Kujibiki Tokushou: Musou Hāremu ken

Chapter 12

Chapter 12 . Cursed Sword and Lottery Ticket

While the Dining Poster Girl wait at the outside, I looked at Miu at the opposite direction .

“Well then Miu, I leave the house to you . ”

“Hai, safe journey Master . ”

“Okay . ”

I turned around trying to exit,

“Ahh…”

“Hnn…?” heard Miu’s voice and I turned back to her, “What’s wrong?”

“Uhh, umm… that’s…”

“Huh?”

“Erm…”

“What is it?”

“…safe journey”

“Ahh… I’ll be back . ” I exited the door with Miu sending me off . I stopped as I remembered about something and hurriedly return inside the mansion . “Miu!!!”

“Hiiyaiii!!”

I called out for Miu when I got inside the mansion, and Miu high pitch voice was heard .

“Wha- what’s wrong Master?”

“Mofu Mofu . My ‘safe journey’ mofu mofu . ”

“Ah…”

Miu’s pupils shine but looking a little bit shy . I pulled out my hand to hug her .

Mofu mofu mofu mofu .

As I was doing the *mofu mofu* for both portion of ‘safe journey’ and ‘welcome back master’, I saw Miu’s tail went pitter patter . It was very cute .

“Well then, this time I’ll be off for sure . ”

“Hai! have a safe journey!”

Frosty Dining’s Poster girl . I was walking with Fiona side by side .

I walked with her leading the way as we came out to the street .

“Well then, what is this thing that you need my help with?”

“I would like for you to help my Imouto . ”

“Imouto-san huh? From the place where you heard my name from, it means it is something that can be solve with pure strength huh?

“Probably…”

“Probably…?”

Fiona was sounding unclear . There seems to be more to her story . The Fiona whom I saw at the dining was completely different compared to the Fiona that I was looking at now . She looked completely hurried . She was walking really fast, if I were to be a little bit slow, I would’ve been left behind .

That’s why I didn’t ask anything and kept on following Fiona .

“My imouto has been caught . ”

After walking quite a while, walking off from the main road, we entered a path that doesn’t look like anything but an animal pathway . Deep in the forest, a small cave was seen .

The moment I saw it, there were stagnant air leaking from the inside of the cave .

“What is that, is it smoke?”

“Smokes? Where?”

“There,”

Pointing out at the direction of the cave, Fiona looked at where I point out for a while and then looked at me looking uneasy .

“I don’t see any smoke . ”

“Eh? Then that…”

I was about to say something but then I was taken aback . The stagnant air came floating in the air, and the moment I touched it, I could feel the chill .

It was the same feeling when I was fighting the ghost at the mansion before .

“It feels like… like demonic aura . ”

“You can see something like that?”

Fiona said in a loud voice .

“If that so then, there is something inside the cave that giving off that demonic aura . ”

“Yes…”

Fiona nodded and head towards the cave . I followed suit . After walking several steps, I can see the inside of the cave completely . Well even though I said ‘cave’, when I looked closely there was only 2 – 3 meters space of the cave .

As there was the demonic aura that was drifting in the air made me unable to see the inside of the cave before, it makes the cave looked deep from the outside .

Inside the cave, alongside the wall there was one woman sitting . She looked a little bit older than Miu, and looked a little bit more shorter compared to Fiona . Her features are well ordered and looks quite the same with Fiona .

“This girl is Fiona’s…”

“She’s my sister, Mari . ”

I thought so . They both looks really similar, anyone can see that they are sisters .

“Onee-chan?”

Mari called out to her sister in a voice that was close to a scream when she realized our presence . Her voice was withering and she just stayed still not standing up .

One can see how sad she looked when her tears dried, but all she did was calling out to Fiona and did not do any sort of movement .

Certainly it was weird . Once again I looked at Mari . As I did that, I saw Mari was holding something in her arms .

“Stick…? No, this one got a handle, furthermore a scabbard… is it sword?”

“Yes, Mari is possessed by that thing . ”

“Possessed… Cursed Sword?”

“Yes . ”

“Why is she in possession of such thing?”

“I don’t know myself . Mari usually play inside this forest on a routine basis . It became dark on the evening the day before yesterday but she hasn’t come back, I went to look for her… And she already became like this . This hole too, when I got here before there was no hole around here . ”

“The day before yesterday… . quite a time had passed . ”

Her voice was withering and she nodded .

“Mari-chan, she can’t move?”

“Yes…” Fiona answered with a frail expression .

“She got a baggy eyes, was it just due to lack of sleep? Nope, there is no such thing as that are there?”

What she was holding onto was a Cursed Sword, and with her haggard looks, I couldn’t help but imagining of something bad .

Anyway, I got the gist of what had happened .

“So, what should we do?”

“After thing had became like this . I went to ask for Andrew Firm help whom had been taking care of us sisters . They said that as long as we get the sword away from Mari she will be back to okay . I can find someone from the city who can probably defeat Mari there and then to get the sword but, there was no one who can get the sword without hurting Mari . ”

“I see, afterward they introduce you to me who is competent enough to do the job right?”

Fiona looked at Mari . Fiona was on the verge of crying as she saw Mari looking haggard with dry tears . A young girl who had been possessed by a Cursed Sword . I need to do something about this fast .

“Fiona you can go outside…”

“Eh… that’s . ”

“It’s fine if I take the sword away from Mari without hurting her right?”

“U, um . ”

“I’ll do something about it . ”

When I said those word to her with strong conviction, Fiona nodded timidly and went outside the small cave . Me and Mari, there were only the two of use there, facing each other . Mari won’t come attacking . She was just sitting against the wall with the Cursed Sword on her arms .

One step, I launched forward .

With speed that is unimaginable for a young lady to have, Mari did a quick draw and attack me up front . In response, I evaded it . However Mari’s attack became even more fierce .

Sharp sword strike was coming right at me from every direction . I observe every incoming attack and evades it . However I was not able to evade the demonic aura that was emitted by the Cursed Sword and I can feel the sensation *piri piri* piercing through my skin .

Counter attack— as I was thinking about that .

“It hurts, my hands, it hurts…”

“Mari!”

Mari moaned sounding very painful . When Fiona who was at the outside of the cave heard that she screamed out .

“She’s being manipulated by the Cursed Sword . Her body has reached its limit . Tch…”

This fight cannot be dragged on . More like, it’s bad to have Mari move more than this . If that’s the case then– I’ll strike even before she can move . For once I took a huge distance from Mari . Using my dominant foot, I put all my strength into it and leap forward .

(With my all . )

Since the first day I got into this world, for the first time I plunged forward with every ounce of my strength . I can feel breaking through the demonic aura . There were no response from Cursed Sword = Mari . I who have closed the distance in an instant, strike even before the Cursed Sword could respond .

I took the Cursed Sword away from Mari’s arms .

“Yoshiii!!!”

Success in snatching away the Cursed Sword from Mari .

I heard a voice . It was a voice that resonate directly into my brain . It was like a woman’s voice . I looked at the Cursed Sword . I can feel the sensation of *dokun dokun* from where I hold the cursed sword . It was as if it was pulsating .

Perhaps, it was this Cursed Sword voice .

What should I do– as i was thinking for a little . If I bring the Cursed Sword out just like this it will be quite dangerous— as I was thinking that, I heard the same voice again .

(Then I’ll just possess you . )

“Hold on a sec…”

I was thinking of dropping off the idea but a loud laughter was resonating in my mind . I feel like the Cursed Sword had done something to me, some was done and I don’t know how to stop it . However, nothing happened .

(Wha . . what?! Why can’t I possess you!)

The Cursed Sword voice resonate sounding very confused .

Afterward, it tried to do something several times but nothing happened . As for me, there’s no change or whatsoever . The voice of the Cursed Sword became even more confused than before . I don’t know the reason but, it seems like it can’t do like what it had done to Mari on me .

“Yoshi, well then I’ll just neglect it . ”Thus I decide so . I looked at Fiona with the Cursed Sword while holding the Cursed Sword .

Fiona then went inside the cave . She hugged Mari who had fainted after I snatched away the Cursed Sword .

“How was it, is she okay?”

“Yes, she’s probably going to be alright . ”

I looked at Mari’s complexion . Mari seems to be very worn out for her to lose her consciousness . But as he breathing is normal, she’s probably going to be just fine just like what Fiona had said .

“Just to be sure, after we get back to the city, take her to a doctor . ”

“Okay . ”

Fiona helped Mari as I looked at them both . Once again, she looked like she’s on the verge of crying . But this time, I’m sure that she was just glad for the turnout .

“Trully, thank you very much . Thanks to Kakeru-san help, Mari . . Mari is…”

“It’s fine, it’s fine . We’ll leave that for later, as for now Fiona need to bring Mari to a doctor . ”

“Eh? How about Kakeru-san?”

“I’ll follow suit after I deal with this thing…” I said as I show the Cursed Sword to Fiona .

After saying that She understood, she give her gratitude for several more times . And then left with Mari out from the cave .

For me who was holding the Cursed Sword, I kept on going circle inside the cave while thinking what should I do with it .

I think the best solution would be breaking this sword into pieces . As I was thinking that, I saw something shining from where Mari was sitting earlier .

When I looked at it closely, I saw one piece of lottery ticket fall down .

I picked it up . With this, I now have two piece of lottery tickets .
