One-two-one-two, maze expert Penglai Mountain Huiye?
"We don't have a specific name for power. Whether it's spiritual power or magic power. It's all powers that can be used against alien beasts. ”
Hiiragi Asuka's sword waved lightly and replied with some emotion.
"It doesn't matter what the power is, as long as it achieves the goal...... Well, that's a pretty good and pure reason. ”
Generally speaking, when talking about mysterious organizations hidden in the unknown 'world', most people will associate all kinds of complex plots and bizarre factors. However, the association called Nemesis to which Hiiragi Asuka belongs, made Mt. Penglai Kaguya feel 'pure'.
Although this feeling only comes from the girl in front of me. Maybe the rest of her organization wasn't as pure as she was. It's possible that she's even the only one so pure. But it is precisely because he has lived long enough and seen enough things that Penglai Mountain Kaguya knows better than ordinary people that there are many things in this world that are not as complicated as onlookers imagine.
The young man who wants to get ahead and work hard does not have any great pursuits, he just wants to make more money, and this desire does not come from some painful experience at a young age. He can even be born in a relatively wealthy family, but the small wealth of the family is not enough to satisfy his material desires that continue to climb.
The 'heroes' who did not hesitate to throw their heads and shed blood to follow their followers to overthrow a dynasty's 'heroes' have never had the fearless courage to look at death as described in the novel. He constantly forced himself not to run away before every battle, and the so-called merit he achieved after he was lucky to survive was only because other people who deserved more praise than him did not have his luck.
Many seemingly extraordinary people in the world are not necessarily different in their hearts. Perhaps they not only encountered opportunities and seized them actively or passively, but indeed had some abilities beyond ordinary people. However, the success of these people may not be as beautiful, as difficult and worthy of praise as others seem.
The so-called history is written by the victors, in fact, Penglai Mountain Kazuya is clearer, and sometimes history is worshiped by the victors, written with their own infinitely beautified fantasies. Just like those idol stars, there are always so many flawless in the minds of fans. A bad temper is a 'real' character, a bad ability is 'no sense of distance', and even if the appearance is not satisfactory, it can be beautified as 'natural'. As long as the hearts of those fans have not been taken away by other new idols, then their idols are real 'stars' whose shortcomings can become advantages.
Nemesis, the legendary goddess of vengeance, represents just punishment and inescapable heavenly punishment. This seems to be a very 'powerful' word.,In fact, it's been used badly in all kinds of two-dimensional works that Kaguya often watches and plays.。 If any student always puts this word on his lips, it is undoubtedly evidence of secondary 2 disease for his classmates.
However, such a name that has long been 'rotten street' is used by the organization to which Hiiragi Asuka belongs, but it is so simple and appropriate. Because it was a group of unfortunate people who had suffered disasters because of the other world and the strange beasts, gathered together, and each made efforts to take revenge on the other world and the strange beasts, and give them punishment.
For a person who only wants revenge, whether the weapon in his hand should be called a sword or a sword is indeed an insignificant matter. It was enough for him to know that the weapon in his hand could pierce the skin of his enemy, pierce his enemy's internal organs, and take the life of his enemy.
"Is there anything else you need to prepare?"
Penglai Mountain Kaguya really looked at this girl a little differently, and instead of 'starting the game' by himself, he held his arms and waited for Hiiragi Asuka.
"Yes, I need to record the data detected here first. Please wait a minute, just open the program and you're good to go. ”
The ability to come from another world combined with modern technology feels rather strange, a bit absurd that is neither scientific nor magical. Levi and Horaiyama Kaguya waited for Hiiragi Asuka to operate the phone, and the two of them felt like they were playing a game.
Although not only is the harsh environment in this otherworld visible to the naked eye, but there is also an aura of terrible danger that even ordinary people can feel. However, for these two unusual people, especially the unusual woman, it seems that it is the same as the background music and sound effects that are essential to enhance the atmosphere in the game?
"Thank you, we...... It's time to go. ”
Although Hiiragi Asuka must have had the experience of entering the other world with other people before. Especially when she was still a fledgling rookie, she must have had that period of internship when she always had to be taken by a reliable senior to enter the other world.
It's just that seniors, even those who are already very old are not suitable for being called seniors, and Hiiragi Asuka is only a little less nervous because someone is protecting her in front of her. Far from being like this, not only did Levy and Penglai Yama Kaguya stare at her without a sense of nervousness, but even Hiiragi Asuka herself vaguely felt as if she was traveling with a friend she had just met.
It's just that if you want to travel with others, Hiiragi Asuka, who should be considered a tour guide, can't walk in front of everyone like a professional tour guide, holding a small flag or something to lead the way in front.
Although Hiiragi Asuka is the oldest qualified expert among the three to deal with this other world. However, Levi and Pengraiya only waited for her to get ready at first, and when she told the two that they could go, the two of them went to the depths of the labyrinth one after the other, without any intention of letting Hiiragi Asuka lead the way.
"Anyway, this kind of otherworld seems to be a labyrinth, isn't it? For those who come in for the first time, the maze is not much worse than whoever walks in front of it. And when it comes to the art of finding your way through the maze, I consider myself an expert with a lot of experience. ”
Pengraiya said this to Hiiragi, who wanted her to wait with Levi first. The rich experience of finding her way through the maze that she talked about is naturally the 'experience' she has of walking the maze in various games. Even if Levi had told Hiiragi Asuka before that he had brought someone who was very interested in this otherworldly labyrinth because he loved to play games, she couldn't have imagined that Kaguya would take the things in the game seriously at this time.
