◇◇◇◆◇◇◇

I hurriedly informed Andrew of this fact.

An imp had come here, and a very powerful monster would soon appear.

Of course, in the original game, it had appeared as a monster that had become a demon.

But since this wasn’t the original timeline now, it could still be treated as a monster.

Fortunately, Captain Andrew accepted my opinion.

It was thanks to my high credibility that this happened.

Otherwise, we would have ended up fighting it without any preparation.

If that had been the case, even if I were there, we wouldn’t have been able to avoid annihilation.

That’s how strong it was.

The security forces quickly repaired the palisade and added crude iron to it to increase its defense.

Even with this, it was still worrisome, but we had to use all the best measures we could.

“Teacher, is something wrong by any chance?”

“It’s nothing. Go inside and wait.”

“But...”

“Listen to me.”

“...Yes.”

Helia nodded her head with a dejected look.

It hurt a little, but it couldn’t be helped.

Aside from anything else, Helia had to survive this battle.

At least if she was pulled to the rear, she wouldn’t die.

Of course, it was true that Helia’s strength was powerful. But right now, she wouldn’t be able to deal with the Togui.

Because the Togui was also strong.

In the first place, despite being created as a low-level monster, the Togui constantly pursued strength.

As a result, it was the only low-level monster that had obtained the position of a demon, a monster among monsters.

“Tsk.”

“You look anxious, Captain.”

“Clarence.”

“What is it that’s making you look like that?”

“It’s a very powerful monster called a Togui.”

“Togui? I’ve never heard that name before.”

Clarence tilted his head, but I couldn’t tell him any more than that right now.

I didn’t know everything about the Togui either.

Of course, I had seen the settings book.

In the first place, the developers weren’t the type to actively reveal the settings.

They wanted the players to find out for themselves. As if they were infected with some kind of shitty monthly subscription disease.

Indeed, if they had been sensible people, they wouldn’t have come up with that kind of ending where the Time Stop Uncle raped and impregnated all the heroines in the good ending.

Damn bastards.

“...It’s coming.”

On the third day since we strengthened our vigilance, that thing finally showed itself in front of us.

It was openly walking towards the palisade, trampling the snow.

I swallowed my saliva.

It had a huge human body. It was a huge human male body that easily exceeded 3 meters.

However, the owner of that body covered in muscles was not a human, but a cow’s head.

The true identity of the Togui was a Minotaur.

Originally, Minotaurs were monsters created as shock troops.

They had excellent physical abilities but low intelligence, so they were used and discarded.

However, among those Minotaurs, there was an individual that particularly yearned for strength.

It fought against the strong to become even stronger.

Even if the opponent was a monster or a demon.

“A Minotaur? Isn’t that just a stupid low-level monster?”

“We made all this fuss because of something like that?”

“Enough, enough. Let’s just end it quickly.”

“Wait...!!!”

A Minotaur’s charge was certainly threatening, but a properly trained soldier could somehow react to it.

Moreover, even if a trap was set, it would openly charge into the trap.

Especially soldiers with a lot of real combat experience often looked down on Minotaurs. And among them, the soldiers who were confident in their skills openly ran forward.

“What?”

“There is no fighting spirit in your eyes. You are not a warrior.”

“...”

“Is it really true that you defeated that Gourmet?”

As expected of the Togui.

As much as it was crazy about fighting, its insight to recognize opponents was amazing.

Just as it said, I was not a warrior.

If I had to say, I was closer to an ordinary person.

But that was rather fortunate.

If its fighting spirit was broken, wouldn’t it just go back on its own?

I briefly thought that way.

Until a red flash flickered.

Helia’s red eyes appeared behind the Togui in an instant, like lightning. Helia shouted,

“You dare... a piece of trash like you, to Teacher...!!!”

Why are you coming out from there?

“This seems more interesting.”

Why are you suddenly showing interest again?

* * *

She didn’t know the reason.

She thought she would follow all of Teacher’s words. But Helia couldn’t do that.

For some reason, it seemed like Teacher would disappear.

So, Helia secretly hid inside the city wall.

“Disappointing.”

“What?”

“There is no fighting spirit in your eyes. You are not a warrior.”

And there, she heard it.

A piece of trash she had never seen or heard of dared to insult Teacher.

Unable to hold back the anger welling up in her heart, she drew her sword and charged.

Thunder Dragon Sword Technique, First Sword: Thunder Dragon Fang

Helia’s sword, scattering a red flash like a fang of lightning, reached the Togui.

Soon, the sound of metal clashing against metal rang out.

Helia was momentarily surprised.

The Thunder Dragon Fang couldn’t pierce through that monster’s overwhelmingly sturdy body.

However, it had already moved.

The Togui’s fist, with its fighting spirit ignited, was heading towards Helia.

The Togui’s fist, which had approached right in front of her in an instant, was truly like the Grim Reaper.

She would die, she couldn’t avoid it.

Faced with that unchanging cruel fact, Helia couldn’t even blink her eyes.

“...?”

The Togui tilted its head.

It was a blow that was absolutely impossible to avoid.

Moreover, there was no way a human’s weak flesh and bones could withstand it. But there was no feeling at all in its fist.

It thought she might have dodged it, but right at that moment, a tearing sound was heard, and blood splattered from the Togui’s hand.

There was already a wound on the Togui’s hand, caused by a sword.

“...Indeed, was my insight lacking?”

At first, it was definitely disappointed.

It thought that person was definitely not a warrior.

However, the Togui soon had no choice but to correct its thought.

There was a warrior behind the Togui.

“Let’s not rush too much.”

Helia blinked her eyes.

She thought she had died.

But for some reason, she was in Teacher’s arms.

It was definitely the worst situation.

Helia couldn’t even be of help.

“There’s still plenty of time, you know?”

Why?

Why did that embrace feel so reassuring?

[T/N: What do you guys think so far? Especially since this one has a bit of an interesting title lmao.]
