g away is boring, cat lady!”
“Come play with us, hey?”
But Tito was not running away.
Remembering Iris’s words, she drew the bandits to her and ran.
“(The important thing is what I want…! Not ‘What if I cause trouble’ or ‘What if I hurt them?’──’I want to be strong’ or ‘I want to protect everyone.’…!).”
When she was far enough away from the residents, she turned around.
“If you want to have fun, how about this kind of fun──[Claw Piercing Bullet]!”
Tito secretly released a nut in her hand into the air and flashed her claws into the air.
The nuts shot out like bullets and hit the men in the foreheads.
“Gah!
“Agh!”
The men screamed in agony one after another as they were hit by the super-speed projectiles.
The bandits were shaken as their comrades suddenly collapsed to the ground.
“W-what’s wrong with you guys?”
“Hey, get a hold of yourselves! What’s going on?”
“Damn, did you do this to them? You’re using some kind of incomprehensible trick…!”
“G-give up! I don’t want to hurt you anymore…!”
Tito asked them to surrender, but the bandits were still rushing toward her in a frenzy of anger.
“Oh! Don’t screw with me, you little shit!”
“It can’t be helped──[Whirlwind Claws]!”
Tito gathered her strength and swung her crossed arms out at once.
The shockwave released from the claws caused a gust of wind, creating a localized tornado.
“W-what the hell?”
The tornado engulfed the bandits without mercy and launched them into the night sky.
“Gyaaaaahhhh!”
The tornado dissipates, and the bandits fall to the sand and faint.
“U- ugh…!”
“Unbelievable…”
“I-did-it…! Just like Iris-sama said, I was able to fight properly…!”
Tito’s voice burst out.
It was not anxiety but listening to the voice inside her that said, ‘I want to protect them,’ that relaxed the tension in her shoulders.
The residents who were watching in the distance cheered and shouted.
“That’s great, Jo-chan! Go for it!”
“Keep up the good work! Don’t lose, Tito-oneechan!”
“Y-yes! I’ll do my best!
Cheered on by the cheerful cheers, Tito ran to another group of bandits.
***
Under the shining moon.
Luna is standing in the moonlight, looking calm and cool when the bandits all attack her at once.
“Dieeee!”
But──
“Too late!”
“Ugh!”
The moment Luna snaps her fingers, the men’s movements come to a halt.
In the moonlight, you can see the strings entangling their bodies.
” Whoa! W-what the hell is this?”
“My body is stuck… It hurts.
What the hell is this string? It’s digging into me!”
“Damn, what the hell did you do?”
Luna looked down at them with a calm face as they ranted and raved while collapsing in a heap.
“Don’t move.
The string has the sharpness to twist even an orc’s neck.
If you do anything rash, you will see blood.”
“Hyiii!”
At that moment, an angry voice rose up behind Luna.
“Hey, don’t you care what happens to these people?”
When she turned around, she saw that the bandits had taken some women hostage and were holding them at knife point.
“Hehehe, you seem to be using some kind of incomprehensible weapon, but I guess you can’t touch me with this…”
“You think so?”
“Huh…?”
Luna grabbed something in mid-air, and at the same time, the strings roared! The next thing they knew, the half-moon swords had disappeared from the men’s hands.
“Wha!? T-the half-moon sword…?”
“Mine is missing, too! Where the hell──?”
“I’ve retrieved your weapons.”
Luna said calmly, and before they knew it, the weapons of the bandits had been piled up at her feet.
Behind her, the rescued women were blushing.
“W-when did you do that?”
“I thought that if I had captured them quietly, I could have made things a little easier for them, but… it seems that they want to get hurt.”
“What are you complaining──”
The men, who were unarmed, all went wild at once – Luna was instantly brought into close contact with them and slammed the sword into their necks.
“Aghh!”
Luna runs through the bandits, knocking them down one by one without even using a string.
“W-what the heck is this girl? She’s so fast──Guehh!”
“Bullshit, how did she manage to take down all of these people in an instant? I didn’t hear they were this strong──Gyahhh!”
“Kyaa, Luna-san, you’re so strong! So cool!”
“Get ’em, Luna-san!”
The women cheered, forgetting their fears in the face of Luna’s brilliant fighting performance.
***
“Good grief, what bad luck!”
Iris exhaled shallowly in front of the lineup of bandits.
Then, a strong man who seemed to be the leader of the bandits let out a loud, vulgar laugh.
“Gahahahahaha! No one survived the attack by us! Lament your bad luck! Uooraaaaaa!”
The bandits rushed at Iris from all directions, and dozens of half-moon swords were brought down on her.
But.
“It’s you who are unlucky.”
“Wha…!?”
Iris caught all of the half-moon blades that were swung down at her at once with the sword that she had drawn before anyone noticed.
“Ara, is this all there is to it?”
Iris snaps her sword wide open, and a gust of wind rises up and blows the bandits away.
“Hyiiiiiiii!”
“What the hell is this woman…? She’s too strong…!”
“D-don’t be afraid! She’s only one woman!”
Some of them braced themselves as they fought.
Iris let out a sigh and quickly lowered her sword.
“I was hoping this would make you more mature… but you’re not going to get away with it.”
“Huh? Don’t get carried away──”
Iris scrutinized him sharply.
“You people don’t need to use a sword.”
A moment later, tremendous sword energy rose from her slender body.
“──A-ah…”
The bandits instantly lost their complexion and fell to the ground.
There was no one who could stand up to the overwhelming power of one of the world’s strongest.
Iris exhaled, released her posture, and lightly sheathed her sword.
“You are pathetic.
You should at least be able to measure your opponent in front of you.”
