I was accidentally injured by God and I just want to be an ordinary person

Without food, he could only ask for help from the sea beasts around him that he could communicate with. When he felt tired, he lay down in the birdcage and fell asleep. He could do nothing. Even if he cried because he felt useless, there was no way to recover what he had lost.

I can't remember exactly when it started, but one day my memory started to blur, and the monotonous life day after day began to lose its color. Only by communicating with sea beasts could I maintain the most basic rationality.

How long had this been going on? I only remembered that whenever I woke up, my sea beast friends had already had offspring or had simply vanished—perhaps killed in a fight. It was like… like? Like what? I had a general feeling, but I couldn't recall the specifics.

This went on for a long time. When I was almost losing my ability to speak and self-awareness, other sounds were heard in the birdcage for the first time. They were very noisy discussions that made it impossible for me to sleep. Not only that, they even shook me directly. Even if sea beasts would swim in before, they would not be so naughty. Thinking of this, I opened my eyes.

Purple eyes? A demon? Was he here to take his life as a sea dweller? The sea beasts had said that no other sea dwellers existed.

The strange thing is that he didn't feel any fear towards this girl.

"I am Elelaya Nott Mistotin of the Demon Tribe—"

After that, I met many girls of different races. They had no sense of racial discrimination at all, and they also accepted me, a person from the sea who had provoked a war thousands of years ago. It seemed that everyone's face was filled with happiness, just like the seabed in the past.

Until a short while ago.

"Tina will stay at the hotel. The others and I will go to the sluice wall to deal with the sea monsters."

"Uh-huh……"

A feeling of guilt rose from the bottom of his heart. The active period of sea beasts was the final curse of the underwater people. It brought so much trouble to Princess Ella, but he, as a member of the same clan as the instigator, stayed in a safe area. This feeling of impatience kept sprouting in his heart, making him so uncomfortable that he wanted to die to atone for his sin.

Finally, Tina stood up.

Lucia, who stayed in the room, searching for vegetable juice with magic, looked up.

"Where are you going, Tina?"

"I'm going to find Her Majesty Ella. My abilities will definitely be helpful!"

"but--"

"Lady Tina, please come with me!"

An unusually thin man broke open the door and rushed into the room, completely ignoring Lucia and walked straight towards her.

"Lady Tina, I finally found you! Staying with the Dragon Clan will only harm you. Come with me!"

But she didn't know this man, and the most important task now was to wait for Her Highness Ella to come back, so she spoke hesitantly.

"But... I don't know you..."

"I'm Valais, a merchant from the island of Brorickz. I'm your disciple, and I'll definitely help you restore the underwater civilization to the light of day!"

The eyes of the Nanning man named Valai turned red, and the madness made him feel disgusted from the bottom of his heart.

"Vale, that's enough! Tina will be sacrificed to quell this sea monster uprising."

A man with a majestic voice appeared in the room, and two unfamiliar people suddenly appeared. I couldn't help but take a few steps back and lean against the wardrobe on the wall.

"Wedge? What did you say? Sacrifice? The agreement clearly states that you can't harm Tina-sama!"

"The moment you wanted to take her away alone, the agreement was already invalid."

"You, you set a trap on purpose—"

"—Ice Wolf Attack."

“Ugh!”

Before the merchant Vale could finish his words, the manager of the branch island Brorickz, His Highness Shen Gan's uncle, Wedge Fast Igrit, used magic to shut Vale's mouth.

"Wei, Weizhi? Are you the Dragon King's brother? This is a friend of the Demon Queen, Lady Elelaya. You should be well aware of the consequences if you take her away, right?"

Miss Lucia, holding a sacred staff, stood in front of him. Her calm demeanor didn't give the impression that she was a healer.

But Wezhi did not stop his actions because of the intimidation. Instead, he smiled a cold smile that made him feel uncomfortable all over, as if he had already thought of the answer in advance.

"If we use her as a magic circle sacrifice, the active period of the sea beasts will be completely quelled. In this way, as long as I am level 32, as a descendant of the Dragon King, I will pay the price with my death. Even the Demon King will not be able to hold me responsible. Bishop Lucia, if you continue to interfere, don't blame me for attacking."

For the first time, Lucia showed an expression of reluctance on her face.

"Madman, even if you manage to avoid this sea monster's active phase, the next one will come. You're only delaying your demise."

"Hmph, Brother will naturally handle the rest of the situation. I just know that if we don't stop this, Dragon Island won't even be able to see the riot next year. Get out of here!"

It is not a wise choice to conflict with Wedge here. The most important thing to do now is to let Miss Lucia go away and let her go find Princess Ella. If it is the lord who can control the deep sea lord without magic, he will definitely be able to find a way to defeat this man.

"Lucia-sama, please go ahead and find Ella-sama."

He whispered to Lucia, but such a small action must have been discovered and not stopped, which means that the other party is quite confident and may have set a trap in advance.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but frown slightly. When he was about to take back his previous words, Wezhi pushed Lucia away.

"Wind Binding Technique."

Completely without any ability to resist, he was tied up by Wezhi with magic and flew directly to the north of the island from the hotel window with the help of flying magic.

Is there any way to break free? But with only level 5 abilities, I can't escape the Wind Binding Technique at all.

While thinking of a way to escape, a lively voice rang in my ears.

“Stop right there!”

clang--

A sound like someone was using a huge hammer to smash the bronze bell of a New Year temple, and even the air was shaking. In the field of vision, Miss Angelini was falling from the sky with a huge sickle towards the panic-stricken streets. The previous blow must have come from Miss Angelini who happened to arrive.

"Tsk, another magic shield?"

"You're the Demon Queen's friend? Hmph, I don't have time to talk to you anymore. - 『Flight』."

The "flying" used by dragon language magic is much faster than the normal "flying". The wind blowing past my ears makes a whistling sound, but now Miss Angelica is the place that makes me pay more attention. I open the only organ in my body that can move and shout at her.

"Ms. Angelica, go find Her Highness Ella!"

"I won't stop here! 'Giant Scythe Slash'!"

Miss Angelini, whose eyes had turned red and went berserk, jumped up from the ground again. The paved stone slabs collapsed due to her huge force, and countless dust floated in the streets.

An expression of impatience appeared on Wezhi's square face. The speed of "flying" used through dragon language magic was very fast, but it was still far behind the speed of Miss Angelini jumping from the ground. With the physical strength of Wezhi's magic caster, if he was hit by Miss Angelini's full force, he would definitely be seriously injured to the point of being unable to move.

"——'Falling Rock'."

"Ms. Angelica, be careful!"

"What!?"

With a loud bang, rocks appeared out of nowhere and hit Miss Angelini in mid-air. Then, without being stopped, Wezhi flew directly to the north of the island.

……

After finishing the battle with Wezhi, regardless of the severe pain from falling from the height of the roof, Angelini took out a cylindrical object from her pocket, pointed it at the sky, and injected magic into it. Brilliant fireworks resounded throughout Dragon Island. Then she climbed up from the ground and wiped the bright red liquid flowing from the corner of her mouth.

"I won't let you take Tina away."

Maintaining her frenzied state, Angelique moved rapidly towards the north at the fastest speed she could achieve, where, besides Wezhi, she had someone she could absolutely trust.

Chapter 88: What the Sacrificial Girl Prayed For

Led by Wizhi's "flying" magic, the bound Tina came to the northern edge of Dragon Island Helkar. There were no city walls here, only camps guarded by barriers and soldiers. Since the residential area was far away from the coast, it was generally difficult to be attacked by sea beasts. The soldiers only needed to use magic circles to block stray bullets.

"You go help out at the sluice wall, I'll take care of this."

"But... Lord Wedgie, it's just you and this girl..."

"I've already set up a magic circle on the coast, so there's no problem."

"You really don't need our help? At least one team—"

"Need not."

Wizhi waved his hands impatiently and drove the soldiers closer to the coast. Although he had doubts, Wizhi was a level 32 magic caster. With the magic circle set up in advance, he could play a big role alone. He obeyed the order as usual. The soldiers packed their equipment and started to rush to the south.

“Mmmmm—”

Because Wezhi had sealed Tina's mouth with magic before coming, Tina could only make a very small cry. Like treating a livestock, Wezhi pushed Tina to the beach. Then a brilliant blue barrier with a diameter of about 30 meters floated from the ground, and a semicircular light shield responsible for defense also covered it.

Like Tina, Wezhi, who was wearing a gray magic robe, stood in the barrier and looked at Tina expressionlessly.

“‘Remove’.”

After being released from her restraints, Tina immediately shouted at Wezhi.

"what are you up to?"

"Hmph, what are you doing? You, the Undersea People, should bear the consequences of your sins. This barrier was set up specifically to sacrifice you, the last princess of the Undersea People. With you as a sacrifice, the sea beasts cursed by the Undersea People will return to the sea, and the crisis on Dragon Island will be resolved."

Since Wezhi only lifted the language restriction, she was still restricted by the "Wind Binding Technique" and could only lie on her side on the ground. The part of her body that touched the sand felt like a burning pain, but the most important thing now was to buy time - even if what Wezhi said was reasonable, that was definitely not the result that Her Highness Ella, who saved her, expected.

"but--"

His slow brain couldn't think of anything to refute what Wezhi said, but fortunately Wezhi saw that he wanted to refute and interrupted him directly with strong anger in his voice.

"—But? Do you know how many people died in the sea monster uprising on Dragon Island? Don't you have any sense of shame?"

"Then you dragons, don't you have any shame in destroying the underwater civilization?"

The response she came up with on the spur of the moment made Tina feel that she would definitely leave Wedgie speechless, but things always develop differently from what she imagined. Wedgie sneered and raised his plain long staff.

"Destruction? Think about who started this war. Even if you stall for time, no one can save you. Your biggest support, Camisia, has already gone to Brorickz. With this dragon language barrier that can counter all attacks, even if all your companions attack together, it will be useless—let's begin."

A dazzling light emanated from the long staff, as if igniting the entire magic circle. The strong blue light outlined countless runes on the ground. The earth began to tremble, and a circular platform protruding two meters from the ground appeared on the coast, covered by a translucent blue light shield like a film.

"The sacrifice begins."

After Weizhi finished speaking in a cold tone, a gear-shaped magic circle began to appear under his feet. Every time the magic circle produced a light and dark fluctuation, a huge amount of magic power that seemed to be about to burst his body would flow into his body.

“Gu, guu ....”

His delicate facial features were twisted together, and the intense pain that crawled up his body from the magic circle on the ground made him let out a sound of pain.

But this did not impress the frowning Wezhi at all.

"Success? Increase the output."

As Wezhi outputted magic from his staff, dark blue chains began to extend from the ground one after another. The chains with an ominous aura fixed him as he rolled around in pain.

A feeling of discomfort, accompanied by thick negative emotions, surged into the body. The previous pain seemed like child's play, and the self-awareness was crumbling in this huge wave of despair and anger.

If this continues, he will definitely become a sacrifice and die. This is not the result that Princess Ella expects. She also has the responsibility to revive the underwater civilization - is there any way to stop him?

This question arose in my mind, and then the answer came immediately.

Mind Control

He used his absolute control over the lower-level sea beasts to make all the sea beasts in the area attack the magic circle.

Countless small streams of water and spindle-shaped fish leaped out of the sea a few meters away, crashing into the blue light shield with an unstoppable momentum.

Bang, bang.

But unfortunately, all the attacks were rebounded by the magic shield and returned to the sea.

"It's useless. All attacks below my level will be reflected."

It was like the words of a death sentence that made his spirit, which was in turmoil, wither. With each additional ominous dark blue chain, it was like a piece of memory was forcibly dug out. The splitting headache made him cry uncontrollably.

“Aa ...

No, this is absolutely intolerable.

Just like when I lost my memory before, my vision began to blur and my thoughts were covered by turbid currents.

"At Miss Angelini's request, release the Demon King's female friend!"

"Magic Cannon Number One is ready!"

"Number two is ready!"

"Number three is ready!"

A familiar voice...his already hazy vision wavered for a moment.

This is... the merchant Marudo who was saved by Her Highness Ella. In the monochrome vision, one can only barely see him standing on the large merchant ship lent by Her Highness Ella, commanding his men to aim the magic cannon at Wezhi.

"Hmph, relying on just you guys—"

"put!"

Boom boom boom!

Intense flames, accompanied by loud noises and smoke, exploded on the barrier, but the magic circle itself only fluctuated a few times, and all the attacks were bounced back like before.
