Baron Cockroach
The pale-faced devil in an all-black suit quickly stood up from the sofa and pointed his staff at us.
And,
"6th rank dark attribute magic, summon cockroach!"
When he chanted this, a magic circle appeared from the void, and a large number of cockroaches appeared.
"Darn it! Was this the one that caused the cockroaches to appear!"
I bit my lip.
I thought there were no cockroaches in this world!
Why does this guy go to the trouble of summoning cockroaches from Earth?
If anything, I want him to summon beetles and stag beetles that can be resold!
Well, I don't know if it will sell in another world.
And when I was irritated with the devil,
"Ced-kun. They seem much stronger than the cockroaches we've seen before."
Anastasia pointed out calmly, as if she had confirmed it with her appraisal.
"Yeah, it’s a cockroach that was summoned using 6th rank dark attribute magic!"
The devil was nonchalantly using 6th rank magic, which is said to be usable only by sages. There's no way he's weak.
"6th rank dark attribute magic, body strengthening +2!"
Anastasia also counters with a 6th rank dark attribute magic, just like the devil.
I'm glad I made Anastasia a sage.
If I hadn't turned Anastasia into a sage, we would have been overrun by those dangerous-looking cockroaches and eaten alive.
"Alright! My body is filled with power!"
Crash*!
Reinhard let out a roar and blocked the large army of cockroaches with his shield.
"Kenji, come forward!"
"Understood! Ced-nii!"
Kenji and I charge at the cockroaches.
"Take that, take that!"
Slash*, slash*, slash*, slash*!
Kenji and I cut the cockroaches into small pieces.
It reminds me of when I just became an adventurer...
Back then, the two of us always cut goblins into pieces together.
The two names we were given at that time were [Slum's Goblin Duo].
It was given to us by an adventurer who happened to see me and Kenji fighting goblins.
When the adventurer party discovered a group of goblins, they went to defeat them, only to find that the goblins had split up and were now fighting amongst themselves.
The adventurers waited until they had finished fighting with each other before they tried to defeat the goblins, but there were only two goblins that were extremely strong.
The two goblins were said to have been stained red from the return blood.
However, after observing them for a while, they realized that they were not goblins at all, but human children.
In the end, the two children, who were the same size as goblins, swung their swords and killed all of the ten or more goblins.
After that shocking incident, Kenji and I came to be known as [Slum's Goblin Duo].
I am standing next to Kenji, remembering such an old story.
This would have been impossible in my days as a ragged adventurer before I became a skeleton.
I am now standing next to Kenji with only my pure sword skills.
Of course, if I could use magic, I would definitely be far more capable.
Now I can proudly say to anyone that I am Kenji's big brother!
"Master! That's wonderful! Sword Saint!"
Shiro was quick to give me a compliment.
As Kenji's older brother who has two names, [Sword Demon], I wanted a name that would go beyond [Sword Demon].
Shiro! Say more!
It's all going according to plan.
Yes, this is the plan I was talking about before, to make my new cool nickname spread.
"It's amazing! Your swordsmanship is unbelievable! As I thought, Master is worthy of the name [Sword Saint]!"
Shiro's praise never stops.
I'm going to imprint my new nickname on the [Falcon Claw] and have it spread throughout the Amru Adventurers Guild.
That's right, I don't need names like [Golden Demon King] which sounds like the leader of evil.
I am a genuine hero.
"Nee-san... what have you been saying since a while ago...
It's impossible for Cedric, who has a dark attribute, to be a [Sword Saint]...
If I had to guess, I'd say [Sword Darkness]?"
Due to Reinhard, I was denied the nickname I thought of.
[Sword Darkness] is a bad enough word, and I've never heard of it.
Since I'm a light-attribute hero, I don't mind using the word saint in my nickname!
A holy sword is indispensable for a hero, so my nickname should also be [Sword Saint]!
"Reinhardt, if you insult Master any further, I will kill you!
Master's nickname is [Sword Saint].
This is a decision made by Master.
And Reinhard's job is to spread Master's new nickname in the Amru Adventurers' Guild."
Shiro showers Reinhard with demon-like killing intent.
"Ah... Nee-san.... please give me a break for now... I'm pretty much occupied with stopping the cockroaches..."
Reinhard was sandwiched between cockroaches and Shiro and was sweating coldly.
"Hey... you guys... Are you underestimating me, Baron Cockroach, a subordinate under the control of the Demon King-sama, and a subordinate of Amaimon-sama, one of the four Demon Generals?"
What, the devil is talking.
"Shut up! I’m talking to Reinhard!"
Shiro snapped when he talked back to her.
Ominous aura overflows from Shiro's body,
Then, the lower half of her body changed to that of a spider, becoming Arachne's original form for the first time in a long time.
"I will kill anyone who insults Master!"
Her hair changes from pink to its original color, and six bright red eyes open.
It was Shiro's turn, the feared [White Devil] of the Amru Adventurer's Guild.
