Boy Who Has Been Reincarnated Twice Spends Peacefully as an S-Rank Adventurer, ~ I who was a Sage an

So, what do we do now?　This country is going to be in a lot of trouble if we keep this up...

Although they captured the demon, Liliela-san and the others anxiously blurted out what they should do from now on.

''Even if we tell them to evacuate now, it's going to be difficult, judging from what the demoness said earlier...''

It wouldn't feel right if we had to run away together.

Shall we destroy it?

"Idiot!　If you do that, you don't know what will happen to the magic power that fills this place!

Mina hurriedly stilled Gyro-kun as he raised his weapon.

Precise tools are so precise that you don't know what will happen to them if they do something poorly due to their precision.

What's more, we don't know what will cause this thing that has absorbed the magical power of the Megalo Whale to explode.

But we understand what it's used for.

And fortunately, I had guessed from the scenes I've seen so far that this magic item doesn't have such a complicated structure.

It's all right. The magician taught me the solution.

""What?"

Everyone shouts in surprise at my words.

'The demon said that this magic item is a weapon that can be activated by extracting the magic power of the Megalo Whale. And if it hasn't been activated yet, that means that the extraction of magic power isn't complete yet.

Yeah, right!　All you have to do is manipulate the magic item to stop the extraction of magic power!

Norbu smiles with relief that this will help.

''Kukkukkuk.''

But as if to mock such an air, the demon laughed.

''What's so funny!''

What?　Of course it's strange.　You're supposed to be having a good time!

Coo!

'Gah!　Stop eating!

"Squeak.

I'm sorry, I'll explain it to you in a minute!

Demon, how do you think you're going to flirt with your mofo?

It seems you guys thought you could control this magic weapon, but alas, it doesn't have that function. It was activated once, but in the end, it never stops again!

""What the hell?"

The demon's shocking statement caused everyone to shout in astonishment.

''Of course, this is a weapon!　Hahahahaha!　You'll be sorry!　Awesome!　But this is the fate of you humans!

But you'll die too, won't you?

I say, flicking out the magic item I took from the demon.

"....　

The demon is suddenly silent.

''Ku, ku, ku, ku, hahahahahaha!

But the demon gradually grows a big smile and stares at me.

''Do we have a deal, human?''

This guy's funny.

"No, you can't stop me from making a deal, can you?　Then what's the point of making a deal?

But I'd like to hear what you're going to say for a minute.

'Well, wait. Take my offer and I'll help you guys alone.

Hmm, what's a good idea?

The transition magic item I took away was probably for one person, and even if it wasn't, it would still be able to operate without this magician.

''There's a gate at the back here. With it, we can transfer everyone here to a safe place.

""What?

Everyone shouted in surprise at the demon's suggestion.

'I'm the only one who knows how to operate the device. And to activate the device, you need my magic wavelength. If I say this much, you understand what I mean?

So they're saying we should leave the people of this country to fend for ourselves.

We don't have a choice.　If we can't deactivate the device, we have no choice but to run. No need to feel guilty about abandoning the people of this country. What matters is that we survive on our own.

Huh!

Mr. Norbu gritted his teeth and glared at the demon.

But he didn't know what to say to that, and he couldn't spin his words.

Everyone else is similar, they want to hurl angry words at the demon, but are unable to do so.

After all, in this situation, no matter what, the people of this country can't help, and the only thing they can do is to survive.

Anger, guilt and guilt were robbing everyone of their words.

''Hahahahaha!　Yes, that's it!　I'm the prettiest human being in the world anyway!　Then be honest with yourself about your desires!　Now, that's why you're going to let me go!

With a look of supreme amusement on his face, the demon demands an answer from us.

'No.'

But I refused.

It's true, isn't it... what?

It seems that he didn't expect to be refused, and the demon widens his eyes with a start.

It's not just the demon, everyone is also surprised.

"Nonsense!　Are you trying to die?　You're going to die as well as the rest of you if you don't do something about it!

That's not a problem. No problem, because we're going to dismantle this magic item.

...What?

The demon looks at me with a scowling face.

''Eh?　Wait, what?　How can you do that?

Mina asks me with a look of disbelief on her face.

It is possible. It's just a simple magic item, no matter how big it is.

That's right, this magic item is a device that absorbs the target's magic power, stores it to the limit and causes a huge explosion.

That is to say, in effect, the core of this magic item could be said to be only the function of absorbing magic power.

''That's why if you interfere with the mechanism that sucks magic power from this magic item, it won't be able to suck out any more magic power.

Bullshit. I can't do that!　Even our grimoire engineer was busy trying to find a way to activate this thing he'd discovered!

Hmmm... Didn't the demons make this by themselves?

I'm not sure if they are reusing things that were made by humans or demons in the past if they were excavated.

Then let's start analyzing it. Everyone keep an eye on the demon.

Oh, oh, no, I'll take care of it, brother!

When I left him to it, Gyro-kun replied cheerfully, nodding vigorously that everyone else should be left in charge.

'Then let's try it,'

I investigate the flow of magic power of magic items around me.

I'm going to confirm where the magic power comes from and where it will eventually flow through to.

I had that feeling from the first time I saw it, but the magic power was still moving upwards.

And its destination was probably.........

I used my flight magic to go up from the center of the spiral staircase and still rose past the entrance.

''So this is the core that builds up the magic power.

It existed on the ceiling of the tower, at the very top.

There was a large core stone embedded in the ceiling.

''This is a magical power accumulation device that uses a huge nuclear stone. If you do something about it, this magic item won't explode.''

Let's start by removing the risk of an explosion.

I take out the necessary demonic materials from the magic bag and start working on them.

"I'll use Megalo Whale's fry beard as wiring, and some Kraken ink to add a little bit of magic to the formula...

While remembering the memories of my previous life, I assembled a magic power release device to block the activities of the magic items.

The surrounding magic pathway is a very simple structure, so it's easy not to make the device so complicated.

And it took me about ten minutes to complete the device.

'Alright, we've done it!　Now I just need to put this on here and then.............okay.

I attach the completed magic power release device to the magic pathway leading to the core stone.

The magic power that was supposed to be poured in from the Megalo Whale doesn't flow into the core stone, but instead begins to be released from the magic power release device attached to the middle of the device.

'Yes, it's working properly!　That's enough to stop the explosion.

After confirming the normal operation of the device, I then detach the nuclear stone from the magic pathway.

Even if I remove the magic release device, no more magic power will be poured into the nuclear stone.

''Let's just collect this one so it won't be misused.

I collect the nuclear stone that is infused with the magical power of the Megalo Whale into the magic bag.

However, a nuclear stone filled with magical power is too dangerous to sell.

''Everyone, we've successfully stopped the explosion!

I go downstairs again and tell everyone that the demolition is done.

"That's my brother!

It's amazing what you can really do.

'I can't believe you can dismantle a magic item from a demon.

Common sense doesn't apply to Lex.

But that's Mr. Lex, isn't it?

I wonder if that's a compliment?

What?　I can't do that!　What the hell did you do!

The demon twisted his face in astonishment at the impossibility.

''No, I simply built a device to release magic power.

"A device that releases magic?

Mina nodded her head.

I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work. It's a feature that prevents magic items from being overloaded and destroyed, which is something that most magic items have. And since this magic item was intended to be stored in order to explode, of course there is no such device.

So you put the device in place so the tower wouldn't blow up.

Yes, the nuclear stone the magic power that was originally supposed to be poured into the magic stone is now held back in front of it and released in another direction, so it won't be pouring magic power into the magic stone anymore.

And by the way, we already got the nuke.

I don't believe it. Who the hell do you think you are, and what kind of a person could possibly create such a thing?

The demon looks at me with a stunned face.

Whoa, isn't this your chance to say that line from Rygaard?

I'm just an adventurer.

" " " " " " " " "No, it's a lie.

Coo!

Why are they so quick to deny it?

Anyway, the tower will no longer be able to serve its purpose. The only thing left to do is to destroy this device, and then it won't be able to absorb the magical power of the Megalo Whale.

If this is the case, Megalo Whale will continue to absorb magic power all the time.

Even though it's a demon, it's a bit of a pity that it's still being used by someone else.

I remove the device I made earlier that releases magic power, and this time I install it between the magic pathway and the device that absorbs magic power from Megalo Whale.

Now that the magic power absorption device is no longer flowing into the magic power absorption device, I'd like to dismantle this one while I still can.

I've been taking apart magic items in the blink of an eye. What are you really?

Mina looks at me dumbfounded, but anyone can take it apart," she says.

Even a little boy can take anything apart if you give him the tools.

No, that's not a good analogy.

Do you think so?

I dismantle the devices one after another and throw them into the magic bag.

It's nice to get valuable materials for free.

It's a gate in this room. Well, this one was also powered by the magical power of the Megalo Whale.

Maybe the demon who had previously summoned the Cursed Viper with the gate was also using the same powerful demon's magical power to power it.

''Let's dismantle this gate as well. The materials might be able to be used for something else.

Then I took some time to dismantle all the devices in the tower.

The magical lights that had already lit up the inside of the tower were gone, and there was no light other than the magical lights on everyone's weapons.

''Let's go outside. We have to destroy this tower as well, and free the Megalo Whale.

Yeah.

We dragged the bound witch out of the tower, and began to dismantle the tower.

Then we began to dismantle the ravaged tower.

MUSH KNUCKLE!

With high-speed vibrating masses of magic around my hands, I cut the tower apart like a saw.

If you use too flashy magic, you'll hurt the body of the megalo whale.

While cutting the tower into pieces of a reasonable size, the tower is dismantled little by little until it reaches the surface of the ground.

I don't cut the part that's biting into my body completely to the other side so as not to damage the flesh, but once I've shaved it down to a certain extent, I use my body strengthening magic to forcibly strip it off.

''Alright, the rest is high healing!　Transfermana!

After removing the tower completely, I cast a recovery spell and magic transfer spell on Megalohoale to recover the wounds and the magic power that was stolen.

I'm not sure if the magic power will ever recover completely because of this huge body, but there's no need to worry about it being taken away, so it will slowly recover.

The Megalo Whale squeals loudly.

Maybe he realized that the magic item that had put his life in jeopardy was gone.

''Whoa!''

The ground shakes loudly with a wobble.

What is this?　What happened?

The Megalo Whale is on the move.

Megri-san was right, Megalo Whale's body seemed to start moving.

''Huh?　Hey, is the land far enough away?

Liliella was right, the real land that could be seen beyond the Megalo Whale's massive body was slowly moving away.

''Everyone, fly and evacuate immediately!　If we don't, we'll be out in the open sea with Megalo Whale!

Okay, okay!

Everyone hurriedly activated their flight magic and jumped up.

Oops, we'll have to collect the demons too.

From the air above, it seemed that we had already moved far away from land, and the coast looked quite far away.

''Look, the Megalo Whales are going back.

At Megri's words, we all looked down and saw the fry swimming around the Megalo Whale.

Are they spoiled by the way they occasionally come in contact with their bodies, or are they happy that their parents' lives have been saved?

'I knew that magic item was the reason they were brought to land.

Take care!　Don't get caught by a demon again!

Don't mess with people!

Gyro-kun and the others call out loudly to Megalo Whale.

Already in their minds, it seems that Megalo Whale is only seen as a victim of a dangerous and huge demon, who was badly hurt by a demon.

It was then. Suddenly the Megalo Whale cried out in an unbelievably loud voice, and then let out an extremely loud squirt.

''Geez!　Why are you attacking us?

"We saved you!

We hurriedly evacuated to a safe zone where the tide could not reach the Megalo Whale.

The tide is blowing up so fast that it's pouring huge amounts of seawater and bone rock into the surrounding waters.

It's lucky that there is no damage to the land because it's a long way out to sea.

The tide of the Megalo Whale was still blowing, and a large amount of seawater was glistening and glistening.

'It's beautiful from a distance, isn't it?

Liliella watches the glow of the tide in a dumbfounded tone of voice.

'Indeed, it's very beautiful from a safe distance.

''But it's kind of oddly long.

For some reason, it seems like Megalo Whale's tide spewing has been going on for a long time. The tidal spout earlier wasn't this long, and it wasn't the same in my memory of my previous life.

'Something glowed.'

What?

I looked at the sky at Megri's words, and sure enough, something glittering was rising in the tide.

And the soles that have reached the top of the tide are........

It flew at us?

Yeah, he was coming for us.

Yo, get out of the way!

Jairo's scream was followed by everyone else's.

We all literally flew away, and Solé flew past where we were and fell into the ocean surface.

Wrapped in glitter and glitter.

''That wasn't a bone rock!

Curious about the fall, I swooped down and chased after it.

"Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa!

I can hear the screams of the magician who was holding on to me, but I'll ignore that.

And as I caught up with the falling sleeves, I saw something amazing.

''This is a huge gem!''

That's right, it's a jewel the color of the transparent ocean as it jumps out of the tide of the Megalo Whale.

And it wasn't a big one. It was literally a huge gemstone in the rough, even bigger than my height.

'Could it be a thank you from Megalo Whale?

What an idea came to mind, but is that indeed too much to think about?

Well, it's probably more romantic to think of it as a gift.

I gently stowed the giant gemstone in the magic bag.

"Thank you, Megalo Whale.

As if in response to my thanks, the Megalo Whale, which had shrunk far off on the horizon, let out another yell.
