Never touch Eldmia Egga - Episode 485

[485[Tuesday] God knows

After reading it, what came to mind was the image the Inquisitors showed when fighting the axe-man near my house..

They were skilled warriors, strong, and skilled in group warfare, but they could not properly respond to the mighty power that burned the life of the twisted axeman. I also don't know if there is something that can be called a regular method, but in any case, it would have been difficult to win using the general method..

What more explanation is needed when it takes even Siegfried time to catch the illusion wizard's transformation? By ordinary people's standards, they are quite unresponsive..

Such people are operating as the forces of the Demon King's army within the Demon Territory and are oppressing the Holy Maiden and the Demon Church. Since even Suseongjeon has no answer, the saint's conclusion is quite understandable..

"...Will the church and the saint be able to receive help from the kingdom and empire??"

"Demonism is a religion that has been with the roots of demons. If we can fully accept them, this war will not be a war between humans and demons, but a war between the apostate and heretic Demon King's army and the continent. Of course, we are planning ways from the capital to do our best to respond to the operation.."

It was certain that they would come to a conclusion as quickly as possible, as they were not people who wasted their time just discussing tabletop discussions. The problem is that despite such confidence, the situation where Saint Deoni lives is extremely dangerous..

At least we wouldn't have gotten to this point if it weren't for those twisted monsters, but unfortunately, it seems like I'm the only one who can compete with them right now..

"how long can i last?"

"I don't know. The saint's side seems to have concluded that it will take at least 15 days to plan and carry out the plan, and that she can endure until then, but it is still unclear how the variable of the evil spirit's remnants will work.."

If it's long, it's long, if it's short, it's short. Even that will be based on endurance, so damage will continue to occur..

Actually, there is no reason to worry for a long time. It was clear what I had to do to make this situation even a little more advantageous..

"Can I also use the smuggling route used by the informant??"

And it was clear that both Siegfried and Princess Esselua had the same opinion. Princess Esselua seemed strangely relieved when I volunteered to ask a question..

Just as she was about to say something, Siegfried stopped her by raising his hand and spoke to me again with a serious face..

"brother. You know there are no elves and dwarves in the Demon Territory.?"

The specific reason is unknown, but as Siegfried said, two races do not live in the Demon Territory..

It goes beyond just not living there, to the point where there was almost no traffic even when there was no war. I learned from Asilier that although there are other races such as lizardmen, beastmen, and fullings, there are two races in particular that are reluctant to use demon spirits themselves..

Even she doesn't set foot in the demon spirit simply because she doesn't feel like it. There was one reason why Siegfried was mentioning that fact now..

"If my brother goes there..."

Asilier must remain here. The fact that there are elves wandering around in her demon territory means that rumors spread quickly and attract her attention..

Since he was a guy who had learned something from Entyre's injury, I couldn't help but laugh when I saw that he was worried about something happening to Asilier while I was away..

"are you okay. I'm more worried about getting hit on the back because I'm going alone.."

◈

Fortunately, Asilier's back smashing, which I was worried about, didn't happen..

"What can I say... After it was confirmed that L.D. was a hero, I think it became strangely easier to accept this situation.."

Asilier, who reacted in bewilderment even though she said it herself, simply advised her to be careful..

There was little chance that Asilier wouldn't be able to get his way, but since Siegfried volunteered to take special care to repay my debt for helping Entyre, I don't think anything would happen..

[Master, go again?]

“So it happened. Because you also stand out quite a bit. I'm getting along well with Asilier. Take good care of the dragons too..”

It was a bit unfortunate that I had to leave behind not only my Laika, but also my car, which I had grown fond of, but I had no other choice as I had to travel as secretly as possible to where Saint Deoni was..

“Anyway, try wearing this this time..”

What I put on Laika's neck, whose tail was lowered sullenly, was a makeshift dog collar made by attaching a piece of my sword to a leash I had obtained in moderation..

It was an object created with inspiration from an attempt at autonomous flight with divinity and magical power from the Demon King's army camp to here, and it was clear that if it worked as intended, Laika's difficulty in supplying magical energy would be easily resolved..

[oh...?]

"how is it? I feel something?"

[Maybe it's like that, maybe it's not...?]

hmm. I guess the effect isn't felt right away..

Leaving Laika, who was in good condition after feeding herself with magic, to diligently check her condition, I said goodbye to Asilier and headed to the tent that Esselua had told me about..

Since this was to be done with the help of the Empire, quite a lot of preparations were made, and one of them was to prepare a double to let people know at the slightest delay that I had disappeared from here. I thought it was a pretty good plan because it could both maintain the overall morale of the military and act as a distraction....

"It is an honor to meet the hero who saved the Empire's White Star.."

After learning that it had been done so quickly and neatly in advance that my eyeballs would pop out, I was at a loss for words for a moment..

It was a strange experience. Obviously, after hearing the story today, I decided to move today, but in reality, my double in front of me not only had a similar build, but even his armor was similar in color. If he hadn't discovered that the helmet he was holding in one hand had a similar design to Lu Mingshi's helmet, he would have been wondering for a long time how this happened..

“i look forward to.”

“I will do my best to complete the mission.”

After receiving his greeting and remembering Esmuët, who was eagerly touching and examining my helmet with his small hand, a handsome man with a familiar face appeared behind the knight..

"I never thought I'd see it again like this. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be enough time to have a conversation.."

I thought for a moment what the tall and handsome Marquis of Vende was talking about, and realized that it was an action to remind me of the conversation I thought was just a greeting when returning from the Empire to Itisel, and that he was using the essence of the Empire's technology called a simple gate. I greeted him politely, remembering at the same time that he was doing it..

"Just like last time, I am indebted to you again this time.."

"It doesn't make sense. How can you be indebted to someone who takes the lead in saving the empire and helping the empire?."

The Marquis of Vendet, who was smiling without a hint of arrogance even though he was dripping with charm, showed up holding a simple gate to help me move quickly..

I wondered if it was possible for a person called the Marquis of the Empire to have such light hips, but I belatedly thought that it was worth moving since not only was the time urgent, but I also might be able to shorten the war by successfully creating strife among the demons..

The servants were busy following him, and all the items laid out on the table were for me..

While a variety of materials were displayed one after another as if they had already been prepared for a long time, including an identification card and money for disguised identity, a simple long sword to make me look like an adventurer, a cape, and a bag, the thing that caught my eye the most was, surprisingly, what was written on my fake ID. It was an alias..

"This is an item that the princess herself ordered. It seems like you are very interested in me.."

"...I'm just so sorry."

Ethan Ravischer.

In the Empire, when I declared a duel to a Rudra bastard or something, that was the only answer I could give as I looked at the identity card that I had made by simply mixing the names of my parents, who I had said once and never said before..

Judging from the nuance of his speech, it seemed like he had already guessed everything, but the Marquis of Vendet only lightly shrugged his shoulders and did not try to dig in or dig further..

While he was making simple preparations to open the gate, I learned from an unknown person, whether an acolyte or soldier, what to be careful about before crossing into the demon realm, as well as brief personal information and passwords for the people I would need to contact afterwards..

I handed over a map and a notebook containing various information, but I asked him to memorize it as quickly as possible and then burn it. As he left, the Marquis of Vendet, who confirmed that I had gathered all the items, nodded and spread his arms..

"Since you've already heard everything, I won't say anything else..”

With a gesture of his hand, the cube split apart and a huge amount of mana spewed out..

Although this alone does not meet the conditions for the gate to operate, it flows out in such a large amount that it is hard to believe that it was perfectly compressed in that small cube, and in combination with the surrounding magic power, the magic is activated..

Having only superficially studied magic, I understood how artistically advanced the Marquis Vendet's cube was, and I couldn't keep my mouth shut until the gate was fully opened and I could see the scenery on the other side..

What brought me back to my senses was the thick scent of the sea wafting beyond the gate..

“I hope you don't have to show off your skills in the tunnels..”

At the same time, a part of the outlaws' territory, which was quite unfamiliar, unfolded before my eyes..
