Chapter 246

Hideyoshi felt somewhat dejected.

In their small group, they originally relied on Natsuki Subaru to liven up the atmosphere and lead him to become familiar with things.

It's a pity...

Kazuma was also somewhat silent.

Others didn't spend much time with Natsuki Subaru, but he was the best, and only, friend of this shut-in.

"Ohayou..."

A lively voice rang out.

"Sister, can you not always be so elusive?"

Yukino felt somewhat helpless.

"That's right, it's little Haruno."

The short-haired beauty walked in with her hands behind her back, smiling brightly.

Ah, it's this sinful woman~

This thought popped into everyone's mind simultaneously.

The person before them had recently earned the reputation of "The Scapegoat of This World" globally.

If no one was wrong, then it must be this woman's problem.

At least in the Sky Screen, nine times out of ten.

The Purge King Natsuki Subaru, Black Archer Yukino, and even that Kaguya who almost dragged billions of parallel worlds to their doom, all had this woman's hand behind them...

*Hiss~*

Everyone shuddered in unison and quickly scooted their butts to the Reverse Reverse Side.

Even the kind Nishimiya Shouko shrank her head weakly this time.

Pitiful, weak, and helpless.

"Hey, hey, hey, what is with those expressions?"

The beautiful woman waved the file in her hand, displeased. "Like this, I won't tell you about the speculation regarding that boy named Natsuki Subaru."

*Whoosh~~*

A figure like a green flash slid to Haruno's front in a standard *dogeza*.

"Vice President, please."

Kazuma said fawningly.

"Hmph~"

Haruno hummed triumphantly like a child and spread the file on the table: "Ta-da, this was something your big sister Haruno had a hard time getting from the officials, you know?"

Three minutes later.

"What, another world?"

Kazuma pounded the table in disbelief, revealing envy, jealousy, and hatred: "Bastard, so you ran off to another world to live out such and such shy and sweet daily life with beautiful girls?"

The dream of an otaku.

Kazuma's breathing grew heavy, his eyes turned red, and he clenched his fists, pounding the table *thump thump*.

Bastard.

Enjoying such a sweet and sour daily life without bringing your brother?

"This is?"

"Don't mind him, it's just the jealousy of an incompetent shut-in."

Kurumi calmly stabbed him, then frowned as she looked at the report.

Beneath this daily life, have so many people actually traveled to another world?

And even before the Sky Screen?

"Subaru, run!"

Lugnica Kingdom.

On an endless grassland, giant trees like walls of heaven covered dozens of miles.

The brown-haired girl in a blue dress pushed the boy in a tracksuit away, hard-pressed to launch an assault against the unicorn giant beast roaming the sky.

That was the White Whale.

One of the three great demon beasts.

A natural disaster roaming the world, an irresistible calamity.

"Felix, no!!!"

The boy, whose arm had been torn off and heart pierced, gnashed his teeth in agony, blood and tears streaming from the corners of his eyes.

Why?

Why did it turn out like this?

What happened to the sweet and sour otherworld romance daily life?

Unable to wipe his blood-stained vision, the boy flipped himself up and used all his magic power to activate reinforcement magic at maximum output.

Giving the girl rushing toward the sky maximum enhancement.

Even as the water magic user hailed as "Blue," Felix felt a heaven-turning change occur within herself.

She reached out and summoned.

A massive flood, like the raging waves of Nabishtim, roared down from the sky, smashing the unicorn giant whale—which was like a skyscraper—to the ground, instantly forming a spreading ocean.

"Water magic that originally had no offensive power, under such a terrifying scale, is also like a natural disaster..."

But Subaru, it's already too late...

Leaping out of the ocean with a hideous, bloody maw, Felix's petite body struggled against the gravity.

"No, I absolutely refuse to admit it!!!"

Natsuki Subaru roared and bellowed.

Why.

Why is it amplification magic?

Who will save Felix, who...

Amidst the extreme reinforcement of his tragic wish, a trace of scarlet radiance lit up.

In Natsuki Subaru's pleasantly surprised eyes, the Command Seal he had long ignored flowed with scorching light, burning his arm with intense pain.

But at this moment, Natsuki Subaru no longer cared about such things; he only looked with infinite expectation at the violent tornado rising up.

Connecting heaven and earth.

Under the gaze of the masses under the command of Duchess Karsten, who had come to hunt the White Whale on the grassland.

"Berserker!!"

Natsuki Subaru screamed at the top of his lungs.

"ROAR————!!!"

Violent scarlet lightning streaked across the sky.

A hulking figure, muscles as strong as mountain ranges, tore open the storm with its bare hands and stepped out, carrying a broad axe forged from temple foundation stone.

*Boom.

The ground seemed to shake.

The brawny arm swung the broad axe forward in a sweep.

*Boom!

Tearing through the storm, nine brutal axe shadows roared out, expanding with the wind, almost instantly growing to seem as if they connected heaven and earth.

Everyone clearly saw that the White Whale, one of the three great natural disaster demon beasts on the ground, seemed like a frightened stray dog, ignoring Felix, and retreated with a mournful cry.

But... it was meaningless.

Almost in the next instant, it was torn to shreds, its massive body forming a rain of flesh and blood in the sky, staining dozens of acres of land scarlet.

Brutal, wanton, domineering.

The first appearance of the otherworld Heroic Spirit silenced the entire scene; even the experts with quite a reputation in the hunting party were stunned at this moment.

Holy crap, what the hell is this?

This kind of absolute violence, this wanton venting, an individual like a brutal God King...

What is it?

A Demon King to oppose the Witch?

Wilhelm van Astrea, the biological grandfather of the Sword Saint, almost went insane.

He felt his worldview collapsing.

"Berserker...!"

Natsuki Subaru, clutching his severed arm, walked to the giant's Reverse Reverse Side as if in the "past," pressing his hand against the giant's muscles, which were like majestic mountains.

A trace of sadness revealed itself in his eyes.

"We are finally fighting Reverse Reverse Side by Reverse Reverse Side again."

It's a pity he had fared so miserably, crippled with a severed arm, his magic training wasted; he felt a bit ashamed to face his elders.

The setting sun was like blood.

The figures of the boy and the giant sat before the bloody ground turned from the White Whale's corpse, deeply imprinted in the hearts of the natives.

"On the continent, there will be another insurmountable wall..."

A mercenary full of vicissitudes sighed.

And compared to that Sword Saint Reinhard, the child favored by the world, this one was not bound by so many rules and regulations.

"Felix, it's great that you're okay!"

Seeing the petite beauty, Natsuki Subaru rushed up to hug her, crying until snot and tears bubbled up.

"Ah, thank you for your concern, Subaru."

Felix comforted him.

"By the way, after we go back this time, there is an important matter I must request of Duchess Crusch... *cough cough*, with Berserker here, I will definitely be able to protect you."

Natsuki Subaru's eyes revealed determination.

Anyway, I definitely can't go back; if I settle down and start a family here, Mom and Dad definitely won't blame me, right?

"But Subaru..."

Felix felt somewhat awkward, but continued anyway: "I am a male demi-human..."

Turning his head stiffly, Natsuki Subaru repeated dryly: "Male!"

"Yeah!"

Felix scratched her cheek awkwardly.

The girlish playfulness and the "meow" suffix when speaking were just habits...

*Snap.

At that instant, people seemed to hear something shattering into slag.

That was Natsuki Subaru's pure young heart.

"NO!!!!"

Natsuki Subaru, turned pale, slumped forward and knelt on the ground, tears streaming uncontrollably.

I want to... I want to go home...

The sweet and sour otherworld is all a lie.

Coffee shop.

Kazuma, kneeling on the ground in despair, seemed to feel a certain resonance across time and space.

Eh?

Could it be Subaru?

Damn it, he must have gotten tired of playing with girls and finally thought of me, his suffering brother.

I curse the girl you like to have a dick, and one bigger than yours, you bastard~~.

"What is he doing?"

Haruno was quite interested.

"Perhaps this is the friendship of boys."

Kurumi elegantly picked up her coffee and took a sip.

153. The principle of the Sky Screen, saving the world is not the work of one person

Time was like sand, flowing through the gaps in fingers without one even noticing.

In the repeating daily life that seemed no different to ordinary people, certain things gradually appeared in people's lives.

Happiness Villa.

"It's about time..."

Luo Shu held a white porcelain cup, took a quiet sip of water, and whispered softly.

It had been brewing for a month.

That fox should also be launching the grand ritual for her son, right?

Yes.

Everything Tamamo-no-Mae did had always been under his gaze.

But he had no intention of nipping the danger in the bud.

The people on this planet were still too lazy; they needed the danger that already existed in reality to stimulate and force them.

Otherwise, when the Old Gods awakened, when the evil spirits descended completely, when the otherworld invaded on a large scale...

Should he be the one running around putting out fires and cleaning up the mess?

Even with many Divine Authority Orbs, it wouldn't be enough to waste like that.

Is saving the world the work of one person?

If they can't even handle the early stages, if they can't even deal with local crises, then let them perish.

After all, the Emperor shouldn't be anxious while the Eunuch is dying of anxiety.

In the end, this was not his hometown anyway...

He looked at the sky outside the window with complex eyes, sighed, and turned back to look at the uninvited guests.

"So, Miss Shinomiya and Miss Yukinoshita, what brings you here?"

Since his identity was exposed so long ago.

They were the first to have the guts to come find him.

"Luo-kun, are you A-Shu?"

Before him.

The girl, whose black silk-like hair was draped down and whose temperament couldn't help but soften, asked softly.

Her ruby-like eyes, crystal clear, looked at him quietly.

Beside her.

Yukinoshita also pursed her lips in default.

She had met Shinomiya Kaguya on the way and couldn't help but follow.

This question had been hidden in the depths of her heart for too long.

"Well, about this question?"

Luo Shu picked up his wine glass and swirled it gently.

The Sky Screen was not entirely fictional.

It was a natural evolution after absorbing a trace of people's consciousness... he was only responsible for controlling the general direction.

In essence, that was them.

Just another experience, another life evolution of them.

The Sky Screen, in essence, was just a deduction of humanity under a specific worldview.

Under the gaze of those two beautiful pairs of eyes, Luo Shu smiled and said.

"There was never any such thing as a counterpart."

"That was just you and me on different time scales."

"In the blink of an eye, the Sky Screen has been over for almost a month."

Hikigaya Hachiman walked on the road with wandering eyes.
