Jujutsushi Wa Yuusha Ni Narenai

Chapter 206.2 - Tragedy

DAGUBA, ZORUBADOGI(Natsukawa-san, don't jump out on your own, that's too dangerous.)

Just as I was thinking about evacuating this place, another human appeared.

That guy swinging his dazzling sword of light was slaying my comrades in one slash.

It was such a beautiful slash, and yet, I knew that he had yet to go all out.

This guy was a monster.

Govu elite of the capital, no, maybe not even a gogma general could hope to match him. I, who was still a govu, couldn't even hope to see the bottom of his power.

Nba, zo~ma(Ah, Souma-kun)

Baju, goguba, momo, degoruga(Rest assured, Momokawa has already secured the honey).

He was talking carefreely to the knife-wielder. Perhaps because he was in a really advantageous situation and strong on top of that he hadn't even unleashed his killing intent on me as if to say that he could easily kill me with a simple swing of his sword.

Dammit, just how much are these fi*thy humans going to look down upon me

Boss, use this chance to escape from this place.

When I was about to rush at them in anger, a govu stood before me.

He was my best friend who had accompanied me all the way from the capital. Except for my childhood friend, he was the one who knew me the longest.

In fact, he was the vice chief of this village.

Are you telling me, a chief to escape first!

It's exactly because you're the chief that you have to escape first! And you're entrusted with Ouma-sama's daughter on top of that.

Kuh!

You have to protect her no matter what. That's your mission.

But you guys will

Don't worry about us. We will try to buy time before following you.

You idiot, stop trying to spit such lies to me. Quit acting tough, ain't yer hand trembling from fear already!

Sorry, we will survive and restore this village.

Yeah, I'll leave the rest to you, buddy.

I turned around and ran as I held back my tears.

Buga, bogudogura!(Ah, the boss-like guy has escaped!)

Bedouda, momo, zogara(Leave that one to Momokawa)

I heard my comrades' warcries amidst the human's bored voice. Even so, I didn't look back. I still had my mission. As a chief, no, as a man, I should never waste their sacrifice.

Guys, are you okay?

Honey!

What happened outside? Has the enemy already been defeated?

Upon returning to my tent, both my wives asked me anxiously while carrying our kids. They had already brought a minimum amount of luggage, ready to escape from this place.

Terrifying human raid. We have to escape, we can't defeat them.

Eh, human!?

But, where are we escape to?

Anywhere, we have to at least leave this village first!

It was a race against time.

Alas, I definitely couldn't let go of one thing, namely the pot of sugar that I received from Ouma-sama a few days ago. I tied it onto my waist. Okay, the preparation is complete.

Okay, let's go!

The first thing we had to do after we left our tent was look for an escape route.

Those humans had already occupied the main gate, but there was a second entrance to this village.

So we were heading to that place, but

DOUBA! GORUZEA!(Oraoraora, DIEDIEDIE!)

BIGU, ZABARAGUA!(KILL THEM ALL!)

GORUGYABARA, MOMO, JANDOGA(Man, this is already a genocide, Momokawa ain't joking)

The humans with sword, axe, and water magic entered from the second entrance. Around them were the corpses of the armed men who got slaughtered by them Moreover, the corpses of women and children who tried to escape were also scattered around them.

Kuh, that human went that far, huh.

Ah, that's

Though I got flustered upon seeing another three humans raid the village from another direction, my children and wives were both despaired by this situation.

Naturally, they would have never imagined such a cruel spectacle to exist. I mean, our peaceful village had suddenly turned into hell on Earth.

Now listen to me, grit your teeth and run as fast as you can, don't let them catch you.

Though crying, my wives nodded gallantly. The same went for my children. What brave children they are! They gritted their teeth in response.

Let's go, we're going to the back entrance.

The only escape route left was the small backdoor that wouldn't normally be used normally.

I led my family to that place.

GYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

HEELP! I DON'T WANT TO DIEEEEEEEE!

STOOOP! SPARE MY CHIIIIIIIIIILD!

Such maddening screams resounded throughout the village.

There seemed to be more humans than I met. All of them were equipped with the finest weapons on par with the ones used by the elite of the capital. They slaughtered every single goma they met, sparing none.

Whether it was the fighting male, or the escaping female, even the innocent children were not spared from their cruelty. They killed everything in sight like a cold-blooded killer.

We did it, there's no human at the backdoor entrance!

The backdoor entrance was made right next to the marshland we used to breed pigfrog. Since it was located in a rather desolate place, those humans might have thought that no one would use this place as an escape route. Or anyone who tried to use this way had already been slain long before they arrived.

Now, listen carefully. You must never let go of my hands. We're going to traverse animal trails in the forest right after this. You mustn't stray from the trail if you don't want to get lost in the forest.

After leaving from the backdoor entrance, we who managed to escape from the village that had already turned into hell on earth forced our way through the dark forest.

I used cantella magic which I learnt after retiring from my post as a warrior in the capital to light our path as we ran in the forest.

The forest was wrapped in an eerie silence as if the commotion in the village a while ago was an illusion.

If only all of this was a mere nightma

AAAH, GUGIGA(Ah, they really came)

!?

Something akin to a specter had already been waiting for us ahead of the animal trail.

It was a small human. Perhaps a child. Obviously much shorter compared to the other humans who attacked the village.

Though every human who raided the village released terrifying pressure, I couldn't feel such pressure from the human child before me.

Gyaba, gongerua(As expected, they used this route to escape)

I'll kill that human. We will run as fast as we can after I kill this human.

There was only one human here. I just had to kill that guy and escape before the other humans caught up to us.

Calm down, no need to worry, there's still hope.

H-Honey

Don't worry, that short human won't be able to defeat me.

I placed the cantella on my hips and drew my sword.

That shorty only had a cane with a skull on its tip and didnt even take a stance.

How dare that human underestimate me!Feeling elated because the raid in the village succeeded, eh? That vanity will cost your life.

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

I rushed forward, closing in the distance at once.

I raised my sword overhead and loaded my magical power into it.

I swung my sword down, unleashing martial arts while raising a warcr

AH!?

M-My leg Something caught my leg!

The moment I noticed that my body that had rushed at full speed lost its balance, and tumbled straight to the ground. The martial arts that I was about to unleash had also gotten canceled.

Guuu!

The moment I fell forward, I came to a realization. This human had already set a trap in this dark forest.

The thing that tripped my foot was long, hard, and black similar to human hair.

Dammit!

Pugya~(Pugya~)

When I tried to stand up to regain my stance, the short human sneered while pointing at me.

The next moment, I felt heaven and earth get overturned.

FUDGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

My body stumbled again, not falling like before. Rather, the ground got away from me Did my feet got pulled up!?

An arachne

I finally noticed it after I got suspended in the air.

The thing that coiled around my body was solid, white spider thread. And the owner of that thread had already been waiting atop the tree, they had the lower body of a spider and upper half of human. The arachne.

L-Let go of me!

Why did an arachne appear now of all time? No, there should be no arachne in this forest. Even if they did live here, they should be living in the ruine No, something is amiss.

This arachne seems familiar.
