Isekai Shoukan wa Nidome Desu

After hearing about Dezas marriage, we departed from the village the next day. The deadline is three days including today. Normally it takes two days to move so the grace period is one day. Although we will make it in time during the ceremony, Im afraid that we may not be sufficiently prepared if we take the battle into consideration.

For that purpose the method I took was the transfer magic formation Brad used. If its Brad, we need several days worth of magic power in order to activate the magic formation, but if its my magic power, only one days worth is needed to activate it like hell it is. I shared magic power with both Levia and Brad, and were barely able to activate it.

I was clean without any magic power so Ive decided to spend all day sleeping, but being able to shorten the activation from two days to one is great. Well, the next day we could barely move, but thanks to that we were able to prepare ourselves to some extent.

and thats how I got here, any question? (Setsu)

I-I understand the gist of it. But wheres Brad, Levia and that merchants daughter that came with you? (Dezas)

If youre looking for Brad, hes there. (Setsu)

? (Dezas)

When I point at the ceiling, Brad jump down from the hole.

Brad!! (Dezas)

Are you alright, Disaster-sama!? (Brad)

Dezas calls out to Brad when she saw him. Brad seems to be relieved that Dezas is safe.

Conversely, beside Dezas I see a frightened man in a white suit. Who the hell is he?

You bastard as I thought you really did return to this world..? (Black Robe)

As I thought? What, did he actually anticipated my return to this world?

I looked suspiciously at the pitch black robed man in front of me. Hes totally a creepy guy. For now I guess this dude will be my opponent?

Then oi Brad!! Im leaving those brown guys to you, okay!? You too Ides, go with Brad if you can still move! (Setsu)

Understood! (Brad)

Y-yes (Ides)

Although Brad moved at once, Ides seems to still looked puzzled. Even so, because he seems to believe in me, he ran with Brad while still confused.

Then, I guess its time to beat your ass? The crime for putting your hands on Dezas is huge you know? (Setsu)

Although Im not really the one who put my hands on her whatever, youre the one that is going to get killed today!! Allow me to crush you right here! (Black Robe)

The black robed man bluntly release his bloodlust and took a battle stance.

Huh looks like this will take a while.

[T.N: POV change to Ruri]

I, Ruri, am currently standing in the throne room of the demon kings castle. As for why a poor apprentice merchant like me is in this kind of place

Hey Ruri! Please keep yourself together! Im here with you, okay? (???)

The woman next to me saying these reliable words is Levia-san. She appears to be the sea god from the myths I have heard since I was young. This ridiculous person is one of the reasons I am stuck here.

Even if you say that (Ruri)

Get a hold of yourself! Look! Your work has come. (Levia)

Fue!? (Ruri)

As Levia-san said so, I lifted up my face that was facing the ground.

Here in front of me were devils running, clad in armor. They might have heard the explosion sounds that Setsu-san had caused earlier. Everyone had a serious face.

You two! Move out of the way! (Knight)

While holding a sword and spear, a man wearing an armor thats somewhat more extravagant than the others said that to us. I wonder if he is someone like a captain?

I havent seen your face around here! Are you the ones who caused this uproar? (Knight)

Hmm. I guess Im indirectly related? (Levia)

Wha. so youre the one causing the ruckus!! (Knight)

No need to get so worked up. Ruri, can you pass it to them? (Levia)

Ah, yes! (Ruri)

Thats right, this is my job.

From Setsu-sans magic bag that he gave me, I pull out a palm-sized object.

When I passed it to the knights one by one, they accept it while still remaining vigilant. I guess my harmless look is advantageous at a time like this.

th-this is? (Knight)

Croquetteis what it is called, but I guess you should know of this right? (Levia)

When Levia-san said that, the faces of the knights who remained vigilant changed.

This is, where did you get this!? (Knight)

The guy causing an uproar inside said to deliver these to you all. Eat this and wait for a bit is what he said I suppose (Levia)

As Levia-san answers the knight captain-ish persons questions, everyone exchanged glances and made lots of ruckus.

I-its Setsu-sans croquettes!! (Knight1)

Did he come back!? (Knight2)

As I thought its good!! (Knight3)

Youre eating it too fast!! (Knight4)

As theres already some of them that already finished eating the croquettes, it seems that were able to play our role without any difficulty.

Our role is to prevent the knighs who heard the uproar from entering. Setsu-san considered the fact that the enemys strength will cause casualties, so he entrusted us with this task, but I didnt think that this deep-fried potato called a croquette would truly stop everyone.

I already tamed them with the deliciousness of croquette

Is what he said while wearing a nasty smile, but it didnt seem like a lie.

Incidentally, the reason we hurried with the transfer magic formation is so we could make large quantities of croquette, or so it seems. It was very hard to buy the potatoes from the market. But even though there were only troubles for me and I wasnt the one who made them, I still felt happy when they said its delicious.

Or rather, is it fine for everyone to believe it is Setsu with just one croquette? Im concerned about this castles security.

What is Setsu-san doing in the throne room? Currently there is a ceremony taking place (Knight)

He came to get the demon lord back from that shitty man. (Levia)

As Levia-san answers the questions of the knights who finished their croquette, the area began to turn noisy once more.

From what I hear, everyone opposes the current marriageor more like it seems that they strongly oppose the one who will become her partner. Because of that, there were some people who suggested assisting Setsu-san, but Setsu-san himself told them not to come so we turned them down.

Just wait here patiently, theres still some croquettes left. Levia)

Oh, Ill gladly accept them. (Knight)

Once again I distribute the croquettes to everyone.

When I put one in my mouth, although I thought of something impolite like it would have taste better when its still hot, my hand doesnt stop moving to eat the delicious potato. It seems that in the world Setsu-san came from, they put this in their lunch box and carry it with them. Lets ask him to make this for me next time

[T.N: POV changed to MC]

I avoided the black thorns approaching in front of my eyes by turning my neck. Then I got closer and swung Kuromaru towards the black robe.

Kuh (Black Robe)

That attack I made by swinging the sword widely on purpose, ended up missing from a backstep.

What a sharp attack I almost spilled blood there. (Black Robe)

oh, eh, okay. (Setsu)

You cant kill me with just thisis the kind of vibes hes shooting at me, but is it really a sharp attack?

I shall go seriously as well! ! (Black Robe)

A pitch black fist appears from the mans shadow. Its quite big huh, it seems to be able to squash my body.

But I wasnt particularly in a hurry, so I stared at it while being disappointed that this degree is what he meant with being serious.

Haah! (Setsu)

Together with a yell, I stopped the fist from the front with the hand not holding Kuromaru. The momentum resounded with a thud, but there was not even a single damage whatsoever.

With one hand tch. (Black Robe)

Oopsie daisy! (Setsu)

I raised Kuromaru overhead and swung down to the black fist that I stopped. The cut arm vanished and the black robed man retreated from the wind pressure created by the sword swing.

What kind of ridiculous bullshit is this (Black Robe)

Yeah, I get that a lot (Setsu)

Wha!? (Black Robe)

I instantly shortened the distance from the retreating man, I drove a front kick into the guys stomach while his stance is still broken.

Gahah! (Black Robe)

Spitting out saliva and his breath, the man got blown away and rolled away as he hit the ground. As I thought this guy is not that strong. Did he really give a hard fight with that guy Ides? The title of Five Great Generals is going to cry you know?

If hes only this strong, then the other two probably didnt have to keep the soldiers away. It seems that it didnt become a scale large enough to get them involved.

Gah Hah ! (Black Robe)

While the guy is still kneeling, A huge lance that exceeds 3 meters grew from him.

That seems like it packs quite a punch, so it might be able to injure me.

Eat thiskuh! (Black Robe)

Just shoot it already. Setsu)

Haah!! (Black Robe)

Together with a yell, the fired lance flew straight towards me. It has enough power to easily open a hole in the demon kings castle wall. I cant let him add any more holes here, because I feel guilty for drilling up the ceiling.

Tei (Setsu)

I smacked the lance. With just that the lance is struck towards the floor and the tip broke.

I take my eyes off the lance that had disintegrated into particles, and showed a smile as a means of provocation to the black robe guy that cant conceal his jaw dropping even if his face cant be seen.

Whats wrong? Dont you have anything else above this level? (Setsu)

Guh whats with that out of the norm power to lightly handle the power of that is A-rank (Black Robe)

Dont you get full of yourself with just A-rank attacks, you pitch black dude. Let me show you my SSS-rank punch. (Setsu)

Kuh! (Black Robe)

I lightly kicked the ground and got closer to the black robed man and while I repelled the bullets the man hurled from his shadow with my sword, and appeared in front of him.

I grabbed his arm before he kicked the ground to take distance and I held it tightly so he wont escape.

Dont you run away, no need to hesitate and receive this punch. (Setsu)

Gah (Black Robe)

I let go of my sword and bashed the face of the black robe. He was blown away together with a dull sound and he fell down at the same place when I had him eat my front kick.

Youre really something else huh, how long are you going to conceal your true power? (Setsu)

I asked a question to the black robed man who was collapsed and letting out a groan. I am interested in the fact that the strength and aura he holds are in no way proportional to each other.

Although I dont have magic eyes, Im somehow able to guess the amount of enemys magic power from their aura. With this, I see he appeared to be holding SS-rank strength, but when I watch him fight, he is no more than an A or S rank.

Hah Hah As expected from the out of standard Hero so I cant become your opponent in this current state (Black Robe)

This current state? (Setsu)

Sorry, but I will have myself withdraw from this I must report about you to my master after all. (Black Robe)

I dont know who your master is, but do you think I will let you go away so easily? (Setsu)

I picked up the sword I let go of and thrusted at that guys throat.

Fuh You bastard cannot rob me of my life Know that that half-heartedness will become your undoing kukuku (Black Robe)

Saying that, the man disappears leaving behind only the black robe. The black magic particles flutters in the surrounding, and disappeared before long.

Shadow magics Shadow Clone? he really got me there. (Setsu)

So the weakness from before was because it was a clones body, no wonder there was no significant response from him. I brushed off the black particles while remembering the irritation. The next time I meet him, Ill give that master of his a serious beating.

Setsu (Brad)

Oh, so youre done there too? (Setsu)

Brad, Lily and Ides came to me while each of them dragging those brown robed fellow. They didnt seem to have any significant injury, so it looks like its a complete victory.

For now, strip them off of all their possessions and reveal (Setsu)

Setsu!! (???)

Uwaa!! (Setsu)

Just as I wanted to say to reveal their true characters, a weight rushed on my back softly. The demon king Disaster, who looked like a bride, embraced me as if to cover my body. Due to reincarnation my body became completely different, my height dropped down so the height difference between me and Dezas is completely reversed. Five years ago I was the taller one.

Guh it became unpleasant.

Youre not hurt anywhere are you? (Setsu)

None! Im still pure! (Dezas)

Yeah, Im glad, so glad Dont say that in public! Cant you see I cant respond to that here!?

Well, what to say. Anyway, glad to see you again, Dezas. (Setsu)

Yes!Yes! (Dezas)

She tightens her embrace. Looking at her trembling arms, I knew that she had felt quite uneasy. On the outside she might looks mature, but shes still a girl on the inside. She mustve felt the danger towards herself.

Still though white really didnt suit you. (Setsu)

I said that when I see her dress. As I thought red or black suits her more. I really felt uncomfortable seeing her wearing white, so if possible I want her to return to her usual cloth.

I thought you would say that this is more or less how a bride should look like I guess (Dezas)

She said so while putting a wry smile. Well, if I leave out the color, shell look unreasonably beautiful now though

Hah please wear a red and black wedding dress next time. (Setsu)

I think I would really praise her if the dress is that color.

Mu! By chance is that a proposal!? (Dezas)

She amazingly bit on my words and went and pulled my face towards her. It was inevitable that it was painful from having to look at a rather high angle. Stop, stop!

While I was enduring the pain, I opened my mouth.

We-well if you really wish for marriage (Setsu)

Basically I have no intention of refusing. Although theres the question of like or not, if I like her I want to answer her feelings. Besides, is there even a reason to refuse a marriage proposal from a beautiful woman that would be unthinkable of in Japan?nope, theres none.

Please understand, just like any boy, even I have a dream of having a harem.

well my mental age already exceeds 30 years though.

R-really!? Ah, no but (Dezas)

For an instant, Dezas showed a smile like a flower blooming, but it instantly changed into a thinking expression.

However, would it really be okay to accept the proposal now, or should I propose to both of you at once.ugh!! What should I do!? (Setsu)

By both, you mean Roa? (Dezas)

Roa Leonail( Ro-a Re-o-nee-ru), thats the name of the daughter of the Beast King, the king of the Beastman Continent. The Devil and the Beastman used to be hostile, but the king and the kings daughter are friends now. At first the atmosphere is pretty dangerous, but it seems that they got on friendly terms when they have a meeting along with me. They seems to be pretty close now.

Urgh I-Ive decided! I wont propose yet!! Ill propose to both you and Roa! (Setsu)

Y-yeah (Dezas)

Dezas parts with me and tightly grasp her hand. I dont know how well shell be able to take it.

Wait, are you guys all fine with this? Even though your leader is going to marry someone like me (Setsu)

If its something Disaster-sama decided (Brad)

Thats right isnt it~We cannot go against her, right~ (Lily)

Fumu, if Disaster-sama made the decision I will not object (Ides)

Brad spoke with a firm tone, but his face broke into a smile. In addition, Lily and Ides spoke completely monotone and did not even hide their broad smirk.

These guys, even though they didnt accept todays wedding ceremony to the point of acting violently

Well, I guess its better than you guys going against it

so, what should we do with that guy? (Setsu)

When I asked that, everyone faced a certain direction.

Hiih (???)

At that place there was a human man wearing a white suit. The Five Great Generals certainly didnt accept that man who is to marry the bride, so he is a pitiful bridegroom.

The frightened figure who is holding his legs and is hiding in the shadows of the throne, we couldnt endure seeing such a shameful figure.

So I was about to become such mans thing Now that I think it over, it is frightening. (Dezas)

It was cruel to say that, but even if she said that, it cant be helped since he looks miserable and dirty.

Pl-please save me just my life (Terran)

His teeth was chattering as he was going to beg for his life.

Desas and co seems to want to say to entrust me with his punishment, so I sent my gaze at him.

I sighed and walked towards the man. Kuromaru is in my hand.

Yo, mister pitiful-bridegroom-deserted-by-his-companion, how are you feeling? (Setsu)

P-please help me if-if its money you want I can pay you (Terran)

Shouldnt he be asking of such thing to Dezas, the lord of the Devil

I grabbed the carefully set hair of his and raised his face.

It cant be helped, Ill at least save your life. (Setsu)

! You, you really will!? (Terran)

Yeah, however (Setsu)

I thrust Kuromaru right beside him and said;

Ill have you spit out every information you know. (Setsu)

Theres a bit of my bloodlust mixed with that thrust, so this guy nodded many times even when hes covered in runny nose and tears.
