The One Who Beats You (Medjed) Kroki

　Myself and Totona rode the flying chimera and watched Rage and the others from behind.

'The battle has begun. Medjed.

Looks like it, Toto.

　I nodded at Tona's words.
　We caught up with Rage and the others and were wondering if we should join them, when suddenly a cloud of dust rose.
　The battle had begun.
　Rage is fighting a man with a long spear that suddenly appears.
　He is quite skilled.

''Tona. Who is that spearman?''

That's Dahak, Prince of Snakes. The son of Deirdre, Queen of the Serpent. I thought he was killed by Alfos, but I can't believe he's alive: ......

　Tona gives me a look of disbelief.
　The Serpent Queen is a goddess who is hostile to Elios.
　How could her son be here?
　I'm thinking about that.
　A short distance away from where Rage and the others are, a group of women with snakes in their lower bodies appear.
　They are Lamia and Gorgon.
　They are supposed to be part of the Serpent Queen's household.
　Perhaps they followed the serpent prince and came together.
　Should they join the rage?
　I don't think Rage is a problem.
　I feel like his arms are up more than before.
　The spearman seems to be pretty strong, but Rage has the upper hand at the moment.
　But what about Rage's friends?

Huh?

　I couldn't help but shout.
　Suddenly, a giant appeared out of the sand and captured a fellow girl.
　It was the Giant of the Earth (Gigatess), which has become synonymous with giants.
　The Giant of the Earth (Gigates) emerged from the sand and grabbed the girl with his left hand.
　The captured girl looks familiar.
　I'm pretty sure it's the girl named Chiyuki.
　The skills of the earth giants (Gigattes) are comparable to those of the gods.
　It's dangerous to get caught.

''Tona! I'll help her!

　As I say this, I fly from the chimera's back and head towards the giant.
　The giant lets go of Chiyuki as he flies with his flying magic and hits the body as it is.
　The giant flies off and Chiyuki lets out a cute scream.
　I hold Chiyuki in the air and land on top of her in the sand.
　She looks at you with a dumbfounded expression as you set Chiyuki down on the sand.
　It's like she doesn't understand what has happened.
　Come to think of it, this is the third time I've saved her.
　What happens twice will happen three times, as they say.

"Who are you! You are: ！！！！

　I hear an angry voice.
　When you look at the direction of the voice, the giant of the earth (Gigatess) you pushed away gets up.
　The wind blows from its massive body.
　The Gigatess is also very powerful.
　It probably intends to use its magic to increase its speed.
　The wind whipped the cloth from its head.
　There's no choice but to intercept them.

The snake... ！！！！！ A giant snake... ！！！！！

　Chiyuki suddenly screams.
　Surprised, I look at Chiyuki.
　She is red-faced and trembling.
　What's wrong with her?

"You'll regret pushing me out of here!

　However, he doesn't seem to have time to worry about such a chill.
　The earth giants (gigatesses) are approaching us.

''O unseen gray spirit! Answer the call! Be a wall to keep out the enemy! True Shadow Spirit Wall (True Shadow Wall)!

　Suddenly, I hear Tona's voice from above me.

''Guhggh?!!!''

　When the earth giant (Gigatess), which was coming towards us at a furious pace, collides with the magical wall created by Totona, it lets out a strange voice and falls on its back.
　The magic that Totona used was to create a completely colorless and transparent wall.
　This magical wall can only be noticed by those with high sensing ability.
　And it is quite sturdy.
　If you run into it without knowing what it is, you'll end up like a fallen earth giant (Gigates).
　I've seen Lugus use it before, but it looks like Totoona can use it too.

'Are you okay?'

　Riding on the chimera, Tona comes down with a book.
　The book she is holding is probably a grimoire.

'Thank you Goddess Totona ...... for saving me. It's okay .......

　Coming to himself, Chiyuki replies to Tona.
　Her slightly visible cheeks are bright red.
　She must be embarrassed by the fact that she is not good with snakes and shouted unintentionally.
　In fact, she is so embarrassed that she won't even look at you.
　I want to comfort her by telling her that everyone has a weakness for them, but I have no choice but to keep my mouth shut because speaking out will reveal my true identity.

''So? More than that! We have to do something about the earth giants (Gigatess)!

　Chiyuki shouts.
　There are five remaining giants of the earth (Gigatess).
　The cats are quick and haven't been caught so far, but it's bad if I don't do something about it.

''Medjed! Please!

　I nod at Tona's words.
　You kick the sand and head towards one of the giants of the earth (Gigates).
　I'm not going to be able to get rid of the earth giant (Gigates) that noticed me swinging its club, but I twisted my body and ducked, then jumped up and hit the earth giant (Gigates) in the belly as it bent down.

''Gugueh!

　A Gigathes emerges with a strange voice, and kicks the body of an Earth Giant (Gigathes) at another Gigathes, who is chasing the Catman.
　The body of the kicked Giant of Earth (Gigathes) collides with another Gigathes, causing it to fall.
　Two of them are now down. There are three remaining.
　The three Gigatesses looked at us with a look of disbelief.
　Meanwhile, the Cats take their distance from the Gigattes and head for Tona and the others.
　It's all right now.
　The Earth Giant (Gigates) loses the will to fight and steps back, carrying his fallen comrades.
　Lamia and Gorgon are running away from the monkey-like thing.
　The marauders failed to take themselves by surprise with their arrival. I hope they pull back.

'Mr. Rage!

　Chiyuki tries to get to Rage.
　It's a battle between Rage and Dahak.
　Rage has the upper hand. But there's one more person who hasn't shown up.
　She doesn't seem to notice it.
　I'm the one blocking Chiyuki's path to prevent her from going to Rage.
　She looks startled and turns away.
　She's still embarrassed that she yelled out.

'Hey?! Why are you interrupting me?!

　Chiyuki protests as he turns away.
　But I can't let him go.

''It's the ice spear!

　Suddenly, an ice spear comes flying at us from empty air.
　The ice spear is shot down with a beam coming out of its eyes.
　Then they look up at the one who released the ice spear.
　There is a woman in a crimson costume floating in the air.
　The woman's skin is morbidly white and her hair is as bright red as her costume.
　She is a beautiful woman.
　However, her beauty is fake.
　I don't know what she looks like in her true form, but I do know that the figure she's showing is fake.

'What?! What does this mean? You're still here?

　Chiyuki is surprised.
　It's not surprising.
　I didn't even notice it until just a few minutes ago.
　It's a good idea to have the ability to be undetected.

''Hmmm, I'm sorry, but I can't let you go to Daha-kun's place.

　Then the crimson woman laughs.
　I can see teeth as sharp as blades from her blood-colored lips.
　What an anxiety-inducing woman.

"Zafarada. Daughter of the Reaper. I can't believe you're here.

　Tona on the chimera steps in front of the crimson woman.

"Hmmmm. I'm not sure if you are Totona. Daughter of Odis, the lowly god-king. I wonder what your blood will taste like. But not now. I'm going to have to retreat.

　As he says this, a red mist blows out of Zafarada.
　The red mist spreads out in an instant and comes towards us.
　It doesn't attack the giants and snake women, but comes towards us alone, so it's like we're alive.

''Not good! Everyone back!

　All flee from the red fog at Tona's cry.
　The red fog undulates to protect Zafarada and the others.
　Rage is also attacked by the red fog and retreats from the fight with Dahak.

'Get out of my way! Zafarada! What the hell do you think you're doing?!

　Dahark shouts at the woman in the sky.

'No, Mr. Dahak. There's an army of Arnak's men heading this way. It's time to pull back.

　Dahak clicks his tongue when he hears this.

'Tch! No more games, brave men of light! I'll kill you next time! Let's go, Zafarada!

Yes, I know. Mr. Dach.

　More red mist comes out of Zafarada's body and gets thicker and thicker.
　And after a few seconds, when the red fog clears, there is no one there.
　It looks like they've escaped.

'I think we're good to go now,'

　Totona on the chimera comes down to his side.
　There is no sign of the enemy.
　However, you can't be too careful.
　That Zafarada's presence was difficult to sense, even if you could see it.
　There could be an enemy lurking in the area that could completely hide the presence.

''Huh, thank you for your help, Totoona. I didn't expect the serpent prince Dahak and Zafarada, the goddess of corruption and pestilence, to show up. I didn't expect the earth giants (Gigatess) to show up either, and to be honest, it would have been a close call if you guys hadn't come.

　Someone is coming to Tona's side.
　It would be the one who was with Rage.
　I look at the owner of the voice.

' ----------！！！！！

　I almost scream.
　There's a ton of it! But there was an erotic sister standing there.
　Her breasts were wide open, and her breasts seemed to spill out of her breasts, which might surpass Raina's.
　Her buttocks protruded slightly from the slit that was cut to her waist. She's obviously wearing no pants, right? Huh?
　Thank you for just looking at it already! I'm so tempted to get down on my knees and say.
　Who are you? Who's this guy?

That's a lie. I'm sure Ishtia-sama wouldn't be any better than an earth giant (Gigatess).

　Tona looks at Ishtia with cold eyes.
　Ishtia, the goddess of love and beauty.
　I'd heard rumors that she was the one.

'Sort of. If it were just me, though, I might be okay. Chiyuki and the maidservants were a close call, I thank you again, Tona.

　Ishtia looks at me as she winks adorably at Totona.

'By the way, Tona. You have a very interesting looking one with you, what is it? Some kind of magical creature created by Tona?

　Curious, Ishtia moves to the side.
　I step back.
　I'm put off by too many erotic rays.
　This is poison.
　To be honest, Raina is more beautiful and I prefer her.
　However, Ishtia has too much s*x appeal.
　To be honest, I don't like this kind of overly-coolness.
　Just watch it from afar.

''Master Ishtia. Please stay away from Mejed.

　Tona steps forward to cover me.
　Thank God.

'You're already mean, Totona. I was just asking what it was.'

'Medjed is just an escort. Nothing more, nothing less. By the way, Lady Ishtia. You're dressed even better than usual. Who are you after this time?

　Tona tells Ishtia to change the subject.
　It's certainly an amazing outfit. I can't look at it correctly.

'Huh, that's him, of course.

　Ishtia looks at Rage with a sideways glance.
　Rage is talking to Chiyuki.
　It seems that he is confirming that Chiyuki is safe.
　But still, as expected of Reigi to be targeted by such a beautiful woman.
　It's really the same as always.

I'm sure you'll be able to find it. Ishta-sama.

　Totona's voice was a little cold.

'Oh my, Tona. You won't be able to date anyone else if you talk like that, because a good man already has a woman by his side. If you are a good man, you already have a woman by your side. Or do you plan to go out with a mere mortal, an evil god who is messed up inside and out? You don't want to do that. If there's a man you're interested in, you should go ahead and try to steal him away, even if he has a girlfriend.

！！！！

　When Ishtia says this, Totona stumbles back.
　When I look at her, she looks like she's been shot by an electric current.

''Huh, hey Totona. How long do you plan to stay indoors? You don't want to wear such a thick robe just because you don't want to be compared to Raina. Do you plan to live in Raina's shadow forever? You're such a waste of a pretty girl like Felli.

Yeah, .......

　Tona is wobbling and shaking.
　I don't know, but Tona is in trouble.
　She goes in front of Tona.
　Even if she is an erotic sister, she can't allow herself to embarrass Tona.
　She is so sweet.
　I glare at Ishtia.

'Oh my, I may have gone a bit overboard. I'm sorry, Totona. And then there's the guard. Don't worry. I'm not going to hurt Felli's daughter.

　Ishtia leans forward and apologizes.
　Normally, she might be glued to that chest.
　But she's too worried about Totoona behind her to do that.
　What's going on?
　I look behind me and see that Tona is turned over and muttering something to herself.
　She seems to be thinking about something.

'Goddess Totona.'

　Suddenly, Rage calls Totoona from the side.
　When I look, I see Rage with Chiyuki coming towards me.
　Chiyuki, as usual, does not even look at you.
　I'm sure he was that embarrassed to be known for his dislike of snakes.

'Goddess Totoona. Thank you for saving Chiyuki.

　Rage bows to Tona.
　His smile is so refreshing.
　But Totona is immersed in her own world.
　She is oblivious to Rage.
　I see Totona like this sometimes. It's when he's focused on his book.
　Usually he doesn't get in the way.
　Because when he's reading a book, Totona looks like he's having a lot of fun, somehow.
　But right now, she's not reading a book. Let me tell you that Rage is coming to your side.
　He popped Totona's way.

'Huh? Black....... No, Medjed? What's going on?

　Tona almost called his name. She was really deep in thought, but finally came to her senses.
　But she finally comes to herself.
　Tona notices Rage.

"Uh...er.......... Goddess Totoona. Thank you for saving Chiyuki.

　As expected, Rage seems to be surprised by Totoona's condition.

''Oh ...... brave Rage of Light? It wasn't me who saved him. If you want to thank me, you should tell Mejed.

　Tona tells me that Rage looks at me.
　His eyes are the way he looks at the suspicious ones.
　Please don't let them find out who you are.
　I pray in my mind.

Yeah, my mate is saved. Thank you.'

　It's so cold. It's a big difference from when I was a tona.
　It's not like I wanted to be thanked for anything, you know?
　And it looks like she didn't even know it was you.
　I'm relieved.

"Wow! I thank you for that! Thank you for helping me!

　Chiyuki, who was hiding behind Rage, thanks me.
　He doesn't look at us, after all.
　But I'm glad that the pretty girl is safe.

Well, is it time to go? Now that we're done talking, it's time to head to Arnac.

　Ishtia summarizes the story.

'Um. ....... Master Ishtia. That's it, but our ship is broken. At this rate, we may have to head out on foot.

　The cat lady says to Ishtia timidly.
　Perhaps she is Ishtia's handmaiden.
　Perhaps she is hesitant about letting her master, God, walk.

'No, it's all right. It looks like they're coming for me.'

　Ishtia says, looking into the distance.
　I get caught up and look into the distance myself.
　I see dog-man warriors riding on chariots (chariots).
　Above them, there are also armed falcon-headed bird-men (birdmen).
　Probably, it is the Gypseal Divine Army.
　Now we can finally go to the golden city of Arnak, where the Gypseal gods live.
　I looked at the dogs and thought so.
