Arifureta After IIIShia ArcThe Ruin of Curse

Large splashes danced at the broad river with cloudy light broater Wave was spreading as though the river was being cut up fro upstrea in water and then jetting it out, all the chain of process was ic power in jet propulsion ly silent when co propeller ood desuu~」

Rabbit ears were energetically flapping patapatapatapata- Shia's whole body was showered by hile she narrowed her eyes pleasantly

The speed that couldn't be obtained frorant the rider with pleasant wind Even Haji the wheel nodded 「You're right」 in a good mood

「Hajime-san, Hajime-san, I also want to drive」

「……Just sit obediently there」

Shia waswith hope, but sadly Hajime whose eyes twitched for an instant rejected it Shia's cheeks puffed up roundly It was easy to guess that she was appealing 「I'm dissatisfied desu!」 with that expression

「I want to drive desuu!」

「Are you a spoiled brat Even though you puffed up your cheek like that, if I say no then no」

「Why!? Just what kind of proble」

'Heh?' Shia tilted her head in puzzleh she had just heard an unknoord It see without a doubt that it was a word that was completely unrelated and inapplicable with her

「Now see here……」

「Wha, what's with that exasperated face?」

「I'll tell you then if you don't have awareness of it……soe coht? You are exactly that kind of type Currently Schutaif feels like it's ht, if it's vehicle running with ularly, so there is no proble how many times you have been chased by the police」

「……」

Shia stared to the sky Aa, today too the sky is really clear For the sky to be this blue……

「Oi, what's theyou to say howwith a few dozen patrol cars」

「……I don't really understand what is it about I wonder――」

「Far fro 『If you can catchrecklessly You were putting out speed hway and won the race by a widewho that person could possibly be」

「……」

Shia's rabbit ears were flopping lih to say "the rabbit ears feel painful"

However, the reproachful eyes of Hajied every evil coe when she held the wheel!

「How ainst the bunches that looked like delinquents or biker gang while ot called as 『thesis』?」

「……Tha, that's a person who accidentally resembled me you know? It's a different person」

「You know, just in case Schutaif has the recognition obstruction function for its rider, and its nuet rewritten periodically, the policethe polices this person was known as 『the rah speed riot squad carried out improvement to their car in order to oppose Shia, while the squadin order to raise their driving skill, and finally even the sortie of helicopter beca, but because the cri their head in frustration……

「Tha, that's right The criminal's identity is unknown In other words, it's not eous people isn't it!」

Actually, Shia got into the hobby of driving other than herat holiday or late at night What was troubling, rather than driving in vast plain like at Tortus, she preferred to drive at maintained road like at the urban area of earth

Perhaps she had self-awareness as a bad rabbit as averting her eyes fro speed It see recklessly and hid it froh already Haji

Jii~~- Jirijiri~~~-

「Uu……」

「You think the ed that h she didn't steal anything, but she was running around at night on bike No matter how much effort was spent to capture her, she would escape And irl left no iirl"

It wasn't a complete removal of memory, so there was no way the massin the news or anything……」

「Because I dealt with it」

「Guuu」

She let out 'guu' sound Shia's gaze kept swi around a lot (TN: In Japan, there is a phrase of 'cannot even uu sound', whichback)

Haji a reproachful stare in the level of Yue while dealing the final blow

「Before this, Myuu ht with ASDFAir Self-Defense Force using toy aircraft」

「!」

「When I asked her why did she do that, 『It's unfair that only Shia-oneechan had fun nano! Even though Myuu cannot ride both Schutaif or Brieze! That's why, Myuu played with JSDF officer using Tomcat-tan! Just like Shia-neechan! Just like Shia-neechan!』 she said――」

「I'm really deeply sorryyy! I'eza posture on the deck of Triana's bow On her but, her rabbit tail was flapping patapatapata- frohed and patted Shia's head fluffily while saying

「Because of that reason, not letting Shia holding the wheel while there are other people riding together is the decidedthat was held while you were in the 」

「Tha, that kind of decision waswind……」

Shia's expression was becothat she finally accepted it, Hajied his shoulders and returned his concentration to the driving

For a while, while enjoying the wind and the sound of water, Shia suddenly titled her head saying 「Eh?」

「If everyone knohy didn't anyone stop y, but fro hobby was known already froh it would be fine if he just stopped her nor and even went as far as quieting theabout it, just now too Hajiether so he cannot leave the driving to her」, but he didn't tell her to stop her habitual reckless driving

Hajiht? Running on bike」

「……」

In other words, it was like that

He didn't stop her because it was so that Shia liked Rather, he did all in his power so that Shia could have fun

The recognition obstruction function that was installed in Schutaif was also a part of it With Shia's reflex, driving technique, and Schutaif's excellent operability that orking together with direct operation of ic power, surely there wouldn't be any incident even in the slightest chance, but twofold and threefold safety measures were still prepared ahead of time that covered even until the risk of indirect incident The counter done

Shia's expression turned into a look as though she had stuffed her cheeks full with delicious sweets that were extraordinarily sweet

And then, like that she quietly stood up and wordlessly embraced Hajime's back She circled her hands around hihtly She put her chin on Hajime's shoulder and rubbed her cheek on his side face

「Oi oi, it's getting hard to drive」

「You can directly steer usingvoice sounded as sweet as her expression Hajihtly and he fluffied Shia's head from across his shoulder

Travel date of just the two of the

If they were looked from the side, it wasn't any inferior with Hajime & Yue at their Tortus period If the classet the ar

But, at that ti near with strongHajie driftwood is――」

'Right there It's dangerous' Theto say that,

Uin! Gakon-! Pashu! Chudon-!!!

「H in direct course to block the river becah on the river that was colored with fla had happened A barrier that let wind passed but deflected rain was blocking the pouring doater However, the heat as caressing Shia's cheek

Perhaps because of the surprise from the explosion that suddenly occurred, a crocodile put out its head from the river! It tried to run away to the river bank in panic! A lot of birds were flying up fro reacted!

Uin! Gakon-! Stand b~~~~y!

「WAAAAAAAAAH, CROCODILE-SAN WATCH OO~~~UT DESU!」

Shia leaped at the gatling on the starboard and directed the muzzle up forcefully At the same time, she took out a metal ball fro, directing theat the ship's port to different direction too

Rain of bullets flew out to above and rear Shia slightly didn't make it in time and several shots attacked the crocodile-san and all the bird-san

A bullet grazed chuin! the crocodile-san and it desperately escaped in a state that it felt like「NOOOOOOO-, CROCODILE KILLERRRR!」 such screaht be from their instinct, they dispersed with movement so splendid that it felt like「BREAK! BREAK UP!」 could be heard In addition they succeeded a super dodging fro beautiful barrel roll

Shia spoke while grabbing hard on Hajime's shoulders

「Hajime-san, please switch place with me」

「Why? Just what kind of proble」

'Heh?' Hajime tilted his head in puzzleh he had just heard an unknoord It see without a doubt that it was a word that was coh the vector was different, Haji

That's dangerous driving just now! Nagu is needed desu!

After that, they were advancing for around an hour while there was scramble for the wheel on the ship

Hajime and Shia finally arrived at the riverside that was near the rumored ruin that was their destination From here onward they would walk

「Huff, huff, Hajime-san you blockhead! In the end you didn't let me to hold the wheel even once!」

「Haa, haa, na, naturally Shia's driving is dangerous after all」

Both of them mutually deployed fierce offense and defense with Triana's steering wheel in the line which caused their breathing to so at Hajiing objection with her rabbit ears looking disheveled

「It's Haji power!」

「Where Reet away unscathed if we collided with are rather an act that reer」

「Does Hajianiserous fro it」

「……About the bird-san, honestly it's not like I' bad I'll i's movement sensor later」

That wasn't it In earth where it wasn't like there was athat was functionally a sentry gun being installed in a boat, that act itself was dangerous

「……That thing was attacking auto that is operatedSentori-sensei, you said? How dare you say such rude thing」 (TN: In Japan, sentry is read as sentori Also, the sentori here is written with kanji of thousandsen, and birdtori, which is sentry gun's nickna on romance couldn't be stopped by anyone If it wasn't Yue's 'chuu chuu' or Shia's backdrop

Shia let out a sigh, then shee go ho, she overlooked Haji hobby After all, he also overlooked her hobby

Both of theether and stepped inside the thick forest that was growing up densely

They walked through trackless path They were cutting down leaves and branches rapidly using large hatchet They decided the direction where they should be heading using hand-written e They weren't using the Coreatly troubleso around a hatchet and cutting open the path in front looked like she was really having fun Her rabbit ears werethe jutting out branches

Just when he thought that she liked running through the city, she also liked to go through a pathless forest In the end, Shia could have fun with anything, in fact, she had fun with everything It was the way of this gloriously simple rabbit

「This place is really not bad at all isn't it? The river is nearby, and fro this here, plants that look edible are also abundant」

Haji that sounded like a person searching for an apart the site condition Certainly, they were co such coration require store was near, and there was also convenience store nearby, was actually really wild

「Even after people frequently passed through here, but right now there is no sign of that at all It just like the people in the village said, this o near It's not bad for Kar as they don't cross the river using boat, it will be necessary to take quite a far detour」

In the , Shia hopped When Hajiaze, several s there Hajime also avoided theht way?」

「Her desuu」

The hatchet's movehtly and cut through branches with a single stroke She advanced forward Looking closer, the branches that she were going to cut first had spider web laid out on the quietly on it For thethe spider web so not to destroy it

「Oops, it's dangerous you know~」
