Suzuki is Cute Even In A Savage World

Vol. 1 - Chapter 9.6: Suzuki is Cute Even in a Savage World (6)

TL Note: WE HAVE REACHED OUR CHALLENGE GOAL! Double Feature incoming!

The sky had already turned blood-red when Excella, unable to run due to a severed tendon in her legs, somehow made it to Suzukiland at the southwestern edge of Leirune. Huge arms tore through the skies, and the Spirit of Fire looked down toward the land.

(Th-This...! Just like in Mythology...! It is beyond human understanding...!)

She had read stories about summoning a spirit from picture books or folk tales. There were also rumors that at the time of the Great Human-Demon War, several very high-ranking summoners risked their lives to summon spirits. Even so, for Excella, summoning spirits was still within the realm of picture books and folklore.

"Burn them to oblivion! Ifreet!"

The screams of the now-transformed demonic human, Noelle, struck Excella's ears. Far up in the sky, Ifreet raised its right arm. The dazzling energy comparable to a sun soon compressed in its palm.

(If a fireball like that were to fall, the entire area, would be reduced to cinders!)

Excella shuddered. And then, Ifreet's pair of eyes gazed down ahead.

"Lord Hero!"

Excella approached the hero with a limp.

"Let's run away! Before we get engulfed in fire!"

The soldiers were scattering and fleeing, but Noelle herself had her arms outstretched to welcome Ifreet. She must be planning to face off against the hero. The hero also shook his head silently at Excella's words, as if he had made up his mind to fight.

"Master Leelou even gave up her original plan and entrusted me with this town. That's why I have to protect this town."

"But!"

"It's ok. For my sake, Master thought of 48 gestures for me to save the world------ Pritis is invincible."

The profile of the hero seemed more impressive than ever before. His words were strong and full of confidence.

Even so, Excella's anxiety did not disappear.

(Will Pritis even have an effect on Ifreet!?)

"Pritis's 48 Gestures---Sixteenth Gesture, 'Petition'"

Excella clenched her fists and watched the battle between the hero and Ifreet with bated breath. And yet, the hero was---

"Ah-hem! Please excuse meee! Please stop thaaat! Pretty pleaseee!" shouting to Ifreet.

The gap between the two was so great, that Excella was almost overcome with a sense of loss of strength.

(N-No! This is the way that Lord Hero fights! This is PRITIS!)

He repeatedly called, "Please stop thaaat!" over and over again. Even so, there was no change in Ifreet. It was still putting energy into the fireball.

(UGH! Ifreet is far up in the sky! It can't hear your voice, Lord Hero!)

"L-Lord Hero!"

The hero seems to have understood her meaning and looked up silently at Ifreet.

"Pritis's 48 Gestures---First Gesture, 'Upward Glance'!"

Ifreet, which had been forming a great fireball in its palm, stopped for a moment. However, Ifreet still extended its arms wide. The energy infusion did not stop. The great fireball soon became complete.

(OMG! Pritis has NO effect in Ifreet!)

Noelle chuckled and mocked.

"KUKUKU! How could such a cheap trick ever work on a Spirit?"

Ifreet was already on the brink of throwing the fireball. Excella was in despair. And the hero, too, fell to the ground as if he had given up.

(Ah! We are done for...No...)

However, the hero did not cave in. With a wavering stance, he looked at Ifreet with upturned eyes and bit his fingernails.

"...Shift! Pritis's 48 Gestures---Eleventh Gesture, 'Nail Biting'!"

("S-Shift"!? Still maintaining "Upward Glance" and yet starting a new Pritis gesture!?)

Excella became shaken by the simultaneous activation of Pritis. A first-rate high-ranking sorcerer could simultaneously cast two magic spells without reciting a single spell chant!! Lord Suzuki could do something similar to that!?

The hero fidgeted with an upward glance while biting his nails. Excella thought he was not only cute, but also had a refined, glamorous appearance.

Excella shifted her gaze from the hero to Ifreet. The spirit looked frozen in a stance of being on the brink of throwing the fireball. The hero continued by saying---

"...Shift! Pritis's 48 Gestures---Sixteenth Gesture, 'Petition'!"

(Th-Th-Three gestures simultaneously!? No, but "Petition" is no bueno! Ifreet is far up in the sky! It can't hear his voice!)

Orneo's death. The trampled down in Suzukiland. The culmination of all these events had caused Excella to become extremely stressed and angry. She grinded her teeth.

(What the HELL are you doing?! Geez! That's the one that didn't work earlier! LEARN from it!)

Unaware of Excella's frustration, looking like a frail and helpless woman in a collapsed position, the hero even removed his fingernails from his mouth, leaving behind his nail-biting gesture. And then, his mouth started to move.

Excella realized.

(I-Is this, Lip Sync!? I cannot understand what he is saying at... all NO! If I look closely, I can tell by the way his lips are moving!)

Although she did not know how to lip-read, Excella could hear the hero's words in her mind as if he were speaking directly to her heart.

"Ple---a---se---S---top---?"

(Because of the Lip Sync, I can't hear what he is saying! However, that also brings out the cuteness of Lord Hero even more! I have a vague feeling that this is the case!)

"Upward Glance", "Nail Biting" and "Petition."

(Three Pritis gestures simultaneously. Will the effect be as great------?)

Excella looked at Ifreet, her heart almost crushed by the extreme tension.

Ifreet, who was about to unleash the huge fireball, had come to a complete stop. Eventually, the fireball in its palm shrank down and disappeared.

Ifreet's arms drooped down, and then its huge gaping maw opened. Ifreet spoke in a voice that seemed to echo from the depths of hell.

"Unfeasible...! Cute...! Can't...!"

Ifreet's body gradually faded and disappeared as if sucked into the sky. After that, only the dawn spread out. Excella shouted with delight.

"Hooray! You did it! Lord Suzuki's cuteness beat Ifreet!"

"I-I-Impossible!! This!! Can't be happening!!"

From a distance, Noelle's lips trembled with a despairing expression. She stared at the hero with a look of horror on her face.

"This is... Pritis...!"

She then plunged to her knees. The hero ran up to Noelle, defenseless.
