79 Episode 66 Gathering Prairie




 
 The Gabel Prairie.
 Everything there is green as far as the eye can see.
 A comprehensive nation, the southern edge of the Central Center World.
 The grasslands stretched along the border with the machine city, South City to the south.

''Let's not fight for too long. Let's bring all our forces together and settle this battle once and for all.''

 The Goblin King announced that in a week's time there would be a general camp on Rick's side of this meadow.

 Chairman Barbaroy said nothing.
 There was no rejection or acceptance. If they declared and attacked us, we would have no choice but to intercept them.

Do you think we have a chance?

 Without speaking to anyone, I said to Chairman Barbaroy, who muttered this to me.

'I've got a plan, will you listen to it?'

 It wasn't a strategy to win.
 It was just something that was absolutely necessary for this battle.

'...... If I do that, will you fight with all your might? Even during that Alice's War, you didn't even show a glimpse of your power, so if you're going to fight with all your might, I'll help you.

 I'm always at full throttle full power, but I'm not going to say that now.
 I nodded vigorously, though I felt uncomfortable with the deception.


'That's brilliant. I'm amazed you've managed to pull it off in a week.

 As expected, Nurhachi is impressed.

'Where is Chairman Barbaroi?'
He's even more parched than he was in the Great War. I'm parched. I doubt they'll ever come here.

 Nur Hachitaro laughs with pleasure.
 But for once, I must thank Chairman Barbaroi for his help.

''How far do you think the range can go?''
The whole meadow is covered. The Nuruhachi helped a great deal.
Thank you for that.

 With this, no matter how this battle ended, the worst could be avoided.
 The air that covered the prairie was filled with a sacred air, like the Great War Party.
 Yes, there are four divine pillars embedded everywhere here.
 I asked Chairman Barbaroi to install the Four Divine Pillars that protected me from injury and death in the Great War Party.
 Apparently, he even exhausted all the magic power to make it reach this entire prairie.

''Rick is probably trying to create a new world at the expense of many others, but he's wrong. Maybe Rick is trying to create a new world at the expense of many, but it's not right. Give it to Rick at ...... ale?

 Before I knew it, Nuruhachi, who should have been next to me, had disappeared.
 I looked around, but he was nowhere to be found.

''Takumi!''

 But instead, I heard a nostalgic little voice.

''Chi-chihar!''

 Chihar, who had suddenly disappeared after the big war party, was laughing at his feet.

''Why are you here?''
'I don't know. But I feel like Chihar was always there for me!
'Oh, I see.

 He strokes Chihar's head and looks into the distance.
 I can faintly see what looks like a huge figure from across the grassy field.
 If that is the ultimate weapon Dam Galleon equipped by Rick, it is much larger than expected.

"Oh, don't worry, Takumi is fine.

 I nodded with a smile at Chihar's encouragement.


''Takumi-san, the guild camp, everything is in place.

 Leia stands next to me and tells me that.
 It seems like only a few days ago that we were frolicking in a rice field together for no reason.
 After all, I had only taught Leia to peel potatoes and hadn't done anything master-like for her.

''When this is over, I'll give you a new training. I'll teach you everything I know.
'Yes, sir! Thank you! Takumi!

 Well, it's a dish to teach, but one day it will be useful.

 When I looked behind me, I saw that the guild camp and the few remaining soldiers in the Lucia Kingdom were mingling and lining up.
 Mikuta-san was taking some kind of roll call and counting them.

''It's been a long time since we've had a battle, it's exciting.

 One of them was a man who hadn't been able to attend the Jugo-kai in a long time.

"You'll get beaten up easily. It's better to stay in the back.
"Ahh, I'm going to be active here and return to the rankings, look at me, you bastard.

 The mad warrior Zach and the beast king Miakis are still talking nicely.
 The Four Heavenly Kings (except for Miakis, except for Dogma) and the Demon King have gone to the Rick camp.
 I wondered why Miakis was the only one who stayed here, but after watching their exchange, I was somewhat convinced.

''Takumi-dono, Dragon Clan, we are ready.

 A large number of brown-skinned young men and women were lined up behind Chloe.
 Come to think of it, this is the first time I've met everyone from the dragon clan in person.

''Wow, it's a bit awkward. We were on a rampage, so everyone is in a rage at least once. Hey, Tuck, hide this.

 God, they all gave me a fright once.
 For now, I'm just going to hide Karuna from you guys so you can't see her.

That is Takumi, the future king of the Dragon Clan.
What a dignified ...... No, it's not dignified, but it does have a certain amount of dignity to it, on and off: ......

 Stop it. Stop trying to force praise. You'll just get sad.

"Takumi, are you okay?

 Sasha senses that I'm nervous and comes over next to me.

"Takumi will be fine. "Takumi's fine," she says.

 More bats come in and the three of us line up beside each other.

'Let's go, Takumi. Wake him up.
Yeah, I know.

 I nodded and looked at the meadow again.
 The huge figure was almost there.

'Let's get Rick back. And when we're done, we'll all have dinner together again.
Eat it. Eat it, too.

 Sasha, Batts, and Chihar all laughed.
 At that moment, a loud, angry voice rang out from the guild camp that was in line.

''Attack! A huge demon is coming towards us from behind at full speed!

 For a moment I thought it was a pincer trap set by Rick's camp, but I was wrong.
 That giant demon is ......

Baby mo!
"Boom!

 When you call its name out loud, it answers you with a cute voice that doesn't fit its huge body.

''Mukiyu!''

 And on top of that babimo: ......

 Alice was on a bit of a ride.
