Boy Who Has Been Reincarnated Twice Spends Peacefully as an S-Rank Adventurer

The character name is not finalized. The character name will be fix once the official English translation light novel is release.

“GYAAAAAAAAAA!!”

I fled.

I fled with all my might.

Throwing away shame, pride, and everything else, I fled.

That thing is different.

Clearly different, abnormal.

Someone who can take on an assault from thousands of monsters and 50 Demons without a scratch, and annihilate them with a single spell… such a being shouldn’t be possible.

That is something else in the shape of a human.

“Hey, wait!”

“Hii!?”

A voice chasing me can be heard from behind.

Moreover, it’s close! Quite close!

I run desperately.

But I am already running at full speed.

I cannot run any faster than this.

You might say, “Then fly, are the wings on your back just for show?” But if I try to fly, there will be an opening, however brief.

The moment I jump up, my speed will drop slightly.

That slight drop in speed will undoubtedly invite my death.

This isn’t a deduction; my instincts are telling me so.

But at this rate, I will definitely be caught.

Even now, the distance is closing little by little.

“What should I do… what should I do…!?”

At that moment, I remembered the existence of a certain object.

“That’s right, with this!?”

The item on my right finger is something I received from That Person.

Though disposable, it is a magic item ring imbued with the power of teleportation that allows me to escape from this place instantly upon activation.

“Needs must when the devil drives!”

It is shameful to use a precious item for escaping, but this is no time to say such things.

“Ring! Guide me!”

Chanting the activation word, the ring activates.

◆

In the next instant, my body was thrown into a mysterious space.

“Wh-Where is this!?”

I was surprised by the sudden change in scenery, but I immediately remembered the situation and hurriedly looked back.

But only a mysterious space spread out there, and the figure of that terrifying Dragon Emperor was nowhere to be found.

“I did it! I got away!”

I savored the joy of escaping from the Dragon Emperor with my whole body.

Strength left my body along with relief, replaced by a warm feeling filling my heart.

Ah, just knowing the enemy isn’t here makes a (Demon) person feel so peaceful.

Regaining my composure, I finally recovered enough judgment to look at the surrounding situation.

“…Hmm, is this what they call subspace?”

There was nothing around me, and the surrounding scenery was a mysterious spectacle where multiple indescribable colors were constantly mixing and changing.

It is said that teleportation magic items, starting with gates, guide the user to the destination space via subspace.

Then this must be subspace.

“But teleporting using a gate didn’t result in appearing in a space like this; is this a phenomenon unique to this magic item?”

I worried that I might be left behind in subspace forever like this, but then I saw a small light shining ahead in my vision.

“That is…”

As I approached the light, a familiar scene became visible within it.

“Ohh!”

Thank goodness, it seems the magic item wasn’t defective.

Rejoicing from the bottom of my heart that I could return to a safe place, I pondered how to defeat that monster.

Fighting at close range is out of the question.

Even from a long distance, if noticed, it’s over.

Even a simultaneous attack by 50 brethren and thousands of monsters was impossible.

Is there no good way…?

“Oops, I won’t let you escape.”

That’s right, if I fail, this time the Dragon Emperor will…

“…Eh?”

I feel like I just heard a sound I shouldn’t have heard…

I fearfully looked back.

And there…

“Heave-ho!”

There was the figure of the Dragon Emperor forcibly prying open subspace and entering.

“THAT’S UNREASONABLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!”

What is that!? Bare hands!? Prying open subspace with bare hands!?

Why!? What do you have to do to be able to do that!?

“Hihah…”

A scream that wasn’t even a scream leaked from my mouth.

I’m going to die. I’m going to die. Undoubtedly die.

To think he chased me even into subspace after I escaped using a teleportation magic item…

N-No good, at this rate, I’ll be killed.

Even if I escape to the original space, the Dragon Emperor will come along as a set.

Either way, I die!! Undoubtedly die!

“Nunu.”

However, at that moment, I saw a ray of hope in the Dragon Emperor’s figure.

The Dragon Emperor’s body hasn’t completely entered subspace yet.

Half his body, his lower body, is still buried in the original space, and it looks like he’s in the middle of pulling himself out.

This is a chance!

Even at this moment, the light to return to the original space is getting closer.

Then if I kick him out of this subspace, I won’t have to worry about the Dragon Emperor following me to my base when I return to the original space!

“Then! The only chance is now, while the Dragon Emperor cannot move freely!”

I unleashed an attack with all my might at the Dragon Emperor, who was trying to pull his body out of the original space.

“DIE, DRAGON EMPEROR!!!!!!!!!”

The magic that hit the Dragon Emperor exploded, and the aftermath raged within the subspace.

The explosion of magic at close range injures my own body, but such a thing is trivial.

What’s important is to kick the Dragon Emperor out of this subspace.

“In that state where a part of his body is still connected to the original space, he cannot evade properly!”

Moreover, just before the explosion, the Dragon Emperor showed no sign of using defense magic.

In other words, there is no doubt that the Dragon Emperor took a direct hit from my magic.

I fired the magic intending to kick him out of subspace, but this might have resulted in an outcome even greater than that.

“F-Fuhaha, having taken a direct hit from my full-power attack, even the Dragon Emperor…”

“Blast Lancer!”

A giant spear of magic power passed right by my side.

Immediately after, sharp pain ran through my wing.

“Gwaaaaaaaa!!”

Looking, there is a large hole in my prized wing.

The wing is almost torn off; it looks impossible to fly.

“M-My wing…”

“Good grief, attacking suddenly like that, you surprised me.”

“!?”

That voice heard again froze my spine.

Returning my gaze, there was the figure of the Dragon Emperor without a single scratch.

“I… Impossible!?”

Ridiculous!? Unharmed by my magic without even using defense magic!?

Humans cannot use magic without chanting spells, and in the first place, a raw human body is incomparably more fragile than us Demons, so why is he alive!?

“Ah, huh?”

It was at that moment.

The Dragon Emperor’s body began to be swallowed by subspace.

“No, wrong, is he being ejected back to the original space!?”

“Kuh! Blast Lancer!”

Just before being pulled back to the original space, the Dragon Emperor fired magic again.

But setting aside a surprise attack, magic whose aim became sloppy due to resisting being pulled back won’t hit me!

Trying to force the magic must have been a mistake.

By firing the magic, his resistance to the pulling force weakened, and the Dragon Emperor’s body was pushed back to the original space all at once.

At the same time, I was wrapped in a dazzling light.

“Kuh!?”

And when I slowly opened my eyes, I was in a familiar room.

“D-Did I return…?”

I was stunned for a moment looking around, but immediately remembering what happened just now, I looked behind me.

I hurriedly applied a High Potion to my nearly torn wing to stop the bleeding.

Treatment with a High Potion won’t make flight possible immediately, but the important thing is to stop the bleeding.

Full-scale treatment can be done later.

I remained vigilant, looking around repeatedly to see if the Dragon Emperor would tear space and appear again, but no matter how long I waited, there was no sign of the Dragon Emperor appearing.

“…D-Did I escape… for real this time?”

With the worry of the Dragon Emperor chasing me gone, strength left my body along with relief.

“I-I survived, I surviveeeeeeeeeed!!”

Only one person, the only survivor is myself.

If That Person learns of this, I will be severely punished.

But even so, I rejoiced from the bottom of my heart that I survived.

◆

“Yup, there’s a reaction.”

Pushed back to the original space, I checked the marker’s reaction without panic.

“Hmm, hmm, doesn’t seem to be that far away.”

At that time, realizing the Demon used a teleportation magic item, I immediately intervened in the teleportation magic, found the resulting spatial distortion, and pried it open.

I tried to defeat the Demon right there, but considering the high encounter rate with Demons recently, I thought defeating one wouldn’t mean much.

Because even if I defeat a Demon here, there’s a high possibility another Demon will commit another evil deed.

That was easy to imagine considering the battles with Demons so far.

So I thought about having him take me to the Demons’ base, but thinking carefully, everyone is still in the middle of fighting in the town.

If I teleport to the Demons’ base now, it will take time to return to the town.

Naturally, I can’t leave the town alone.

Thinking that, I pretended to attack the Demon and drove in a marker that allows me to know the opponent’s location.

As planned, the opponent hasn’t realized the marker was driven in due to the shock and pain of having his wing damaged.

After that, I pretended to be pushed out to the original space and left subspace, and after returning to the original space, I confirmed that the marker was working properly.

“The marker is working properly, so with this, I can teleport to that Demon‘s place anytime.”

Knowing that, the rest is just to annihilate the monsters attacking the town.

I defeated the monsters that came at me earlier in a bunch, but since I weakened the power so as not to involve everyone, I haven’t completely finished them off.

“Well then, let’s quickly finish off the remaining monsters!”
