Chapter 54: Volume 2 - CH 29

Chapter 2-29. Encouragement


 

　The princess and Tenda began to get dressed as soon as they decided to move.

 

　I decided to go with them at once, but ... the excitement of these guys was amazing.

 

　The princess hugs me, and Tenda is just like his usual self ...

 

　Well, that's fine.

 

　To be honest, it's okay if I don't follow them, but ... I've become friends with them, and if the demons remember me, they'll do better hospitally when we meet again.

 

　For the time being, I’m okay with staying with other Oni villages.

 

"White snake-sama. It's a matter of movement, but we are walking on a slightly dangerous road. Normally, I would go to another Oni Village through the highway, but since we are being chased, we should take the road that is as inconspicuous as possible. It will pass. There may be demonic beasts, but please be assured that the path we are going to take doesn’t have that many demonic beasts. "

 

　Does that mean we are going through the woods?

 

　Or rather, I'm grateful for that.

 

　I think I can eat the prey I found along the way.

 

　Well, They are likely to be killed by the Onis without touching it ...

 

　After giving an explanation, Princess and Tenda left the room with the armors and weapons hidden in the closet, and a bag of luggage.

 

　I will follow them too.

 

　When we left the room, two Oni greeted me.

 

　Both wore purple armor, one with one black horn and the other with two red horns.

 

　The Oni with two horns looks like a female.

 

　The one-horned Oni looks like a man and is blindfolded.

 

　Whether or not he can see or not, he gets a pretty cool impression.

 

　The weapon they handle is like a rake, both of their gauntlets are designed to cover the elbows and come with sharp claws.

 

　It looks like a claw that sticks directly to the gauntlet, and when not in use, it can be raised toward the elbow.

 

　It's an interesting transforming weapon.

 

　The double-horned female Oni resembled a princess somewhere.

 

　Perhaps this person is the mother of the princess.

 

　However, her appearance is like a man.

 

　Wearing purple armor is not much different from the one-horned Oni next to her, but the clothes she wears are made from black leather.

 

　It looks poisonous when combined with the purple armor.

 

　Her neck is decorated with something like wolf fur, and the hem of the haori has many fangs hanging like a key chain. (* Haori is like a loose jacket kimono)

 

　Is the fangs come from the prey that she hunted ?

 

　When the female Oni noticed us, she raised one hand and greeted us lightly.

　Her movement conveys masculinity.

 

"My Lady. We are ready."

 

"OK. Let's go ...? Eh?"

 

　The Oni called ‘My Lady’ by Tenda found me and got stuck.

 

　The blind man next to her is also staring at me and stoned.

 

　He can see normally?

 

　I’m drawing emoticons ... "(= ω =) ノ".

 

"Err- Wh-what?"

 

　Uhh, can you stop looking at me like you just see something out of the world?

 

　Is the blindfolded Oni also can’t talk?

 

　I thought he was that kind of character, so I thought he wouldn't speak.

 

　Oops, this may be a bit of a prejudice.

 

　Let's change my mind.

 

"My Lady, Uchikage. I know that you want some explanation, but let’s move on."

 

"E- eeeeh….. Yeah, sure….."

 

"Mother!"

 

"... ha! Yeah! Speak with a straight manner! Uchikage! There are other Oni you know?"

 

"Everyone should be ready to leave. We shall take a leave soon. We've decided to go to another Oni village that we found earlier. The enemies won't find us there."

 

"Uchikage, how many enemies?"

 

"About 200"

 

　He was frozen for a moment, but ... I think he is okay with it.

 

　So, it seems that this double-horned woman is the mother of the princess.

 

　Is the one-horned blind man her brother or Tenda’s brother?

 

　I can’t tell from his face alone because of the blindfold.

 

　I don't know if I should ask or not.

 

　After some discussion, we left this house and joined the other Onis.

 

　It seems that the formation has already been formed and they have been waiting for us.

 

　They move fast.

 

　However, when I appeared, the place became a fuss in an instant.

　No wonder.

 

　The white snake, which was only told in folklore, appeared in front of them.

 

　Tenda works to calm the Onis.

 

　However, the Onis still seem to be cheering for something.

 

　Hey ... I think it's not good to make noise ...

 

　You guys are being chased for the time being, right?

 

　I think it's better to be a little more aware of their situation.

 

"Awawawa"

 

　Princess, please don't make a pitiful voice.

 

　Is she not used to this kind of situation?

 

"Sigh ... it can't be helped ... I thought I'd tell them about White snake-sama on the way ... but maybe I should have done it here. Uchikage. How soon will the enemy come here?"

 

"About two days. I'm sure it's better to hurry, but I think there are some people who have itchy to hear the explanation about White snake-sama."

 

"... I bet you also want to hear it too."

 

"Aye"

 

　She is really straightforward.

　Tenda is a little surprised by her reaction.

 

　Tenda told everyone about how I am with him, and in an instant the place became quiet.

 

　I really want you to make use of that unity in other places.

 

"As you can see, White snake-sama came here and accompanied us. As the tradition says, White snake-sama understands our words. But there was something a little different from the tradition. The White snake-sama we know will curse us if we angered it or do bad things to it, but that is wrong. The real White snake-sama is very kind. It won't curse us, but be modest with him. "

 

　Ah, Tenda, he hid that I could use recovery skills.

 

　Well, the more people who know this, the higher the probability of information leakage about my skill.

 

　Perhaps Teda is concerned not to bother me as much as possible.

 

　I should thank him for that later right?

 

　However, thanks to that, I can no longer easily use the recovery skill for the Onis.

 

　He is already pretty worn out and looks tired ...

 

　Yes. If the situation becomes dangerous, I'll help them.

 

　I think Tenda will be fine with that.

 

"I have something to tell you before we leave. Listen."

　Suddenly Tenda became quiet with a serious expression.

 

　The Onis who sensed the atmosphere became quiet and waited for Tenda to open his mouth.

 

"We lost a lot in this war. We lost our homes, our families ... even our hometowns. Now we only have this many people ... I know everyone's morale is down. It must have been painful because we lost most of our people, but we’re glad that they have protected us this far. Thank you. "

 

　Tenda bowed deeply to the Onis.

 

　The Onis were watching the scene with their mouths open, but they said to Tenda, "No, we should be the one who is thankful to you!" And "Please raise your head!" There is no sign of anger in them.

 

　It seems that the head wife and princess were surprised at the scene in front of them.

 

　When Tenda finally raised his head, He knelt at me this time.

 

"But in the meantime, White snake-sama came out in front of us. In the tradition, the fact that the White snake-sama appeared in front of the Onis like us means that White snake-sama protects our well-being. But don't get me wrong. The White snake-sama just watches over and doesn't do anything by himself. Our ancestors have overcome the situation with their own power. Now then. Everyone! We're definitely not allowed to bother the White snake-sama's help! But please protect us for a while! I beg for you! "

 

"" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" ""

 

"White snake-sama. We will be in your care for a while."

 

　Perhaps their excitement was high, the air around Tenda was tingling.

 

　Following after Tenda, the other Onis began to kneel at me.

 

　I don't know what to do in a case like this, but since I'm a snake, I don't have to worry about my facial expression being read.

 

　Tenda … This guy is using my name to boost their fellows morale.

 

　I'm not in a bad mood, so that's fine.

 

　But after all, this guy may be a human resource who can become the next lord.

 

　I'm sorry that I thought I was going to have a weak encounter.

 

　I'm kinda surprised when Tenda said, "I'll take care of them for a while."

 

　Well, I said I'd follow them, but I didn't say I'd be with them forever.

 

　Does Tenda know that too?

 

　No, I haven't made any promises like that. In terms of meaning, he may be talking about untill we reach other Oni Village.

 

　He said we are going to take a dangerous route.

 

"Haa-"

 

"What happened to the princess?"

 

　A child who can't read the air looks like he is pissed off.

 

　Somehow I understand why he is asking something like that.

 

　I don't mean that I also can't read the air by just looking at the princess, but ... there's also some Onis with a slightly disturbed expression.

 

　We'll understand it soon.

　I don't know if it's because of that, but the air emitted by Tenda has subsided.

 

　I feel like something is wrong with his skill.

 

"I will take care of the White snake-sama as a shrine maiden!"

 

"Eh !? Ah ... uhhmm. I see. Sure then ..."

 

　Hello princess?

 

　Hello~.

 

　I know what you are going to do !

 

　You want to monopolize me, who is special to your tribe!

 

　Is the rest of them fine with that! ??

 

　You see, Tenda is mumbling something!

 

　He can't do anything just because she is a princess, right?

 

　Even if she can get your opinion so easily it doesn't mean ──.

 

"Isn't it okay?"

 

　The head 's wife! !!

 

　Don't spoil your daughter!

 

　You're the last person who can opposes your daughter!

 

　Did she know that if she approves of princess opinion, she would have to convince everyone! ??

 

　Ah ... it's no good.

 

　Everyone is already in the give up mode.

 

　Hey, their morale is down. It's going down all the down the earth.

 

　…… Sigh, it can't be helped …… I'll go around and cheer them up later.

 

"I did it! Thank you, Mother!"

 

"You're welcome, but you should  protect it, okay?"

 

"Yes!"

 

　The princess is jumping happily.

 

　Tenda and Uchikage seem to be in trouble with their hands on their foreheads.

 

　Perhaps he had been facing the princess's selfishness for a long time.

 

　I want to pay homage to the princess who can pass herself in such a crisis.

 

　But ... What is it? On the contrary, I feel like I'll be the one who protects her instead?
