Volume 4 - CH 21
Act 4-21: Extremely Dangerous Observation Job(Side: Ramunera)
The back figure of the monster had finally vanished from their line of sight, one of the Empire’s Six generals, Ramunera fell on her knees, heaving a really deep sigh of relief. That show just how tense she was a while ago. She then coughed violently and vomited the content of her stomach on the ground due to relapse from that overwhelming fear.
「What the… hell is that?」
Kirky, the same Empire’s six general as her had barely managed to squeeze those words as he fell to his knees. The current Empire’s Six Generals had received the special name from the Emperor himself. And her name was War Princess. She had the abilities and skills rivalling the paladin from the hero party in terms of personal combat. And this was the very first time in her entire life in which she showed such unsightly state unbefitting of War Princess’ name.
「Maybe he’s a monster who quit being a human, just like Pho-san.」
She gave such a reply as she wiped the traces of vomit on her lips.
Hearing that, Kirky braced himself to stand, walking toward the nearby trees and then after he leaned his back on that tree,
「But then, His Majesty’s order is to persuade THAT to join the six general, right?」
「Do you think such a thing is possible?」
Hearing Ramunera’s question, Kirky closed his eyes and shook his head as he said,
「Impossible. At least, I don’t think such a thing is possible for me. Or should I say that I’m just too scared to do that?」
With a meek look that he has never shown before.
「Same here I guess.」
They knew that they might accidentally provoke THAT wrath. One of the warnings about not making him feel uncomfortable wasn’t an empty threat, it was a genuine threat. Naturally, the same goes for crushing them so thoroughly, it was self-confidence. If they made a wrong move here, THAT monster and the empire might have clashed in a great war.
It would be a good thing is Pho-san could beat THAT. We who had personally witnessed Pho-san’s soul-crushing power naturally had no doubt of his victory. But, such confidence vanished into thin air the moment I recalled that unfathomable magical power that erupted the moment THAT circled around behind us.
I could say for sure now. THAT was an aberration who had quit being a human, Monster saw the life of a human akin to a pebble on the roadside. We shouldn’t expect such aberration to have human-like benevolence. Inciting his wrath or causing him to feel uncomfortable might be resulting in the destruction of the empire.
「What shall we do then?」
「It’s been decided. We’ve to persuade THAT to join us or simply just observe THAT. It’s not the right time to persuade him. So we only have the option of persuading him.」
「ARE YOU INSANE? TO BE HONEST, I DON’T EVEN WANT TO MEET THAT MONSTER AGAIN!」
That was her true feeling. She cried as she wrapped her arms around her body.
「His Majesty’s order is absolute. If we backed out, we’re going to be purged by Pho-san. The only way out for us is to observe that Monster.」
At the very least, I wanted to believe in Pho-san’s power. Because without such possibilities, both of us would be purged by THAT Monster. No, dying was the last scary thing about provoking the wrath of transcendence. Because the worst fate for those who dare to provoke the wrath of transcendence was living while forced to experience hell on earth.
「Didn’t you just say a while ago that you don’t have the confidence to persuade THAT!」
Upon hearing Kirky’s protest,
「Indeed. I say that this isn’t the right time to persuade him. In the end, we are only left with the choice to know more about THAT.」
Ramunera said her opinion.
Since we had no idea whether Pho-san could really beat THAT or not, trying to convince THAT to join the six general was pure insanity. Not to mention that the Empire might be erased from the map if we made THAT uncomfortable.
That’s why we could only observe THAT for now. We had to investigate the possibility of Pho-san winning against THAT in case both of them clashed. Only after we were convinced that Pho-san could beat THAT did we could sit together at the negotiation table.
「But then, what will happen if not even Pho can beat THAT?」
「We’ve to persuade the empire to not have themselves involved with THAT.」
As long as we explained in detail just how terrifying THAT Monster’s personality was, even the Emperor who had never experienced the true terror from THAT would have no choice but to give up. In short, we’re betting on the cautious personality of the Emperor.
「And what are we going to do if we failed to convince His Majesty?」
「We can only escape with our tail between our leg.」
Even though Signiel chose to escape. Those who dropped out earlier were very lucky since they didn’t have to face the possibility of provoking the wrath of THAT Monster.
「Yeah, even I who hailed as the War Princess in the Empire and despising those who lost to me, has ended like this…」
Hearing that, Kirky heaved a sigh, chewing his lips as he looked up to the sky.
「Anyhow, observing THAT is all we do for now, right?」
The matter of Ramunera and Kirky being put together in the same team as the Monster during Babel’s practical exam was by no mean a mere coincidence. Babel’s upper echelons who knew about the Monster’s power deliberately make this arrangement. In short, this was some sort of warning from Babel for the empire to prevent the latter from provoking the wrath of the Monster.
At the very least, they would let the one who put in the same team as the Monster know that the Empire must never go into war against the Monster. This was also to reassure the Empire that Babel hadn’t fallen under the control of the Monster. Because if Babel really did fall under the control of the Monster, they would do everything to restrict Ramunera’s and Kirky’s freedom. In short, they did everything they could to warn the Empire. The rest would be left to Ramunera and co’s effort.
「Yeah, let’s do that.」
Ramunera closed her eyes as she made such a decision, thus, they went toward where the Monster vanished too with a heavy gait.
