Chapter 92.2
Mob Protagonist ~ Mob in the Novel But There is a Problem
Chapter 92.2. Loki and The Mercenary
-???âs POV-
âHoney!â
âYeah, darling!â
[Hayate]
Invoking similar magic, Flora embraces Zephyrus as he jumps into her arms, invoking the power of Anemoiâs divine weapon.
[Wind Teleport]
Their body melts into the wind and begins to teleport to other marked hideouts.
âHaha, I donât know how you found me. Bye!â
His vision shifted, and he made the transition. Thatâs whatâs supposed to happen. But when the wind disappeared. The teleportation wasnât triggered, and the three were still in front of them.
âHey! Why!â
âThat reaction was already been predicted by Loki.â
With a bored expression, the beautiful woman pointed her gun at the surprised Zephyrus.
âLooks like I donât have to show you the power of great magic.â
The old man holds out his hand with an enormous amount of magic power.
[Gaia Blast]
A rock bullet, as sharp as a spear that must be a meter long, is fired from the magic circle painted on the gunâs muzzle. Even though he is upset, Zephyrus immediately activates his barrier magic.
[Storm Wall]
A protective wall made of storm wind, which instantly repels even physical attacks, tries to block the bullets.
âNa!â
âGyaah!â
But the rock bullet penetrated the stormâs protective wall. Although its power decreased, the one meter sized bullet blew away Zephyros and the others.
[Gaia Dragon II]
Blown away and slammed to the concrete floor, Zephyrusâs mouth tightens as he sees the darkness in front of him.
âI thought underestimating your enemy was the Japanese way, you merciless bastard!â
In front of Zephyrus and his friends was the head of a rocky dragon with a wide open mouth. It was made entirely of rock, but it held terrifying magical power and the fangs that sprouted from its teeth were sharper than any magic sword.
With a single swallow, Zephyrus gets swallowed by the dragon, and a dull, guttural sound echoed through the air.
âHmm, that didnât take long.â
Putting away the queen dagger, Miu checks the log of her defeat.
[Killed Zephyrus!]
Thinking that it was so easy, Miu collected Anemoi and the Replica that had been thrown away and put them in her item box. If she dismantles this Anemoi, she should be able to obtain Wings of Anemoi.
In a novel, I would have said, Iâll equip Anemoi, but Iâm a mob, so I donât care.
There is something else I care about.
âGrandpa, maybe you finished it in one blow for me?â
âHmmm, Youâre blood relatives, arenât you? I donât care, and I donât think the young lady cares either, but Frigg did.â
With a bored look, Grandpa Odin turns his attention to Frigg-oneesan. Oh, thatâs surprising. Frigg-oneesan took care of him.
âHeâs still your fatherâs brother, isnât he? I was thinking about your future.â
âThank youâ¦â¦â¦, Frigg-oneesan.â
Thatâs not very Frigg-onesaan-like caring. As Grandpa Odin said, I donât think she should be concerned. He was someone who put my family in danger. I wouldnât be surprised if, in a strange turn of events. My parents will die.
.
Hmmm. But, yes, a rut could have been created, maybe a micron or so, when you think about dad. Sometimes you do a good thing, Frigg-oneesan.
âI would have appreciated it more if I didnât see you opening the trunk case, Frigg-oneesan.â
âWhat? Weâd better make a quick getaway. Itâs not good. Thatâs why the trunk case. Oh, jewelry and ingots! Bingo, I knew he had something valuableâ
Hyah-hoo, Frigg-oneesan popped open the trunk case that propped up next to the couch and gave a little leap of faith. Sheâs overjoyed to find it filled with jewelry, platinum, and gold ingots. If it werenât for this, sheâd be the perfect female spy.
âDo you want to leave any sign that Zephyrus was here?â
Without any sign that Zephyrus was there, I would be able to blame Zephyrus for the bad things to come. So Grandpa asks, but⦠Iâm lost.
âHmmm⦠â¦â¦. Did this couple have a son anywhere?â
I am sure there was one silly son.
âNo, they didnât. There were just a couple of mercenaries here and suspicious goons.â
âThat boy was abandoned?â
I feel a little sorry for him, but maybe he was lucky because if he had been here, his life would have been doomed.
âHe didnât seem like a man who cared about his son.â
âRight. That means the boy gets abandoned somewhere. Yeah, letâs leave a trail of dead Zephyros and the others. We can blame Loki for what weâre going to do, but weâre not going to blame Zephyrus. I donât like the idea of a son suffering for something his parents didnât do. Well, I was the one who was going to self-destruct even if I left it alone.â
Thereâs no need to lay blame needlessly. Loki is there.
âMaybe heâll turn into a vengeful man, you know?â
âI killed the one who came to kill me. You can be vengeful all you want. Iâm not as nice as Shin. Well, then, clear out~. Just make sure he doesnât know who killed him.â
I look back at the teasing goddessâs testing eyes, stick out my tiny tongue, and reply begrudgingly. I donât feel that guilty.
Iâm not nice enough to save someone who came to kill me. As I said before, Iâm Loki, the arrogant god.
