Re:Zero - Jobless Reincarnation: Succubus Sword God? I don't recognize it!

Chapter 422: Rudius, have you ever heard of the Apostle of God?

"Ah~ Let's put today's research aside for now."

"what?"

"Well 'that person' wants to see you."

Rudy was stunned.

"That person? You mean"

Nanahoshi nodded, "Dragon God, Orsted wants to see you."

After saying this, Rudy couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

After meeting Nanahoshi for the first time a year ago, when she spoke in Japanese, Rudy's past memories instantly popped into his mind and he recognized her immediately.

Of course, they didn't choose to recognize each other immediately. It was only after Rudy hesitated for a month and met each other eighteen times in the library that he finally mustered up the courage to communicate with Qixing.

After the two confirmed in Japanese that they were both time travelers, their connection naturally became closer.

Nanahoshi has been looking for Rudy, trying to convince him to work with him to find a way to return to Japan.

But Rudy was not interested.

Emotionally and intellectually, he had absolutely no desire to return to Japan.

This reincarnation in another world is not a "disaster" for him, but a rebirth.

He met a teacher who could take him out of the house, made friends with whom he wanted to confide, and felt the friendship that he had not been able to fully immerse himself in all these years. He also learned magic that he was very interested in, and was eager to continue to see what the world was like.

He thought he had found his 'team of adventurers'.

How could I possibly return to Japan now, stay at home again, and be a NEET again?
He was unwilling to even share his name with Qixing.

Most importantly, Alan is still missing.

Although he knew that the other party must have just caused a false alarm like the fall in the snow valley, there was no doubt that he would suddenly jump out at some point, speaking a lot of nice words and talking about the extremely dangerous transfer situation for him in a nonchalant manner.

Let yourself return to the daily life in the other world that you now look forward to and like a little.

So he confessed his thoughts to Nanahoshi that he needed to save a companion and did not want to return to Japan.

Because before that, Qixing also clearly asked him about his companions in the car accident.

Rudy felt that Qixing should be able to understand him.

However, Qixing had a big fight with him.

He hasn't been in the library for a few days.

Just as Rudy was hesitating whether to apologize to the other party.

On the third day, Qixing came back in a dejected state and apologized to him, explaining that she was too anxious and could not understand Rudy at the time and got angry with him.

Instead, Rudy felt a little embarrassed.

After that, the two began their research.

While learning the language, Qixing also learned various magical knowledge, and was particularly interested in magic circles.

Rudy, on the other hand, focuses on the research of magic stone cars.

Soon, they encountered a very serious problem.

With both of them spending money, Rudy's first round of funding, which he had raised on his own, was completely exhausted.

Rudy also wanted to ask Ariel for help, or use his identity as Notos to get some money, but to no avail. Paul and Ariel were caught in the trouble of setting up a search and rescue team and were criticized by the nobles, and they were in urgent need of money.

He had no choice but to shamelessly look for Countess Lilleson again, trying to use the same trick again to get some money.

But this time the other party said that she couldn't have any external devices, and she suddenly wanted to have a child? ?

Rudy was stunned after hearing this.

Child?

I'm still a child!

Reject decisively.

Naturally, the meeting ended in a bad mood.

Just when they were at a loss, Qixing, who was supposed to be helpless, came up with some ideas to make money. He wanted to set up a chamber of commerce and use his active brain to carry out a dimensionality reduction attack on the local natives at the commercial level, so as to obtain a steady stream of money to support the two people's research.

Rudy was considered the eldest son of the Notos family at the time, so he naturally knew a lot of the unspoken rules of the nobles' behavior. It was easy to say that establishing a chamber of commerce would, but it would undoubtedly affect the interests of the upper-class nobles in the royal capital, and thus fail.

Qixing replied confidently, "It's okay. He said he would provide some help! I didn't expect that guy to look fierce, but he is surprisingly famous and powerful. I'm sure no one would dare to offend him."

While saying this, he waved the Asura history book in his hand.

That page just happened to contain an introduction to the seven major powers.

At the time, Rudy just felt confused, but what happened next was completely beyond his expectations.

It was going too smoothly.

Qixing had suffered setbacks when he went out to negotiate, but he would soon bring good news.

Even the king gave her some face.

It was not until two months later, on the day when the Chamber of Commerce was officially established, that Rudy finally understood why Nanahoshi could appear in the royal capital and why she possessed the ability of the Face Fruit similar to that of Red-Haired Shanks.

He saw the figure standing behind the other person in the library.

Tall, white hair, a scary face
With golden pupils.

One of the seven great powers, existing only in legend.

Dragon God, Orsted.

-

buzzing~~
The magic car was speeding on the road, but Rudy couldn't hide the dazed look on his face. He couldn't help but look at the black-haired JK beside him who had somehow fallen in love with fast cars to relieve stress, and swallowed.

"Tell me, why did Lord Dragon God suddenly summon me? I remember that I only met him once, and we never spoke to each other. However, he glared at me at that time, and his expression looked scary. Could it be that he had some complaints against me?"

Rudy was a little afraid of the financial sponsor who owned 30% of the Chamber of Commerce's shares.

Qixing's vehicle was a convertible. At this moment, as the magic car was moving at high speed, the wind blew her black hair into a mess.

"Glaring? Ah~ I thought so at first, but then I realized that he just looked fierce, but in fact, he was surprisingly easy to communicate with? And based on the few exchanges I had with him, he has always been very curious about you."

Rudy wiped the sweat from his forehead, feeling helpless as if he was late for an interview.

"Curious?"

"Yes, after all, you were also summoned by the Great Transfer Summoning Technique. He said that he asked someone to investigate the survivors who were rescued and returned to Fitoya Territory, and basically determined that the summoning technique had actually existed in Fitoya Territory for some time, but due to the limitation of magic power, this summoning technique had never been completed.

The corpse that came with me at that time should be you, but you died before the summoning technique was completed, and your soul broke free from the prototype of the summoning technique before it was completed, and "possessed" your current body. Therefore, the summoning technique can be traced back to before the 407th year of the Ankylosaur calendar when you were born."

As soon as he finished speaking, Rudy stood up with a bang.

"what?!"

The noise scared Qixing so much that she almost lost her grip on the steering wheel, "What? Hold on tight! This is dangerous!" Rudy was even more frightened than her. He thought he had hidden his identity well, but he never expected that he was completely naked in the other party's eyes.

My corpse was summoned together with her? Does this mean that she knows exactly what I look like? Then what's the point of hiding my identity from her for the past year!
When he thought of his previous life, who was sloppy because he didn't exercise all day, he even imagined that during the past year they had been together, the other person had always looked at him with tinted glasses in his heart, although he didn't show it on his face.

Instead of sitting down, he immediately wanted to jump out of the car and escape.

Nanaho grabbed him.

"What are you doing? Is it because I revealed your identity?"

Rudy gritted his teeth, anxious. "Have you been laughing at me in your heart all this time?"

Qixing frowned, casually took advantage of the empty space, let the car slide for a distance, and stopped under the city wall at the junction of the Free Zone and the Noble Zone.

In Japan's social culture, maintaining a certain distance is politeness, and interactions between people are separated by a layer of cold politeness.

No one wants the other person to suddenly enter their safe distance.

This is due to Japanese culture, so as a high school student, who is at the age when people like to form cliques the most, Nanahoshi knows very well why Rudy has such a reaction, and her answer is very to the point.

"I know you don't want to reveal your identity, appearance, or stuff like that. After all, that's your privacy. But the day you were transferred here was at night, and your body was already in a mess. I couldn't see what you looked like at all."

Rudy hesitated for a moment, then suddenly smiled with relief.

Yes, I almost forgot about this. I had been crushed into a pulp by a truck before I crossed over, so Qixing couldn't see what I looked like at all. I was just a pile of pulp. Not to mention Qixing, even my brothers and sisters who drove me out of the house couldn't recognize me.

That’s great, at least he died quickly and cleanly.

He was very satisfied with his death, nodded, and sat down again.

Qixing breathed a sigh of relief and started the car again. The magic car rushed in front of the soldiers who were checking. How could the soldiers not know the president and vice president of the Sevenstar Chamber of Commerce, who had become famous in the capital in the past year? Naturally, they let them pass.

The magic car drove into the noble area.

As if feeling that the atmosphere just now was a bit awkward, Qixing continued to speak while driving.

"But, you want to find that friend, have you heard from him recently?"

These words quickly pulled Rudy out of his feeling of relief. He was stunned and his expression became restrained.

He showed a hint of worry.

"The good news is that we haven't seen his name in any of the victims' information, but the bad news is that there is no news about him at all. We suspect that he was transferred to a faraway place, such as the Bekafast Continent, the Milis Continent, or even the Demon Continent."

".I see, that doesn't sound good."

"It doesn't matter, he's very strong."

"Oh? Really? That's great, is it the same level as Orsted?"

Rudy's eyes twitched and he stopped talking.

The extroverted and arrogant JK, who is still a high school student and can quarrel with her boyfriend in the street, which is considered an anomaly in Japan, immediately realized that she had said something wrong again, but it was difficult to take it back.

So the two of them fell silent.

Rudy just looked at the scenery passing by quickly on the street and thought about Alan.

It has been a year. Although I have always believed that Alan is still alive, he has never contacted Ars.
Not a single letter came.

I'm really worried about his condition.
Moreover, even though he had improved the magic car, the current search progress had only reached the point where Asura had been searched thoroughly. Gilenu, one of the three northern magic kingdoms, had also established a base for the search team, but there had been no news so far.

Next is the Kingdom of the Dragon King and the Conflict Zone. But according to Ariel, the situation in the south is not optimistic.
The nobles of the Dragon King Kingdom seemed to have some ulterior motives and did not cooperate with the search team at all. Paul had no choice but to disperse his men to the Bekalit Continent. The search team was divided into many small teams and headed to the vicinity of the Dragon King Kingdom.
However, it is said that the South has intensified its search for "espionage activities", resulting in restrictions on behavior.
hateful
It would be nice if we could build an airplane.
This will make it faster.
His thoughts were in a mess, and the scene in front of him kept moving backwards. Rudy only focused briefly when he saw the familiar Keerel Mansion and some familiar shops.
At this moment, the vehicle suddenly slowed down, switched to reverse gear, and retreated a full kilometer away.

Just as Rudy was looking confused, he stopped at the gate of a familiar-looking mansion.

He blinked and turned to look at Nanahoshi.

The latter took a map, stroked his chin, looked at it for a while, and nodded.

"This is it."

"What?"

"That's right here. Orsted told us to go there."

Rudy opened his mouth in surprise, then looked at the gate of the noble mansion next to the magic car.

It was the residence of Countess Lilson that he had just left that morning.

"here?"

"Yes, it's here, I'm sure." Qixing said as he opened the car door and jumped out. Rudy was stunned for a long time and felt it was so absurd.

But it seems very reasonable.

Countess Lilson proposed to invest when the Chamber of Commerce was getting on track, but now it seems too easy.

So, you have also had sex with our Lord Dragon God?
Isn't this too...too...ridiculous?

He subconsciously resisted entering the mansion, but he saw Qixing looking around at the guard who had respectfully opened the door for Rudy, the Count's lover, and walked into the front yard.

Rudy hurriedly chased after him.

"I say, why don't we go somewhere else?"

"Why."

"That's right. It's just not very convenient."

"? What's inconvenient about it? Look at those guards, they've obviously received instructions, which proves that Orsted was talking about this place."

"Ah, is this so?"

As they were talking, the two had already walked into the hall. Seeing that the situation had come to this point, Rudy had no choice but to take the initiative and step in front of Qixing. He planned to wink at Countess Lilson when he saw her later and ask her to pretend that they didn't know each other.

"Why are you walking so fast all of a sudden? Wait for me."

-

It turned out that Rudy's idea was just unnecessary.

When the two men walked up the long stairs and arrived at the door of the bedroom on the second floor where the Count had sex almost regularly, they were so shocked that they were speechless when they saw Orsted sitting in a chair in front of Count Lilson's dressing table.

There was obvious fear on his face.

In sight.

Orsted still had that expressionless Sima face.

But at his feet was a pool of blood.

The naked woman had a big hole on her chest and was lying on the ground, lifeless.

The red-gold eyes swept over Rudy, and he felt his blood run cold.

Then I heard the other party speak straight to the point.

"Rudius Notus Greyrat should have been a dead baby.
I ask you, have you ever heard of a human god? "
