Clown’s note: I bet you’re sick and tired of hearing this, but: I’m sorry for the delay! Just finished writing a 17 page memorandum on granting a summary judgment in the 4th Circuit for a 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action… I’ll see if I can finish another chapter soon.

135. After the Incident

Leon’s subordinate, a knight clad in silver, Alrose suddenly appeared before me.

Without dallying even a minute after his arrival,

「Leon-sama is engaged in mortal combat with Kagurazaka Yuuki.

We beg for your assistance!」

He exclaimed.

Umm? Leon you bastard, you slipped out before we agreed on a formal alliance?

I mean, I don’t really have an obligation to assist, but…

Oh well.

I guess this gives me a chance to steal Leon’s prey…

Besides it would suck if Leon just kicked the bucket from hubris. And I wouldn’t want to let Yuuki slip away again.

That kind of dangerous guy needs to be killed as soon as possible.

I guess I might as well go.

「Alright. Lead the way」

「Ay! Right this…」

I decided to interrupt Alrose, and said

「Actually, I’ll just tap into your memories for a bit」

I entered his mind without waiting for approval.

And easily established a thought-link. He did consent to it… afterwards.

I then contacted Benimaru and Shion and had them begin Yuuki-subjugation preparations.

Even as I was communicating with them, I was already stepping through space towards the battlefield.

This is the first time I rely on others’ coordinates to make the jump.

Even though I am slightly anxious, I have faith in Raphael’s support.

Thus, without a single blunder, we successfully appeared in the skies above the battlefield. Shion was surely running late.

But I have Ranga in my shadows, and I can just summon Veldora if need be. First things first is to save Leon…

Is what I thought.

But by then Yuuki had already escaped. What. the. hell. Seriously?

Now then, these is the current state of affairs.

The land was deformed, reflecting a wonderful battle. Pieces of the mountain were gouged out, and the nearby forests rotted.

The grounds itself reeks of death, and a single (beautiful) crater was in the center of it.

The size of the crater basically tells me that this was a typical battle-manga style battle.

But wait… aren’t we over the Dwarf’s Kingdom? Though there’s a lot of rock between the top and the kingdom itself, with the battle at this scale I wonder if they caused any earthquakes.

By the looks of it, I can expect at least magnitude four? I can’t see below, but I guess there might be some casualties.

This isn’t a volcano, but if an earthquake is bad, people might have died.
