Ankoku Kishi Monogatari ~Yuusha wo Taosu Tameni Maou ni Shoukansaremashita~

Chapter 100.2: Snow White Holy Knight

I should use the chance when she didn’t pay any attention to me to escape from this place.

Mother was currently looking at the situation on the Hero side along with that frog witch.

They didn’t seem to care about the situation on the human side.

「Ah, the Light God from Desert got defeated.」

My mother, Datie, bitterly shouted.

Upon looking into the mirror, the light god of the desert got knocked out in one hit.

「Good grief… he might not die but what in the world he’s doing… I guess I’ll have to retrieve him later. Gerogero.」

The frog witch spoke while shaking her head.

「The other gods made me anxious too. I’ll be more reassured if Alphos participate too.」

「Eh?!!! You invited the most handsome god in heaven, Alphos-sama too?!!!」

Mother looked really delighted upon hearing Alphos’ name.

「Yeah, I invited him too. Is something the matter?」

The frog witch replied so while glaring at my mother.

「N-No!! Not at all!! Ohohohohoho!!」

My mother revealed an ugly smile on her face. That smile was ugly enough to send a chill running down my spine.

I’m actually quite familiar with the God of Song and Arts; Alphos.

I mean, how I couldn’t when he was the god who was painted the most by mother?

In addition, all those pictures had traces of dried, strange liquid on them.

「But, Heqat-sama. What do you mean by feeling at ease if Alphos-sama is coming too? That personage should’ve nothing to do with battle. He’s so handsome but, he doesn’t seem like a strong person.」

I agree with my mother.

I heard that Alphos was a god who spent his time lazing around while singing a song.

Didn’t seem like a strong person at all.

「Humph. I guess your eyes are just knotholes. Well, he’s always been playing around for the last hundreds of years. And his appearance suggests that he has nothing to do with battle. But, that man is really powerful. Definitely more powerful than any of the gods who come to this place.」

「Eh? Is that so?」

「Yeah. His image in the last hundreds of years might be that of a flippant god who loves playing around but, he used to be hailed as the strongest Holy Knight who served Oudith. That Holy Knight is the real him. And maybe, his actual combat prowess is far more powerful than Oudith. Gerogerogero.」

My mother was at loss for words upon hearing that remark.

◆Dark Knight; Kuroki

We and Alphos co were confronting each other above the cloud.

The beauties on Alphos’ ship were sneering at us.

They were clearly ridiculing us.

Honestly, I felt really helpless when these beauties were sneering at me.

Alphos, who had such beauties waiting upon him, was smiling gently toward me.

But, it could be seen from his eyes that he definitely was not smiling at all.

I wonder what makes this pinnacle of normies firing his arrow toward me?

「Is something the matter, Alphos-sama? We should go back soon since the hero and co battle is about to begin.」

The beauty by Alphos’ side asked such a question.

This beauty was still very young, and flat. She might even be mistaken as a boy.

「My adorable Hyashis. That one over there is far more interesting than the hero.」

「Hee, is that so, Alphos-sama. As for me, I’m far more interested in the hero than this Dark Knight though.」

Was she a member of the Dryad tribe? A green-haired elf said so as she approached Alphos.

「You’re such a sweety, Daphne. Could it be that you’re far more interested to that hero than to me?」

「Geez, you’re such a tease, Alphos-sama!! You’re the only one for me. Maybe all of us is far more interested to the Hero than the Dark Knight.」

The elf called Daphne said so as she looked at the other women.

「Is it true?」

The beauties regrouped to discuss something upon hearing Alphos’ question.

「Yes. The handsome hero is much better than that Dark Knight. We won’t force Alphos-sama if you’re more interested in the Dark Knight though.」

「That’s right. There’s no reason for us to be interested in the subordinate of that ugly demon king~.」

「As the demon king’s subordinate. I’m sure that the face beneath that helmet is so ugly as well.」

「Yes. Ugly people should just disappear from this world.」

「How about you lift that helmet and let us to see that ugly face of yours.」

「Stop it, I rather not see an ugly face.」

The beauties were sneering at me as they spoke.

To be honest, I really wanted to leave this place when I received such a one-sided judgment.

Since I’m not as handsome as Reiji, there was no way I could lift this helmet of mine.

「What’s wrong with those women head… for them to make such baseless assumption.」

「Wait, calm down, Kuna!!」

I stopped Kuna who was about to jump from behind.

I didn’t want her to make an enemy of those women.

I don’t mind if they hate me.

Well, not that I wanted them to hate me.

Maybe I should talk back a little bit but, I guess I’m no match against that many mouths.

Dammit, my eyes were sweating.

「Hey, look over there, isn’t that child look like the splitting image of demon king?」

Suddenly, one of the beauties pointed her finger toward Polen.

「Eh!?」

I could hear Polen’s bewildered voice from behind me.

「YOU’RE RIGHT, THEY’RE SPLITTING IMAGE OF EACH OTHER!!」

「Yup, just like that pig-like demon king!! Everyone look, we got a pig here!!」

「The pig over there. You must be the children of the demon king right? such an ugly child you are. I might kill myself if I’m born with such ugly face.」

「Yeah. I wonder why you’re still alive.」

「How ugly. I don’t know whether she really is his daughter or not, but she’s still related to the demon king. If that was the case, her personality must be rotten too.」

「She must be born from filth. Just go die already.」

The beauties were sneering at Polen.

「Awww…」

「Y-Your Highness?」

I could feel that Putina was patting on Polen who was on the verge of crying on her back in order to pacify the latter.

I spread my mantle in order to hide Polen from the beauty’s sight.

And then—

「SHUT YOUR UGLY MOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUTH!!!」

I couldn’t hide my shock since I shouted louder than I expected.

The beauties who kept chirping until just a moment ago were looking at me with surprised look on their faces.

Why are they looking at me like that?

Well it didn’t matter as it was too late to stop now.

「YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT HER HIGHNESS POLEN AT ALL! YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT HER KINDNESS!! DO YOU KNOW THAT SHE BRAVED HERSELF TO JUMP INTO THE SEA AND KILL A KRAKEN DESPITE BEING UNABLE TO SWIM HERSELF TO PROTECT THE PEOPLE WHO’RE LOOKING UP TO HER!!!!」

I pointed my sword toward those beauties.

「NEVERTHELESS!!! IF YOU REALLY MEAN WHAT YOU SAY!!! THIS ONE WON’T BE MERCIFUL EVEN IF YOU’RE A WOMAN!!!」

Black flame exploded from my body the moment I declared it.

「HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!」

「NOOOOOO!!! SCARYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!」

「SAVE ME, ALPHOS-SAMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!」

「KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!」

「NOOOOOOO!!! SAVE ME, ALPHOS-SAMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!」

Those ugly-hearted beauties were running around in panic on the deck of the ship.

Their act was almost to the point of being comical.

It seems that I accidentally unleashed fear on them.

I felt Kuna’s shock too.

In addition, Glorious was also looking back at me with a worried look in her eyes.

「Master Kuroki…」

Polen was calling my name while sobbing.

「You’re going to hurt my adorable brides? That’ll trouble me, you know. If that really happens, I’ve no choice but to become your opponent.」

Alphos’ body was wrapped in light as he said so with a smile on his face.

When the light had vanished, Alphos’ body had already been covered in snow-white armour.

「No way? For Alphos-sama to take his Holy Knight form…」

「I heard the rumour about this but, this is the first time I saw him in this figure…」

「Alphos-sama is, going to fight?」

「He’s going to fight for us, just like a knight…」

「HOW LOVELY!! HE CHOSE TO ASSUME HIS SEALED HOLY KNIGHT’S FORM TO PROTECT US FROM THE DARK KNIGHT!!!」

「ALPHOS-SAMA, BEAT THAT DARK KNIGHT!!」

「YES, BEAT THAT DARK KNIGHT, ALPHOS-SAMA!!!」

The beauties became mesmerized upon seeing Alphos figure in snow-white Holy Knight armour.

But, Alphos’ gaze was looking at me, ignoring those noisy women.

「MUSE!! MY SWORD!!」

「Yes, Alphos. I shall prepare it immediately.」

The beauty called Muse came with a sword and gave it to Alphos.

「Thanks Muse. NOW COME, WHITE HOLY DRAGON, VALJINIAS!!!」

After Alphos shouted, the deck of the ship opened and a dragon with snow-white scales jumped out from inside.

It was quite a big one. Its body size is comparable to Glorious.

「Toou!!」

Alphos leapt upward and landed on the back of the dragon called Valjinias.

「Hey Dark Knight. My Valjinias, and your black dragon. Shall we do this, mano o mano? I don’t want any other factors from hindering my victory after all.」

Alphos unsheathed his sword and pointed its emerald sword blade toward me.

「Agreed. I shall accept your challenge.」

I nodded.

「Kuroki…」

Kuna spoke with a worried look on my face.

「It’s okay, Kuna. Can you wait below along with Her Highness?」

I caressed Kuna’s cheeks.

「Mater Kuroki…」

「Don’t worry, Your Highness. I’ll be back immediately.」

I said so to Polen who was still crying.

Polen had always been staying in her room until lately.

She had to gather her courage just to leave her room.

I had no idea why Polen shut herself in her room.

But still, Polen had finally stepped out of her room.

So anyone who had no idea about her situation had no right to laugh at her.

Wasn’t this meant that I had to win this fight?

Moreover, this guy was really a skilled sharpshooter.

Anyhow, I still had to beat him.

Thus, I glared at Alphos who had already been clad in his snow-white holy knight’s armour.
