At that moment, Myuu's head felt as if it had been struck.
Ah! I remember now! That's right! Mu raised her hands, pointed at Meredith and shouted, according to the adventure story her father told her:
"The most annoying person in the world!"
“Gufu!”
The genius magician, beaming with joy, was scolded, her face utterly devastated, falling to her knees. Meanwhile, Oscar and the others erupted in laughter. They either turned their heads away or shook their shoulders.
Meredith glared at her companions... but it was ineffective. A muscle in the corner of her eye twitched, and she forced a smile as she faced Myuu.
"That's strange. Have Xiao Mi and Xiao Miao met?"
"No! Myuu just heard about you!"
"I-I see. Then who told you that? If possible, I'd like to know who gave that false information to the little girl, Mi-chan."
"It's Daddy!"
"Your father?"
"Yeah! Dad said it! 'There's never been a more annoying person than Millardie Rasen, ever! If there was a World Annoyingness Championship, he'd win every single one!'"
“““Puha!!”””
"Hey hey! Ao, Xiao Nai, Mei Er, stop laughing."
“Also…”
"Anything else?! How much does your father hate Mi-chan—"
"Dad said—'I'll never forget the hatred of flushing it down the toilet!'"
"He doesn't just dislike me anymore, he even resents me!? What do you mean by flushing it down the toilet!?"
The laughter died down, and Oscar and the others looked at Meredith with icy eyes. Their expressions were as if to say... You flushed the child's father down the toilet... Meredith, I didn't expect you to be so extreme...
"No, no! This is a misunderstanding! Xiao Mi has never flushed anyone down the toilet! No, you can't flush people down the toilet!"
Who is this child's father?! Have you really seen me?! Meredith raged, but Myuu brushed her off and happily shared the information she'd gathered. She was genuinely happy to meet a character from the story. Myuu looked at Oscar with excited eyes.
"Brother, are you the 'Oscar who loves maids' brother!?"
"What!"
How did you know?! Oscar's glasses fell off in shock. Miu didn't answer, focused on guessing the character. Instead, her gaze shifted to Sister Mei'er.
"Mel Melkine-sister, 'Absolutely a pervert and careless person,' and 'Myuu must not become a seaman like that when she grows up!'"
"!? Looks like I need to have a good talk with Myuu's dad."
A mark of anger appeared on Mei'er's forehead. Mei'er's sister, who had a strong grudge against her father, was about to let her sadistic spirit show.
"That brother is..."
"Well, do I have a share?"
Natsu was flustered. He thought that since he'd been cooped up at home for ten years, Myuu's father probably wouldn't recognize him...
"Nez Grun-nii, 'Compared to the other three, he's perfectly normal,' and 'He must be born to be a hard worker!'"
"! Do you know the name Grun...?"
Natsu's eyes widened, his astonishment different in meaning from the others. Grun was the name of Natsu's birthplace. It was the name of the village he had destroyed, and it no longer existed. Natsu had never mentioned the name Grun in public before...
Miledi and others finally began to notice the abnormality of Mu. They stared at Mu, and Mu also realized that something was wrong.
She realized this was impossible. 'Those liberators' couldn't possibly be here. Yet, someone who shouldn't be here was right before her eyes.
Imposters? Were they simply using the Liberator's name? But their characteristics certainly matched what Dad had described... The world shouldn't know the specific characteristics of the Liberator...
Myuu, confused, took a few steps back. Then, Meredith took a serious look and took a step closer to Myuu. Just before she was about to speak,
"Why are you still alive?"
“Gufu!”
Meredith collapsed again, thinking the little girl meant, "Aren't you ashamed of being alive?" Unable to contain herself, she lay on the ground, mumbling, "I'm sorry, I'm still alive," almost crying.
"Are all sea people sadists..."
"Even such a simple child will become like this in the future..."
"Natsu-chan? What do you mean by that? And Oscar-chan, be careful or I'll break your glasses, okay?"
Seeing the reactions of the liberators, Myuu realized that she seemed to have hurt Sister Miredy and immediately panicked.
Just as she was about to clear up the misunderstanding, Oscar smiled brightly and said, "It's okay to leave her alone. I want you to tell us what you know." Niz and Mel also agreed, while Mireddy yelled, "Be gentle with Mired." It was after this that -
The deserted capital shook violently. Like a force thrust upward from the ground, it surged like waves. Space wailed, and the very air trembled.
Myuu screamed "Ahh!" and Mei'er, seeing her about to fall, tried to catch her. But before she could do so, Myuu's body was enveloped by a warm light and gently floated up.
"Waaaa!? —Ah, Mr. Whale?"
It was the whale of light that had originally been perched obediently on Myuu's head. It had grown to about two meters in size, allowing Myuu to sit on its back.
I'm looking for two creators. Hurry!
The Whale of Light's voice echoed again. Perhaps having exhausted all its strength, its voice was weak and trembling, just like the continuous and violent vibrations.
"! What's going on? Is this going to end?!"
Meredy screamed wildly.
Far away, looking towards the abandoned city, dark clouds swirled in the sky above, and a black miasma emanated from the tower. The black fog enveloping the abandoned city grew thicker by the second, finally taking on the appearance of "apocalypse."
Then Myuu saw several red flashes piercing through the dark clouds.
The moment he saw that scene, Myuu's expression was filled with joy.
"dad!"
It seems that Myuu and Hajime were sent to several kilometers in opposite directions of the abandoned city, north and south. It is obvious that Hajime and his companions are close to the abandoned city and are fighting with someone.
—Young child of the sea, there is no time...
"I-I understand! We'll go find Dad right away, so keep up the good work!"
"X-Xiao Miu, who are you talking to?"
For some reason, the Whale of Light seemed to be able to only communicate its thoughts to Myuu. That being said, there was no time to elaborate now; the anxiety and urgency emanating from the Whale of Light grew stronger with each passing moment.
"I'm talking to this whale of light! It's the one that brought you guys here, Oscar!"
"Is that it?"
Oscar couldn't help but look at the whale with a questioning look, but Meredith stopped Oscar with a hand and stepped forward. The regretful feeling he had felt earlier was gone.
"Xiao Miu, what should we do?"
Meredith only asked what was necessary, and Muu only answered what was necessary.
"Let's go to that city!"
In an instant, a gloomy and terrifying atmosphere enveloped them. As if to trample on Myuu's wishes, countless flesh wolves, strange frogs, and tar reapers swarmed out, their numbers even filling the road leading to the abandoned city.
Overwhelming murderous intent and malice turned into a violent attack in numbers.
In this situation, not only could we not move forward, even survival should be considered hopeless. However...
"very good!"
Meredi gave an arrogant smile and pounded her fist on her palm in front of her chest.
Adversity? Desperate situation? Outnumbered?
It could not be better!
"Come on, Oh! Nai-chan! Mei-nee! This is the little princess's request! Let's show her the power of the Age of Gods Magician!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the large group of flesh wolves rushing towards them were instantly crushed into stains on the ground by the super gravity field.
"Because the clue to get back seems to be right there."
Oscar shrugged helplessly, then summoned an astonishing number of small magic swords to fire.
"Since it's the child's wish, I can't ignore it."
A smile appeared on Natsu's lips, and he waved his hand, cutting the space horizontally in a straight line.
"Xiao Miao is already Mei'er's younger sister, so leave her to her."
Mei'er laughed happily and regenerated the torrent from before, engulfing all the enemies.
The attacking monsters were slaughtered in an instant.
And incredibly, they opened a road to the abandoned city.
Seeing such overwhelming power, Myuu opened her eyes wide in surprise, and Milady and others walked up to her.
Just like the knights guarding the little princess.
"Then let's go, Myuu."
The liberators turned around and said to Myuu.
Their presence was so strong that it shook Myuu's heart greatly──
"Because I have to talk to your father face to face! The most beautiful girl in the world is one thing, but who is the most annoying person in the world!"
Taking it back, there was clearly a personal grudge between them. Even Mei'er smiled sadistically and asked, "What should we do with him?"
"Please, everyone."
Miao thanked him, but secretly said in his heart: "They are indeed a group of regretful people...", and also "Dad, I'm sorry, Miao may have brought trouble to you."
"Pfft, it never ends. It's so annoying."
Hajime spoke angrily, unable to conceal his impatience. The electromagnetic acceleration cannon fired twelve thousand rounds per minute, annihilating the swarming monsters.
Yet the number of monsters didn't decrease. Could this be considered a monster festival? All manner of terrifying monsters continued to pour out of the ruined city like a flood.
Hajime looked back and saw his companions who had successfully reunited on the rooftop of a nearby ruin.
Kaori cast a barrier to protect Remia. Shia served as Kaori's vanguard, keeping the enemy at bay. Yue and Tio used Thunder Dragon and Dragon Roar to sweep away the waves of monsters.
The battle situation wasn't critical. Even if the monsters launched an attack with the brute force of numbers, at most Kaori would be frightened to tears by their disgusting appearance, but they posed no threat to Hajime and the others. However...
“──!”
The Grim Reaper's scythe slashed across Hajime's flank, causing blood to spurt out violently.
"……beginning!"
"Hashi-kun!"
Yue's expression changed drastically, and he immediately released his Thunder Dragon, burning the Death God to charcoal. Kaori fired the healing light like a bullet, immediately healing Hajime.
In fact, since approaching this abandoned city and starting to fight monsters, Hajime has been injured a lot, which should have been impossible. The reason for Hajime's injuries is...
“Damn it, Myuu, where are you…”
That's right, the reason is the yet-to-be-found Myuu. Currently, Hajime is simultaneously controlling twelve Orniths. Even with his ability to expand his perception, 『Blink』, this number is already the limit for Hajime at this point.
Right now, most of Hajime's consciousness was focused on searching for Myuu, which would definitely affect the battle.
“—I’m so annoyed, ‘Bad Tribulation’!”
Yue was nearly mad with rage. She cast a wide-range supergravity field spell, creating a 500-meter square depression in a corner of the abandoned city. Of course, the monsters there also became stains on the ground.
“…Hajime! Enter Kaori’s barrier! Focus on the search!”
"Since there's no end in sight for this battle, securing Myuu is paramount! Leave this to Yue and me!"
“…Got it. I’ll leave the defense to you guys!”
Hajime glared at the abandoned city in anger.
I wonder how satisfying it would be if we could completely destroy that abandoned city that emitted the monster.
However, it is precisely because of this that it cannot be destroyed.
This strange city center was clearly this abandoned city. If they destroyed it, and also destroyed their means of return, that would be disastrous. While it was possible to return by destroying it simultaneously, that would likely leave Myuu stranded here, and Hajime absolutely couldn't let that happen.
Yue and Tio followed Hajime's instructions and stopped actively attacking, focusing on offensive defense instead. Hajime watched their actions and landed where Kaori and Remia were.
"Kaori, I'm going to use Limit Break. When it runs out, please cast Regeneration Magic on me immediately."
