Monster Musume Harem wo Tsukurou!

Chapter 97: Breakthrough

The next morning, many demons were gathered in the lobby of the building where we are lurking. Despite the fact that there aren't many on our side, everyone has a certain style. I guess that the level of magic we have is high. Among us, Yukurishisu is especially different. She is supposed to be hiding her identity, but she stands on the top naturally. Surely, royalty has charismatic skills.

“Sorry, I let you wait." Tsuchio

“I really waited...what were you doing?” Yukurishisu

“I was just making preparations... " Tsuchio

“Are you ready, outrider? Do you need more careful preparations?" Yukurishisu

From around, many eyes look at me. Our party of human and demons are made of minotaur-like demons with heavy armor and other races. In fact, I'm the only human.

“Of course, I will take Ruu back. No matter how carefully prepared you are, it is not enough." Tsuchio

“You said that yesterday, right? Since Tsuchio is impatient, you will be the outrider. Leave Ruu to us..." Yukurishisu

“I don't like that.” Tsuchio

The line of sight from the surroundings get hard. If you look from the side, it’s just saying that I'm not skilled. From those who seriously want to manage this situation, they are nothing but obstacles.

“It is not the time to be selfish now, even a living idiot at only ten years old would understand. If you want to complain, first show your skill..." Toururi

“I know that. I just want to get Ruu back. For the time being, as I told you, I will do as you planned, but as soon as Ruu appears, I will definitely fight. I know Ruu the best." Tsuchio

“You're pretty confident, but aren't you overwhelmingly inferior to Ruu?" Toururi

“Toururi-san knows it, too. I don't decide to fight her with simple ability. I don't know Ruu′s constitution but I am familiar with her." Tsuchio

“...Can you win?" Toururi

“I will win, definitely. I cannot lose." Tsuchio

“Well certainly, Ruu's ability will be a threat to our final strategy.... It is certainly the best to make Tsuchio fight her. No one can decide the ability only by the amount of magical power." Yukurishisu

“But...what do you do, older sister?" Toururi

“Do you know where Ruu is?” Yukurishisu

“I know it only vaguely, but I think it will be clear when I get closer." Tsuchio

“...I understand. Ruu is a strong enemy and we are only a few people. We can't spare much people. Let's leave Ruu to Tsuchio and his familiars. Keep your word and beat her." Yukurishisu

“Thank you very much.” Tsuchio

“Indeed, when it's about Ruu, Tsuchio will become stubborn enough to do his own thing." Yukurishisu

“Even if it's not Ruu who has been manipulated, I would take her back. If I had been opposed here, I would have moved without permission." Tsuchio

“I thought that would be the case, so I approved it. Well then...let's go!" Yukurishisu

Wait, Ruu...as I promised that night, I will definitely return you to sanity!

With a formal arrangement of heavy equipped mercenaries in front and beside us, we push through the main street leading to the tower. Whether the other party was going to pass through here or not, a lot of ordinary people are walking around with knives or logs. I can't do anything either physically or morally. There is no second time!

“We can run through at once! There is no help for a certain degree of injury, let's push through and proceed!"

『Ooooo!!!』

Reinforcement magic is applied to the people who are beside and in front of us and they don't complain about minor attacks. Moreover, the opponents are ordinary citizens. No matter how heavy their body is, they aren't professional mercenaries.

“Magic comes flying from the front! Perhaps it is the magicians at the tower!"

“Let's put down the barrier! Magicians, ready to go..."

“Please leave it to me! Everyone, don't slow down!" Tsuchio

Various kinds of magic approach from the front like fireballs, wind blades, and earth spears. I got on Rin and took a short distance to the party. I grab a lot of talismans from my sleeve.

“Rin, Nichrome! I will stop the monsters with my walls! Shoot down all the magics that are approaching! And don’t stop moving!” Tsuchio

“”Understood!!””

I use both hands to throw some talismans into the sky. They explode and create a big wall, before the various magic attacks collide against it. A lot of holes are created by the impact and I quickly add more talismans to repair the wall immediately. I made a large amount of wall type talismans yesterday, along with offensive talismans!" I have also enclosed the walls and continue to move forward!

I seriously faced the magic without compromising on speed and proceeded forward. Occasionally some magic gets through the holes of the wall, but they are intercepted by Rin′s lightning arrows or Nichrome's bullets.

“...Besides the commoners, there are still many people being manipulated or not? And why won't they come out at all?"

“Are they arranged on other streets?" Tsuchio

“That can be so. Well, it's convenient for us, so we don't need to mind it."

“There is absolutely not such a thing.... It was a small square around that tower, right? The enemy would only build a simple barrier there." Tsuchio

“That possibility is high...splendid insight, Tsuchio."

“No, I just saw the plaza." Tsuchio

“Ah, so..."

It is seen from the hole of the wall and wagons are lying down on the street end as a barricade and a wall is made by magic. On top of that, figures who look like marksmen or magicians are on the roof. If we get stuck, we'll be shot from around the beehive. Indeed, it is difficult to defend an omni-directional attack.

“Inside?"

“The heavy armored mercenaries should wait firmly. It is quite common for the general public...but is it dangerous to bring them into a battlefield?"

“I don't want to make casualties as much as possible, but I know that I can not say that."

“No, you cannot afford it. What do we do?"

“Break through one point of the entrance and after defeating the enemy, we defend ourselves by raising a defensive formation near the entrance. We can't create a heavy burden, so we will crush the enemies with haste! Tyres, Toururi!"

The mercenaries are pushed to the side and Tyres and Toururi-san came forward. Will they destroy that barrier?

“As I said, I will proceed to the entrance of the tower at once! Destroy that wall!"

“Leave it to me!"

“Tsuchio, I'm begging you to cover us!”

The two of them moved forward. How could they break that wall like that? It's a wall made of magic, so I think it's quite hard. When I think so, the two of them changed. Every step of them becomes bigger by increasing the distance.

Their height grew in a moment and made them twice as big as before in an instant. It looks like their mass increased and the stone pavement remains clear. Magic is so amazing....

Both of them who became giants thrust into the barricades. The wall made of magic was shattered like glass and the wood wagons and the people on top were blown to the square. Without stopping the momentum, those two rush into the square. The person who is looking at its feet firmly or isn't crushed are blown away. They went until the entrance near the front of the street, before they finally stopped. After going back and forth like that, it was like I’m breaking the Ten Commandments.

“We will thrust in like them!"

That's where we are running. The magicians are left behind, but the half of the wall is moved backwards to prevent it. The path of retreat is buried within the people but... if you think about the last one standing, there sure is a lot of spirit.

“Father, where is elder sister?" Lime

“...There, inside this tower. It isn't strong yet so I think she is further upwards." Tsuchio

When the connection of magic was cut, I had no idea how to get it back, and was desperate.... This connection is the sign that Ruu left and will lead us towards her.

“Tsuchio, Ruu is inside!?"

“I guess that's right, let's rush quickly!"

“Of course! The rush squad will follow you going inside! The rest of us, will defend this entrance! The worst will be that we retreat to the middle, so don't cause deaths as much as possible!”

The entrance has quite a big arch shape, which also shows the appearance of the inside. There seem to be no hidings and a lot of people are seen in the lobby. There is a spiral staircase inside with several entrances adjacent to it. Because the magicians are on the stairs, it seems to be aggravating from there.

“When entering from here, magic will fall down from the top... Even if we are supported by Tsuchio's defense, the easiest way is to target from the outside, which is tough as expected."

“Shall everyone hold their shields up and thrust inside?"

“The other side doesn't mind being worried if the magic hits a friend. Will it grow bigger again? Oh, that stairway will not be able to rise."

“Why isn't it just a little smaller?”

We are preparing separately while thinking how the rush team is going to stick with us. Putting Lime behind me is firmly decided. I have to walk alongside Nichrome and I have a good idea of how to do that.

“Okay, I’ll leave the control of the barrier to you. Rin, let’s just run up. Nichrome can't fly together, so just follow us properly, ok?” Tsuchio

“There is no problem, I will eliminate all obstacles and proceed forward." Rin

“I can’t kill… so I will assist you as much as I can, but it will be painful to keep up." Tsuchio

“That’s promising, Master...somehow, it’s as if the slime had eaten a great magic." Nichrome

“No, I’ve already said that Nichrome is reliable… and that you have changed.” Tsuchio

I mean, it's a reliable thing that she has feelings, right? Before, she was just saying that emotions are useless.

“I can't throw off my emotions; now, I should use them effectively. If Master will assist me, my movement will be much easier. Also, there is a big change in stress value between being psychologically angered by your opponents and friends you can rely on..." Nichrome

“Yes, Nichrome is relieved as usual. Yukurishisu, please come with us as we are going first." Tsuchio

“Tsu, tsuchio!? Don't decide by yourself without permission..." Yukurishisu

“I'm telling you I will be the decoy! Because the bottom of them can not be minded, please break through them somehow!" Tsuchio

“Being a decoy is too dangerous, I cant permit that!" Yukurishisu

“It is not the time to say so! I am sorry for the time to talk like this, but I will go!" Tsuchio

Saying so, Rin, Lime and I rushed into the tower after setting a barrier. After that, Nichrome also follows.

“Tsuchio! Oh, I told you not to move on your own! There is no other way, everyone lets go!"

“Therefore, I told you to have him wait outside..."

“You won't be disappointed if you regret it, we will break through while Tsuchio is the decoy!"

As soon as we enter the tower, a mass of magic pours from the top. The density is high because the range is narrow unlike the time when we progressed through the street. The talisman wall will be pushed to its limit sooner or later. But now, Lime and I are in Rin's barrier. Because I control and concentrate her magic from the top, no matter how dense it is, it won't tear easily. Magic which is aimed at Nichrome is also released, but she moves by sewing between the enemies and dodges it well. Well, I have to help Nichrome while heading up.

“Both of you, hold on tightly! From now on, it will shake!" Rin

“Yes, I won't let off even if I die! Yeah, even if my body is going to die, my heart will always belong to father..." Lime

“That's not what I meant! It's not that I don't want to be loved by Tsuchio!” Rin

Rin runs inside the tower and draws a circle. Nichrome opened the way with her gunfire and we reached the stairs. When we start going up, I made a wall with magic in front of me. All right, that's my part! Nichrome cast a mark on the side. Then, a earth pillar extended from the stairs and made a road diagonally to the stairs. We move to the pillar immediately and go up as it is with Nichrome. Magic is released from the front, but I throw talismans again and create another route. Nichrome avoids the magic and heads up more and more. I'm afraid that the earth pillars will break, but as a safety measure, I used many talismans to make them more durable. It won't be broken so easily.

“Father, a small powerful magic comes from the left back diagonally below!" Lime

Magic will collide with the barrier according to Lime's warning. Strengthening the defense that magic will hit, a light impact will strike us and the barrier won't break. It is hard to skip symbols while manipulating magical powers, but Nichrome is moving more severely. She has to help...!

“!! I found Ruu! She is directly over here...at the top! Hurry, Rin!" Tsuchio

“You don't need to say that!” Rin

I feel it clearly...it is unnaturally quiet, but not particularly disturbed. Wait, I will go help now.

Accelerating Rin and Nichrome, we are completely separated from Yukurishisu′s party, but because of Nichrome shooting the magicians while moving, it would be comfortable for them to go up. Nevertheless, I have to concentrate on Ruu now. Before fighting, we need to encounter her with full power!

“Everyone, prepare for the battle with Ruu!...It's almost time to warm up your body." Tsuchio

And we reached the end of the stairs. Somehow, when approaching the end there was no enemy.... It seems to me that it is meaningless to the guy who will be here so far.

Rin walks down the stairs between the wall. Eventually, the stairs that were broken in sight entered the eyes. · · · Finally, did we reach Ruu's former place?

“Are you all ready for this? First of all, it's a preemptive victory."

“I have no problem, the first leading role is Rin-chan."

“Your magic is enough to make a blow with full strength."

“I can also go. Well, are you ready for it, master?"

“...Yes, I can go anytime. Then, let's go pick up the rampaging princess. Everyone, are you prepared for it?"

"Yes. My body belongs to father." Lime

“Yes. My life is in Tsuchio hands.” Rin

“Of course. Use this body as you like.” Nichrome

『Yes. This force is yours.』Shadow-san

“...Thank you. Everyone, let's return alive!” Tsuchio

After looking around at everyone's faces, we rushed outside. The sight is a large hall and a red figure stands in the center. That person who was looking at us with emptiness set up her fists.

Thus, we will begin the battle with Ruu.
