Chapter 36: (2)

The plump man, the slave trader, raised one of his hands. Right after, the group of armed men who had been waiting behind him slowly came forward. However, as they were about to lay their hands upon the closest girl, a shadow suddenly obstructed them.

Dont touch my sister!

Kanabun.nove(l)bi(n.)com

The beastman boy, Kanabun, stood up to protect his sister. The slave trader spoke to Kanabun with a disgusting smile on his face.

Well, well, it appears that we have quite a naughty child here. This is a contract exchanged between us slave traders and this village. Were the one guaranteeing the safety of this village. In exchange, well have your sister and the other girls to work for us. This is an official business, you know? I dont know what youre misunderstanding about Oh, lets see. In that case, why dont you just come with us as well? If you want to work together with your sister, we will welcome you with open arms.

The slave trader exchanged looks with the man who was reaching out his hand. The man began to move again and grabbed Kanabuns arm.

Wha, what are you doing?! Let go of me!

Kanabun!

To take back Kanabun, who was about to be taken away, Kanabuns elder sister held him in her arms.

Take them both away.

As the slave trader coldly said that, the man put more strength on his arm in an attempt to forcefully take them both away. At that moment

Gyaaah!!

The arm of the man, who was intending to take those two away, suddenly disappeared from around the elbow. Uproars began to echo from every corner of the area soon after.

I see, so thats the case, huh.

Tanaka raised his voice. There, perhaps Tanakas strength and kindness had finally dawned on them. The beastmen began to back away.

Hold your horse there, you bastard! Why are you the first one to back away after arrogantly spouting those words?!

The leaders shout was pointed toward Tanaka, who was moving back faster than anyone else and was ready to flee the scene anytime.

Phew, it seems that some of you understand a little bit about tactics, huh.

Tanaka begrudgingly came back. A man of ingenuous schemes, that was Tanaka. Being able to spontaneously come up with such an idea was something that could only be said as expected of Tanaka, however, for being able to stop him even as he had already made his move, the leader ought to possess considerable wisdom himself. Given his ingenuity, it was hard to believe he was actually someone working under a slave trader. Then, Tanaka suddenly realized. That this was another scheme prepared by the world. He wouldnt be able to overcome it with a half-baked method. Moreover, he had the beastmen on his back. He judged that it wasnt a good idea to engage in a prolonged battle of wits while shouldering such a heavy burden Tanaka showed no slightest movement. While the group of armed men moved to surround such a Tanaka.

Whats wrong? You seem to have gotten quiet there. Are you getting cold feet now? Huh?

With a relaxed expression, the captain put pressure on Tanaka, trying to break his heart. However

Kukukuku, you fell for it. Did you think Id continue to entertain you in battle of wits? How Foolish, did you honestly think Id fight you on the table youve arranged?

What?

The captain couldnt understand what Tanaka was talking about. And then, Tanaka began to make his move. He invoked Levitation and floated into the air, before making a declaration from above.

You have splendidly surrounded me as I expected, huh. You are hereby standing in the presence of me, the ruler of all demons. Have you prepared yourselves?

Everyone froze due to the unexpected turn of events. In the midst of this all, Tanakas death sentence rang out.

The suffering we experienced in hell, where the concept of warmth was nonexistent, upon being casted down from heavens. Feel free to enjoy it to the fullest. A Drop of Lamentations River Cocytus Tears.

This was Tanakas secret technique to open up a gate and unleash the power of Hell upon the world by borrowing the assistance of his comrades sealed in the lowest stratum of Hell, the Freezing Hell. Of course, it was just the setting he came up with.

A gigantic lump of ice appeared out of the blue. It then engulfed the armed group along with the slave trader. Based on its gigantic size, no one wouldve ever believed that it was a live-support magic.
