Half-elves Fall in Love

Chapter 292: Mountain Air Kingfisher

That day, I was to take Dianne, Laila, Maia, General Kingfisher, 10-man captain Reverse Hair and 100-man special duty commander Becker and Anzeros as my escort to patrol the hut Dianne had built in the fall.

“Point 5, all clear……is this place confirmed?”

“Point 7 is deeper in place. I’d rather send people there than focus on this one”

“It’s close enough that I’d like to use it as a meeting point and a solid place to sleep”

“That’s a good point……Kingfisher, what do you think?”

“Kua? Ah, yeah, you’ll have to ask Reverse Hair about that”

“After all you’re a bird”

“You Becker, do you want to do it!? You think you can go up in the sky and fight Birdman!?”

“Just calm down. And if you’re going to be called a general, you should at least know what you’re doing. Reverse hair is a 10-man captain and he’s still only capable of direct command”

General Kingfisher was admonished by Dianne.

“Because I have no idea about strategies or difficult things……I wonder if I can become a 100-man commander”

“Up to 100 people are still in actual command. Or rather, Dianne, who has such a high perspective even though she is a 100-man commander, is abnormal”

For the time being, if you don’t decline, you will be comforted by Anzeros, who was sitting in the chair of a 100-man commander.

“Well, Captain Dianne had accepted all the promotion offers, she would have been a general or marshal by now”

100-man commander Becker crossed his legs and put his hands behind his head. It was difficult to make such a stretchy gesture in a crowded carriage, but there was plenty of room in the carriage now.

“I know what I am. I can manage a few troops, but I can’t command a large army, not even close to my father. It would be better for the army if I remain a 100-man commander”

“Didn’t you say that it would be a hassle to find an arranged marriage and all that when you get higher in rank?”

“That’s true, too”

Dianne-san wards off my tsukkomi lightly.

“I wish I had stopped with being a 100-man commander……no, I’m okay because there were many other baton-wielding guys in the third west”

General Kingfisher sighs from his beak.

I don’t know why Master Ashton pulled you out for this mission of all places”

“Because I’m a birdman, right? At least I cant get lost”

“Ah……well, you can’t do that with Amatsukima”

“He won’t die if you leave him alone, but if he goes missing, it’ll take years to find him”

General Kingfisher and 100-man commander Becker talk about strangers and sigh a little. You’d think they were a dog and a monkey, but they get along surprisingly well.

“Amatsukima……is that iron man Amatsukima?”

Anzeros asks in a slightly nervous voice.

“It’s not an iron man, it’s a cockroach”

“If it’s a cockroach, just hit it and it dies”

The two began to tell sh*t.

“……Who’s that?”

“Y, You don’t know……well, Andy’s all about crossbows, so if you’re not interested, you don’t know”

“?”

“Overknight Iron. It can be punched, kicked, cut, crushed, boiled and burned without dying, Special Duty General Ryo Amatsukima.

Anzeros’ words had reached the realm of being a bit nonsensical to listen to.

“……What kind of devil?”

100-man commander Becker and General Kingfisher laughed at the words I muttered.

“I’m not sure if it’s a holy beast or a moving corpse”

“Well, even they have a little more time before they come back to life, don’t they?”

Is that so? Speaking of Master Knights and Overknights, I have the impression that they are messy, ignoring the concept of living things. But can I ignore that much?

“……Is there such a person?”

When I turned the water on Dianne, she shrugged her shoulders.

“I don’t see how it’s possible. For some reason, he never seems to die. He’s risen to the rank of Overknight with just his immortal body, so it must be true”

……I wonder what kind of person he is. Instead of staying Overknight I mean, I’ve seen quite a lot of things, but the world is still beyond my imagination.

-

“This hill”

The hill that Dianne looked over was a shack that was still beautiful despite the fact that it had been built many years ago.

“I’d like to build a log fence here……and a stone wall if possible. If we make good use of the terrain, I don’t think it will take much effort to build a good enough fort”

“You know a lot about fort building, Reverse Hair”

“I’ve been studying it”

You’re serious. Very serious. Compared to that, what is the lightness of General Kingfisher and Rennesto’s 10-man captain.

“That’s why……I’m doing my best so I hope you can stop calling me like the small fish A”

……Emm, his name is……emm.

“Well, it’s okay if you don’t know! If you care about the details, the proud reverse hair will be bald”

General Kingfisher slapped him on the shoulder with a bang. Shaking his hand, 10-man captain Reverse Hair bowed deeply.

“I look forward to working with you! I am Fernando Wrigley, 25 years old! Please take care of me! Feel free to call me Wrig if you like!”

……It seems that he’s really tired of everyone calling him Reverse Hair

“It’s fine, just Reverse Hair”

“Hey”

100-man commander Becker and General Kingfisher spread their hands together. You guys are really close, aren’t you?

“What would you call me if I got wet in the rain? What will you do if I change my hairstyle? Don’t talk to me like I’m a man with nothing but hair! I’m working so hard and you’re treating me like crap!”

“Don’t get mad, Wrigley. I’m joking. Come on”

“That’s right, Reverse Hair. You can cut it if it gets in the way. As long as I have your reverse hair on my mind, I’ll call you reverse hair”

“That’s not good enough! I’m telling you, bird!”

“Oh!? Are you trying to start a fight!? You think Becker’s boys are gonna fight me!?”

“Stop it, Wrigley. He’s stronger than you think. And this idiot doesn’t do it on purpose, he usually forget people’s names right away”

“Kua! You’re both so rebellious! I will show you the difference in the General’s rank from now on, Ace Knights”

General Kingfisher shakes his fist. Reverse Hair who pulls out his sword with teary eyes. 100-man commander Becker, unknowingly hiding behind us and ready to see.

“Ho, Dianne. Do we have to stop him?”

“If Kingfisher loses, I’ll take care of him. Let’s make a drawing, give me parchment and ink, Laila”

Dianne begins to draw on the table without paying any attention to it. Did she think that she couldn’t arbitrate because it was too crazy? ……It was just awkward to say that I had somehow reverse hair.

“Go easy on him, Kingfisher”

“What the hell are you looking at? Come on, I’ll knock you out, you idiot!”

“I’m gonna cut you up! I told you to come, so don’t complain later! You’re not guilty of dueling, General!”

10-man captain Reverse Hair held up his shortsword with a grudge. The next moment, the figure disappears. ……He’s fast. Is he a type that specializes in speed, like 100-man commander Becker? When I think about it, he next appeared behind him, diagonally above the General. From there, swing down the sword with one hand from the top toward the deep blue feathers of General Kingfisher. However, it was the ground that the sword smashed.

“!?”

“Your blood thirst is bare, se!”

General Kingfisher has changed his position by several meters in an instant. He thrusts one hand into the ground, and from a deep crouch, strikes his wings with a flash of speed and in an instant is at top speed. He was slamming his knee into Wrigley-kun’s stomach at a speed that his eyes could not follow.

“GGu!?”

“You can praise yourself……for not letting go of your sword”

With Wrigley-kun staggering and pulling his sword, General Kingfisher is already in a cool arm-folding pose on a nearby tree branch.

“The next time you start slashing, you’ll faint before you can fully swing your sword”

“U, Uu……”

Wrigley-lun clenched his sword and gritted his teeth. Pooh, when General Kingfisher tried to laugh with his nose, 100-man commander Becker appeared behind him, squeezing his wings and his arms and moonsault dive to the ground.

“Kukee!?”

“Oh, come on, Kingfisher. It’s your fault for tinkering too much”

“Yo, You’re going to let your subordinate have an opening so you can get away with it!?”

“If that’s the case, it’s your fault, you stupid bird”

“Kukee!! Kaa!!”

100-man commander Becker, who unknowingly ties up General Kingfisher, who is fluttering and rampaging, with a rope.

“All right, Wrigley. You can play with his beak”

“I, I’ll do it! Really I’ll do it!?”

“Kuaa! Kuaa! I’ll kill you!”

We moved on to a silly skit and Wrigley-kun began to draw drill patterns with white pigment on Kingfisher´s pointed beak with great joy. I guess he was depressed. ……And next to me in harmony, Anzeros was breaking out in a cold sweat.

“……10-man captain Wrigley, faster than me……it wasn’t a waste of movement, but it’s so easy to handle……”

“……Is he that strong, that General?”

“I’m not going to be able to stand up to him”

The white flag.

“It’s rare. You’re not going to be able to beat Black Arm, are you?”

“……He is by far the fastest and best without any tricks. I can manage against the type of swordsman who relies on his backhand, but……”

Anzeros seemed to be impressed by his overwhelming ground power. Dianne smiles while looking around on the carriage, holding the drawing in her hand.

“That’s the real 『Most Elite Master Knight』. ……Don’t look away, Anzeros. If you’re going to protect Andy, you may eventually have to contend with……something as skilled as that”

“Yes”

……What are you fighting for? What am I going to be fighting? I’m a little nervous. I wonder what Dianne and Anzeros see in my future.

“Don’t worry. I’ll protect you”

Perhaps sensing my anxiety, Maia, who had been silent until now, squeezes my hand. That makes me feel a little better. ……That’s true. Suddenly I remember meeting that devil in this unknown demon territory. It’s no wonder what I’m fighting for.

——————————————

But still.

“Kuaa! Kuaーーー!!”

“It’s annoying, the movement of this beak……hey Wrigley, do you have the glue?”

“No way!! Ju, Just a little, that’s……can I do it!?”

“Kuaa!?”

“It’s Kingfisher anyway”

“O, Of course it is, he’s General Kingfisher!”

How far did you let your depression build up, reverse hair……no 10-man captain Wrigley.
