Volume 1 The Old Man Chapter 22: Fangs

Mihara's heart became more and more surprised as the stalemate took place.

Is this guy so rough-skinned and thick-skinned!?

Boom!

Orphnoch lifted his forearm up as if it were a car, knocking Mihara and his drill to the ground.

It slapped its arm defiantly with its other hand: there was only a small inconspicuous pit in the gray armour that had been punched by Mihara.

"How is that possible..."

Rina covered her mouth in fear.

"Rina! Get out of here! Run! ”

Mihara shouted. His palms were already sweating with fear, and even with Delta, he could feel the beads of sweat on his forehead.

The shadow on the ground in Orphnoch began to change, taking on the form of a dark green human.

"Is it over, is this all Delta power?"

Mihara stood up again, and even when he heard the sound of Rina hesitating behind him but finally starting the engine, he didn't relax a little. He tightened his grip on the gun.

"That's all there is to it...!" Orphnoch's words were filled with incomprehensible anger in Mihara's words, and he leapt to his feet, knocking him down with a punch before Mihara could pull the trigger, and the belt around his waist flew out.

"You are so weak, but you also deserve this world? He even gave the 'king'..."

Orphnoch's heavy footsteps approached Mihara, who had fallen to the ground.

"Stop!"

"Huh?"

It looked up to see the woman who had just fled, and in the back seat of her was carrying another man in a white shirt.

"Do you have a belt too?"

"No, I'm the one who came here to stop you!"

Kiba's expression became sharp, and lines appeared on his face. He was transformed into an Orphnoch in the shape of a horse, and his armor was as solid as it really was.

"Mihara! Are you okay? ”

Rina picked up Mihara who fell to the ground, but fortunately, in her opinion, Mihara was fine.

"Didn't you leave?"

"Mr. Kiba is around, and when I happened to run into it, I quickly called for help..."

Kiba's afterglow moved from the two who were still greeting each other back to the irascible looking beast.

"That's right!" Rhinoceros Orphnoch suddenly spoke, "You are the new president who replaced Murakami before!" So that's it! No wonder the 'king' died at the hands of such a weak human being, all because of you, a traitor! ”

Kiba did not answer. He didn't know how to characterize that event. Although at that time, he had already made up his mind to protect humanity and use his life to create a world where humans and Orphnoch coexist. But now, although the new SmartBrain has offered a lot of friendly conditions, he himself doesn't know how to give an explanation to his own people, even if he is resurrected, can he accept desertification again in the near future?

"Ashamed? It's too late for anything! Kill a few more humans to make our companions happy! ”

"Nope."

A long sword condensed in Kiba's hand.

"I want to know more about how we can coexist than what you think right now."

The rhinoceros was visibly shocked by his words.

"Total... Exist? How can it be!!! Haven't you ever heard of survival of the fittest? ”

"I don't have much to say to a guy like you who has lost people's hearts, and I don't expect you to understand, you have too much blood on your hands."

Kiba held his sword, and with one arrow step, he stabbed the opponent directly in the chest, and with a cluster of sparks, the rhinoceros took two steps back.

"Hypocrites. But you're much more powerful than Delta. ”

It stretched out its hands slightly, and a gray sledgehammer condensed from it.

Call!

The sledgehammer roared towards the side of Kiba's face, and he instinctively descended as his other hand condensed a gray cavalry shield. The shield rubbed against the hammer surface. Kiba, who was not hit, swung his sword forward and slashed through his opponent's lower abdomen, but the rhinoceros also kicked Kiba as he retreated.

Both sides stood still, and the rhinoceros threw out a blue ball of light, and Kiba raised his shield to stop it, but the sledgehammer came one after another, hitting the shield directly from the front.

Boom!

The loud impact made Mihara and Rina almost immediately deaf, and it took several seconds to react. When the two of them focused their distracted gaze on the fight again, they were surprised to see that Kiba, who had become in a state of passion, had somehow flicked off the opponent's hammer and condensed a large sword again, the tip of which was already pointed at the rhinoceros's neck.

"It's over."

The tip of his sword burst into blue flames.

"Wait a minute."

It was a woman's voice that didn't belong to everyone present.

Kiba looked behind the rhinoceros vigilantly, and sure enough, the person who spoke was Kageyama Tsumiko, and there were two people beside her, one of whom was tall and almost holding another person Kiba knew, Takuma Yoshiro.

"I can't let you kill him yet." Tsuneko walked slowly to Kiba's side and pressed the big sword in his hand with her hand. "The rest of my tasks, none of you are missing."

When she said this, her eyes were fixed on Kiba.

"Mission?"

"That's right, that's a unique mission for us, survivors, and of course, he has a share in the tricks you care about."

"What task?"

Tsuneko replied with a chuckle.

"Your mission, you will definitely not refuse now."

"What the hell are you talking about, you madman?"

"You're not calm now, Boy, Yuji Kiba isn't very cute!"

"Speak quickly!" Kiba grabbed her with both hands and picked her up.

"'King', you're still alive."

"What!?"

This amazement is the voice of everyone present.

"Alright, Kiba kids, now it's your turn to be ghosts and play peek-a-boo."

Tsuneko turned around and patted the rhinoceros on the shoulder: "And you, Mr. Kenhara Nishino, let's go and see the state of the 'king', how about it?" Counting you, 'NewLuckyClover' is finally assembled. ”

"Is what you said true?" The king's also..."

"Do I have to lie to you?" Tsuneko's hand rested on his shoulder, slowly emitting a golden glow.

"It's... Is this the real power of Orphnoch? ”

Surprised, Nishino felt the power surging through his body.

"This is just the tip of the iceberg, more of it, you can confirm it with the 'king' in person."

"What an honor!"

"Miss Tsuneko," the voice came out, "I don't want to face that guy..."

Before he finished speaking, Leo, who was holding him, knocked him unconscious with a slap.

"Let's go."

The backs of the other three faded away.

"Mr. Kiba!" Mihara ran to Kiba, who had turned back into a human form, "Are you alright?" We need to inform Mr. Matsuzaki and them about this immediately! ”

"Hmm..."

Kiba was a little distracted, his fists trembling slightly.
