Re:Zero World
The green-haired fruit vendor's veins bulged; he wanted to press Natsuki Subaru's head right into a melon.
That was the first time he had asked if Subaru wanted to buy an apple.
And what's more, the guy still didn't end up buying any fruit from him.
In a small alley not far away.
The trio of thugs were completely numb. This was their first appearance? It was over. Just how many times had they shown up now?
Now that people all over the worlds knew them, would those they had robbed form a group to hunt them down?
Thinking of this, they were so scared they moved overnight to live in the countryside.
In a tavern somewhere.
The Bowel Hunter, Elsa, crushed the wine glass in her hand, her eyes turning extremely cold.
"No wonder it felt strange the first time we met. So you've seen me so many times already~"
"However, if you can resurrect constantly, does that mean I can keep cutting you open~"
As she thought about this, Elsa grew excited. She never tired of slicing open intestines.
In the Royal Capital.
The Sword Saint who patrolled daily, Reinhardt, looked at Natsuki Subaru.
"If I could have met you earlier, would you have suffered less?"
He also never expected that Natsuki Subaru was a dimension traveler. That might be the reason for his completely different attitude.
In a deep mountain cave.
Petelgeuse Romanée-Conti, the Archbishop of Sloth, rolled his eyes and roared madly.
"Ohhhh ~ Natsuki Subaru ~ You are so slothful...!"
Terrifying screams continued to echo in the cave. He finally understood how Subaru had been able to dodge his attacks.
Roswaal Mansion
"Subaru, I'm so sorry!"
A sober Emilia clasped her hands together, apologizing repeatedly to Subaru. If it weren't for her, Subaru wouldn't have fallen into so many crises.
She truly was a witch... bringing misfortune to others...
And she shouldn't have used the name of the Jealous Witch to deceive Natsuki Subaru.
It was all her fault, causing Emilia to fall into deep self-blame.
"Emilia-tan, please don't blame yourself!"
"Even if you hadn't asked for my help, I would have definitely helped you."
Subaru smiled. Now he didn't care about his own deaths at all, not even the previous ones.
Perhaps he was just used to dying now....
He simply wanted to help Emilia.
Somewhere in the World
The Jealous Witch Satella, who should have still been sealed within the crystal, slightly opened her eyes and murmured: "Subaru... all... all mine..."
Instantly, thousands of shadows stretched out, blotting out the sky and sun.
But they soon vanished again.
The Witches of Sin also saw the contents of the light screen and were utterly shocked, feeling the world was about to undergo drastic changes.
"This is Satella's authority – Return by Death!"...
[The Screen Continues]
[After returning, Natsuki Subaru saw the silver-haired girl on the street and called her Satella. However, this name belonged to the Jealous Witch, which made the girl very angry....]
[She decided to ignore the person in front of her and left quickly, but the thief Felt snatched her badge away....]
[The girl hurriedly gave chase because the badge was very important to her....]
[However, Subaru knew where the item was and went to find Felt. On the way, he encountered the thug trio again....].....
"Damn it, stop showing up already!"
The thug trio were initially confused about why they were being mentioned so many times.
So this was why. Except for the first time, when they had the upper hand, the second time they accidentally stabbed him, and the next few times they were violently beaten up. We swear we'll never rob again!.....
[On Screen]
[Subaru had no intention of dealing with them and successfully attracted a guard by screaming....]
[However, when they saw someone coming, they were stunned....]
[A man with red hair, a sword at his waist, and gorgeous attire... It was the Sword Saint. They were so frightened they scrambled to escape....]
[The red-haired swordsman introduced himself to Subaru; his name was Reinhardt... Inharut, the strongest human of the current era, a super overpowered character...]....
"What does 'super overpowered character' mean? Does it have some meaning?"
Reinhardt looked puzzled. He always felt these three words carried some malice towards him.
But he couldn't quite articulate it. Perhaps it was a nickname given to him by the owner of the light screen.
Thinking about it that way, it made a lot of sense.
As expected. He was perfect!....
[On Screen]
[Subaru thanked the Sword Saint for his help, hurriedly left the area, and came to the loot house again...]
[Eventually, the girl also found the loot house through her search, and Subaru was there too...]
[Just as the girl was very angry and about to use magic to force Felt to hand over the badge, Natsuki Subaru saw the familiar blade glint behind the girl....]
["Puck! Deploy defense now!"]
[At this critical moment, Puck reacted swiftly, deploying an ice shield that blocked the kukri's attack....]
["An elf... It's an elf..."]
[Elsa kept muttering, her eyes growing sharper. She had never cut open an elf's belly before....]
[However, before she could act, endless ice shards instantly shot towards her...]
[Elsa was instantly frozen into a block of ice, but due to a magic artifact she wore, the ice quickly cracked and shattered....]
[Puck kept attacking, and Elsa had no choice but to keep dodging. The dense hail of ice shards made it impossible for her to get close....]
[Just before Puck was about to disappear, he launched a giant icicle. To avoid it, Elsa tore her frozen foot free regardless, instantly tearing skin and flesh....]
[Puck also ran out of magic power, and his body gradually faded away, leaving the girl to deal with Elsa alone....]
["The elf is gone... What a pity..."]....
Overlord World - The Great Tomb of Nazarick
"Lord Ainz, this spirit is so cute. I think I want one...."
Aura pointed at Puck, as excited as a 6-year-old child. Although the creatures here were scary, it seemed she had never encountered a spirit like this.
"Perhaps the spirits are hiding somewhere in this world..."
Ainz patted Aura's head, feeling very fond of her. These Guardians were his children.
Trying to fulfill the children's wishes was what an old father like him should do.
"Lord Ainz, I want one too!"
Albedo took the opportunity to lean in, looking expectant.
"Uh... Okay!"
Ainz smelled the fragrance wafting towards him, his pupils trembled, and with a green light flashing over him, he instantly regained his composure....
[On Screen]
[Elsa froze her bleeding sole with ice, left an afterimage on the spot, and continuously attacked the girl....]
[Because her speed was too fast, the girl couldn't attack actively and could only defend passively....]
[Subaru, hiding to the side, recalled the scenes of their previous deaths, and his legs wouldn't stop shaking....]
[At this moment, Old Man Rom stood up, ready to step in and help. If this continued, the girl would be defeated sooner or later....]
[Boom!]
[The girl's ice shield was split apart by Elsa's blade, and then she was kicked in the waist....]
[The powerful force sent her flying instantly, landing on a railing. Before she could steady herself....]
[Elsa kept spinning in the air, building momentum, and then slashed down with her sharp blade...]
[The entire railing was cut in half. The girl accidentally fell to the ground, and the broken wood collapsed, burying her....]
["Here I come!"]
[Old Man Rom rushed over at this moment and violently attacked Elsa. However, the gap in their strength was vast, and he was defeated in just a few moves....]
[As he was about to be struck down, Felt intervened, blocking the fatal blow....]
[But her neck was still grazed, blood spurted out, and she fell heavily to the ground, her condition unknown....]
[Just as Felt was about to charge forward, Subaru stopped her and told her what to do next....]
[Covered by Subaru, Felt successfully escaped....]
[Boom!]
[Elsa charged in with her blade. She hadn't expected one of her prey to escape, which made her very angry. She continuously attacked Subaru....]
[Because the two were fighting closely, the girl couldn't aim her spells immediately, and Subaru's injuries grew more severe....]
[Subaru tried to repeat his previous trick, but Elsa saw through it easily. Instead, she grabbed his ankle, raised the kukri, and prepared to strike down....]
[At that moment...]
["That's enough!"]
[A sound of something breaking through the air came from above. The roof was shattered by some force, filling the air with dust....]
[As the smoke cleared, a red-haired man stood quietly in front of them....]
["That was really dangerous just now..."]
["But it's great that I made it in time...."]
[Reinhardt simply stood there, and the very air seemed to yield unconsciously....]
["Alright!"]
["Let the final act begin..."]
[Reinhardt looked back at Subaru with a smile, apologizing for being late....]
[But it was okay now...]
["The unique black sword of the northern kingdom... Are you the Bowel Hunter?"]
[Elsa licked her lips seductively, quite interested in him...]
[Reinhardt didn't care about her words, but warned her. This was his extreme confidence in his own strength....]
[Although she had a notorious reputation and was feared by others, in front of him, she was just a minor character....]
["I have many questions for you, and I hope you will surrender obediently...."]
(He was giving her a chance...)...
The knights of the kingdom looked at Reinhardt with admiration. This was the world's strongest swordsman.
Even the Bowel Hunter was no match for the Sword Saint!
"Why do I feel like Reinhardt is showing off? Is it my imagination?" Julius held his chin and murmured.
He wondered if he could learn this kind of effortless, innate coolness. He felt it would be awesome to speak like that....
[On Screen]
[Elsa did not heed the advice and instead took the initiative to attack...]
["I don't wish to be too rude towards a lady...."]
[Reinhardt did not draw his sword, but instead took a step forward. The ground instantly cracked, and a powerful shockwave rapidly spread from his feet....]
[BOOM!!!]
[Elsa was kicked away, tumbling several times on the ground. She knelt and looked at Reinhardt, fighting spirit in her eyes....]
["The rumors are true... No... Stronger than the rumors..."]
["I wonder if it meets your expectations..."]
["Why aren't you using that sword on your waist?"]
[Reinhardt placed his hand on his sword and said helplessly, "This sword can only be drawn when necessary..."]
["If the blade remains sheathed, it means the time has not yet come..."]
(The implication was that this guy thought she wasn't worthy enough for it to be drawn.)
[Reinhardt picked up a nearby ordinary sword, held it in his hand, and looked calmly at Elsa. To deal with her, an ordinary sword was enough....]
["I'm truly being looked down upon...."]
[With a hint of anger, Elsa continuously attacked, but no matter how she struck, she couldn't make him move a single step....]
[Seeing this, Subaru thought Reinhardt had no way to deal with Elsa....]
[However... That wasn't the case...]
[Because once he acted, the mana in the surrounding world would gather towards him, and the mana being used to heal Old Man Rom would also be sucked away....]
[He waited until the girl finished healing the wound on Old Man Rom's neck...]
[Subaru raised his hand and shouted to Reinhardt, "Reinhardt! I don't really get it, but go for it!"]
[Reinhardt nodded. Suddenly, terrifying mana condensed around him, and the sword in his hand emitted a vibrating sound....]
["Let you experience the sword skill of the Astrea family..."]
[Elsa's expression turned grave, and the hand holding the kukri trembled slightly....]
[——『Bowel Hunter: Elsa Granhilte』]
[——『Sword Saint Family: Reinhardt Van Astrea』]
[The surrounding mana turned into points of light, continuously condensing into the sword, gradually shifting from blue light to white light. In this dark night, the light was as bright as starlight!]
["Hah!"]
[Reinhardt swung his sword down. A pillar of light dozens of meters tall enveloped the area. The powerful force formed a violent gust, sweeping through the space...]
["BOOM!!!"]
[The area dozens of meters in front of Reinhardt was utterly obliterated....]
[Subaru was dumbfounded witnessing this scene. He must be the protagonist!]
["You're a real monster!"]
["Hearing you say that hurts, Subaru~"]
[Reinhardt looked at the shattered sword in his hand, destroyed by his own power until it completely turned to ashes and dissipated, and said somewhat apologetically:
"Sorry for the trouble... Rest in peace..."]
[Sword: "If I am guilty, please let me be reforged in my old age... If my sins are grave, please melt me down and add me to another sword... Rather than turning to dregs and ashes in Reinhardt's hands..."]
