Nidoume no Jinsei wo Isekai de Chapter 51

Standing stock still as he is teased by the wind, he fixedly stares at the forest.

The screams, audible once in a while, are likely from the adventurers, who are still left behind in the forest, but although it’s evidence that something is happening in there one way or the other, Renya tries to not think of their fates.

The wind, which has been blowing from the forest’s direction and is blended with the fragrance of the forest’s trees, had the stench of something rotten and of iron rust mixed in.

Since it’s mixed in with the fragrance of forest trees, which is said to have the effect of soothing the mind, he ends up experiencing the disgusting stench as strong and prominent.

Once the non-attribute magic spell , which he activated and was amplifying with all his strength, blows from behind Renya in order to oppose the wind streaming from within the forest, the stench as well as the wind are washed away in one lump and get pushed back into the forest.

Actually, his intention is another one.

Usually it’s something she would notice, however was it because she was tormented by feelings of guilt for leaving Renya behind by himself? Shion didn’t show any behaviour that she had realized that at all.

Didn’t she mention it after noticing it? Or was it something that didn’t matter to Rona? Is it both or neither?

At any rate, it’s not like I can cover the extent of a wide area by myself.

Since that’s the case, what shall I do so that the strange monsters, which are currently in this forest, won’t leave from here and will it be fine with me making sure that they don’t get close to the vicinity of the city?

He couldn’t say it with certainty, but even so there’s a method to guide the monsters, who might decide to leave the forest, towards his own location.

The monsters, they encountered in the forest, borrowed the belly of a person, pursued escaping humans and actively assaulted them.

I’m going to deliberately transmit into the forest that those humans are here.
This can also be regarded as a kind of provocation.

“Really… I’m an idiot too after all.” (Renya)

He mutters in self-mockery.

As the luggage, they brought with them, would only be a nuisance, they have left everything but their weapons behind.

He hasn’t looked at the contents though.

Accordingly, as they are moving in that condition, they will probably arrive at the city in a bit more than hour, if they are fast, and in a bit less than two hours, if they are slow, is Renya’s expectation.

Now that I think about, just how many hours will that take? Renya felt like getting depressed.

If they are properly told that they must hurry, they will likely use horses or coaches for the move and would arrive here in around one hour after departing from the city.

That doesn’t mean that everything is always progressing in a smooth manner.

It’s not difficult to anticipate that it will likely create problems such as being unable to gather people or being unable to obtain materials, since it’s still night and dawn isn’t breaking yet.
In the first place, as a fairly high number of adventurers is suffering monster injuries in this forest, there’s also the concern whether there are still enough people remaining in the city to form a subjugation unit.

“Although it’s vague… I have a feeling that the formation of a subjugation unit is too early.” (Renya)

He looks up to the sky murmuring this in a whisper.

If it’s a normal request it will be ‘Thin out the goblins because they have increased too much in number’ or ‘A large number of women were abducted by orcs in the vicinity of a village, rescue the women and slay the orcs.’

It wasn’t like there wasn’t any possibility for relief measures towards beginners, since it’s not a forest, where overly strong monsters appear, or because they have been in a dire situation regarding the magic gem stock, but Renya hasn’t heard of such talks or rumours.

Of course it was a viewpoint that won’t leave the stage of being a conjecture. Being simply preoccupied with the forest octopuses, Renya, who noticed that possibility, is undoubtedly too late now since it’s after they were attacked by unidentified monsters in the forest.

Incidentally, in that case the report might reach the guild faster than Shion and Rona, too.
If there’s bait to angle, there should naturally be a string and a hook attached to the bait.

“The hook’s task is only to be an indication that things like the bait were bitten off. What ki…” (Renya)

Blending in with the adventurers, whose role is to be bait, there might be a party, whose role is to be the true hook.
However, the sounds, audible from within the forest, are getting less with the passage of time. Before long they can’t be heard at all anymore and the figures of another party, which leaves the forest besides Renya’s group, can’t be seen either.

“If I’m right with this conjecture, they are annoyed to willingly abide by the scheme of the planner.” (Renya)

Within Renya wells up a feeling that he wants to achieve a conclusion, like knocking the opponent out of their wits, with a single blow just like that.

However, he can’t come up with a good idea what should be done and how it should be done to induce such outcome.

This world is in a state similar to being a miniature garden placed on a tray. I heard that from that little girl before I came to this world.

Seen from another angle, how about above the tray?

If there are mountains, there’s a layer of air as well. It should have a considerable thickness.

In other words, the atmospheric pressure is the same as in my former world. Isn’t in conceivable that it has the same air layers, too?
And, isn’t it likely set up that the air will get gradually thinner the higher the altitude, just like in my former world?

“Congregate, my power, rise to the atmosphere…” (Renya)

If it’s wind-attribute magic, he has already bought notes covering all of the known spells from Khalil. Renya has finished looking through all of them.

The cast spell is an advanced spell of the wind system.

Incidentally, given that it won’t be amusing for him to suffer damage from the aftermath of his own spell, he erects a wind wall around himself.

After waiting for the deployment of the walls, Renya holds up his right hand towards the sky and continues all chants while clenching his fist as if completely grasping the air.

“Wind, rage in a whirl, strike the ground according to my desire!” (Renya)

The original incantation is 「Pierce the sky according to my desire」, but he has re-arranged the chant as well since it’s into the reverse direction.

Creating a circuit of words, the spell is completed by pouring mana into that circuit.

In a far away place.

Originally the natural phenomenon called tornado is a phenomenon of sucking up things from the ground and hurling those into the sky, but this inverse tornado sucks up everything from the sky and slaps it onto the ground.

The huge whirling tide, which reaches an overall height of 20 km, grabs a cluster of cold air from a distant height, swallows up the humidity of clouds en route and roaringly pours down on the forest in front of Renya’s eyes, who brings it all together.

“It’s a failure~ this…” (Renya)

While absent-mindedly gazing at a huge amount of white smoke, ice and unknown things streaming with a roaring sound outside of the defence walls, which are wrapping him up, Renya grumbled.

In reality it’s a circulation of creating ascending air currents with external descending air currents. The effective range of the spell might have been limited, but because an external air current wasn’t created, the cold air, which was slapped onto the ground, started to freeze the vicinity while spreading out.

In accordance with the departure of the funnel, the force of the wind, flowing in the surroundings, has become weaker.

Renya didn’t know how far the temperature of the cold air, which fell from the sky, would follow his knowledge from his former world, but if it’s according to his calculations, it should be roughly -70°C.

Renya was safe as he constructed several layers of air as wind defence walls, which were earnestly deployed multiple times. Because he was within that cocoon he was able to anticipate that he would likely freeze to death at once, if he released the walls.

“The people of this world probably don’t know something like a down-burst. Oh well, I think that even my former world didn’t have something like a down-burst, which causes such large-scale and big damage, but…” (Renya)

The forest, which is occasionally visible through breaks in the white smoke, was transformed into a brilliant white world.
Freezing trees and weeds all the same and likely all the monsters and animals, which were in there, as well, everything and anything was plunged into a homogeneous white world.

“Let’s say it was caused by a natural disaster. Yea, let’s just do that.” (Renya)

Even if I honestly reported that it was me who did it, there won’t be anyone, who believes me, anyway, I guess.

They aren’t managing this world decently anyway. They have been engrossed in playing the jindori game.
From Renya’s point of view, since I have been made to cross over into this world thanks to your negligence, you can take the blame a bit.

“At any rate…” (Renya)

Once he cancelled the spell, the huge funnel was released into the atmosphere with the same speed, as when it arrived, and vanished.

While watching the large snow flakes heavily falling and piling up, Renya complains, without talking to anyone in particular,

“After all, I have no talent for magic, boo~…” (Renya)

Even an average magician, if used normally, has no purpose if it becomes a great disaster once they use their full power.
As far as the eye can see it’s a white-dyed world. While wondering Well, when will it be alright to release the wind defence, Renya made a big, deep sigh due to creating a situation at the same level of a large-scale disaster.
