Breakthrough with the Forbidden Master
Chapter 330: Intermission (Hunter Kid)

Chapter 330 – Intermission (Hunter Kid)

“Uoooooh, 【Fluffy World】! 【Fluffy Dancing】!”

“【Infinity Blade Cyclone】!”

Normally, I would have competed with Espie to show Brother my good side, but now we’re both struggling to resist.

But……

“Katsu!!!”

“”Huh!?””

Even though I created countless blades and Espie manipulated them and fired them at the opponent from all directions, all of the iron blades were shattered with a single yell.

“Are you done playing with toys?”

After fighting with Norja, even if only a little, I had a good taste of the power of the Six Supremacy.

I’m no match for them right now.

I knew that. I knew it, but even with Espie, there was such a difference between us?

What’s more, the opponent didn’t seem to be taking us seriously at all.

“Hah, hah, hah…… guh……”

As a Hunter, I had defeated many monsters and bounties, and I was more or less confident in my own abilities.

But that confidence was shattered. Ever since I met Brother, things like this have been happening.

But this time, it’s on a completely different level.

This……

“Then, either die and become rotting flesh…… or be eaten and become my flesh and blood…which is better?”

This is the strongest monster of the Six Supremacy. Hakuki, the White Fiendish Emperor.

“Ah… ah…… S, Slayer!?”

It’s no use…… regardless of injuries or anything like that…… my heart is already…… I can’t move…… I can’t resist…… I can’t stand up…… I’m going to be killed.

“Oh…… ugh, ah…….”

Killed!

I don’t think I’m afraid of dying right now…… in fact, there have been many times when I have played with my life, even thinking that it would be easier to die…… yet…… I’m scared……

“B….. Brothe……”

No way…… I don’t want to die―――

“Come now…… choose――― “

“If not for hunger, slay not, nor consume.”

“…… Oh?”

Huh?

“And despoil not the forests, nor the mountains, nor the sanctity of nature…… futile counsel, for those who ravage the world and disrupt the balance of life do not heed it.”

Suddenly, something hit my back…… huh?

“Kukeeeeeee!”

“Eh?! A, a bird!?”

A huge monster bird grabbed my back and flew straight into the sky…… huh?

“Slayer!? Huh? Why?”

What happened? Was I attacked and kidnapped by a bird? No, something is different.

On the contrary, it’s like the bird just saved me……

“Garururururur!!”

“Gaaaaaaaahhh!!”

“Grrrrrrrrr!!”

Huh!? What…… surrounding Hakuki, wolves, wild grizzlies, fire dragons, red panthers, and other ferocious beasts and monsters appeared one after another from the forests surrounding the village.

In addition to the monster bird that had me in its grasp, there were also giant birds with sharp claws also appeared one after another.

“This is …….”

“W-why? There are a lot of animals, ……

“Huh!? What is this?”

“Wh, at?”

Me, Espie, the demon named Aonii, the dark elf, and other ogres were confused by the sudden appearance of a swarm of beasts and monsters.

This is……

“Oh~~, truly…… it weighs upon me……”

“Hou……”

Was that him……

“Dear!”

“Chieftain!?”

The Chieftain surrounded Hakuki with many animals and monsters.

That person…… he said he could understand the language of animals, but… could something like this be possible?

But……

“Birds, while time lingers, swiftly gather everyone to――――”

“Did you think you could buy time or something?”

“Huh!?”

The next moment, a flash of white light spread across my field of vision.

I was blinded for a moment.

But in that instant, the bird that was holding me suddenly burst into pieces.

“Inai’s report raised the possibility that there was a monster tamer among the elves like Peach Boy, the legendary swordsman who was the natural enemy of the ogres, and it looks like it’s true.”

“Dear………….”

“Of course, while they may be a threat to the war and my men, to me they are nothing more than a bunch of lower races who have lost their wild pride and their fangs.”

And it’s not just the birds.

“Even if, as in the legend, you bring Cerberus and the Monkey Gods with you, they are no match for me!”

Dozens of the gathered animals and monsters turned into pieces of flesh in an instant, without even a resistance or a roar, turning the village into a sea of blood……

“Ah…….”

Being surrounded by so many numbers doesn’t mean anything to Hakuki.

Even the dragons and animals that were still alive have retreated instead of attacking him in anger.

They are afraid. In the face of such overwhelming power, it is hopeless.

Naturally…… It’s true that there are a lot of animals and monsters, but with the way things are, even with me and Espie…… we can’t do anything……

“So? What will it be? Will you be killed? Will you be eaten? Or will you be rounded up like lambs? The request was to kill all but the young females if they resisted.”

“………………”

“If you are caught, you won’t die for the time being.”

“Yet, a day may come when death grants sweet release…… yes? Huh…… forgive me… creatures of the wild”

“Hmm?”

What? The color of the Chieftain’s eyes has changed?

“By my doing…… forgive me…… I have caused you all to perish…… yet…… this one, at least…….”

“Are you prepared to die and do something yourself? Hou, what else can you do but be a monster tamer?”

“…… Given the circumstance… I must, for now, struggle onward.”

Will the Chieftain himself fight? Certainly, I have a feeling that there is something about the Chieftain.

Unlike the other elves, I didn’t think I could see or understand his power.

But……

“I see…… it’s not just any elf after all…… like Jamdi’el, who was a heretic among the Seraph tribes…… something that the ancients of Shiznautmy set up through atavism…… but so what then.”

It’s impossible. He’ll be killed!

“…… Even if I were to survive…… I cannot allow my wife or anyone else to face such indignity.”

“Dear!?”

“Everyone, right now――― “

And the Chieftain knows it too. He knows he can’t win.

But, at least trying to let everyone escape… even us… and he’s going to stall by himself!

“Are you ready? Okay… After I’m done with you, I’ll eat you along with Espie and Slayer, and turn you all into my flesh and blood.”

But it won’t work. Such a monster can’t even be stalled―――――

“Whose sister and brother are you trying to eat, perverted bastaaaaard?!”

Ah……

“Ah!?”

At that moment, in Hakuki’s blind spot, who was about to attack the Chieftain, Brother suddenly got up and delivered an uppercut.

“Big brother!?”

“Brother!?”

“Oh, ooh, young man, despite your dire state, you are safe …… gods.”

Brother woke up.

And then he punched Hakuki in the face… no…..

“Guh, h, ha…… hand …….”

Brother who hit him had a distorted face…… Hakuki, on the other hand, was completely unfazed. On the contrary, he was mocking us!

“Oooh, m, my fist is crushed…… how hard is he, this guy……

Brother was smiling wryly while holding down his fists.

I get it…… it was the same for me…… when I slashed at him with a sword made of iron, I couldn’t get a single scratch on Hakuki.

In front of that strong body, I was the one who took damage……

“Hehe, attacking me with bare fists, that’s quite the nerve he’s got. What’s more, that the bones of the fist he used aren’t broken shows some impressive training. That’s a pretty ugly look, but it’s no wonder he drove Aonii to such a state.”

“Yguh, astard …….”

“But so restless. I didn’t expect him to attack right after regaining consciousness without taking stock of the situation.”

“Shut it…… what a talkative ogre …… I don’t know what’s going on…… but who is this guy… he’s just as strange as Aonii… Huh? Huh? What was that?”

Brother, he’s so battered that if you poke him a little, he would fall over…… What’s more, he doesn’t even know who he’s dealing with……?

“What!? Really!? This guy!? Wait a minute, what?!”

“?”

Huh? But he was surprised on his own…… talking to himself…… what’s wrong with him? Did he notice Hakuki?

Well, either way……

“B, Big brother, don’t! He is on a different level! That guy…… is Hakuki, the strongest of the Six Supremacy!”

“Brother, don’t fight!”

Either way, there’s no way Brother can win with the state he was in.

“Ha, ha, ha…… yes…… that’s how I look at it. I’ve just ‘heard’ about it too…… but what’s with meeting another one of the six now? Jamdi’el, Paripi, Norja…… enough, I’ve had it with the Supremacy.”

“Hmm? Have you met all three?”

“Besides…… even if he’s great, even if he is a legend…… even if he’s the strongest in the Six Supremacy…… even if he’s stronger than the current Hero Hiro…… in the end, he’s ultimately weaker than the Great Demon King Tre’ainar! Well, I have to deal with it, I guess!”

“Oh? This one has pretty good eyes. What’s your name?”

Brother, won’t you run away? On the contrary, are you going to fight in such a state?

But it’s impossible! At least we……

“Nuungh!!

“Gaha―――――”

“Hmm?”

And at that moment.

“Brother!?”

B, Brother was hit from behind.

It was completely unexpected, and Brother fell to the ground again with a bang.

And it was not Hakuki.

“What’s wrong…… Aonii.”

“Ha, ha, ha……”

“It wouldn’t matter if you let it go on as it was, but what’s going on?”

The one who hit Brother from behind and knocked him unconscious again was the blue ogre named Aonii who stood on one leg.

How cowardly. While admitting defeat, how dare he!

“This is the only way…… besa ……”

“Hmm?”

“Great General…… this guy…… only this one…… you can’t kill him…… right now…… I can’t let you, besa.”

“What?”
