Chapter 117 Isnt it Fine if Chronois-san is the Protagonist Now? (2/2)
[When you f*cking fight! You have to start by introducing yourselves and then, you ready your stances! And now, you’re telling me that you acted as trash and surprise attacked them…… Are you trying to embarrass me!!!?]
That’s probably the aesthetics of fighting for the War King.
Not taking them by surprise attacks, and fighting them fair and square…… Eta and Theta broke it, and as a result, they incurred the wrath of the War King.

A deafening noise sounded, and after a while, Eta and Theta went limp and motionless.
The War King’s jet-black body hair turns back to red again before he turned towards me.
[…..Miyama Kaito…… I guess I’ll just call you Kaito? I’m sorry.]
[Eh?]
[Our idiots did idiotic stuff. Surprise attacks certainly are an act of those inferior trashes…… You have every right to refuse my invitation!]
[Ah, no……]
[I’m not going to question the fact that you turned down my invitation. And, here, it’s at least my apologies…… I’ll let you deal with them.]
[Wha!?]
After telling me that, the War King throws Eta and Theta in front of me.
I thought they were dead, but the two bodies were still breathing and they seemed to be alive.

And then, the War King took out a red-bladed sword out of nowhere and stabbed it in the ground in front of me.
[Here, you can use this…… If it’s that, even a Human could easily chop their heads off.]
[ ! ? ]
The War King’s words started me.
What the War King is trying to say…… is to kill these two with my own hands……
What should I do? I’m indeed angry with Eta and Theta for hurting Sieg-san, but not to the point that I want to kill them.
However, the War King’s silence tells me…… That he will not allow me to refuse……
I grabbed the hilt of the sword stuck in front of me and after I slowly pulled it out…… I threw it back in front of the War King.
[……What do you mean by this?]
[I’m not going to kill them.]

[Eh? I told you to kill them, didn’t I?]
[…..!? You just told me that you’d let me deal with them…… In that case, my decision to how I deal with them is that I will forgive them and not kill them.]
Shuddering as the War King spoke with increasing anger again, and I just replied to him by saying that this is one thing that I can’t give up.
[……So you’re saying that if I want to kill them, I would have to kill you first?]
[Yes!]
[……………….]
The other party is one of the Six Kings…… I don’t need to use my Sympathy Magic to know that he’s not bluffing when he mentioned killing.
Still, I can’t kill anyone…… Call me naive, call me stupid, but I can’t do what I can’t do.
[Ku– Ha— Hahahaha! Ahahaha!!!]
[……Eh?]

[I certainly didn’t! That’s really what I said! I just said that you will deal with them! Hahaha, I certainly didn’t tell you to kill them!]
However, the War King didn’t swing his claw at me, but rather, began to laugh in an amused manner for some reason.
And then, after laughing for a while, the War King let out a ferocious smile that gave me chills.
[You’re…… strong……]
[Eh? N- No, I’m not……]
[I’m not talking about your physical strength, I’m saying that you have spirit! Aren’t you a good one!? There aren’t many people who can dare say those words right in front of me! I like you!]
[……Huh?]
[Hey, Kaito…… “Let’s fight”!]
[Wha!?]
With a fiendish smile on his face, the War King happily told me…… that he wants to fight me……

[I like you! Then, we have to fight!!! Living things can only understand each other in battle!!!]
Magic power raged around us like scorching winds, blowing around like a tremendous storm.
What the heck is with that muscle-headed theory!? As expected, he isn’t a guy that we can talk with huh!?
Or rather, there’s no way I can beat him. Even now, just the aftermath of his magic power is about to blow me away, so there’s no way I can even get a single scratch on him.
However, it seems that it’s already completely decided that he would fight in me in the War King’s mind, as he began approaching looking really happy.
In the midst of that situation, which can be said to be more desperate than ever before, four shadows quietly stepped out in front of me.
[Ahh?]
[……E- Even if you’re War King-sama…… I- I will not allow you to hurt Kaito-san!]
[……I agree with Lili. There are times when even if we know that we can’t even bare our fangs at you, we still have to face it ourselves.]
[It’s my duty to protect master, and I will not run away even against opponents I can’t defeat!]

[……Good grief, how short my life is. Well, I guess this is fate.]
[Lilia-san, Sieg-san, Anima, Lunamaria-san……]
The four of them quickly stood in front of me, their legs trembling as they each held their weapons at the ready to face the War King.
[Hooohhh…… Interesting! You’re going to face me huh…… That’s good, no, that’s the best!!!]
[ [ [ [ ! ? ] ] ] ]
When the War King shouted in a good mood, his muscles, which are already tremendous, expanded and his body became bulkier.

We totally can’t win…… Realizing such a despairing, immense pressure to us, the War King slowly raises his fist.
However, that fist never swung down towards Lilia-san and the others……
[……Lay down your fist, War King. Trying to hurt them is tantamount to trying to attack me.]
[Ahh? What the heck are you doing here…… “Chronois”!]

Her quiet words echoing in the silence, Chronois-san calmly approached us while clad in her magic power.
[You should know…… Lilia over there is the one who received my blessing, then I have a duty to protect her.]
Chronois-san slowly walked over while announcing this, facing the War King with Lilia-san behind her back as if to protect her.
[I’m sorry, I was late in detecting your situation here, so I came too late. It must have been frightening, right? ……However, you don’t have to be anxious, Lilia. As long as I’m here, I won’t let you get even a scratch.]
[C- Chronois-sama……]
C- Chronois-san, aren’t you way too cool just now!? That speech, her actions, the timing of her appearance, everything just screams ikemen, you know!?
I- It’s really quite a shame that she’s a woman……
Dear Mom, Dad—— just when I thought the attack was over, the War King invaded before we could catch a breath. And in the situation that could be described as desperate, Chronois-san appeared to the rescue. How should I say this——- Isn’t it fine if Chronois-san is the protagonist now?
Throwing away her work, she rushed in to protect Lilia.

Also, the War King said he wanted to fight (compete), not that type of fight where they would strike each other…… He just wants to compete with Kaito in drinking.
