後方から聞こえるモンスターの足音はどんどん大きくなっている。
『だから勝手に振り返るなって言ったのに。次はちゃんと私の指示に従ってね。振り返って銃撃するタイミングを教えるから、できる限り合わせて』
「銃撃!? あんなやつにこんな拳銃でどうしろって言うんだ!?」
『何度も言うけれど、無理にとは言わないわ』
アキラが貴重な呼吸の機会を消費して叫ぶように答えると、アルファが少し満足げに
「分かった!」
アキラが必死の表情で覚悟を決める。このままなら死ぬだけだ。もうやるしかないのだ。
アキラは素早く振り返り、狙いも付けずに銃を構えて即座に引き金を引いた。
アキラが半狂乱に近い状態で銃を撃ち続ける。その全ての銃弾が次々にモンスターの頭部に飲み込まれていく。モンスターの頭部に内部から多大な損傷を与えていく。
だがそれほどの負傷を与えても、モンスターはその
「......た、倒せた......のか?」
アキラは荒い呼吸を続けながら、本当に倒したのかどうか確証を持てないまま、警戒しながらモンスターを見続けていた。そして息が整い始め、興奮も少し治まってきた辺りで、流れ出る血に沈んだ巨体の様子を改めて見て、
『10秒以内に......』
アキラは最後まで聞かずに必死の形相で走り始めた。
と姿を消した。モンスターの死体だけがその場に残された。
迫ってくるモンスターから死に物狂いで逃げていたアキラに気が付く余地などなかったが、その時アキラの背後では様々なことが起こっていた。
モンスターはアキラにしか見えないというアルファの姿を知覚しており、アキラのすぐ後ろにいたアルファを食い殺そうとしていた。
ウェポンドッグの群れはアキラがアルファの依頼を引き受けた途端に現れた。遺跡の外を目指して必死に走り続けるアキラがその関連性に気付くことはなかった。
アキラはクズスハラ街遺跡の外に何とか
アルファは先回りをしていたかのように姿を現してアキラを迎え入れた。へたり込んで息を整えているアキラに優しく話しかける。
『休んだままで良いけれど、話の続きをしても良いかしら? アキラには私が指定する遺跡を攻略できるほどの装備と実力を身に着けてもらう。その方法を話していた途中だったはずよね』
「ああ。続けてくれ」
く助かるけど、そこまでしてもらって良いのか?」
『気にしないで。これも報酬の前払分よ。それにアキラに私の依頼を完遂してもらう
アキラが懐からハンター証を取り出す。見るからに安っぽい紙切れに、東部統治企業連盟認証第三特殊労働員の文言と、ハンターとしての認証番号、登録者の名前が記載されていた。
アルファがその幾らでも偽造できそうなハンター証を見て、一応確認を取る。
『......ハンター証って、そんな安っぽい作りのものだったかしら。勘違いしないで。別にアキラの話を疑っている訳ではないの。ハンター証として使えるなら問題ないわ。......大丈夫よね?』
アキラがハンターオフィスで登録を済ませた時、職員からハンター証としてこの紙切れを渡されたことに間違いはない。だがその紙切れから漂う何とも言えない安っぽさを指摘され、自分でも改めて見直すと、だんだん不安になってきた。
『どこでハンター登録を済ませたとか、いろいろ聞いても良い?』
アキラはクガマヤマ都市の下位区域にあるハンターオフィスでハンター登録を行った。
スラム街の外れにある派出所は潰れかけの酒場のような外観をしており、半分壊れて文字も薄れている看板に記されているハンターオフィスのマークがなければ、そこがハンターオフィスだと気付くのも難しい状態だった。
アキラの応対をした職員はアルコール中毒手前のような男性で、まるでやる気の感じられない風体をしていた。ハンターオフィスの職員は東部でも人気の職種で、そこの職員は有能な者が多い。だがその男からそのような雰囲気は感じられない。人気職とはいえスラム街付近の勤務を嫌がる者は多く、この男も左遷されてここに流されてきたのだ。やる気も能力も相応だった。
「ハンター登録に来ました。登録の処理をお願いします」
職員が面倒そうに舌打ちをした後で読みかけの雑誌を脇に置く。そしてスラム街の子供への応対を明らかに嫌がっている様子を見せながら職務を進める。
「......名前は?」
職員が手元の端末を操作する。近くのプリンターから安っぽい紙に印刷されたハンター証が出力されると、雑な手付きでそれを取り、面倒そうにアキラに渡した。そして仕事は済んだとばかりに再び雑誌を読み始めた。
アキラは受け取ったハンター証と職員を交互に見ながら困惑していた。ハンター登録にはもっといろいろな手続きがあると考えていたのだが、名前を聞かれただけで終わってしまったからだ。本当にハンター登録が済んだのか不安になり、思わず声に出す。
職員が嫌そうな表情で雑誌からアキラに視線を移す。
「終わりだ。とっとと帰れ」
「名前を聞くだけで終わり? 他にもいろいろ聞いたりするんじゃ......」
職員が心底面倒だという表情で、手でアキラを追っ払う仕草をしながら言い放つ。
「すぐにくたばるお前から、何か聞くことでもあると思ってるのか? どうでも良いやつのどうでも良い情報なんかどうでも良いんだよ。別にお前の名前だってどうでも良いんだ。規則だから聞いてるだけで、偽名だろうが何だろうが知ったことか」
アキラは既に知っていたはずの自身への評価を再認識して、ハンターオフィスから黙って出て行った。
ハンター登録時のことを話し終えたアキラが自分のハンター証をじっと見ている。その目には、現状を理解しつつ、そこから意地でも
『取りあえず、訓練は読み書きからね。情報の取得は非常に重要よ。安心しなさい。私のサポートは超一流だから多少の読み書きぐらいすぐに習得できるわ』
「分かった。頼む。......何で文字が読めないって分かったんだ?」
『そのハンター証だけれど、登録者の名前が、アジラになっているわ』
その雑な仕事に、どこまでも軽んじた対応に、アキラは思わずハンター証を握り潰してしまいそうな自分を必死に抑えていた。
アルファが苦笑しながら提案する。
に軽く尋ねる。
「そういえば、クズスハラ街遺跡で倒したモンスターは何て名前のやつなんだ?」
『恐らく自己改造の仕様変更に失敗した個体なのでしょうね。だからアキラでも倒せるほど弱かったのよ』
『そこは解釈次第ね。あのモンスターにはアキラでも倒せるような致命的な弱点があって、幸運にもその弱点を
"How was that? I gave good support, didn't I?"
"Y-Yeah, I was saved because of that. Thanks."
As he tried to calm himself down, Akira thought of everything that just happened. The leftover thrill and adrenaline rush from the monsters' attack, his screaming lungs as he was short of breath since he was running around like crazy; the wariness toward the unknown girl, and the feeling of gratitude after he was saved by her. All of these feelings and sensations pooled into one as he made a mixed expression.
As for Alpha, she was just standing there, staring at him and trying to read deeper into his heart while giving off a wonderful smile that made Akira less cautious of her.
"You are very welcome. Now that you just got a taste of how great I am, I want to talk about what I want to ask of you. Is that alright?"
"Yeah"
Alpha kept staring at Akira's eyes and gave off a nod as if she was about to bring a very serious talk.
"What is it? Just ask away if there's any part that you don't understand."
"That's not what I meant. So uhh, I understand that it's an important subject, but can we save that for later? To be honest, I want to talk about how can I get back safely from here first if possible"
[...Oh crap, did I make her angry? Maybe I shouldn't have cut her talk there]
The weapon dogs were still roaming around the building, so he couldn't stay there forever. he had to do something to get out from this sticky situation, otherwise, he would definitely get killed sooner or later. This is the reason why he cut Alpha's talk short, but then, he realized that if he angered Alpha there, then it's the same as cutting off his own lifeline.
"I understand. I also want to ask you about a lot of things once we're in a better situation. So let's get out from this place and go back to Kugamayama city first, then we can continue our talk after that, ok?"
"Yes, please"
Akira let out a sigh of relief as his survivability just shot up as he knew that he didn't anger her.
But suddenly, Alpha gave another order to him while smiling as if she intentionally wanted to erase that relief off him.
"In that case then go down right now"
Akira immediately gasped and choked. Then after he recovered, he stood up with a dumbfounded look.
Alpha didn't seem to be bothered by Akira's reaction. She just lightly walked off while waving at Akira as if she was trying to lead Akira who just stood still there.
"What's wrong? Let's go"
Which to that, Akira protested while panicking.
"No, well, I just came out from down there, right!? So why are we returning back to that place again!? There are still monsters roaming below, you know?!"
"I don't mind explaining it to you but... I'll do that while we move slowly. But well, if you can't trust my support, then there's nothing I can do about it. I won't force you or anything"
After saying that, Alpha kept walking deeper into the building, leaving Akira behind.
Akira had no confidence if he could return back to the city safely on his own, not to mention that it's thanks to Alpha's support that he was able to survive the monsters' attack from before. That's why, he understood well that although it looked like a crazy idea to him, he had the best survival chance if he just followed her order. So, he decided to put his bet on her and rushed into that unknown girl.
He walked down the stairs relatively slowly compared to when he climbed the stairs as fast as he could a few moments ago. Following Alpha's orders, he stopped, hid himself, and started walking again for a few times during his way down the stairs.
"...So, why are we returning below? Isn't it dangerous down there?"
"It's really dangerous down there, you know"
Akira was shocked and taken aback by Alpha's prompt answer. But then he hurriedly asked Alpha again.
"There are monsters roaming down there, you know? So that place is far away from being safe. Did you come to this ruin without even knowing that? Do you think that it was purely because of your bad luck that you were attacked back there?"
"O-Of course I know that... But that's not what I was asking. Just explain it to me already, you did say that you will do that while we're moving, right?"
"In order for you to get back safely to Kugamayama City from this Kuzusuhara city ruin, you have to get out from this building. But I don't think you have the ability to jump down from the rooftop and land safely, that's why we're taking the stairs-"
"Alright, alright. But tell me one thing, if I obey everything you say, then I'll be able to return back safely, right?"
Alpha answered with a serious look.
Then Alpha kept looking at Akira as she was waiting for an answer. Depending on his answer, their relationship might end right there.
"...Nope, that's good enough... You could've explained that when we're on the rooftop, you know?"
Looking at still unsatisfied Akira. Alpha smiled as if she was trying to cheer up a small kid and said to him.
"Akira, listen closely to my orders and try your best to follow them. Every time you make a move outside of my order, it'll increase the chance of you getting killed, you understand that?"
"I-I understand"
"30 seconds from now, run as fast as you can to exit the building and then go left. Just keep running following the road without looking back no matter what. And when I give you the sign, turn back, put your gun in front of you, and empty it. You understand?"
Alpha slid aside as if she's making a way for Akira, and then she pointed her finger to the exit while staring at Akira.
Akira anxiously took a peek outside the building, he could see the leftovers of the weapon dogs' attack that was also there. It's the scene of a death zone. He prepared himself to dash as fast as he could. As he leaned forward to take off and run away from that place with all his strength, his feet planted firmly on the ground. He hesitated. Executing and understanding are two different things. He understood it well, but he didn't have enough resolve to execute it.
Akira imagined for a fraction of a second what would happen to him if the time ran out. And so he resolved himself and went off.
He blazed through the gaps between the half destroyed high buildings with all he had. He quickly ran out of breath, but he kept running. His heart started screaming in pain, but he kept running. The sole of his feet started feeling the pain from kicking the paved hard road, but he kept running. He gritted his teeth and kept running. He didn't see any monsters around and he didn't hear any sound of a fight either. So he started questioning why he kept running like that.
The silence around him was telling him that he's all alone in that ruin. His lungs, his heart, and his legs were screaming in pain begging for a rest, but he ignored those screams as he kept running.
He saw nothing in front of him and he heard nothing from behind. He started to think that he's already safe. But as he started to calm down, all the pains and tiredness from the running crashed down on him.
Akira was petrified. He saw a big monster not too far from where he was standing. Although it's all alone, it's more dangerous than the group of monsters that attacked him.
At a glance, that monster looked like the weapon dog that he just encountered from before with a big cannon growing on its back. But unlike them, it had such a distorted body as if it's trying to break the norm with its 8 asymmetric legs.
Although he couldn't see Alpha at all, he could clearly hear her voice shouted at him. He immediately snapped back into reality thanks to it and started running as fast as he could. But the monster had closed most of the distance between them, he would have standing further away from the monster had he kept running without looking back at all. It's as Alpha warned him, his chance of getting killed skyrocketed every time he doesn't do as Alpha instructed.
His whole body was screaming in pain, but Akira ignored it as he kept running. He could hear the stomping sound behind him getting louder and louder. But thanks to its malformed body, its running speed was relatively slow, thus Akira could keep his distance from it. But still, the earth rumbled and let out a thunderous sound every time its huge legs kicked the ground, it reminded Akira just how scary its huge body and legs.
"Geez, I've warned you so many times not to look back, haven't I? Try to follow my order exactly as I tell you next time. I'll give you a sign when you'll have to turn and shoot back, so try your best to follow it, okay?"
"Shoot back!? Are you telling me to fight that huge thing with this handgun?!"
"I've been telling you this again and again, I won't force you to follow my orders"
Akira shouted and wasted his precious chance to take a breath, but Alpha was satisfied by that answer and smiled happily.
"Okay!"
Akira resolved himself and made a grim expression. He knew that he had no other choice since he'll get killed otherwise.
Akira turned as fast as he could and immediately emptied his gun without even aiming at all.
Akira kept pulling the trigger on his gun like crazy in a close range like that. All the bullets that came out from his gun went right into the monster's head thus injuring the monster from the inside.
Although Akira had caused a lot of damage on the monster, its augmented vitality saved it from instant death. But there's no mistaking it that it's already on its death door as it kept screaming in agony until its inevitable death.
"...D-did I do it...?"
Akira breathing was roughly but he still managed to squeeze out a few words. Since he couldn't confirm whether it's really already dead or not, Akira kept his guard up while staring at the monster. Once he calmed down and fixed his breathing for a bit, the reality that he killed the monster started seeping in as he was looking at the dead monster soaked in its own blood.
"In 10 seconds..."
Akira dashed without even waiting for the end of her sentence.
Alpha kept looking at Akira as he ran off, she only gave a playful smile and suddenly vanished, leaving the dead body of the monster all alone behind.
Akira who kept running as fast as he could from the attacking monster didn't realize it, but there were a lot of things happening behind him.
Just like Akira, the monsters could also see Alpha, so they were trying to eat Alpha who was behind Akira.
That group of monsters appeared the moment Akira accepted Alpha's request, but Akira who was running as fast as he could to the outside of the ruin didn't notice that at all.
Akira was somehow able to get outside of the Kuzusuhara city ruin. That place was still a bit dangerous, but it's way safer there compared to the inside of the ruin.
Alpha suddenly appeared and welcomed Akira as if she got there first before him. Akira immediately fell down on his knees trying to calm his breathing. Then Alpha gently spoke to him.
"I don't mind if you want to take a rest there, but is it okay if I continue our talk? We were in the middle of talking on how are you going to get enough equipment and skill to explore the ruin that I want you to go to"
"Ah, sure, go on"
"That would be really helpful. But is it okay for you to give me that much help?
"Don't worry, this is included as my down payment, you know. Not to mention that it's in order so that you can complete my request. So in the end, it's more or less for my own sake too. If you think that I might have given too much for your down payment. Then you should give your best in your hard training"
Akira took out his hunter certificate from his chest. It looked like just a cheap piece of paper with the written prove saying that he's a certified third rank worker from the eastern region corporate government. It also has his number ID as a hunter and his name written on it.
Looking at that measly hunter certificate that looked like a fake certificate, Alpha inquired further.
"...Is a hunter certificate... Something that looks that cheap? Please don't take me wrong, it's not like I'm doubting it, it's all fine as long as you can use that as a hunter certificate... So, that thing is okay, right?"
The staff in the hunter office gave him that piece of paper when Akira registered himself there, there's no mistaking it. But after Alpha pointed out just how it looked so cheap, Akira started doubting himself.
"I want to ask you a lot of things like where did you register yourself as a hunter, is that okay?"
Akira went to a hunter office located in the lower district of Kugamayama city.
It's located a bit far away from the slum city. From the outside, it looked just like a half destroyed bar as half of the letters on its signboard were already beyond recognition. If it's not because of the hunter office symbol on its signboard, no one would know if that building is a hunter office.
The staff who served Akira was a drunk young man that didn't look like he wanted to do any work. Being a hunter was quite a popular job. Even in the eastern region and there are a lot of great hunters in that area, but that man didn't give that feeling at all. Although it's a popular job, many people hate to be posted near the slum city. That man must be someone who got demoted and transferred into this post that was befitting of his motivation and ability.
"I came to be a hunter, may I do my registration here?"
That staff looked annoyed as he clicked his tongue and put off the magazine that he was reading. And then he moved on with his duty, although, Akira could obviously see that he didn't want to do it.
"...Your name?"
The staff operated the terminal in front of him, not too long after, a printer near him printed out a piece of signed hunter certificate. He rudely took the paper from the printer and handed it over to Akira. Once he's done with his job, he quickly grabbed his magazine and started reading again.
Akira was confused, he looked back and forth from the hunter certificate that he just received to that staff. He thought that registering as a hunter would take a lot more work than that, but there, he just told the staff his name and it's done. He wasn't sure whether the registration was really already finished or not, and so he involuntarily asked the staff.
The staff looked annoyed as he shifted his view from the magazine to Akira.
"That's all, now go home"
"You just needed my name? Don't you need any other information too...?"
He looked really annoyed from the bottom of his heart as he made a gesture to shoo Akira and said.
"Since you'll be dead in no time, do you really think I'll ask you for more information? I don't care about any information that you have. To be honest, I don't even really care about your name. I just asked for it because that's the rule, I don't even want to know if that's your real name or not"
That reminded Akira of how much worth someone like himself has. After he realized that, he just shut up and walked away from the hunter office.
Akira kept staring at his certificate after he finished explaining how did he get it. As he understood the situation he was in, he vowed that he would crawl up from his current condition.
"We'll start your training with reading and writing, after all, collecting information is a very important thing. But don't worry, you'll be able to read and write in no time with my first class level support"
"I understand. I'll be in your care... By the way, how do you know that I can't read?"
"The name written in that hunter certificate, it's Ajira"
That man didn't only treat him unpleasantly, he even made a mistake in his job. Akira was desperately trying to hold himself back from crushing his own hunter certificate.
Then Alpha made a suggestion while smiling bitterly.
Akira asked a simple question to lighten the mood there.
"By the way, what is the name of that monster that I just defeated in Kuzusuhara city ruin?"
"Presumably, that one made a mistake in executing its self remodeling. That's why you're able to easily defeat it"
"That depends on how you see it. That monster had a fatal weakness that allowed you to defeat it and it might just be out of pure luck that you were able to use that weakness. But if you can defeat that kind of monster one more time, then you might interpret that as its appearance is just for show, of course that is if you can defeat it again without my support, you know?"
