NOVEL NEXT Chapter 58: I've done it
After exclaiming I stand behind the mercenaries. It’s uncool if I say so myself, but I did introduce myself as a mage so here I am. After all, when I don’t turn into a succubus, my physical strength is just as much as my looks imply.
Still, maybe that made me seem weak since the mercenaries are not really giving off a welcoming mood, they shot a glance at me while shouting in succession:
“Why did you come out!?” “Do you want to die!?” “Little lady go back to the, no, just hurry up and run!”.
On the other hand, the bandits are quite welcoming in a different sense, yelling:
“Ohh, ain’t you a cutie?” “So who gets her first wins, right?” “Deal. Hihihi, I’ll make you scream with my claymore.” “Gyahahaha! What are you talking about? Yours is just a throwing knife at most. And a broken one too.”
Well, this is it. Yup, this Lil’ Succubus is a teeny bit mad now. Well, the mercenaries really don’t know of my rank and strength. They know that I’m an adventurer, but I feel like they think Urania and I are in the E ~ F Rank range.
That’s why their reactions are just natural. However, bandits, you’re all no good. I have zero intention of flirting or servicing men. They’re just literally beasts. When they see women, they only think of nothing but violating them. If they want something they want from someone, they only think of nothing but stealing it away. They ignore any related facts that are inconvenient to them.
So there isn’t any reason to hold back on these ????????, right? It’s fine to just get rid of them with [Lewd Dream] but I don’t really want to smell that, and, most of all, it’s a problematic skill to use in public so I’ll just end them with magic as usual.
“I ask! For this wicked sinner be [Cut].”
The magic I’m using is the wind attribute [Cut]. This is the same magic I’ve also used to lop off the Roper’s tentacles, it is a magic that slices the target with a pressurized wind blade. As long as I have air, I can use it wherever I want, so it’s quite easy to use.
“Gya!?” “Uwah!?” “What!?”
In the world, there’s barely any place without any air at all, even in the gaps between the armor and clothes of these bandits. It would have been different if they were wearing skintight suits, but I’ve never seen that kind of clothes in this world, so it’s probably alright.
Well, you might have already noticed but what I [Cut] was the strings, latches and fasteners of their equipment, as well as the clothes and underwear. Now, what that resulted in the complete disarming of the bandits’ equipment leaving them half-naked, only covered by what clothing they’ve managed to hold down
“…… Hah. Even pork bits are larger than that.” “The hell you just said, hah!?” “I’m definitely ??????? you, stinkin’ brat!” “I wasn’t able to see it so I couldn’t cut it, but you want me to cut your pork bits off this time?” “”””Hii!!?””””
Hey, why are you mercenaries, my allies, screaming along with them? Well, I do understand why, but that doesn’t make me feel any less bad.
“Now then, if you quietly surrender I’ll let you off. Lie belly down where you are and put your hands behind your back.” “… Kuh!” “… I-I won’t do it, okay? I don’t want to lose my son!” “Eh… that’s nasty…”
As a former man, I’m well versed in a man’s weak points. About half of them kneeled down and lay on their belly. The other half seems to be hesitating on what to do. Here, I just need to threaten them more and…
“Before I get ?????? up… I’ll just ???? you up!!” “Ah, [Cut].”
Oh ????, I’ve done it. While I was coming up with threats, the bandit nearest to me let go of his remaining clothes and charged at me naked so I just reflexively used [Cut]. Since what was always hidden is in plain sight, my gaze ended up locking on to that and I couldn’t shift my gaze away.
I somehow managed to control my magic power and adjusted it, so I barely managed to stop it, but I can’t stop the force behind it so, along with a slapping sound, a clump of air exploded on the bandit’s crotch. Umm, yep, that looks absolutely painful. I don’t even have one anymore but I can even almost feel my crotch shrinking up.
“~~~~~~~!?!?!?!?” “Uhhh… Yeah, umm, sorry, okay? Well… good thing your already short thing didn’t get shrunk in half, right?”
How do I say this, it was the bandits’ fault in the first place but I ended up apologizing with how unlucky he is. Well, anyway, thanks to his precious sacrifice, all the remaining bandits willingly decided to surrender.
If I simply used something like [Bind] from the start, I might have avoided this unneeded casualty but the most it could capture at the same time is 5 to 6 people. [Gale] was just within that limit but this time it wasn’t suitable with too many bandits.
Well, anyway, it’s good that there were minimal casualties on our side. It might be better to think of ways to disarm a large group of people too, huh.
