I Was Reincarnated As An Instructor In An R18 Game... - Chapter 120
I ran while carrying Hilbide and caught up with the slowly moving carriage.
I don’t think it’s possible to get inside the carriage with the royal family, but they’ll probably allow at least one person to take refuge on the driver’s seat.
Thinking that, I called out to the soldier who was in the driver’s seat.
The soldier looked at Hilbide and nodded readily, then let them sit next to him.
Roy breathed a sigh of relief at them being allowed to sit, but I knew that not letting them sit would be problematic for the royal family.
What’s problematic is that Hilbide has come to the Libertonia Kingdom under the guise of an inspection from the prosperous nation of Yurlal.
In other words, if we refuse, it could damage the friendly relations with the prosperous nation Yurlal.
Why Hilbide was chosen as a member of the inspection team is not explained in the game.
There was a theory from the analysis team that Hilbide’s future bride, the duke’s daughter, might be involved in this.
In reality, it is the duke’s daughter who is providing full support to Hilbide.
This becomes clear when playing Free Play and completing quests in the prosperous nation, Yurlal.
I couldn’t help but think it was a small act of mischief by Overworld’s developers…
They hint at things you wouldn’t notice if you’re only playing the story mode, during Free Play.
Conversely, things you wouldn’t notice in Free Play are hinted at during the story mode.
In other words, Overworld’s developers probably want players to experience both story mode and Free Play.
However, both have so much content that you can currently only play one of them.
…That level of volume is actually what made it so popular.
When I looked behind at the bright light shining from behind, I saw Foria casting a light spell.
I raised my voice so that everyone around could hear me.
“The place that glows under the light is the core! Don’t use magic, attack with your weapons!”
“Is that true!?”
“Did you hear that!?”
“Obey the instructor! We’ll make it back safely!”
“Knights, you heard that, right!? Trust the instructor’s words now!”
The adventurers were the first to move in response to my words.
The knights and soldiers seemed to be hesitating, unsure whether to follow my words.
I know it’s hard to believe, but hurry up!
If you hesitate, the number of casualties will keep increasing!
Just as I was about to shout at the slow-moving knights and soldiers, the door of the carriage that passed by opened forcefully.
At the sound of the door opening, I quickly turned around, shocked and dumbfounded.
Princess Alerias, in a flowing white dress, leaned halfway out of the door, her br3asts larger than melons swaying.
“Follow Reid-sama’s words! I, Alerias Libertonia, will take full responsibility!
After shouting that, she was pulled back inside, and the door was closed by a knight.
….Hahaha, she’s really quite the tomboy!
Thanks to Princess Alerias’s words, the knights and soldiers began targeting the core illuminated by the light created by Foria.
The approaching Blue Slimes disappear when their core is attacked, scattering blue liquid onto the ground.
However, the speed at which they reproduce is faster, so their numbers do not decrease.
I ran ahead of Foria and the others, pulled out a spear from my Magic Bag, and thrust it into the shimmering core.
I slashed sideways and thrust forward, taking down the Blue Slimes, while shouting to the knights and soldiers around me.
“You understand how to defeat them now, right!? Go to the castle gate, tell them about this, and prepare to strike all at once!”
“What about you!?”
“Me!? I’ll be the decoy as much as I can! If no one stays behind, they’ll run out of bait! Otherwise, they’ll reach the castle gate too quickly!”
“…! Got it! Don’t die!”
“Of course!!”
While watching the knights and soldiers retreating after defeating the Blue Slimes, I kept killing the advancing Blue Slimes.
In the worst case, even without light magic, I have a way to defeat the Blue Slimes.
While swinging the spear with one hand, I take out a slime from my Magic Bag.
Yes, it’s a normal slime.
At first glance, it seems like the Blue Slime has no weaknesses, but in fact, it does.
Everyone is too caught up in the chaos to notice, but when the Blue Slime appears.
During that time, no other types of slimes show up.
After testing it in the game, I found out that it seems the Blue Slime rejects other types of slimes when they’re absorbed.
This isn’t just limited to Blue Slimes; it applies to other types of slimes as well.
Holding the slime in one hand, I swung the spear with the other and looked back with just my eyes.
The knights were falling back to catch up with the carriage, while the soldiers and adventurers fought, relying on Foria’s light.
“You guys, head to the castle gate too! This place is dangerous!”
“I think Reid-san is saying something!”
“I can’t hear a thing!”
“Soldiers, did you hear that!?”
“Are you talking about alcohol!?”
Everyone’s eyes were pleading with me, as if saying they wouldn’t retreat.
Even if we lure the Blue Slimes here, the hordes on both sides are heading towards the castle gates.
It’s clear to everyone that we can only delay for a short time.
By luring them here, we’ll save Princess Alerias, who’s running along the road, as well as travelers and merchants
I was about to swing my spear at the Blue Slime coming from the left, but a purple-haired boy stepped in and took it down.
I exclaimed in surprise, my voice tinged with anger.
“Why didn’t you escape with the carriage, Roy!?”
“I was too late to escape!”
“This… I’m going to lecture you later!”
“That applies to you too, doesn’t it, Instructor!?”
As Roy attacked with his longsword, covering my left side, he smiled slightly and said to me.
I gritted my teeth lightly, swung my spear, glanced around at everyone, and sighed softly.
If I end up alone, in the worst case, I could cover my body in slime and manage somehow.
Sh1t, this was my mistake.
I should’ve said something beforehand!
There’s no helping it now, I brace myself and shout.
“Form a circle around Foria! The tired ones inside, the healthy ones outside! We’ll make it back alive!”
“Yes!”
[Yeah!!]
I acknowledge everyone’s answers with a nod, then continue attacking with my spear, leaving my side to Roy.
I keep an eye on the adventurers and soldiers behind, ready to pull out a sword from the Magic Bag and throw it for support if things get dangerous.
Seeing everyone slowly wear out, I make sure not to lose my calm.
If I panic in a situation like this, it’s over. I stay calm, keep defeating the Blue Slimes, and continuously check on everyone.
I wonder how many I’ve taken down. Our feet are surrounded by pools of Blue Slime liquid.
I glance toward the castle gates and see the soldiers starting to form ranks.
Just a little more, can we make it?
Every time the Blue Slimes from both sides approach the castle gate, a horde of Blue Slimes surrounds us and attacks.
Even though Foria is A-rank, her magical power isn’t infinite.
I don’t have enough slime to distribute to everyone here.
I turn my head slightly to look behind and see Princess Alerias’s carriage arriving at the castle gates.
Seeing that, I kill another Blue Slime and shout out.
“Princess Alerias has reached the castle gates! We’re retreating in this formation!”
Breathing heavily, everyone nods at my words and begins to retreat.
Roy next to me is having a hard time answering, but he looks at me and nods strongly.
I grit my teeth, hoping we can make it to the castle gates.
Suddenly, the swarm of Blue Slimes near Roy burst into liquid and disappeared without a trace.
It wasn’t just one or two.
They vanished so completely that I could see the plain.
We were all so stunned by what happened that we couldn’t take our eyes off where the Blue Slimes had vanished.
I was even more surprised by the soft sensation on my cheek and when Sharle’s angry voice echoed in my ear.
“Now’s not the time for a lecture, is it?”
At the same time as those words, the swarm of Blue Slimes on my right side also disappeared.
The sound of Blue Slimes bursting all at once makes me curious about how it was accomplished.
Only the swarm in front remains.
Snapping back to reality, I adjust my grip on my spear, but Sharle’s voice stops me.
“Please retreat, quickly!”
“…Understood. Everyone, run to the castle gate! I’ll join you! Go!”
Everyone nods firmly to my words and retreats even faster than before.
I fall back, following everyone’s retreat, and provide support for Roy, whose movements are sluggish.
He fought well to this point; the main character isn’t just for show.
While retreating, I defeat the Blue Slimes coming toward me from the front and lend a hand to Roy, whose legs have become tangled.
Roy’s face shows clear signs of exhaustion, and I carry him on my shoulder while running.
“Instructor… I’m sorry!”
“It’s fine, don’t worry about it.”
I throw away my spear to deal with the Blue Slimes chasing me and take a slime from my Magic Bag to throw, causing them to vanish.
Just as I turn to face forward and brace my legs, I hear the popping sound of Blue Slimes from behind and stop to look back.
The swarm of Blue Slimes that had been chasing us was gone, and all that remained was liquid scattered across the ground.
I catch my breath, scanning the area for any sign of Blue Slimes.
I couldn’t spot any Blue Slimes, and even after looking for anything moving, there was nothing.
I set Roy, whom I had been carrying, down on the ground and let out a sigh of relief, murmuring.
“It’s over… I suppose.”
“Your punishment isn’t over yet.”
At Sharle’s angry words, I can’t help but smile wryly.
It’s clear I’ve really angered her, but I wonder what she’ll do to me.
I really hope it doesn’t involve any pain.
I’m not good with pain…
