Chapter 37.1

 

Goubayas.h.i.+ turned to a.s.sist Ok.u.mura and Uozumi who were struggling. Kneading the golden fighting spirit, he kicked and smashed the hydra head that the two people were pinning down with utmost effort. With almost the same timing, Kensaki lopped off one head with her prided single slash.

“Aye aye, cla.s.s rep!”

 

For the cla.s.s that were moping around because of Was.h.i.+o’s dead, the news that Goubayas.h.i.+ had returned was completely a good news. There was also the fact that the news was proclaimed by Nekomiya and Kaminari with a little dramatization about his activity on the deck, and the result was that the fear of death inside some of the students’ hearts were considerably suppressed.

 

 

He heard a pretentious voice and a figure of a black cat wearing leather boots showed up on the deck.

“No problem. I came back for that reason.”

It was unknown how much he understood such an intension of Ryuzaki, but Goubayas.h.i.+ nodded with his arms crossed.

Kaoruko who was acting together with Goubayas.h.i.+ could use recovery magic as well but her shadow couldn’t be found anywhere.

He heard a little about what happened on the deck from Gofunkawahara. Kyousuke went out to the deck in order to help with the battle and tried to combine with Rin but it appeared that he couldn’t do it. Starting with Was.h.i.+o’s death, various troubles had occurred and caused Kyousuke to receive mental damage, or so it seemed to Ryuzaki, but he didn’t understand it accurately.

“It’s okay. There doesn’t seem to be anything.”

 

~ Part 1 ~

“That’s right. Anyone would have their worries. We’re in our p.u.b.erty.”

 

“I see.”

 

“Really…”

Putting the empty teacup on the table, Goubayas.h.i.+’s facial expression became a little confused.

“That’s fine. I think form is important in these kinds of thing.”

No way, I didn’t think that the word p.u.b.erty would come out from Goubayas.h.i.+’s mouth. Ryuzaki grandly spout out his tea and choke.

 

Ryuzaki looked at Goubayas.h.i.+’s appearance. It wasn’t just Ryuzaki alone. Kensaki and Ok.u.mura group, as well as Zeku were also staring at the man who had returned.

This girl is still as troublesome as ever. Still, I’m grateful that she will move for us.

“Goubayas.h.i.+, won’t you chant sutra?”

 

Therefore, he wanted Utsurogi to show a lively figure again if it was possible. Watching Ryuzaki looking up at the ceiling, Goubayas.h.i.+ laughed.

Immediately after that, Ryuzaki saw Goubayas.h.i.+, who was right beside him, took an unthinkable action.

“Nekomiya, I ask for recovery magic. The top priority is Zeku.”

“That’s important. Hold a memorial service for the deceased and say farewell. It’s a necessary ceremony in order for humans to move forward.”

 

Ryuzaki shelved all of the emotions welling up inside and rebuilt his posture. He looked at Goubayas.h.i.+, and then turning his eyes over to Zeku, whose body was laid down on the deck. How long would the endurance of an ogre can hold? As long as he believed in the memo Selena left behind, he thought that there should still be some leeway. But still, it wasn’t okay to just leave him rolling around for a long time.

“It seems that a good deal of different things have happened.”

 

“She has also faced her inner self and acquired new power just like me, so she shouldn’t be caught if it’s just running away.”

This is not a joke. [Notes]

Thinking about what to say after this, he was hesitating whether it was okay to inform his various cla.s.smates in this place. As Ryuzaki was pondering a little, Sugiura who guessed the situation clapped her hands ∗pan pan∗, 『yes yes, since everyone is a hindrance, let’s go out—!』 , while saying so, she clear out the people.

We are humans, we may return to our world someday. In order not to forget that thought, Ryuzaki had been maintaining various forms of conducts inside the cla.s.s. Things such as «cla.s.s meetings in a different world», the name of «heavy cruiser branch school». And then treating Selena and Zeku as transfer students, a.s.signing attendance numbers to them, all of these were done with that intent in mind.

Now that Was.h.i.+o had died, the most important thing was to send him off as «humans». This was for everyone in the cla.s.s to accept Was.h.i.+o’s dead and bid farewell to his soul. For that sake, he wanted to arrange the outward appearance as much as possible. [Rants]

“You got bigger, Ryuzaki.”

 

“…Did I say something strange?”

“That guy should have help you after I was gone. I want to thank him.”

 

 

Said Goubayas.h.i.+.

 

“Uozumi, is your sister okay?” [Reminders]

 

“Inform Kuremori. Engine at maximum, we’re leaving this valley at once!”

“Are, are you … Goubayas.h.i.+…?”

“Ou!”

 

“I can still last. Goubayas.h.i.+, you’ve just returned but I’ll have you work.”

 

 

 

Ryuzaki let his nails bite deeply into the hydra head and drove in a breath a point-blank range. The hideously burnt head that was suffering in agony, was captured in his big jaws and crunched.

 

“Speaking of which, what is Utsurogi doing?”

“I understand. Gofunkawahara!”

Goubayas.h.i.+ said that he had been inflicted a serious injury by the p.a.w.n, then he was sheltered and received medical treatments by the human knights for about 10 days, after which he couldn’t see Kaoruko anywhere.

 

“That’s right, Goubayas.h.i.+.”

“Tomorrow, we’re going to hold a funeral for Was.h.i.+o.”

One left. Ryuzaki glared into the fog but the valley was quiet to the point of being ominous. ∗Zuru, zuru∗, sound like something crawling could be heard from starboard of the heavy cruiser branch school, and simultaneously, the hydra heads abandoned on the deck slipped and fell as if they were being dragged by something.

 

 

 

 

After promptly giving out instructions, Ryuzaki fiercely bit at one of the attacking head. Similarly, Goubayas.h.i.+ also caught one of the heads with both his arms. Gofunkawahara instructed the goblins to be ready for the surprise attack of the last snake head.

Nekomiya with her cat ears stretching tensely muttered.

While drinking the herbal tea that was served in a teacup, Goubayas.h.i.+ raised his face.

Goubayas.h.i.+ was a son of a temple. I’m not saying I’m a young monk outside the gate, but since I made an effort in ascetic training together with my father and older brothers, I should be able to roughly chant sutra? Thought Goubayas.h.i.+.

 

 

 

Goubayas.h.i.+ suppressed the head with one log-like arm and then converged the golden energy rising from his body into the other free arm. The energy compressed in his right arm was emitting radiance quite like the sun. That scene burned very strongly into the view on the deck of the heavy cruiser branch school covered with fog.

Goubayas.h.i.+ easily said.

 

“Ahh, it’s me.”

Ryuzaki said so just as the first stage of the story was completed.

What on earth happened to Kaoruko who should be traveling together with Goubayas.h.i.+?

 

“Perhaps there is a cause. Depending on that cause, even if the problem itself is nothing special, its root maybe deep. The problem is treated as serious more than it actually is and things will remain as is. Especially for the type like Utsurogi.”

“There are people who have no individuality, there are also people who prioritize others too much. The problem Utsurogi is carrying doesn’t seem very special to me.”

“Really!”

Ryuzaki wanted to shout in joy, he also wanted to cling to Goubayas.h.i.+ in tears. He also had many stories piled up, and honestly speaking, he also had many resentful complaints. If it was Ryuzaki of a month ago, he might have easily said it.

“Goubayas.h.i.+, what do you think is Utsurogi’s character?”

There was one of Goubayas.h.i.+’s favorite motto, 『Observe carefully a youth you haven’t met for three days』. Ryuzaki, as his friend, intended to grow without deviating from that statement, but it seemed that the same thing applied to Goubayas.h.i.+ as well.

 

And trying to hide his embarra.s.sment, he mention the thing about Ryuzaki’s body.

“According to Utsurogi and Rin’s story, the only one being kept captive by Red Moon is Kogane.”

Kyousuke prioritizes others way too much, said Ryuzaki.

“Feel like it ran away.”

Goubayas.h.i.+ asked after looking around and round the dining room. Naturally, the figure of Utsurogi Kyousuke wasn’t there.

“Cla.s.s rep? You’re all b.l.o.o.d.y though?”

“I can certainly recite sutra from memory to some extent…, but it may not be the same sect as Was.h.i.+o’s.”

Ryuzaki averted his gaze a little.

“Goubayas.h.i.+, Kaoruko is…?”

Goubayas.h.i.+ who was listening to the story seriously, only interposed when it came to the matter of the red winged devil.

 

Sighing, Goubayas.h.i.+ started the story again.

 

 

“They’re coming!”

“Ahh, there were a lots of fun things, as well as sad things.”

Is this guy really the same age as me? This question that Ryuzaki always felt whenever he talked to Goubayas.h.i.+, once again appeared inside his mind. But even that thought was nostalgic now.

Episode 37 — For the Sake of Looking Forward

 

At the same time Kensaki shouted, four of the hydra heads plunged at this place all at once.

“Rather than getting separated, I let her escape during the battle with Red Wing.”

There might be people who would rebuke them for doing things in this way. However, Ryuzaki thought that a «funeral make-believe» is necessary.

 

After suddenly taking a gesture similar to a salute, Gofunkawahara ran out of the deck.

 

 

“Well, it’s just common sophistry though. But if it was said by the easily frightened Kaminari, there’s no way I can just stay idle. I thought.”

“I was scolded by Kaminari. If you have time to blame yourself, think about what you can do for Was.h.i.+o.”

“Is that so, Hakuba is immobile as well…”

“Ahh, there are many things to talk about, including that matter. Let’s organize our information for a moment.”

 

 

“Kagoi and Kensaki, Ok.u.mura and Uozumi, each group takes one!”

 

 

For Pete’s sake, even while answering such, he was honestly happy about those words.

The moment he struck with that right arm, that energy exploded. The hydra head that Goubayas.h.i.+ was in charge of easily scattered away whether that fist did touch it or not, the impact resulting from that shook the heavy cruiser branch school. The after-effect of that explosion attacked the other heads as well, and naturally, Ryuzaki had also stumbled a few steps forward.

With this, the burden that Utsurogi had been carrying up until now would become one less.

 

Can we defeat it?

 

“It’s no good. Masuyo is completely down now.”

“Mu?”

Goubayas.h.i.+ crossed his arms without making any slight movement, but the energy rising from his body was increasing its momentum all the more.

 

 

 

 

That reliable man, Goubayas.h.i.+ had come back. But unlike before, he didn’t have any intention to put all the burdens of the cla.s.s on this guy’s shoulders any more. The excessive work could be done with everyone little by little. Even this guy wouldn’t be able to take on all of that burden alone.

The hydra’s heads revealed vigilance before the sudden intruder. While the tongues of the remaining five heads slithered, they withdrew into the fog in order to take some distance.

“Ryuzaki, you have become bigger after all.”

This side had mountains of things they had to report to Goubayas.h.i.+. Not just Was.h.i.+o’s death, but also about the kidnapping of Kogane, the contact with humans. The thought that the cla.s.s was harboring, how they started to move, and then being shaken.

 

 

 

It was Nekomiya Miya the Cait Sith. Behind her, Kaminari Totoha the Thunderbird suddenly peeked out her face from the shadow of the cabin.

“Thank you, Goubayas.h.i.+.”

 

Crossing his arms, Goubayas.h.i.+ silently nodded. While Kensaki put away her sword, she timidly asked.

The sound of that voice hadn’t changed at all from the time he last heard it one and a half month ago. It was strong, deep and full of dignity, it was none other than the voice of Ryuzaki Kunihiro’s best friend, Goubayas.h.i.+ Genshuu. The golden energy rising from his body showed that he had overcome many hards.h.i.+ps and s.h.i.+fted to Phase 2.

“In the direction of our route?”

 

 

“Really, Was.h.i.+o is…”

“Mu…”

 

“The most necessary thing in mourning for the deceased is condolence. My sutra chanting is clumsy but if it can become an impetus for gathering condolences of the cla.s.s, I shall undertake this task.”

 

 

What was on Ryuzaki’s mind was that no user of recovery magic was in this place. This would inevitably force them into a worse and worse situation when fighting a formidable enemy.

“Nekomiya, you’re cool already?”

When he heard that story, Goubayas.h.i.+ firstly closed his eyes and then offered a silent prayer. What kind of deep emotions were conflicting behind that expression? It was something that couldn’t be understood just by looking from outside.

Don’t use the deceased to play make-believe. [Notes]

“HAAaaaa……————!”

 

To Ryuzaki’s enquiry, that ogre slowly nodded.

“How should I put this, most recently, when I look at Utsurogi, I become terribly anxious, or should I say…”

 

Several students came to see the information exchange with Goubayas.h.i.+ that was being held in the dining room.

“Ladies and gentlemen, I have kept you waiting, have you been looking for me?”

 

That guy was no more than a mere p.a.w.n, and the appearances of a Knight and a Bishop were also confirmed, finally, when the story reached the point where Was.h.i.+o was killed by the aforementioned Bishop, as expected, even Goubayas.h.i.+ would opened his eyes wide in shock.

Nekomiya shrugged her shoulders at Ryuzaki’s question. For an instant, Goubayas.h.i.+ frowned at the change in the atmosphere but he didn’t say anything.

And then Goubayas.h.i.+ said that he and Kaoruko had agreed beforehand on the route to take in case of separation. Kaoruko, using her Phase 2 ability to enlist monsters as allies starting with imps, should be heading east.

He had been feeling a sense of discomfort from Kyousuke for quite some time. Although he might have been worrying too much but Kyousuke’s individuality was too thin.

 

Goubayas.h.i.+ said that he and Kaoruko had battled against a monster called Red Wing several times and they were chasing after it. And as the story progressed, they came to the conclusion that the monster called Red Wing seemed to be a p.a.w.n of Blood of Red Moon.

 

 

Ryuzaki shouted while Nekomiya rushed up to him and healed his wounds with her 《Shadow Heal》.

“It is very similar to yours.”

That was an overly optimistic observation, but with the current situation, it would be much better to think that way instead of lamenting based on uncertain informations.

So, speaking of the cla.s.smates’ concern, it was about Kaoruko.

“Fuun!!”

 

 

“Utsurogi now is a little…”

“N–no, sorry…”

“As for difference, you have self-confidence while Utsurogi don’t. It looks like that to me.”

 

 

 

 

Ryuzaki canceled his 《Complete Dragonization》 and confirmed his wounds again. A part of his scale peeled off and blood was flowing. But well, injuries about this much was a usual thing. Not that it didn’t hurt but there were many things more important than that, and Nekomiya was also healing his wounds at the moment.
