An Old Friend


    「Go! Seize the women! You can kill the man! 」


    At the guild master’s command, the soldiers and adventurers drew their weapons.


    Some of the adventurers were people I had only seen at the guild.


    I’m sure there are probably some I know personally too …… If possible, I didn’t want them to be part of this.


    「You three….. – if possible, don’t kill the adventurers. But the soldiers of Generate Kingdom are a different story, kill them all 」


    The three girls nod and readied themselves.


    I keep my Buster Sword fixed on my shoulder.


    Char has her wand out and ready to cast spells.


    Al held her shield and sword in front of her.


    Natalie has her wand up and is preparing her spells.


    I raised my left hand and made about twenty fireballs of the size of my head appear from it.


    The flames are pale, burning, high-temperature balls of fire.


    They’re a result of a quick application of chemistry that I had tried in private.


    When a soldier saw the colour he had never seen before, he squealed in surprise and backed away.


    I had usually created them at the size of a fist, but as a Sage, that’s not my limit.
