Chapter 27: Guardian of the forest

“Bumo~o~o~o~o! !” 

The axe that I swing is cutting through an empty space. I thought I hit her perfectly, but I did not hit anything.

Rather than hurt her, it is my arm that got scratched instead. Although the wound is shallow, blood certainly flows, soiling the earth.

… What’s the mean of this? 

Even if I can not understand, I has to keep swing my weapon. The battle is still going on.

However, no matter how many attempts I tried, my attacks will not hit. Only the opponent’s “invisible attack” is chopping my body little by little.

“You’re slow … for such a slow fellow you’re not worth living.”

“What …!!?”

There was a terribly joyful voice at my ear. She is riding. On my shoulder. Un-notice-able.

I get a cold feeling in my spine. When the girl on my shouder is attacking me on the side of my face, I fretted and let go of my weapon. 

Instant movement, it’s also a swift and accurate attack, you got to throw away weapon in reponse

“- Flowering.”

I was dealt with easily. 

“Gu, ku~tsu…!”

“Ah well ~ ♪ It’s fun, you are still alive with such a wound, if you die easy like a normal bull, it would be too boring!”

“Don’t toy with me … poacher!” 

I do not have time to think about the lost ear. 

I did not pick up any weapons. Because I thought that I was slow as I was swing an axe.

… Frustrating, today I’m only get beaten! 

I can’t even touch  Arge nee-san or the poachers in front of me right now.

Both are really fast, and if they can be hit, they are likely to be defeat with one blow. However, that blow are never happen.

Arge nee-san was a fast one. But this girl is as if she is a ghost. (TN: I will not say anything about Oswald’s comment because It will become spoiler)

“Frustration ? Flowering.”

Even I thought it was an attack, her body just shake lightly. And at the next moment – 

“What?”

– I am wounded.

An unknown attack. The forehead was cut shallowly. The right visibility is blocked by the flowing blood. 

Even she use it twice, I do not know the identity of that attack. From my wound I can tell that is was a slash type. The attack isn’t cut deep but sharply torn, the opponent seems disappear from my sight.

“Nuu …… Bu-mo !!”

Although I can not see her, I thought that if I was attacked she should still be close, and I swing my arm, kick the leg around random. 

My feet are hoof, the foot itself is a mass of muscle. Although it is durable, it will never be okay if it hits.

“It will be amazing. If you can hit me like that. … Flowering.”

At the end of that word, the other ‘s hearing ability was cut away. 

“—— !!”

I can not even hear the voice of my agony any longer.

Probably not just cut it, it’s an attack involving some kind of curse. It is certainly echoed to the flesh of Minotaur, insensitive to pain, and it is pulled out even to the eardrum just by being cut off.

“—-“

The other party is saying something, but of course I can not hear her. 

“—— !!!!”

The word something to do is not heard in the auditory sense. Still, I make words to inspire myself and run. 

I do not think that I will move fast. If you do not understand the identity of the opponent’s way of fighting, I can not think how to fight it.

The other party is obviously playing here. If you feel like that, she ought to be able to kill me easily. There is a real power difference.

… Still, I can not retreat!

There is something important behind me. The forest which we kept protecting from generations. 

The place where I decided that I will protect since I was a child.

My house. A place to protect. Where there are loved ones.

Birds and beasts voice, wind sound, water flow, warm sunlight through the sun, the activities of demons.

I will not let it get dirty. I will not ruin it.

This is our place. It is the world where we have survived.

Minotaurs other than me are decked but most of them are temperate, not suitable for battle. Kobolt and goblins are also cowardice. 

I am the only one who can fight properly. I have to defend, but I can not do it anymore.

“—-”

The smile of the opponent is shaken. It is also. Also, an invisible attack comes. 

“—- !?”

Silver color appeared suddenly in half of sight before being cut.

Where did it come from? No, have you not arrived before? She made her silver hair sway and turned her eyes toward me.

“—-“

Her little lip moved.

I can not hear her voice. Still I knew what the person said. It is because I have heard what I have seen.

That is the word I heard for the first time today.

A word that sounds like a singing voice that gently responds to a bird squeezing.

Even if you do not hear it, words that can be remembered indeed.

“You get hurt so painful, Pain, pain go away.”
