Chapter 18.2. A Perfect And Complete Operation
-Masatoshi’s POV-
Of course, it would be difficult in real life because she is a recovery magician, but it is far better than appealing to the heroine with a suspicion that there is a story correction.
I’m a big fan of the original story, so I remember the events of the heroes. But in reality, it’s a crapshoot. The hero conveniently saves the heroine from monsters. The hero unknowingly says the words the heroine wants, and she falls in love with them. If the hero mistakenly enters the women’s bath, an erotic event with the heroine will start, which is unacceptable in reality.
Moreover, it would be almost impossible to prevent it because it isn’t clear when it will start. There is no description in the novel as to what day, time, or minute the event will take place.
So I have given up on that. Because I gave up on that, I was concerned about a beautiful girl who was not involved in the story. I want to get the beautiful girl who survived the action done by the reincarnated Yamiyo.
Therefore, I tried to order the stone golem with the thought of not attacking only that beautiful girl. I can’t harm her anyway. There is no problem if we leave her alone.
“No, it’s good to help her in a crisis. I’m going to play the hero like I’m the hero.”
The stone golem runs amok. Glancing back, I glance at those standing in fear and bewilderment. They want to stop me, but they are too troubled to admonish me, knowing my ferocious nature.
Just use one of them as a scapegoat. An inexperienced vassal let it go out of control in an attempt to test the summoned gem. And the duke’s genius flame user would prevent it. That way, I would not have to kill Yamiyo. I will not be in a bad position.
All is perfect, I said and gave the order to the stone golem.
[Golem. Do not attack the beautiful gray-haired girl and the black-haired girl. Kill the rest.]
We’ll see what happens. The gray-haired girl is in front of the stone golem. But stone golem should ignore her. That’s what I thought.
However, the stone golem reacts to the approaching gray-haired beauty and tries to raise its arm to knock her down, only to be stopped by a light chain.
“Hey! Hey, golem! That beautiful girl is not to be included in the attack!”
Impatiently, Masatohi utters the words. As Yamiyo and the others approach, they react and move just as violently, and the stone golem tries to lash out.
“Young master. …The golem cannot recognize anyone but the Lord Duke. All of them are enemies. Therefore, you should stay from the summoned beast when using them.”
As the butler approaches fearfully, I tell me some unexpected words.
“What! I didn’t hear you say that! No, so the guys who used them only used them one at a time.”
I recall the original story. The enemy organization uses powerful summoned beasts that even the protagonist struggles with, but he’s always thought they should use them in large numbers. At that time, I was convinced that it would be opportunism unique to novels. When it comes to reality, I’m astonished that this is how it gets set up. I had always thought they do not use them simply because they were rare and expensive.
I had covered the original story and read up on magic and other settings. I had thought me was synonymous with God, but when the specifications got explained to me, I didn’t listen. I would send mana and act according to my orders. That was enough.
“Damn! What am I going to do? Do we evacuate the stone golem?”
Having no choice, I think about putting the stone golem back. I wanted to enjoy watching the adventurers turn into pathetic mincemeat, but I must not mistake my priorities.
Preventing my destruction is my top priority. The fate of those who got reincarnated into the mobs. It’s the usual template. But if my life is on the line. I can’t snicker at the usual templates. Prevent destruction. That my top priority.
So I tried to order the stone golem to stop its combat action and come to me. The magic chain would not last long. Soon the adventurer’s mana would run out.
“Retreat… n?”
I looked at the stone golem, trying to send a thought.
I saw a sight beyond my imagination.
“Toriaaaa!”
A beautiful gray-haired girl shouted in a voice that echoed up here and swung her matchstick-like mace down on the stone golem with all her might.
It was an attack that did not hurt the stone golem, but somehow the stone golem was shaken, and its body, which was the same hardness as a jewel, was beginning to crack.
“Huh? Wait, wait, wait, wait! Could that girl possibly could use a strong martial art on the stone?”
Surprised, I took me face away from the binoculars and was astonished. Looking through the binoculars again, the gray-haired girl attacks more and more. With each attack, the cracks on the stone golem grow larger.
“Hey, that’s 3 billion yen! Stop, stop it~!”
The stone golem is 3 billion dollars worth of magical jewelry. And it’s rare and hard to find one. If the summoned beast is destroyed, the jewel will shatter and become trash.
Screaming and panicking, I forgot to return the stone golem and watched the mysterious scene.
So the stone golem, which was supposed to be destroyed, tore off the light chain and began to attack.
