Mob MC 92.2

Test

Chapter 92.2. Loki and The Mercenary


-???'s POV-

"Honey!"

"Yeah, darling!"

[Hayate]

Invoking similar magic, Flora embraces Zephyrus as he jumps into her arms, invoking the power of Anemoi's divine weapon.

[Wind Teleport]

Their body melts into the wind and begins to teleport to other marked hideouts.

"Haha, I don't know how you found me. Bye!"

His vision shifted, and he made the transition. That's what's supposed to happen. But when the wind disappeared. The teleportation wasn't triggered, and the three were still in front of them.

"Hey! Why!"

"That reaction was already been predicted by Loki."

With a bored expression, the beautiful woman pointed her gun at the surprised Zephyrus.

"Looks like I don't have to show you the power of great magic."

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 gun's 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.

"Na!"

"Gyaah!"

But the rock bullet penetrated the storm's 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, Zephyrus's mouth tightens as he sees the darkness in front of him.

"I thought underestimating your enemy was the Japanese way, you merciless bastard!"

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.

"Hmm, that didn't take long."

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, I'll equip Anemoi, but I'm a mob, so I don't care.

There is something else I care about.

"Grandpa, maybe you finished it in one blow for me?"

"Hmmm, You're blood relatives, aren't you? I don't care, and I don't think the young lady cares either, but Frigg did."

With a bored look, Grandpa Odin turns his attention to Frigg-oneesan. Oh, that's surprising. Frigg-oneesan took care of him.

"He's still your father's brother, isn't he? I was thinking about your future."

"Thank you........., Frigg-oneesan."

That's not very Frigg-onesaan-like caring. As Grandpa Odin said, I don't think she should be concerned. He was someone who put my family in danger. I wouldn't 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.

"I would have appreciated it more if I didn't see you opening the trunk case, Frigg-oneesan."

"What? We'd better make a quick getaway. It's not good. That's why the trunk case. Oh, jewelry and ingots! Bingo, I knew he had something valuable"

Hyah-hoo, Frigg-oneesan popped open the trunk case that propped up next to the couch and gave a little leap of faith. She's overjoyed to find it filled with jewelry, platinum, and gold ingots. If it weren't for this, she'd be the perfect female spy.

"Do you want to leave any sign that Zephyrus was here?"

Without any sign that Zephyrus was there, I would be able to blame Zephyrus for the bad things to come. So Grandpa asks, but... I'm lost.

"Hmmm... ....... Did this couple have a son anywhere?"

I am sure there was one silly son.

"No, they didn't. There were just a couple of mercenaries here and  suspicious goons."

"That boy was abandoned?"

I feel a little sorry for him, but maybe he was lucky because if he had been here, his life would have been doomed.

"He didn't seem like a man who cared about his son."

"Right. That means the boy gets abandoned somewhere. Yeah, let's leave a trail of dead Zephyros and the others. We can blame Loki for what we're going to do, but we're not going to blame Zephyrus. I don't like the idea of a son suffering for something his parents didn't do. Well, I was the one who was going to self-destruct even if I left it alone."

There's no need to lay blame needlessly. Loki is there.

"Maybe he'll turn into a vengeful man, you know?"

"I killed the one who came to kill me. You can be vengeful all you want. I'm not as nice as Shin. Well, then, clear out~. Just make sure he doesn't know who killed him."

I look back at the teasing goddess's testing eyes, stick out my tiny tongue, and reply begrudgingly. I don't feel that guilty.

I'm not nice enough to save someone who came to kill me. As you said before, I'm Loki, the arrogant god.
