Ars Goetia – The Boy Called Incompetent Uses 72 Demons To Become Unstoppable

"Is there a Crater Rock Dragon in the crater of this mountain?"

We had come to the base of a large active volcano called Mount Garlatt.

This is the farthest we can come by carriage, so we have to walk from here.

However, Mount Garlatt is a steep mountain.

There's a chance we'll run into demons along the way, and it'll be tough to make it to the top.

"Hey, Valak. Can't you tell us more about where Orobas is in this mountain?"

Even if we make it to the top, it would be a waste of time if Orobas is not there.

I wish I could pinpoint where Orobas was.

"Yes, Orobas is at the top!"

Valak assured me.

Well, it looks like we'll have to climb the mountain anyway.

"Hey, do you think we can climb this mountain by ourselves?"

I asked Crocell and Valak for their opinion.

"In that case, shall I fly up and carry you?"

Crocell spreads her angel wings.

"Can you do that?"

"Yes, I can."

Well, if you have angel wings, you can use them to fly, right?

I hadn't seen Crocell flying around much, so I didn't get that impression.

"But it wouldn't be good if other people saw us, right?"

It would be really bad if it was revealed that I was using a demon.

However, at a glance, Crocell looks like an angel, so can we get away with fooling them into thinking I'm using an angel? Hmm, not sure.

"If that's the case, Valak suggests that we split into two groups!"

Valak raised her hand and made a suggestion.

"What do you mean with 'split up'?"

"Well, Valak will carry Norman, while Crocell will scout the surrounding area for people in spirit form. If you're in spirit form, you should be invisible to normal people."

"I see."

So it's only Valak who materializes, while Crocell scouts in spirit form.

This is a mountain that seems to be uninhabited, so Crocell alone should be able to scout it out.

"Then I want to carry Master Norman!"

"The only one who knows the location of Orobas is Valak here. It's more efficient for her to carry Norman."

"That's right......."

The story is settled, and we'll go that way.

"Can you carry me, Valak?"

Valak is a child, smaller than me, so I'm not sure she can carry me.

"I'm a demon, even though I don't look like one. Please don't be too hard on me."

With that, the embodied Valak spreads her angel wings and raises me up in a princess hug.

I'm not in a position to complain, but it's embarrassing to be carried around in a princess hug.

"Come to think of it, when Crocell usually materialized, she didn't have wings."

Now that Valak is materializing, she has wings.

I wondered what the difference was.

"When you materialize, your wings can be retracted."

"That's how it is with Valak!"

It was a very convenient wing.

"I'll go ahead and check if there are people around.", said Clossel, flying through the air.

After checking the surroundings, Crocell made a large circle with her hands in the distance.

I guess that means it's okay.

"Then let's go!"

Valak, holding me in her arms like a princess, also spreads her wings and rises into the sky.

"Whoa!"

It was the first time for me to fly in the sky.

I was amazed at that feeling for the first time.

"How does it feel to move in the sky?"

"It feels good."

"Heh......, I thought so."

Actually, flying is not so bad.

The scenery is great and the wind is nice.

"I'm really grateful to Norman."

"What? Is that so?"

I don't remember doing anything to be grateful for.

"It's about Crocell. Since being summoned by Norman, Crocell has become much healthier. She used to be so sad and gloomy."

"That's true......."

The first impression of Crocell was that she was gloomy.

But now that shadow has completely disappeared.

"I guess falling in love can change your personality."

"What do you mean by love?"

"Oh, I'm not going to tell Norman."

"Huh."

Valak suddenly accelerated.

I can't help but raise my voice.

"There doesn't seem to be any sign of...... anyone."

People are always looking down and checking, but there doesn't seem to be any problem.

Crocell, who was ahead of us, would occasionally signal that everything was fine, so it looked like we were in a good position.
