Haru is in action~
Enjoy the chapter~
Chapter 134 Battle of Despair
When the carriage stopped, Haru got off from the carriage. If she’s going to use that super heavy Doggan Staff, not just killing and defeating the opponent, but she has to learn how to adjust the power perfectly. Excessive power that you can’t control isn’t very useful after all. It’s fine if the opponent is someone like me or Lily who won’t die even if got hit, but that’s not the case when dealing with fragile enemies. If the target that should be captured gets killed, it will be unbearable. Unless at times like this, you can’t find a living human who’s okay to kill. It’s a good thing that several bandits showed up at the right time, so let’s have her master it as much as she can with them as opponents.
「D-Danna, it’s okay for that girl to go alone? Please go with her…」
「Sorry. I’m busy as a pillow right now.」
「Danna, it’s an emergency, right? It’s an emergency now, right!?」
「Which one do you think is the emergency, displeasing Knight Leader Nell, or dealing with just 50 bandits?」
「That’s, uh… well…」
Although he didn’t say it, it seems that the merchant somehow understands. There is no need to compare. Besides, they are sparring partners that I gathered with trouble. If I or Nell were to fight them, it would be meaningless.
「Shishō~, can I kill some of them if I have to so that none of them escape?」
「Preventing them from escaping? Hmm, okay. Keep it to a minimum. They will also become living expenses for the future.」
「I will do my best~」
Haru, standing alone in front of the carriage, is waving her hand.
「I-Is it going to be that easy?」
「Repelling itself is, well… the problem is, how many can she catch alive? Depending on whether they are alive or dead, the reward at the time of delivery will change. After all, living criminals are low-cost labor forces.」
「That’s the problem, huh… Um, just so you know, I can’t afford to carry the bandits in my carriage, okay?」
「At that time, I’ll do something about it. I’ll also continue to work as your escort, so don’t worry. Gobuo, I think it’s completely safe, but just in case, stay close to Middle. Really, it’s just in case.」
「Gobu!」
By the way, this escort job itself is undertaken at a low price. There are six people (plus one goblin), but in terms of price, we are only being paid one-seventh of the market price. In other words, we only receive the rewards for one person. Well, it’s more of a means of transportation than working, and that’s the price. He was suspicious when he saw Nell and we were only asking the payment that much, but it was settled somehow using the dignity of the knight leader. I was glad that it settled quickly.
「Oh, I didn’t expect that they stopped the carriage by themselves. Did they found us?」
「It doesn’t matter. We were going to stop them forcibly anyway.」
「Hehehe. Look, there’s a cute little girl there.」
Such remarks reached my ears. Looking out through the small window of the carriage, a group of men appeared from the outside of the road. Hmm, I can’t get a good look from this window. However, it is too risky to wake up Nell. I think I’ll use that here. I rummage through my bag to search for what I’m looking for. Well, I’m sure it’s here…
「Ah, there it is.」
「Danna, are you going to read at a time like this…?」
The latest_epi_sodes are on_the novel35.COM website.
What I took out was a magic item, the 『Book of the Hawk’s Eye』. It looks like an ordinary book, and it comes with a bookmark. The book has the power to project a view of the surrounding area from the sky above the location where the bookmark is placed. It’s usually used at the son of the royal family to inform his whereabouts, or used at important places such as a checking station as a surveillance camera. It’s an excellent product that automatically adjusts the height even indoors! …… However, it’s a rare item from the dungeon and even this Adelheit can’t mass produce it. That’s right, there is no country that can use it frequently in many places.
By the way, I put this bookmark in the sole of the shoe Haru is wearing. Even when I sent Haru to the mine site of the black magic stone in the back mountain, I was using this magic item to check the situation. Even now, I can see what’s going on outside from here through this book.

…… Just so you know, I’m not using it for any kind of shady purposes, okay? I’ve told Haru about this, and since it’s set in her shoe, it won’t work in the bathroom since she takes it off. In the first place, the bookmark is sensitive to moisture, so you can’t see because of the steam. I’ve told her to be careful when she goes out to pick flowers, and I’ve eliminated other suspicious factors. Yes, I’ve eliminated them. If I don’t do that properly, I don’t know what Nell will say later. So, I’m innocent. I’m not guilty. In the first place, Haru has a poor ches―― no, let’s stop talking about it.
「Gyah!?」
「Gobu…」
「Ah, not good. Two people got their upper bodies burst open…」
「Shit! What the hell is with this monster girl!? It’s different from what I heard!」
Look, Haru has already begun to be peerless. When Haru lightly swung her Doggan Staff to the side, the two bandits standing side by side were taken away when they tried to defend it with their swords. It’s not just heavy and powerful, but the ornament on the tip is sharper than the ordinary famous blades. If she makes a wrong adjustment, a disaster like that will happen.
「Surround her! Push her with numbers!」
A man who seems to be reasonably skilled among the bandits urged them to attack in cooperation. Perhaps he is trusted to some extent, the bandits around him begin to surround Haru according to his command. They are all numbing their emotions by forcibly suppressing their fears and blasting them with excitement. They are in a situation where it will collapse if one of them escaped.
「Okay, go!」
「「「「U-UOOOOHHHH!」」」」
「Hup, ho!」
The bandits are all heading toward Haru at once. Some shot the spears and got their arms blown off, some got their slammed large hammers shattered and the scattered sharp fragments pierced all over their bodies. Everyone is in a tragic state and there’s no one with a body in perfect condition. Okay, points deducted.
「I-Impossible… Are we fighting with a demo――gyah…!?」
Ahh, the quite skilled man also had his head crushed. For Haru, maybe she just wanted to make him fainted by poked him lightly.
「It’s hopeless, run! The opponent is too bad!」
「E-Eek!」
Because the quite skilled man died, the bandits became disorderly mobs. They scattered and ran off in all directions.
「Ah, h-hey! Please don’t run away! Please fight me! …… Jeez.」
Haru sighed and rushed out seriously. At the next moment, she appeared in front of the bandit who escaped first. The bandit is about to be frightened by the sudden event, but Haru swings her Doggan Staff to kill him even before he could to and he is scattered in all directions. Furthermore, several bandits who fled to the opposite direction are killed by Haru’s Crime Lance that she released before she ran. This prevents the bandits from escaping in any direction and they can only stand from their places.
「P-Please spare me… As you can see, I will surrender…!」
Another man near the scattered bandits surrendered by prostrating himself on the ground. However, that’s not good.
「Gibyah!?」
As soon as he rubbed his forehead on the ground, a merciless blow by Haru was unleashed at his head. Yeah, that’s right. It won’t be training if he does that. He is just a non-moving target after all.
「I’m sorry, but I’ll definitely kill those who run away! If you surrender unresistingly, I will regard it as a sneaky trap and crush you! I will do my best not to kill those who fight me with all their might! So, please don’t run away and fight me without giving up! Please!」
Haru is going out of her way to bow her head to the bandits. It’s unbearable for the ones being asked so, though. Thus, being forbidden to flee or surrender, the bandits bet their lives on the slight possibility by fighting with all of their might.
「D-Danna. That bandit sounded like he was about to surrender…」
「He pretended to surrender and tried to attack her when she let her guard down. Good grief, they sure are fearsome people.」
