Volume 5 Chapter 53 Intruder
"You, what are you doing to Sharla-samaaaa!"
Huh, what?
The man who appeared with a fierce expression had dark brown hair in three braids. Although he spoke fluent Japanese, he had white skin and a deep-featured face that clearly showed he was not Japanese.
He reminds me of the handsome guys from Asteris.
"You b*stard, you b*starddddd!"
The handsome man shouted, clearly losing his language ability.
"Excuse me, who are you?"
Listening to the handsome man's angry voice, I calmly asked back. I was too surprised by the unexpected events that had been happening since earlier, so I had no energy left to be astonished.
Sharla, who was standing next to the handsome man, answered my question.
"Oscar. He brought me here."
"Oh, I see. Thank you for taking care of Sharla."
"Thank you is not enough!"
Then what am I supposed to say?
It seems that Oscar was the one who helped Sharla find me. I can understand that because she has no travel skills whatsoever.
Oscar slowly raised his fist.
"I cannot entrust Sharla-sama to a man like you. Duel with me here, Yamamoto Yuusuke!!"
"Eh, no thank you."
"You coward! Don't you have any pride as a man?"
Even if he says that, I still feel hesitant to fight the person who brought Sharla here.
He may be handsome, but he seems like a nice person.
"W-Wait, Oscar-san, please calm down!"
"Let go, Mikoto. I cannot entrust Sharla-sama to such a indecent man. I will take her back to our country."
"Oscar-san, why did you come here then?"
As Oscar was being held back or dragged away by someone, a small figure appeared.
Is this person a woman? No, the bone structure looks like a man. They're delicate and have their hair tied up, so I thought it was a woman.
Now, they faced me in a state where it was unclear whether they were being detained or dragged away.
"Um, I'm Kushina Mikoto. I'm a fourth-ranked Anti-Demon Official. I was looking for you on Oscar-san's request, Yamamoto Yuusuke-san."
"Oh, I see. Thank you."
Didn't this person say Anti-Demon Official? Were they Tsukiko's colleague? They don't seem like they're capable of fighting, though.
It seems like it's about time to restrain Oscar. I don't want to have a duel, but if that's what he needs to calm down, then it can't be helped.
As I tried to step forward with that thought, Sharla walked towards Oscar first.
"Oscar."
"Sharla-sama, I will show you my strength in a duel. That's why——"
"Thank you for everything. I was able to meet Yuusuke because of you."
"Sharla, sama."
"I'm sorry. I belong to that person."
"..."
Oscar lost his strength and bowed down without saying a word.
Although it was impressive how Sharla calmed down the person's rage with just one word, I don't remember making Sharla mine. There seems to be a tremendous misunderstanding, but it doesn't seem like a good time to correct it, so I'll keep my thoughts to myself and endure it.
"Well, shall we go somewhere to calm down and talk? I think that's a good idea."
Kushina-san suggested, sensing the atmosphere in the room.
This chaotic and hellish atmosphere is certainly tough. Both of them have already stopped thinking.
First, I have to apologize to Tsukiko with all my might. But
'You're not dating anymore, so there's no need to worry.'
Devil Yusuke whispered, but Angel Yuusuke was shaking and said,
'No, that won't work. You need to rub your heads on the ground and die.'
It's a coincidence, but I feel the same way.
Just as I was thinking of changing the location and calling out to Tsukiko, something felt off.
Sharla and I exchanged magic power and prepared for battle. My dazed head immediately switched to combat mode, and we looked in the direction where Sharla and the others were coming from.
"Wh-What's going on?"
Tsukiko was the next to notice the abnormality. She also connected the parts she took out of her sleeve and assembled her spear.
I felt a faint fluctuation in magic power.
And we can sense the scale of the magic and the strength of the magician from that omen.
Before we knew it, a man was standing on the road.
With his light brown hair and handsome face, he looked like a young businessman wearing a high-quality suit. However, we realized that he was not just that kind of person.
He is a magician. Moreover, a person with considerable skill.
No, he may be wearing Earth's suit, but he's not from Earth.
"That reaction means you're the man called Hero. Even if you're a coward, you haven't weakened that much."
"..."
Is this guy a member of the Asteris human race?
He's not a demon. The quality of his magic power is different, and Demons didn't fighting during the day because of their poor fuel economy. That's why Jillzack Luiid, Tarim, and even Larkan chose the night.
If he is a member of the human race, he should be on the same side as us, but an unpleasant feeling clings to me like mud.
Should I suppress him or not?
As I hesitate, he took advantage of it and the man snapped his fingers and activated his magic.
"Spiritual Penetration Art - Release!"
A vast amount of magic power was assembled around the man, forming a delicate magic circle and painting over the world.
