A few days after entering the Demon Lord's Domain, Amako saw a prescience.

Despite the fact that there was not much time between the previous prophecies, the content of the prophecies that I saw was almost entirely about me.

I don't know how I was able to see the highlighted prognosis, but it reminded me of what it was like after I left Luxvis. At that time, he had seen that I was going to be stabbed in the stomach.

In fact, it was a premonition that Nea was about to commit suicide.

Anyway, Amako told me about the contents of the prediction, but she seemed somewhat awkward. Maybe they have a problem that we can't tell them.

Amako herself tries to behave normally, but I'm worried.

 

"——— guys, monsters are attacking!"

"Gru!!"

 

The day after Amako saw the prescience.

As we continue our journey to become the Demon King, we have been attacked by a demon for the sixth time.

The flying dragon and the glow wolf tormented many knights in the last war.

And then there's the emaciated red wolf that the glow wolf can follow—the Hang Wolf.

 

"Indeed, the Demon King Territory has so many demons!"

"Anyway! Let's get rid of them all!!"

 

Kazuki manipulates the magic bullet with his palm wrapped in a gauntlet and directs it towards the demons.

The magic bullet, which has the power to annihilate unique to light magic, rushes to the monster while maintaining the hardness of an iron ball, forcing it to retreat.

 

"Me too!"

 

A senior who pulled out a sword wearing a shiden moves at high speed and puts a sword into the demons as they pass by.

Unable to react and landing behind the demons who were facing in the wrong direction, the next moment the senior snapped his sword while dressing up, a powerful electric shock shot from the slashed point and burned the monsters.

 

"What's that, it's cool."

 

I was watching the movements of such seniors in the back, and I muttered such an impression.

Senpai and Kazuki were fighting the attacking monsters in the form of a vanguard and me and Leona Mr./Ms. were fighting in the rearguard, but with the two of them in the vanguard, it seemed that I and Leona Ms.'s hands were unnecessary.

 

"No matter how many times I see it, I still think that the power of Suzune and Kazuki is tremendous."

 

Mr./Ms., who had unfolded her ice sword around her, said as the two of them fought.

 

"It's only been a short time since I got the armor of the hero, but I'm almost familiar with it."

"It's true that they should be very different from my gauntlets, but they already treat me like my own hands and feet...... Oh?"

 

I'm worried about the physical strength of my seniors......

It seems that it takes a lot of energy to continue such movements in a row, so I predict where she will move and throw a healing magic bullet.

Perhaps the senior also noticed the healing magic bullet approaching immediately, and he sliced through the magic bullet with the returning sword and bathed his whole body in the magic of healing magic.

 

"Usato-kun! Thank you!"

"It's dangerous, so don't look around!"

 

As I pay attention to the seniors waving in the middle of the monsters, I notice that Leona Mr./Ms. and Nea on her shoulder are looking at me as if they are pulling back slightly.

 

"No, I think you're pretty terrible because you can see Suzune's movements now, right?"

"They say I'm just getting used to it, but I think it's weird to get used to it......

 

No, it doesn't change the fact that I can't follow it completely with my eyes.

 

"Grua"

"Hmm? Bullin, Ferm, are you protecting Amako properly?"

"Why do I have to babysit?"

"Ferm, don't treat me like a child."

 

I smile wryly back at Bullin, who nods behind me, and Amako and Ferm, who are glaring at me.

Bullyn and Amako are searching for the enemy, and they are alerted to the approaching powerful monsters.

Ferm is protecting Amako with Bullin.

Assimilating with me gives you more ways to fight, but right now it's better to have more manpower, so I feel like Ferm is protecting Amako.

 

"———, Guru!"

"Mr./Ms. Usato, Leona, a monster is coming from the right!"

 

Immediately, it seems that another monster from the group in front of you is coming.

With a thud, thud, the bushes shake, and something approaches.

 

「…… Ahh

 

Perhaps she had confirmed the appearance by prescience, but Amako looked at me and made such a voice.

As I was anxious about his reaction, a monster appeared as he approached.

Nuu, and a humanoid monster about three meters tall appeared through the bushes. His muscular body and the club in his hand——、

 

"Ogre ......"

"Oh, it's Usato."

"You guys, get ready for later, okay?"

 

He looks at the ogre as he vows revenge on Nea and Ferm, who called him his servant in unison.

As far as I can confirm, there seems to be not just one, but three.

 

"Mr./Ms. Leona, I'm going."

"I don't mind that, but are you okay?"

"Don't worry, there are a few things I want to try."

 

He didn't take his eyes off the ogre as he replied, and then Ferm called out.

 

"Usato, should I assimilate too?"

「…… No, you have to stay here. There may be another monster coming."

"Okay."

 

Unfold the gauntlet on your right arm and head towards the ogre.

As I stopped in front of the three ogres, weaving the magic of the bouncy from the gauntlet, the ogre, which was more than a head taller, roared and stood in front of me.

 

"Is it a one-on-one game?"

"Guy ......"

"Oh, this is just a lie, you look weak."

 

Dents normally.

Well, if you're sobbing, that's fine.

Wrap your right palm with elastic magic and take a stance.

 

"Come on!"

"Gaa!!"

 

A club that is swung down by force.

In response, I put my right hand on the cudder.

At that moment, with a banging sound, the swinging club is flipped and deflected to the ground.

 

"Huh?"

"If I had to name it, it would be 'Healing Ball'...... I wonder."

 

Defensive techniques by granting resiliency.

It is a technique that prevents attacks with minimal force by repelling attacks with elastic magic power attached to the hand.

This made it possible to play attacks with less force than with brute force.

I beckon provocatively to the ogre who looks at me with a club that is dumbfounded to the ground.

 

"Come on, come on!"

"Gaaaaaaaaaaa

 

- Perhaps her head has come to provocation so much, and she continuously slams the club that she has swung up by force.

Nea responded to the stormy barrage of attacks, "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh He screams pitifully, but calmly plays the club with his right hand.

 

"Ga, huh, huh......! Gaa!"

"Nhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

 

Gasping for breath, a fist in agony.

In response, he catches the fist with his right palm and repels it as it is.

I caught sight of the ogre that was limped by the impact of being shot, and I launched an attack.

 

"Magical Turning"

 

The elastic magic power is transferred from the right arm to the toe of the right foot.

He stomps on the elastic magic as much as he can, and by using the recoil, he accelerates at once and dives into the bosom of the ogre.

 

"Gee!?"

"It's late!"

 

As it is, he returns the magic to his right fist and slams a vertical fist that pushes it into the ogre's torso.

 

"——Healing Elasticity Fist"

"Gee!?"

 

The ogre is blown backwards and falls to the ground, engulfing two of his companions.

The ogre pressed his abdomen with a startled face, but he looked at me with frightened eyes, perhaps realizing that there was no pain.

The Healing Elasticity Fist is a healing punch that focuses on blowing away.

It's less powerful because of the bounciness and the strength of my brawns, but it's good at making opponents falter, and depending on the situation, I can punch them away and force them to end the fight.

 

「…… I think this will work in real life."

"Ga, hee, hee!?"

"Hmm?"

 

Seeing me take a stance again, the ogre who had been fighting earlier screamed in fear.

For a short time, the terrified ogre returned to the forest with two of his companions.

 

"There's still something I want to try, but for now, I'm going to fight it off, Nea."

"You're probably the only person who frightened an ogre with almost nothing but hand-to-hand combat, before and after, ...... you're really ...... monster."

 

He was an opponent I had beaten once in Mialak, and it wasn't too much of a struggle.

Moreover, the other party was insulting me.

Nea glared at me with jito eyes, and spread her wings wide, perhaps remembering the technique I performed earlier.

 

"More than that! First of all, please explain the technique you just had! Why don't you explain to me that you're fighting with me!? What's that!!"

"The outburst of system reinforcement - a new technology following the system blasting, the addition of elasticity, Nea, my technique will evolve to another level."

"It's crazy!"

 

Say that much?

In the meantime, Senpai and Kazuki seem to have succeeded in repelling the monster in front.

After confirming this, I returned to Leona Mr./Ms. and the others, appeasing Nea, who had become frustrated, and was greeted by Leona Mr./Ms. who looked impressed, and Amako and Ferm, who were blatantly pulling.

 

"You can't use elasticity in that way, it's a skill that only you can handle if you're good at fighting and reflexes."

"It's also a technology that compensates for the fact that the explosive system reinforcement consumes a lot of magical power, and as expected, the outburst is more powerful because it can produce a shockwave, but it's easier to use."

 

It's more like a system blast of offense and elasticity of defense.

 

"Leona, don't praise me too much, this guy is going to get on with it and make another weird move."

"Finally, the ogre is no longer in the teeth, even though I sank it with one blow before."

"Aren't you okay with being an ogre now?"

"Grua"

 

Hey, little animals.

Occasionally, Leona Mr./Ms. is complimenting me.

 

●

 

Once we have defeated the monster, we will continue on the roadless road again.

The Demon Lord's Territory is a place with many dense forests with trees, just like the Land of Beastmen, and there are no graded roads.

Therefore, with Ferm, who has a good understanding of the land, in the lead, Amako and Burlin proceed cautiously while searching for monsters.

 

"I don't want to say too much about it, but the Demon Lord's Territory is a bit of a creepy place."

"Well, it's a place I don't want to come to alone."

 

Kazuki, who was walking nearby, replied to my muttering.

The trees overhead let in only a few rays of sunlight in the forest, and there is a dark and gloomy atmosphere in the forest.

The trees don't look lush, but they seem to be dead in places.

 

"Is Kazuki not good at horror?"

"Well, it's not like I can't see it, but I'm not willing to see it. What about Usato?"

"Absolutely not, because the thing I hate the most is ghosts."

 

Ghosts are really impossible.

I used to be a ghost denier, but when I found out that ghosts existed in the case of Samariar, I became even more scared.

That's how bad I am at ghosts, and I can only hope that I don't see them again in the future.

 

"Haha, that's a little surprising, I thought Usato would even punch a ghost away."

"No, if this guy has a substance, I'll punch him, okay? That's what we did in Samaria."

 

When Nea the Owl said that, Kazuki said, "Seriously!" His eyes widen in surprise.

Technically, it was a soul bound by a curse, but that would also fall into the category of ghosts.

I smiled and raised my fist.

 

"If you have substance, you can win, because you can beat it."

"You're probably the only one who would hit a ghost......."

 

While Nea is stunned, the barking voice of a demon comes from somewhere in the forest.

In response to the voice, Burlin turns in a certain direction, but quickly turns forward, as if he has decided that there is no immediate danger.

 

"Amako"

"It's okay, I'm not coming here."

 

For the time being, I checked with Amako, but it seems to be okay.

If you let your guard down even a little, you may be surrounded. The Demon King Realm is really troubled by the large number of demons.

 

「…… However, you rarely see demons. I've already entered the Demon Lord's Domain."

"Sure, I can see at least one person, but I only encounter monsters."

 

Kazuki nods at my words.

Maybe it's because Ferm avoids encounters with demons, but I really don't see the demons.

 

"Well, from there, we're kind of like inquisitors, so it's better if we don't run into them, and we don't want to cause any trouble."

"In fact, I wonder how ordinary demon people react when they see humans."

"——I don't think so."

 

As he was talking to Kazuki, Ferm, who was walking in front of him, suddenly replied.

 

"Demon tribes who are not soldiers of the Demon King's army have never seen humans in the first place, because humans rarely set foot here, and even if they do, they will only be eaten by demons."

「…… The fact that I haven't seen many humans is similar to the land of beastmen."

 

When I entered the hidden village, I was stared at strangely.

However, because they are clearly hostile, the demon tribe may be viewed with hostility.

 

"Originally, the demon race was born in a poor land, and the truth is that the forest is not so overgrown, and the demons are not so energetic."

"Does that mean it's not what it used to be?"

 

In response to Kazuki's question, Ferm nods while still looking forward.

 

"It didn't really matter to me, but it seems that the Demon King has improved their lives, and so more and more people are moving to the area around the city where the Demon King is."

"I see, that's why you can't even see the Demon Clan......."

"This is the end of the line, there are a lot of monsters, and most of them have moved to other places."

 

Ferm's words seemed like someone else's problem.

Maybe it's natural given her past, but it seemed a little lonely to me.

…… I might offend you, but I'll take it a step further.

Moving away from Kazuki, he approaches Ferm, who walks in the lead.

 

"What does Ferm think of his hometown?"

「…… I've forgotten about it, but it was a helpless place. Everybody was scared of me as a kid."

"And your parents?"

"Oh, I don't even remember his face now, and I don't care at all."

 

This is a face that cares .......

As far as I can see from his thoughtful face, he must have something to think about.

I thought he agreed, but I wasn't considerate enough.

 

"Well, Ferm--"

 

Just as he was about to call out to Ferm, the demon's roar rang out again.

A voice that is closer than before, but still contains hostility as if it is attacking something.

Along with that, the shrill screams of people are heard.

 

"...... a child's scream?"

 

And you're not alone.

At the sound of several young children's voices, he reflexively turns to Ferm while pulling his hood over his eyes.

 

"Ferm, assimilate!"

"Oh, oh!"

"Senpai!!"

"I know! Let's go!!"

 

Like me, my senior also wore a hood and hid the sword of a hero in his robe.

 

"Kazuki! Mr./Ms. Leona! Senpai and I will go first!!"

"Oh, I know! Be careful!!"

 

I, who am fast on my feet, and my seniors go first.

I told Kazuki and the others, and I jumped out of the place and headed to the place where I could hear the screams.

As I was running through the trees, Nea on my shoulder spoke to me curiously.

 

"Usato, it could be a trap like mine, right?"

"The other party must also be a demon."

"Even so, you can't abandon your child!"

"I'll think about the difficult things later!!"

 

There is a possibility that it is a trap, but if it is true, a child who is not even old enough will be eaten by a monster.

If that's the case, there's no way I can ignore it.

Praying for the safety of the Lord of the Voice, who would be at the end of the forest, I and my seniors pushed forward.
