Volume 2 Chapter 104 (1/2)

By on • ( ) This Hero is invincible but too cautious - Voluing John Dae out of the ground, I spoke with the Great Goddess Isister and got permission to open the portal to Aerith Continent, the land of the Death Ehtaway

「I don't knohere is the Death Emperor is in the Aerith Continent Anyways, let's avoid the northern area near the Gastreid Continent where the Deion to see its state」

「Seiya There seems to be a town called ”Fulwaana” in the south Would you like to open the portal directly to that town, so that we can gather some information first?」

「A town in a continent ruled by the Death Eh chance that that town is already full of undead and ghosts It's dangerous to open the portal directly to that town so suddenly Open the portal with a distance of 5000 meters south from there」

「O…Okay I understand 」

Seiya was cautious as ever But, I respected his decision since it could be dangerous for us all Therefore, I opened the portal to an area far away froh the portal and waited He took so

「Hey, hero What's that? 」

「It's a jar owned by Bardul, the Goddess of Gold 」

Ah Speaking of which, didn't Bardul throw salt at me from that particular jar when I was cursed by Ceremonic…!?

Seiya took some salt out of that jar and placed it at the botto that, he sprinkled salt on my head, and then, on John Dae and Kiriko's heads as well John Dae frowned upon receiving a bath of salt, and a confused Kiriko asked Seiya the following question

「Mi…Mister Seiya Why did you do that to us? 」

「Salt has the effect of shooing away evil spirits It's a ghost countermeasure, so I used it as a prevention s had anything to do with this…Anyways, I thought that this bizarre talk was just another one of Seiya's weird talks, so I ignored it completely

Seiya finally reached the portal's door After slowly opening the door, Seiya dived in and we followed him

—

「Whoa…This land is full of sand…! 」

Kiriko spoke aloud e arrived at the land from the portal Just as Kiriko said, all I could see was a 360-degree area full of sand In addition, the hot sun shi+ned brightly above our heads It looked as if we arrived in the azed at the horizon

「Is that the Fulwaana town? 」

The horizon aying like athat looked like a town in front of John Dae

「I think so Well, let's walk over there for the ti 」

「…Wait Lista 」

Seiya stopped o to the Fulwaana town Then, Seiya crouched down and put his hands on the hot sand

「What are you doing, Seiya…Eh, ahhhh!? 」

On this precise oleed frooleolerabbed my body and put me on its back Similarly, John Dae and Kiriko were placed on the back of their respective golems by force

「Seiya!? But, why!? 」

「This land is a desert area Thereyou into the hot sand like solems' backs Besides…」

「Besides what? 」

When John Dae asked what he wanted to say, Seiya looked somewhat confident

「…Isn't it fun? 」

「No…Absolutely not! This isn't fun at all…! 」

John Dae was right!! What was fun about this!? I didn't kno the sensitivity of this hero worked at all…!!

Still, Kiriko spoke with a bright voice

「I think that this is extremely fun! 」

Is…Is that so!? I wondered if it felt like riding on the back of an elephant!?

「All right Let's go now 」

And then, we…no, actually, the golean to move forward However, alked a few steps closer to the town, the sand in front of us rose up, and a few huround!

「Wha…What on earth!? 」

A skeleton with a sword e, there were nearly ten skeleton swordsmen in front of us!

「He…Hey, hero! That's a horde of skeletons!! Should we get down froht theole their swords and ran towards us with cracking noises as if their bones were breaking apart However, they fleay and broke into pieces when the golems' intense fists smashed into their heads

As…As expected of Seiya's powerful golems since they were created after Seiya ic! They had a treolean to seize the ie with the power of the ”Endless Fall” Nonetheless, Seiya stopped ree from the sand, and stared fixedly at one of the ied skeletons, this one only had a broken head while the body remained intact

「John Dae Do you want to try to make this skeleton your new body? 」

「No…No, I don't It doesn't e from an undead to a headless skeleton I refuse it…」

「But, the smell of death will disappear, you know? 」

「I just told you that I don't want to be a ”skeleton of an unknown person”! My current body is better even if it rots!」

「Oh uy you are 」

「How auy!? 」

John Dae refused to become a headless skeleton…We…Well, obviously IJohn Dae's soul to a different body was co human body, and the other choices were scarce I wondered if there was no other option but to transfer his soul to a monster's body?

Either way, after iped out the skeleton swordsain Still, our peaceful journey only lasted for a brief e haze cos appeared in front of us! Those things didn't have any physical substance, so that hosts! They're so many! 」

I noticed that shadows of people's faces were floating in that haze It seemed as if those people were full of resente of dead hu

「Oh, so those things are ghosts? Now is the ti 」

Then, Seiya held his Killer Sword and activated the Ghostbuster taught by Nephitet Seiya held his sith a white hostly haze!

「You too get out the Killer Swords from your waist 」

「Ye…Yes! 」

We pulled the Killer Swords froave it to us When I took my sword, I noticed that my blade had the same white membrane like Seiya's sword

「Eh!? My sword already activated the Ghostbuster!? 」

「I gave my spiritual power to those swords ere in the heavenly world I'uys helpus to cooperate with him! I've alanted to help Seiya, but this was a battle andto fight as well! I wondered if I could do it…No, as I thinking about! The Goddess had to support her hero! I had to do my best as well!

I imitated John Dae's movements and held my sword upwards Then, Seiya stared at us with cold eyes

「What are you going? Just give your swords to the goleolems!? 」

Both John Dae and I were surprised Nevertheless, we gave our swords to the goleolems, who received the swords with the hidden spiritual power, assaulted the ghosts! They swung their ar and they slashed the large ahosts took the hit from the Ghostbuster…

「Ohhhhhhhh… 」

The red cloud disappeared like a

…After that, the goleainst the eneole, but John Dae had a difficult expression on his face

「You're leaving everything to the golems…I wonder how you do it Don't you have any sense of ”feeling defeated” by relying on extra powers and not on your own directly…?」

「What does thatdefeated”? I don't need to feel such a useless thing Safety is ht about that part, but… 」

Ah…Mash was like that too Most ainst monsters on direct battles

However, I noticed that Seiya wrinkled between his eyebrohen he stared at one particular direction

「…Hey, Kiriko What are you doing? 」

I was surprised when I looked at Kiriko It seeole hands

「I…I…I want to fight these ghosts with my oer! 」
