After they got like, 6 copies of the book. Ichinagi is going back to the Demon Continent just to review it's contents completely
But then Val spoke
[If you really are with the Demon Queen Lanushi, are guys friends or boyfriend girlfriend type shit?] Val said and Ichinagi looked at him with a "Are you serious?" Face
[What the fuck are you saying?] (Ichinagi)
[I mean, you know. When I got a better view of her since five years ago she cute though. I don't know how the hell you didn't get charmed on that.] (Val)
[Why the Americans always talks about love life's while we, the Japanese, would completely mind their own business?] (Ichinagi)
[I don't know. Just sayin' bro...] (Val)
[This conversation is the most awkward conversation I ever had, and it's an American.] (Ichinagi)
[What's wrong though? I mean, with her looks you just wanted to... Squish her cheeks because why the hell not?] (Val)
[Could we just shut up? I don't feel like prolonging this conversation.] (Ichinagi)
[Oh, Come on! She a cute demon girl though.] Val exclaimed
"Blasted Americans with their hot women mindset." Ichinagi thought to himself
As they left Villeurbeuge
Once again they were attacked by bandits again. This time, Ichinagi was soo pissed off because of Val's previous conversation that the battle itself was one sided
The remaining bandits are executed by the soldiers, war crime style
As they got to the border of the Demon Continent
[Hm? I don't remember being lush green grass here since four years ago when I visit here.] (Val)
[Wait, you arrived here four years ago? What did you do?] Ichinagi asked
[Well, four years ago, A year after your exile, I then went to check up on the Demon continent and was blocked off by some Giant ass forcefield and I knew this was your doing.]
[I tried going into different routes but never knew you had this OP shit ability that is the size of a continent. Tell me... How much fucking Mana did you use?] (Val)
[About half when making this, then recovered quickly, then I lose about 25% of my Mana just to maintain its strength every year. But four years ago it suddenly went up to 70%.]
[Let me guess.... You tried to enter by force you idiot?] Ichinagi looked at him with a dissatisfied look
Val just nervously chuckle. It's true he actually want to enter the demon continent by force
[I thought this forcefield is made by the demons and I thought, "screw it?" Then started slashing the forcefield with all my strongest sword attacks but it didn't break. I didn't know you were strengthening it manually.] (Val)
[You owe me a fucking box full of high grade mana potions, Val. Do you know how much of a fucking shitty year four years ago? Well liberating slaves put a smile on my face, but for maintaining the forcefield? For the love of God, I had to steal some low, medium, to high grade mana potions from wondering merchant ships and drank it all up.]
[Do note those merchants are corrupt or either scammers...]
[So you might have heard the looming rumour about "the sailless metal pirate ship"?] (Ichinagi)
[Yeah, I heard the rumour, I thought, "hmmm, maybe it is an iron clad" then when the sailless part came I thought again "must've been a steamship or a magic engine."]
[Then I heard they saw the flag of red and white stripes and blue background stars, and I knew "wait that's my country!". And then a White top, blue middle, and red bottom flag and I knew it's a Russian flag.]
[You have committed some interesting piracy movements lately. And I like it.] (Val)
[Well it's all your fault, Val.] (Ichinagi)
[Alright! Sorry. You should've put a plack or a sign saying "Made by Naru" or something.] Val said while pouting
As they arrived st the capital city of the demon continent. Val glances outside
[*Whistle* Is this what the capital city of the demon continent looks like? I thought it would be a "almost abandoned" city where everything is like, in ruins, but no, thi place looks like America in the 19th century or early 20th century design.] (Val)
[Design, 1920 to 70.] Ichinagi pointed
[Really? I don't see any 1970's design here.] (Val)
Unauthorized usage: this narrative is on Amazon without the author's consent. Report any sightings.
[It's because the 1970s buildings are at my island. This part is either 1920 or 1940. We're planning on going up to 1960] (Ichinagi)
[I see....]
As they go up to the stairs of the demon queen castle, Maro is there at the front entrance of the castle. Looks like she is waiting for someone
[What's wrong Maro? Why are you waiting outside?] Ichinagi asked
[I-I-It's not like I'm waiting for you or anything! Besides I was ordered by Demon Queen Lanushi.]
[And I noticed.... Who is the aristocrat looking person behind you?] (Maro)
[I'll take that as an offense towards blonde men...] Val pointed at her
[Him?] Ichinagi pointed at Val [He is one of my best friends. Vallery Val Brown.]
[And he's a hero....]
Maro widened her eyes
The word "hero" is always engraved in every person who works under Lanushi. Ichinagi is a special case because he is exiled and all and the Empire of Phoenix won't do shit to call for him
She then unsheathed her dragon sword made by modern metal and a mix of mithril
[DIE HERO!] she shouted as she charges for an attack at Val
What did Val do?
Dodging every single attack she swung
[This is making me feel nostalgic...] Val said while he was dodging Maro's attacks
[Is it the two girls from Villeurbeuge? Or the group of boys who ganged up on us?] (Ichinagi)
[Neither of those two...] He then dodges Maro's fencing skill [It was three years ago that I became a S rank adventurer. I was with a party member and we both are very well known throughout the southwestern part of the Empire.]
[Is this what the term "tsundere" come from? Yeah she is like that. Everytime I compliment her- hoh!] Dodges Maro's left swing
[Everytime I compliment HER!-] he dodges another attack [she would just blush and somehow says Baka at me for no utter reason at all. But somehow she likes being praised.] (Val)
[What happened to her then? Also two steps left.] (Ichinagi)
Val then took two steps left [And a year ago, we parted ways.]
[Last I heard she became one of the most well known SS rank warriors in the Empire.] (Val)
[HUH?!] Ichinagi is flabbergasted by the information
[I'll explain more. But first!] He then swiftly dodged Maro's attack
And then punches her abdomen and making her ass out
[Hoh! What a skilled sword woman. Either Rank A or S. But anywho, could you help me pick her up inside?] (Val)
[S-Sure...]
Ichinagi and Val picked up the unconscious Maro inside the castle
Continuing on to Val's explanation
[I see.... Seems like she kept contact with you ain't?] (Ichinagi)
[Yes... Though sadly she wouldn't take me as a "battle buddy" because of "reasons".]
[Interestingly, her group is called...] Val was cut off
[The five holy fuckin swords. And all of them are female. I read their history, there isn't one, ONE single male that have become a holy sword member.]
Let's talk about the five holy swords but we are gonna make it short
First off, this group was formed under the "first heroes". Their sole purpose is to defend any incoming demon attacks when the heroes are not around
But considering Val's "old partner in crime" is a person who holds the Rank of SS and a Holy Sword maiden. He thought if dropping bombs on them would be an effective strategy on defeating them
[Well, with your cheating modern army of yours, Naru. Them alone is like a walk in a park when fighting them.]
[I mean, imagine. To kill them, but don't kill my old friend I beg of you or I will kill you if you did. Anyways to kill them a sniper squad is already enough.] (Val)
[Don't worry we won't kill her, unless she was "accidentally" killed, that's not ours or my problem. But anyways a sniper squad isn't enough. Think about the metals here in this world]
[We have Mithril, Adamantite, Magic Iron, the whole fucking fantasy iron family tree. We tested a Mithril breast plate to see which caliber it can withstand.]
[And holy shit they absorb any rifle rounds but can be scratched or pierced by 12 caliber bullets.]
[We tried adamantite and holy fucking shit it can withstand a fucking 30mm caliber.] (Ichinagi)
[Did you tried it on tanks?] (Val)
[Still currently making a mock version of the Tiger one made out of Mithril.]
[So in a scenario if one if my guys suddenly ran into the five holy swords, a bomb or a tank in a distance of.... Something something 600 meters to 1 km? Maybe more, is enough. Cuz riflemen will have a hard time literally wasting bullets on them without any effect at all.] (Ichinagi)
[You know throwing explosives at the enemy is a bit "overkill".] (Val)
[How ironic when you are an American, and in my country we don't just start fights by throwing bombs. We throw hentai as a "fuck you" letter for them.] (Ichinagi)
[You Japs with your perverted thoughts. Also!]
Val then whispered to Ichinagi
[Do you still have your phone? You can charge it if you have lightning based magic. Though internet will be a problem I still use the camera.] Ichinagi then became interested
[Go on....]
[I snap some panty shots... I also did it to the old partner I mentioned.] (Val)
Ichinagi smirked [heh~, You sly devil you even done it to your partner in crime. How many shots did you take?]
[I put them on a folder, it has 639 panty shots in store. All high quality, my friend...] (Val)
[Give me the good shit and how much? I'm willing to give you anything unless it isn't absurd, but anyways I will offer you anything. Guns, Tanks, the whole shit.] (Ichinagi)
[I am your good friend, Naru-boy. So no payment but! You will have to send me an infinite supply of huns and ammo for the sake of this American's sanity. Deal?]
[Deal...]
They then "maliciously" sending each other perverted photos and meanwhile Lanushi hiding behind a pillar
"What is that idiot doing? And who is that guy? He seems to be very acquainted with, Naru..." She thought to herself
At the end of the day, Val sahred 238 "good shit" photos to Ichinagi, and then information from other countries and kingdoms. In exchange, Val's "Squad" is increased to 20 and will be given the "latest stuff" to him for about a year and will be given infinite amount of bullets by using a feature they have discovered called {Item Share}
This hero skill is one of the strongest "support-type" skill that connects ones spacial storage for a limited amount of time
And because Ichinagi and Val understands it all, they broke the "time limit" thing and can be permanent but Ichinagi has the power to "disconnect" Val's storage if need be
In short it's like sending a mail and if you want to stop the mail you just have to block them. Simple right? Just exclude it consumes just a little bit mana from them
After introducing Val, the newest member in "Ichinagi's" squad to Lanushi, she almost had a "panic" attack because of Val's appearance
"Great, now there are two heroes who are gonna live in the capital." She then holds the bridge from her nose "The things I put up with..." She then sighed in defeat because Val has no intentions on killing her unless she starts to become "hostile" towards him
As Ichinagi reviewed the book about the first demon lord and hero
"It's shit.... It's all SHIT!"
"No fucking answers on how to return back! This world is one of those cliche isekai worlds! No return this is a new life!" He then vents his anger by punching the chair pillow
[Geez, calm down, you Jap. We can find a way to return back to our old world. You have me though... We both want to return so tell me and I will do it] Val said to Ichinagi
[I don't have any idea on ordering you, you American. Besides, you're gonna run around aimlessly if you do me a favor, Val.] (Ichinagi)
[Do you think of a way of returning by killing Lanushi?] Ichinagi looked at Val in shock
Meanwhile not far from their conversation is Lanushi and Maro eavesdropping them
[Do you think of a way of returning by killing Lanushi?] the voice of Val is heard by both of them
[Wh-what?! Kill me?] Lanushi muttered in shock
[See, Demon Queen Lanushi, we can't trust these heroes. No human can be trusted!] Maro muttered to Lanushi
And then Ichinagi's voice can be heard. Lanushi then enhanced her hearing snd wanted to know what's his answer is
[You fucking kidding me, Val?] A shocking reply
[Killing the Demon Queen is just pointless murder. Have your read the book or something or you just skimmed the whole thing? Where previous heroes defeated the previous demon lords and queens, did the book mentioned the heroes going back huh?] The clear anger from Ichinagi's voice made Maro and Lanushi go into shock because this is the first time they witness Ichinagi being angry
He is all teasing and trickery and being happy with it but seeing him angry is like a rare occurrence
Val sighed and spoke
[Jeez, Sorry, Naru. Never knew you would protect Lanushi though. Have you accumulating feelings lately?] Lanushi then blushed lightly
[Besides that was just my speculation. I know killing Lanushi is like pointlessly murdering an innocent person. It's just that it came into my mind all of the sudden.] (Val)
[I see... Don't kill Lanushi. Like the same as yours. I won't kill your "old buddy" and you will not kill Lanushi. Even though she is a bit Naïve and stupid...]
"HUH?!" Lanushi is dumbfounded
[She is still young. Just exclude she is literally centuries older than us. But still.] (Ichinagi)
[Yosh. I won't kill or harm her in anyway possible. I promise. Besides the thrill of killing is dying down in me and the only way to enjoy this world is going to fucking brothels and have fun no? Hehehe~.]
They both laughed it off
[Well, Goodnight Naru.] He raised hsi fist for a fist bump
[Sure... Goodnight to you too.]
They both did a fist bump and left
Meanwhile with Lanushi and Maro
[I think they are gone now. Demon Queen Lanushi, how shall we deal with these tw-] somehow Lanushi isn't there rsther she instantly teleported to her bedroom
"So... The hero Ichinagi thinks of me as just a normal girl....? Since when people around me said that?"
"Heh, NONE...."
She then leans to her side
"Killing me is like Pointless murder? Then what's the point of being a hero then?" She thought to herself
"Well, I likely gonna wait and see what is their next move is. I'm sleepy..."
At that night. Everyone had rest
Chapter 6 ends
