The great mage who transcends by returning, episode 327
“Oh.”
Remegeton moved his body around as if it were strange.
Movement is very natural.
In the first place, his appearance wasn’t that different from that of a human, but what should I say now….
‘Is it lively?’
Yes, I feel like I have a life.
Previously, the guy was close to imitating a human, but now it can be considered just a human.
– Made some light adjustments.
said Weiss, arms crossed.
– This is why I asked the contractor for some time. Even if I think…It’s true that I left it so irresponsible.
“what are you saying. It was something you should have done right away, right?”
Remegeton grunted and moved his body diligently.
Even though he said that, his expression didn’t look bad, as if he liked the ‘adjustment’ he received this time.
“I don’t think there’s any restrictions on being attached to the mansion anymore. I feel more real…It’s good.”
– then…Good thing.
After saying that, Wise sneaked back towards me.
After temporarily resolving the conflict with the apostle, Wise was broken by Remegeton in a truly miserable way.
…mentally.
Strictly speaking, Remegeton is a being born from Solomon, and broadly speaking, it is like a child.
Remegeton pressed Wise with exactly that logic, and all Wise could do was listen to the resentment of his children, which had been concentrated for hundreds of years….
Anyway, the situation after such a fight is right now.
Weiss immediately adjusted Remegeton’s condition, changing it to function more humanly.
The restrictions that imprisoned him were drastically reduced and changed to a minimum safety device.
It was necessary.
As long as we gave Remegeton freedom, it was only natural to give him the ‘right to enjoy life’ as well.
As a bonus, this will allow you to move more efficiently.
“Lemegeton, you return to the family right away and check that there are no unnecessary movements. Can you do it?”
“Now, it certainly seems like it would be much easier than before…After all, the apostle is always watching over the mansion, so there’s no need to worry, right?”
“I need. Anubis will no longer defend the mansion.”
Unlike the other apostles, Anubis has a relatively wide range of maneuver.
That means there are a lot of tools to use. Then what?
“I’m going to roll it all over the place.”
“…hmm.”
Remegeton nodded with a strange expression.
For an instant, I saw sympathy for Anubis in his eyes, but he said,
“Yeah, do it yourself.”
disappeared soon after. He must have thought deeply anyway to realize that he was the only one to lose.
“Oh, and soon my colleagues will come out of the arrangement.”
“Do you have anything to say?”
“What are you doing with that good power? Of course I have to work hard while I finish this job.”
Herma, the butler of Rihanna Aileen.
The four are also great resources for each individual. Even if the arrangements were finished, it would have become even stronger.
Lian and Eileen would have reached the level of masters.
In the case of the butler, the 8th circle?
Even if it wasn’t for magic, Herma would have achieved quite a bit in terms of knowledge.
Then you can’t make fun of those four.
If the Demon God destroyed the kingdom first and swallowed the sacrifice, then we should fight back too.
“What if I roll?”
“What is it?”
The next goal that I was thinking of stopping by after solving this tomb.
“< Pandemonium >.”
“…!”
Remegeton’s eyes widened.
“Wait, Pandaemonium? Why are you there all of a sudden? It’s the headquarters of the great devil there. Besides, I don’t even belong to this world completely in the first place….”
“I know the approximate location.”
The reason I haven’t been able to touch it so far is because the great demons are alive and well and I’m not ready.
But now it’s different.
My comrades must have become strong enough through arrangements, and I don’t have to bother looking at them anymore.
Besides, what’s important is….
“Because the rest of the Great Demons haven’t fully descended yet.”
“ah.”
Speaking of the great devils in the current world, Enoch and something else are all.
In other words, at this point, ‘Pandemonium’ is like an open door.
“Well, I’m not asking you to play Pandaemonium with the four of us. It’s all about finding the location I gave you and opening the ‘road’.”
“Would you like to join us right after finishing this job and play Pandaemonium?”
“That’s it.”
Remegeton nodded, as if my words didn’t sound absurd at all.
“Okay, let me pass it on.”
Before leaving with those words, he turned his eyes toward Weiss, who was hiding behind me.
– …uh hmm
Wise stood there, flinching behind me with a very awkward expression on her face, but Lemegeton couldn’t see something like that.
the guy said
“Well, I regretted it and resented it a lot, but I will still say this.”
The boy lowered his head as he spoke.
“Thank you for giving me birth, ‘Father’.”
– ….
Weiss was silent for a moment.
He just stood there with a bewildered expression, brooding over the last words he said.
“I wanted to say that.”
Remegeton also smiled and disappeared as if he had been hoping for an answer. It wasn’t until after the guy disappeared that Weiss’s bewildered expression eased a bit.
And he let out a small sigh.
– …Because it’s ‘Wise’.
It was so gruff.
* * *
“Are you going right away?”
“Yes, it should.”
I have already explained to Ariandel about the next destination.
She is already ready to go.
It was a small number of people to go to the realm of demons, but it’s better to do this now.
“Is it old-fashioned?”
“Yes, in the current situation, a small number of elites are more efficient than hitting them with sheep.”
I guess it’s a kind of duo operation?
If I’m messing around in the front yard for no reason, the eyes will naturally be drawn to me.
Now.
“Let’s go.”
To the site of the old small kingdoms Ake and Menes, now degraded to the land of demons.
* * *
The site of two small kingdoms once called Ake and Menes.
“Huh ha…ha ha ha…!”
Looking at the scene unfolding in front of me, a middle-aged man was laughing madly. Tears flowed from the eyes of the middle-aged man who laughed like that.
“Oh my gosh…I didn’t want this….”
he was a knight
A knight of a ruined kingdom that is now gone.
In just a few days, he lost his lord and other precious ties.
It wasn’t even that long.
However, that time separated the knight’s fate. A god with malice against mankind has risen, and has chosen two small kingdoms as his ‘sacrifice’.
Achaemenes.
The middle-aged man giggled helplessly as he knelt at the border where the small kingdom once bordered the territory.
The appearance of a middle-aged knight was unreasonable. Everywhere was covered with wounds and blood was flowing.
He left behind the corpses of monsters piled up on a hill and headed somewhere, dragging one leg that couldn’t move well.
A sad bloody path followed the knight.
“Uhhh….”
With trembling hands, he took two glasses from his bosom.
I didn’t even have the strength to do anything anymore. Originally, it would have taken a long time, but it might be better to do it here….
“…no no no.”
But then he shook his head and put the glass back in. Both arms and legs do not move properly.
Still can’t stop
It was miserable to suddenly become a knight of ruin, but that doesn’t mean you can give up your ‘duty’.
– Friend Hmm…Should I say no? First of all, it’s your lord.
– Damn it anyway.
Two voices came into my head.
The knight raised his body with difficulty and raised his head. Then he struggled to move on again.
…I have to go.
there.
Even if it’s hard, even if it’s meaningless.
Isn’t that what a knight is? It is a knight to bind oneself with rules and morals that are not even funny.
– When the end comes, let’s all clink glasses together.
“…Yes, that’s how it should be.”
The knight moved on.
to keep promises.
because that’s a knight
He muttered the words he had repeated many times and moved his body with difficulty.
* * *
“…under.”
As soon as I arrived, the sight that unfolded in front of my eyes was very devastating.
no, i’m used to it…should I say
“I didn’t want to see this again until now….”
I bit my teeth and looked around.
Blood and death are everywhere.
Swarms of maggots were wriggling in the blood puddles everywhere, and the corpses were being chewed on by demons or rotting while being torn apart randomly.
Naturally, no one was seen alive anywhere.
[really…It’s soggy energy that makes you feel sick.]
– It’s a fucking sight, really.
Of course, the expressions of Set and Wise watching the scene were also not good.
Both of them must have been accustomed to this kind of sight, but that didn’t make the discomfort go away.
Two small kingdoms, Ake and Menes, which perished without warning not long ago.
now we were there
I’m so fucking used to it.
“…Are you okay, Mikhail?”
“Yes, it is fine.”
It would be a lie if the memories from before the return didn’t come to mind, but it wasn’t to the point of being a problem.
“By the way, it’s been a while since I’ve seen < Patron Saint's Blessing >.”
Ugh.
A sacred, gigantic light like heavenly wings was protecting the two of us from the surroundings.
< Blessing of the patron saint >.
A blessing that forcibly turns a certain area around the seat of the saintess into a ‘sacred ground.’
No, it would be nice to see it as authority.
Because the power that Hekaura can exercise is manifested in Ariandel, the incarnation of it.
Before returning, we were able to reach the devil’s nose because of this < patron saint's blessing >.
“How are you doing?”
Ariandel proudly puffed out her chest with her hands on her hips.
Then he looked at me.
“Are you sure about the performance?”
“Yes, I think I have become a little stronger than before the return….”
“Because then and now are completely different in terms of Hekau-sama’s intervention.”
“surely….”
Well, that’s what I was aiming for in the first place, and I also made it a priority to solve the problem of the Gyokguk.
Anyway, thanks to the < Patron Saint's Blessing >, I was able to enter this place more easily than I thought. There was no need to take unnecessary damage.
“Even before the regression, this ‘stealth’ was really useful….”
“This is because I was able to avoid unnecessary battles. Well, there were definitely times like that.”
All kinds of monsters were roaming around right now.
They just don’t notice our existence itself.
I don’t know if it’s the great devil.
There is no way that only monsters or low-level demons could notice our existence wrapped in blessings.
It’s not far to the grave.
However, if the premise is that this area has been sacrificed to demons and is being used as a bridgehead to devour other lands….
‘The Great Devil must be guarding it.’
It’s fine if there’s only one, but maybe there are two.
Then you should be a little more determined.
“Come to think of it, the small kingdom that was originally here. It seems that the evaluation was not bad.”
“Yes, it was.”
Ake and Menes were a kingdom that could never be seen as large.
But the reviews weren’t bad.
The King of Ake and the King of Menes were not people with a sense of superiority peculiar to the privileged class.
Is it because it is small?
They were quite easy-going, and it seems that they sometimes secretly came out of the palace in disguise to mingle with the people on the streets.
“…It’s unfortunate. I always kept in my head the fact that I couldn’t keep everything.”
“According to rumors, there seems to have been someone called the ‘Knight of the Bridgehead’ between the two royal families.”
“Oh, I heard that too.”
Generally, a knight serves only one lord.
If you serve the two, it’s a bat, but how can you call it a knight? Serving the two lords in the first place is an act that does not fit the chivalry.
But only one.
Did you say that there is a knight who serves two lords contrary to the natural ‘chivalry’?
Obviously the name….
[Michael!]
Seth exclaimed in an urgent voice.
[Over there!]
I raised my head at those words.
Of course, what Set is talking about is not simply ahead. Let’s focus our attention in the direction she points….
“person?”
someone was down
A person who is still alive.
